Velocms runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 74 installs a week from npm. Last commit 20 Jul 2026.
Draft, publish, and manage your VeloCMS blog from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client.
Nothing serious here today
Today is the operative word: we check Velocms every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
