# MCP Tools Reference
What your AI tool can actually do once it's connected to your site over MCP, why it matters, how it works, and the exact capability behind every request.
Once an AI tool like Claude or Cursor is connected to your site (see [Set up UiChemy MCP](/ai-to-wordpress/set-up)), you don't run commands, you describe what you want in plain English: "build a pricing page with three tiers," "change my site's accent color to navy," "show me my last 10 form submissions." Your AI tool matches that request to one of the real capabilities below and calls it directly.
This connection is included in **Free**, no Pro required. See [Free vs Pro](/uichemy-composer/getting-started/free-vs-pro).
You don't need to memorize any of this to use MCP, your AI tool discovers what's available on its own. This page is for a different, useful question: **exactly what is my AI tool able to touch on my site?** Everything below is scoped to building and configuring with UiChemy, pages, templates, styles, forms, media, and site setup. It can't install other plugins, change unrelated WordPress settings, or reach anything outside this list.
### Building and Editing Pages

| Create a Single post/page template | `create_single_post_widget` |
| Add code that runs on one page, or every page | `set_page_site_code` (see [Standard, Page, Site, and Globals](/uichemy-composer/uichemy-widget/code-tab#standard-page-site-and-globals)) |

### Design and Branding

| Change just part of it | `edit_globals_css` |
| Read or update variables, classes, and buttons (newer interface) | `design-system` ability |
### Dynamic Content and Forms
**Example prompt:** "Turn this into a loop showing my 6 latest blog posts, 3 per row."
| What you ask for | The real capability behind it |
|---|---|
| See what live data is available to bind | `dynamic` ability |
| Build a loop, a repeating grid of posts, products, or other items | `dynamic` ability |
| Bind a field to live data instead of static text | `dynamic` ability |
| Set up what a form does on submit (save, email, webhook) | `forms` ability |
| Read a form's submissions | `forms` ability |
### Media, SEO, and Quality Checks
**Example prompt:** "Check this page for any broken links or missing alt text."
| What you ask for | The real capability behind it |
|---|---|

| Get a structured overview of the whole site | `describe-site` ability |
| Get a snapshot or screenshot of how the site currently looks | `capture-site` / `screenshot-site` abilities |
### Use Cases
- **Building a whole site from a single conversation**, describe pages, templates, and branding to your AI tool instead of clicking through the admin for each one.
- **Making quick global changes**, ask your AI tool to update a brand color, a nav menu, or a page's SEO metadata without opening the relevant screen yourself.
- **Auditing a site you didn't build**, ask for a structured overview, a quality check, or a screenshot before making changes to unfamiliar content.
### A Technical Note
The "real capability" column above mixes two overlapping systems on purpose, an older set of individually-named tools (the ones written as `snake_case`, like `get_globals_css`) and a newer WordPress-native Abilities API grouped into categories (the ones just called "ability," like `forms` or `design-system`). Both expose the same underlying features, and every AI client automatically uses whichever one it supports, you never have to choose between them.
