Ghost MCP. Manage posts, authors, and pages via chat.

Q: How do I list all my blog posts using the Ghost MCP Server?

You run the listpublishedposts tool. This sends a list of all your published articles and their basic metadata to your agent. You can then ask for the full content of any post using getpostbyslug.

Q: Can I see who all the authors are using listblogauthors?

Yes, running listblogauthors fetches a roster of every active writer and contributor on the publication. It gives you their profile details right in the chat.

Q: Do I need to run verifyapiconnection every time I use the Ghost MCP Server?

It's good practice to run verifyapiconnection first. It confirms your agent has the correct API keys and base URL, preventing failed requests later on.

Q: How do I get the content of a specific page using getpagebyslug?

You provide the page's slug to the getpagebyslug tool. The agent then returns the full content and metadata for that specific static page.

What you can do with this MCP connector

Connect your Ghost publication to any AI agent and manage your whole content workflow using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This server lets your agent talk directly to the Ghost Content API, giving you full control over your published content, site structure, and membership tiers without touching the dashboard. You'll use your AI client to handle everything, from listing posts and tags to fetching author profiles and site settings.

To pull published content and pages, you can list all available blog posts using list_published_posts or list all standalone static pages using list_static_pages. For any specific post, you'll get the full content and metadata by using get_post_by_slug, and if it's a static page, you use get_page_by_slug.

To map out your content structure, you can list all content tags with list_content_tags or list every author and contributor with list_blog_authors. You can also get detailed metadata for a specific tag using get_tag_details, or pull the complete profile details for any author using get_author_details.

If you wanna check the site's foundation, you can grab the global configuration data with get_site_settings. You can also list every current membership tier and their pricing rules by calling list_subscription_tiers. Finally, you can check if your agent can connect to the API successfully using verify_api_connection.

How Ghost MCP Works

1 Subscribe to the server via the Vinkius Marketplace.
2 Input your Ghost Base URL and Content API Key (you find this in your Ghost Integrations settings).
3 Tell your AI agent what you need—for example, 'List the 5 most recent posts'—and it executes the API call for you.

The bottom line is, your AI agent treats your Ghost CMS like another data source, letting you manage content without leaving your current application.

Who Is Ghost MCP For?

This is for content teams who live in the dashboard but need to work in an AI environment. If you’re an editor who wastes time clicking through menus to find a post's metadata, or a dev who has to manually run API endpoints just to check site settings, this saves you the clicks. It lets you run the whole CMS through chat.

Content Manager

Uses the agent to quickly pull published post data or list all active authors without navigating the manual dashboard.

Frontend Developer

Automates the retrieval of taxonomy tags or site configuration settings via simple AI commands, feeding the data directly into code.

Editorial Lead

Gets a real-time overview of static pages and subscription tiers by asking the agent, eliminating the need to open multiple admin tabs.

What Changes When You Connect

Stop clicking through menus. Use list_published_posts to see a list of the 5 most recent articles immediately. You get the titles and slugs in one go.
Understand your content map instantly. Run list_content_tags to see every category tag you're using, which is faster than digging through the taxonomy dashboard.
Get the full story on your writers. Running list_blog_authors pulls all contributor profiles into your chat, giving you an immediate roster of who writes for you.
Know your site limits. Use get_site_settings to programmatically access global rules, like title schemas or routing rules, without logging into the admin panel.
Track your revenue streams. list_subscription_tiers lists all active membership levels, letting you confirm your paywall rules without guessing.
Avoid fragmented data retrieval. Instead of calling three different endpoints, your agent can run get_page_by_slug and get_post_by_slug sequentially to gather related content for one report.

Real-World Use Cases

Checking a new author's credentials

An Editorial Lead needs to verify a new contributor. Instead of logging into the Ghost dashboard and navigating to the author section, they simply ask the agent to run list_blog_authors and then get_author_details for the specific writer. They get the full profile data right in the chat.

Building a site map for a new dev

A Frontend Developer needs to map out all accessible sections of the site. They ask the agent to run list_static_pages and list_content_tags. This gives them a complete list of structural components and content types needed for development.

Quickly auditing content gaps

A Content Manager wants to know if they have enough evergreen material. They ask the agent to run list_published_posts and then check the details of a specific post using get_post_by_slug. They get the content and metadata instantly for review.

Comparing membership plans

An Editorial Lead needs to compare the pricing and features of different plans. They use the agent to run list_subscription_tiers, which instantly returns all active tiers and their associated costs.

The Tradeoffs

Trying to find a post's content by guessing

A user tries to copy a URL and paste it into a generic API call, hoping it works. They waste time because they don't know if the content is a post or a page, or if the slug is correct.

→ Use the specific tools. First, run list_static_pages or list_published_posts to see the available slugs. Then, use get_page_by_slug or get_post_by_slug with the exact slug to get the content.

Manually checking global settings

A developer has to navigate deep into the Ghost admin dashboard's settings menu to find out the site's title schema or global routing rules.

→ Just ask the agent to run get_site_settings. It pulls the global config data directly and presents it to you.

Forgetting to check connectivity

A new user connects the server and immediately starts asking complex questions. The agent fails silently or gives a vague error because the API key is wrong or the URL is bad.

→ Always run verify_api_connection first. It confirms the connection works before you waste time asking for content details.

When It Fits, When It Doesn't

Use this MCP Server if your primary workflow involves managing content published through Ghost. It's best for content teams and developers who need to query structured data—like author details (get_author_details), post metadata (get_post_by_slug), or site configuration (get_site_settings)—without leaving their AI client. Don't use it if you only need to write a simple, single blog post. For that, you still need the Ghost CMS editor. Use it when you need to read, list, or cross-reference data across multiple content types."

Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This server provides 11 capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client. No middleware. No custom integration required.

Available Capabilities

get_author_details get_page_by_slug get_post_by_slug get_site_settings get_tag_details list_blog_authors list_content_tags list_published_posts list_static_pages list_subscription_tiers verify_api_connection

Sifting through the Ghost dashboard for basic content details is a massive time sink.

Today, if you need to check a post's content or an author's bio, you have to log into Ghost. You click to the post, then you click to the author profile. Then, if you need the site's global rules, you have to find the settings tab. It's a miserable, multi-tab, copy-paste routine.

With the Ghost MCP Server, you just talk to your agent. You say, 'What was the main content of the 'welcome' post?' and the agent runs `get_post_by_slug`. You get the content right there. It’s that simple.

Ghost MCP Server: Get full site data with `get_site_settings`.

Before, checking site configuration meant navigating through layers of admin menus—title schemas, routing rules, etc. This required someone to physically open the site and click through settings to find the right value.

Now, you ask the agent to run `get_site_settings`. It pulls all the global data in one go. You get the truth about your site's rules instantly.
