WP-CLI, without the terminal.
Your assistant can run 125+ familiar WP-CLI commands on your site, or on up to 50 sites at once: updates, users, settings, menus, cache and the database. No SSH, no server login, no WP-CLI install. It’s on every plan, including Free.

What it covers
UpdatesPlugins, themes and WordPress itself: check, install, update, switch on or off. From WordPress.org.
wp plugin updateUsers and rolesAdd a colleague, change a role, remove an old account and hand its posts on.
wp user createSettingsSite title, tagline, reading settings, theme options and other stored settings.
wp option updateCache and cronClear WordPress’s cache, your cache plugin and Elementor’s CSS. See and run scheduled tasks.
wp cache flushMenusAdd pages to a menu, rename items, put a menu in a theme location.
wp menu item add-postContent and commentsPosts, custom fields, categories and tags. Approve, spam or trash comments.
wp comment approveDatabaseLook things up and add up totals, in WordPress’s tables and your plugins’. Replace an old address everywhere, with a dry run first.
wp db queryMany sites at onceRun the same commands on up to 50 of your sites as one background job. Check progress, or stop what hasn’t started.
start_fleet_jobAsk in words, or name the command
You don’t need to know WP-CLI. “Make Sam an editor” works as well as wp user set-role sam editor. If you do know it, name the command and your assistant runs exactly that. Output comes back as JSON, and wp help lists everything.
Why it’s safe to hand over
- Nothing runs in a shell. AI Puffer reads each command, checks it and carries it out through WordPress’s own functions. No chaining, no
wp eval. - Your safety level applies. At Standard, every command that changes something waits for your yes. At Trusted, it just runs.
- The WordPress user you chose is the ceiling. If that user can’t install plugins, neither can your assistant.
- Passwords and keys stay hidden, and so do AI Puffer’s own connection settings.
- Installs and updates come from WordPress.org only.
- Every command is in your activity log, with who asked and what happened.
