Scheduling & Calendar

When you compose a post and choose "Schedule", you pick a date and time for publication. FireBreath creates a scheduled job that automatically publishes your post at the exact time you selected. Posts are published via the platform's API — no manual intervention needed.

Scheduled posts appear in both the Calendar view and the Review Queue. You can edit a scheduled post at any time before it is approved (locked).

The Calendar page offers three views:

• Month view — See your entire month at a glance. Each day shows the number of scheduled posts with color-coded status indicators.
• Week view — A more detailed week-by-week breakdown showing post titles, platforms, and times.
• Day view — Hour-by-hour timeline for a single day, useful for planning posting cadence.

From the Compose page:

1. 1.Write your content and attach any media.
2. 2.Select one or more accounts to publish to.
3. 3.Click "Schedule" and pick your date and time.
4. 4.Click "Schedule Post" to confirm.

The post is saved with a scheduled job. It will publish automatically at the selected time.

To reschedule a post, open it from the Calendar or Dashboard and change the scheduled date/time. The old scheduled job is automatically cancelled and a new one is created.

To cancel a scheduled post, delete it or change its status to Draft. This removes the scheduled job and prevents publication.

FireBreath uses a reliable three-layer publishing system:

1. 1.QStash (primary) — Per-post scheduled jobs via Upstash QStash, an HTTP-based job scheduler. Each post gets its own delivery job.
2. 2.Vercel Cron (fallback) — A minute-by-minute cron job checks for any posts that should have published but were missed by QStash.
3. 3.Local dev — During local development, an in-process interval checks for due posts every 60 seconds.

This triple-layer approach ensures posts are published on time even if one system experiences issues.
