Builder integration · Bricks

Run an MCP server for Bricks.

20 dedicated tools across the full Bricks design system: global classes, theme styles, color palette, typography, components, query loops, ACSS, page diagnostics, and one-call design-system export.

Respira gives AI coding agents a structure-aware way to read and write Bricks content through a duplicate-first workflow. Page and element writes are snapshotted, and changes can be reviewed before going live.

What works

Capabilities shipped today

Concrete features in the current MCP server release. Tool names link directly to the adapter.

  • Full CRUD on Bricks global CSS classes (wordpress_list_bricks_global_classes, _create, _update, _delete).
  • Theme styles, color palette, and typography read + write (wordpress_get_bricks_theme_styles, _color_palette, _typography).
  • Saved components: list, get, and insert into pages with automatic ID remapping (wordpress_list_bricks_components, _apply_bricks_component).
  • Cross-site element search by type / class / setting (wordpress_search_bricks_elements) — audit your entire Bricks site in one call.
  • Page health diagnostics: orphaned elements, duplicate IDs, broken references, heading hierarchy (wordpress_bricks_health_check).
  • Automatic.css (ACSS) detection + import: utility classes flow into the Bricks global class registry with source tagging (wordpress_bricks_detect_acss, _import_acss).
  • Query loop discovery across the site, filterable by post type (wordpress_bricks_query_loops).
  • Style profile learning: analyse a page's patterns and create matching content (wordpress_bricks_style_profile).
  • One-call design system export (wordpress_bricks_design_system) — classes, colors, styles, typography, components — for AI context.
  • HTML → native Bricks element-tree conversion for prototypes.

Known limits

Where you still need a human pass

Honest list of edges. If you hit one of these, the snapshot workflow gives you a clean rollback path.

  • Bricks Templates CPT supports first-class CRUD via PATCH / DELETE, but condition trees with deeply nested logic still need a human review pass.
  • Optimistic locking prevents concurrent overwrites; if two agents try to write the same page in parallel, the second is rejected — by design.
  • Bricks Pro license is detected but not validated by Respira. License-gated features are accessible if the Pro plugin says so on the site side.

Example prompts

Three prompts you can paste right now

Each one assumes Respira is connected to your WordPress site through the MCP server below. Copy a prompt, paste into your MCP client, run.

Export the design system for AI context 

Call wordpress_bricks_design_system. Return the result so I can use it as context for the rest of this session.

Find every page using a specific global class 

Search every Bricks page and template for elements using the global class "btn-primary-lg". Group results by page title.

Run a health check on the home page 

Run wordpress_bricks_health_check on the home page. List orphaned elements, duplicate IDs, and heading hierarchy issues. Suggest fixes for the top 5.
