Ghost + Contentful MCP

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets AI assistants search across multiple CMS platforms — Ghost and Contentful — from a single interface.

What it does

This server exposes five search tools over the MCP stdio transport:

Tool	Source	Searches across
`search_blog_posts`	Ghost	Post title, excerpt, and body
`search_blog_pages`	Ghost	Page title and body
`search_learn_pages`	Contentful	Learn page title, meta fields, and rich-text body
`search_case_studies`	Contentful	Company name, overview, quote, use case, impact, and body
`search_events`	Contentful	Internal event pages and event cards (title, description, agenda)

Each tool accepts a query string and returns matching results with contextual snippets highlighting where the match was found.
