Use when the user asks about WordPress codebases (plugins, themes, block themes, Gutenberg blocks, WP core checkouts) and you need to quickly classify the repo and route to the correct workflow/skill (blocks, theme.json, REST API, WP-CLI, performance, security, testing, release packaging).

Quick Install

npxskills add wordpress/agent-skills--skill wordpress-router

Instructions

WordPress Router

When to use

Use this skill at the start of most WordPress tasks to:

identify what kind of WordPress codebase this is (plugin vs theme vs block theme vs WP core checkout vs full site),
pick the right workflow and guardrails,
delegate to the most relevant domain skill(s).

Inputs required

Repo root (current working directory).
The user’s intent (what they want changed) and any constraints (WP version targets, WP.com specifics, release requirements).

Procedure

Run the project triage script:
- node skills/wp-project-triage/scripts/detect_wp_project.mjs
Read the triage output and classify:
- primary project kind(s),
- tooling available (PHP/Composer, Node, @wordpress/scripts),
- tests present (PHPUnit, Playwright, wp-env),
- any version hints.
Route to domain workflows based on user intent + repo kind:
- For the decision tree, read: skills/wordpress-router/references/decision-tree.md.
Apply guardrails before making changes:
- Confirm any version constraints if unclear.
- Prefer the repo’s existing tooling and conventions for builds/tests.

Verification

Re-run the triage script if you create or restructure significant files.
Run the repo’s lint/test/build commands that the triage output recommends (if available).

Failure modes / debugging

If triage reports kind: unknown, inspect:
- root composer.json, package.json, style.css, block.json, theme.json, wp-content/.
If the repo is huge, consider narrowing scanning scope or adding ignore rules to the triage script.

Escalation

If routing is ambiguous, ask one question:
- “Is this intended to be a WordPress plugin, a theme (classic/block), or a full site repo?”
