ghost-cli — Ghost CMS from the Terminal

Manage content on a Ghost CMS site: view site info, list and create posts and pages, manage tags — all via the Ghost Admin API (v5/v6).

Setup

1. Get your Admin API key from Ghost Admin → Settings → Advanced → Integrations (or Ghost Admin → Integrations). Create a custom integration to get a key in id:secret format.
2. Set these environment variables:

export GHOST_URL="https://your-ghost-site.com"     # your Ghost site URL
export GHOST_ADMIN_KEY="your-id:your-secret"        # from Ghost Admin → Integrations

--help and --dry-run work without credentials (lazy auth).
