MCP for Gutenberg

Gutenberg is the block editor that ships with WordPress. WP MCP gives your AI agent surgical control of it: read a post's parsed block tree, inspect block schemas, then insert, update, move, duplicate, or remove blocks by index path, and drop in registered patterns. It operates on the real block document, not string replacement, so everything stays native and editable. This is a free-tier integration.

Frequently asked

Questions, answered.

Is Gutenberg editing free?

Yes. Because Gutenberg ships with WordPress, this works on a stock install with no page builder and no paid plan.

How does it avoid mangling markup?

Tools address blocks by index path on the parsed tree, not raw find-and-replace on serialized HTML.
