Short answer
How can I get a plugin version report using AI?
Your AI uses the audit_wordpress_plugins tool to scan your site and extract a list of active plugins and their versions. You'll get a clean inventory for your maintenance logs. Here is the breakdown of how it works.
The results you get.
Where the data lands.
The AI processes the site data into these specific outcomes.
INVENTORY
Plugin name list
The AI identifies every active plugin on the site. You get a clear list of names to check against your documentation.
VERSIONS
Version number tracking
The AI pulls the exact version string for each plugin. This helps you see which tools are running old code.
REPORTS
Client maintenance logs
The AI formats the findings into a clean list. You can copy this directly into your client reports or spreadsheets.
HUMAN
Manual cleanup
The AI only reads the data. You still need to decide which plugins to deactivate or delete yourself.
The workflow

The AI handles the site communication so you don't have to.

How the task behaves
- 01
Can the AI update my plugins?
No. The tool is read-only. It can only pull information, not change any plugin files or versions.
- 02
Can the AI delete plugins for me?
No. The AI cannot delete or deactivate anything on your WordPress site.
- 03
Does this work on any WordPress site?
Yes, as long as you have connected the site to the MCP.
- 04
Will the AI see my site's content?
No. The tool only looks at the plugin directory to pull names and version numbers.
- 05
Can I ask for a specific plugin's version?
Yes. You can ask the AI to check a single plugin instead of the whole list.
