View on GitHub ↗Homepage ↗Shim MCP — WordPress MCP Server for Claude Code, Cursor, and any MCP client
A self-contained Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for WordPress, built for developers. Install one plugin and your WordPress site becomes an MCP server that Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, or any MCP-compatible AI client can drive — 56 abilities across posts, pages, media, users, plugins, menus, widgets, comments, options and system management.
No companion plugins. No cloud relay. No account anywhere. Your site talks to your AI client and nothing sits in between.

Worth being precise about what's different here, because several WordPress MCP plugins mention WP-CLI. In those, WP-CLI is a tool the AI can call — the model asks the remote server to run a wp command on your behalf, over an authenticated HTTP connection. Useful, but the connection is still remote, still HTTP, st
