WSP MCP - AI Agents Connector

WSP MCP - AI Agents Connector turns your WordPress site into a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. AI clients can read and edit posts, pages, categories, tags, media, comments, users, and (when installed) Yoast SEO meta and Elementor page content — all under granular, per-ability admin control. The plugin ships its own native MCP server. You do not need the WordPress MCP Adapter or any companion plugin: activate, copy your connection details from MCP > Connection, and connect. WooCommerce tools (products, orders, refunds, coupons, customers, reports) are available when WooCommerce is active, Advanced Custom Fields tools (field groups, fields, values, post types, taxonomies, options pages) when ACF is active, Ultimate Addons for Elementor (UAE) tools (widgets, templates, layout building, and settings) when UAE is active, and Gravity Forms tools (forms, entries, notifications, and confirmations) when Gravity Forms is active. Built and maintained by the WebSensePro team. For documentation, setup guides, and connection help, visit the plugin home at freewordpressmcp.com.

• Built-in MCP server over a single REST endpoint (Streamable HTTP, JSON-RPC 2.0) — no external dependency.
• Per-ability on/off toggles in MCP > Settings; write abilities are off by default.
• Two authentication methods: WordPress Application Passwords (HTTP Basic) or a plugin-generated API key (Authorization: Bearer or X-WSP-MCP-API-Key).
• Capability checks on every tool — an AI client can only do what its authenticated user can do.
• Full Audit Log in MCP > Audit Log: every tool call is recorded (tool name, time, user, IP, success/denied/error) in your own database — self-hosted, no external service, visible to administrators only.
• Optional Yoast SEO and Elementor tools, shown only when those plugins are active.

• Built by: WebSensePro

2.7.0

• New: Full Audit Log. Every MCP tools/call request is now recorded in a dedicated, self-hosted database table (wp_wsp_mcp_audit_log) — tool name, timestamp, acting user, request IP, and outcome (success, denied, or error). No external API or paid service is involved.
• New: MCP > Audit Log admin page to browse, filter (by status or tool), and clear the log. Restricted to administrators (manage_options), matching every other MCP admin screen.
• New: Log entries older than 90 days (filterable via wsp_mcp_audit_log_retention_days) are pruned automatically by a daily cron task, so the table stays lightweight.

2.6.8

• Fixed: "Session not found or expired. Re-initialize." on the very first request after initialize. Clients that send tools/list immediately (Claude Desktop via mcp-remote, and any fast script) landed in the same second as the initialize that created the session, so the expiry-sliding UPDATE wrote the value already stored and MySQL/MariaDB reported 0 changed rows — which the plugin read as a missing session. A zero-row update is now confirmed with an existence check before the session is rejected. Adding a delay before the second request is no longer necessary. Fixes GitHub #30.

2.6.7

• Fixed: The "Copy" buttons on the MCP > Connection page did nothing on sites served over plain HTTP (such as local development hosts). The browser Clipboard API is only available in a secure context (HTTPS or localhost), so the copy now falls back to a hidden textarea when it is unavailable. All six client tabs are fixed.
• Changed: Each ability group header now shows a green "N Enabled" and a red "N Disabled" pill instead of a single "enabled / total" badge, so partially-enabled groups are obvious at a glance. Counts update live as you flip switches.
• New: Sidebar cards on the MCP > Settings and MCP > Connection pages linking to our video tutorials and the full abilities directory at freewordpressmcp.com.
• Compatibility: Verified against WordPress 7.0.3. No plugin changes were required — the kses and HTTP URL-validation fixes in that release are inherited through core APIs. Because this plugin exposes tools to AI agents, we recommend running WordPress 7.0.3 or 6.9.6+ so the SSRF and CSS-injection fixes are in place.

2.6.6

• New: Direct file upload for media. wsp_upload_media (Upload Media) now accepts base64 file content via a new data parameter — an MCP client can upload a file attached to the chat straight into the media library without first hosting it at a public URL. The url parameter still works as before; pass either one. An optional mime_type hint and data: URI prefixes are supported. Only image types (jpg, png, gif, webp) are allowed, decoded bytes are written through media_handle_sideload(), and the tool still requires upload_files. Fixes GitHub #17.

2.6.5

• New: Elementor Advanced Design Tools — 11 tools for high-fidelity design workflows: get/update active kit, regenerate CSS, get widget schema, duplicate/move element, convert CSS to Elementor settings, get/update page settings, copy styles, and get breakpoints. All off by default under the "Elementor" group. Security: write tools run settings through wsp_elementor_sanitize_settings() (strips custom_css, custom_attributes, and dynamic keys); update-active-kit and regenerate-css require manage_options, the rest require edit_posts.

2.6.4

• New: WPForms suite — 12 tools (Lite and Pro) covering forms (list, get, describe-schema, get-form-stats, create, update-settings, add-field, update-field, delete) and Pro entries (list, get, delete). All write tools off by default under the "WPForms" group; only registered when WPForms is active. Uses WPForms' native capabilities: wpforms_view_forms / wpforms_edit_forms for forms and wpforms_view_entries / wpforms_edit_entries for entries.

2.6.3

• New: Contact Form 7 suite — 10 tools covering forms (list, get, create, update, delete), Flamingo entries (list, get, moderate), form validation, and integrations status. All write tools off by default under the "Contact Form 7" group; only registered when CF7 is active. Uses CF7's native capabilities wpcf7_edit_contact_forms and wpcf7_delete_contact_forms; get-integrations requires manage_options.

