FeludaWP: Connect Your WordPress Site to Any AI or Automation

FeludaWP gives your AI assistant and Feluda Flows direct access to your WordPress website. Read content, manage drafts, explore categories, search posts, and fetch pages from RSS feeds — all without leaving your Feluda application. Whether you are building a content pipeline, automating publishing, or letting an LLM research your own site, FeludaWP is the bridge between your WordPress and your AI.

What can I do with FeludaWP enabled?

Once connected to your WordPress site, your AI can read, search and manage your content automatically. It can verify who it is logged in as, create and manage local drafts, look up your WordPress categories and available media images, find specific posts by keyword, and even fetch and read external web pages or RSS feeds to supplement its research. All of this happens from within your Feluda application — no plugins, no webhooks, no external services required.

What tools does FeludaWP include?

FeludaWP comes with eight ready-to-use tools. Every single tool supports calling it with help to instantly receive a plain-language summary of what it does, what it needs, and example uses — so your AI always knows how to call it correctly.

ToolWhat it does
Who am IVerifies the connection to your WordPress site and confirms which user account is being used. A great first step to confirm everything is set up correctly.
Drafts managerCreates, lists, reads and publishes local drafts stored on your device. Your AI builds a post locally — creating a new draft, reading it back, and pushing it to WordPress when it is ready to publish or update.
Sections managerWrites, edits and reads named HTML sections inside a local draft. Your AI builds post content block by block — adding an introduction, a body section, a conclusion — and can edit, reorder or replace individual sections without touching the rest of the draft.
Meta managerReads and updates post metadata, giving your AI the ability to review and set SEO fields, tags, categories, featured image, author, excerpt, and post type on a local draft.
Taxonomy managerFetches categories and available images from your WordPress site. Your AI uses this to look up the correct category ID and pick a suitable featured image from your media library before setting them on a local draft.
Site searchSearches your WordPress content by keyword so your AI can find relevant existing posts before writing something new — avoiding duplicates and building on what is already there.
Web readerFetches and reads any web page so your AI can research external sources and bring that information back into your Feluda workflow. Two-step: fetch stores the page locally, read retrieves the cleaned content.
RSS readerReads RSS and Atom feeds from any website. Fetches and caches the feed locally, then lets your AI read, list, and summarize entries. Perfect for monitoring competitor blogs, news sources, or research input inside a Feluda Flow.

Requirements and compatibility

Before you get started, here is what you need. FeludaWP works with self-hosted WordPress sites running WordPress 5.6 or newer. The WordPress REST API is enabled by default on all modern installations, so no extra configuration is needed on most sites.

  • Self-hosted WordPress (wordpress.org): Fully supported. This is the most common setup and works out of the box.
  • WordPress.com (hosted plans): Application Passwords are available on Business plans and above. Free, Personal, and Premium plans do not support Application Passwords and cannot be used with FeludaWP.
  • Managed WordPress hosting (WP Engine, Kinsta, Pressable, etc.): These hosts support Application Passwords as long as you are on a plan that gives you access to the WordPress admin and user profile pages. Check with your host if you are unsure.
  • WordPress version: Version 5.6 or newer is required. Application Passwords were introduced in WordPress 5.6. Most sites are well above this version today.
  • SSL (HTTPS): Your WordPress site should be served over HTTPS. Sending credentials over unencrypted HTTP is not recommended and many hosts enforce HTTPS by default.
  • Feluda Desktop App: FeludaWP runs inside the Feluda Desktop App. You need a Feluda account and the desktop app installed to use this gene.
  • What FeludaWP does not do

    Knowing what is out of scope helps you set the right expectations and plan your workflow correctly.

  • Does not upload media files: FeludaWP cannot upload images or other media to your WordPress media library. If a post needs a featured image, the image must already exist on your site. The gene can look up existing images by ID.
  • Does not access wp-admin: FeludaWP uses the WordPress REST API only. It cannot access your WordPress dashboard, install or activate plugins, change theme settings, or perform any action that requires the wp-admin interface.
  • Does not modify site settings: General site settings, permalink structures, and WordPress configuration are outside the scope of this gene.
  • Does not manage users: FeludaWP cannot create, edit, or delete WordPress user accounts.
  • Does not support WooCommerce or custom post types out of the box: The gene works with standard WordPress posts and pages. Specialized post types from plugins such as WooCommerce products are not included.
  • How to set up FeludaWP — step by step

    Getting started takes only a few minutes. You will need your WordPress site address and a secure application password from your WordPress account.

