What is Ghost CMS?
The Ghost skill provides a robust interface for Openclaw Skills to interact with the Ghost CMS Admin API v5.x. It enables developers and content creators to automate the entire lifecycle of digital publishing, including creating, editing, and publishing blog posts or static pages. By leveraging HS256 JWT authentication and a zero-dependency architecture, it ensures secure and efficient communication with your Ghost instance.
This skill is designed to streamline editorial workflows, allowing for seamless transitions from research or summaries to fully formatted drafts. It handles complex tasks like image uploads, SEO metadata configuration, and member data retrieval, making it an essential tool for scaling content operations without leaving your AI-augmented environment.
Ghost CMS Use Cases
- Create, edit, or publish blog posts and static pages automatically.
- Manage tags and categorization for site content via AI triggers.
- Upload and embed feature images for articles.
- Retrieve site settings, member information, and newsletter tiers for reporting.
- Draft content based on AI-generated research or external summaries.
How Ghost CMS Works
- The skill authenticates with the Ghost Admin API using a fresh HS256 JWT token generated per request.
- Users provide commands or trigger phrases to perform CRUD operations on posts, pages, or tags.
- The skill validates permissions against the local configuration file to ensure safe operations, such as checking allow_publish flags.
- Requests are sent via standard Python libraries to the configured Ghost instance URL.
- The skill processes the API response, providing the user with direct links to drafts or confirmation of live updates.

Ghost CMS Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill organizes data and configuration using a structured file system to ensure persistence and security across Openclaw Skills updates:

~/.openclaw/secrets/ghost_creds |
Stores sensitive API keys and instance URLs with restricted permissions (chmod 600). |
~/.openclaw/config/ghost/config.json |
Contains behavioral settings like publication permissions, default tags, and readonly mode. |
Metadata taxonomy includes fields such as post_id, slug, status (draft/published), and custom_excerpt, enabling precise content targeting.
