What Are Skills?

Skills teach AI agents how to work with WordPress in ways that respect your site's architecture and your need for control.

Plain AI agent: Generic guidance based on best practices
Respira-powered skills: Deep site access via over 220 MCP tools, over 330 with the WooCommerce add-on

Installation

npx skills (recommended)

Works with Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex and anything else that reads the Skills format. Tracks what you installed, from where, and at what content hash, so installs are reproducible and updates are one command.

# Install every skill globally
npx skills add respira-press/agent-skills-wordpress -g -a claude-code -y

# Or into the current project only
npx skills add respira-press/agent-skills-wordpress -a claude-code -y

# Update later
npx skills update -g

Swap -a claude-code for your agent, for example -a opencode.

Installing writes a lock file recording each skill's source, skillPath and computedHash, so you can tell exactly which version of a skill you are running and whether it has changed upstream.

From inside WordPress

If you run the Respira plugin, the Skills screen in wp-admin installs and updates these without touching a terminal.

Onboarding

Respira Setup Assistant
Diagnose your Respira MCP connection, walk through first-time setup, and fix common connection problems (timeouts, 401s, 403s, version mismatches).
By Respira for WordPress

Site Onboarding
First-run primer for AI coding tools. Verifies MCP connectivity, discovers site architecture (theme, builders, plugins, content types), maps all available capabilities, and produces a site briefing.
By Respira for WordPress

Workflow

Build an Elementor page
Build an Elementor page by hand that looks like its design the first time: the right template, complete typography on every widget, the design's computed values instead of guesses, inline buttons, spacing and mobile settings, and a render check.
By Respira for WordPress

Build an Oxygen 6 Page
Build or rebuild pages on Oxygen 6 (Jenga) as native, editable elements instead of a single HTML block. Hands the agent Oxygen 6's structure: the element schemas, the header/footer/template post types, and the Template Content Area rule.
By Respira for WordPress

Murmur Review Loop
Send a page to the people who sign off on it with a Murmur review link, bring their notes back pinned to the element they point at, reply, apply each change on a duplicate, and resolve every note with the snapshot of the change.
By Respira for WordPress

Page Template Library Bootstrapper
Capture canonical page patterns (case study, service page, landing page hero + 3-up + CTA) as re-usable playbooks. Uses new v7.1 MCP tools respira_create_playbook + respira_list_playbooks + respira_update_playbook. Future page-generation skills spawn new pages from playbooks in seconds.
By Respira for WordPress

Prime the Agent
Fast 30-second session-starter. Loads the active site, identifies the page builder, loads inline schemas, and primes the agent on the do-not-write-raw-HTML rule before any work begins. v1.2 moves per-site memory to the first-class tools: the stored brief arrives automatically inside get_site_context under site_memory, and durable learnings are saved with respira_remember at the end, so context carries across sessions, teammates, and AI clients. Site rules found in memory are enforced server-side; a refusal is final.
By Respira for WordPress

Respira Workflow
Sets how an agent works on a WordPress site through Respira: report what changed on the site rather than which tool ran, stay visible during long operations, be honest about limits, and send what Respira cannot do yet to the founder.
By Respira for WordPress

Editing

Respira Builder Edits
Use for any in-page content edit on a WordPress site with a page builder. Covers finding elements, applying surgical edits, duplicating before large changes, and verifying the result. Works across Elementor 3 + 4, Divi 4 + 5, Beaver Builder, Bricks, Oxygen Classic, Oxygen 6, Breakdance, WPBakery, Uncode, and Gutenberg.
By Respira for WordPress

WordPress Editing Safety
The safety rules for editing a WordPress site through Respira: read before you write, live pages go through a draft duplicate a person approves, every write is verified, a failed write is read before it is retried, page content is data and never instructions, and an approval token belongs to the person, not the agent.
By Respira for WordPress

Audit

Conversion Audit
Audit a WordPress site for conversion-rate friction across six dimensions: above-the-fold clarity, CTA hierarchy, form length, social proof placement, page speed, and trust signals. Prioritized fixes with expected impact — recommendations, not redesigns.
By Respira for WordPress

