Stood up a mock Ghost API server on 127.0.0.1 and ran the bundled ghost_api.py verbatim per the SKILL.md's documented pattern: JWT auth, create-post with source=html, and an update-then-read-back round trip all worked correctly on the first try, including the Unsplash attribution-caption helper.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5

What Ghost Blog does
Manages a user's own Ghost blog through the Content and Admin APIs via a zero-dependency Python client: list/create/update/publish/schedule/delete posts and pages, upload images, set Unsplash feature images with attribution, manage tags/members/newsletters/tiers. Triggers on requests like 'list my blog posts', 'create a draft', 'publish my draft', 'schedule a post', or any Ghost-specific blog-management task; credentials come from user-set GHOST_API_URL/GHOST_ADMIN_API_KEY/GHOST_CONTENT_API_KEY env vars pointed at the user's own instance.
