If you manage more than a handful of WordPress sites, you already know the drill. Every morning, before any actual client work happens, someone on your team is opening dashboards, checking plugin updates, confirming backups ran, and making sure nothing quietly broke overnight.
On a single site, that check takes about 5 minutes. Across a 20-site portfolio, that’s close to 2 hours a week, every week, spent just confirming nothing is on fire.
We built Pressable MCP so that check can be a single prompt instead of a morning ritual. Here’s the one we’d tell you to start with.
The prompt
Connect your AI client of choice to your Pressable account (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and five others are supported), then run this:
Review all sites in my Pressable account and give me a summary of: plugins with pending updates, PHP versions below 8.1, sites with failed backups in the last 24 hours, and any sites currently disabled or in maintenance mode.
That’s it. One prompt, one pass across your whole portfolio.
What you get back
A prioritized list of sites needing action, grouped by issue type.
Plugin names, current versions, and available updates.
PHP version flags and upgrade candidates.
Backup failures with timestamps so you know when they started.
A clean record of account-level changes for the week.
Build it into your morning standup. Review the output, assign anything flagged, and get to real client work faster.

This prompt is one piece of a larger system. We put together a full field guide covering six tested workflows (daily audits, error log triage, site onboarding, monthly client reporting, security sweeps, and WooCommerce store operations), setup instructions for all 8 supported AI clients, and 40 prompts you can start using the same day you open it.
If the morning routine above already sounds like something your team needs, the rest of the guide covers error triage, site onboarding, monthly reporting, and quarterly security sweeps.
