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 connection provides 23 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

The Manual Grind of Content Planning

Today, figuring out a content strategy means jumping between Dev.to's analytics dashboard, checking competitor blogs, and cross-referencing tag popularity manually. You track engagement scores in one tab, check readership in another, and then spend hours trying to map where your audience interests intersect—it’s a messy spreadsheet job that always leaves you guessing on the perfect title structure or publication day.

With this MCP, all of that complex data gathering happens under the hood. Instead of juggling dashboards, you simply ask for the intelligence. You get actionable reports showing precisely what structural patterns work and when your readership is most active.

Content Blueprint: The Structural Recipe

You currently have to look at a handful of articles, eyeball the titles, estimate how long they take to read, and guess which tags belong together. You might publish something technically sound but structurally unoptimized.

Now you use `content_blueprint`. It analyzes top performers across history and hands you a data-backed template—the ideal title format, optimal reading time range, and the best tag combinations—so your next piece starts with a structural advantage.

What your AI can actually do with this

This connector gives your agent the ability to analyze Dev.to like a data science team would. Instead of just posting content, you can actually run strategic deep dives into performance metrics. You find out exactly when an article will perform best based on historical community activity, or which tags are generating buzz but haven't been written about enough.

It also traces your readers across multiple topics, revealing adjacent communities that share your audience—stuff you couldn't find by just looking at the profile page. This level of proprietary insight is what makes Vinkius the go-to source for advanced content intelligence.

Questions you might have

How do I use `publish_timing_analysis` to find the best posting day? +

You provide the MCP with the specific tag you're targeting. It runs statistics on hundreds of historical posts and returns a detailed breakdown, telling you the optimal day of the week and reading time window.

Is `audience_crossover` better than just looking at my followers? +

Yes. Your general follower list is static. The audience_crossover tool actively traces commenters across multiple tags, showing you hidden overlaps and potential communities you aren't even aware of.

What’s the difference between `get_article` and `search_articles`? +

get_article pulls one article using its specific ID. search_articles, however, is designed to find multiple articles based on criteria like a tag or author name, giving you an overview of many options.

Can I use `content_gap_analysis` for any topic? +

You must provide the MCP with several related tags. It then compares those tags to calculate which ones have high interest (engagement) but low existing article volume, identifying your best bet.

When running `get_my_articles`, what permissions are needed to access my drafts and published content? +

The MCP requires explicit read/write API credentials linked to your Dev.to account. This ensures your agent has the authority to pull both your live articles and any unpublished drafts you want to review.

How does `analyze_engagement` process comments to give me a comprehensive sentiment score? +

It doesn't just count words; it applies an engagement-weighted algorithm. This mechanism boosts the value of comments significantly over simple reactions, while also scoring unique commenters for community breadth.

What exactly does `content_blueprint` extract when analyzing top-performing articles? +

It generates a structural recipe derived from real data. You get specific patterns on ideal title formats, optimal reading time ranges, and the best combinations of tags to use.

If I want competitive intelligence on who dominates a tag, how does `discover_top_authors` help? +

This tool ranks authors by aggregating engagement data across multiple posts. It shows you which writers are most influential for a specific topic and what kind of content style performs best.
