Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Sokket – MCP Server: Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor & Any AI Agent to WordPress
The Model Context Protocol is the standard way for an AI client to work with an external system. The system exposes tools — named operations with typed arguments — and the AI decides which to call. Sokket makes your WordPress site one of those systems, so an AI agent can read and manage it directly instead of being told about it second-hand.
No. The plugin makes no outbound requests to AI providers or any other external service. AI clients that you configure connect to your site, authenticate with a credential you created, and can only use the tools that credential allows.
No. Sokket is provider-agnostic and stores no AI credentials at all. Your AI client brings its own subscription and authenticates to your site with a token or an OAuth connection you approve.
Any MCP-compatible client that supports remote servers over Streamable HTTP, including Claude Code, Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, and Windsurf. The "Connect your AI client" tab generates the exact command or configuration for your site.
Claude Desktop's custom connectors have no field for a bearer token, so enable OAuth 2.1 under Settings → General, then add your endpoint URL as a custom connector and leave Client ID and Client Secret blank — the connector registers itself and asks you to sign in and approve. If you would rather not enable OAuth, the plugin also generates an mcp-remote configuration that uses a bearer token instead.
Yes. This plugin is the complete MCP server: every tool, OAuth 2.1, bearer tokens, per-connection permissions, and the audit log. There is no usage limit and no account to create.
The server is disabled by default and rejects every request until you enable it. When enabled, access requires a credential bound to a WordPress user, and each tool call is checked against that user's capabilities plus the connection's own allowlist. Every write tool is off until you enable it, and you can revoke any credential instantly.
Yes — that is the core of the plugin. Each bearer token has its own tool allowlist and an optional read-only ceiling that blocks every write tool regardless of what else is ticked. OAuth connections are scope-based instead: read-only or full access, still bounded by the WordPress user's capabilities.
No. The plugin deliberately ships no filesystem write, database query, or command execution tools. Every write tool is off by default and has to be enabled per connection. get_php_error_log_tail reads only the path the server itself configures in error_log, capped at the last 100 lines, and requires an administrator. This includes the design tools. update_block_template and update_global_styles write database rows — the same customisation records the Site Editor creates — and never touch a theme's theme.json, templates/, or any other file. If you deactivate the plugin, the theme still renders exactly as those customisations describe, because they belong to your site rather than to Sokket. Settings are the same story. update_site_settings writes a fixed list of options and nothing else. The site address, the admin email, whether anyone can register, what role they get, and the permalink structure are excluded outright, and that exclusion is enforced in code after any filter has run, so a site cannot open them up by accident. set_post_meta works from an allowlist of meta keys rather than accepting any key you name.
On a block theme, yes — and yes. An agent with the template and style tools enabled can edit templates and template parts, change the palette, typography and spacing, and style individual blocks. Every one of those changes is reversible, and reversible in more than one way. revert_block_template discards a template customisation so the theme file takes over again, and reset_global_styles throws away the style changes. The Site Editor's own "Reset" and "Clear customizations" work on them too, because they are ordinary WordPress customisation records, not something the plugin invents. And since the theme's files are never modified, switching to another theme and back gives you the theme as it shipped. These tools are off by default like every other write tool. If you would rather an agent never touched the design, simply leave them unticked.
