WordPress MCP Server
The official remote MCP server from Automattic, the company behind WordPress.com. The AI can read and write posts and pages, manage the media library and comments, and check site stats.
Content operations benefit most directly — "publish this draft using the site's existing categories and tags" works because the AI can read the taxonomy you already have instead of inventing a pile of new tags.

Why use it
Good for: people running their own WordPress site who want AI help with content.
Before connecting: it can publish and modify live content. Have the AI create drafts only, and publish after human review — especially on a site with real readers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does it support both WordPress.com and self-hosted WordPress.org?
WordPress.com is supported; self-hosted sites connect via Jetpack. See the repo README for details.
Can I restrict it to drafts?
Yes — combine prompt constraints with user role permissions. Giving it an account that can only write drafts is the robust way.
