# Write Blog Articles with MCP

> Use the Proferex MCP server to have Claude, ChatGPT or another AI app write and edit drafts on your Proferex blog, and approve publishing in Proferex.

With the Proferex MCP server connected, your AI app can work on your Proferex blog: list your articles, write new drafts and edit them. Anything that changes what readers see, such as publishing, waits for your approval in Proferex.

Connect your AI app first. See [Connect Your AI App with MCP](/docs/ai-assistant/mcp/index.md).

## What your AI app can do on your blog

| Action | What happens |
|---|---|
| List articles and categories | Answers straight away |
| Write a new draft | Saved as a draft. Nobody can see it yet |
| Edit a draft | Updates the draft |
| Create a category | Adds the category |
| Publish, unpublish, or edit a live article | Waits for your approval in Proferex |

Your AI app can't delete articles. Delete them in the blog editor.

If you have more than one blog, name it in your request, for example "on my Proferex blog".

## Write a draft

Ask in plain language:

```text
Write a short draft blog article for my Proferex blog called "3 ways to cut campaign cost", about 300 words. Save it as a draft, don't publish.
```

Your AI app shows what it wants to save. In Claude, click **Allow once**.

The draft is saved, and your AI app gives you a link to open it in the editor.

To change it, ask again in the same chat, for example:

```text
Make the intro shorter and add a conclusion.
```

## Publish an article

```text
Publish that article.
```

Your AI app sends the request to Proferex and gives you a link. The article is not live yet.

![Claude saying the article isn't live yet and that publishing needs approval inside Proferex, with a link and the expiry date](/images/docs/mcp-blog-claude-publish-request.jpg "Publishing always waits for your approval")

Open the link, or go to **Account → Connected AI Apps → Proposed changes**, and click **Approve** to publish or **Decline** to keep it as a draft.

![The approval page to publish the article, proposed by Claude, with Approve and Decline buttons](/images/docs/mcp-blog-publish-approval.jpg "Approve to make the article live")

The same applies to unpublishing an article and to editing one that is already live.
