Overview

WordPress MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that allows AI assistants to interact with WordPress sites via the WordPress REST API, enabling programmatic management of WordPress content.

To use the WordPress MCP Server, clone the repository, install the dependencies, and configure your WordPress site to enable REST API access and create an application password for authentication.

  • Create, retrieve, and update WordPress posts programmatically. - Secure authentication using WordPress application passwords. - Detailed error handling and response messages. - Pagination support for retrieving posts.
  1. Automating content creation for WordPress blogs.
  2. Integrating AI assistants to manage WordPress content.
  3. Building custom applications that interact with WordPress sites.
