Run Respira in WordPress. Manage every site from the dashboard.
The plugin gives site owners connection health, AI activity, approvals, snapshots, Skills, builders, reports, and settings where they already work. The Respira dashboard brings the same system together across every connected site.
Your WordPress content does not pass through Respira’s cloud.
Respira does not receive prompts, raw tool arguments, tool results, or WordPress content. Your chosen AI provider may process what you ask it to work on under its own terms; Respira receives metadata-only telemetry, which you can disable.
Your AI account. Your usage. No Respira token meter.
Use the Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, or other MCP access you already have. Respira charges for the WordPress connection—not per prompt or model token.
Aggregate telemetry across 2,304 connected WordPress sites,
counted from signed tool events and deduplicated by operation ID. Your content never leaves your server.

“I love Respira! I can now literally have a chat with Claude Code and have it update my Wordpress sites with no fuss. The MCP Server/Plugin combo is secure and robust - it's saving me hours updating client sites. it handles plugins, Elementor, the admin and front end of my sites.
What's great as well is that the developer is responsive, friendly and rolls out improvements regularly. Highly recommended!”

“Mihai, just wanted to say thanks for building Respira. I run a chiropractic clinic in Adelaide and I'm using Claude AI to rebuild my entire website in Bricks Builder. Respira filled a gap nothing else could: letting Claude actually read and write Bricks content through MCP. The fact that you built this as a solo developer, listened to early feedback, and kept shipping updates is genuinely impressive. Rooting for you and the product. Keep going! 🎉🚀”

“Respira feels easy to use and quite natural if you're used to working with Claude Code. Successful testing so far”

Hello, Respira has been my go to in building websites. The easy connection from WordPress to another AI platform. It is an amazing tool and wished I had found this earlier on in my journey.
The support team is spot on and ease of use of the interface. Thank you so much
for the ease of this connection.

We chose Respira over the official connector for one reason: snapshots before every write, and rollback if something goes wrong. Letting an AI agent touch a live client-facing site is only sensible if you can undo it — Respira is the only option that treats that as the default rather than an afterthought.

Respira is one of the first plugins to bring Divi 5 directly into an AI workflow, building sections and modules from Claude straight into WordPress. The page build quality isn't quite at human-built-Divi level yet, though some of that may be user error on my end. Getting the agent to use native Divi elements rather than code-built sections took some direction at first. Once there, the results were a solid starting point to work from.
Where it genuinely shines is everything outside of building, SEO auditing, bug checking, site advice, and having an AI agent that actually understands your WordPress setup. Early days, but worth testing out.

Avant Respira.press, travailler sur mon site WordPress avec Divi 4 était devenu une vraie perte de temps : modifications répétitives, copier-coller interminables, peur de casser le design en éditant les pages…
Aujourd’hui, je peux demander directement des ajustements précis tout en conservant la structure et le style de mes pages. Pour un site comme le mien avec beaucoup de contenu SEO et de mises en page Divi, c’est un gain de temps énorme au quotidien.

So far I have been using Respira to bridge the communication gap between claude code and wordpress. Not too difficult to get up and running. Working great so far for a proof of concept I have been developing.

If you aren't using Respira to power your Claude interactions, you're working too hard. It turns complex site management into a simple conversation. I've slashed my maintenance time on GTCKSA by at least 80%—it's easily the best investment I've made for my WordPress stack this year

J’ai testé Respira sur mes premières modifications avec Divi 5… et franchement, ça fonctionne super bien.
J’ai pu automatiser des petites tâches que je faisais jusque-là à la main, et qui pouvaient me prendre des heures sans réelle valeur ajoutée.
Typiquement le genre d’outil qui ne change pas tout ton process, mais qui te fait gagner un temps précieux au quotidien.

Using respira.press has been an absolute breath of fresh air for my workflow. The platform is beautifully minimal, incredibly intuitive, and takes all the stress out of publishing. It finally lets me focus on what matters most—my content—without getting bogged down by technical clutter. I couldn't recommend it highly enough!

Respira made the entire setup incredibly simple. Within minutes, everything was up and running without any hassle. What really impressed me was the impact – having a full WordPress site generated automatically, while still being able to fine-tune everything manually with Divi, is a game changer. It gives you the perfect balance between automation and full creative control.
Respira can move quickly because control is built into the path: duplicate, inspect,
approve, and keep the receipt.
01
Duplicate-first by default
Page edits begin on a working copy, so review happens before publication.
02
Review the exact change
Open the duplicate in WordPress and compare what the agent actually changed.
03
Restore from a snapshot
Page and element edits create recovery points before they alter content.
04
Approve with a receipt
Sensitive operations pause for consent and return an auditable result.
The difference
Before Respira
2-4 hours per week on manual updates.
Logging into wp-admin constantly. Breaking layouts.
Same update on 10 pages means 10 times the work.
Paying developers for simple text changes.
With Respira
5-10 minutes per week. Tell AI what you want
in plain English. Changes on safe duplicate pages.
Review, approve, publish. One command updates
every page. Original site never touched.
Respira detects the active builder and gives the agent its native structure, modules, widgets, and controls.
02
WordPress Abilities
170+ core abilities
The plugin registers a discoverable WordPress Abilities surface. Browser WebMCP support is available for compatible experimental clients.
03
Approval and recovery
A safety path around write access
Duplicate-first page edits, snapshots, explicit approval boundaries, and receipts make agent work reviewable.
04
Analysis and operations
From diagnosis to a bounded fix
Inspect SEO, accessibility, performance, site structure, and security, then use the same connection for supported remediation.

