Description
AgentMod is an AI Agent Platform built natively for WordPress. Unlike standard AI chatbot plugins, AgentMod acts as an orchestration layer on top of the Connectors, WP AI Client, and Abilities API infrastructure introduced in WordPress 7.0.
Instead of writing custom integration code (glue-code) for external services, AgentMod creates an Ability Economy: it reads abilities exposed by plugins like WooCommerce (create_order), FluentCRM (create_contact), or Amelia (book_appointment) directly from the WordPress Core Registry and makes them available to AI agents — turning your site into an autonomous operating platform.
Key Features (Free Version)
AI Orchestration Engine
A stateless, model-agnostic agent engine built on the native WordPress AI Client. Supports sequential and parallel multiple ability calls via WP_AI_Client_Ability_Function_Resolver.
Admin Chat Widget
A React-based chat panel triggered from the WordPress Admin Bar. Built with @wordpress/components Modal architecture. Includes a “New Topic” button to reset the session and conversation history at any time.
Context Scope Selector
A toggle control inside the chat composer that lets the user decide whether the AI agent can read site data or should operate on general knowledge only.
Search & Content Tools
– Search queries return a maximum of 20 post titles/excerpts per call.
– Full content processing is limited to a maximum of 5 post bodies at once. Requests like “Analyze all 500 posts” are gracefully declined.
– A maximum of 10 ability calls are allowed per message cycle.
Write Action Confirmation Modal
When an agent triggers a database-modifying ability such as create_post or send_email, an approval modal is shown to the user with a summary of the action. The operation is not executed until the user explicitly confirms.
Smart Response Rendering
– Plain text responses are rendered as Markdown with “Copy Text” and “Create Draft” action buttons.
– Code block responses (HTML, CSS, PHP, etc.) are displayed in a syntax-highlighted <pre> container with a “Copy Code” button.
Ability Registry Browser
A dedicated sub-menu page under AgentMod lists all abilities currently registered on WordPress Core Registry, with detailed information for each.
Secure System Directives
The PromptBuilder enforces strict system-level directives that prevent agents from performing destructive actions and require them to ask clarifying questions in ambiguous situations.
Developer Hook System
A comprehensive set of PHP and JavaScript hooks for extending AgentMod:
– Filters for prompt modification (before/after)
– Actions for ability execution lifecycle (before/after)
– ChatPanel UI customization hooks (add/remove tools, sections)
Provider Agnostic
AgentMod does not lock you into any specific AI provider. It works with any provider supported by the WordPress AI Client, including OpenAI, Anthropic, and others configured via provider plugins.
Requirements
- WordPress 7.0 or higher (requires native WP AI Client & Abilities API)
- PHP 7.4 or higher
- An active AI provider plugin compatible with WordPress AI Client

FAQ
Who is this plugin for?
AgentMod is designed for WordPress site owners, developers, and agencies who want to leverage AI agents to automate tasks on their site using the native WordPress Abilities API — without writing custom integration code for each service.
Does AgentMod work with any AI provider?
Yes. AgentMod is fully provider agnostic. It uses the native WordPress AI Client layer, so any AI provider plugin compatible with WordPress 7.0’s AI infrastructure will work.
What is an “Ability” in this context?
An Ability is a registered, callable action exposed by a WordPress plugin through the Core Abilities Registry. For example, WooCommerce might expose a
create_orderability, or a booking plugin might exposebook_appointment. AgentMod reads these automatically and makes them available to the AI agent.Can the AI agent delete my content?
No. Destructive actions (
delete,erase,trash) are strictly prohibited by system-level directives in AgentMod’s PromptBuilder. The agent will never execute a delete operation directly. Any write or modifying action additionally requires explicit user confirmation via an approval modal before it is executed.Is there a limit on how much content the AI can read?
Yes, hard limits are enforced to manage performance and token costs: – Search results: maximum 20 titles/excerpts per query – Full content reading: maximum 5 post bodies per cycle – Ability calls per message: maximum 10
Where can I see which Abilities are available?
Under the AgentMod menu in your WordPress admin, there is a dedicated Abilities sub-page that lists all abilities currently registered in the WordPress Core Registry, along with their details and parameters.
What happens if I want to create a post via the agent?
If you ask the agent to create a post, it will show you a confirmation modal summarizing the action before anything is written to the database. You must explicitly approve the action for it to proceed.