    Step 1 — Get your WordPress Application Password

  • Log into your WordPress site and go to your user profile (top-right corner, then Edit Profile).
  • Scroll down to the Application Passwords section.
  • Enter a name for the password (for example: Feluda) and click Add New Application Password.
  • WordPress will show you a password once — copy it immediately. You will not be able to see it again.
  • Step 2 — Save your credentials in the Feluda Secrets page

    Open the Feluda Desktop App and navigate to the Feluda Secrets page. Add the following two secrets:

  • WP_USERNAME — your WordPress username (the one you log in with).
  • WP_PASSWORD — the Application Password you just copied from your WordPress profile. This is not your regular login password. It is the special application password WordPress generated for you in Step 1.
  • Step 3 — Set your site address in the Feluda Settings page

    Open the Feluda Settings page for FeludaWP and fill in the following:

    SettingRequiredDescription
    WP_BaseUrlRequiredThe full address of your WordPress site, for example https://yoursite.com. Do not add a trailing slash.
    WP_AllowDraftOptionalAllow the AI to create and save local drafts. On by default.
    WP_AllowPublishOptionalAllow the AI to publish posts to your live site. Off by default — must be explicitly enabled.
    WP_AllowPrivateOptionalAllow posting privately. Off by default.
    WP_AllowFutureOptionalAllow scheduling posts for a future date. Off by default.
    WP_EnablePublishValidationOptionalCheck that post content is not empty before publishing. On by default.
    wordpressSEOcheckOptionalValidate that title, excerpt, category, tags, and featured image are all set before publishing. On by default.
    WP_DefaultPerPageOptionalNumber of posts returned per search or listing request. Defaults to 10.

    Step 4 — Verify your connection

    Once your secrets and settings are saved, ask your AI to call the Who am I tool. It will confirm that the connection is working and show you which WordPress user account is active.

    Your credentials stay on your device

    Security matters, especially when connecting an AI tool to your website. Here is exactly how FeludaWP handles your credentials.

  • Stored locally, not in the cloud: Your WP_USERNAME and WP_PASSWORD are stored in the Feluda Secrets page on your own device. They are never uploaded to any server or shared with any external service.
  • Only sent to your own site: The only place your credentials are ever sent is the WordPress site address you set in WP_BaseUrl. FeludaWP makes requests directly from your device to your site — there is no middleman.
  • Application Passwords are revokable: The Application Password you create in your WordPress profile can be revoked at any time from your WordPress user profile page. If you ever want to disconnect FeludaWP, simply delete the application password in WordPress and remove the secrets from the Feluda Secrets page.
  • No plugin, no server access: Because FeludaWP uses the WordPress REST API, it never needs file system access or server credentials. Your hosting account, FTP details, and server are never involved.
  • Publishing permissions — you stay in control

    FeludaWP is designed to give you full control over what your AI is and is not allowed to publish. All publishing permissions are set from the Feluda Settings page and can be changed at any time.

  • Drafts allowed by default: Your AI can create and save drafts from the moment you connect. No extra configuration needed.
  • Publishing is off by default: Direct publishing to your live site is disabled until you explicitly turn it on. This prevents anything going live accidentally while you are still setting things up or experimenting.
  • Private and scheduled posts: Posting privately or scheduling posts for a future date are also off by default and must be enabled in settings when you are ready to use them.
  • SEO check before publishing: An optional SEO validation setting can be enabled. When active, the gene checks that a post has a title, excerpt, category, tags, and featured image before it is allowed to publish — helping your AI maintain content quality standards automatically.
  • Pre-publish content check: A separate validation setting checks that post content is not empty before publishing. Both checks can be turned on or off independently from the Feluda Settings page.
  • Best practices and recommendations

    A few simple habits will make your experience with FeludaWP noticeably smoother and help your AI produce better results from the start.

  • Upload your images to WordPress before you start: FeludaWP does not upload images, so any image your AI needs must already exist in your WordPress media library. Before running a content session, take a moment to upload the images you plan to use — brand visuals, product shots, stock photos, or any other assets — so they are ready and waiting in your media library.
  • Pre-load images for featured image selection: When the SEO check is enabled, a post must have a featured image set before it can be published. Your AI assigns the featured image by its media library ID. The more relevant images you have uploaded in advance, the better selection your AI has to choose from when completing a post ready for publishing.
  • Pre-load images for use inside post content: The same applies to images embedded inside the body of a post. If your content typically includes inline images — diagrams, screenshots, or illustrations — upload a curated set to your media library ahead of time so your AI can reference them by ID when composing content.
  • Use descriptive file names and alt text when uploading: WordPress stores the file name and alt text alongside each media item. When your AI searches or lists media, descriptive names make it much easier to identify the right image for a post — especially when working with a large media library.
  • Verify your connection before a long session: Before starting a content session, ask your AI to call the Who am I tool. It confirms the connection is active and identifies the correct user account — a quick check that saves interruption mid-session.
  • Start with drafts enabled only: Leave publishing disabled in settings until you are fully comfortable with how your AI handles content on your site. Work in draft mode first, review the results, and only enable publishing once you are satisfied with the output quality.
  • Handy commands to get started

