How it works

Structured agent-readiness for WordPress

Open for Agents creates a controlled public contract for agents: what they can discover, which surfaces are available, and whether those surfaces actually work outside the WordPress admin.

Surfaces the plugin creates

The plugin is built around explicit discovery surfaces rather than hoping agents infer site behavior from theme markup. Launch surfaces include Open for Agents REST endpoints, well-known discovery files,llms.txt, and browser-runtime metadata for compatible agent clients.

Safety model

Defaults are conservative. Public publishing is explicit, read-only discovery is the baseline, and uncertain or higher-impact surfaces stay behind review. The product validates technical capability by checking the public surfaces a WordPress site intentionally exposes.

Operator workflow

1. Install the plugin and start from conservative defaults.
2. Review the generated discovery surfaces and safety flags.
3. Validate public URLs through the real host, cache, and CDN.
4. Publish only the surfaces you approve.
5. Revalidate after infrastructure, plugin, or policy changes.

Public validation matters

WordPress configuration can look correct locally while public traffic still fails because of redirects, blocked well-known paths, cached responses, proxy rules, or host security defaults. Open for Agents treats public validation as part of the product, not an afterthought.
