Diagnose WordPress Performance Safely
Slow WordPress sites need careful measurement before changes. This skill guides Claude, Codex, and Claude Code through backend-only profiling, bottleneck analysis, and safe verification.
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "wp-performance" from https://skillstore.io/skills/automattic-wp-performance.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/automattic-wp-performance/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Using "wp-performance". A WordPress REST endpoint has high TTFB on staging.
Expected outcome:
Using "wp-performance". The site has many autoloaded options and slow admin pages.
Expected outcome:
Using "wp-performance". A proposed cache change may affect production traffic.
Expected outcome:
The skill recommends staging validation, explicit cache invalidation checks, and avoiding cache flushes during traffic unless approved.
Static analysis flagged many command, filesystem, network, and reconnaissance patterns, but review found they are expected WordPress performance diagnostics and documentation examples. The script runs WP-CLI with argument arrays rather than shell interpolation, and file checks are limited to plugin and cache drop-in presence under the supplied WordPress path. No prompt injection, credential exfiltration, or malicious intent was found.

Create a safe measurement plan for TTFB, WP-CLI profiling, and logs before changing code.
Identify whether database queries, autoloaded options, object cache misses, cron, or HTTP calls dominate latency.
Repeat the same measurements after a change and check that behavior and logs remain clean.
Use the wp-performance skill to diagnose why this WordPress page is slow. I can provide the URL, environment, and WP path.
Use the wp-performance skill to make a backend-only profiling plan for a WordPress site. Do not run write operations unless I approve them.
Use the wp-performance skill to interpret my wp doctor, wp profile, and perf_inspect output. Identify the most likely bottleneck and next safe step.
Use the wp-performance skill to verify this WordPress performance fix. Compare baseline and after measurements, note risks, and recommend rollout steps.
