Secure by Design

Capability checks on every tool call, SHA-256 token hashing, SSRF protection on URL downloads, sensitive meta key blocklist, IP allowlist support, and 60 req/min rate limiting per IP.

Admin Dashboard

Server status, MCP endpoint URL, OAuth client list, and a live activity feed — all from one admin screen. Includes a 7-day sparkline widget on the WordPress dashboard.

Extensible via Filter

Register custom MCP tools from any plugin or theme using bcs_mcp_register_tool() or the bcs_mcp_tools filter. Your tools appear automatically in the AI client's tool list.

Setup

Connected in under
5 minutes

No developer. No API keys to manage manually. Just WordPress and your AI client.

Install & Activate

Install from WordPress.org and activate. The MCP server starts immediately — no configuration needed to enable the endpoint.

Paste MCP URL into AI Client

Copy the MCP URL from MCP Manager → Dashboard and add it to Claude.ai, Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client. The client handles OAuth registration automatically.

Approve & Start Using

You'll be redirected to an authorization screen in your own wp-admin. Approve once — the AI client manages tokens from that point. Ask Claude to write a post, update products, or query any WordPress data.

FAQ

Common questions

Anything else? Open an issue on the WordPress.org support forum.

What is the Model Context Protocol?

MCP is an open standard created by Anthropic that lets AI assistants connect to external tools and data sources in a structured, authenticated way. When your WordPress site runs an MCP server, Claude and other AI clients can see and use your WordPress data — writing posts, managing products, updating SEO — without you needing to copy/paste anything.

Which AI clients are compatible?

Any client that implements the MCP specification. Tested and confirmed working with Claude (claude.ai and Claude Desktop), ChatGPT, Cursor, and Windsurf. Gemini uses the same standard protocol and is expected to work via Google AI Studio's MCP integrations. The plugin uses Streamable HTTP transport with a legacy SSE fallback so it works with both new and older client versions.

Is my WordPress site secure when an AI is connected?

Every tool call enforces WordPress capabilities — the AI can only do what your user account is allowed to do. Tokens are stored as SHA-256 hashes, never plaintext. PKCE is required on every OAuth flow. Sensitive meta keys (passwords, session tokens, API secrets) are on a permanent blocklist. You can further restrict access with the IP allowlist feature.

Does this plugin send data to ByteCore Stack or any third party?

No. The plugin contains no analytics, telemetry, or tracking of any kind. The only outbound HTTP call it makes is when the wp_upload_media_from_url tool is explicitly invoked by your connected AI client to download an image — and even then it connects to the URL the AI specified, not to any ByteCore Stack server.

Do WooCommerce, ACF, and Elementor tools require extra setup?

No. They are included in the plugin and activate automatically when their respective plugins are detected. If WooCommerce is not installed, WooCommerce tools simply don't appear in the AI's tool list — no errors, no extra configuration.

I see "Couldn't register with sign-in service" in Claude. How do I fix it?

This usually means the OAuth rewrite rules haven't been flushed. Log in to wp-admin once — the plugin auto-flushes on the first admin page load after activation or update. If the error persists, go to Settings → Permalinks and click Save Changes to force a full rewrite flush.

Can I add my own custom MCP tools?

Yes. Use bcs_mcp_register_tool( 'my_tool', 'Description', $schema, $callback ) from any plugin or theme, or hook into the bcs_mcp_tools filter directly. Your custom tools appear in the AI client's tool list alongside the built-in 150+.
