Governed ability

Get post ACF fields

aafm/acf-get-post-fieldsRead only

Get post ACF fields is a governed ability in Agent Abilities for MCP, a free WordPress plugin that runs an MCP server on your site.

Reads all of a post's ACF field values, hydrated by field key. Requires edit access to that post.

How it is governed

The same model as every ability in the plugin, stated for this one.

  • Off until you enable it

    Like every ability, Get post ACF fields ships switched off. You turn it on one at a time, and an update never widens access on its own.

  • Reads only

    It reads data and returns it to your client. Nothing on your site is created, changed, or removed.

  • Capability gated

    A connection only sees Get post ACF fields if the user you connected can run it, and the plugin checks that capability again before it executes.

  • Every call audited

    The call is written to the log in your own database, denials included, with the argument keys and the identifiers it touched, never free-text content.

Get post ACF fields is one of the 7 governed ACF abilities. See the full ACF MCP integration.

Try it with a prompt

Example requests you could paste to your agent.

  1. Read all the ACF field values on post 142 and show them by field key.
  2. What is stored in the subtitle and hero_image ACF fields for this landing page?
  3. Pull the custom field values for post 512 so I can review them before editing.

These are illustrative example prompts. The agent runs them as the user you connected, checked against that user's capabilities and written to your audit log.
