## Description

MCP for WordPress by Kites.Dev turns your WordPress website into a fully compatible**
Model Context Protocol (MCP)** server. Built by [Kites.Dev](https://kites.dev), 
this plugin allows you to seamlessly connect your WordPress site directly to your
favorite AI assistants and environments—including **Claude Desktop**, **Cursor IDE**,**
Windsurf**, **ChatGPT / Custom GPTs**, **LangChain**, **AutoGen**, and custom Python
scripts.

#### What You Can Do With This Plugin

 * ✍️ **Draft, Edit & Publish Content Directly**: Ask your AI agent to draft new
   blog posts, rewrite existing articles, create pages, assign categories and tags,
   and publish or save as draft directly from your AI chat window.
 * 🖼️ **Manage Media Assets**: Upload images and featured graphics directly to your
   WordPress Media Library via your AI assistant.
 * 🔍 **Query & Update WordPress Data**: Search posts, pages, custom post types,
   and retrieve published content contextually for AI-assisted writing or research.
 * 🛠️ **Inspect Site Diagnostics & Schema**: Let your AI agent inspect active themes,
   plugin configurations, database table structures, and site health parameters 
   for fast site troubleshooting.
 * 🛡️ **Stay Safe with Read-Only Mode & Scope Guardrails**: Toggle global Read-Only
   mode or assign read-only scope to specific API keys to prevent AI models from
   executing destructive write operations.
 * 📊 **Real-Time Audit Logging**: Monitor every single incoming AI request, tool
   invocation payload, response code, client IP address, and execution duration 
   from your WordPress dashboard.

#### Supported AI Tools & Clients

 * **Claude Desktop**: Native JSON-RPC 2.0 and Server-Sent Events (SSE) support 
   via `claude_desktop_config.json`.
 * **Cursor & Windsurf IDEs**: Interact with your live site while building themes
   or plugins.
 * **OpenAI & Custom GPTs**: Connect custom actions via standard HTTP POST endpoints.
 * **LangChain & AutoGen Frameworks**: Automate content pipelines and scheduled 
   publishing programmatically.

#### Key Features

 * **Full MCP Specification Support**: Support for JSON-RPC 2.0 transport over HTTP
   POST and SSE (Server-Sent Events).
 * **Robust Security**: Hashed API keys (SHA-256), IP Whitelisting, and rate limiting
   per key/IP.
 * **Granular Capability Enforcement**: All MCP tool executions validate native 
   WordPress user capabilities (`edit_posts`, `publish_posts`, `manage_options`).
 * **Read-Only Mode Option**: Enforce read-only access globally to prevent AI agents
   from making destructive modifications.
 * **Detailed Audit Logging**: Inspect every AI tool invocation, payload, response
   code, IP address, and execution duration.
 * **Modern WP Admin Interface**: Built-in key generator and live log viewer.
