Get a new Upload-Post user from install to their first published or scheduled post. Check the connection, list profiles and connected social accounts, hand over a one-click link to connect TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, X and the rest, then offer a first post. Use when the user first installs the plugin, asks how to get started or how to connect a social network, says the plugin is not working, when no account is connected, or runs /upload-post:setup.

## From README

Upload-Post The goal is the user's first post, not a checklist. Run the checks quietly, stop only where something is missing, and fix it with them before moving on. Connection Call getaccountinfo. It is the cheapest call: it validates the session and returns the account and plan state. It works: move to step 2 without comment. The tools are missing or it returns an auth error: Upload-Post is not connected yet. Tell the user how to connect it where they are: Claude.ai or the desktop app (including Cowork): Customize → Connectors → Upload-Post → Connect. Claude Code: run /mcp, select upload-post and choose Authenticate. If upload-post is not listed, the plugin may be disabled: check /plugin and restart Claude Code. A browser tab opens on app.upload-post.com; they log in or sign up (free plan, no card) and approve. Then call getaccountinfo again. Network error: a proxy or VPN may block mcp.upload-post.com.
