SiteSkite MCP AI – Connector for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor & WordPress WebOps

SiteSkite is a WebOps for WordPress built for agencies, developers, and site owners who manage one site or many.

Connect your sites for backups, updates, monitoring, sandboxes, and team workflows — and, with SiteSkite AI, edit a live WordPress site using assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor. Live on-site edits with WordPress AI do not use SiteSkite AI Site Studio credits.

Whether you manage 1 site or 100+, SiteSkite simplifies WordPress maintenance and scales with your workflow.

Important: SiteSkite only manages your website after you connect it with a secure API key. Plugin installs, activations, and maintenance actions are initiated from your SiteSkite account so you stay in control.

SiteSkite AI & MCP (new in 2.1.0)

Connect once at https://mcp.siteskite.com, sign in with your SiteSkite account, and use Quick Connect for Claude or ChatGPT (Cursor and other clients supported too).

Per site, pick how AI works: – Off — AI will not change that site – WordPress AI — edit the live website (pages, menus, forms, Gutenberg, Elementor, WPBakery, and more) – Platform AI — SiteSkite portal tools (backups, sandboxes, AI Site Studio, and more)

Only one mode can be active at a time.

With WordPress AI you can: – Create, edit, and publish pages – Install and toggle plugins – Edit with the WordPress block editor (keep the Block Editor Queue page open while the assistant works) – Build Elementor and WPBakery layouts – Manage menus and add images from a URL – List forms and create Contact Form 7 forms

You stay in control: – Turn individual AI actions on or off in Abilities – Keep Advanced Power Tools off unless you want deeper server-side actions (PHP, WP-CLI, files) – Add site notes in Context so the AI follows your preferences – Use Skills (ready-made playbooks) for Gutenberg, Elementor, WPBakery, and more
