Get System Info is a WordPress ability from JetBackup — usable via Easy MCP AI, which connects Claude, ChatGPT, and any AI assistant to your site.
Install Free Plugin →Get System Info
Read-onlyGet system information.
Requires the JetBackup plugin on WordPress 6.9+ for the Abilities API (abilities are registered only when the wp_register_ability() function exists), and JetBackup's own 'Abilities API' toggle must be turned on under Settings > Security. Every ability is additionally gated by JetBackup's permission callback: the caller must be logged in and hold the WordPress 'manage_options' capability (and be a network admin on multisite), and if JetBackup's MFA is enabled and abilities aren't explicitly allowed to bypass it, the caller must also have passed MFA validation.
What it does
This ability returns JetBackup's system compatibility and health report: a system_checks object of boolean flags (whether the data directory is secured, whether post_max_size is too small, PHP version compatibility, whether cron has run recently, whether heartbeat and cron automation are enabled, JetBackup Linux integration status, whether the server is Windows, and PDO MySQL buffered-query availability), a data object with current and recommended post_max_size values, an info object of general system information, and a total alert count. It takes no input. Before returning, JetBackup strips filesystem-path fields such as the secured directory and data directory paths from the response, so an AI assistant gets the health signals without exposing local server paths. This lets an assistant diagnose common JetBackup setup problems (undersized post_max_size, cron not running, incompatible PHP) directly from a conversation.

You ask your AI assistant
"Run a system info check — is my server compatible and are cron and heartbeat both working?"
Returns
An object with 'system_checks' (data_dir_secured, post_max_size undersized flag, php_compatible, cron_run, heartbeat, cron, jb_linux_status, isWindows, and pdo_mysql_buffered_query_available booleans), 'data' (post_max_size and recommended_post_max_size, with directory-path fields stripped), 'info' (general system information, with sensitive path fields stripped), and 'alerts' (total system alert count).
Permission
The current user must be logged in and hold the WordPress 'manage_options' capability (network admin on multisite), with JetBackup's Abilities API setting enabled.
