AI is changing everything—and now, it’s even building entire WordPress websites from scratch. Thanks to a new integration between Claude and WordPress via MCP (Meow Control Protocol), we’ve entered a whole new era of automated web development. No gimmicks, no bloated templates—just pure AI power.
🧠 What’s This About?
After experimenting with various solutions, TigrouMeow found that mcp-remote wasn’t reliable enough for controlling WordPress through Claude. So he built his own bridge—connecting JSON-RPC to SSE—and baked it right into the AI Engine plugin. Now, anyone running a WordPress site can directly control it using Claude.
This includes:
- Creating posts, pages, categories, and tags
- Managing menus, content structures, and layouts
- Even tweaking themes (yes, seriously)
🔧 The Setup (Simple and Free)
The free version of AI Engine now supports Claude via MCP, so you can start playing with this right now. All you need is:
- A WordPress website
- Claude access via Anthropic API
- The AI Engine plugin
Once connected, Claude becomes your content strategist, developer, and site builder—all in one.
💼 What Claude Can Do (So Far)
With some clear instructions and API support, Claude can:
- Generate an entire website from scratch
- Build a clean structure with all pages linked properly
- Insert optimized content with categories and metadata
- Generate images (via built-in image gen support)
- Even edit theme files without crashing your site
🧪 Real Examples
TigrouMeow built two complete WordPress sites without touching a single theme or plugin (besides AI Engine):
- MCP AI Website
A minimalist, clean site with perfectly linked pages and Claude-generated images. It’s a solid proof of concept. - Pacman AI Portal
A fully AI-generated retro site, listing old-school games (some even playable!). Claude handled everything from post creation to theme file edits—without breaking WordPress.
⭐ Why This Matters
This goes beyond automation. It’s a glimpse into the future of website creation, where humans guide strategy and AI handles execution. Whether you’re building niche blogs, portfolios, game hubs, or client sites, this tech saves hours of manual setup.
For developers, creators, and hobbyists—it’s a game changer.
🔒 What’s in the Pro Version?
TigrouMeow has also developed a Pro version of AI Engine, which expands MCP support with deeper theme control and advanced Claude integrations. Yes, it’s paid (a cat’s gotta eat 🐾), but it unlocks next-level creative control.
