Kuvaus

Enable Abilities for MCP gives you full control over which WordPress Abilities are available to AI assistants through the MCP (Model Context Protocol) Adapter.

WordPress 6.9 introduced the Abilities API, allowing external tools to discover and execute actions on your site. This plugin extends that functionality by registering a comprehensive set of content management abilities and providing a simple admin interface to toggle each one on or off.

Features

  • 53 abilities organized in 11 categories: Core, Read, Write, SEO (Rank Math), SEO (SEOPress), SEO (Yoast), Utility, Multilanguage, Custom Post Types, WooCommerce, and The Events Calendar
  • WooCommerce integration — dedicated abilities to manage products, orders, and customers using the native WooCommerce API (HPOS-compatible, formally declared)
  • The Events Calendar integration — list, get, create, and update events with venue, organizer, and date filters
  • Admin dashboard with toggle switches for each ability
  • Per-ability control — expose only what you need
  • Secure by design — proper capability checks, input sanitization, and per-post permission validation
  • WPCS compliant — fully passes WordPress Coding Standards (phpcs)
  • MCP-ready — all abilities include show_in_rest and mcp.public metadata

UKK

Do I need anything else for this plugin to work?

Yes. This plugin requires WordPress 6.9+ (which includes the Abilities API) and the MCP Adapter plugin to connect abilities with AI assistants like Claude.

Are all abilities enabled by default?

Yes. On first activation, all abilities are enabled. You can disable any of them from Settings > WP Abilities.

Is it safe to enable write abilities?

Write abilities respect WordPress capabilities. For example, creating a post requires the publish_posts capability, and editing checks per-post permissions. The MCP user must have the appropriate WordPress role.

Does it work on Multisite?

Yes. The plugin can be network-activated. Each site in the network has its own ability configuration.

Does it work with WooCommerce?

Yes. The Custom Post Types section automatically detects WooCommerce products, orders, coupons, and any other registered post type. You can list, create, update, and delete items with full access to WooCommerce meta fields like _price, _sku, _stock_status, _regular_price, and more.

Can I add custom abilities?

This plugin registers abilities using the standard wp_register_ability() API. You can register additional abilities in your own plugin using the wp_abilities_api_init hook.

This wonderful plugin not only brings the ability to use WordPress.com’s MCP to the self-hosted version, it also expands its capabilities and makes it something really useful. I’m very satisfied with how it works now, but I’m already excited to see what’s next.

Muutosloki

2.0.10

  • Fix: ewpa/update-rankmath-schema — added missing permission_callback required by WP_Ability; absence caused a PHP notice on every page load and prevented the ability from registering correctly

2.0.9

  • Fix: ewpa/update-rankmath-schema now correctly discoverable by MCP adapters — added additionalProperties: true to the schema_data input parameter so WordPress accepts the object schema during ability registration

2.0.8

  • New: ewpa/update-rankmath-schema ability — writes a structured-data schema block (FAQPage, Article, Product, VideoObject, etc.) to a Rank Math schema meta key as a PHP-serialized array, so Rank Math renders it as JSON-LD in <head>; supports 20 schema types
  • Fix: ewpa/update-post-meta now blocks rank_math_schema_* keys and returns a clear error directing users to ewpa/update-rankmath-schema instead — prevents PHP fatal errors caused by storing raw JSON strings in a field that Rank Math expects to hold PHP-serialized arrays
  • Updated: Total abilities: 54 in 11 categories

2.0.7

  • New: ewpa/get-active-plugins utility ability — returns all active plugins with name, version, and detected capabilities (SEO, multilanguage, WooCommerce, Events Calendar)
  • New: Multilanguage section — ewpa/set-post-language assigns a language code to an existing post via Polylang or WPML
  • New: Multilanguage section — ewpa/link-post-translation links two posts as translations of each other in the same translation group via Polylang or WPML
  • New: Multilanguage section — ewpa/get-post-translations returns the full translation map for a post: language code, post ID, title, permalink, and status for each available translation via Polylang or WPML
  • New: language and translation_of parameters added to ewpa/create-post — set the language and link a translation group in a single call when Polylang or WPML is active
  • New: ewpa_get_translation_plugin() helper — detects the active multilanguage plugin (polylang, wpml, or empty string)
  • Fix: input schema for abilities with no parameters omits the properties key — prevents PHP Cannot use object of type stdClass as array error in WordPress schema validation
  • Updated: Total abilities: 53 in 11 categories

