We only publish a config when the install details come from the project itself — its README, its docs, or a verified owner. We haven’t found those for Elementor MCP Lite, and we’d rather show nothing than a guess you’d paste into your client.

Upgrade to Pro in your MCP client
Open the resource Upgrade to Pro (gmc://lite/pro-features) to see the
capability comparison and the product's current plans. Editing, publishing,
full import/export, bulk editing and restoration are labelled unavailable
in Lite. They are informational previews; no Pro code or executable Pro
tools are bundled. The free tools keep working without an upgrade.
MCP clients decide how resources are displayed, so this is not a guaranteed popup or a graphical settings panel. Ask your assistant to read the resource if its client does not expose a resource browser.
Guide and presentation
- Practical Lite guide (English): prerequisites, setup and a first read-only session.
- Presentation for clients (Italian PDF): a short overview of the three Lite clients and the separate Pro editions.
- Pro features and annual plans.
Prerequisites
Python 3.10 or newer. WordPress with Elementor and the GMC Elementor MCP companion (0.5.0+), plus a WordPress Application Password. The companion is obtained separately from GMC at gmcfuerte@gmail.com; its implementation is not included in this repository. Pro is required for the corresponding Elementor Pro features. Lite's MCP ping checks the companion, not theme editing capability.
Install from GitHub
git clone https://github.com/gmcfuerte/elementor-mcp-lite.git
cd elementor-mcp-lite
python -m venv .venv
Windows:
.venv\Scripts\python.exe -m pip install .
macOS/Linux:
.venv/bin/python -m pip install .
This Lite edition is distributed through this GitHub repository; it has not been published to PyPI. Do not install the separate full Pro package as a substitute for Lite.
Configure
- Copy
sites.example.jsonto a localsites.jsonand keep only the sites you own or are authorized to access. The file is ignored by Git. - Set the credential environment variables named by
username_env,password_env, and the applicable Joomla token/key field. Never put credential values in committed JSON or an MCP chat. - Set
ELEMENTOR_MCP_LITE_SITESto the absolute path of that local JSON file. - Add the server using
mcp.example.json: replace the placeholders with the absolute Python executable and configuration file paths. Ensure the MCP client passes the credential variables to its child process. - Start with
elementor_lite_list_sites, thenelementor_lite_ping_site.
rest_mode: "query" supports WordPress without pretty REST URLs; otherwise
use pretty. Subdirectory installations are supported in the base URL.
Tools
elementor_lite_list_sites: aliases and platforms only.elementor_lite_ping_site: one authenticated GET, sanitized status only.elementor_lite_list_documents: List at most ten Elementor document titles, ids and status; no document export.elementor_lite_summarize_layout: pass the text fromlayout.example.jsonaslayout_json. Returns counts and types; no settings or content.
The server runs locally using stdio. No remote HTTP server, uploads, arbitrary URLs, SSH, license switch or Pro modules are included. Online tools use a fixed GET allowlist, verified TLS, no redirects, at most one request at a time per configured base URL, a two-second interval, and a 1 MiB response limit. HTTP is accepted only for exact loopback hosts. HTTP 403/415 stops subsequent requests to that base URL until restart.
Release status
Initial Lite release: source and package contents inspected and Python compiled. Site integration and runtime tests have not been performed. Do not treat this initial release as a production integration certification.
