Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the WordPress Post Drafter MCP Server?
We refused to build a bloated WordPress integration that gives an AI agent terrifying access to delete your pages, read your entire database, or install plugins. Instead, this MCP server provides a surgical, zero-trust bridge: just creating Drafts.
Your AI agent gains the immediate ability to act as a ghostwriter. You can brainstorm ideas, ask it to write a 2,000-word SEO-optimized blog post, and then just say "Save it to my blog". It instantly appears in your WordPress panel, ready for your human review.
The Superpowers
- Zero-Friction Publishing: End the 'copy-paste' nightmare. The AI formats the HTML and drops it right into your CMS.
- Zero-Bloat Integration: No custom plugins required. It uses the native WordPress REST API
/wp-json/wp/v2/posts. You only need an Application Password (a native WordPress feature). - Absolute Containment: Because the code is strictly hardcoded to
status: 'draft', the agent is physically incapable of publishing content live to your audience. You maintain 100% editorial control. It is a completely secure, one-way funnel.
Built-in capabilities (1)
Provide the title and the content (can be HTML or plain text). The post will strictly be saved as a Draft, never published live. Creates a new Draft post in WordPress with the provided content

Frequently asked questions
Can the AI publish the post directly without my approval?
No! This is the most important feature. The MCP code has a hardcoded status: 'draft' payload. Even if the AI tries to publish it, the server will force it into a Draft. You must click 'Publish' in your WordPress admin panel.
Do I need to install a plugin on my WordPress?
No. We use the official, native WordPress REST API. You only need to generate an Application Password, which is a built-in feature in WordPress since version 5.6.
What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?
Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.
Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?
Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.
Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?
No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.
How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?
Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
Tools not appearing in Cursor
Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
