WordPress + MCP: Every Ability an AI Agent Can Call
Turn any WordPress site into an MCP server. Connect Claude, Cursor or ChatGPT and let it work through real, typed abilities — with a plan you approve before anything is written.

AI clients are great at writing, but they cannot safely operate a WordPress site. Screen-scraping the admin is brittle, and handing over raw database access is a non-starter for a client build.
NibWP turns WordPress into an MCP server. It exposes your site as real, typed tools an AI agent can call — read a page, draft a post, update a field, run an SEO pass — each one validated, logged, and gated behind your approval.
What you can do over MCP
Typed tools, not scraping
Agents work through real WordPress abilities with input validation — not brittle screen-scraping of the admin.
Content & fields
Draft, update and bulk-edit posts, pages and custom fields, just by describing the change.
Any MCP client
Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and ChatGPT — one endpoint, any client that speaks MCP.
Approve before write
Every write shows a plan first. Nothing changes on your site until you say yes.
Runs on WordPress core
No external service. Abilities run on your own site through WordPress and your plugins’ APIs.
Full audit log
Every action an agent takes is recorded and reviewable after the fact.
How it works
You connect once, then work in plain English:
- Install NibWP and create a WordPress application password — no code.
- Point your AI client at the MCP endpoint. Your site’s abilities appear as tools.
- Describe what you want. NibWP plans it and shows you exactly what it will do.
- Approve, and it writes to WordPress through typed, validated tools — then reports back.
The same endpoint works across every AI client you use.
Why typed tools beat scraping
A generic AI can click around the admin, but it breaks the moment the UI changes and can go off the rails. Typed MCP tools are different.
Screen-scraping an agent
- Breaks when the admin UI changes
- No validation — writes whatever it guesses
- Hard to see or undo what it did
WordPress + NibWP
- Real, versioned abilities with input validation
- Plans every change for your approval
- Logs every call for a full audit trail
Safe by default
Built for client sites, so control and traceability come first:
- Nothing is written without your approval.
- Every ability call is recorded in the audit log.
- Runs on WordPress core and your plugins’ own APIs — your content and site data stay on your server.
- Reads are read-only; writes are gated.
