A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Ghost CMS with full CRUD operations, bulk actions, and advanced features. Developed by
Ghost Cms MCP server is a locally run integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Ghost CMS with full CRUD operations, bulk actions, and advanced features. Developed by Sivasubramanian Ramanathan, Product Owner & Innovation Catalyst previously at BIS Innovation.
A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Ghost CMS that provides full automation capabilities for Ghost blogs through AI assistants like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible clients.
The server ships on npm as ghost-cms-mcp-server, so your MCP client can launch it on demand — there is no separate build step. Add the server block to your client's configuration, restart it, and the tools register themselves.
You will need 3 environment variables: GHOST_URL, GHOST_ADMIN_API_KEY, GHOST_CONTENT_API_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
Plenty of developer tooling servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. It is maintained by siva-sub; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
