Parse.ly MCP: your content analytics in Claude or ChatGPT

Which articles are pulling traffic right now, and from where? Parse.ly's MCP server queries your content analytics: top content, referrers, campaigns, trends and real-time data. ContextGate connects it to Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor with your Parse.ly login, so editors can ask in plain words, and your workspace keeps a record of each analytics query.
