WP Performance (backend-only)
When to use
Use this skill when:
- a WordPress site/page/endpoint is slow (frontend TTFB, admin, REST, WP-Cron)
- you need a profiling plan and tooling recommendations (WP-CLI profile/doctor, Query Monitor, Xdebug/XHProf, APMs)
- you’re optimizing DB queries, autoloaded options, object caching, cron tasks, or remote HTTP calls
This skill assumes the agent cannot use a browser UI. Prefer WP-CLI, logs, and HTTP requests.
Inputs required
- Environment and safety: dev/staging/prod, any restrictions (no writes, no plugin installs).
- How to target the install:
- WP root
--path=<path> - (multisite/site targeting)
--url=<url>
- WP root
- The performance symptom and scope:

14wp-phpstan
Use when configuring, running, or fixing PHPStan static analysis in WordPress projects (plugins/themes/sites): phpstan.neon setup, baselines, WordPress-specific typing, and handling third-party plugin classes.
14wp-abilities-api
