Nexus — technical foundation for publishing and distribution automation
● Running
Nexus is the technical foundation for publishing and distribution at Triple 8 Labs – a WordPress-based automation hub designed to minimise the manual effort needed for those activities. It connects the site to external tools and systems, including an n8n-powered publishing pipeline and AI assisted distribution process. The goal is a system that reduces production overhead and friction.
What it does
Nexus provides the infrastructure that every Triple 8 Labs project uses for content publishing and distribution. At its core is a WordPress site connected to automation workflows, AI tools, SEO optimisation, and affiliate link management.
For content publishing, a topic brief generates a fully formatted article draft; researched and written by AI agents like Claude and Gemini, featured image generated by Google Imagen, SEO metadata applied via Rank Math, tags created and attached, and Slack notifications for monitoring. Future workflows can extend this to cover video production, translation and social distribution.

What’s been built
Publishing Pipeline
An n8n workflow that takes a prompt and produces a complete WordPress draft — including content, featured image, SEO fields, and tags.
Site Infrastructure
WordPress configured with SEO, affiliate management, GDPR compliance, security, caching, and MCP access for AI-assisted development and management.
Technical foundation for publishing and distribution
Dev and production n8n instances connected to WordPress via REST API. Credential structure designed for portability and future workflow
expansion.
Try It Yourself
These are the actual templates that can be imported for free from the official n8n workflow library and adapted to your stack. You’ll need your own API keys and an n8n instance (cloud or self-hosted) to run them.
- Create SEO-ready WordPress blog drafts with Claude, Imagen and Slack
A workflow that takes a prompt, generates an article with Claude, creates a featured image with Imagen, sets Rank Math SEO fields, and posts a Slack notification – all in one run. - Route AI prompts between Anthropic, Google Gemini, Mistral and OpenAI
Routes prompts between Anthropic, Google Gemini, Mistral, and OpenAI with a uniform interface, so changing models is only a config update and doesn't mean rebuilding the pipeline. - Draft and review SEO WordPress articles with multi-agent LLMs and Slack
This workflow accepts an article brief, routes it through a three-stage LLM pipeline to research, draft, and review HTML content, optionally generates a featured image with Google Imagen, then creates a WordPress draft post with tags and Rank Math SEO metadata and sends an optional Slack notification.
Honest assessment
The infrastructure took longer to set up than expected – mostly because some decisions (SEO integration, refactoring the publishing pipeline, how to handle plagiarism and fact checking) were worth spending time on to build a solid reusable foundation. The publishing pipeline works well in practice by removing production friction, not editorial control.
