msrbuilds/elementor-mcp

WordPress plugin that turns Elementor & WordPress into an MCP server. 200+ AI-ready tools for building, editing, and managing page designs programmatically.

What it solves

It allows AI agents to directly operate and manage WordPress websites. Instead of a human manually clicking through the admin dashboard, an AI agent (via an MCP client) can build pages, manage content, and configure site settings using a standardized protocol.

How it works

The project is a WordPress plugin that implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It exposes the site's internal functions as a set of tools that AI clients like Claude, Cursor, or ChatGPT can call. It bundles the WordPress MCP Adapter to facilitate this communication, allowing agents to perform actions such as creating Elementor containers, managing users, or auditing security, provided the agent has the necessary user permissions.

Who it’s for

WordPress developers and site owners who want to automate website building and management using AI agents, specifically those using Elementor or Gutenberg blocks.

Highlights

  • Page Building: Full support for Elementor 4.0+ (containers, widgets, templates) and Gutenberg blocks.
  • Site Management: Ability to manage media, users, settings, plugins, themes, and the database via MCP.
  • Plugin Integrations: Specialized tools for popular plugins like WooCommerce, ACF, Meta Box, and various SEO and form builders.
  • Safety Controls: Built-in WordPress capability checks, opt-in destructive operations, and a restricted filesystem access model to prevent accidental site damage.
