# Manage every WordPress site at once with ChatGPT dots

> Managing every WordPress site at once with a ChatGPT dot means giving OpenAI's always-on agent a fleet task in xSpeed Hub, such as a morning benchmark of the whole workspace, and reading one result per site in its conversation.

A dot is the ChatGPT agent you keep, with its own cloud computer and memory, so it suits the person who runs a dozen WordPress sites and wants something watching them between conversations. The dot uses the same xspeedhub app you created in ChatGPT developer mode, because OpenAI shares plugin permissions across dots and ChatGPT. You ask it once, in plain words, to benchmark every site each morning. It calls run_benchmark with site set to "all", the Hub works through the workspace one site after another with a one-second pause, and the dot posts the cached and uncached times for each site in the conversation.

That scheduled run is the right shape for fleet work in a dot, because run_benchmark is a read and changes nothing. The other six fan-out tools write: purge_cache, toggle_cache, update_settings, start_preloader, stop_preloader and optimize_site. When the morning report shows a problem, you answer in the same conversation and the dot proposes the fix, for example a purge on every site after a shared header change. The Hub returns one row per site with ok and either data or an error, so a run that clears nine sites and misses one is a partial success, and the dot should name the one it missed.

Approval has two layers here, and neither belongs to the Hub. In a ChatGPT chat, write actions from a developer-mode app need your confirmation by default, and ChatGPT treats a tool without a read-only annotation as a write, which covers every Hub tool. In the dot, Custom rules decide what it does on its own: Take action without asking, Take action if pre-approved, Ask before taking action or Hand off to you. Keep a rule on Ask before taking action for xSpeed Hub changes. For a purge, toggle, settings or preloader call that touches every site, the Hub also tells the agent to state the site count first, but that is an instruction to the model, not a lock, and it does not name optimize_site.

## Set up ChatGPT dots once

### 1. Put your sites in xSpeed Hub

Sign in at app.xspeedcache.com with Google or email; the Hub is free and has no site cap. Then connect each WordPress site from its own dashboard: click Connect Hub in the xSpeed Cache top bar, then Connect via xSpeed Hub. Each site needs the free xSpeed Cache plugin.

### 2. Create the xspeedhub app in ChatGPT

In ChatGPT on the web, turn on Developer mode under Settings, Security and login. Open Plugins, select the plus button and create a developer-mode app named xspeedhub with this URL and OAuth. Click Scan Tools, approve access on the xSpeed Hub page that opens, then click Create. If ChatGPT already has the app, skip this step. On a Business workspace only an admin or owner can turn on developer mode and publish the app.

```
https://app.xspeedcache.com/xspeed/mcp
```

### 3. Check that your dot can see it

OpenAI says plugin permissions are shared across dots and ChatGPT. Open your dot's profile, then Customize and Plugins, and check that xspeedhub is there. That screen uses the shared ChatGPT settings, and OpenAI notes the apps available to a dot may differ, so confirm it before you hand over a task.

```
Dot profile  >  Customize  >  Plugins  >  xspeedhub
```

### 4. Add a custom rule for site changes

Under Customize, Custom rules, describe the action and pick a behavior: Take action without asking, Take action if pre-approved, Ask before taking action, or Hand off to you. Add a rule that covers purging a cache, changing settings or running a speed test through xSpeed Hub, and choose Ask before taking action.

```
Customize  >  Custom rules  >  xSpeed Hub changes: Ask before taking action
```

### Before you send a prompt that changes something

Reads change nothing on your sites, though contact_support emails xSpeed support. Writes run once your connection allows them, so your client's approval prompt and a read-only connection (the token's Read-only everywhere switch, or a Viewer sign-in) are the gates that matter. In a ChatGPT chat, write actions from a developer-mode app need your confirmation by default, and ChatGPT treats a tool without a read-only annotation as a write. xSpeed Hub's tools carry no such annotation. A dot comes with OpenAI's defaults for which actions need approval, and Custom rules let you set, for an action you describe, Take action without asking, Take action if pre-approved, Ask before taking action or Hand off to you. xSpeed Hub has no confirmation step of its own, so a rule that lets your dot act without asking runs a purge or a settings change as soon as your connection allows writes. Keep xSpeed Hub changes on Ask before taking action. For read-only access, sign in as a Viewer member of the workspace; the connection token's Read-only everywhere switch does not apply, because the app signs in with OAuth.

