Integrations

  • Integrates with Automattic services as the package is published under the @automattic namespace and references their wordpress-mcp plugin.

  • Provides access to WooCommerce functionality through its REST API using customer keys and secrets for authentication.

  • Serves as a bridge between local MCP clients and remote WordPress servers, enabling communication with WordPress sites via their REST API.

MCP WordPress Remote

The mcp-wordpress-remote package acts as a bridge between local Model Context Protocol (MCP) clients and remote WordPress MCP servers. By leveraging npx, you can execute this package without a global installation, simplifying the setup process.

WordPress MCP plugin

You have to install the wordpress-mcp plugin on your WordPress website, and enable MCP Functionality on Settings > MCP Settings.

Why

  1. Most of the clients does not suport SSE or Streamable communications protocols.
  2. Improved eficiency. This proxy will not keep an open connection to your website, and it will only make simple REST API requests to your website when needed.
  3. Oauth2.1 is not yet available on wordpress out of the box.
  4. Security trough WordPress API passwords and WooCommerce REST API cosumer key and secret
  5. Easy to use. See installation instructions below.

Usage
