Automate Pinterest with Windsurf
Pinterest is the only platform here shaped for a tall 2:3 image, and the only one that will take a 32 MB one.

}Windsurf takes Antwork as a config snippet. It is the only client here where you edit the raw MCP configuration by hand rather than clicking or running anything.
Connect it
- 01Open the raw MCP configSettings, then MCP servers, then Edit raw config. Windsurf keeps its servers in one JSON object rather than adding them one at a time.
- 02Paste the snippet inside mcpServersDrop it in alongside anything already there. Only the antwork entry is new; nothing else in the file needs touching.
- 03Authorize, then connect the social accountThe first tool call opens an OAuth consent screen in your browser. Approve it, then ask Windsurf to connect your account.
What you can say once Pinterest is connected
“Write the description for this Pinterest pin so it gets found in search.”
“Turn this infographic into a Pinterest pin and schedule it for next Tuesday.”
“Take these four images and make them four separate Pinterest pins.”
“Which of my Pinterest pins is getting the most saves?”
What is different about Pinterest
Only hereTwo by three
The pin ratio is 2:3 — taller than Instagram’s 4:5 and unlike anything else Antwork posts to. A square crop will publish, but it will not look like a pin next to the ones around it.
Thirty two megabytes for one image
The largest single image any platform here accepts, four times what Instagram allows. A detailed chart or infographic survives the upload without being flattened.
One pin is one thing
A pin holds one image or one video, never a set. Hand the agent a batch and it makes separate pins rather than building a carousel Pinterest will not take.
The description is read by search, not by scrollers
Eight hundred characters, and Pinterest indexes them. The agent writes the description to be found later rather than to be read in the moment, which is the opposite of how it writes everywhere else.
Questions
- Do I need an API key to connect Windsurf?
- No. Antwork connects over OAuth — you approve a consent screen in the browser and you are done. There is no key to generate or paste into a URL, which is how most social MCP servers handle it.
- Do I need a paid account?
- No. Your first two connected accounts are free forever, with unlimited posts and workspaces, and there is no plan gate on MCP access.
- Will Windsurf post without showing me first?
- Not unless you ask it to. Drafting and publishing are two separate steps: the agent writes, renders the post card, and only publishes when you confirm.
- Does the writing sound like AI?
- Antwork hands the agent that account's recent posts, along with how each performed, and the agent writes to match them. On Pinterest that includes writing to the length the format rewards, up to 800 characters.
Never leave Windsurf to post again.
One command, one consent screen, and Pinterest is something you can just ask for.
