Medium MCP. Write articles, manage drafts, and publish instantly.

Listen up. This server hooks your AI agent right into Medium, letting you manage all your published stuff without ever touching a web form or dealing with annoying login pop-ups. You can tell your agent what article to write, and it handles the publishing side of things—period. It’s built for people who need their workflow moving fast.

Publishing Your Articles

When you're ready to publish, there are three ways to drop content, depending on if you want it seen by everyone or kept private. If you wanna make a brand-new article visible on your main profile page immediately, use the create_post tool. This drops a fresh piece of writing right onto your user feed.

But sometimes, you don't wanna hit 'live' yet; maybe you need to check it or tweak it later. In that case, use create_draft; it saves all the content as an unlisted draft in your account’s drafts folder so nobody sees it until you say they can.

If you want the article live right now—publicly available for every reader on Medium to see—you gotta run create_public_post. That hits publish instantly. For posting into specific brands or groups, you use create_publication_post. This tool lets your agent post an article directly inside one of the publications you manage, keeping it grouped with that brand’s content.

Navigating Your Publications and Accounts

You can't just post anywhere. First, you need to know what's out there. The list_publications tool gives you a full roster of every publication associated with your account. If you only want to see the ones you personally manage or are part of, use list_my_publications. To figure out who can even contribute to a specific journal, run list_contributors, and it shows you which users have contribution rights.

Getting Your User Details

When your AI agent needs to verify who you are or what the account setup looks like, these tools kick in. The get_my_user_id tool pulls your unique, permanent Medium User ID—this number is critical if you're connecting this server to any other system. If you need a general snapshot of who you are on the platform, run get_my_profile; it fetches all your personal profile information.

For tracking down exactly what account details belong to the user running the process, use get_authenticated_user. These tools make sure your agent always knows which account it’s working with.

How It Works

You just subscribe to this server on Vinkius and drop in your Medium Integration Token into your client settings. Then, you talk to your agent like talking to a teammate: 'Write an article about widgets that uses these three points.' Your agent handles the rest—it figures out if it needs to create a draft first or jump straight to publishing under a specific publication you manage.
