Novasira – AI SEO Agent for WordPress

Novasira – AI SEO Agent for WordPress

View on WordPress

Rank better with AI SEO automation. Connect Claude or ChatGPT to your WordPress site and let it do the SEO work for you.

Novasira gives your AI assistant a clear view of your site’s SEO: titles,
descriptions, images, links, schema and sitemaps. Ask it to audit your site. It
finds what is holding your pages back, puts the fixes in order of importance,
and makes the changes when you say go.

Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, GitHub Copilot,
Windsurf, Codex, Gemini CLI and any other MCP client. Setup takes a few
minutes, and Novasira walks you through it.

It sees more than a crawler does, including drafts, private pages and every
image’s alt text, so it catches problems that tools looking only at your public
pages miss. Novasira does not promise rankings or make up traffic numbers. It
finds and fixes the on-site problems that keep good pages from ranking.

What you can ask your AI to do

  • “Audit this site’s SEO and tell me what to fix first.”
  • “Find every image with no alt text and write good ones.”
  • “Which pages have a missing or duplicate title or meta description?”
  • “Which pages are not linked to from anywhere else on the site?”
  • “Check my schema markup and my sitemap for problems.”
  • “Rewrite the title and description for this page, and show me before saving.”

What you get

  • A site health score and a ranked list of what to fix first, from checks
    that run on your own site.
  • Twenty-six SEO areas: full audit, content quality, internal links, schema,
    sitemaps, images and alt text, technical SEO, AI search, local SEO, products
    and more. Each has written guidance and a prompt you can copy.
  • Nine MCP tools your agent can call: scan an area, read the method, read a
    page’s SEO, list images with no alt text, check internal links, read schema,
    and write SEO fields or alt text when you ask it to.
  • A step-by-step Connect screen with ready-made setup for each AI tool.
  • Sign in with WordPress (OAuth 2.1) with per-connection permissions, or an
    application password limited to Novasira’s own endpoint.
  • Works alongside Yoast SEO, Rank Math and SEOPress. It reads what they
    store and does not change their settings.
  • No outbound requests, no telemetry, no account, no API key.

Twenty-six areas

The plugin organises its work into twenty-six SEO areas. Twenty of them are
live: WordPress holds the data, so the area can be scanned against this
site. Six are advisory: the answer lives outside your site, so the area
ships the method and the prompt and says so plainly.

Live areas: full audit, action plan, single page, content quality, content
brief, topic clusters, internal links, programmatic pages, technical, sitemaps,
schema, languages, images, alt text, search experience, AI search, agent
readability, drift, products, local.

Advisory areas: Search Console, backlinks, competitors, keyword data, maps
listing, and the orchestrator page that says which area answers which question.

The advisory split is deliberate. Impressions, rankings, referring domains and
keyword volumes are not stored anywhere in WordPress. Novasira ships no
API key, no crawler and no bundled data service, so for those areas it gives you
the method and the prompt rather than a number it would have had to invent.

Guidance, not a score

Every area carries a written guidance document, which an agent reads through an
MCP tool. Each one answers the same five questions: what the area is about, what
Novasira can actually see from inside WordPress, how to tell a real problem from
a number that merely looks bad, what to do about it cheapest-first, and how you
would know you were wrong.

In the admin, each area has a card naming what it covers, whether it is live or
advisory, and a prompt you can copy and hand to your agent.

That last question is the point. A finding without a falsifiability check is a
guess with a chart next to it.

The agent side

Novasira registers its tools as WordPress abilities and serves them over a
single MCP endpoint on your own site, using the bundled wordpress/mcp-adapter
(GPL-2.0-or-later). You connect your agent to your site; nothing is brokered
through a third party.

Only an authenticated user with the required capability can reach the endpoint.
Novasira Connect walks through it in a few steps: switch the MCP server
on, pick your AI tool (Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, GitHub
Copilot, Windsurf, Codex, Gemini CLI and more), choose how it signs in, and copy
the ready-made connection for that tool. An agent can sign in in either of two
ways:

  • Sign in with WordPress (OAuth 2.1). Clients that support MCP
    authorization, such as Claude, discover the sign-in automatically. An
    administrator approves each connection on a consent screen, choosing which
    permissions it gets (read, write, manage), and can revoke it at any time from
    Novasira Connect. This uses dynamic client registration, so any client
    can ask to connect; nothing is granted until an administrator approves.
  • Application password. Works with every client and every host. The Connect
    screen can create one for you through WordPress core’s own application
    password API, named “Novasira…”, and puts it straight into a prompt and a
    config snippet for the tool you picked. The password is shown once, in that
    page view only; Novasira never stores it (WordPress keeps only its hash, as it
    does for any application password). A key created here is accepted only on
    Novasira’s MCP endpoint: WordPress refuses it on every other REST route and
    on XML-RPC. Keys created here are listed, and can be revoked, under
    Manage connections and keys.

Either way, the agent reaches Novasira’s own tools and nothing else. They read
your content and SEO data, and write only SEO fields: titles, meta
descriptions, canonical URLs, slugs and image alt text. The endpoint does not
carry the MCP adapter’s generic tools for running other plugins’ abilities, and
no tool installs or changes plugins, themes, users or site settings. There is no
Novasira server: the agent you choose connects straight to your site.

For OAuth connections Novasira stores, on your own site: the registered
client’s name and redirect addresses, and for each approved connection a hash
of its access and refresh tokens (never the tokens themselves), the permissions
granted, timestamps, and the IP address it last connected from. Access tokens
last 30 days and renew while in use; an unused connection expires after 180
days. A token is accepted only on Novasira’s own MCP endpoint, never on the
rest of the REST API.

Everything the agent can read, that user could already read in wp-admin, and a
tool that edits a post refuses anybody who could not edit that post by hand.

What it reads from other SEO plugins

Where Yoast SEO, Rank Math or SEOPress is installed, Novasira reads the title
and description each one stores so that its report reflects what your site
actually outputs. It does not replace them, convert between them, or change
their settings.

External services

Novasira makes no outbound requests at all. It contacts no API, no licence
server, no update service, no analytics endpoint and no CDN, and sends nothing
anywhere. There is no account to create and no key to enter. The only personal
data it stores is described under “The agent side” above (the last IP address of
each OAuth connection), kept on your own site; suggested privacy-policy text
is added under Settings Privacy.

The Connect screen has two buttons that open a third-party website in a new
tab, only when you click them. Nothing is sent automatically:

  • Add the connector to Claude.ai opens claude.ai’s connector settings, with this site’s MCP
    endpoint address and site name in the link so you do not have to type them.

The plugin bundles wordpress/mcp-adapter (GPL-2.0-or-later, by the WordPress
AI Team) and wordpress/php-mcp-schema. The adapter’s role is to serve an
MCP endpoint on this site — an inbound route under this site’s own REST API. It
does not call out either. Reaching that endpoint requires authenticating as a
user with the capability described above; an unauthenticated request gets
nothing.

The application-password connection snippets tell your AI client to start
@automattic/mcp-wordpress-remote with npx. That is an open-source npm
package (MIT licence, by Automattic) which your own computer downloads from
the npm registry when the client starts it; Novasira does not download, bundle
or run it. It connects only to this site’s MCP endpoint, using the credentials
in the snippet. Source: https://github.com/Automattic/mcp-wordpress-remote ·

If you connect an AI agent to that endpoint, the agent is software you chose and
run, and whatever it reads from your site travels wherever you have configured
it to travel. That is a property of your agent and your MCP client, not of this
plugin. Novasira itself never initiates a connection.
