Abilities are the discrete, permission-gated operations that AI agents call through the MCP adapter to read and manage your WordPress and WooCommerce site. Every ability call passes through the same lifecycle — authentication, license check, capability check, and ability-rule acknowledgement — before any site data is touched. The result always arrives in the same JSON envelope, whether the call succeeded or failed.Documentation Index

MCP endpoint
Your AI client connects to the following URL, whereyoursite.com is your WordPress site’s domain:
Call lifecycle
Every ability call follows this sequence on the server:Authentication
The server validates the incoming request — either an OAuth 2.1 Bearer token or a WordPress application password. Unauthenticated requests are rejected immediately.
License check
The server confirms your site has an active license. Without a valid license, only session bootstrap and license activation abilities are callable.
Capability check
The server verifies the authenticated WordPress user has the capability the ability requires (for example,
edit_posts for content creation). This is enforced at execution time, not at connection time.Ability-rule acknowledgement
If the ability has an associated rule, the server confirms it has been acknowledged for the current session. Read-only abilities attach the rule to their first successful response. Write abilities block the first call and deliver the rule in the rejection, then pass the retry through.
All other abilities are blocked until you call
maxi/bootstrap-session at the start of each session. Bootstrap is server-enforced — it is not optional.Listing conventions
Mostlist-* abilities accept a consistent set of pagination and ordering parameters:
| Parameter | Values | Notes |
|---|---|---|
orderby | date, title, modified, rand (plus type-specific values like price for products) | See each ability’s input schema for its supported values |
order | ASC, DESC (case-insensitive) | Has no effect when orderby is rand |
per_page | integer | Number of results per page |
page | integer | Page offset for pagination |

Abilities are organized into feature groups. Your license plan determines which groups are available on your site. Lite plan abilities are available to all licensed installs; Pro-only abilities are marked [PRO] throughout the reference.| Group | Abilities | Description |