Plain answers
Questions, answered without the pitch.
The short version: Respira gives AI a bounded way to inspect and change WordPress.
These are the details people usually need before connecting a site.
Start and connect
Do I need to be a developer?
No. Respira is designed around plain-language instructions and reviewable results. Technical users can go deeper, but the normal path is: connect a site, ask for the change, inspect it, and approve it.
What is the quickest way to connect?
Install Respira for WordPress, then use the account-aware setup in your MCP dashboard. Local MCP users can also run the one-line installer shown near the top of this page.
Which AI clients work with Respira?
Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, and other MCP-compatible clients can use the desktop or remote MCP connection. Browser WebMCP is also built into the plugin, but the browser standard remains experimental and needs a compatible browser and agent configuration.
Can I try it before paying?
Yes. The public trial gives you seven days of full product use without a purchase. Current plan, billing, and refund details always live on the pricing page.
Safety and control
What happens if an agent makes a bad edit?
Page work is duplicate-first by default, and supported edits create snapshots. You can review the duplicate before publication and restore a recovery point when needed.
Does Respira make every agent action risk-free?
No software can make unrestricted production access risk-free. Respira reduces risk with scoped tools, authentication, duplicate-first editing, snapshots, explicit approvals for sensitive operations, and audit receipts. You should still keep recoverable host backups.
Does Respira scan security and accessibility?
Yes. The dashboard includes a WCAG-oriented accessibility scanner and a reviewed WordPress vulnerability scanner. Both produce evidence and a guided fixing path. Security remediation needs the Respira plugin because version, checksum, user, plugin, and file evidence comes from inside WordPress.
Does Respira publish changes automatically?
The normal page-editing path does not. It creates a duplicate for review, and publication is a separate decision. Other write operations are bounded by their own capability and approval rules.
Coverage
How much of WordPress can it work with?
The source-derived catalog currently contains 210+ core tools and abilities, or 320+ with WooCommerce. A live site sees the subset that matches its installed products and active builder.
Which page builders are supported?
Respira currently ships support for 17 builders and WordPress platforms, including Gutenberg, Elementor, Divi, Bricks, Oxygen, Breakdance, Beaver Builder, WPBakery, Flatsome, Brizy, Visual Composer, Thrive Architect, Spectra, Kadence Blocks, GenerateBlocks, GreenShift, and SeedProd.
Does the AI edit inside the visual builder canvas?
It edits the builder’s native stored structure through WordPress, then the visual builder renders that structure normally. You continue to use the builder UI for visual review.
Why can my live MCP tool count be lower than the headline?
The 306-tool desktop surface is context-filtered. Respira hides tools for builders and add-ons that the connected site cannot run, so a Gutenberg-only site receives a smaller, safer list.
Architecture
What is MCP?
Model Context Protocol is a standard way for an AI client to discover and call external tools. Respira implements the WordPress side, including authentication, site context, approval boundaries, and receipts.
How is Respira different from a generic WordPress MCP connection?
Respira adds builder-aware operations, duplicate-first workflows, snapshots, approval gates, remote account connections, audit history, and product-specific tools. Compare capabilities and safety behavior, not just whether both products speak MCP.
Do I need SSH or a particular host?
No. The standard connection runs through the WordPress plugin and authenticated web APIs. Some host-level incident-response steps, such as inspecting server logs or rotating database credentials, still require your hosting provider.
Does Respira include the AI model subscription?
No. Respira is the WordPress infrastructure and control layer. Your AI client or model subscription remains separate.

About Respira - The Vibe Coding Plugin for WordPress
Respira for WordPress connects AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf and Codex CLI to a live WordPress site over MCP. Edits start on a duplicate of the page, every change is snapshotted, and sensitive operations wait for explicit approval and return a receipt. The live site changes only after review.
The plugin speaks 17 page builders natively plus the WordPress Site Editor, and exposes 320+ tools and abilities over MCP and the WordPress Abilities API. It is built and maintained by one developer and shaped by user bug reports; the changelog credits them by initials.
Connect the site to Cursor over MCP, then ask for the change in plain English. Respira duplicates the page before the edit, writes in the builder's own format so the page still opens in its editor, and holds publication until the change is reviewed and approved in WordPress. A snapshot exists for rollback either way.
WordPress MCP Alternative
Most WordPress MCP servers expose reads and generic writes. Respira adds what production sites need on top: authenticated builder-aware writes for 17 builders, a duplicate-first workflow, approval boundaries, snapshots with rollback, and an activity log that records who changed what and when.
Non-Developer WordPress AI Editing
No code is required. Describe the change in plain English to Claude or ChatGPT, review the result on a duplicate page in wp-admin, and approve it. Developers get optional extras: a CLI, an SDK, and reusable skills.
