Connect Codex to WordPress
Add MoraWP to Codex in the desktop app, IDE extension, or CLI. Approve the websites it can reach, and let Codex work on WordPress.
Set up in three steps.
Works in the Codex desktop app, IDE extension, and CLI. First, connect your WordPress website in MoraWP; it takes a minute.
- 01
Add the server
In the desktop app or IDE extension, open MCP servers → Add server, name it morawp, choose Streamable HTTP, and use the server URL. From the terminal, run:
codex mcp add morawp --url https://mcp.morawp.com/mcp - 02
Sign in and approve
Choose Authenticate, or run codex mcp login morawp. Sign in in your browser, pick the workspace and the websites, and approve.
- 03
Ask for real work
Use /mcp to check MoraWP is connected, then ask Codex to list your websites.
What you can ask Codex.
Plain requests, on any WordPress website you connected, with any plugin it runs.
Read the homepage blocks and fix the heading order.
Add a custom field for the event date to the events post type.
Check why the contact form stopped sending, then tell me what you found.
Update the plugins on staging and tell me what changed.
Safe by default.
Codex works only where you allow it. How MoraWP keeps you in control
- Only the websites you choose
You pick the workspace and the websites when you approve. Everything else stays out of reach.
- Big changes ask first
Updates, deleting, and code wait for your yes. See exactly what will run, then approve it once or for 30 minutes.
- Every action on record
Each request lands in your activity with the agent, the website, and how it went. Remove the agent any time.

Codex can only do what you allow on each website. Big changes, like updating plugins, deleting content, or running code, ask you first: you see exactly what will run and approve it once or for 30 minutes. Every action is in your activity.
Any WordPress plugin. WooCommerce, Elementor, Rank Math, Yoast, Advanced Custom Fields and dozens more have abilities of their own, and every other plugin works through WordPress itself.
Yes. MoraWP is a remote MCP server for WordPress at https://mcp.morawp.com/mcp, with OAuth sign-in. The MoraWP Plugin on your website is what it talks to.
