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