About This Skill
The Automattic Release skill enables AI agents to manage WordPress site updates directly from the command line. It facilitates the execution of core, plugin, and theme releases while handling necessary dependencies automatically.
When to use it
- Schedule automatic security patches for WordPress core during off-peak hours.
- Deploy new versions of critical plugins or themes across multiple staging sites.
- Roll back a specific plugin version after encountering compatibility issues.
- Update all installed packages simultaneously to ensure consistent environments.
Key capabilities
- Executes
wp package releasecommands for WordPress core, plugins, and themes. - Automatically resolves and installs required dependencies before applying updates.
- Supports batch operations to update multiple sites or components in a single run.
- Integrates with standard WordPress CLI workflows for seamless automation.
Example prompts
- "Release the latest stable version of the Yoast SEO plugin on my production site."
- "Update WordPress core and all active plugins, then verify the installation status."
- "Roll back the WooCommerce plugin to version 8.0.4 due to a recent error."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure your AI agent has appropriate SSH access and sudo privileges before attempting releases, as these actions modify server files. Always test update scripts on a staging environment first to prevent unintended data loss or downtime on live sites.
