Airano MCP Bridge

Descripción

Airano MCP Bridge is the official companion plugin for MCP Hub (source) — the AI-native management hub for WordPress, WooCommerce, and self-hosted services. It extends the WordPress REST API with dedicated routes that AI agents (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code Copilot) and the MCP Hub server rely on:

  • SEO meta routes — read and write Rank Math SEO and Yoast SEO metadata for posts, pages, and WooCommerce products.
  • Media upload helper routes — accept raw-binary uploads via php://input, which bypasses the upload_max_filesize PHP limit (still bounded by post_max_size). Unlocks reliable hero-image and large-asset uploads for AI-agent workflows.
  • Capability probe — reports the effective PHP + WordPress upload limits so MCP Hub can pick the right upload path automatically.

Features:

  • Rank Math SEO Support — Full access to all Rank Math meta fields
  • Yoast SEO Support — Full access to all Yoast SEO meta fields
  • WooCommerce Compatible — Works with product post types
  • MCP Hub media pipeline — bypasses upload_max_filesize for AI-agent uploads
  • Secure — Requires WordPress Application Password + capability checks on every route
  • Auto-Detection — Automatically detects active SEO plugin and advertises capabilities
  • Zero Configuration — Works out of the box after activation

REST API Endpoints:

Instalación

  1. Upload the airano-mcp-bridge folder to /wp-content/plugins/
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  3. For SEO meta routes: ensure either Rank Math SEO or Yoast SEO is active
  4. The REST API endpoints are now available

FAQ

Which SEO plugins are supported?

Rank Math SEO and Yoast SEO. The plugin auto-detects which one is active.

Does it work with WooCommerce?

Yes. Product SEO endpoints are available when WooCommerce is active.

How is authentication handled?

All endpoints require WordPress Application Password authentication. SEO routes require edit_posts. Upload helper routes require upload_files or manage_options.

Do I need MCP Hub to use the upload helper routes?

No. The /airano-mcp/v1/upload-chunk route is a standard authenticated REST endpoint and can be used from any client that can send a raw-binary POST with Content-Disposition and Content-Type headers.

Is there a size cap on the upload helper?

The helper reads the request body via php://input, which is not subject to PHP’s upload_max_filesize limit — but it is still bounded by post_max_size and memory_limit. For files larger than post_max_size, MCP Hub falls back to its own server-side chunked session pipeline.

Why keep the folder name “airano-mcp-bridge” even though the plugin now does more than SEO?

Plugin slugs on wordpress.org are permanent. Existing installs keep working; the display name and feature set are updated in 2.0.0.

Can I use this without MCP Hub?

Yes. All REST API endpoints work with any application that can make authenticated HTTP requests.

2.10.3

  • WordPress.org review fix: rename main class from the generic SEO_API_Bridge to Airano_MCP_Bridge per the wp.org “unique prefixes” guideline. The class is only instantiated from this file’s bootstrap line and is never referenced by callers (the plugin’s public surface is its REST routes, not its PHP class), so this is an internal refactor with no behaviour change.

2.10.2

  • WordPress.org review fixes:
    • Drop the unused wp-admin/includes/media.php includes from /upload-chunk and /upload-and-attach. The code only uses helpers from file.php (wp_tempnam, wp_handle_sideload) and image.php (wp_generate_attachment_metadata) — media.php was a needless direct core include.
    • Split /upload-and-attach permission_callback into its own method (require_upload_and_attach_capability) that explicitly enforces current_user_can('edit_post', $attach_to_post) at the route gate when attach_to_post is supplied (no longer hidden inside the callback body), and rejects set_featured requests that don’t include a target post.
  • No behaviour changes for clients sending well-formed requests.

2.10.1

  • Fix: capabilities and site-health routes now share a single source of truth for the routes bitmap (previously duplicated with conflicting values for audit_hook and missing upload_and_attach). Both endpoints now read from the shared route-map constant.

2.10.0

  • POST /wp-json/airano-mcp/v1/upload-and-attach now honours an Idempotency-Key request header. A retry within 24 hours with the same key returns the already-created attachment (_idempotent_replay: true) rather than creating a duplicate -2.webp orphan. Protects against client-timeout regressions where a successful upload was retried because the response was lost.

