About

WordPress ships in the w6w first-party pack. It declares 15 actions, 3 health checks, and the host runs its code in a sandbox that never sees the credential.

Overview

WordPress manages posts, pages and users on a site from a workflow — creating, updating, fetching, listing and deleting both posts and pages, the same core content types the WordPress REST API itself is built around, and doing the same full create/read/update/delete/list cycle for user accounts.

Because it talks to any site’s own REST API rather than a hosted platform, it works the same way against a self-hosted install as against one hosted elsewhere — the only requirement is that the site’s REST API is reachable and enabled.

A fit for publishing content generated or approved elsewhere in a workflow, syndicating posts from another source into a WordPress site, or managing user accounts as part of an onboarding or offboarding process.

Build with WordPress

Three routes to the same 15 actions. The Workflow tab is generated from WordPress's own manifest and carries its real ids, so it is copy-pasteable; the Code and CLI examples are the same call for any action on any app, so every app-specific value in them is a blank you fill in.

Create Page

page-create

Create a new page.

Delete Page

page-delete

Move a page to trash, or bypass trash entirely with `force`.

Get Page

page-get

Retrieve a single page by ID.

List Pages

page-get-all

List pages on a single page of results. Set `page` to walk further pages.

Update Page

page-update

Update fields on an existing page.

Create Post

post-create

Create a new post.

Delete Post

post-delete

Move a post to trash, or bypass trash entirely with `force`.

Get Post

post-get

Retrieve a single post by ID.

List Posts

post-get-all

List posts on a single page. Set `page` to walk further pages.

Update Post

post-update

Update fields on an existing post.

Create User

user-create

Create a new WordPress user.

Delete User (Me)

user-delete

Delete the currently authenticated user. `reassign` names the user to inherit their posts.

Get User

user-get

Retrieve a single user by ID (or `me` for the authenticated user).

List Users

user-get-all

List users on a single page of results. Set `page` to walk further pages.

Update User

user-update

Update fields on an existing user.

A workflow step names the app and the action, and the editor fills in the connection when you pick one. This is the Step shape from the workflow spec, carrying WordPress's real ids.

{
  "manifestVersion": "2",
  "name": "wordpress-example",
  "steps": [
    {
      "id": "page-create",
      "uses": {
        "app": "io.w6w.wordpress",
        "action": "page-create",
        "connection": "conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID"
      },
      "with": {
        "title": "<title>"
      }
    }
  ]
}

+10 more actions available

Every app-specific value here is a blank you have to fill in. An app action is reached through the connection that authenticates it, so the address is a connection id, not the app id — and connections belong to your account, so a public page cannot know yours. Create one for WordPress, then fill in the three blanks: conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID, the action key, and the parameters that action declares. The call itself is real — the shape is transcribed from the studio's own snippet builder, which prints the same kind of blanks — but nothing in it is specific to WordPress. The Workflow tab is where this app's real ids are.

Install
npm install @w6w/sdk
yarn add @w6w/sdk
pnpm add @w6w/sdk
deno add npm:@w6w/sdk
Code
import { W6wClient, isActionRun } from "@w6w/sdk";

// Reads W6W_BASE_URL and W6W_TOKEN from the environment when omitted.
const client = new W6wClient();

const envelope = await client.run({
  urn: "conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID",
  action: "post-create",
  payload: {
    title: "<value>",
    // authorId: "<value>",
    // content: "<value>",
    // slug: "<value>",
    // password: "<value>",
    // status: "<value>",
    // commentStatus: "<value>",
    // pingStatus: "<value>",
    // sticky: "<value>",
    // template: "<value>",
    // categories: "<value>",
    // tags: "<value>",
    // format: "<value>",
    // date: "<value>",
  },
});

if (isActionRun(envelope)) console.log(envelope.value);
Install the CLI
npm install -g @w6w/cli
CLI
w6w run conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID --action post-create --payload '{"title":"<value>"}'

Give an AI agent WordPress — without giving it WordPress's credentials. One MCP endpoint exposes every app, function and workflow the caller is entitled to, as tools it can discover and run. Access is granted per team while we onboard.

One tool call
{
  "name": "w6w_invoke",
  "arguments": {
    "ref": "app:io.w6w.wordpress#page-create",
    "input": {
      "title": "<title>"
    }
  }
}

Every tool names its target with a single ref. The app: form above doesn't name a connection at all — the host resolves which of the caller's WordPress connections to sign with, and refuses rather than guesses when the answer is ambiguous.

What the agent gets

Credentials it can't read

The token is attached host-side, at the moment of the call. It is never a tool argument, never in the model's context, and never in a transcript — so a prompt injection has nothing to exfiltrate.

A tool surface scoped to the caller

Tools are derived per end user from what that person has actually connected and is entitled to — not one shared bot identity carrying the union of everyone's access.

A durable workflow in one call

Multi-step work runs on the workflow engine and returns a run handle the agent can poll — retries, branching and state survive the conversation that started them.

Health-aware discovery

WordPress's declared health checks are on the surface too, so an agent can tell "the vendor is down" from "your credential expired" before it burns a retry on either.

The MCP surface is part of the hosted platform. WordPress itself is MIT, and the runtime that executes it is source-available (FSL).

Request MCP access

Health checks

WordPress declares its own checks, so its health is a property of the app rather than something the host guesses at.

WordPress platform status

API quota headroom

dependency

Site reachable

Unauthenticated `GET /wp-json/` against this connection's site — proves the host resolves AND that the REST API is enabled.
