What has to be true first

Needs WordPress 6.9 or newer with the Abilities API, WooCommerce active, and this plugin active. Every ability checks manage_woocommerce, so a connected user needs that capability to read or change any cart-abandonment setting or statistic.

  • WooCommerce must be installed and active, since the plugin declares it as a hard requires_plugins dependency

How to switch these on

Four steps from two active plugins to a governed connection.

  1. Install Cart Abandonment Recovery for WooCommerce and Agent Abilities for MCP

    Both plugins need to be active on the same WordPress site. Cart Abandonment Recovery for WooCommerce 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 Cart Abandonment Recovery for WooCommerce 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.
