Agent-skills 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.

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
  2. If you need the exact output contract, read:
    • skills/wp-project-triage/references/triage.schema.json
  3. Use the report to select workflow guardrails:
    • project kind(s)
    • PHP/Node tooling present
    • tests present
    • version hints and sources
  4. 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.
