Governed ability

Trash page

aafm/trash-pageGuarded write

Trash page is a governed ability in Agent Abilities for MCP, a free WordPress plugin that runs an MCP server on your site.

Move a page to trash (recoverable, never permanently deleted).

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, Trash page 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 Trash page 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.

  • It can delete

    This ability can delete. Where WordPress supports it, items go to Trash and can be restored, and the last administrator can never be removed.

Trash page is one of the 26 governed Content abilities. Browse the other Content abilities in the catalog.

Try it with a prompt

Example requests you could paste to your agent.

  1. Move page 45 to the Trash.
  2. Trash the outdated Events page for me.
  3. Send the old Landing page to the Trash so I can restore it later.

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.

Frequently asked

Short answers for Trash page.

Is this permanent?

No, Trash page moves the page to the Trash where WordPress lets you restore it. It is never a permanent delete.

How is it controlled?

Trash page is off by default, requires delete access to the page, and the action is written to the audit log.

Get posts

Read only

List posts filtered by type, status, and search term. Each item returns id, title, status, type, slug, link, author {id, display_name}, dates, excerpt, terms grouped by taxonomy, featured_image {id, url, alt} or null, and allowlisted meta. Set include_content=true to also return full content per item; content_format (rendered or raw) only takes effect when include_content is true. Response includes total.

Count posts

Governed by default, from the first call.

Trash page is off until you enable it, scoped to the user you connect, and logged like everything else. Turn on only what you need.
