What is an MCP server?

One protocol between your AI and everything WordPress can do.

The Model Context Protocol is a shared language for AI clients. Master Control Press exposes WordPress as an MCP server — so the AI reasons about your content and takes real actions, instead of you clicking through admin screens.

01 · YOUR SITE
WordPress Abilities API
Every action your site can perform — Core, ACF, WooCommerce, theme — exposed as typed abilities.
02 · MASTER CONTROL PRESS
MCP Adapter
Free & open-source. Translates 205 abilities into the Model Context Protocol.
03 · YOU DRIVE
Your AI client
Claude · Cursor · OpenClaw. Natural language in, verified actions out.

Problems we solve

The busywork, delegated.

Five things every WordPress operator loses hours to — and the one sentence that ends each of them.

“I manage 12 client dashboards and half my day is just logging in.”

WITH MCP →
update every plugin across my 12 sites

“Bulk edits mean CSV exports and an afternoon of cleanup.”

WITH MCP →
add a “clearance” badge to every out-of-stock product

“My content team can’t touch ACF fields without a developer.”

WITH MCP →
set the hero subtitle on the pricing page

“SEO backfill is death by a thousand posts.”

WITH MCP →
write meta descriptions for every 2024 post missing one

“Store ops is an endless loop of WooCommerce clicking.”

WITH MCP →
refund order #4821 and email the customer an apology

See yourself here?

Every one of these is a real ability. There are 231 more.

How is this different

Dashboards manage. Automators trigger. MCP reasons.

MainWP and ManageWP give you more screens. Uncanny Automator and Zapier fire fixed if-this-then-that rules. MCP understands the content and handles the exceptions.
