AI abilities: what they are

Typed MCP tools. Inputs, outputs, permissions. The full list lives at /ai-abilities/.

This guide walks you through AI abilities: what they are step by step. NIBWP runs entirely on your own WordPress install, so everything here happens on your server, under your control.

Overview

NIBWP turns your site into a Model Context Protocol server. Every action is a typed tool an agent can discover and call, with your permissions and a full audit trail.

Steps

Open the NIBWP admin, enable AI Abilities, and mint a least-privilege application password. Set scopes so agents only touch what you allow.

Security note: with AI Abilities on, agents can execute PHP and filesystem operations. Use staging and keep backups.

Verify

Ask your agent to list recent posts. NIBWP routes it to nibwp/wp-list-posts and returns structured JSON. You are live.

  • Typed, schema-backed tools
  • Least-privilege permissions
  • A full audit log of every call
