Can I use Sprout Social as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a Sprout Social CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose Sprout Social through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected Sprout Social tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are Sprout Social credentials stored?

Sprout Social credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for Sprout Social MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

Sprout Social CLI for AI Agents

Use the Sprout Social CLI from KosmoKrator to call Sprout Social tools headlessly, return JSON, inspect schemas, and automate workflows from coding agents, scripts, and CI.

Sprout Social CLI Setup

Sprout Social can be configured headlessly with `kosmokrator integrations:configure sproutsocial`.

Install, configure, and verify

# Install KosmoKrator first if it is not available on PATH.
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenCompanyApp/kosmokrator/main/install.sh | bash

# Configure and verify this integration.
kosmokrator integrations:configure sproutsocial --set access_token="$SPROUTSOCIAL_ACCESS_TOKEN" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmokrator integrations:doctor sproutsocial --json
kosmokrator integrations:status --json

Credentials

Authentication type: Manual OAuth token oauth2_manual_token. Configure credentials once, then reuse the same stored profile from scripts, coding CLIs, Lua, and MCP.

Key	Env var	Type	Required	Label
`access_token`	`SPROUTSOCIAL_ACCESS_TOKEN`	Secret `secret`	yes	Access Token
`url`	`SPROUTSOCIAL_URL`	URL `url`	no	API Base URL

Command Patterns

The generic command is stable across every integration. The provider shortcut is shorter for humans.

Generic CLI call

kosmo integrations:call sproutsocial.sproutsocial_list_profiles '{}' --json

Provider shortcut

kosmo integrations:sproutsocial sproutsocial_list_profiles '{}' --json

Discovery

These commands return structured output for coding agents that need to inspect capabilities before choosing a function.

Discovery commands

kosmo integrations:docs sproutsocial --json
kosmo integrations:docs sproutsocial.sproutsocial_list_profiles --json
kosmo integrations:schema sproutsocial.sproutsocial_list_profiles --json
kosmo integrations:search "Sprout Social" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json

Automation Contexts

The same configured command surface works in these environments. The command does not change unless the host wrapper, credentials, or permissions change.

CI Run integration calls from CI jobs with JSON output, explicit credentials, and predictable exit status. Cron Jobs Schedule repeatable integration workflows from cron while keeping credentials in KosmoKrator config. Shell Scripts Call integration functions from shell scripts with stable JSON input and output. Headless Automation Use KosmoKrator as a non-interactive integration runtime for local automations and wrappers. Coding Agents Let coding agents discover schemas and execute integration functions through CLI commands or MCP.
