Blog Draft Agent with Codex

Create the post as a draft, in the assigned category, with a one sentence excerpt, and never publish or schedule. The write path is deliberately narrow, which leaves the run as a read of recent posts, a decision about the next topic, and one create call. Codex is efficient through that and quick to stop when the calendar holds nothing safe to write.

Live demo

Watch it work before it's live

Run a staged conversation — no account needed. The agent handles it for real while a simulated world answers its tool calls; nothing touches real accounts, and nothing is actually sent.

Tuesday 10:00 draft slot

Content Schedule/blog/guides

It is Tuesday 10:00 and the next unwritten row on the calendar is a guide to cutting warehouse pick errors, aimed at operations managers at distributors of 20 to 200 people, with notes covering the three causes the team sees most often and one customer story the founder wrote up last month. The four most recent published posts were two product updates and two customer stories.

What you'll need

Set up in minutes

Using this template drops you into a guided setup. It asks exactly this, nothing else:

  1. Connect WordPress

    One sign-in. The agent acts through your account, scoped to what this template uses.

  2. Connect Slack

    One sign-in. The agent acts through your account, scoped to what this template uses.

  3. Content calendar

    The topics you want written, in the order you want them - for each one the angle, who it is for, the category it belongs in, the call to action, and any facts, numbers or customer details the post is allowed to state. The agent only writes what is here.

  4. Voice guide

    How your blog should read - person and tone, sentence and section length, how technical to get, the words and claims you never want to see, and one or two published posts you consider the standard.

  5. Runs on Codex

    Preselected for this page — connect your Codex account during setup, or switch to NoClick's built-in models with one click.

  6. Watch it handle a test run

    A staged conversation against a simulated world — then it’s live.

A considered pairing

Why Codex for this agent

One create call, drafts only

No publishing, no scheduling, no editing an existing post. A literal harness treats a narrow write path as exactly that.

Cheap when it declines

A run that finds every topic covered ends after a read and a Slack line, which costs almost nothing.

Good to know

Before you fork

What does a run cost when it writes 1200 words?

More than a short digest run and far less than the hour it replaces, and it fires twice a week out of the box. The runs that decline to write are nearly free, since they stop before generating anything. Moving to daily multiplies both figures.
