WooCommerce Becomes Central AI Orchestration Layer
|
8.2
Automattic’s Director of Engineering AI James LePage says WooCommerce will become a central orchestration layer in 2026 by adopting the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and open standards like ACP and UCP, enabling external AI systems to plug into stores. He says WordPress core v7 (releasing April 9, 2026) will include foundational pieces, letting developers build Sidekick-type extensions and agentic commerce workflows.
