Elementor ships its own MCP server inside the plugin, so most sites should start there. It needs Elementor 4.3.0 or later and WordPress 6.8 or later, and it lets Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex or Cursor read page structure and build or edit pages. The assistant acts with the permissions of the WordPress user it connects as, and you can revoke it from that user's Application Passwords or turn MCP off for the whole site. The community options cover other jobs: running the whole WordPress site, managing many client sites, or reading without writing.
Good for
- Site owners who build or edit Elementor pages from Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex or Cursor
- Agencies that run many client sites on Elementor
- Developers who want an assistant to manage plugins, users and content, not only pages
- Anyone who wants a read-only look at a site before allowing edits
Which Elementor MCP server to use
Use the built-in Elementor MCP unless you need more than page building. Choose EMCP Tools to run the whole WordPress site, elementor-mcp-agent for many client sites, or Elementor MCP Lite to read without writing.

Questions
Is there an official Elementor MCP server?
Yes. Elementor includes one in the plugin. In WordPress go to Elementor > Elementor MCP, click Enable MCP access, pick your AI client and paste the generated prompt into it.
What do I need for Elementor's built-in MCP?
WordPress 6.8 or later and Elementor Core and Elementor Pro version 4.3.0 or later. You also need a WordPress user whose role is allowed to do what you ask the assistant to do.
Does it work in Claude and Cursor?
Yes. Elementor's setup screen has tabs for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and Other, and it generates a prompt for the one you pick.
How does it sign in?
Clicking Generate Prompt creates a WordPress application password for the site, and the prompt carries it to your client. Revoke it under Users > Profile > Application Passwords, or use the Turn off button at the bottom of the Elementor MCP screen to block every connected client.
Can the assistant delete or break my pages?
It can do what the WordPress user it connects as can do. With EMCP Tools, anything that writes or deletes ships disabled until you enable it, and destructive operations need an explicit confirm. elementor-mcp-agent backs up before each edit and asks for a second call to confirm destructive actions.
Which Elementor MCP is read-only?
Elementor MCP Lite has four read-only tools and cannot create or edit anything, but it needs a companion WordPress plugin that its author supplies separately. With the built-in server, connect as a WordPress user whose role cannot publish, because the assistant gets that user's permissions and no more.
EMCP Tools or the built-in Elementor MCP?
The built-in server is made by Elementor and works with Elementor only. EMCP Tools is a WordPress plugin with 244 free tools (578 with its Pro plan) that also covers other page builders, media, users, plugins and the database. It needs WordPress 6.9 or later and PHP 8.1 or later.
Which one fits an agency with many client sites?
elementor-mcp-agent. You list your sites in one setting, it backs up before every edit and rolls back if an edit produces invalid Elementor data, and it has 34 tools. Adding SSH details unlocks 8 more.
