What are the MainWP Tools?
MainWP MCP, MainWP Control and the MainWP Browser Extension connect through the Abilities API and REST API in your MainWP Dashboard, so they work with the sites, clients and updates you already manage there. Your Dashboard also has WP-CLI commands built in.
MainWP MCP
MainWP MCP connects Claude, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, VS Code Copilot and other MCP-compatible AI tools to your MainWP Dashboard. Ask which sites need updates or have disconnected, then sync, update or reconnect them in the same conversation. With MainWP 6.3, your AI assistant reads your agency, client and site knowledge before it works.
Read MoreMainWP Control
MainWP Control runs your MainWP Dashboard from the terminal. List sites, sync data and run updates across many sites with one command. JSON output and exit codes suit cron jobs, shell scripts and GitHub Actions, and a dry run shows what a command will change before it runs.

The MainWP Browser Extension shows pending updates and changes made outside MainWP in your browser toolbar, with a badge count and desktop notifications. It also runs Time Tracker timers. Install it from the Chrome Web Store for Chrome, Edge, Brave and other Chromium browsers.
