SiteBay

SiteBay is an MCP server that connects Claude and other Model Context Protocol clients directly to the SiteBay WordPress hosting platform. Built for web developers, agencies, and WordPress site administrators, the server enables complete control over WordPress hosting environments using natural language commands. Users can provision new sites using pre-configured templates, retrieve detailed configuration statuses, inspect site plans, and update domain or Cloudflare dev mode configurations without logging into the SiteBay dashboard. Beyond basic provisioning, it provides remote operational controls, enabling the execution of shell commands and direct WP-CLI actions on hosted servers. Administrators can inspect disk utilization, perform database search-and-replace tasks, manage plugins, and modify custom code files located in the wp-content directory. The server operates locally via stdio using Python or uvx, or it can be hosted independently over HTTP, communicating securely with SiteBay infrastructure using API tokens.
