The `upload_wordpress_media` tool requires three parameters: a public source URL, a descriptive filename (e.g., 'homepage-banner.jpg'), and optional alt text for SEO. All these details are managed by the MCP Server. This ensures that every developer on your team uses consistent asset naming standards.
