Meta Trac

🚀 WordPress Trac MCP Server

Search and explore all WordPress.org Trac issue trackers directly from Claude, ChatGPT, or any AI assistant that supports MCP (Model Context Protocol).

No coding is required to use this. Just add the server URLs to your AI assistant config. This project is based on trac-mcp by James LePage.

🚀 Quick Start (No Coding Required)

For Claude Desktop Users

1. Open your Claude Desktop config file:

   • Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
   • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

2. Add the WordPress Trac servers to the mcpServers section:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wordpress-core-trac": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://mcp-server-wporg-core-trac.meta-trac-wordpress.workers.dev/mcp"]
    },
    "wordpress-meta-trac": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://mcp-server-wporg-meta-trac.meta-trac-wordpress.workers.dev/mcp"]
    },
    "wordpress-plugins-trac": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://mcp-server-wporg-plugins-trac.meta-trac-wordpress.workers.dev/mcp"]
    },
    "wordpress-themes-trac": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://mcp-server-wporg-themes-trac.meta-trac-wordpress.workers.dev/mcp"]
    },
    "wordpress-bbpress-trac": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://mcp-server-wporg-bbpress-trac.meta-trac-wordpress.workers.dev/mcp"]
    },
    "wordpress-buddypress-trac": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://mcp-server-wporg-buddypress-trac.meta-trac-wordpress.workers.dev/mcp"]
    },
    "wordpress-glotpress-trac": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://mcp-server-wporg-glotpress-trac.meta-trac-wordpress.workers.dev/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

3. Restart Claude Desktop

4. You can now ask Claude things like:

   • "Search Core Trac for accessibility issues"
   • "Find recent plugin directory tickets"
   • "Show me ticket #12345 from Meta Trac"
   • "What's the latest activity on BuddyPress Trac?"
