Installation — ChatGPT (HTTP mode)

ChatGPT requires a publicly hosted HTTPS server. Run this on your VPS behind Nginx/Caddy.

1. Build

npm install
npm run build

2. Set environment variables on your server

export TRANSPORT=http
export PORT=3001
export MCP_SERVER_URL=https://mcp.yourdomain.com   # public HTTPS URL
export BLOGHUNCH_API_URL=https://api.bloghunch.com/api/v1

3. Start the server

npm start
# or: TRANSPORT=http node dist/index.js

Or with Docker:

docker build -t bloghunch-mcp .
docker run -p 3001:3001 \
  -e MCP_SERVER_URL=https://mcp.yourdomain.com \
  bloghunch-mcp

4. Expose via Nginx/Caddy

Point your domain (e.g., mcp.yourdomain.com) to the server on port 3001 with HTTPS.

Nginx example:

server {
    server_name mcp.yourdomain.com;
    location / {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:3001;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_read_timeout 300s;
    }
}

5. Connect in ChatGPT

1. Open ChatGPT → Settings → Apps & Connectors → Advanced settings → enable Developer Mode
2. Click Create connector
3. Enter name: Bloghunch and URL: https://mcp.yourdomain.com
4. Select OAuth as auth method
5. Click Connect → log in with your Bloghunch API key
