Stop clicking around wp-admin. Just tell your AI what you want.
You type what you want in plain English, and your AI does the real work inside WordPress for you – no menus to hunt through, no code to write.
- 💬 Do everything by chat – create and edit posts and pages, run your WooCommerce shop, manage users and menus, tidy the media library, change settings, and fix errors when they crop up.
- ↩️ Undo any change – a per-change undo journal and one-click database checkpoints let you roll back a single edit or the entire site.
- 🔄 Updates plugins & themes safely – backup first, health check after, one-command undo if anything breaks.
- 🛡️ Safe by default – safe mode confirms before anything destructive, you can preview any change before it runs, and every action is written to an audit log.
- 🆓 Free and open source – every tool included, with deep WooCommerce, ACF, Elementor, and Wordfence support. No Pro tier, no subscription.
- 🔒 Your data stays yours – self-hosted, no accounts, no phone-home. Your agent connects to your site; nothing leaves your server.
- 🔌 Works with your AI agent – Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Gemini, and any MCP client. Set up in about two minutes.
Cowboy MCP is a full MCP server inside WordPress – Claude Code, Codex, and other AI agents connect straight to your site. Ask in plain language – “publish these three drafts,” “why is the checkout page 500-ing,” “bump every Summer Sale price 20%,” “clear the cache and re-check site health” – and your agent gets it done.
Most WordPress AI plugins let an assistant write blog posts. Cowboy MCP lets your agent actually run the site: content, yes, but also the terminal-level work you’d normally stop and do by hand – WP-CLI, files, the database, error logs, and diagnostics. When something breaks, your agent can find it and fix it instead of just apologizing.
Setup guides, the full capability list, and the security model live at cowboymcp.com.
What you can do with it
- Manage content by chat – draft, edit, schedule, and publish posts and pages; upload media; sort categories and tags; build navigation menus.
- Edit pages block by block – your agent reads any page as a Gutenberg block tree and makes surgical edits: update a heading, move a section, swap a pattern. On block themes it can edit site editor templates and global styles too – all undoable.
- Run the back office – add and edit users, change roles, and tidy the media library: find every image missing alt text and fix it in one go. Deleted media is recoverable, and the site can never be left without an administrator.
- Run your store – update WooCommerce products, prices, orders, and inventory in bulk.
- Fix things that break – read error logs, test emails and HTTP requests, inspect hooks and REST routes, and repair database tables. No SSH required.
- Do the developer stuff – run WP-CLI commands, edit files in
wp-content, and take site snapshots before big changes.
- Vibe code your site – describe the theme tweak or feature you want; your agent writes the code, checks the error log, and fixes what it broke. With per-change undo and database checkpoints, vibe coding a live site stops being reckless.
- Get more done, faster – your agent stays sharp and accurate even with a big toolset, so it picks the right action the first time.
