What problem does it solve?

This Skill consolidates best practices for WordPress Gutenberg block development, providing triage workflows, scaffolding guidance, and a standardized process to manage block lifecycles from creation to deprecation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Triage & discovery: Detect WordPress block projects within a repo and identify root block directories.
  • Block scaffolding: Use scaffolding tools like @wordpress/create-block to rapidly generate modern blocks and ensure apiVersion 3 compatibility.
  • Registration & rendering guidance: Align block metadata, dynamic rendering strategies, and deprecation/migration plans across plugins/themes.
  • Use Case: When starting a new block, run triage to locate the block root, scaffold a new block, and register it with metadata-driven registration.

Quick Start

Run the triage script to locate WordPress block projects:

  • node skills/wp-block-development/scripts/detect_wp_project.mjs Then list blocks in the discovered project:
  • node skills/wp-block-development/scripts/list_blocks.mjs
