QIT

You deploy a dedicated MCP server that wraps the QIT CLI to let you drive WordPress/WooCommerce plugin testing with natural language commands and agent-based workflows. This server exposes all essential QIT CLI functionality through MCP tools and automatically detects the QIT CLI location for seamless operation.

How to use

Connect your MCP client to the server via stdio. You can issue natural language requests that map to QIT CLI actions, such as authenticating, running tests, managing environments, handling test results, and configuring packages. Use conversational commands to perform tasks like running a security test on a plugin, starting a local test environment, listing recent tests, or inspecting test reports.

How to install

Prerequisites: Node.js 18 or newer and the QIT CLI installed and accessible on your system.

Clone the MCP server repository, install dependencies, and build the project.

Additional notes

Configuration examples show how to wire the MCP server to Claude Code or other clients. The MCP server detects the QIT CLI in this order: QIT_CLI_PATH environment variable, qit in system PATH, or a local vendor path.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "qit": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/qit-mcp/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "QIT_CLI_PATH": "/path/to/qit-cli/qit"
      }
    }
  }
}

Configuration

Your MCP client can reference the QIT MCP server using the following stdio configuration. This maps the local node process to the MCP server that wraps the QIT CLI.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "qit": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/qit-mcp/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "QIT_CLI_PATH": "/path/to/qit-cli/qit"
      }
    }
  }
}
