Canonical page: https://lots.blog/agents/grok-bot
Steps checked: 2026-10-01

Ask Grok Bot to write, schedule and publish posts on your LotsBlog blog. Use the LotsBlog REST API from Grok Bot’s computer with an API key.

MCP server URL: https://api.lots.blog/mcp
REST API docs: https://api.lots.blog/docs
Setup instructions for your agent: https://lots.blog/skill.md

## What you can do once connected

- 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

- Grok Bot access with computer and terminal tools
- A LotsBlog API key, supplied through secure credential storage
- A LotsBlog account. You can create one during sign-in.

## Connect Grok Bot to LotsBlog

1. **Give Grok Bot the API reference.** Ask it to read the LotsBlog REST reference. It can use the API from its computer.

```
https://api.lots.blog/docs
```

2. **Create and securely supply an API key.** Create a key at https://www.lotstech.com/api. Use the agent’s secure credential flow rather than putting a secret in your prompt.

3. **Start with a read-only request.** Ask Grok Bot for something read-only, such as “List my LotsBlog blogs and their latest posts”, before it changes 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”

## Questions and troubleshooting

### How do I connect Grok Bot to LotsBlog?

Use the LotsBlog REST API from Grok Bot’s computer. Create an API key at https://www.lotstech.com/api, configure it privately for the task and share https://api.lots.blog/docs with your agent. Ask it for something read-only first.

### Can I connect LotsBlog to Grok Bot today?

Use the REST API from Grok Bot’s computer, following the setup above. Create a LotsBlog API key, supply it through secure credential storage and share https://api.lots.blog/docs with the agent.

### Do I need an API key to use LotsBlog with Grok Bot?

Yes. Create one at https://www.lotstech.com/api and keep it out of chats, logs and committed files. Where Grok Bot 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.

### Which blogging platforms support MCP?

The LotsBlog blog compares platforms on plan gate, what the agent can do and price model, checked on the vendors’ own pages: https://blog.lots.blog/best-blogging-platforms-with-mcp-support

### LotsBlog is not in Marketplace

These instructions use the REST API from the agent’s computer. Create an API key and follow the API setup above. You do not need to find LotsBlog in Marketplace.

### The agent cannot authenticate

Check API-key permissions and secure credential availability. Never paste the key into a public chat or committed file.
