MemberPress

aid: memberpress
name: MemberPress
description: MemberPress is a WordPress membership, course and subscription-commerce plugin built by Caseproof. It turns a
  self-hosted WordPress site into a paid membership business — content protection through Smart Rules, memberships and groups
  as products, coupons, transactions, recurring subscriptions across Stripe, PayPal, Square and Authorize.net, courses and
  quizzes, ClubSuite communities and CoachKit coaching. Its developer surface is the Developer Tools add-on, which exposes
  a REST API under the WordPress namespace /wp-json/mp/v1 on the site owner's own installation, plus a webhook subscription
  surface for fourteen membership and billing events. The AI Foundation add-on ships a WordPress MCP server that lets Claude,
  Cursor and VS Code read and act on membership data directly.

  name: MemberPress Developer Tools REST API
  description: REST API exposed by the MemberPress Developer Tools add-on on the site owner's own WordPress installation,
    under the WordPress REST namespace mp/v1. Covers members, memberships, transactions, subscriptions, groups, rules, coupons,
    reminders and the event log, plus webhook subscribe/unsubscribe. Authenticated with a Developer Tools API key sent in
    the MEMBERPRESS-API-KEY header (the documentation repository and Postman collection send the same key in the Authorization
    header), or as a logged-in WordPress user holding the remove_users capability. MemberPress is self-hosted, so the base
    URL is always the customer's own site.

    openapi_published_by_provider: false
    note: MemberPress publishes no OpenAPI. The openapi/ file is an API Evangelist derivation of MemberPress's own README,
      Postman collection and Developer Tools documentation; the Postman collection under postman/ is the provider-published
      artifact, saved verbatim.
    endpoints_checked: MemberPress is self-hosted — there is no vendor-operated host to call anonymously, so no live endpoint
      probe is possible without a customer installation.

  name: MemberPress AI Foundation MCP Server
  description: WordPress MCP server shipped by the MemberPress AI Foundation add-on. It exposes membership, subscription,
    transaction, coupon, access-rule and reporting tools — MemberPress states 41 tools on a standard install, with more added
    by the Courses, Corporate Accounts, Downloads and Gifting add-ons — to MCP clients such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code,
    Cursor, VS Code and Windsurf. The server runs inside the customer's own WordPress site, so there is no vendor-hosted remote
    MCP endpoint to introspect anonymously.

    note: Tool count and three named tools (get_course_completion_rates, get_member_billing_history, get_churn_predictions)
      are quoted from MemberPress's own announcement. The full tools/list manifest requires an authenticated customer installation;
      it was not introspected.
