Write titles, excerpts and summaries, check posts before you publish, fill in alt text, make and edit images, and chat with an AI Agent in your admin bar. It runs on your own API key from OpenAI, Anthropic or another supported provider, so you pay your provider for usage, not us.
Last month a client asked why their homepage took six seconds to load. We expected a hosting problem. It turned out to be oversized images, unused scripts and three plugins doing the same job.
Here is what we changed, in the order we changed it, and what each step saved.
Classic Monks AIOpenAI · your API keySuggestions only. Nothing changes until you click Use.
Either you carry every answer into WordPress by hand, or you hand an agent the keys and hope.
You ask a chatbot for a title, an excerpt or alt text. Then you copy it out of the chat, paste it into WordPress, and do it again for the next post and the next image.
The tools that can change your site often get full admin access, with no limits and no record of what they did. One bad answer and you're fixing the layout instead of shipping.
The fix is AI that works where the content lives, inside WordPress, under rules you set.
The two most-voted AI requests shipped together, and the AI tab keeps getting updates.

The AI Agent opens as a chat panel from the WordPress admin bar. Ask it to create or edit a post, check your plugins or update a user, and it does the work inside WordPress.

Read only, Content, Site admin or Full. A writing assistant never gets access to plugins or users.
Choose which areas each agent can see at all.
Before anything destructive runs, you see the exact change and a preview. If the content changes after you approve, the agent has to ask again.
Core updates, database search-replace, permanent deletes and creating users need approval even if you've switched approvals off.
Every AI change goes into the AI Activity log. Undo won't overwrite edits made after the AI change.
Your dashboard shows a notice with a link whenever an agent changes something.
Passwords and keys are removed from logs and tool output.
AI connections work only on the MCP endpoint, not the rest of the REST API or XML-RPC. Deactivating the plugin disconnects every connection.
Ready-made guides teach the agent to work safely, find its way around Classic Monks, build Bricks pages, handle snippets, clean up 404s and build block themes. Write your own guides to teach it how your team works.