2.6.2

• Docs: documented the complete 18-tool Gravity Forms suite (forms, entries, notifications, confirmations) across the readme, plugin docs, and changelog; the 2.6.1 notes under-reported it as 11 tools and omitted the notification, confirmation, and form-settings write tools. Corrected the capability name to gravityforms_create_form. No behavioral code changes.

2.6.1

• New: Gravity Forms suite — 18 tools covering forms (list, get, create, update, delete, update settings), entries (list, get, update, delete with trash/permanent), notifications (get, create, update, delete), and confirmations (get, create, update, delete). All write tools are off by default; list-forms and get-form are on by default. Uses Gravity Forms' own granular capabilities (gravityforms_edit_forms, gravityforms_create_form, gravityforms_view_entries, etc.). Only registered when Gravity Forms is active (class_exists('GFAPI')).
• Docs: added a video tutorial to the plugin description and three connection walkthrough videos (OpenClaw, Google Antigravity 2.0, Codex) to the FAQ.

2.6.0

• New: Ultimate Addons for Elementor (UAE) tool suite — 45 tools covering widgets (list, check usage, activate, deactivate, bulk toggle), templates (list, get, create, duplicate, update, trash, restore Header/Footer/Blocks templates), layout building (add sections, add columns, move elements, build from JSON), and settings (UAE settings, theme info, extensions, design-system tokens). All off by default and only registered when UAE is active.
• Fixed: adding an Elementor column no longer creates a container instead — the type validation in the add-container handler now accepts the column type.
• Security: all UAE string inputs are sanitized with wp_kses_post(); each tool enforces a strict capability check (edit_posts, publish_posts, or manage_options).

2.5.0

• New: Full media library tool suite. Adds six media tools — List Media (browse/search by type, keyword, or date), Count Media (counts grouped by MIME type plus a total), Update Media (title, alt text, caption, description), Delete Media (permanent), Upload Media (from a URL), and Upload Media From URL — and repurposes Get Media to return the full metadata of a single attachment by ID. Every tool is off by default and toggled from MCP > Settings.

2.4.1

• Security: ACF field-value write tools no longer accept raw code. Every value written via update_field() — for posts, users, terms, and options — is now recursively sanitized (arrays walked; each string run through wp_kses_post()) so <script>/<style> and inline event handlers can no longer be stored through the MCP tools. Legitimate WYSIWYG/HTML field content still works. Addresses the WordPress.org "arbitrary code insertion" review finding.

2.4.0

• New: OpenCode connection tab on the MCP > Connection page — a sixth copy-paste config snippet joining Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, Antigravity, and OpenClaw. OpenCode connects natively over remote HTTP (no Node.js bridge); the snippet is a full ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json file with the API key inlined in the header, ready to create and paste.

2.3.1

• Security: Elementor write tools no longer accept raw code. Code-bearing widget types (HTML, Shortcode, Code) are rejected, code-bearing settings (Custom CSS, Custom Attributes) are stripped, and all text settings are sanitized with wp_kses_post() so scripts cannot be injected via _elementor_data.
• Security: ACF options-page value reads now require manage_options (was edit_posts), matching the admin-level nature of global options.
• Removed: unused legacy wsp_register_acf_abilities() dual-mode registration helper (dead code, not hooked).
• Changed: Requires at least now uses the major-only WordPress version format (6.9).

2.3.0

• New: 27 Advanced Custom Fields tools — field groups (list, get, create, update, delete, import), fields (list, get, create, update, delete, duplicate, sync), values with dot-notation deep get/set (delete, get-all, bulk-update, field object), custom post types, taxonomies, and options pages.
• All ACF tools are off by default and only registered when ACF is active. Structural changes (groups, fields, CPTs, taxonomies, options pages) require manage_options; value reads/writes enforce per-object capabilities (edit_post, edit_user, list_users, manage_categories, manage_options).
• Changed: plugin slug renamed to wsp-mcp-ai-agents-connector (folder, main file, and text domain) to match the public name ahead of WordPress.org submission.
• Breaking: the plugin folder name changed — on existing installs, remove the old copy and activate the renamed plugin. Saved settings, the sessions table, and the API key are preserved.

2.2.0

• Removed: the MCP > Config Files page and the legacy dual-mode Abilities-API / mcp-adapter registration path. The plugin is now native-only.
• Changed: bookmarks to the old Config Files page now redirect to MCP > Connection.
• Breaking: connections made before v2.0 through the WordPress MCP Adapter must be re-created using the native endpoint on MCP > Connection.

2.1.0

• New: 15 WooCommerce tools — products (list, get, create, create variation, update), orders (list, update status, refund), coupons (create, list), order notes, customers, sales report, low-stock alerts, and review moderation.
• All WooCommerce tools are off by default and only registered when WooCommerce is active.
• Financial and PII tools (refund, customers, coupons) require the manage_woocommerce capability.
• Product/variation image URLs are sideloaded safely; SSL bypass is scoped to the single request and environment-gated.

2.0.0

• New: built-in native MCP server — no companion plugin or WordPress MCP Adapter required.
• New: MCP > Connection page with endpoint URL, API key, and per-client config tabs for Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, Antigravity, and OpenClaw (native, no adapter).
• New: Application Password + API key authentication; per-tool capability enforcement.
• New: DB-backed session store with daily cleanup.
• Improved: MCP > Settings groups are now collapsible accordions with live enabled/total counts.
• Dual-mode: existing Abilities-API connections keep working when that transport is present.

1.3.0

• Added Yoast SEO abilities (read/update SEO title, meta description, focus keyphrase).

1.2.1

• Added OpenClaw tab to the Config Files page.

1.2.0

• Elementor abilities, modular architecture, auto config generator.
