William Research Admin Agent Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
William Research Admin Agent adds a conversational AI assistant to WordPress Admin. Administrators connect their own Anthropic, Google Gemini, or Ollama provider and choose which WordPress tools the assistant may use.
The Free edition focuses on safe workflows:
- Inspect posts, plugins, themes, users, WooCommerce state, and selected security-plugin state.
- Navigate WordPress Admin from natural-language requests.
- Create WordPress drafts without automatically publishing them.
- Stream responses and tool progress in the admin interface.
- Store conversation history and execution metadata in WordPress.
- Disable tools that a site does not need.
- Encrypt provider credentials using WordPress security keys.
The plugin requires a WordPress administrator account with the manage_options capability. It does not expose the assistant to public site visitors.
Source code and build
The human-readable source for the compiled admin interface and the packaging scripts is maintained at https://github.com/williamduong/wp-admin-agent . To rebuild the JavaScript, run npm ci and npm run build; the packaging steps are documented in the repository’s development guide.
External services
The plugin does not contact an AI provider until an administrator selects and configures one. Sending a chat request can transmit the administrator’s prompt, recent conversation context, registered tool schemas, tool results, and relevant WordPress site information to the selected provider so it can answer the request and select tools.
