MainWP MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI assistants like Claude to manage WordPress sites through the MainWP Dashboard REST API.

Table of Contents


Overview

MainWP MCP Server bridges the gap between AI assistants and WordPress site management. It allows Claude (via Claude Code) to:

  • Monitor the health and status of all your WordPress sites
  • Check for and apply updates to WordPress core, plugins, and themes
  • Manage plugins and themes across single or multiple sites
  • Add, sync, and manage sites in your MainWP Dashboard

This is particularly useful for agencies, freelancers, or anyone managing multiple WordPress sites who wants to leverage AI assistance for routine maintenance tasks.

Prerequisites

Required Software

Software Version Purpose
Node.js 18.0.0+ Runtime environment
npm 8.0.0+ Package management
Git Any Cloning the repository

Required Infrastructure

  1. MainWP Dashboard - A WordPress installation with the MainWP Dashboard plugin installed and activated

  2. MainWP Child Sites - Each WordPress site you want to manage must have the MainWP Child plugin installed and connected to your Dashboard

  3. REST API Access - MainWP Dashboard must have the REST API enabled (included in MainWP 4.0+)

Recommended

  • HTTPS: Your MainWP Dashboard should be served over HTTPS
  • PHP 8.1+: On your MainWP Dashboard for best performance
  • Adequate Memory: 512MB+ PHP memory limit on Dashboard (1GB for 50+ sites)

Installation

Step 1: Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/mainwp-mcp.git
cd mainwp-mcp

Step 2: Install Dependencies

npm install

This installs:

  • @modelcontextprotocol/sdk - MCP protocol implementation
  • axios - HTTP client for API requests
  • zod - Runtime type validation
  • dotenv - Environment variable management

Step 3: Build the Project

npm run build

This compiles TypeScript to JavaScript in the dist/ directory.

Step 4: Verify Installation

npm start

You should see:

mainwp-mcp v1.0.0 started

Press Ctrl+C to stop the server.


MainWP Dashboard Setup

Before using this MCP server, you need to configure your MainWP Dashboard.

Step 1: Install MainWP Dashboard

If you haven't already:

  1. Log into your WordPress admin panel
  2. Go to Plugins → Add New
  3. Search for "MainWP Dashboard"
  4. Click Install Now, then Activate
  5. Complete the MainWP setup wizard

Step 2: Connect Child Sites

For each WordPress site you want to manage:

  1. On the child site, install and activate the MainWP Child plugin
  2. In your MainWP Dashboard, go to MainWP → Sites → Add New
  3. Enter the site URL and administrator credentials
  4. Click Add Site

Step 3: Enable REST API

  1. In your MainWP Dashboard, go to MainWP → Settings → REST API
  2. Ensure the REST API is Enabled
  3. Click Add API Key
  4. Fill in the details:
    • Description: Claude Code MCP Server (or any descriptive name)
    • Permissions: Select the permissions you want to grant
      • Read: Sites, plugins, themes, updates (recommended)
      • Write: Updates, plugin activation (optional)
  5. Click Generate API Key
  6. Important: Copy both the Consumer Key and Consumer Secret immediately - the secret won't be shown again

Step 4: Note Your API Credentials

You'll need:

  • Dashboard URL: e.g., https://your-mainwp-dashboard.com
  • Consumer Key: A 40-character hex string
  • Consumer Secret: A 40-character hex string

The API key format used by this server is: consumer_key==consumer_secret

Usage Examples

Once integrated with Claude Code, you can interact using natural language.

Checking Site Status

You: "List all my WordPress sites"
Claude: [Calls mainwp_sites_list]
"You have 5 connected sites:
1. My Blog (https://myblog.com) - WordPress 6.4.2, PHP 8.2
2. Client Site A (https://clienta.com) - WordPress 6.4.2, PHP 8.1
..."

Checking for Updates

You: "What updates are available across all sites?"
Claude: [Calls mainwp_updates_list]
"I found updates available:

My Blog (https://myblog.com):
- WordPress: 6.4.1 → 6.4.2
- Akismet: 5.0 → 5.1
- Yoast SEO: 21.5 → 21.6

Client Site A (https://clienta.com):
- WordPress: 6.4.2 (up to date)
- WooCommerce: 8.3.0 → 8.4.0
..."

