Governed ability
Get post
aafm/get-postRead only
Get post is a governed ability in Agent Abilities for MCP, a free WordPress plugin that runs an MCP server on your site.
Retrieve a single post by ID. Returns id, title, status, type, slug, link, author {id, display_name}, dates, full content (rendered HTML by default, or raw markup via content_format; omitted for password-protected posts), excerpt, terms grouped by taxonomy, featured_image {id, url, alt} or null, and meta (allowlisted scalar values 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, Get post 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 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 is one of the 26 governed Content abilities. Browse the other Content abilities in the catalog.

Example requests you could paste to your agent.
Get post 142 with its full rendered content.
Show me the raw markup and terms for post 88.
Pull up post 305 including its featured image.
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.
