Four steps from two active plugins to a governed connection.
Both plugins need to be active on the same WordPress site. Archivarix External Images Importer registers its own abilities; this plugin discovers and governs them.
In Agent Abilities for MCP, open the Bridge tab (labeled "Other plugins" in the admin). Abilities from every registered plugin appear there, grouped by the plugin that registered them.
Every ability from Archivarix External Images Importer starts off. Turn on only the ones you want an agent to reach, or enable the whole set in one click.
Approve the connection as a WordPress account scoped to what you actually want the agent to do. Each call still re-checks that account’s capability before it runs.
Read more in how bridging works or the full documentation.
Yes. It registers six abilities in the core Abilities API, each with an explicit readonly/destructive annotation and meta.mcp.public true, so the Bridge can discover and expose all six.
Yes, unconditionally, once Archivarix External Images Importer is active. Nothing else has to be configured for the Bridge to discover them.
Needs WordPress 6.9 or later (the plugin itself works from WordPress 6.0, but ability registration needs the Abilities API) with the plugin active. Every ability checks manage_options, so only an administrator-level connected user can run any of them.

An agent can list and read galleries, list gallery layouts and their setting schemas, search the media library for attachments, create a new gallery from attachment IDs, and update an existing gallery's settings, layout, or attachment list.
An agent can add YouTube, Vimeo, or self-hosted videos to the media library, look up, update, or delete existing video records and their shortcodes, manage chapter markers, and read or change Presto Player's global settings.
