$0MIT licensev2.9.5250+ abilities
Genuinely useful bridge between an AI agent and WordPress
“The CRUD abilities for posts, pages, and SEO fields work exactly as documented, and the granular per-ability toggle system is the right way to do this — it gave me confidence to actually turn it on.”
The time-saver is finally here!
“Now I just give Claude a doc with an image, and it automatically selects the category, sets the SEO title and meta description, all without me touching the WP dashboard.”
Finally – a native, no-compromise MCP server for WordPress
“The built-in native MCP server is the killer feature. No WordPress MCP Adapter, no external services, no Docker containers. It just works.”
Much needed AI MCP connector plugin
“Easy to install and configure. It offers a practical way to connect AI clients with WordPress and includes useful controls for managing access.”
Simple and reliable plugin
“Provides useful features, has a simple interface, and makes the overall experience more convenient. A solid and reliable plugin.”
What is a WordPress MCP plugin?
A WordPress MCP plugin turns your WordPress site into a Model Context Protocol server, so AI clients like Claude, Cursor and Codex can connect directly to it. Instead of generating text you copy and paste, the AI reads and edits your actual posts, pages, media and SEO metadata through a permission-controlled connection.
Why does MCP matter for WordPress?
The Model Context Protocol is an open standard for connecting AI clients to external tools. One MCP server works with every MCP-compatible client, so your site becomes something the AI can act on directly — no separate integration per AI tool, no copy-pasting between a chat window and the WordPress editor.
Is a free WordPress MCP plugin safe to use?
Safety comes from WordPress's own permission system, which applies to every action the AI takes. You choose which user the AI acts as, toggle each ability on or off individually, and can revoke access at any time. Every tool call is recorded in a self-hosted audit log, and the plugin is MIT-licensed and open source.
What's New in Version 2.9.5
OAuth Connector for Claude
Add your site URL as a custom connector in claude.ai, Claude Desktop or Claude mobile and sign in on your own WordPress login page — no config file, no API key, no header.
Configuration Generator
Pick your client — Claude, Cursor, Codex, Google Antigravity, OpenClaw or OpenCode — and copy or download a ready-made config. Cursor gets a one-click connector that installs the server for you.
Per-Ability Switches
250+ abilities, each with its own on/off toggle. Write abilities start disabled, capability checks run on every object, and the AI can never do more than the WordPress user it acts as.
Full Audit Log
Every tool call is recorded in your own database — tool, time, user, IP, outcome — with a filterable browser in the admin and automatic 90-day pruning.
Analytics & Performance Dashboard
Total requests, most-used tool, average response time and error rate at a glance, plus a per-category usage breakdown and a recent-requests performance log.
Auto-Detecting Integrations
WooCommerce, Yoast SEO, Rank Math, Advanced Custom Fields, Elementor, Gravity Forms, Contact Form 7 and WPForms — detected automatically, each adding its own abilities.
Why This Plugin, When There Are Others?
Actually Free Forever
No freemium tier, no 'Pro' upsell, no usage limits hiding behind an API key. Released under the MIT license on GitHub.
Video-Guided Setup
Every release ships alongside a tutorial on a channel with 150K+ subscribers. When something breaks, the fix usually lives in a video.
Works With Whatever AI You Use
Built on the open Model Context Protocol over Streamable HTTP. Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Google Antigravity, OpenClaw, OpenCode — if it speaks MCP, it speaks to your WordPress.
Built By a Working Agency
WebSensePro runs real client WordPress sites. The plugin solves problems we hit in production — not lab demos.
Permission-Controlled by Design
WordPress's own permission system applies to every action. Write abilities are off by default and every tool call is logged.
250+ Abilities and Growing
Posts, pages, custom post types, media, menus, themes, plugins, block templates, widgets, site health, WooCommerce store management, Yoast SEO, Rank Math, ACF, Elementor, Gravity Forms, Contact Form 7 and WPForms — auto-detected and ready to enable.
