What it does
A local MCP server in Automattic's GitHub organisation that connects Claude Desktop to a WordPress.com account's Reader. Through it you can read the feed of blogs you follow, check notifications for comments, likes and follows, subscribe to or drop tags, follow or unfollow blogs, get blog recommendations and read Automattic's internal A8C posts. Setup needs a WordPress.com developer app with a client ID and secret, Node.js, and a small local web app that runs the OAuth sign-in; a setup script tries to do this automatically.
Capabilities
- Read the WordPress.com Reader feed
- Check WordPress.com notifications
- Follow or unfollow blogs and tags
- Get blog recommendations
