<h3>External Services</h3>
This plugin includes a Node.js bridge script that connects MCP clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) to your WordPress site’s REST API endpoints. The bridge facilitates communication between the MCP client and your WordPress installation.
What the service is and what it is used for: 
The wordpress-mcp-bridge is a Node.js script that acts as a communication bridge between MCP-compatible AI clients and your WordPress site’s REST API. It translates MCP protocol requests into WordPress REST API calls and returns the responses to the AI client.
What data is sent and when: 
When you use an MCP client (like Claude Desktop) with this plugin, the bridge sends the following data to your WordPress site’s REST API endpoints: 
* Your WordPress username and Application Password (for authentication) 
* MCP protocol requests (tool calls, resource requests, prompts) 
* Content data when creating or updating WordPress posts, pages, media, etc. 
* This data is sent every time you interact with WordPress through the MCP client
Where the data is sent: 
All data is sent to YOUR OWN WordPress site’s REST API endpoints at: 
* <code>https://yoursite.com/wp-json/mountdev-ai-mcp-connector/v1/messages</code> (main MCP endpoint) 
* <code>https://yoursite.com/wp-json/mountdev-ai-mcp-connector/v1/oauth/*</code> (OAuth endpoints for ChatGPT)
Important notes: 
* No data is sent to any third-party external services 
* All communication is between the MCP client and your own WordPress installation 
* Your WordPress credentials and data remain on your own server 
* The plugin does not transmit any data to external services operated by the plugin author or any third parties
<h3>Security</h3>

<h3>External Services</h3>
This plugin connects to the following external services:
<h4>WordPress.org API</h4>
The system diagnostics feature tests whether your server can make outgoing HTTP requests (both GET and POST) by connecting to the WordPress.org core version check API. This is used only when the user explicitly requests a system diagnostics report. The data sent is the WordPress version number. No personal data is transmitted.

<li><a href="https://wordpress.org/about/privacy/" rel="ugc">Privacy Policy</a></li>
</ul>
<h4>OAuth 2.1 Authentication</h4>
This plugin implements an OAuth 2.1 server so that MCP clients (Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, Cursor, etc.) can authenticate with your site. The OAuth flow happens entirely between the MCP client application and your own WordPress site. No data is sent to any third-party service by the plugin during authentication. The MCP client connects directly to your site’s REST API endpoints.
