WordPress has decades of functions with subtly different parameter orders, which is exactly where a model recalling from training gets things almost right. Looking the function up by name before writing the call is the whole benefit. The VIP search is the part that is genuinely hard to get otherwise: platform-specific rules about caching, deployment and what is restricted are not in the general documentation, and they are the ones that fail late.
A documentation lookup for WordPress development. It searches the WordPress.org developer documentation, searches the WordPress VIP platform docs, and returns the detail for a named function, hook or class.
- WordPress.org developer documentation searched by term, narrowed to posts, functions, hooks or classes
- A named function, hook or class looked up directly, with its details rather than a list of links
- WordPress VIP platform documentation searched by term, narrowed to a section such as getting started, infrastructure, development or content
- A greeting tool that confirms the server is connected and responding
Nothing to authorize. Install globally with npm install -g wordpress-docs-claude-mcp and point the client at the wordpress-docs-mcp command, or run it from a local build. It reads public documentation over the network, so it is a lookup tool rather than a client for your own site — it reaches no WordPress installation and holds no credentials. MIT.
One command — npm install -g wordpress-docs-claude-mcp
