WP Performance Review

When to use

Use this skill when:

• Reviewing PR/code for WordPress theme or plugin
• User reports slow page loads, timeouts, or 500 errors
• Auditing before high-traffic event (launch, sale, viral moment)
• Optimizing WP_Query or database operations
• Investigating memory exhaustion or DB locks

Inputs required

• Files or directories to review.
• Context: dev/staging/prod environment.
• Any constraints: read-only access, no plugin installs.
• Symptoms: slow TTFB, specific URL, admin vs frontend.
