A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides WordPress documentation and development tools for Claude Code and Claude Desktop. That is what the wordpress docs claude mcp mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.
The server publishes 4 tools. What each one is for:
hello_wp — WordPress-themed greeting tool for testing MCP server connectivity. - Parameters: name (required) - Name to greet with WordPress contextwp_search_docs — Search WordPress.org developer documentation with filtering options. - Parameters: - query (required) - Search term for WordPress documentation -wp_vip_search — Search WordPress VIP platform documentation for enterprise features. - Parameters: - query (required) - Search term for WordPress VIPwp_function_lookup — Get detailed information about specific WordPress functions, hooks, or classes. - Parameters: - function_name (required) - Exact name of theThe server ships on npm as wordpress-docs-claude-mcp, so your MCP client can launch it on demand — there is no separate build step. Add the server block to your client's configuration, restart it, and the tools register themselves.
Among the knowledge and memory options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Wordpress Docs Claude MCP's toolset — hello_wp, wp_search_docs, wp_vip_search and 1 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by freibergergarcia; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
