What Manus and Cue are, and where Adly fits
Manus is a general-purpose AI agent that carries out multi-step tasks on its own computer in the cloud. On 28 September 2026 the company launched Manus 2.0 together with Cue, a separate app for creating personal agents. According to Manus, every Cue agent gets its own email address, phone number, wallet and computer. Cue opened in early access by invite.
Manus supports custom MCP servers: you add a server by name, URL and credentials, and its tools become available to the agent. Adly runs an MCP server tied to your Adly account, your brands and your usage limit, and it signs in with a key, which is what that form asks for.
Cue does not have connector documentation of its own yet. This page covers Manus today, and we will add Cue when Manus documents how its agents connect to outside tools.
What Manus can do once Adly is connected
Carousels and videos
Tips carousels, designs around a product photo, UGC-style videos, image-to-video and product studio videos.
Copy in Arabic or English
Adly writes the headline, body and call to action. Manus can pass your own caption instead when you want your exact words.
Research first, then create
Let Manus research your market or read your product pages, then turn what it found into posts through Adly.
Publish now or schedule
Send a finished post to Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn and X now or at a set time.
Manage the queue
List scheduled posts, move one to a new time, cancel one, and see what already went live.

What happens when Manus calls Adly
Manus follows the same steps you would follow in the Adly app:
- Pick the brand. It searches your brands and selects the one you mean.
- Create a job. A design, a tips carousel, a design around a product photo or a video.
- Wait for it. Designs take a short while and videos take longer. The agent checks the job until the result is ready, then shows it to you.
- Approve the design. Or ask for an edit in plain words. After approval Adly writes the ad copy.
- Approve the copy and publish. Post now or schedule for later, on the networks you choose.
Every job also appears in the Adly app, so you can step in there at any point.
What Cue adds, and what is not known yet
Cue is a standalone app from Manus for creating and running personal agents. The launch coverage describes agents that have their own email address, phone number, wallet and computer, can work together in group chats, and can make payments within a budget you set.
What is not public yet is how a Cue agent connects to outside tools. Manus has documented custom MCP servers for Manus, not for Cue. We do not claim Cue support until that is documented. If you are in Cue’s early access and find where custom servers go, tell us at [email protected].
Where Adly can publish
Adly publishes to five networks:
- Facebook: the Facebook Page you connected. Posts, carousels, videos and Stories.
- Instagram: business or creator accounts. Posts, carousels, videos and Stories.
- TikTok: the TikTok account you connected. Video posts and photo posts. Stories are not supported on TikTok.
- LinkedIn: your connected personal profile. Posts with a design, video or images.
- X: the X account you connected, on Solo and up. Links are removed from posts to X.
More detail in the social media scheduler guide.
Good to know before you connect
- The key is the access. Anyone holding the key can create content on your brands. Revoke it in Adly the moment you stop using the connection.
- Menus move. This guide names the fields Manus asks for, because the exact menu path has changed between versions.
- This guide follows Manus’s documentation. We wrote this guide from the vendor’s own documentation and could not test every screen from our region. If a step looks different for you, write to [email protected] and we will update it.

Manus, Cue and Adly: questions and answers
What is Manus?
Manus is a general-purpose AI agent that carries out multi-step tasks on its own computer in the cloud. It supports custom MCP servers, which is how it connects to Adly.
What is Cue?
Cue is an app Manus launched on 28 September 2026 for creating personal agents. According to Manus, each agent gets its own email address, phone number, wallet and computer. It opened in early access by invite.
Can Cue agents use Adly?
We cannot confirm it yet. Cue has no connector documentation of its own. Manus supports custom MCP servers, and that is the route this page describes.
Which Adly plan do I need?
Solo ($49/month) or Growth ($119/month). Adly MCP is part of both, and the Adly team approves each access request before you can generate a key. On the Launch plan you can use Adly inside ChatGPT instead.
Will Manus publish without asking me?
Adly tells every connected agent to confirm the networks, the caption and the time with you before it posts. You can also let the agent create only, then approve and schedule yourself in the Adly app.
Which networks can it publish to?
Facebook Pages, Instagram business or creator accounts, TikTok accounts, LinkedIn personal profiles and X accounts. All five are included on Solo and Growth, the plans that include Adly MCP.
Does it count toward my Adly usage limit?
Creating designs and videos counts toward the same usage limit as the Adly app. Publishing and scheduling are included in your plan and do not count toward it.
Does it work in Arabic?
Yes. Adly creates designs and ad copy in Arabic or English, and Manus can ask for either.
What if my key leaks?
Revoke it in Adly under Profile, then Adly MCP, and generate a new one. Treat the key like a password and never paste it into a public chat.
