This extension adds an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server to WordPress, making it possible to interact with your site programmatically through a structured JSON-RPC API. Once enabled, it exposes REST endpoints that can be used for live connections via server-sent events, queued messaging, or direct calls.
The plugin is designed with extensibility in mind. It doesn’t just provide a simple “ping” tool – it can surface a wide range of WordPress operations, from user and post management to options, comments, media, taxonomies, and even WooCommerce when available. You can selectively enable or disable which areas of WordPress are exposed (core, plugins, themes, WooCommerce, or dynamic REST extensions). This lets you tailor the server to your own use case, whether that’s basic health checks or full administrative automation.
Security is handled with bearer tokens or administrator privileges, ensuring that only authorized clients can interact with the server. The plugin also includes a debug mode that writes detailed logs to help diagnose issues during development.
Once active, the MCP server supports a set of standardized JSON-RPC methods such as initialize, tools/list, and tools/call. These allow external clients to discover what tools are available, then invoke them with structured arguments. Results are normalized so that simple strings, arrays, or objects are returned in a consistent format.
The built-in toolset covers common tasks like:
-
Listing, creating, updating, or deleting posts, comments, users, terms, and media.
-
Managing post metadata, options, featured images, and taxonomies.
-
Counting posts, terms, or attachments by different criteria.
-
Uploading media from URLs or generating images and vision analysis through Aimogen’s AI capabilities.
-
Running site searches and fetching full content, making it possible to plug WordPress content directly into deep research workflows.
For persistent, real-time connections, the server can stream events over SSE, maintaining session state and flushing messages in order. Messages are queued in WordPress transients and delivered in sequence, ensuring nothing is lost even if the client is briefly disconnected.
In short, this extension turns your WordPress site into a standards compliant MCP server. It gives outside systems a safe, structured way to query, manipulate, and generate content, while still leaving you in control of what capabilities are exposed.
