This is the core build course in the track. You will register real WordPress abilities
with wp_register_ability(), write JSON Schemas and permission callbacks that actually
hold up under scrutiny, serve those abilities to AI clients over both HTTP and STDIO
using the official MCP Adapter, and walk out with a working MCP server you could
reasonably run in production. Every lesson uses real, verifiable WordPress core
functions and the actual WordPress/mcp-adapter plugin, no invented APIs.
This course assumes you already know what an ability is, what the Abilities API and MCP Adapter are for, and have a working local WordPress 6.9+ environment. If any of that is new to you, start with WordPress AI Foundations first. Once your MCP server is live, the natural next step is Connect AI Assistants & Agents to WordPress, which covers pointing real clients like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and ChatGPT at the server you just built and turning it into a working conversational assistant.
