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.
