WordPress Plugin Publish

Use Pressship for WordPress.org plugin submission and release work. Prefer npx pressship unless the user explicitly wants the local checkout version.

Safety Rules

• Never publish, submit, reupload, or release without first running a dry run, unless the user explicitly says to skip it.
• Do not push git commits or tags unless the user explicitly asks.
• Report Plugin Check findings clearly. Do not hide them just because Pressship can continue.
• Use repeatable excludes for large or source-only files. Prefer .pressshipignore when the project already has one.
• If Pressship prompts interactively, answer only with user-approved or obvious plugin metadata.
• If authentication fails, run npx pressship login and let the user complete WordPress.org login.
