Not a chatbot. An autonomous agent.
ClawPress doesn’t wait for instructions line-by-line. Describe what you need, and the agent plans, executes, and verifies — all within your WordPress admin.
Floating Chat Panel
An agentic AI chat panel accessible on every WP admin screen. Not buried in a settings page — it’s right there, ready to act on whatever you’re looking at.

✓ Draft created. Added featured image and SEO meta. Ready for review.
Persistent Memory
Your agent remembers. Every conversation, every preference, every site pattern — carried across sessions so it gets smarter the more you use it.
session_047 Site prefers Astra theme patterns
session_046 Always backup before bulk updates
session_045 ACF fields: use camelCase naming
session_041 Deploy schedule: Wednesdays 2am
Agent Personas
Assign dedicated WordPress users with custom roles. Your SiteAdmin persona handles maintenance. Your ContentWriter handles publishing. Each stays in its lane.
Offline Mode
No AI service connected? ClawPress still works. Queue tasks, manage your instruction files, and access memory — all locally. It catches up when reconnected.
WP Abilities — A Plugin System for Your Agent
Extend what your agent can do with Abilities — modular skill packs that give ClawPress new powers. File operations, memory management, WooCommerce actions, and more.

file_read
file_write
file_delete

Action Logging
Every action the agent takes is logged with full context. Audit trail included — nothing happens in the dark. Inspect, replay, or rollback.
Setup Wizard
Get running in under 60 seconds. The in-chat onboarding wizard walks you through API keys, persona setup, and your first agent task.
How It Works
Three commands. Infinite possibilities.
01
Install & Connect
Drop ClawPress into your WordPress install. Connect your preferred AI provider — OpenAI, Anthropic, or any compatible LLM. The setup wizard handles the rest.
$ wp plugin install clawpress
$ wp clawpress setup

02
Define Your Agent
Give your agent a persona, assign it a WP user, and set its boundaries. Instruction files let you define exactly how your agent should behave — version-controlled and repeatable.
❯ persona: “SiteAdmin”
❯ abilities: [file_*, memory_*, wp_*]
❯ memory: “persistent”
03
Let It Work
Describe what you need in plain language. ClawPress breaks it into tasks, executes them autonomously, and reports back. Watch the action log in real-time.
❯ “Audit all pages for broken images”
→ Scanning 142 pages…
→ Found 3 broken refs. Fixing…
✓ All resolved. — 8.1s
