Governed ability
Create content item
aafm/create-cpt-itemGuarded write
Create content item is a governed ability in Agent Abilities for MCP, a free WordPress plugin that runs an MCP server on your site.
Create an item of an allowlisted custom content type (post_type). Drafts unless the type's publish capability is held.
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, Create content item ships switched off. You turn it on one at a time, and an update never widens access on its own.
- Guarded write
Writes stay conservative, and the plugin re-checks the capability before the call runs.
- Capability gated
A connection only sees Create content item 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.

Try it with a prompt
Example requests you could paste to your agent.
Create a new portfolio item titled Riverside project.
Add an event content item called Fall meetup.
Make a new testimonial entry with this quote.
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.
