Get Theme Settings is a WordPress ability from Page Builder: Pagelayer – Drag and Drop website builder — usable via Easy MCP AI, which connects Claude, ChatGPT, and any AI assistant to your site.
Install Free Plugin →Get Theme Settings
Read-onlyRetrieve site name/description, active theme, content width, WooCommerce status, and the current global colors/fonts.
Requires the Pagelayer plugin on WordPress 6.9+ (or another source of wp_register_ability()) for the Abilities API — registration is skipped entirely via a function_exists() guard when it isn't available, and ability categories similarly require wp_register_ability_category(). Most abilities require the 'edit_posts' capability; update-global-styles, create-menu, and delete-menu require 'manage_options'. search-images additionally needs a Pexels API key configured on the Pagelayer AI Agents settings page, and get-library-sections/import-library-section call Pagelayer's own hosted library API. Four near-duplicate abilities (get-widget, get-widgets-summary, edit-layout, navigator) are registered in source with mcp_public:false — fully callable over the REST Abilities API but intentionally left out of the advertised MCP tool list as duplicates of get-widget-schema, list-widgets, update-page, and get-page respectively — and are excluded from this listing.
What it does
Reads the site's blogname/blogdescription, the active theme name, the pagelayer_content_width option, whether WooCommerce is active, and the decoded pagelayer_global_colors/pagelayer_global_fonts options, plus the raw pagelayer_options array. Gives an AI client a one-call snapshot of the site's current configuration before making global changes.
