MCP Abilities - Open User Map: An AI Assistant Updates One WordPress Location

An AI assistant can use this WordPress plugin to update one native Open User Map location’s address and coordinates without rebuilding the rest of its stored record.

Update the location fields, preserve the record

This plugin adds one narrow maintenance operation for native Open User Map location records. It changes the requested address, latitude, and longitude values for one native location and preserves fields outside those values.

Target one native location

The target must be an existing native oum-location post that the authorized caller may edit.

Validate both coordinates

Latitude must be between -90 and 90. Longitude must be between -180 and 180.

Change only the requested values

open-user-map/update-location updates one native location’s address and coordinates while leaving fields outside the requested values unchanged.

A narrow boundary protects the data you did not mean to change

The operation is limited to native Open User Map location posts. Open User Map remains the owner of the oum-location post type and location-data format. The ability does not add a public REST route or an unauthenticated endpoint.

What must be active

The controlled update depends on the native location owner and the interfaces and runtime that expose it.