Applying Updates (Dry Run)

You: "Update plugins on myblog.com"
Claude: [Calls mainwp_updates_plugins with dry_run=true]
"Dry run completed. If applied, these updates would be installed:
- Akismet: 5.0 → 5.1
- Yoast SEO: 21.5 → 21.6

Would you like me to apply these updates for real?"

You: "Yes, apply them"
Claude: [Calls mainwp_updates_plugins with dry_run=false]
"Updates applied successfully:
- Akismet updated to 5.1
- Yoast SEO updated to 21.6"

Plugin Management

You: "What plugins are installed on site ID 3?"
Claude: [Calls mainwp_plugins_list]
"Site 3 has 12 plugins installed:

Active (8):
- Akismet Anti-spam (5.1)
- Yoast SEO (21.6)
- WooCommerce (8.4.0)
...

Inactive (4):
- Hello Dolly (1.7.2)
..."

You: "Deactivate Hello Dolly on that site"
Claude: [Calls mainwp_plugins_deactivate]
"Hello Dolly has been deactivated on site 3."

Security Check

You: "Which of my sites have outdated PHP versions?"
Claude: [Calls mainwp_sites_list, analyzes results]
"2 sites are running outdated PHP:
- Old Client Site (https://oldclient.com) - PHP 7.4 (EOL)
- Legacy Site (https://legacy.com) - PHP 8.0 (security fixes only)

I recommend upgrading these to PHP 8.2 or 8.3."

Safety Features

Dry-Run Mode

By default, all operations that modify sites run in dry-run mode. This means:

  • The operation is simulated but not executed
  • You see what would happen without any risk
  • You must explicitly set dry_run: false to apply changes

To disable dry-run by default (not recommended for production):

MAINWP_ENABLE_DRY_RUN_BY_DEFAULT=false

Bulk Operation Confirmation

When operations would affect multiple sites, the server requires explicit confirmation:

You: "Update all plugins on all sites"
Claude: "This would update plugins on 15 sites. Please confirm you want to proceed."

To disable this safeguard (not recommended):

MAINWP_REQUIRE_CONFIRMATION_BULK=false

Test Mode (No Side Effects)

For smoke testing or demos, you can enable test mode to prevent any changes while still exercising tool paths:

MAINWP_TEST_MODE=true

When enabled, mutating tools return simulated results and make no API calls.

Rate Limiting

The server enforces rate limiting to prevent overwhelming your MainWP Dashboard:

  • Default: 60 requests per minute
  • Requests exceeding the limit return an error with a retry delay
  • Prevents accidental DoS of your own infrastructure

To adjust the rate limit:

MAINWP_RATE_LIMIT_PER_MINUTE=30  # More conservative
MAINWP_RATE_LIMIT_PER_MINUTE=120 # More aggressive

Troubleshooting

Server Won't Start

Error: "Missing required environment variables"

Ensure MAINWP_DASHBOARD_URL and MAINWP_API_KEY are set. Check:

  • .env.local exists and has the correct values
  • If using MCP config, the env block has both variables

Error: "Cannot find module"

Run npm run build to compile TypeScript.

API Connection Issues

Error: "401 Unauthorized"

  • Verify your API key is correct
  • Check the format: consumer_key==consumer_secret (double equals)
  • Ensure the API key hasn't been revoked in MainWP

Error: "Connection refused" or timeout

  • Verify MAINWP_DASHBOARD_URL is correct and accessible
  • Check your MainWP Dashboard is running
  • Ensure your firewall allows the connection

Claude Code Integration Issues

Tools not appearing in Claude Code

  1. Verify mcp.json syntax is valid JSON
  2. Check the path to dist/index.js is absolute and correct
  3. Restart Claude Code completely after config changes
  4. Check Claude Code logs for MCP connection errors

Permission errors

  • Ensure the API key has the required permissions in MainWP
  • Check that read/write permissions match what you're trying to do

MainWP Dashboard Issues

Sites showing as disconnected

  • Run a sync: Use mainwp_sites_sync tool
  • Check the MainWP Child plugin is active on the child site
  • Verify the child site is accessible from your Dashboard

Updates not showing

  • Force a sync on the site
  • Check that MainWP Dashboard has recent sync data
  • Verify the MainWP Child plugin version is compatible
