How to Use the WordPress MCP in Windsurf
Build and manage WordPress content by chaining actions with Windsurf.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect WordPress MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect WordPress to Windsurf and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Manage Content Lifecycle in Windsurf
The `create_new_post` tool lets you draft a new blog article instantly. You give it the goal, and Cascade figures out the steps to get that post live on WordPress. Need to clean up old content? Use `delete_post` when you're done with an entry. It removes the post entirely from your site.
Retrieve Specific Site Data using MCP Server
To check on a single article, just run `get_post_details`. This pulls all the metadata and content for a specific WordPress post ID. It’s faster than digging through the dashboard. You can also see what categories are available across the whole site by calling `list_blog_categories`.
Audit Site Structure with Windsurf
Does your WordPress site have enough pages? The `list_static_pages` tool pulls a clean list of all permanent, non-blog pages. You'll see everything from the About Us page to contact forms. If you need user data—like who has admin access—the `list_site_users` function gives you that list too.
