Loading a draft is a read-only operation that retrieves data from the WordPress site without side effects. No content is created, modified, deleted, or executed. The blast radius is minimal as it only exposes draft content visibility to the AI agent.

From the tool's definition The tool name is 'load-draft' and description states 'Load a saved draft', which indicates retrieval of existing draft content without modification or deletion.

How to control load-draft

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and AutoWP MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for load-draft:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "load-draft": {}
  }
}

load-draft is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

  1. Create a free account and register AutoWP MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
