WP Project Triage

94TrustedShips scripts

Automated inspection of WordPress directory structures to identify standards and tooling.

What it does

Wp Project Triage shifts the assistant from guessing about a directory structure to operating with an accurate map. By scanning the root of a project, the assistant generates a structured JSON report that categorizes the codebase and identifies existing build configurations, testing frameworks, and version requirements.

Installing this skill provides the assistant with a reliable diagnostic tool to determine project type and technical requirements. Instead of browsing individual files manually to find configuration hints, the assistant executes a check that informs how it should interact with your specific WordPress codebase.

When it earns its place

Reach for it when…

Apply this when you inherit a new WordPress codebase and need to identify if it is a block theme, a plugin, or core development. It is essential when you need to confirm which testing suites or build tools are active before performing maintenance or introducing new code.

Look elsewhere when…

Do not use this to debug live site issues, performance bottlenecks, or database queries. This tool is limited to local file system discovery and configuration parsing, meaning it cannot analyze runtime environments or identify errors in production hosting setups.

What to say to use it

You never invoke a skill directly — the assistant picks it up when your request matches what it covers. These are the kinds of things that do that.

What kind of WordPress project is this directory?
Detect the build tools and standards in this repo.
Tell me what testing frameworks are active in this plugin.
Identify if this is a block theme or a classic theme.

Install it

Install for all your projects

Copy the skill directory into your personal skills folder. Claude picks it up on its own the next time your request matches what it does — there is nothing to enable.

bash

git clone --depth 1 --branch trunk https://github.com/WordPress/agent-skills.git /tmp/agent-skills
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/agent-skills/skills/wp-project-triage ~/.claude/skills/wp-project-triage

Install for one project only

Put it in the project's own skills folder instead, so it can be committed and shared with everyone working on that repository.

bash

cp -r /tmp/agent-skills/skills/wp-project-triage .claude/skills/wp-project-triage

If a skill of the same name exists in both places, the personal one wins.

Installing on Claude.ai or through the API instead? The full guide covers every surface.

94/100Trusted source

What checks out

Original source. Published in the repository of whoever wrote it, rather than copied out of it into a collection.
Adoption. The host repository has 2,018 stars. This counts the whole repository, not this skill alone.
Official author. Published by the organisation that owns the subject it covers.
Recently maintained. The repository was updated 0 days ago.
Spec-compliant. Frontmatter matches the Agent Skills specification, so it loads in any client implementing it.
Substantive instructions. The body carries enough detail to change how a task is actually performed.

What to know

Licensed. A licence is referenced but not in a standard form, so the exact terms have to be read in the repository.

This score describes where the skill came from — its origin, licence, upkeep and conformance to the spec. It is not a security audit, and it says nothing about whether the skill's instructions are correct. How it is calculated.

What it ships

Executable files: 1 JavaScript file that can run on your machine
Files in total: 3, including reference documents loaded on demand
Context cost: about 371 tokens once activated (estimated)

Bundled scripts are normal — most skills from established authors include them. We have not run or reviewed this code; read it before installing if that matters to you.
