Step 1: Add Xholic to Claude Code
If your team uses Claude Code, run this as the same OS user Paperclip's heartbeat runs as.

```
Step 2: Sign in once
Run claude, then /mcp, pick xholic and approve in your browser. For Hermes, add xholic under mcp_servers in ~/.hermes/config.yaml and run hermes chat once.

FAQs

Paperclip and Xholic: questions

Setup, safety and pricing for using Xholic in Paperclip.

Does Paperclip connect to Xholic directly?

No. Paperclip manages agent runtimes like Claude Code and Hermes; Xholic is added to those, and Paperclip's agents then use it.

Is Xholic free to use with Paperclip?

Xholic has a 7-day free trial with no card needed. After that, the MCP server, API and CLI are included in every plan, from $19 a month. Paperclip does the writing on its own plan, so Xholic doesn't charge for its AI.

Does Paperclip need my X password?

No. You connect your X account to Xholic once through X's official sign-in. Paperclip then signs in to Xholic through your browser, so it never sees your X password or a key.

Can Paperclip post to X without asking me?

Only if you allow it. When you approve Paperclip you choose what it can do: read, write drafts and lists, and publish. Untick Publish and it asks you first with a one-click link. In apps that can show a confirmation, every post and DM waits for your yes and shows exactly what goes out. Authentication and permissions