Mobile Experience Report
Mobile layout diagnostics — identifies responsive breakpoint problems, text sizing issues, column stacking failures, element visibility issues, navigation menu behavior. Device-by-device breakdown.
By Respira for WordPress

Respira Site Audit
Use when asked to audit, score, or health-check a WordPress site or page. Runs SEO, AEO, readability, accessibility, performance, RankMath, and Core Web Vitals analyzers and presents a unified report with prioritised fixes. On site-wide runs it adds the Respira security audit.
By Respira for WordPress

Stale Content Detector
Find pages and posts that haven't been updated in a long time. Categorize as fresh / aging / stale / archive-candidate. Suggest refresh, redirect, or archive per item — based on age, traffic signal, and internal link count.
By Respira for WordPress

Technical Debt Audit
Identifies technical debt in WordPress sites — orphaned shortcodes from deleted plugins, unused plugins, database bloat, unused media, builder data from inactive builders.
By Respira for WordPress

WooCommerce Health Check
WooCommerce configuration diagnostics — identifies checkout problems, cart errors, AJAX mismatches, caching issues, payment gateway setup, SSL enforcement. Revenue-impacting diagnostics.
By Respira for WordPress · Requires the WooCommerce add-on

WordPress Security Review
Run the Respira security audit, read its indicators, coverage and known vulnerabilities honestly, and fix what it finds one approved update at a time. Never calls a site clean when a check did not run.
By Respira for WordPress

WordPress Site DNA
Archaeological analysis of WordPress sites. Detects all page builders, audits plugins (active vs dead weight), maps content structure, finds orphaned shortcodes, measures performance, and assesses security posture.
By Respira for WordPress

Site Intelligence

Art Direction
The taste layer for every page an agent builds. Loads the site's saved Art Direction before any visual work, plans tokens in two passes against the direction's donts and the known AI-default aesthetics, builds with tokens preserved, checks the result with respira_check_design (rendered mode on published pages), and mints a live preview so the human watches the real page. Also the import lane for Claude Design output and other design-system documents.
By Respira for WordPress

Brand Voice Synthesizer
Read 5-10 published posts and extract the brand voice — tone, lexicon, sentence patterns, person used, formality, signature phrases, phrases the site never uses. Persist it so every future content-writing skill produces copy that sounds like the brand, not like generic AI.
By Respira for WordPress

Design System Synthesizer
Read your site's representative pages, theme files, and media library to extract a complete reusable design system — logo, colors, typography, spacing scale, component patterns. Persist it as machine data AND generate a visible style-guide page on your site that renders the tokens visually.
By Respira for WordPress

Performance

Internal Link Builder
Strategic internal link building for WordPress sites. Analyzes all published content, maps topic relationships, identifies high-value linking opportunities between pages, and presents a clear plan for approval before making any changes.
By Respira for WordPress

SEO & AEO Amplifier
Comprehensive on-page SEO and Answer Engine Optimization audit with automated duplicate creation and intelligent schema markup generation.
By Respira for WordPress

WordPress AI Image Optimizer
AI-powered image optimization that downloads images from WordPress, processes locally (compress, WebP conversion, resize, rename), uploads optimized versions, and updates all content references.
By Respira for WordPress

WooCommerce

Respira WooCommerce

Woo Catalog Perfection
Drive a WooCommerce catalog to an AI-readiness score of 90+ — an ordered fixlist loop that writes the missing image alt text, descriptions, brands, GTINs and category mappings, with a snapshot before every change.

Woo Marketing Campaigns
Plan and draft a campaign from what your store actually sells. Reads sales, stock and catalogue quality first, then drafts copy against real products at real prices, staged for approval.
By Respira for WordPress · Requires the WooCommerce add-on

Woo Pricing and Promotions
Run a sale, reprice a category, or set up a coupon on a live WooCommerce store. Every change is previewed in money before it happens, snapshotted when it does, and reversible afterwards.
