Requirements

What you need.

EMCP is a standard WordPress plugin: activate it like any other. Requirements are minimal:

  • WordPress 6.9+: the Abilities API is core, so no extra dependency to install.
  • PHP 8.1+: the MCP Adapter ships bundled with the plugin.
  • Elementor (optional): 3.20+ for the page-building tools; every other tool works without it.
  • An MCP client: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity, VS Code, and more.

Setup

Install and connect in a few steps.

No build step, no external service. Four steps from download to your first prompt.

  1. Install & activate

    Download the free plugin and activate it. Free installs auto-update in your dashboard straight from GitHub releases.

  2. Enable the server

    It is on by default at /wp-json/mcp/. The Connection screen shows ready-to-copy client configs.

  3. Connect your client

    WP-CLI stdio for local dev, or HTTP with an Application Password or one-click OAuth for a live site.

  4. Prompt

    Ask your AI to build a page or manage content. Every call is capability-checked against your user.

What it adds

207 tools, one plugin.

Once active, your AI can call tools across Elementor, Gutenberg, content, plugins and themes, users, media, the database, the filesystem, performance and security, and plugin integrations. Reads are on by default; sensitive writes stay off until you opt in.

The free tier covers the full server. EMCP Pro adds AI Chat, premium prompts, templates, and brand kits.

Download the free EMCP plugin and activate it on WordPress 6.9+ (PHP 8.1+). The MCP server turns on automatically; the Connection screen gives you copy-paste configs for Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients.
Yes. The core plugin is free and includes the full MCP server. Free installs receive automatic in-dashboard updates from GitHub. EMCP Pro is an optional upgrade that adds AI Chat, premium prompts, templates, and brand kits.
WordPress 6.9 or newer (the Abilities API is core), PHP 8.1+, and an MCP-compatible AI client. Elementor is optional: 3.20+ enables the Elementor page-building tools, while all other tools work without it. The MCP Adapter is bundled, so there is nothing else to install.
For local development, use the built-in WP-CLI stdio bridge. For a remote site, generate a WordPress Application Password (or sign in with OAuth) and point your client at the HTTP endpoint or the bundled Node proxy. Ready-made configs are on the Connection screen.
Free installs update in the WordPress dashboard directly from GitHub releases, so you see "update available" like any plugin and can one-click update or enable auto-updates. Pro installs update through Freemius.