    These are ready-to-use prompts you can type directly to your AI in the FeludaWP SingleAgent flow. Copy them as-is or adapt the wording to suit your style — your AI will know exactly what to do.

    Built-in help for every tool

    Every tool in FeludaWP has a built-in help response. When your AI or a Feluda Flow calls any tool with the help option, it immediately receives a clear description of that tool's purpose, the inputs it accepts, and example calls. This means your AI never has to guess — it can always ask a tool to explain itself before using it.

    How FeludaWP works inside Feluda Flows

    FeludaWP becomes especially powerful when used inside Feluda Flows. You can build automated content pipelines that run without any manual intervention:

  • Research and write: A flow can search your existing posts to avoid duplication, fetch inspiration from an RSS feed, and then hand the findings to your AI to draft a new post — all in one continuous step.
  • Draft review loops: Let a flow list all local drafts, send each one to an AI for a quality or SEO check, and write notes or updated sections back to the draft automatically.
  • Publishing workflows: Build a multi-step flow that fetches categories and available images from WordPress, creates a local draft, writes content section by section, sets all metadata, runs an SEO check, and publishes — reducing the entire publishing process to a single trigger.
  • Content monitoring: Set up a flow that reads your competitors' or partners' RSS feeds regularly and summarizes new articles for your team or directly into a draft post.
  • FeludaWP keeps your AI grounded in your actual WordPress content, turning your existing site into a knowledge base and publishing target for all your Feluda-powered automation.

    Real-world stories

    Here is how different users put FeludaWP to work every day.

  • The solo blogger: A writer running a personal finance blog uses FeludaWP to plan and draft a full week of posts in a single afternoon session. They tell their AI the topics for the week, and the AI searches the existing blog for related posts to avoid repeating covered ground, reads a few RSS feeds for fresh angles, and drafts each post with the right category and tags already filled in. The writer reviews the drafts and publishes with one click — saving several hours of research and formatting every week.
  • The small agency: A digital marketing agency manages WordPress sites for several clients. They have a separate FeludaWP instance configured for each client site. When a client requests a new article, an account manager runs the FeludaWP flow, describes the brief, and the AI produces a draft complete with metadata, excerpt, and suggested tags. Drafts go through human review before publishing — the AI does the groundwork, the human makes the final call.
  • The content operations team: A media company runs a scheduled Feluda Flow every morning that reads ten RSS feeds from competitor publications, summarizes the most relevant new articles, and drops the summaries into a shared draft post for the editorial team to review. What used to be a manual 45-minute briefing process now takes seconds and is waiting in the team's drafts folder before anyone has opened their laptop.
  • The multilingual publisher: A travel blog publishes in three languages. The site owner configured three separate persona prompts — one per language — each set to the correct working language. They switch between prompts depending on which language version they are working on that day, and the AI automatically produces all content, metadata, and excerpts in the target language.
  • Ready-made flow: FeludaWP SingleAgent

    FeludaWP comes with a ready-to-use Feluda Flow called FeludaWP SingleAgent. When you install the gene, this flow is immediately available in Feluda Studio — no setup from scratch needed. Open it, load your persona prompt, and you are ready to start working with your WordPress site in minutes.

    The flow is built around a single, capable AI agent that has all eight FeludaWP tools already connected and available. It receives your input, processes it using your WordPress site, and delivers a response — all in one clean, contained sequence.

  • Open in Feluda Studio: The flow opens directly in the visual flow editor. You can see every block, every connection, and exactly how information moves through the flow.
  • Fully customizable: The FeludaWP SingleAgent flow is a starting point, not a locked template. You can add more steps, split the flow into multiple agents, add conditional logic, or chain it with other genes — all from within Feluda Studio without writing a single line of code.
  • All tools pre-connected: The agent block inside the flow already has all eight FeludaWP tools pinned and available. There is nothing to configure on the tool side before you start using it.
  • Save your own versions: Once you have customized the flow or loaded a persona prompt you like, save it as your own named flow. You can maintain multiple versions — for example, one for drafting and one for publishing reviews.
  • The FeludaWP SingleAgent flow is the fastest path from installing the gene to having a working WordPress AI assistant inside your Feluda application.

