ghost-admin-mcp

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for the Ghost Admin API. Lets any MCP client — Claude, Cursor, obot, etc. — manage a Ghost blog: create and edit posts and pages, manage tags, and upload images.

Unlike Content-API wrappers, this uses the Admin API, so it can write, not just read.

Tools

Tool Description
posts_browse / posts_read List post summaries (NQL filters, pagination) / read one with full HTML
posts_create / posts_update / posts_delete Full write access, including SEO meta, tags, feature image, scheduling
pages_browse / pages_read / pages_create / pages_update / pages_delete Same, for pages
tags_browse / tags_create / tags_update / tags_delete Tag management with post counts
images_upload Upload from a remote URL or local path; returns the Ghost-hosted URL
site_info Site title, url, Ghost version

Niceties handled for you:

  • updated_at collision check — updates fetch the current value first, so you never see Saving failed! Someone else is editing this post.
  • HTML source — write bodies as plain HTML; Ghost converts to its native format (?source=html).
  • Tags by name — pass ["Recipes", "Dinner"]; unknown tags are created automatically.

Setup

  1. In Ghost Admin: Settings → Integrations → Add custom integration — copy the Admin API Key (id:secret format) and your site URL.
  2. Configure your MCP client:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ghost": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "ghost-admin-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "GHOST_API_URL": "https://your-blog.com",
        "GHOST_ADMIN_API_KEY": "abc123:def456..."
      }
    }
  }
}

Environment variables

Variable Required Description
GHOST_API_URL yes Your Ghost site URL, no trailing slash needed
GHOST_ADMIN_API_KEY yes Admin API key (id:secret) from a custom integration
GHOST_API_VERSION no API version header, default v5.0 (works with Ghost 5.x and 6.x)

Docker

docker build -t ghost-admin-mcp .
docker run -e GHOST_API_URL=... -e GHOST_ADMIN_API_KEY=... ghost-admin-mcp

The container speaks MCP over stdio; use your platform's stdio wrapper (e.g. obot's containerized runtime) to expose it over HTTP.

Development

npm install
npm run build
GHOST_API_URL=... GHOST_ADMIN_API_KEY=... node dist/index.js
