medium-ops MCP

A standalone Medium CLI and 23-tool MCP server that allows IDEs like Cursor to draft and reply to Medium posts. It uses a hybrid authentication approach combining public RSS for reads and undocumented dashboard GraphQL for writes, requiring no API keys for basic usage. The server features a propose/confirm reply engine, SQLite deduplication, and JSONL audit logging to ensure safe and audited interactions with Medium.
