Governed ability
Create draft
aafm/create-draftGuarded write
Create draft is a governed ability in Agent Abilities for MCP, a free WordPress plugin that runs an MCP server on your site.
Create a new draft post. The agent drafts; a human publishes. Optional: slug, featured_media (attachment id), terms ({taxonomy: [termId]}, replaces existing terms per taxonomy), and meta ({key: value}, allowlisted keys only).
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 draft 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 draft 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.
Create draft is one of the 26 governed Content abilities. Browse the other Content abilities in the catalog.

Example requests you could paste to your agent.

Create a draft post from the notes I just shared.
Start a new draft called Release notes for version 2.
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.
