With its recent AI makeover, it can do more than just help you write code. You can connect your applications to it and let LLMs automate many of the mundane tasks in your workflow. In this guide, I will explain how to connect Facebook with VS Code in the most secure and robust way possible via Composio. ## Also integrate Facebook with - [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/chatgpt) - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/codex) - [Cursor](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/cursor) - [OpenCode](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/opencode) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/crew-ai) ## TL;DR ### Why use Composio? Composio provides: - Access to 1,000+ managed apps from a single MCP endpoint. This makes it convenient for agents to run cross-app workflows. - Programmatic tool calling. Allows LLMs to write its code in a remote workbench to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling. - Large tool response handling outside the LLM context. This minimizes context bloat from large tool responses. - Dynamic just-in-time access to thousands of tools across hundreds of apps. Composio loads the tools your agent needs, so LLMs are not overwhelmed by tools they do not need. ## Connect Facebook to VS Code ### Integrate Facebook MCP with VS Code ### 1. Install with one click Click the button below to add Composio to VS Code. You will be prompted to authorize. This requires VS Code 1.99+ with GitHub Copilot. [+Install in VS Code](vscode:mcp/install?%7B%22name%22%3A%22composio%22%2C%22type%22%3A%22http%22%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fconnect.composio.dev%2Fmcp%22%7D) ### 2. Or add manually Open or create .vscode/mcp.json in your project root and add the following configuration: ```bash { "servers": { "composio": { "type": "http", "url": "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp" } } } ``` ## What is the Facebook MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Facebook MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Facebook Page account. It provides structured and secure access to your Facebook Pages, so your agent can perform actions like publishing posts, managing comments, uploading media, and handling page roles on your behalf. - Automated content publishing: Have your agent create new posts, photo posts, or video posts directly to your Facebook Page, keeping your audience engaged without manual effort. - Media management: Effortlessly upload photos to existing albums or create new albums for organized visual storytelling on your Page. - Interactive engagement: Let your agent add reactions, post comments, or reply to comments, fostering genuine interaction with your followers. - Page moderation and cleanup: Ask your agent to delete unwanted comments or posts, helping you keep your Facebook Page professional and on-brand. - Page team management: Assign tasks or roles to users for your Facebook Page, streamlining collaboration and access control. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `FACEBOOK_ADD_PHOTOS_TO_ALBUM` | Add Photos to Album | Adds photos to an existing facebook album. note: currently adds one photo at a time. for true batch upload, use facebook's batch api endpoint directly. | | `FACEBOOK_ADD_REACTION` | Add Reaction | Adds a specific reaction (like, love, wow, etc.) to a facebook post or comment. | | `FACEBOOK_ASSIGN_PAGE_TASK` | Assign Page Task | Assigns tasks/roles to a user for a specific facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_CREATE_COMMENT` | Create Comment | Creates a comment on a facebook post or replies to an existing comment. | | `FACEBOOK_CREATE_PHOTO_ALBUM` | Create Photo Album | Creates a new photo album on a facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_CREATE_PHOTO_POST` | Create Photo Post | Creates a photo post on a facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_CREATE_POST` | Create Post | Creates a new post on a facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_CREATE_VIDEO_POST` | Create Video Post | Creates a video post on a facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_DELETE_COMMENT` | Delete Comment | Deletes a facebook comment. | | `FACEBOOK_DELETE_POST` | Delete Post | Deletes a facebook page post. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_COMMENT` | Get Comment | Retrieves details of a specific facebook comment. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_COMMENTS` | Get Comments | Retrieves comments from a facebook post or comment (for replies). | | `FACEBOOK_GET_CONVERSATION_MESSAGES` | Get Conversation Messages | Retrieves messages from a specific conversation. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_MESSAGE_DETAILS` | Get Message Details | Retrieves details of a specific message sent or received by the page. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_PAGE_CONVERSATIONS` | Get Page Conversations | Retrieves a list of conversations between users and the page. