What This Skill Does

A backend-only agent skill for diagnosing and fixing WordPress performance problems. Covers profiling with WP-CLI (profile/doctor), database query optimization, autoloaded options, object caching, cron scheduling, and remote HTTP call behavior. Works without a browser using CLI tools, REST headers, and log inspection. Instead of guessing at bottlenecks or clicking through browser-based profilers, this skill gives a structured, reproducible workflow that works over SSH or in CI without a UI.

When to use it

  • Working with wp performance functionality
  • Implementing wp performance features
  • Debugging wp performance related issues