    Included prompt: WordPress Persona Prompt

    FeludaWP ships with a built-in prompt called the WordPress Persona Prompt. This prompt is designed to be loaded into the system message of the FeludaWP SingleAgent flow, turning your AI into a focused, professional WordPress operator for your specific site and company.

    Instead of writing a system prompt from scratch, you simply fill in a few details about yourself and your site, and the prompt is generated for you automatically. It gives your AI a clear identity, a defined writing style, publishing rules, and a step-by-step operating process tailored to your preferences.

    The prompt asks for the following information — all of which you fill in once and can update any time:

  • Agent name: The name you want to give your WordPress AI assistant.
  • Agent role: A short description of what this agent is responsible for — for example, content writer, editor, or publishing manager.
  • Company or website: The name and address of the WordPress site this agent works with.
  • Language: The language all content and responses should be produced in. Defaults to English.
  • Default publishing mode: Whether new posts should default to draft, publish, scheduled, or private. Defaults to draft for safety.
  • Publisher ID (optional): If you want to lock a specific author account for all published posts, you can provide that here. If left empty, the agent will look up the active user automatically.
  • Once generated, the prompt gives your AI a complete operating guide: how to search your site before writing, how to manage sections and metadata, what must be in place before anything is published, and which tool to use for each action. You can copy it directly into the system message of the FeludaWP SingleAgent flow in Feluda Studio, and begin working immediately.

    Load the prompt once, save your flow, and your personalized WordPress AI operator is ready — precisely configured for your site, your language, and your publishing standards.

    Not seeing FeludaWP in your Feluda Desktop App?

    If you have just installed or updated FeludaWP and it does not appear in your Feluda Desktop App yet, follow these two steps to bring everything up to date.

  • Step 1 — Synchronize: Open the Feluda Desktop App and click the Synchronize button. This tells the app to check for new and updated genes. Synchronizing usually takes just a few seconds and will make newly installed genes available immediately.
  • Step 2 — Restart the app if needed: If FeludaWP still does not appear after synchronizing, close and reopen the Feluda Desktop App. A full restart reloads all genes from scratch and resolves any cases where the app did not pick up the change automatically.
  • These two steps solve the vast majority of cases where a gene does not show up straight away after installation or an update.

    Frequently asked questions

  • Does FeludaWP work with WordPress.com? It depends on your plan. WordPress.com Business plans and above support Application Passwords and work with FeludaWP. Free, Personal, and Premium plans do not support Application Passwords and cannot be used.
  • Do I need any developer skills to set this up? No. The setup requires nothing more than logging into your WordPress site and filling in your site address in the Feluda Settings page. Everything is done through the Feluda Desktop App interface.
  • What happens if I change my WordPress password? Your regular WordPress login password does not affect FeludaWP. The gene uses an Application Password, which is separate from your login password. If you revoke the Application Password in your WordPress profile and create a new one, simply update WP_PASSWORD in the Feluda Secrets page with the new value.
  • Can I connect more than one WordPress site? Each Feluda gene instance connects to one site at a time, set via WP_BaseUrl.
  • Will my AI ever publish something without my approval? Only if you explicitly enable publishing in settings. By default, the AI can only create drafts. To allow live publishing, you must turn on WP_AllowPublish in the Feluda Settings page.
  • Is the WordPress REST API enabled on my site? On all standard WordPress installations running version 5.6 or newer the REST API is enabled by default. If you are using a security plugin that disables the REST API, you will need to allow access for authenticated users in that plugin's settings.
  • Can FeludaWP read my private or password-protected posts? Yes, when authenticated with an account that has the appropriate permissions. The gene uses the WordPress Application Password you provided, so it has the same access level as that user account.
  • Why choose FeludaWP

  • No plugins required: FeludaWP connects directly to the WordPress REST API that every modern WordPress site already includes. Nothing to install on your server.
  • Safe by default: Publishing is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled in settings — so your AI can read and draft freely without accidentally publishing something unfinished.
  • SEO-aware: Built-in SEO validation can be enabled so the gene checks your content meets basic SEO requirements before anything goes live.
  • Instant discoverability: Every tool answers a help request, making FeludaWP easy to explore and integrate, even without reading any documentation.
  • Add FeludaWP to your Feluda application today and give your AI a direct line to your WordPress site. Set your credentials in the Feluda Secrets page, your site address in the Feluda Settings page, and your AI is ready to read, research, draft and publish — all from one place.
