Self-hosted or Cloud

The plugin has three modes. You pick one on Settings → agentprose; the default is the first.

	Self-hosted (default)	Own analytics endpoint	agentprose Cloud
Set up	nothing	Own analytics endpoint URL	Site key (`pk_…`)
Tools for agents	✅ all	✅ all	✅ all, plus `get_contact_info` from your Cloud notes
Search	WordPress REST search	WordPress REST search	hosted full-text search, falling back to WordPress search
Analytics	none	one beacon per tool call to your URL	dashboard at agentprose.cloud
External requests	none	to your endpoint	to `https://agentprose.cloud`

Self-hosted

Every file (the agentprose script, its engine, and the WebMCP polyfill) is served from your site, and the tools only call your own REST API from the visitor’s browser. Nothing leaves your site.

Own analytics endpoint

Each time an agent calls a tool, the browser sends one message to your URL with navigator.sendBeacon: tool name, outcome, timing, page address, search query (up to 200 characters), result count, the post address asked for, a short error code and a random per-page-load id. Never post content. Ignored when a Cloud site key is set. The message format is in the configuration reference (data-analytics).

agentprose Cloud

agentprose Cloud is the hosted companion by the same maintainers. Create a site there (the Free plan covers one site), copy its public key, and paste it into Site key. The plugin then:

sends the same per-call message to https://agentprose.cloud/v1/collect, so you see which agents came, what they read, and what they searched for and didn’t find;
answers search_posts from the Cloud’s index of your public pages (/v1/search), unless you untick Hosted search; if that request fails, WordPress search is used;
lets agents read the notes and contact details you enter in the Cloud dashboard through get_contact_info and get_site_info, fetched only when an agent asks, never on page load.

Even with a key, the scripts themselves are still served from your site: only those requests go to the Cloud. Like any web request, they reveal the visitor’s IP address to the Cloud; see the Cloud’s privacy policy and terms.
