It can be run for free with the [Claudaborative Editing MCP server](https://www.npmjs.com/package/claudaborative-editing), which can be installed in your local copy of Claude Code. For a complete seamless experience, we recommend a [Claudaborative Cloud](https://claudaborative.cloud) subscription, which does all of the hard work for you. This plugin has no official affiliation with Anthropic or Claude. ### Development The source code is available on GitHub: [Claudaborative Editing on GitHub](https://github.com/pento/claudaborative-editing) Source files are in the `wordpress-plugin/` directory. See the repository `README. md` for build instructions. ## Screenshots * [[ * The Compose panel, a two-way conversation sidebar for planning and outlining a post. * [[ * The block toolbar dropdown with AI actions: Proofread, Review, Translate, and Edit. * [[ * Notes integration in the collaboration sidebar, with per-note action buttons and an address-all-notes control. * [[ * The pre-publish checks panel, with AI-suggested excerpt, categories, tags, and slug. ## FAQ ### Does this work without Claude Code? The free version requires Claude Code. The plugin provides the browser-side UI, but all AI processing happens through a Claude Code session running the Claudaborative Editing MCP server. If you don’t want to use Claude Code, then a [Claudaborative Cloud](https://claudaborative.cloud) subscription is the way to go. ### What version of WordPress is required? WordPress 7.0 or later for a standalone block editor experience, or WordPress 6.9 and Gutenberg 22.8+ if you’re using the Gutenberg plugin. Collaborative editing must be enabled in Writing settings. ### How do I set up the MCP server? 1. Install [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/download) if you haven’t already. 2. Run the following command in your terminal: 3. npx claudaborative-editing start This will configure and launch Claude Code with the Claudaborative Editing MCP server. The setup wizard will open your browser to authorize with your WordPress site on the first run. Alternatively, you can set up the credentials separately: ``` npx claudaborative-editing setup ``` Then start Claude Code with channels enabled: ``` claude --dangerously-load-development-channels server:wpce --permission-mode acceptEdits ``` ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Claudaborative Editing” is open source software.
