The WordPress Plugin Directory proposes becoming a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server.
- This initiative aims to allow AI assistants, including Claude and ChatGPT, to directly discover and interact with WordPress plugins as 'tools'.
- The directory would expose an MCP endpoint, providing AI-interpretable descriptions of plugins and their capabilities.
- AI could then recommend suitable plugins to users and provide instructions for their installation and usage within WordPress.
- The goal is to enhance AI assistant functionality by integrating WordPress's extensive plugin ecosystem into AI-driven workflows.
