From an idea to a published story.
An AI-connected publishing system for YouTube and Instagram. I built the dashboard, API, hosted MCP server and the workers behind every publishing job.
Publishing from an AI client is more than an upload call. The user needs to connect the right account, understand what will happen, and follow a job that continues after the request has finished. Those states need to make sense in a dashboard as well as through MCP tools.
I built Pushwing from scratch: the React/TypeScript dashboard, API, hosted MCP server, shared services, provider integrations and background workers. My frontend work covers account connections, publishing jobs, usage and activity.
Conceptual map of the implemented components. Select a step to explore it; this is not a live publishing request.
OAuth connects a provider account. The React dashboard exposes account-connection state.
A dashboard/API request or an MCP tool invokes the publishing workflow through shared services.
PostgreSQL-backed pg-boss jobs and background workers perform the asynchronous provider work.
Publishing-job, usage and activity interfaces expose the work to the user, supported by audit logging.
I used TanStack Query for dashboard data and an OpenAPI-generated API client, alongside reusable interface components.
Account connections and publishing jobs are changing server state. A typed client keeps the API contract explicit; query-based data handling gives those screens a consistent foundation.
The dashboard/API and MCP tools use a shared service layer for account, media, publishing-job and provider operations.
A user can enter through a visual interface or an AI client. Shared services put the core publishing behaviour behind both entry points.
I implemented PostgreSQL-backed jobs with pg-boss, provider integrations, OAuth, token-refresh workers and audit logging.
The frontend needs a job to follow, rather than tying the whole experience to one long-running HTTP request. Usage and activity views make the background work understandable.
The public product and existing walkthrough are available below. Pushwing is in early access: YouTube uploads remain private while API review is pending, and Instagram access is invite-only. No adoption or performance benchmark is claimed here.
