About agent-skills

Agent Skills for WordPress Teach AI coding assistants how to build WordPress the right way. Agent Skills are portable bundles of instructions, checklists, and scripts that help AI assistants (Claude, Copilot, Codex, Cursor, etc.) understand WordPress development patterns, avoid common mistakes, and follow best practices. AI Authorship Disclosure: These skills were generated using GPT-5.2 Codex (High Reasoning) from official Gutenberg and WordPress documentation, then reviewed and edited by WordPress contributors. We tested skills with AI assistants and iterated based on results. This is v1, and skills will improve as the community uses them and contributes fixes. See docs/ai-authorship.md for details. (WordPress AI Guidelines) Why Agent Skills? AI coding assistants are powerful, but they often: Generate outdated WordPress patterns (pre-Gutenberg, pre-block themes) Miss critical security considerations in plugin development Skip proper block deprecations, causing "Invalid block" errors Ignore existing tooling in your repo Agent Skills solve this by giving AI assistants expert-level WordPress knowledge in a format they can actually use.

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
