Site Helm MCP Server

An MCP server inside WordPress, so an AI agent can change a live site and you can see, approve and undo every change. It is available as a remote MCP endpoint.

Teams that work with acf, elementor and json rpc and want a hosted endpoint instead of running a local process. The project is written in PHP.
