wp-project-triage

Use when you need a deterministic inspection of a WordPress repository (plugin/theme/block theme/WP core/Gutenberg/full site) including tooling/tests/version hints, and a structured JSON report to guide workflows and guardrails.

How to use

  1. Copy the installation command and review the source package before installing it in your own agent environment.
  2. Check the source document for required tools, credentials and supported hosts.
  3. Describe your input and desired deliverable; review the output against the source material.

Before you start

  • Installation does not include a model subscription, API allowance or permission to access your files.
  • Repository stars and installation counts describe activity, not an independent quality or security test.

WP Project Triage

When to use

Use this skill to quickly understand what kind of WordPress repo you’re in and what commands/conventions to follow before making changes.

Inputs required

  • Repo root (current working directory).

Procedure

  1. Run the detector (prints JSON to stdout):
  • node skills/wp-project-triage/scripts/detect_wp_project.mjs
  1. If you need the exact output contract, read:
  • skills/wp-project-triage/references/triage.schema.json
  1. Use the report to select workflow guardrails:
  • project kind(s)
  • PHP/Node tooling present
  • tests present
  • version hints and sources
  1. If the report is missing signals you need, update the detector rather than guessing.

Verification

  • The JSON should parse and include: project.kind, signals, and tooling.
  • Re-run after changes that affect structure/tooling (adding theme.json, block.json, build config).

Failure modes / debugging

  • If it reports unknown, check whether the repo root is correct.
  • If scanning is slow, add/extend ignore directories in the script.
