How to switch these on

Four steps from two active plugins to a governed connection.

  1. Install Cookiebot and Agent Abilities for MCP

    Both plugins need to be active on the same WordPress site. Cookiebot registers its own abilities; this plugin discovers and governs them.

  2. Open the Other plugins screen

    In Agent Abilities for MCP, open the Bridge tab (labeled "Other plugins" in the admin). Abilities from every registered plugin appear there, grouped by the plugin that registered them.

  3. Enable one ability at a time

    Every ability from Cookiebot starts off. Turn on only the ones you want an agent to reach, or enable the whole set in one click.

  4. Connect as a least-privilege user

    Approve the connection as a WordPress account scoped to what you actually want the agent to do. Each call still re-checks that account’s capability before it runs.

Frequently asked questions

Does Cookiebot work with the Bridge?

Yes. It registers six abilities through wp_register_ability unconditionally, covering status, compliance, and configuration of the Cookiebot consent banner.

Do Cookiebot's abilities register automatically?

Yes, unconditionally, once Cookiebot is active. Nothing else has to be configured for the Bridge to discover them.

Does Cookiebot need anything special to work with the Bridge?

Cookiebot must be active with WordPress 6.9 or newer. Every ability checks the manage_options capability, and install-ppg additionally requires install_plugins.

Verified from Cookiebot's own free wordpress.org code on 28 September 2026, not from its marketing claims. Not every ability listed here has been run end to end against a live site. Plugin authors change their code, so a name, a capability, or a condition can be different in a later release. This site is not affiliated with, or endorsed by, cookiebot or Cookiebot.
