<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>
<ul>
<li>OAuth 2.0 with PKCE – Enhanced authorization flow for ChatGPT</li>
<li>AES-256-CBC Encryption – Client secrets encrypted at rest</li>
<li>Token Expiration – Access tokens expire after 1 hour</li>
<li>Refresh Tokens – Valid for 30 days with automatic renewal</li>
<li>Authorization Codes – Expire after 10 minutes</li>
<li>WordPress Application Passwords – Secure Basic Auth for other clients</li>
<li>Admin-Only OAuth – Only administrators can authorize ChatGPT connections</li>
<li>Profile-Based Restrictions – Control which tools are available</li>
<li>Capability Checks – All operations respect WordPress user permissions</li>

MountDev AI MCP Connector

Transform your WordPress site into an AI-powered Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Exposes WordPress functionality for AI agents.

Mescio

WebMCP Bridge exposes your WordPress (and WooCommerce) functionality as <a href="https://github.com/webmcp/webmcp-spec" rel="nofollow ugc">WebMCP</a> tools that AI agents can discover and invoke directly in the browser.
Once installed, your site automatically becomes “agent-friendly”:
<ul>
<li>AI agents can search posts, pages, and custom post types</li>
<li>AI agents can browse products, manage the cart, apply coupons (WooCommerce)</li>
<li>AI agents can read navigation menus and site metadata</li>
<li>Developers can register custom tools in minutes via a simple PHP API</li>
</ul>
What is WebMCP?
WebMCP is a new browser-native protocol (currently in Chrome Early Preview) that lets web apps expose their functionality as structured “tools” that AI agents can invoke — without needing to screenshot or parse HTML. Think of your website as an MCP server running entirely client-side.
How it works
<ol>
<li>Install and activate the plugin</li>
<li>Enable the features you want from Settings → WebMCP Bridge</li>
<li>Your tool manifest is immediately available at <code>/wp-json/webmcp-bridge/v1/manifest</code></li>
<li>AI agents (or any JavaScript code) can call your tools via REST API or the native browser WebMCP API</li>
</ol>
Included tools
Core:
<ul>
<li><code>search_posts</code> — Search posts, pages, or custom post types</li>
<li><code>get_post</code> — Retrieve a single post by ID or slug</li>
<li><code>get_menu</code> — Return navigation menu items</li>
<li><code>get_categories</code> — List taxonomy terms</li>
<li><code>get_site_info</code> — Site name, description, URL, language</li>
<li><code>submit_contact_form</code> — Contact Form 7 integration</li>
</ul>
WooCommerce (requires WooCommerce plugin):
<ul>
<li><code>woo_search_products</code> — Search by keyword, category, price range</li>
<li><code>woo_get_product</code> — Full product details including attributes</li>
<li><code>woo_add_to_cart</code> — Add a product to the cart</li>
<li><code>woo_get_cart</code> — Current cart contents and totals</li>
<li><code>woo_remove_from_cart</code> — Remove an item by cart key</li>
<li><code>woo_apply_coupon</code> — Apply a coupon code</li>
<li><code>woo_get_checkout_fields</code> — Return checkout field schema</li>
<li><code>woo_get_product_categories</code> — List all product categories</li>
</ul>
Even more powerful with Mescio for Agents
WebMCP Bridge integrates automatically with the Mescio for Agents plugin. When both plugins are active, two additional tools are unlocked:
<ul>
<li><code>get_markdown_content</code> — Returns any post or page as clean Markdown, the format AI models consume most efficiently. Instead of raw HTML, agents receive structured, token-optimized content ready for reasoning and summarization.</li>
<li><code>get_llms_txt</code> — Exposes the site-wide <code>llms.txt</code> context document (index or full variant), giving agents an instant, structured overview of what the site is about, who it is for, and what content is available — before they even start searching.</li>
</ul>
Together, the two plugins turn your WordPress site into a fully AI-native content source: WebMCP Bridge handles the tool layer (what agents can do), while Mescio for Agents handles the content layer (what agents can read and understand).
Privacy
This plugin does not collect, store, or transmit any user data to external servers. All tool execution happens locally within your WordPress installation. No telemetry, no phone-home, no external API calls.

WebMCP Bridge

Make your WordPress site natively AI-agent friendly via the WebMCP protocol — no backend server required.
