CommunityTech Workflow

Companion plugin for CommunityTech automation workflows. Exposes REST API endpoints for MCP integrations and future workflow tooling.

Description

CommunityTech Workflow is a modular companion plugin that bridges WordPress/Elementor with external automation tools (MCP servers, CI/CD, etc.).

Current Modules:

• Elementor Kit Settings — Exposes global colors, typography, and theme style via REST API endpoints, enabling programmatic read/write of the Elementor design system.
• Elementor CSS Manager — Regenerate Elementor CSS files after programmatic page data updates.
• Elementor Widget Registry — Discover all registered widgets, their controls, content fields, and categories via REST API.
• SiteSEO — Read and update SEO metadata per post/page, audit SEO completeness across the site, and read/update global SiteSEO settings.
• Elementor Render Rebuild — Force Elementor to rebuild rendered HTML (post_content) after programmatic data updates via REST API.
• WP Options — Read, update, and delete wp_options entries via REST API (admin only).

The plugin uses an auto-discovery module system. Drop a new module folder into includes/modules/ and it will be picked up automatically.
