SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill connects a self-hosted WordPress site to a self-hosted Hermes agent so AI coding agents can authenticate, read, and manage site content without manual reconfiguration.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Self-hosted WordPress integration: Uses WordPress Application Passwords over HTTPS for secure REST access to posts, pages, media, and users.
  • Two connection paths: Supports the default REST-based workflow and an optional stdio MCP setup through the mcp-adapter plugin.
  • Production-grade safeguards: Verifies live authentication, checks HTTPS and role requirements, enforces idempotency, reloads the gateway safely, and provides rollback guidance.
  • Use Case: A site owner wants Claude Code or Hermes to publish draft posts, upload media, and inspect users on a VPS-backed WordPress installation with minimal manual steps.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to connect your self-hosted WordPress site to Hermes using HTTPS, a WordPress Application Password, and the default REST path unless you specifically need the optional MCP plugin route.

FAQPage Schema
How do I connect a self-hosted WordPress site to an AI agent using REST API?

To connect a self-hosted WordPress site to a Hermes agent, use WordPress Application Passwords over HTTPS for secure REST access to posts, pages, media, and users. This verifies live authentication and checks role requirements without manual reconfiguration.

Do I need HTTPS and Application Passwords to integrate WordPress with Hermes?

Yes, HTTPS and WordPress Application Passwords are required to integrate WordPress with Hermes. These prerequisites ensure secure authenticated REST access to manage site content, verify live /users/me endpoints, and enforce production-grade safeguards.

Can I use MCP adapter plugins instead of REST API for WordPress integration?

Yes, you can use an optional stdio MCP setup through the mcp-adapter plugin instead of the default REST API path. This alternative requires checking plugin or npx configurations when MCP mode is selected for your WordPress integration.

What's the best way to automate WordPress post management over SSH?

The best way to automate WordPress post management over SSH is by wiring authenticated REST access through a Hermes agent. This approach supports managing posts, pages, media, and users on self-hosted installations with idempotent env storage and safe gateway reloads.

Why does WordPress integration require live /users/me verification?

WordPress integration requires live /users/me verification to validate authenticated REST access before applying changes. This production-grade safeguard ensures the Hermes agent has correct permissions to manage site content safely and provides rollback guidance if checks fail.

Does WordPress MCP integration support media uploads and user inspection?

Yes, WordPress MCP integration and the default REST workflow support media uploads and user inspection. The Hermes agent can publish draft posts, upload media, and inspect users on VPS-backed self-hosted WordPress installations with minimal manual steps.
