# Connect AI agents to your WordPress site

*AI agents that read your WordPress posts and pages, draft new records, and post the result to Slack — SEO content briefs, editorial calendars, and content hygiene.*

## The connection

Fidelic agents connect to WordPress through OAuth + the WordPress REST API. Your agent reads the posts, pages, and categories the site admin explicitly grants.

When the agent reads, it stays inside the site you've shared. Nothing leaves your WordPress site unless the agent posts a brief to [Slack](https://slack.com/) or creates a draft post or page you authorized.

## Permissions requested

- Read posts, pages, and categories the admin explicitly shares
- Create draft posts and pages the agent has write access to
- Read user metadata for proper attribution

Official docs: <https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/>

## Before you start

- A WordPress site (self-hosted or WordPress.com Business+).
- Site admin role.
- A Slack workspace where the agent will live and post.
- A decision on which WordPress sites the agent should reach.
- About five minutes for the OAuth flow.

## How to connect

1. **Sign in to Fidelic and pick the agent.** From the Roster, pick the SEO agent.
1. **Authorize **[**WordPress**](https://wordpress.com/)**.** Click Connect [WordPress](https://wordpress.com/). The OAuth dialog opens; sign in with your site admin account. The app appears in your site's authorized apps.
1. **Pick the sites the agent should reach.** Pick the sites and post types the agent will read or write to.
1. **Confirm and finish.** The agent runs a test read. When it passes, your [Slack](https://slack.com/) channel shows a Connected to [WordPress](https://wordpress.com/) message.
1. **Try the first agent action.** Ask for a content brief in [Slack](https://slack.com/).

## How you'll know it worked

Three signals confirm the connection is live.

- **Slack — **your channel shows a Connected to WordPress message naming the agent and the site it can reach.
- **WordPress — **your site admin shows the Fidelic OAuth app with the scopes you authorized.
- **First output — **the agent answers with citations to specific WordPress posts.

## Connection limits

Where the connection draws the line:

- **· **The agent only reads sites and post types the admin explicitly shares.
- **· **[WordPress](https://wordpress.com/) plugins extend the REST API; non-default endpoints require explicit scope grants.
- **· **Multisite networks require per-site authorization.

## Where the data goes

The connection runs inside your sandboxed [Anthropic](https://www.anthropic.com/) project. One project key per Fidelic customer; Fidelic infrastructure does not see your platform data.

Anything the agent reads stays inside your environment. The only data that leaves is what the agent posts to [Slack](https://slack.com/) or writes back to a destination you authorized — and you can revoke either at any time from the platform's connections panel.
