What problem does it solve?

This skill guides the creation and review of a WordPress plugin bootstrap entry-point, ensuring the main file includes a valid header, ABSPATH guard, proper autoload, activation hooks, and safe initialization patterns.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Validates the presence of a plugin bootstrap file at the root with correct header fields (Plugin Name, Version, Requires PHP, Requires at least, Requires Plugins) and top-level safeguards.
• Enforces a clean bootstrap lifecycle: guard clauses, constant definitions, composer/autoload fallback, and a plugins_loaded-first initialization in a small, testable footprint.
• Use cases include scaffolding a new plugin or auditing PRs to confirm the bootstrap file adheres to WordPress best practices and modern PHP standards.

Quick Start

Create or review the plugin bootstrap at the root and verify the header, ABSPATH guard, autoload, and activation hook wiring follow WordPress best practices.
