<p>Your AI assistant is smart — but it knows nothing about your specific WordPress site. AI Conduit fixes that. Once installed, your AI can look up your blog posts, check your WooCommerce orders, pull student progress from LearnDash, or summarise your site’s data — just by asking, in plain language.</p>
<p>Think of it as giving your AI a secure window into your WordPress database. It can read and report. It can never edit, delete, or change anything.</p>
<h4>WordPress 7.0 has AI infrastructure — so why AI Conduit?</h4>
<p>WordPress 7.0 shipped the Abilities API, AI Client, Connectors screen, and MCP Adapter. For the first time, WordPress has a standardised way for plugins to talk to AI assistants. The architecture is sound. The vision is right. And for most WordPress sites today, none of it does anything useful yet.</p>
<p>Here’s why. The Abilities API is a registry — it only matters if plugins populate it. WordPress 7.0 ships with two baseline abilities. WooCommerce is leading the way, but the vast majority of the plugin ecosystem hasn’t registered anything yet. Until they do, your AI can see the registry, but there’s nothing in it for your site.</p>
<p>The bigger gap is your custom work. Most production sites have custom post types, meta fields, and bespoke integrations that no plugin author can register on your behalf. The only native path to exposing them is custom PHP — writing schemas and permission callbacks for every field you want your AI to read. That’s a developer project, not an afternoon’s work.</p>
<p>AI Conduit closes both gaps. Point and click to give your AI read access to anything in your database — standard fields, custom post types, custom meta, even data added by plugins that haven’t registered abilities yet. No PHP. No waiting on someone else’s roadmap. Working in minutes, not months.</p>
<h4>What can you use it for?</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Customer Support</strong> — Ask your AI “what did customer John order last week?” and get the answer without opening WooCommerce. Save hours every week.</li>
<li><strong>E-commerce</strong> — “Show me all orders over $5,000 this month.” Your AI assistant pulls the data, you make the decision. No exports, no spreadsheets.</li>
<li><strong>Content Teams</strong> — “List all posts published in the last 30 days with fewer than 500 words.” Your AI does the audit in seconds — not hours.</li>
<li><strong>Course Creators</strong> — With LearnDash, ask “which students haven’t completed Module 3?” and follow up personally — without running a single report.</li>
<li><strong>Site Owners</strong> — “Give me a weekly digest of new signups, published posts, and comments.” Your AI becomes a personal briefing assistant for your site.</li>
<li><strong>Agencies</strong> — Build tools once. Use them across client sites. Pull the metrics your clients care about without touching phpMyAdmin or writing SQL.</li>
</ul>
<h4>How it works — three simple steps</h4>
<ol>
<li><strong>Install and activate the plugin.</strong> Upload to WordPress the same way you install any other plugin. Takes about two minutes.</li>
<li><strong>Build your first tool with drag-and-drop.</strong> Choose what data your AI can see — posts, orders, users, comments. No code required. Point, click, configure.</li>
<li><strong>Connect your AI and start asking questions.</strong> Paste one connection URL into Claude Desktop or your preferred AI app. Your assistant now knows your site.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Your data stays safe</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Read-only access</strong> — Your AI can never edit, delete, or publish anything on your site. Ever.</li>
<li><strong>Role-based controls</strong> — Decide exactly which WordPress roles can access which tools.</li>
<li><strong>Full request log</strong> — Every query your AI makes is logged so you always know what was asked.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Everything included</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Visual tool builder</strong> — No code. Drag blocks to define what your AI can access.</li>
<li><strong>Rich data sources</strong> — Posts, pages, users, comments, and custom fields — all queryable.</li>
<li><strong>Smart filters</strong> — Narrow by date, category, author, custom field value, and more.</li>
<li><strong>Cross-data queries</strong> — Combine posts with their authors or comments with their posts in one query.</li>
<li><strong>Import & export tools</strong> — Save your tool configuration as JSON and reuse it across sites instantly.</li>
<li><strong>Rate limiting</strong> — Set caps on how often the AI can query your site to prevent overload.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Who is this plugin for?</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>WooCommerce store owners</strong> — Query orders, customers, and product data without leaving your AI chat.</li>
<li><strong>LearnDash course creators</strong> — Track enrolments, completions, and quiz scores through natural conversation.</li>
<li><strong>Content editors & bloggers</strong> — Audit your content library, find gaps, and surface your best posts with ease.</li>
<li><strong>WordPress developers</strong> — Build custom MCP tools for clients. Extensible with your own block types.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Works with your favourite AI tools</h4>
<p>AI Conduit connects to any AI app that supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP). That includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>Claude Desktop</li>
<li>Cursor</li>
<li>Any MCP-compatible client</li>
</ul>
<p>New AI tools are adding MCP support every month — any compatible client will work automatically.</p>

<p>Aculect AI Companion is a secure MCP connector for WordPress. It lets approved AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, and OpenAI-compatible tools work with your WordPress content, media, comments, and site information through permission-aware workflows.</p>
<p>Instead of switching between WordPress admin screens, you can ask your AI assistant in plain English to draft a post, update a page, review comments, upload media, inspect safe site details, or prepare long-form content using WordPress blocks.</p>
<p>WordPress remains the source of truth. Aculect AI Companion checks the connected WordPress user’s permissions before every action, lets administrators choose which abilities are available, and keeps risky write actions behind configurable controls.</p>
<h4>What is MCP for WordPress?</h4>
<p>MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. In Aculect AI Companion, MCP gives supported AI assistants a structured, permission-controlled way to request WordPress actions. The assistant does not receive direct database access. It can only use the enabled tools exposed by WordPress and approved by an administrator.</p>

<h3>Third Party Services</h3>
<p>Aculect AI Companion does not send site data to an external service on activation, page load, cron, or without a site administrator connecting an AI assistant.</p>
<p>When a site administrator copies the connection URL into an external AI assistant and approves the connection screen in WordPress, that assistant can request the enabled abilities. Depending on the enabled abilities and the connected WordPress user’s permissions, requested data may include post titles, post content, excerpts, slugs, statuses, authors, dates, permalinks, category and tag names, media metadata, comments, and safe site settings such as site name, description, URLs, locale, timezone, date format, time format, permalink structure, and active theme name.</p>
<p>The external service that receives this data is the AI assistant selected and configured by the administrator. Aculect AI Companion’s built-in setup UI includes links for:</p>
<ul>
<li>ChatGPT by OpenAI: https://chatgpt.com/, terms at https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use/, and privacy policy at https://openai.com/policies/row-privacy-policy/</li>
<li>Claude by Anthropic: https://claude.ai/, terms at https://www.anthropic.com/legal/consumer-terms, and privacy policy at https://www.anthropic.com/legal/privacy</li>
</ul>
<p>Administrators should review the terms and privacy policy for the AI assistant they connect. Aculect AI Companion controls the WordPress-side approval and permissions checks; it does not control how a connected external assistant processes data after the administrator authorizes access.</p>
<h3>Development</h3>
<p>The production package ships built assets and Composer dependencies. Development manifests such as <code>composer.json</code>, <code>composer.lock</code>, and <code>package.json</code> are intentionally excluded from release ZIP files. Generated files under <code>build/</code> are not committed to the source repository; release automation generates them before packaging.</p>
