The WordPress MCP landscape
Beyond the big names, a growing list of plugins and hosting companies offer MCP servers for WordPress. Here’s how they compare with Royal MCP at a glance.

WHAT STANDS OUT
## Reading the Landscape
### WordPress now speaks MCP, but tools come from plugins
With the Abilities API in core and the official MCP Adapter on WordPress.org, any plugin can expose abilities. The adapter itself shows the AI three generic tools; what the AI can actually do depends on the plugins that register abilities.
### Hosted or direct
Hosting-company MCPs (Pressable, WP Engine) and relays run through the vendor’s servers and usually only work on that host. Direct plugins, including Royal MCP, run on your own site.
### Tool counts aren’t comparable
Counts run from 3 to over 400. Some products list every ability, others route everything through a few gateway tools, so a bigger number doesn’t mean more coverage.
### Undo and audit logs are now the dividing line
A few plugins offer undo or rollback, and several keep logs. Royal MCP pairs undo for up to 7 days with an always-on, hash-chained audit log.
### WooCommerce and page builders are where coverage thins out
Few plugins cover WooCommerce in depth, and fewer edit page builders. Royal MCP covers WooCommerce (40 tools) and edits Divi 4, Divi 5 and Elementor (43 tools).
