A Claude CMS is a content management system that Claude can operate directly. Through an MCP connector, Claude reads your live posts, drafts new ones from your brand knowledge base, edits them section by section, and hands them back for you to publish. The term also gets used for a CMS added to a website that Claude Code built. Contengi covers that too: see the [AI-native CMS](https://contengi.com/ai-native-cms) and [Contengi for websites built with Claude](https://contengi.com/integrations/claude-websites). What Claude can do in it Find and read any post on your site Draft new posts from your knowledge base Edit one section of a live post at a time Research with Search Console and GA4 Leave every change for you to approve ## What Claude can do in your CMS. ### Finds any post Ask for the post on retainer pricing and Claude pulls it from the CMS, live version included, without you digging through an admin panel. ### Writes from your brand Claude reads your knowledge base first: positioning, audience, tone of voice, and the hard rules every draft has to follow. ### Edits one section at a time Ask Claude to update a stat or tighten an intro and only that section changes. The edit waits in Contengi with a diff you can revert. ### Researches with your data Search Console and GA4 are one question away, so Claude can find the posts that are slipping before it touches them. ### Runs your workflows Kick off a playbook, a refresh, or a scheduled workflow from the chat, and approve the steps waiting on you. ### Never publishes on its own Everything Claude writes saves as a draft. Nothing goes live on your site until you publish it or ask Claude to. From your own Claude ## Every post is one chat away. Ask Claude to find the post on retainer pricing, update the numbers, and add an FAQ. It reads the live version, makes the change in your brand voice, and the edit lands in Contengi waiting for your approval. The [Claude connector](https://contengi.com/features/claude-connector) gives Claude more than 60 Contengi tools, so the same chat can research with your Search Console data, draft a new post, or run a workflow. ## Claude alone, Claude Code, or Claude with a CMS.

A content management system that Claude can operate directly. Through an MCP connector, Claude reads your live posts, drafts new ones from your brand knowledge base, edits them section by section, and leaves them for you to publish. Contengi is a Claude CMS that connects to WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, and custom sites. ### Will Claude publish to my site without asking? No. Everything Claude writes is saved as a draft, and edits to a live post stay inside Contengi until you publish them. Contengi instructs Claude never to publish unless you ask it to. ### Which Claude apps does it work with? Claude on the web and desktop through custom connectors, and Claude Code. Custom connectors need a Claude plan that supports them. ### Does it use my Claude subscription or my Anthropic API key? Research, drafting, and editing through the connector run on your Claude subscription, with the model you choose. Jobs that run inside Contengi, like playbooks, workflow runs, and full article refreshes, use your workspace's Anthropic API key. ### Does my website have to be built with Claude? No. WordPress, Shopify, and Webflow connect natively. If Claude Code or v0 built your site, it connects through one signed endpoint that Claude Code writes for you from a single prompt. ### How is this different from letting Claude Code edit my repo? Claude Code can change files, but it does not know your brand, has no draft and approval step, and every post change becomes a code deploy. A Claude CMS keeps posts as content: Claude writes and edits them, you approve, and Contengi publishes over the same URL.
