The problem

The AI knows. The plugin lets it act.

Without the plugin
You ask it to write the post. You copy the text.
You paste into WordPress. You set up SEO manually.
You ask about a user. You look them up in the admin.
Every action goes through your keyboard.
With the plugin
Tell it to publish. It publishes.
Updates meta titles across 50 posts at once.
Checks a student's progress in LearnDash.
Your job is to review. The AI executes.

Works with any MCP client

Installation

Ready in under 5 minutes.

01

Install the plugins

Install MCP Adapter (official WordPress plugin) and then Enable Abilities for MCP from WordPress.org. Both install in seconds from the admin.

02

Choose your auth method

The panel offers two options: Bearer Token (dedicated API key, SHA-256) or WordPress Application Password. Configure which abilities you want to expose.

03

Configure your MCP client

The panel generates the config block ready to paste into Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex CLI and more. The connection uses npx mcp-remote as the bridge — no prior install needed.
