      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/full/path/to/mcpwp/dist/main.js",
        "--cache"

"How do I use wp_enqueue_script with dependencies?"
"Show me a plugin pattern for creating a modular structure"  
"Find hooks related to user authentication"
"Explain the wp_enqueue_scripts hook"

🔧 Linux Troubleshooting

Node.js Issues

# Check Node.js version (must be 18+)
node --version

# If too old, update:
curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_lts.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

Permission Issues

# Make scripts executable
chmod +x install.sh verify-installation.js

# Or run with node directly
node verify-installation.js

Build Issues

# Clean rebuild
rm -rf node_modules dist package-lock.json
npm install
npm run build

Claude Desktop Config

# Create config directory if missing
mkdir -p ~/.config/Claude

# Copy example config
cp claude-desktop-config-example.json ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

# Edit with your actual path
nano ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
