GoDaddy is the trickiest of the common hosts. They disable XML-RPC entirely and aggressively rate-limit REST API calls. Two steps make Cowork Bridge work cleanly.
1. Open a support ticket (recommended)
Raise a ticket with GoDaddy asking them to allow access to /wp-json/coworkmcp/* — that’s the route Cowork Bridge owns. They’ll typically do this within a day. This avoids rate-limit timeouts.
2. Allowlist the path in the GoDaddy Manage panel
- GoDaddy → Manage → Settings → Security.
- Add
/wp-json/coworkmcp/*to the allowed paths. - Some GoDaddy plans also require Allow REST API → ON under the same settings page.
If you still see frequent timeouts
That’s the rate limit. The GoDaddy ticket from step 1 is the lasting fix.
