    Launch week, day four, and here is what the week taught me rather than what the listing says. Eight plugin releases since Tuesday, all from one question: what does an AI agent do to a live site when nobody is watching? The answers shipped as code, not as a policy page. A read of a settings option no longer hands the agent another plugin's API key. It gets [redacted] and has to ask a person for the full value. The security scan now spots a plugin that is running but removed itself from the plugin list. That is how a hidden plugin took a company's legal pages offline last week; it was found and removed through Respira in about ten minutes, and it is why there is now a quarantine tool that stops a plugin without running any of its code and keeps every file as evidence. And the WordPress MCP Adapter became optional, so a site that already runs it gets one endpoint, not two. The thing I keep arguing with myself about: every destructive tool returns an approval token to the agent and asks it to show a person first. Nothing in MCP makes it wait. So there is an opt-in mode now where the token does nothing until an administrator presses Approve in wp-admin. For a dev tool that feels like friction. For a client site it feels like the only honest default. Where would you draw that line? And if you run WordPress for clients: what is the one thing you would never let an agent do without a human, even with a snapshot behind it? Everything above is in the changelog at respira.press/releases. I read every reply here.

    Hi, I’m Mihai. I build Respira for WordPress alone, from Brașov, Romania. It started from a simple frustration: AI could write the change, but I still had to paste it into WordPress myself, and if it touched a page builder it usually broke the layout. So Respira gives Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and Codex real access to a WordPress site, in the page builder’s own format, across 17 page builders. The part I care about most is safety. Every edit lands on a duplicate, a snapshot is saved first, and nothing goes live until you approve it. It’s free for 7 days with no card. I read every comment here and I’d like to hear what breaks for you.

Respira for WordPress connects the AI tools developers already use (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor, ChatGPT) to live WordPress sites through one MCP connection. It writes in each page builder’s own format, across 17 page builders including Elementor, Divi, Bricks and Gutenberg, so pages stay native and editable instead of turning into raw HTML. Safe by default: every edit lands on a duplicate, a snapshot is saved before every write, and nothing goes live until a person approves it. Any change can be rolled back. 350+ tools, a WooCommerce add-on, a security scan against known vulnerabilities, and open-source agent skills. Built by one person in Brașov, Romania. Free for 7 days, no card.
