CMO.so runs Maggie, an AI marketing assistant that writes and publishes blog posts to the user's website, drafts LinkedIn and Facebook Page posts for approval, and reports how the site does in Google Search and in AI answers. Agents reach it through the CMO.so MCP server at https://mcp.cmo.so/mcp. This skill gets the agent connected, proves the connection works with a free read, and picks the website every other CMO.so skill acts on.

When to use

  • Any CMO.so tool is missing from the agent, or a tool answers that the user must sign in or that the sign-in expired.
  • The user says "connect CMO.so", "set up Maggie", "log in to CMO.so".
  • The user has several websites and wants to switch, or the agent does not know which workspace to use.
  • Not for: adding, verifying or connecting a website for publishing (cmo-website-setup); reviewing connected apps and API keys later (cmo-team-access).

What is the Connect to CMO.so skill?

Connect an AI agent to CMO.so through the MCP server (OAuth, or CLI/API key without a browser) and pick the website to work on.

It's one of cmo.so's open CMO.so core skills: a SKILL.md file that tells an AI agent when to use it, what to ask you first, the steps to follow, the checks to pass and what to hand back, so the job is done the same careful way every time.

When should I use it?

Reach for it when you'd otherwise say something like “Connect to CMO.so”, “Set up Maggie in this agent”, “Sign in to CMO.so”. Your agent reads the skill's description and picks it for requests like these, so you don't need to name it.

If a request is close but not quite right, the skill says so and points to the related skill that fits better, instead of forcing a poor answer.

What do I need to give it?

It works best with the agent the user is running (Claude Code, another MCP client, a headless server or CI); whether a browser is available on this machine; and which website to work on, when the account has several.

You don't have to prepare everything up front. The skill asks for missing pieces one at a time and says plainly when it's working from an assumption instead of your data.

What do I get back?

You get a verified connection to the CMO.so MCP server (name and email read back); the selected website (`workspace`) remembered for the rest of the conversation; and one recommended next skill.

Every result comes from a written method with a quality bar, so numbers name their source, claims are checked and the output is ready to use or share rather than a rough draft.

Is it free?

Yes. The skill is open source under the MIT licence, so you can use it, change it and share it, including for client work.

Seeing, copying and downloading the whole file on cmo.so needs a free sign-in. Copying also upvotes and saves it, so you can find it again under Saved on the skills page.

Which AI agents can use it?

Claude Code installs it from the cmo.so marketplace. Any agent that reads SKILL.md folders, such as Codex or Cursor, can use it once the folder is in its skills directory.

As a core skill it also works in Claude, ChatGPT and other MCP clients through the cmo.so MCP server, so you can use whichever assistant you already have.

How do I install it?

In Claude Code, run /plugin marketplace add AI-Marketing-OS-LTD/cmo-so-skills, then /plugin install cmo-so@cmo-so. That installs this skill together with the rest of the CMO.so core group.

For other agents, sign in, press Copy or Download above and put the file in your agent's skills folder as SKILL.md inside a folder named after the skill.

Do I need a cmo.so account to use it?

Yes. Connect to CMO.so is a core skill: it works through the cmo.so MCP server with tools such as profile_get, workspaces_list, so it acts on your own website, drafts and channels.

The free plan is enough to start, and every change it makes is shown to you as a preview first and only goes ahead after you say yes.

Which skills work well with it?

It pairs well with Website setup & verification; and Daily marketing check-in. The agent can hand over from one to the next in the same conversation, for example research first, then the plan, then the writing.

Each of them has its own page with what it needs and what it returns, linked below.

Can I change it to fit my business?

Yes. It's a plain Markdown file, so you can edit the steps, add your own checks and examples, and keep your version in your own repo. The MIT licence allows it.

If your change would help others too, suggest it on the skills page or open a pull request on GitHub, and it may be folded into the library for everyone.

Where does the method come from?

It's written by cmo.so and adapts open work by others, credited on this page: every-app/open-seo (MIT); every-app/open-seo (MIT); and typefully/agent-skills (MIT).

Only permissively licensed work is adapted; copyleft repos are used for ideas only and repos without a licence aren't used at all.

Is my data sent to cmo.so when the agent uses it?

No. The skill only guides your own agent; your files, documents and data stay wherever your agent and its tools keep them.

As a core skill it reads and changes your cmo.so data through the MCP server, with your sign-in, and only after you confirm each change.
