Install & setup

1. Install the plugin

In Claude Code, add the marketplace and install the plugin:

/plugin marketplace add trysocialcue/socialcue /plugin install socialcue@socialcue /reload-plugins

2. Set up your brands

Run the guided onboarding — it drafts a brand profile from your website, picks platforms (Reddit-first), and checks the browser connection.

/socialcue-setup

3. Discover opportunities

Kick off a discovery run. It drives your own dedicated, logged-in Chrome profile, scores conversations, and writes ranked opportunities with drafted replies to your local store.

/socialdiscovery

Open the local dashboard any time to review the queue (discovery runs also open it automatically):

node "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/lib/cli.js" bridge open # serves the dashboard on 127.0.0.1

4. Activate Pro

After you start your 14-day free trial, we email you an account token right away — Pro works for the whole trial. Connect it once — the plugin then fetches a fresh, offline-verified license key roughly monthly, for as long as your subscription (or trial) is active:

node "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/lib/cli.js" license connect scacct_your_token_here

Or paste the token into the License panel of the dashboard. That's it — assisted posting unlocks.

Posting responsibly

Social Cue finds the right conversations; what you say in them is yours. Drafts are scaffolds — edit them into your own words before posting, especially on Hacker News, whose guidelines prohibit AI-generated comments. On Reddit, follow each community's self-promotion norms (the usual rule of thumb: at most 1 in 10 of your posts mentions your product). The scoring brain is tuned to steer you this way; one genuinely useful reply beats five mediocre ones everywhere.

How activation stays private

The token is the only thing your machine sends us, and only to ask for a new key. Keys are Ed25519-signed and verified entirely offline by the plugin — no page content, brands, or opportunities ever leave your machine. If your subscription lapses, the plugin just stops fetching new keys and returns to free discovery.

Lost your token?
