## Description

**WebMCP Bridge** exposes your WordPress (and WooCommerce) functionality as [WebMCP](https://github.com/webmcp/webmcp-spec)
tools that AI agents can discover and invoke directly in the browser.

Once installed, your site automatically becomes “agent-friendly”:

 * AI agents can **search posts, pages, and custom post types**
 * AI agents can **browse products, manage the cart, apply coupons** (WooCommerce)
 * AI agents can **read navigation menus and site metadata**
 * Developers can **register custom tools** in minutes via a simple PHP API

**What is WebMCP?**

WebMCP is a new browser-native protocol (currently in Chrome Early Preview) that
lets web apps expose their functionality as structured “tools” that AI agents can
invoke — without needing to screenshot or parse HTML. Think of your website as an
MCP server running entirely client-side.

**How it works**

 1. Install and activate the plugin
 2. Enable the features you want from **Settings  WebMCP Bridge**
 3. Your tool manifest is immediately available at `/wp-json/webmcp-bridge/v1/manifest`
 4. AI agents (or any JavaScript code) can call your tools via REST API or the native
    browser WebMCP API

**Included tools**

_Core:_

 * `search_posts` — Search posts, pages, or custom post types
 * `get_post` — Retrieve a single post by ID or slug
 * `get_menu` — Return navigation menu items
 * `get_categories` — List taxonomy terms
 * `get_site_info` — Site name, description, URL, language
 * `submit_contact_form` — Contact Form 7 integration

_WooCommerce (requires WooCommerce plugin):_

 * `woo_search_products` — Search by keyword, category, price range
 * `woo_get_product` — Full product details including attributes
 * `woo_add_to_cart` — Add a product to the cart
 * `woo_get_cart` — Current cart contents and totals
 * `woo_remove_from_cart` — Remove an item by cart key
 * `woo_apply_coupon` — Apply a coupon code
 * `woo_get_checkout_fields` — Return checkout field schema
 * `woo_get_product_categories` — List all product categories

**Even more powerful with Mescio for Agents**

WebMCP Bridge integrates automatically with the **Mescio for Agents** plugin. When
both plugins are active, two additional tools are unlocked:

 * `get_markdown_content` — Returns any post or page as clean Markdown, the format
   AI models consume most efficiently. Instead of raw HTML, agents receive structured,
   token-optimized content ready for reasoning and summarization.
 * `get_llms_txt` — Exposes the site-wide `llms.txt` context document (index or 
   full variant), giving agents an instant, structured overview of what the site
   is about, who it is for, and what content is available — before they even start
   searching.

Together, the two plugins turn your WordPress site into a fully AI-native content
source: WebMCP Bridge handles the tool layer (what agents can _do_), while Mescio
for Agents handles the content layer (what agents can _read_ and _understand_).

**Privacy**

This plugin does not collect, store, or transmit any user data to external servers.
All tool execution happens locally within your WordPress installation. No telemetry,
no phone-home, no external API calls.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `webmcp-bridge` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`
 2. Activate the plugin via **Plugins  Installed Plugins**
 3. Go to **Settings  WebMCP Bridge** and enable the features you want

#### Minimum Requirements

 * WordPress 6.0 or higher
 * PHP 8.0 or higher
 * WooCommerce 7.0+ (optional, only required for WooCommerce tools)
 * Contact Form 7 (optional, only required for form tools)
 * Mescio for Agents (optional, unlocks `get_markdown_content` and `get_llms_txt`)

## FAQ

### Do I need Chrome for this to work?

No. The REST API endpoints work in every browser and environment. The native WebMCP
browser registration is only available in Chrome Early Preview (experimental), but
the fallback JavaScript API (`window.webmcpBridgeTools`) and REST endpoints work
everywhere.

### Is this secure?

Yes. Read-only tools (search, get post, etc.) are publicly accessible by default,
matching WordPress’s own REST API behaviour. Write-action tools (add to cart, apply
coupon, submit form) require a valid WordPress nonce. You can customise which tools
require authentication via the `webmcp_bridge_protected_tools` filter.

### Does it work with WooCommerce?

Yes. WooCommerce tools are automatically registered when WooCommerce is active and
the WooCommerce option is enabled in settings.

### What does Mescio for Agents add?

When Mescio for Agents is active alongside WebMCP Bridge, two extra tools become
available in the manifest: `get_markdown_content` (AI-optimized content format) 
and `get_llms_txt` (site-wide context document). These are detected automatically—
no configuration needed.

