Short answer

How can I audit my Ghost site with AI?

Your AI client uses Ghost tools to pull your site settings, list your static pages, and check your newsletter configurations. You get a clear view of your site's setup without digging through the Ghost admin dashboard. This breakdown shows how to run those checks.