2.9.0

  • Added POST /wp-json/airano-mcp/v1/upload-and-attach — same raw-body semantics as /upload-chunk, but accepts query params (attach_to_post, set_featured, title, alt_text, caption, description) and applies them in one PHP round-trip. Saves 2-3 REST calls per upload. Per-target permission enforced via current_user_can('edit_post', attach_to_post).
  • status + capabilities routes now advertise upload_and_attach: true alongside the existing capability flags.

2.8.0

  • Added POST /wp-json/airano-mcp/v1/regenerate-thumbnails — rebuild attachment sub-sizes via wp_generate_attachment_metadata() after an upload or format conversion changes source pixels. Supports two modes: { "ids": [...] } for targeted regeneration (up to 50 per call) and { "all": true, "offset": N, "limit": M } for paged batches (max 50 per page, with has_more + next_offset for pagination). Non-image attachments are skipped; per-item permission check via current_user_can('edit_post', $attachment_id). Permission: upload_files or manage_options.

2.7.0

  • Added GET|POST|DELETE /wp-json/airano-mcp/v1/audit-hook — configure a webhook that forwards WordPress action events (post transitions, deletions, user events, plugin activations, theme switches) to MCP Hub for unified auditing. Each event is signed with HMAC-SHA256 using a shared secret and posted non-blocking via wp_remote_post so the admin UI stays snappy. Secret is stored in wp_options and never echoed back in GET responses (only the last 4 characters are returned). Permission: manage_options.

2.6.0

  • Added GET /wp-json/airano-mcp/v1/site-health — single-envelope health snapshot: WordPress version/multisite/locale, PHP version + critical extensions, server software + disk free, MySQL/MariaDB version + charset, active plugins list (with versions), active + parent theme, writability checks (wp-content, uploads) and SSL status. Replaces 5+ separate REST calls with a single request. Permission: manage_options.

2.5.0

  • Added POST /wp-json/airano-mcp/v1/transient-flush — native PHP transient cleanup. Scopes: expired (default, calls delete_expired_transients()), all (delete every _transient_% row), or pattern (glob match, e.g. rank_math_*). Optional include_site_transients for multisite. Response includes deleted_count + capped deleted_sample for observability. Permission: manage_options.

2.4.0

  • Added POST /wp-json/airano-mcp/v1/cache-purge — auto-detects active page-cache plugins (LiteSpeed Cache, WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, WP Super Cache, WP Fastest Cache, SiteGround Optimizer) and triggers their purge API. Always calls wp_cache_flush() for object caches. Permission: manage_options. Removes the need for Docker-socket + WP-CLI to flush caches on managed hosts.

2.3.0

  • Added GET /wp-json/airano-mcp/v1/export — structured JSON export of posts, pages, and WooCommerce products (not WXR). Query params: post_type, status, since, limit (max 500), offset, include_media, include_terms, include_meta. Response includes posts + referenced media + taxonomy terms + post meta in a single envelope, plus has_more / next_offset for pagination. Permission: edit_posts.

2.2.0

  • Added POST /wp-json/airano-mcp/v1/bulk-meta — writes many post_meta / product_meta entries in a single REST request. Capped at 500 items per call; each item is permission-checked via current_user_can('edit_post', $post_id). Null meta values delete the key. Status endpoint now advertises capabilities.bulk_meta = true and the capabilities probe reports routes.bulk_meta = true.

2.1.0

  • Added GET /wp-json/airano-mcp/v1/capabilities — reports the effective capabilities of the calling application password, plus feature flags (Rank Math / Yoast / WooCommerce / multisite) and the list of companion routes this version actually ships. Consumed by MCP Hub’s capability probe so per-user clients only see tools they’re actually authorised to use.
  • Status endpoint now advertises capabilities.capabilities = true.

2.0.0

  • Rebrand: “Airano MCP SEO Meta Bridge” “Airano MCP Bridge”. The companion plugin is no longer SEO-only.
  • Added GET /wp-json/airano-mcp/v1/upload-limits — returns effective PHP + WP upload limits for MCP Hub probes.
  • Added POST /wp-json/airano-mcp/v1/upload-chunk — raw-body upload route that bypasses upload_max_filesize.
  • Status endpoint now includes capabilities: { seo_meta, upload_limits, upload_chunk }.
  • Plugin folder / slug unchanged: airano-mcp-bridge (permanent on wordpress.org).
