}'MCP servers expose WordPress.com actions as on-demand tools.
New Follower is an event source, so your application deploys it
with the Connect SDK or API and then either receives each event at a
webhook URL or retrieves events on demand with the trigger events API.MCP exposes on-demand actions. Event sources are deployed through the Connect SDK or API because they continue listening after the initial request.

Event delivery
01
Connect
Your user authorizes WordPress.com through Pipedream managed auth.
02
Deploy
Your backend deploys this source with that user's own configuration.
03
Webhook delivery
Every event is sent to the HTTP endpoint you choose when you deploy the source — after each poll.
OR
