What DeepSeek can do with LotsBlog

Once connected, DeepSeek can:

  • Write articles as Markdown drafts with a title, slug, description, topics and cover or inline images, and edit them later.
  • Schedule or publish a post when you say so. Saving a draft never publishes it.
  • Put your blog on a custom domain such as blog.example.com, or at yoursite.com/blog with one rewrite on your own site, and check the setup status.
  • Read your blog and post analytics, and invite team members with roles.
  • Read and update the private blog guide that holds your audience, voice, facts and writing rules.

The LotsBlog dashboard does the whole job too: posts, topics, images, domains, analytics, appearance and team. Your agent for speed, the dashboard for control.

You need

  • DeepSeek Harness with the dsh-mcp-client package in your profile
  • A LotsBlog API key supplied through the LOTSBLOG_API_KEY environment variable
  • A LotsBlog account. You can create one during sign-in.

Connect DeepSeek to LotsBlog

  1. Register a remote MCP entry

    Add this entry to your DeepSeek Harness profile using its documented dsh-mcp-client configuration. Use the HTTP configuration below.

    - id: mcp-lotsblog name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client' config: serverName: lotsblog transport: streamable-http url: https://api.lots.blog/mcp headers: Authorization: !!js '`Bearer ${process.env.LOTSBLOG_API_KEY}`'
  2. Supply the key and restart the harness

    Create a key at https://www.lotstech.com/api and store it securely in the runtime environment. After startup, tools appear under mcp__lotsblog__. Confirm discovery with a read-only request before changing anything.

What to ask next

  • “Turn these notes into a draft article for my blog, add a cover image and send me the preview link”
  • “Schedule the draft for Tuesday at 9am London time”
  • “Which of last month’s posts had the most views?”
  • “Connect blog.example.com to my blog and tell me which DNS record to add”

DeepSeek and LotsBlog: questions

How do I connect DeepSeek to LotsBlog?

Follow the DeepSeek setup above to add https://api.lots.blog/mcp. Configure your LotsBlog API key using the credential settings shown. Then ask “List my LotsBlog blogs and their latest posts”.

Does the DeepSeek chat app connect to LotsBlog?

This guide covers DeepSeek Harness and its Streamable HTTP MCP client, not the DeepSeek consumer chat. Follow the steps above with a LotsBlog API key.

Do I need an API key to use LotsBlog with DeepSeek?

Yes. Create one at https://www.lotstech.com/api and keep it out of chats, logs and committed files. Where DeepSeek offers sign-in, use that instead.

What does LotsBlog cost?

Current plans and prices are on https://lots.blog/pricing. Your agent’s own plan or usage fees are separate.

Can my AI agent publish to my blog?

Yes. Once LotsBlog is connected, your agent can save an article as a draft, add images and topics, and publish or schedule it when you ask. Published posts go live on your LotsBlog address, your custom domain or yoursite.com/blog.

Does my agent publish anything without asking me?

No. Saving a draft never publishes it. Your agent publishes or schedules only when you tell it to, and you can do the same from the LotsBlog dashboard.

Can my agent remember my blog’s voice?

Yes. Each blog has an optional private Markdown blog guide for audience, voice, facts and writing rules. Your agent reads it with the blog, so the next chat starts with the same rules.
