Install
The author publishes release zips, so WP-CLI can install straight from GitHub:

Give your AI agents full access to your WordPress site. Nothing in between.

Novamira is an open-source WordPress plugin and MCP server that lets AI agents work directly inside WordPress. Agents can run PHP and WP-CLI commands, inspect the database, manage files, understand the active plugins and theme, and build working functionality against the real site.
The connection is direct between your AI client and your WordPress installation. Novamira is not a hosted proxy and your requests do not pass through Novamira servers.
[!WARNING] For dev and staging environments. With backups. Always.

Get started

- In WordPress, go to Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin, upload the ZIP, and activate Novamira.
- Open Novamira → Configuration, enable AI Abilities, and follow the instructions for your AI client and authentication method.
Use the release ZIP rather than GitHub's automatically generated source archive. The source archive does not include the bundled Composer dependencies required by the MCP server.
See the quick start guide for the complete connection flow.
