# Connect Perplexity Computer to LotsBlog

Canonical page: https://lots.blog/agents/perplexity-computer
Steps checked: 2026-10-01

Ask Perplexity Computer to write, schedule and publish posts on your LotsBlog blog. Add LotsBlog to Perplexity Computer as a remote MCP server and sign in once.

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

- Perplexity with Computer and custom remote connectors enabled
- Workspace permission to add a connector
- A LotsBlog account. You can create one during sign-in.

## Connect Perplexity Computer to LotsBlog

1. **Add a remote connector.** Open Account settings → Connectors → + Custom connector. Choose Remote, name it LotsBlog and enter this URL.

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

2. **Authenticate.** Use OAuth sign-in if offered. For a Bearer-token connection, create a LotsBlog API key at https://www.lotstech.com/api and add it in the connector’s credential field.

```
Authorization: Bearer <your API key>
```

3. **Enable it in Computer.** Enable LotsBlog under Connectors for your Computer workflow, then ask it “List my LotsBlog blogs and their latest posts”.

## 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 Perplexity Computer to LotsBlog?

Follow the Perplexity Computer setup above to add https://api.lots.blog/mcp. Complete sign-in using the authentication method shown. Then ask “List my LotsBlog blogs and their latest posts”.

### Is there a LotsBlog skill to install in Computer’s sandbox?

This guide uses Perplexity’s remote MCP connection. LotsBlog does not provide a CLI skill to install in the sandbox.

### Do I need an API key to use LotsBlog with Perplexity Computer?

Only if the connector asks for one. Create one at https://www.lotstech.com/api and keep it out of chats, logs and committed files. Where Perplexity Computer 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 tools are not available

Check that LotsBlog is enabled for this session and authentication has completed. Reload the connection or start a new session to refresh its tools.
