Why this plugin

What you get with Goldnat for NodeBB — Admin (Pro).

💬

Create & reply

Start new topics and reply to discussions from your AI agent — seed conversations, answer questions, and keep the forum active.

🛠️

Edit & moderate

Edit posts and manage content directly — fix typos, update announcements, and keep threads clean without logging into the admin panel.

🔔

Message & follow

Send members private messages and follow topics — engage your community and stay on top of important threads automatically.

🔐

Permission-aware, runs as the user

Every write runs as the authenticated user through NodeBB's own permission model. The AI can never do anything that user couldn't do manually.

💳

Plans from $29/yr

From $29/yr for a single forum up to $149/yr for business use. Paddle handles billing, local currency, VAT, and tax automatically.

Capabilities

What it does.

OAuth 2.0 + PKCE

Secure by design

Industry-standard OAuth 2.0 flow with PKCE. Every AI agent authenticates with proof-of-key exchange — no secrets stored client-side.

Permission-aware

Native NodeBB permissions

Tool calls respect NodeBB's permission system. The AI acts as the user and only touches content that user can access.

REST + JSON

Servio Protocol

Manifest endpoint, tool discovery, structured JSON responses. Compatible with the Model Context Protocol standard.

5 Pro tools

Production ready

5 structured tools — topic create, reply, edit post, send message, follow topic — ready for production use.

Get started

Up and running.

1

Install the Free plugin first

Pro is an extension. Install the NodeBB AI Connect (Free) plugin before Pro — the core provides the manifest, OAuth, and read tools Pro builds on.

2

Purchase Pro via Paddle

Sign in to your Goldnat account and pick a plan. Paddle handles checkout in your local currency; your license appears in your account instantly.

3

Enable the Pro edition

Activate Pro on your NodeBB install and restart. The Pro tools register into the same manifest the core serves.

4

Grant write scope to your AI agent

When your AI agent reconnects it requests write scope. Approve it, and the 5 Pro community tools become callable immediately.

Compatible clients

Works with every AI client.

Pre-configured OAuth integrations for every major AI agent — including our own hosted agent at goldnat.ai. Connect in minutes, not hours.
