<p>VideoWhisper Site Manager lets you manage WordPress posts and pages through external AI assistants such as ChatGPT (Custom GPT + Actions), Claude (MCP: web, desktop, mobile, CLI), and Codex (MCP). It exposes authenticated WordPress endpoints and setup guidance while you keep using your own AI account and subscription.</p>
<p>It provides:</p>
<ul>
<li>A secure REST layer for content operations (list, read, create, update, revert, reset)</li>
<li>An MCP (Model Context Protocol) endpoint for Claude.ai, Claude Desktop, Claude CLI, Claude mobile apps, and Codex MCP clients</li>
<li>A generated OpenAPI schema URL for GPT Actions import</li>
<li>Guided onboarding with copy/paste values for ChatGPT Builder, Claude connector setup, and Codex MCP setup</li>
<li>Turnkey OAuth onboarding for shared GPT / shared MCP workflows through a compatible Relay & OAuth Server</li>
<li>WordPress Application Password onboarding for direct site-owned integrations</li>
<li>Frontend user connection shortcode support for connected account workflows</li>
<li>Safety controls: HTTPS enforcement, draft-first behavior, publish gating, read/write rate limiting, write quotas, IP allowlists, audit logs</li>
<li>Extension points through WordPress hooks for custom authentication, tools, settings, content types, and admin UI additions</li>
</ul>
<p>The plugin does not call OpenAI, Anthropic, or any AI provider directly. Your WordPress site exposes authenticated endpoints and setup guidance. You connect it to ChatGPT, Claude, or Codex yourself with your own account and subscription.</p>
<h4>Ideal for</h4>
<ul>
<li>Site owners who want to draft, edit, or review WordPress content by chat</li>
<li>Teams using a dedicated WordPress user (recommended: Editor) for AI-assisted publishing workflows</li>
<li>Mobile workflows: configure on desktop, use the GPT or Claude connector on phone/tablet</li>
<li>Developer workflows where Codex can use MCP tools to inspect and update WordPress content</li>
</ul>
<h4>Supported Authentication</h4>
<p>The onboarding flow recommends using one authentication option for clarity, but development and migration setups can enable more than one.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Turnkey OAuth</strong> – recommended for most sites. Users connect through a compatible Relay & OAuth Server and can operate one or more connected sites from the same shared GPT or MCP connector.</li>
<li><strong>Application Passwords</strong> – direct WordPress authentication over HTTPS using WordPress core Application Passwords. Best for admin-owned custom GPT/MCP setups where credentials are managed by the site operator.</li>
<li><strong>Extension-provided authentication</strong> – developers can add custom OAuth, token validation, alternate connector metadata, or other authentication flows with the hooks listed below.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Connecting ChatGPT</h4>
<ol>
<li>Install and activate VideoWhisper Site Manager.</li>
<li>Open <strong>VideoWhisper Site Manager > Onboarding</strong>.</li>
<li>Create (or link) a dedicated WordPress user (recommended role: Editor).</li>
<li>Choose Turnkey OAuth for a shared GPT workflow, or create an Application Password from the onboarding page for a direct site-owned GPT.</li>
<li>In ChatGPT Builder (desktop), create a Custom GPT and import the plugin OpenAPI schema URL.</li>
<li>Use the provided copy/paste values for Configure, Actions, authentication, and privacy policy fields.</li>
<li>Test on desktop, then use the same GPT on mobile.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Connecting Claude (MCP)</h4>
<p>The free plugin includes an MCP endpoint at <code>/wp-json/videowhisper-site-manager/v1/mcp</code>.</p>
<p><strong>Claude.ai (web):</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Go to <code>claude.ai/customize/connectors</code>.</li>
<li>Click the <strong>+</strong> button in the Connectors sidebar <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> <strong>Add custom connector</strong>.</li>
<li>Set a name and paste the MCP endpoint URL.</li>
<li>Authorize via Turnkey OAuth when connected to a compatible Relay & OAuth Server, or use an Application Password for direct setup.</li>
<li>The connector also works in the <strong>Claude mobile apps</strong> (iOS and Android) and desktop once authorized.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Claude CLI:</strong></p>
<p>claude mcp add –transport http “YourSiteName” “https://yoursite.com/wp-json/videowhisper-site-manager/v1/mcp”</p>
<p>Automatic OAuth authorization requires a compatible Relay & OAuth Server. Without that connection, use WordPress Application Passwords over HTTPS.</p>
<h4>Connecting Codex (MCP)</h4>
<p>The onboarding flow includes Codex setup values for both direct and Turnkey MCP architectures. Codex can connect to the same Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint at <code>/wp-json/videowhisper-site-manager/v1/mcp</code>.</p>
<ol>
<li>Open <strong>VideoWhisper Site Manager > Onboarding</strong> and enable Codex in the AI Tools selection step.</li>
<li>Choose Turnkey OAuth for shared relay access, or Application Passwords for direct site-owned MCP access.</li>
<li>Copy the generated Codex <code>config.toml</code> block or OAuth login command from the Codex onboarding tab.</li>
<li>Restart or reload Codex MCP settings, then use <code>/mcp</code> in Codex to confirm the WordPress MCP server is active.</li>
</ol>
