System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
WordPress Core development tasks in the wordpress-develop codebase often lack a clear, surface-aware workflow, causing misrouting to Gutenberg or plugins and slowing contributor progress. This skill provides a structured, repo-aware approach that guides you from nearest implementation to core workflow, with an emphasis on proper routing, validation, and contributor context.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Repo-aware routing: locate owning Core surface (wp-admin, wp-includes, bootstrap internals, REST API) and route work to the correct area.
- Standardized validation: apply WordPress Core commands and testing surfaces (PHPUnit, PHPCS, PHPStan, Playwright as needed) to validate changes with minimal risk.
- Contributor-ready workflow: align with Trac tickets and contribute context for patch reviews and integration.
- Use Case: debugging a failing Core test in wordpress-develop and preparing a minimal, reviewer-friendly patch with nearby tests.
Quick Start
Review the wordpress-core-development workflow in wordpress-develop, locate the nearest implementation or test, and follow the standard Core validation steps.