2.0.6

  • New: ewpa/get-post-meta utility ability — reads any single post meta field by exact key; returns the value and a found flag indicating whether the key exists; companion to ewpa/update-post-meta
  • New: ewpa_after_update_post_meta action hook — fires after every ewpa/update-post-meta write with ($post_id, $meta_key, $meta_value); SEO plugins can use it to flush their internal meta cache (e.g. TSF, AIOSEO)

2.0.5

  • Fix: WooCommerce and The Events Calendar ability registrations now use 'label' instead of 'name' — resolves PHP notices from WP_Abilities_Registry::register on every page load
  • Fix: WooCommerce and TEC abilities now use 'execute_callback' instead of 'callback' — abilities were registered but never executed
  • Fix: 'woocommerce' and 'tec' categories now registered in ewpa_register_ability_categories() — abilities now appear correctly in the Abilities Explorer
  • Credit: props @magicwand for the detailed report with root cause analysis and local fix

2.0.4

  • Compatibility: Tested and confirmed compatible with WordPress 7.0
  • Fix: EWPA_VERSION constant corrected to match plugin header version (was stuck at 2.0.2)

2.0.3

  • New: SEOPress section — ewpa/get-seopress reads SEO title, description, focus keyword, canonical URL, robots (noindex/nofollow/noarchive/noimageindex/nosnippet), Open Graph, and Twitter Card for any post or page
  • New: SEOPress section — ewpa/update-seopress updates any combination of those fields; only provided fields are modified
  • New: Yoast SEO section — ewpa/yoast-get-seo reads SEO title, description, focus keyphrase, canonical URL, robots (noindex/nofollow/advanced), Open Graph, and Twitter Card
  • New: Yoast SEO section — ewpa/yoast-update-seo updates any combination of those fields; only provided fields are modified
  • New: Yoast SEO section — ewpa/yoast-get-sitemap-index fetches and parses the Yoast sitemap index, returning all registered sitemap URLs with last modification dates
  • New: ewpa/update-post-meta utility ability — writes any post meta field by exact key; useful for SEO plugins or custom fields not covered by dedicated sections; protected against internal WP keys via blocklist (filterable with ewpa_blocked_meta_keys)
  • Improved: SEO meta in get-post, get-page, create-post, update-post, create-page, and update-page now auto-detects the active SEO plugin (Rank Math, Yoast SEO, The SEO Framework, SEOPress, AIOSEO) instead of writing to both Yoast and Rank Math keys simultaneously
  • Updated: Total abilities: 48 in 10 categories

2.0.2

  • Fix: Re-release to ensure all users receive the corrected admin CSS and JavaScript — sites that auto-updated to 2.0.1 before the tab and JS fixes were in place will now receive the correct assets
  • Fix: Ability count in plugin description corrected to 42 (get-page and update-comment were added in 1.9.2/1.9.3)

2.0.1

  • Fix: Activity log DB table now created correctly — PRIMARY KEY SQL formatted for dbDelta
  • Fix: ewpa_log_activity() is self-healing — auto-creates table on first failed insert, no manual intervention required
  • Fix: Input parameter unified to status (was post_status) across ewpa/get-posts, ewpa/get-pages, and ewpa/get-cpt-items for consistency with write abilities
  • Fix: Uninstall now cleans up ewpa_bearer_enabled and ewpa_db_version options (previously leaked on uninstall)
  • Fix: Admin tabs now use WordPress native nav-tab classes — resolves broken button styling on sites where themes or plugins override default button CSS
  • Fix: Admin JavaScript wrapped in document.readyState guard — tabs and toggle now work correctly on sites with optimization plugins (WP Rocket, LiteSpeed, etc.) that defer or combine scripts
  • Code quality: WPCS auto-fixed 14 issues; short ternary operators and docblock corrections applied manually
  • Code quality: phpcs.xml ruleset updated — WooCommerce and The Events Calendar custom capabilities declared
  • Code quality: Zero errors across all core plugin files
  • Note: If tabs or the Bearer toggle appear broken after updating, purge your Cloudflare or CDN cache — CDNs may serve stale JS/CSS files regardless of the plugin version parameter
