Get plugin settings is a WordPress ability from Imagify — usable via Easy MCP AI, which connects Claude, ChatGPT, and any AI assistant to your site.
Install Free Plugin →Get plugin settings
Read-onlyReturns Imagify's current configuration options, with the API key redacted.
Requires the Imagify plugin on WordPress 6.9+ for the Abilities API (abilities are registered only when the wp_register_ability() function exists). Most abilities are gated by the Imagify 'manage' capability, resolved through Imagify's own capability abstraction (honors the imagify_capacity filter and multisite network-admin logic; equivalent to manage_options by default); the bulk-optimize, generate-missing-nextgen, and restore-media abilities instead check the WordPress 'manage_options' capability directly.
What it does
This ability returns all of Imagify's user-facing configuration values — optimization level, lossless mode, auto-optimize-on-upload, backup, resize and CDN settings, next-gen format delivery options, and more — as a single object. The internal 'version' key and the 'api_key' value are stripped so credentials are never exposed over this channel. Use it to audit a site's current Imagify configuration before recommending changes, or to answer questions about how the plugin is currently set up.

You ask your AI assistant
"Show me the current Imagify settings — is auto-optimize on upload enabled, and what optimization level is set?"
Returns
An object mirroring Imagify's settings schema (e.g. optimization_level, lossless, auto_optimize, backup, resize_larger, display_nextgen, display_webp, cdn_url, optimization_format, and related keys), with 'version' and 'api_key' omitted.
Permission
The current user must have the Imagify 'manage' capability.
