Connect Claude or ChatGPT to your WordPress site and let it do the SEO work for you.** Novasira gives your AI assistant a clear view of your site’s SEO: titles, descriptions, images, links, schema and sitemaps. Ask it to audit your site. It finds what is holding your pages back, puts the fixes in order of importance, and makes the changes when you say go. Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, Codex, Gemini CLI and any other MCP client. Setup takes a few minutes, and Novasira walks you through it. It sees more than a crawler does, including drafts, private pages and every image’s alt text, so it catches problems that tools looking only at your public pages miss. Novasira does not promise rankings or make up traffic numbers. It finds and fixes the on-site problems that keep good pages from ranking. **What you can ask your AI to do** * “Audit this site’s SEO and tell me what to fix first.” * “Find every image with no alt text and write good ones.” * “Which pages have a missing or duplicate title or meta description?” * “Which pages are not linked to from anywhere else on the site?” * “Check my schema markup and my sitemap for problems.” * “Rewrite the title and description for this page, and show me before saving.” **What you get** * **A site health score and a ranked list of what to fix first**, from checks that run on your own site. * **Twenty-six SEO areas**: full audit, content quality, internal links, schema, sitemaps, images and alt text, technical SEO, AI search, local SEO, products and more. Each has written guidance and a prompt you can copy. * **Nine MCP tools** your agent can call: scan an area, read the method, read a page’s SEO, list images with no alt text, check internal links, read schema, and write SEO fields or alt text when you ask it to. * **A step-by-step Connect screen** with ready-made setup for each AI tool. * **Sign in with WordPress (OAuth 2.1)** with per-connection permissions, or an application password limited to Novasira’s own endpoint. * **Works alongside Yoast SEO, Rank Math and SEOPress.** It reads what they store and does not change their settings. * **No outbound requests, no telemetry, no account, no API key.** #### Twenty-six areas The plugin organises its work into twenty-six SEO areas. Twenty of them are **live**: WordPress holds the data, so the area can be scanned against this site. Six are ** advisory**: the answer lives outside your site, so the area ships the method and the prompt and says so plainly. Live areas: full audit, action plan, single page, content quality, content brief, topic clusters, internal links, programmatic pages, technical, sitemaps, schema, languages, images, alt text, search experience, AI search, agent readability, drift, products, local. Advisory areas: Search Console, backlinks, competitors, keyword data, maps listing, and the orchestrator page that says which area answers which question. The advisory split is deliberate. Impressions, rankings, referring domains and keyword volumes are not stored anywhere in WordPress. Novasira ships no API key, no crawler and no bundled data service, so for those areas it gives you the method and the prompt rather than a number it would have had to invent. #### Guidance, not a score Every area carries a written guidance document, which an agent reads through an MCP tool. Each one answers the same five questions: what the area is about, what Novasira can actually see from inside WordPress, how to tell a real problem from a number that merely looks bad, what to do about it cheapest-first, and how you would know you were wrong. In the admin, each area has a card naming what it covers, whether it is live or advisory, and a prompt you can copy and hand to your agent. That last question is the point. A finding without a falsifiability check is a guess with a chart next to it. #### The agent side Novasira registers its tools as WordPress abilities and serves them over a single MCP endpoint on your own site, using the bundled `wordpress/mcp-adapter` (GPL-2.0- or-later). You connect your agent to your site; nothing is brokered through a third party. Only an authenticated user with the required capability can reach the endpoint. ** Novasira Connect** walks through it in a few steps: switch the MCP server on, pick your AI tool (Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, Codex, Gemini CLI and more), choose how it signs in, and copy the ready-made connection for that tool. An agent can sign in in either of two ways: * **Sign in with WordPress (OAuth 2.1).** Clients that support MCP authorization, such as Claude, discover the sign-in automatically. An administrator approves each connection on a consent screen, choosing which permissions it gets (read, write, manage), and can revoke it at any time from **Novasira Connect**. This uses dynamic client registration, so any client can ask to connect; nothing is granted until an administrator approves. * **Application password.** Works with every client and every host. The Connect screen can create one for you through WordPress core’s own application password API, named “Novasira…”, and puts it straight into a prompt and a config snippet for the tool you picked. The password is shown once, in that page view only; Novasira never stores it (WordPress keeps only its hash, as it does for any application password). A key created here is accepted only on Novasira’s MCP endpoint: WordPress refuses it on every other REST route and on XML-RPC. Keys created here are listed, and can be revoked, under **Manage connections and keys**. Either way, the agent reaches Novasira’s own tools and nothing else. They read your content and SEO data, and write only SEO fields: titles, meta descriptions, canonical URLs, slugs and image alt text. The endpoint does not carry the MCP adapter’s generic tools for running other plugins’ abilities, and no tool installs or changes plugins, themes, users or site settings. There is no Novasira server: the agent you choose connects straight to your site. For OAuth connections Novasira stores, on your own site: the registered client’s name and redirect addresses, and for each approved connection a hash of its access and refresh tokens (never the tokens themselves), the permissions granted, timestamps, and the IP address it last connected from. Access tokens last 30 days and renew while in use; an unused connection expires after 180 days. A token is accepted only on Novasira’s own MCP endpoint, never on the rest of the REST API. Everything the agent can read, that user could already read in wp-admin, and a tool that edits a post refuses anybody who could not edit that post by hand. #### Credits * `wordpress/mcp-adapter` and `wordpress/php-mcp-schema` by the WordPress AI Team( GPL-2.0-or-later), bundled unmodified in `vendor/`. Sources: https://github.com/ WordPress/mcp-adapter and https://github.com/WordPress/php-mcp-schema #### What it reads from other SEO plugins Where Yoast SEO, Rank Math or SEOPress is installed, Novasira reads the title and description each one stores so that its report reflects what your site actually outputs. It does not replace them, convert between them, or change their settings. ### External services **Novasira makes no outbound requests at all.