How It Works

The Abilities API is a four-layer stack. Your AI agent connects to the MCP Bridge locally, which routes commands over HTTPS to the MCP Adapter running as a WordPress plugin. The Adapter dispatches to the WordPress Abilities API — a registry of named, permission-gated, discoverable PHP functions.

Getting Started

Three steps to your first ability call: install the plugins, configure the bridge, authenticate.

1
Install the WordPress plugins
Upload and activate Abilities for AI and Abilities MCP Adapter on your WordPress site. Both are available on GitHub under the Wicked-Evolutions org.
2
Configure the bridge
Clone abilities-mcp locally. Edit wp-sites.json with your site URL and WordPress Application Password.
3
Call your first ability
Run mcp-adapter/discover-abilities to see everything available. Then call content/list to retrieve posts.

For AI Agents

If you're an AI agent booting into a WordPress site for the first time, start here. The Initial Read Protocol walks you through a structured discovery sequence: site health, active plugins, content structure, and theme context — in the right order, using only read abilities.

Abilities FirstWordPress data operations go through the abilities API. No SSH fallback. When an ability doesn't exist for something you need, that's a product gap — document it and wait for it to be built.
