Agent skill
wordpress-mcp-dev
Build and maintain modern WordPress plugins and MCP servers, including hybrid WordPress+MCP products. Use when implementing plugin architecture (PHP, REST API, Gutenberg/admin/page-builder integrations), MCP tooling (TypeScript/Python, stdio/HTTP transport), security hardening, licensing/updates, and delivery workflows from scaffold to distribution.

WordPress + MCP Development
Use this skill to ship production-grade WordPress plugins, MCP servers, or both together.
Workflow
- Identify target product shape:
plugin,mcp-server, orhybrid. - Choose architecture and scaffold from the relevant reference.
- Implement minimum viable vertical slice first:
- Plugin: one secure REST route + one real feature path.
- MCP: one read-only tool + one mutating tool with safe validation.
- Hybrid: one plugin endpoint consumed by one MCP tool.
- Add safety controls before expanding scope: capability checks, nonce/auth, sanitized errors, and rollback strategy.
- Validate against checklists before release.
Guardrails
- Keep plugin bootstrap thin; place behavior in namespaced classes.
- Prefix all plugin symbols to avoid collisions.
- Treat MCP tool schemas/descriptions as API contracts for model behavior.
- Return actionable errors and avoid leaking secrets.
- Prefer duplicate-first content edits for AI-assisted write operations.
