How do I know when my Tumblr queue is about to run out?
WebRun signs in to Tumblr every morning, counts the posts left in your queue and the drafts ready to fill it, and works out how many days of runway remain at your posting rate. It logs the number in Notion and messages you on WhatsApp before the queue empties, so the blog never goes silent.
- You learn the queue is thin days before it empties
- Ready drafts are counted as reserve, not forgotten
- A running Notion log shows how fast the queue actually drains

How is each run configured?
Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it post or queue anything on my blog?
No. WebRun only counts what is already in your queue and drafts. Publishing a post, promoting a draft, or changing the posting rate all stay in your hands, so nothing goes public on its own.
How is the runway calculated?
It divides the posts still in the queue by your posts-per-day setting to get the days left, then reports ready drafts separately as reserve you could promote.
Does it work across several blogs?
Yes. It counts the queue and drafts for each blog on your account and reports the runway per blog, so a side blog running dry is as visible as your main one.
