Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check PHP and WordPress docs every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 3

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

php
check_php_upgrade
Check which of the given PHP symbols are linked from the official php.net migration pages between two minor versions. Returns each hit with kind incompatible or deprecated, the version, and the page URL. A symbol that is absent was not named on those pages, which is not proof the code is safe. Send from, to, and symbols, or code instead of symbols. The span can cover at most 8 minor versions. An empty breaks list is still a successful, charged check when the pages were read. The first 5 successful calls each UTC day from one network address are free and need no key. A not_found, bad_range, or fetch_failed is not charged and does not use a free call. After the 5, send X-API-Key. A key call costs 0.04 credit only on success. Key: https://firm.bestsmartgoods.com/signup
query_php_docs
Read one current English manual page for a PHP symbol or a WordPress function, hook, or class. Returns the official page URL, the version line, the signature, the description, and the first official example. php.net pages are the live English HTML manual. WordPress pages are the live developer.wordpress.org reference. This is not an archive of older manuals and it does not search Laravel, Symfony, or Markdown docs. The first 5 successful pages each UTC day from one network address are free and need no API key. A not_found or fetch_failed does not use a free page. After the 5, send header X-API-Key. A key call costs 0.04 credit only when a page is returned. Pass the symbol, for example str_contains or wp_insert_post. Set source to php or wordpress, or omit it and a wp_ name uses WordPress. Set version, for example 8.3 or 6.7, to learn whether that release is covered by the page version line. version_applies is null when version is omitted or the page has no version line. User comments are not included. Key: https://firm.bestsmartgoods.com/signup
explain
explain_php_error
Turn one PHP error message into the current English manual page for the function or method it names. Returns the manual URL, version line, signature, description, and first example. Use it when the agent has the error text. A message that names no function returns not_found. The first 5 successful calls each UTC day from one network address are free and need no key. A not_found, bad_range, or fetch_failed is not charged and does not use a free call. After the 5, send X-API-Key. A key call costs 0.04 credit only on success.

PHP and WordPress docs — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can PHP and WordPress docs do?
It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_php_upgrade, explain_php_error, query_php_docs. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is PHP and WordPress docs working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 379 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect PHP and WordPress docs?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does PHP and WordPress docs need an API key?
No. PHP and WordPress docs completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is PHP and WordPress docs?
It answers our handshake in 379 ms on average, which is faster than 33% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is PHP and WordPress docs open source?
We cannot say either way: 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
