WordPress
A Python MCP server for interacting with a local WordPress instance.
Install
Install and configure the MCP from https://github.com/glendaviesnz/wp-mcp/tree/trunk now. Follow the repository's installation instructions, ask me for anything you can't complete yourself, and verify its tools load.README
Very much a work in progress that has not progressed
You should go to https://github.com/Automattic/wordpress-mcp for a fully functional WordPress MCP implementation.
To try it you currently need a WordPress instance locally on http://localhost:8888/.
It is currently a python app, I used uv locally,so you will need to:
uv venv source .venv/bin/activate uv pip install -r requirements.txt
You can then run the server with uv run wp.py to see if you get any errors, but you don't need to run from terminal as Claude will start its own instance.
You also need to add the following to your claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"wordpress": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"/FULL/PATH/TO/wp-server-python",
"run",
"wp.py"
]
}
}
}
