Introducing MCP Support: Manage Your Superblog with Claude Code

We're excited to announce that Superblog now supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP), allowing you to manage your blog directly from AI assistants like Claude Code. This integration brings the power of conversational AI to your blogging workflow.

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that enables AI assistants to securely connect with external tools and services. Think of it as a bridge that lets Claude understand and interact with your Superblog—creating posts, managing tags, updating categories, and deploying changes—all through natural conversation.

What Can You Do with Superblog MCP?

With MCP integration, you can:

• Create and edit blog posts using markdown or HTML

• Manage tags and categories to organize your content

• Schedule posts for future publication

• Pin and feature posts for better visibility

• Deploy your site to make changes live

• Get internal link suggestions to improve SEO

Setting Up MCP with Claude Code

Step 1: Configure Claude Code

Add the Superblog MCP server to your Claude Code configuration with the following command.

claude mcp add my-superblog --transport http https://write.superblog.ai/api/mcp

Step 2: Authenticate

• Launch Claude in your terminal and type /mcp

• Choose 'my-superblog' and select 'authenticate'

• A browser opens and you have to login with your superblog account

• Click 'authorize'

• Then close the browser tab

Step 3: Start Using It

Once configured, you can interact with your Superblog using natural language in your claude terminal:

Create a new post:

"Create a draft blog post titled 'Getting Started with React Hooks' with an introduction to useState and useEffect"

Publish a post:

"Publish the draft post about React Hooks"

Add tags:

"Create a new tag called 'React' and add it to my latest post"

Deploy changes:

"Deploy my site to make the new post live"

Real-World Workflow Example

Here's how a typical blogging session might look:

1. You: "List my recent draft posts"

2. Claude: Shows your drafts with titles and dates

3. You: "Update the SEO description for the AI trends post to focus on practical applications"

4. Claude: Updates the meta description

5. You: "Add the 'AI' and 'Technology' tags to it and publish"

6. Claude: Adds tags and publishes the post

7. You: "Deploy the site"

8. Claude: Triggers deployment, making changes live