### Can I add my own tools?

Absolutely. Use the PHP API:

    ```
    add_action( 'plugins_loaded', function() {
        if ( ! class_exists( 'WebMCP_Bridge_Tool_Registry' ) ) return;
        $registry = WebMCP_Bridge_Tool_Registry::instance();
        $registry->register( 'my_tool', [
            'description' => 'Does something useful.',
            'group'       => 'custom',
            'inputSchema' => [ 'type' => 'object', 'properties' => [] ],
            'callback'    => function( $params ) { return [ 'ok' => true ]; },
        ] );
    } );
    ```

### Where is the manifest URL?

https://your-site.com/wp-json/webmcp-bridge/v1/manifest

You can also find it on the **Settings  WebMCP Bridge** page with a one-click copy
button.

### Does this plugin collect any data?

No. WebMCP Bridge does not collect, store, or send any data to external servers.
See the Privacy section above.

## Changelog

#### 1.5.0

 * Added WooCommerce commerce agent discovery (active only when WooCommerce is installed):
    - OAuth Authorization Server metadata at /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server(
      RFC 8414)
    - OAuth Protected Resource metadata at /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource(
      RFC 9728)
    - Universal Commerce Protocol profile at /.well-known/ucp (ucp.dev)
    - Agentic Commerce Protocol discovery at /.well-known/acp.json (agenticcommerce.
      dev)
 * Added /wp-json/webmcp-bridge/v1/nonce endpoint — agents can fetch a fresh WP 
   REST nonce for authenticated tool calls
 * Discovery endpoint now includes commerce URLs when WooCommerce is active

#### 1.4.4

 * Added Content-Signal directives to robots.txt (contentsignals.org): ai-train=
   yes, search=yes, ai-input=yes — filterable via webmcp_bridge_content_signals 
   hook
 * Added Vary: Accept header so nginx/CDN caches correctly serve Markdown for Agents
   requests separately from HTML responses

#### 1.4.3

 * Fixed RFC 8288 Link discovery for cached sites: added tags in HTML via wp_head
 * Link tags are part of the cached HTML so agents find them even when nginx serves
   cached pages without running PHP
 * HTTP Link headers still added via wp_headers as secondary channel on cache misses

#### 1.4.2

 * Fixed RFC 8288 Link headers: switched from send_headers action to wp_headers 
   filter for reliable delivery through nginx/cache layers
 * Link headers now added to all pages (not just homepage) so agents can discover
   the API from any entry point

#### 1.4.1

 * Fixed Agent Skills index: added sha256 digest field to each skill entry (required
   by v0.2.0 spec)

#### 1.4.0

 * Added RFC 8288 Link response headers on homepage: advertises manifest, API catalog
   and MCP Server Card to agents
 * Added /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json (SEP-1649): MCP Server Card for agent
   discovery
 * Added /.well-known/api-catalog (RFC 9727): machine-readable API catalog including
   WebMCP and Mescio endpoints
 * Added /.well-known/agent-skills/index.json: Agent Skills discovery index listing
   all site capabilities

   is active

#### 1.3.2

 * Fixed PHP syntax error in sanitize_markdown() regex (inline event handler pattern)
 * All PHP files pass WordPress.org pre-commit syntax check

#### 1.3.1

 * Security: sanitize Markdown output in get_markdown_content and get_llms_txt —
   prevents stored XSS and prompt injection via post content
 * Removed admin_email from get_site_info response — not needed by agents, sensitive
   data
 * Removed author display_name from get_post response — exposes internal WordPress
   usernames
 * Added global rate limiting on /execute endpoint (default: 120 calls/60s, configurable
   in settings)
 * Rate limit is global (not per-IP) — effective against proxy rotation attacks;
   returns HTTP 429

#### 1.3.0

 * Removed admin_email from get_site_info — sensitive data not needed by agents
 * Removed author field from get_post — avoids exposing internal WordPress usernames
 * Added global rate limiting on /execute: configurable max calls per time window
   in settings
 * Rate limit counter uses WP transients; returns HTTP 429 when exceeded
 * Rate limit and window now editable from Settings  WebMCP Bridge

#### 1.2.0

 * Added Live API Examples section in admin: test every tool directly from the settings
   page
 * curl and JavaScript snippets auto-generated for each tool with real site URL

   and `get_llms_txt` tools
 * Manifest now filters tools based on enabled settings — disabled groups no longer
   appear
 * Added `site_url` and `mescio_for_agents` fields to manifest response
 * Tool groups refactored: core split into `content`, `navigation`, `forms` for 
   finer control
 * Improved error handling: registry now catches all `Throwable` (not just `Exception`)
 * Fixed `wp_remote_get` in llms-full.txt fetch: proper timeout, user-agent, SSL
   filter
 * Fixed: tools disabled in settings were still executable via REST — now correctly
   blocked
