# mcpwp Status

Check the current state of a mcpwp-connected WordPress site. $ARGUMENTS = site name or leave blank for the active connection.

---

## Connection Health

Call `wp_site_info()` to get a full status snapshot:

```
wp_site_info()
```

Look for:
- **Plugin version** — compare to latest at https://mumega.com/spai-updates/version.json
- **Elementor status** — active, version, layout mode (`container` vs `classic`)
- **WooCommerce** — active or not
- **PHP version** — must be 7.4+, ideally 8.1+
- **WordPress version** — must be 6.0+

---

## Check for Updates

Fetch the update manifest:
```
wp_check_update()
```

Or check manually:
```bash
curl -s https://mumega.com/spai-updates/version.json | jq '{version, changelog}'
```

If an update is available, trigger it:
```
wp_trigger_update()
```

---

## Capabilities Check

Call `wp_introspect()` for the full capability map — shows which tool categories are enabled for your current API key role.

Key things to verify:
- `elementor` tools available → Elementor is active and connected
- `woocommerce` tools available → WooCommerce detected
- `learnpress` tools available → LearnPress detected
- `admin` tools available → key has admin role

## API Key Info

Check which keys exist and their roles:

wp_list_api_keys()
```

Create a restricted key for a specific use case:

wp_create_api_key(label="designer-key", role="designer")
```

Revoke a compromised key:
```
wp_revoke_api_key(key_id=KEY_ID)
```
