WHAT IT DOES

What create_draft does on WordPress MCP Server

AI agents use create_draft to create or update resources in WordPress MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your WordPress MCP Server environment.

RISK

Why create_draft is rated Medium

This tool creates new content (draft posts) in a WordPress system, which is reversible through editing or deletion. This fits the Write category (creates or modifies data reversibly). Severity is medium because unauthorized content creation could spam a blog or create misleading posts, but drafts are not published and remain under author control.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'create_draft' indicates creation of content within a WordPress system. The server description mentions 'automated content management and publishing via the WordPress REST API'.
