mbcpt_list_post_typesmanage_options

List every custom post type registered through MB Custom Post Types (Meta Box), with each one's slug, singular and plural labels, description, public and hierarchical flags, the editor features it supports, the taxonomies bound to it, whether it has an archive, and whether it is exposed in the REST API. Returns registration DEFINITIONS only - the post type's content is read through the core post tools, not here. Read-only.

}
mbcpt_list_taxonomiesmanage_options

List every taxonomy registered through MB Custom Post Types (Meta Box), with each one's slug, singular and plural labels, description, hierarchical flag, the post types it attaches to, and whether it is public and exposed in the REST API. Returns registration DEFINITIONS only - the taxonomy's terms are read through the core term tools, not here. Read-only.

mbcpt_save_post_typeDestructive

Create or update ONE MB Custom Post Types post-type DEFINITION (the registration, not any post content). Pass the post-type slug plus the fields to set; omitted fields keep their prior value on an update, or take WordPress-sensible defaults on a create. If the slug already exists this updates its definition post; otherwise it creates a new published definition post, unless create_only is true (then an existing slug is refused). Set dry_run=true to preview the resulting definition and whether it would create or update, without writing. Emits an undo token. This changes site structure: registering or reshaping a post type affects routing, admin menus, and REST exposure site-wide. It does NOT touch existing posts of this type.

mbcpt_delete_post_typeDestructive

Remove ONE MB Custom Post Types post-type DEFINITION (unregister it). The definition post is moved to trash, not permanently deleted: because MB Custom Post Types only registers published definitions, trashing unregisters the post type, and it can be restored later (the undo token restores it). Existing posts of this type are NOT deleted - they remain in the database, orphaned (no admin UI, no front-end route) until the type is registered again. Refuses unless the slug currently exists. Set dry_run=true to preview what would be removed; otherwise confirm=true is required because this changes site structure and hides content. Emits an undo token restoring the definition.

}
mbcpt_save_taxonomyDestructive

Create or update ONE MB Custom Post Types taxonomy DEFINITION (the registration, not any terms). Pass the taxonomy slug plus fields to set; omitted fields keep their prior value on an update, or take WordPress-sensible defaults on a create. object_types (the post types this taxonomy attaches to) is required and non-empty on create. If the slug exists this updates its definition post; otherwise it creates one, unless create_only is true. Set dry_run=true to preview without writing. Emits an undo token. Changes site structure; does NOT touch existing terms.