## Prompts

- Every weekday at 8:00, use xSpeed Hub to benchmark every site and post the cached and uncached times. Report only.
- With xSpeed Hub, purge the page cache on every site in my workspace and tell me which ones failed.
- Ask xSpeed Hub for every workspace this connection reaches and how many sites each one has.

## Example session

```
You: Use xSpeed Hub to benchmark every site this morning and tell me which ones look wrong. Report only.
  → list_sites [read-only]: 8 sites in the default workspace
  → run_benchmark(site: all) [read-only]: 7 benchmarked; six over 5x faster cached, blog 380 ms cached against 410 ms uncached; client-r unreachable
Agent: Seven of eight sites answered. blog barely gains from its cache, and client-r did not respond. This was a read, so nothing changed. Shall I check blog's cache status?
You: Yes, check blog.
  → get_cache_status(site: blog) [read-only]: page cache off
Agent: Page caching is off on blog, which explains the small gap. Turn it on for blog?
You: Yes, turn it on.
  → toggle_cache(site: blog, enabled: true) [changes site]: page cache turned on for blog
Agent: Page caching is on for blog. Tomorrow's benchmark will show the new gap, and I will chase client-r again then.
```

## How it works

1. **See what you can reach**: list_sites returns each site's handle, URL, status and scopes. When you have more than one workspace, list_workspaces returns each one's handle, id, your role, its site count, which one is the default, and whether this connection can reach it.
2. **Choose the scope of the call**: The agent passes site: "all" for every site in one workspace, or an array of handles for exactly those sites. For a workspace other than the default it also passes the workspace argument. Omit workspace and the call acts on the default workspace.
3. **Confirm once**: Before a purge, toggle, settings change or preloader call that touches every site, the Hub tells the agent to say "this will touch all N sites" and wait for you, then make one call. That instruction does not name optimize_site, so for it your client's prompt is the gate. It is guidance to the agent, not a lock. It is one tool call, so one approval in your client covers every site in it.
4. **Run it as one call**: The Hub runs the sites one after another with a one-second pause between live calls, so a fleet purge is not a burst of traffic at your servers. Revoked sites are skipped from "all". Each site's action lands in the activity log as its own row.
5. **Read the result per site**: The reply is a summary of targets, succeeded and failed, plus one row per site with ok and either its data or its error. Some sites failing is a partial success. Only a run where every site failed comes back as an error.
6. **Follow up on the failures**: The agent reports which sites failed and why, then retries just those handles with an array. Tools that read one site, such as get_cache_status and get_health, do not fan out, so a fleet-wide check means one call per site.

## Reference

| | |
| --- | --- |
| Fan-out tools | purge_cache, toggle_cache, update_settings, start_preloader, stop_preloader, optimize_site, run_benchmark |
| Selector | site: "all", or an array of handles |
| What all covers | Every site this connection can see in one workspace, minus revoked ones |
| Pacing | One after another, with a 1 second pause between live calls |
| Result | summary (targets, succeeded, failed) and a row per site: ok, then data or error |
| Partial failure | Reported per site; the call counts as an error only when every site failed |
| Workspace argument | Optional. Omit it for the default workspace; name one by its handle or id from list_workspaces |
| Reach | Fixed when you approve the connection; list_workspaces shows reachable: false for the rest |
| Not fan-out | get_health, get_cache_status and every other tool take one site per call |
| Slow tools | optimize_site takes up to 2 minutes per site; a target_score run is capped at 12 rounds per call |
| Read-only | The connection token with Read-only everywhere on, or a Viewer sign-in, refuses every fan-out write; run_benchmark works. An OAuth sign-in gets the scopes the client asks for |
| Hub daily pass | Re-verifies sites, snapshots cache status and hit ratio, reads stored reports, alerts by Slack webhook or email |