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_PAGE_DETAILS` | Get Page Details | Fetches details about a specific facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_PAGE_INSIGHTS` | Get Page Insights | Retrieves analytics and insights for a facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_PAGE_PHOTOS` | Get Page Photos | Retrieves photos from a facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_PAGE_POSTS` | Get Page Posts | Retrieves posts from a facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_PAGE_ROLES` | Get Page Roles | Retrieves a list of people and their tasks/roles on a facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_PAGE_VIDEOS` | Get Page Videos | Retrieves videos from a facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_POST` | Get Post | Retrieves details of a specific facebook post. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_POST_INSIGHTS` | Get Post Insights | Retrieves analytics and insights for a specific facebook post. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_POST_REACTIONS` | Get Post Reactions | Retrieves reactions (like, love, wow, etc.) for a facebook post. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_SCHEDULED_POSTS` | Get Scheduled Posts | Retrieves scheduled and unpublished posts for a facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_GET_USER_PAGES` | Get User Pages | Retrieves a list of pages the user manages, including tasks and access tokens. | | `FACEBOOK_LIKE_POST_OR_COMMENT` | Like Post or Comment | Likes a facebook post or comment. | | `FACEBOOK_MARK_MESSAGE_SEEN` | Mark Message Seen | Marks a user's message as seen by the page. | | `FACEBOOK_PUBLISH_SCHEDULED_POST` | Publish Scheduled Post | Publishes a previously scheduled or unpublished facebook post immediately. | | `FACEBOOK_REMOVE_PAGE_TASK` | Remove Page Task | Removes a user's tasks/access from a specific facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_RESCHEDULE_POST` | Reschedule Post | Changes the scheduled publish time of an unpublished facebook post. | | `FACEBOOK_SEND_MEDIA_MESSAGE` | Send Media Message | Sends a media message (image, video, audio, or file) from the page to a user. | | `FACEBOOK_SEND_MESSAGE` | Send Message | Sends a text message from the page to a user via messenger. | | `FACEBOOK_TOGGLE_TYPING_INDICATOR` | Toggle Typing Indicator | Shows or hides the typing indicator for a user in messenger. | | `FACEBOOK_UNLIKE_POST_OR_COMMENT` | Unlike Post or Comment | Removes a like from a facebook post or comment. | | `FACEBOOK_UPDATE_COMMENT` | Update Comment | Updates an existing facebook comment. | | `FACEBOOK_UPDATE_PAGE_SETTINGS` | Update Page Settings | Updates settings for a specific facebook page. | | `FACEBOOK_UPDATE_POST` | Update Post | Updates an existing facebook page post. | | `FACEBOOK_UPLOAD_PHOTO` | Upload Photo | Uploads a photo file directly to a facebook page. supports local file upload up to 10mb. | | `FACEBOOK_UPLOAD_PHOTOS_BATCH` | Upload Photos Batch | Uploads multiple photo files in batch to a facebook page or album. uses facebook's batch api for efficient multi-photo upload. maximum 50 photos per batch. | | `FACEBOOK_UPLOAD_VIDEO` | Upload Video | Uploads a video file directly to a facebook page. supports local file upload. for large videos (>100mb), uses resumable upload. | ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server -

Connect Calendar to turn threads into scheduled meetings automatically. - Connect Slack or Teams to post summaries, approvals, and alerts where your team works. - Connect Notion, Linear, Jira, or Asana to convert requests into tickets, tasks, and docs. - Connect Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive to fetch, file, and share attachments without manual steps. - Connect HubSpot or Salesforce to log customer context, update records, and draft follow-ups. Start with one workflow you do repeatedly, then keep adding apps as you find new handoffs. With everything behind a single MCP endpoint, your agent can coordinate multiple tools safely and reliably in one conversation. ## How to build Facebook MCP Agent with another framework - [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/chatgpt) - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/codex) - [Cursor](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/cursor) - [OpenCode](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/opencode) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/facebook/framework/crew-ai) ## Related Toolkits - [Reddit](https://composio.dev/toolkits/reddit) - Reddit is a social news platform with thriving user-driven communities (subreddits).

With a standalone Facebook MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Facebook tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Facebook and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint. ### Can I use Tool Router MCP with VS Code? Yes, you can. VS Code fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Facebook tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Facebook while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Facebook scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do. ### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router? All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Facebook data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
