N2n Post2site

n2n-post2site

Local MCP bridge for AI-assisted website publishing.

n2n-post2site lets an AI IDE client talk to a protected website content API without exposing a database, filesystem, shell, deployment process, payments, or account administration. It is a thin stdio MCP server: validate tool input, map it to HTTP, and return the backend response.

Architecture

AI IDE client
  -> MCP stdio
n2n-post2site
  -> HTTPS + X-API-KEY
website content API
  -> host adapter handles storage, policy, preview, publish

For Laravel sites, n2ns/laravel-post2site is the first-party backend package for this contract.

Workflow

The intended authoring loop is:

1. Read post2site://capabilities, post2site://site-context, and post2site://editorial-policy.
2. Inspect existing content with n2n_list_inventory, post2site://inventory/stats, and n2n_check_duplicates.
3. Draft locally in the chat/IDE. Use n2n_validate_working_draft for non-persistent backend validation.
4. After the draft is confirmed for remote saving, call n2n_create_draft.
5. Upload only the selected image with n2n_upload_asset, then update the draft if needed.
6. Validate and preview with n2n_validate_draft and n2n_preview_draft.
7. Publish only after explicit publish confirmation with n2n_publish_draft.

The MCP server does not define blog fields such as type, topics, geo_tags, seo_keywords, or locales. Those live inside the host-declared content_payload object and are validated by the backend.

Quick Start

Requirements:

• Node.js 22+
• An MCP-capable IDE/client
• A backend implementing the Post2Site publishing HTTP contract
• A content API key

Using npm:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "n2n-post2site": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "n2n-post2site"],
      "env": {
        "CONTENT_API_BASE_URL": "https://your-site.com/api/v1/mcp",
        "CONTENT_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Using a local checkout:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "n2n-post2site": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/n2n-post2site/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "CONTENT_API_BASE_URL": "https://your-site.com/api/v1/mcp",
        "CONTENT_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

CONTENT_API_BASE_URL should point at the protected publishing API base, for example https://your-site.example/api/v1/mcp. Keep the API key out of prompts, screenshots, and article content.

MCP Resources

Static resources:

• post2site://capabilities
• post2site://site-context
• post2site://editorial-policy
• post2site://inventory/stats

Resource templates:

• post2site://inventory/resources/{target_identifier}
• post2site://drafts/{draft_id}

List tools include canonical resource URIs and MCP resource_link blocks when returned rows can be opened as resources.

MCP Tools

Inventory:

• n2n_list_inventory
• n2n_check_duplicates

Drafting:

• n2n_validate_working_draft
• n2n_list_drafts
• n2n_create_draft
• n2n_update_draft
• n2n_validate_draft
• n2n_preview_draft

Assets and publishing:

• n2n_upload_asset
• n2n_publish_draft

See [Resources Reference](./docs/RESOURCESREFERENCE.md) and [Tools Reference](./docs/TOOLSREFERENCE.md) for examples.

Security Boundaries

n2n-post2site should not expose:

• Delete operations.
• Direct database queries.
• Filesystem writes.
• Shell commands.
• Deployment or server operations.
• Product, pricing, payment, subscription, or account administration.
• Server-managed lifecycle fields such as published_at, author, or host markers.

The backend is responsible for authentication, validation, preview rendering, publication, audit rules, and server-managed fields.

Development

npm run build
npm test
npm run smoke:mcp
npm run check

npm run check runs build, unit tests, built-surface checks, and the MCP protocol smoke test.