## Rules

- Confirm once, then call once. The Hub has no confirmation step of its own, so your client's approval prompt and a read-only connection (the connection token with Read-only everywhere on, or a Viewer sign-in) are the gates that matter. The Hub's "this will touch all N sites" is an instruction to the agent for purge, toggle, settings and preloader calls, and it does not name optimize_site.
- "all" is one workspace, never every workspace. To act in another workspace, name it. A write to a non-default workspace must name it, and an array of handles is looked up only in the workspace the call names.
- Read every result per site. Treat some sites failing as a partial result, and never accept a blanket "done" from the agent.
- Try a behaviour change on one site before you send it to the fleet. toggle_cache and update_settings on every site are one call, and each site checks values against its own settings, so a Pro setting can fail on a Free site.
- optimize_site on many sites is slow, because each site can take up to two minutes inside one call. Use dry_run first, or name a short list of handles.
- The Hub has no scheduler for agent prompts. Its own daily pass and alerts run without an agent, and an agent can only act when you send a prompt or your AI client runs one on a timer.

## Good to know with ChatGPT dots

A scheduled run has nobody watching it. If a custom rule lets the dot take xSpeed Hub actions without asking, a scheduled prompt that drifts from report to fix can purge or toggle every site unattended, so keep scheduled prompts to run_benchmark and other reads, and write "report only" into the wording. The app signs in with OAuth, so the Hub's Read-only everywhere switch, which belongs to the connection token, does not apply. For a dot that should never write, sign in as a Viewer member of the workspace. Check availability before you build a routine around it: OpenAI lists dots for Pro users outside the European Economic Area, Switzerland and the UK, for Business Premium, and as a beta on Enterprise, Edu and Healthcare, and developer mode has its own plan rules. Remember too that "all" means one workspace. If you manage client workspaces, name the one the dot should act in. To stop every scheduled run at once, choose Pause from the menu in the dot's profile.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can a ChatGPT dot run a fleet benchmark every morning?

Yes. Ask it in plain words for a recurring check and it schedules one. run_benchmark accepts every site in one call and is a read, so a scheduled benchmark changes nothing and posts a result per site in the conversation.

### Does my dot need its own xSpeed Hub connection?

No. OpenAI shares plugin permissions across dots and ChatGPT, so the xspeedhub app you created in developer mode is the one your dot uses. Check under Customize, Plugins in the dot's profile that it is listed before you hand over a fleet task.

### What does site "all" cover?

Every site the connection can see in one workspace. It never crosses workspaces, and revoked sites are skipped. If your connection is limited to some sites, "all" quietly means the sites you are allowed, with no error naming the rest. To act in another workspace, the agent names it with the workspace argument.

### What happens if one site fails?

The other sites still run. The reply has a summary and a row for each site with ok and its data or its error, so a site that was unreachable is named. A run counts as an error only when every site failed. Ask the agent to retry just the failed handles.

### Can the agent check the health of every site in one call?

No. get_health and get_cache_status take one site per call, so the agent loops. The tools that fan out are purge_cache, toggle_cache, update_settings, start_preloader, stop_preloader, optimize_site and run_benchmark. The Hub dashboard has a fleet overview for health.

### Does the Hub watch my fleet when no agent is running?

Yes, on its own. A daily pass re-verifies each site, retrying a failed probe once, snapshots cache status and hit ratio, and reads the PageSpeed and GTmetrix reports your sites already stored. It can alert you by Slack webhook or email when a site becomes unreachable, caching is switched off, the hit ratio falls below a floor you set, or a score regresses. Each alert fires once per incident, not every day.

### Does the Hub ask before it touches every site?

The Hub has no confirmation step. Its instructions tell the agent to confirm once with you, saying how many sites a call will touch, but that is guidance and not a lock. Your AI client's approval prompt and a read-only connection (the connection token with Read-only everywhere on, or a Viewer sign-in) are what stop a write. The instruction covers purge, toggle, settings and preloader calls, not optimize_site. The dashboard's own Purge all button does confirm before it runs.

### Can the agent add sites, remove sites or change who has access?

No. It cannot add, remove or rename sites, change members, roles or billing, mint or rotate tokens, or widen the workspaces this connection reaches. Those stay in the Hub dashboard.
