Nucleo: WordPress page builder with an MCP server for AI agents

Nucleo builds WordPress pages from JSON documents compiled on save. Every frontend request receives HTML and CSS that are already built, so the page builder adds no runtime cost.

Nucleo includes an MCP server with OAuth 2.1. Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients read the site and create drafts with the permissions you approve. A quality engine checks SEO and accessibility before a page goes live.

Features

  • JSON document schema with field validation.

  • Core blocks: section, container, heading, text, image, button, menu, accordion, tabs, slider and more.

  • Compiler with HTML and CSS output, on save.

  • Header, footer, single, archive, search and 404 layouts.

  • Quality engine with SEO and accessibility checks.

  • Content model: custom post types, taxonomies and field groups, with repeater and relation fields.

  • MCP server for AI agents, with OAuth 2.1.

  • WP-CLI commands.

Requirements

  • WordPress 6.9 or later.

  • PHP 8.2 or later.

  • MySQL 5.7 or MariaDB 10.4 or later. OPcache is recommended.

Install

  1. Download the zip of the latest release from the Releases page, or from nucleowp.dev/en/download.

  2. In WordPress, open Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin and install the zip.

  3. Activate Nucleo. On activation the plugin checks PHP, WordPress, OPcache and write permissions.

Connect an AI agent

The MCP server answers at this address on your site:

https://your-site.com/wp-json/nucleo/v1/mcp

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http nucleo https://your-site.com/wp-json/nucleo/v1/mcp

WP-CLI, over STDIO, with the permissions of the given user:

wp nucleo mcp --user=admin

The client opens the authorization page in WordPress. You choose the scopes and approve. The full guide is at Connect an AI agent.
