Description

wp_create_post is the Easy MCP AI tool that makes Vibe Blogging real. You describe what you want — 'write a 1,000-word post about productivity tips, assign it to the Blog category, and publish it' — and Easy MCP AI calls this tool on your WordPress site, creating the post without you touching the admin panel. The AI controls the full post object: title, body content, categories, tags, post format, and publish status, all resolved in a single conversation turn. Easy MCP AI runs as a pure PHP plugin on your existing WordPress hosting with no Node.js and no external proxy, so the post lands in your database the moment your AI client calls this tool. Stack it with a web search MCP tool and an image generation tool and Claude can research, write, illustrate, and publish a complete article entirely hands-free.
