This plugin exposes WordPress functionality to AI agents and LLMs via the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling secure, standardized interaction with WordPress sites. It targets developers and AI practitioners looking to integrate WordPress content and actions into AI workflows.

How It Works

The plugin implements MCP using dual transport protocols: STDIO and HTTP-based Streamable (JSON-RPC 2.0). It leverages JWT authentication for secure access and provides a React-based admin interface for token management. An extensible architecture allows for custom tools, resources, and prompts, with adapters for WordPress's feature API and experimental generic tools for any REST API endpoint.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Installation: Download the .zip from releases, upload to /wp-content/plugins/, and activate. For development, use composer install and npm install && npm run build.
• Prerequisites: A WordPress installation.
• Setup: Minimal setup time for basic functionality; configuration of tokens and permissions required for secure operation.
• Docs: docs/README.md
