Governed ability
Get pending comments
aafm/get-pending-commentsRead only
Get pending comments is a governed ability in Agent Abilities for MCP, a free WordPress plugin that runs an MCP server on your site.
List the moderation queue (requires moderate_comments).
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 pending comments 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 pending comments 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.

List the pending comments so I can triage them.

Frequently asked
Short answers for Get pending comments.
What capability is required?
Get pending comments requires moderate_comments, since it exposes the moderation queue. Without that capability the call is denied and logged.
How is this different from get comments?
Get comments returns already-approved comments, while Get pending comments returns the queue of comments still awaiting moderation.
Is it on by default?
No. Get pending comments stays off until an administrator turns it on.
Governed by default, from the first call.
Get pending comments is off until you enable it, scoped to the user you connect, and logged like everything else. Turn on only what you need.
Every ability off until you enable it, capability-gated on every call.