** It contacts no API, no licence server, no update service, no analytics endpoint and no CDN, and sends nothing anywhere. There is no account to create and no key to enter. The only personal data it stores is described under “The agent side” above (the last IP address of each OAuth connection), kept on your own site; suggested privacy-policy text is added under Settings Privacy. The **Connect** screen has two buttons that open a third-party website in a new tab, only when you click them. Nothing is sent automatically: * **Add the connector to Claude.ai** opens claude.ai’s connector settings, with this site’s MCP endpoint address and site name in the link so you do not have to type them. Provided by Anthropic. Terms: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/consumer- terms · Privacy: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/privacy * **Open ChatGPT connectors** opens chatgpt.com’s connector settings. Provided by OpenAI. Terms: https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use · Privacy: https:// openai.com/policies/privacy-policy The plugin bundles `wordpress/mcp-adapter` (GPL-2.0-or-later, by the WordPress AI Team) and `wordpress/php-mcp-schema`. The adapter’s role is to **serve** an MCP endpoint on this site — an inbound route under this site’s own REST API. It does not call out either. Reaching that endpoint requires authenticating as a user with the capability described above; an unauthenticated request gets nothing. The application-password connection snippets tell your AI client to start @automattic/ mcp-wordpress-remote with `npx`. That is an open-source npm package (MIT licence, by Automattic) which your own computer downloads from the npm registry when the client starts it; Novasira does not download, bundle or run it. It connects only to this site’s MCP endpoint, using the credentials in the snippet. Source: https:// github.com/Automattic/mcp-wordpress-remote · npm terms: https://docs.npmjs.com/policies/ terms · npm privacy: https://docs.npmjs.com/policies/privacy If you connect an AI agent to that endpoint, the agent is software you chose and run, and whatever it reads from your site travels wherever you have configured it to travel. That is a property of your agent and your MCP client, not of this plugin. Novasira itself never initiates a connection. ## Screenshots [⌊The SEO dashboard: site health, what to fix first, and scores by area.⌉⌊The SEO dashboard: site health, what to fix first, and scores by area.⌉[ The SEO dashboard: site health, what to fix first, and scores by area.

Upload the plugin to `/wp-content/plugins/novasira/`, or install it from the Plugins screen. 2. Activate it. There is nothing to install: no tables are created and no settings are required. 3. Open **Novasira** in the admin menu. The Dashboard shows what the site looks like;** SEO areas** lists all twenty-six with their guidance. 4. To work with an agent, open **Connect** and follow the steps: pick your AI tool, choose Sign in or Application password, and copy what the last step gives you into the tool. WordPress 6.9 or later is required: the Abilities API that Novasira registers its tools with is part of WordPress core from 6.9. ## FAQ ### How do I connect ChatGPT, Claude or Cursor to my WordPress site? Open **Novasira Connect**, pick your AI tool, choose Sign in or Application password, and copy what the last step gives you into the tool. Clients that support MCP sign- in, such as Claude, find the sign-in on their own. ### What is MCP? The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that lets an AI assistant call tools on another system. Novasira runs an MCP server on your own site, so the assistant talks to your site directly. Nothing goes through a third party. ### Which AI tools work with it? Any MCP client. The Connect screen has ready-made setup for ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, Codex, Gemini CLI and more. ### Is it safe to give an AI access to my site? The agent reaches Novasira’s own tools and nothing else. They read your content and SEO data, and write only SEO fields: titles, meta descriptions, canonical URLs, slugs and image alt text. No tool installs or changes plugins, themes, users or site settings. You choose the permissions on the sign-in screen, and you can revoke any connection from **Novasira Connect** at any time. ### Does Novasira send my site’s data anywhere? No. The plugin makes no outbound HTTP requests of any kind. It has no update server, no licence check, no analytics and no telemetry. See the External services section below. ### Is this a replacement for Yoast, Rank Math or SEOPress? No. Those plugins output your titles, descriptions and schema to visitors. Novasira reads what they have stored and reports on it. Run whichever you already use; Novasira works alongside it and does not change its settings. ### Does it work without an AI agent? Partly. The admin screens show each area’s findings and guidance, and you can act on them by hand. The abilities are only useful with an MCP client connected, and the advisory areas are mostly a method and a prompt, which is of more use to an agent than to a dashboard. ### Will it change my content? Only when asked. Reading is the default. Two abilities write: one sets a single page’s SEO fields (title, description, canonical URL, slug, noindex and nofollow), and one sets an image’s alt text. Each takes an explicit call naming the post or image, needs a connection granted the write permission, and refuses anyone who could not edit that item by hand. The prompts the plugin supplies tell the agent to show you the change and wait. ### Do the advisory areas work if I have no API keys? They give you the method, the prompt and an honest statement about where the numbers live. They do not produce numbers. If your agent has its own access to Search Console, a keyword data provider or the open web, it can bring the numbers; the plugin will not pretend to. ### Does it promise better rankings? No. No plugin can. Novasira reports what your site contains and what the method says about it. What search engines do with your site afterwards is not something this plugin, or any plugin, controls. ### Which capability is required? By default: * The Novasira admin menu, Connect, Status and Settings require an administrator(` manage_options`). Only an administrator can approve an OAuth connection. * Reading through the MCP tools, and the Tools and Docs screens, require edit_posts. Writing through the MCP tools also requires `edit_posts`, plus permission to edit the specific post or image. Both MCP capabilities can be raised under **Novasira Settings** to publish_posts,` edit_others_posts` or `manage_options`. They cannot be lowered below `edit_posts`, so subscribers can never reach the tools. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Novasira – AI SEO Agent for WordPress” is open source software.
