Plan targeted WordPress command-line operations with backups, dry runs and explicit site selection.
Editorial review checked 2026-10-29 against this instruction snapshot. Supporting scripts and runtime behavior remain outside this editorial review.
What it does
The source covers migrations, database handling, plugin and theme maintenance, cron, caches and multisite. An inspector helps establish WP-CLI availability and site targeting. The important operational distinction is between learning what the environment contains and authorizing a command that changes persistent state.
Best for
Operators preparing repeatable WordPress maintenance tasks or investigating a specific operational problem.
Tradeoffs and requirements
Database imports, search replacements and network-wide commands can have broad effects. A command reaching the right filesystem path does not prove it selected the intended multisite URL, and flushing all caches can temporarily increase production load.
Targets WordPress 7.0+ (PHP 7.4.0+). Requires WP-CLI in the execution environment.
Install from the source
Inspect the pinned source snapshot and its supporting files first. The command selects this skill through the open-source skills CLI. Node.js and agent-specific setup may be required. Installation can download code. Catalog ingestion never executes skill instructions or install scripts.
After source review, use npx skills check and npx skills update to inspect and apply upstream updates. Re-check changed instructions before running them.
Safety & review signals
Static review only. This is not a security audit or a guarantee of safety.
SKILL.md text only; scripts, dependencies and runtime behavior not audited.
No configured text patterns matched. Unmatched or concealed behavior can still exist.
Allowed tools declaration: Unknown. Runtime permissions and network behavior: Unknown.
Offline package integrity
A temporary folder-copy check, not an agent installation or runtime safety verdict.
9 files copied and checksummed from this exact source snapshot. No package code or installation scripts were executed.
Selected helper behavior only. Full agent compatibility and runtime safety remain unverified.
1 synthetic scenarios passed for skills/wp-wpcli-and-ops/scripts/wpcli_inspect.mjs, checked 2026-10-29. The container had no network, production data or credentials, and only read-only fixture and helper mounts.
Scores summarize observable discovery signals. Popularity and repository activity apply to the whole repository. Unknown runtime safety earns no certification.
Bounded source inspection, not a runtime security audit. This inspection does not execute code.
1 text files inspected at this exact repository snapshot. 7 files outside the inspection budget or type allowlist. Dependencies were not installed or independently audited.
Process Launch: 1 file — inspect context before use.
Absence of a pattern is not proof of safety. Permission needs and runtime behavior remain Unknown.
Confirm environment, site root and multisite scope before selecting the narrow operation. Inspect current state, preserve a usable backup and review dry-run output where supported. Keep the execution sequence and rollback instructions together for consequential maintenance.
How to judge the result
Verify the requested result through both command output and the affected site behavior. Inspect sample records after replacements, confirm scheduled events individually and retain backup provenance. Report skipped or unavailable operations rather than declaring the entire maintenance procedure successful.
