CitePo

A lightweight CLI for creating, previewing, and building blogs. Create with one command, write in MDX, push to Git — your blog is truly yours.

• Zero boilerplate — no package.json, no node_modules, just content and config
• MDX powered — use React components in your posts
• Multi-language — built-in i18n with directory-based routing
• AI-ready — auto-generates llms.txt, skill.md for LLM discoverability
• SEO built-in — RSS feed, sitemap, robots.txt out of the box
• Agent friendly — generates a clean document structure, perfect for coding agents like Codex and Claude Code to edit directly
• Launch fast — deploy your blog quickly with the CitePo platform

Quick Start

npx citepo new my-blog
cd my-blog
npx citepo dev

Commands

For convenience, install citepo globally to use the citepo command from any directory:

# Using npm
npm install -g citepo

# Using pnpm
pnpm install -g citepo

yarn install -g citepo

| Command | Description | Key Options | | --------------- | -------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- | | citepo new | Create a new blog project | Interactive setup | | citepo dev | Start local development server | -p, --port, --base-path | | citepo build | Build static site for production | --base-path, --site-url, --out-dir | | citepo --help | Show help information | N/A |
