WordPress has announced the launch of wp-playground, a new AI agent skill designed to run WordPress via the Playground CLI.

On ‘What the Playground skill does’, WordPress’ Brett McSherry says, “When launched, the skill starts WordPress and detects where the current code should live inside a WordPress install. For example, it can mount a plugin into wp-content/plugins or a theme into wp-content/themes by recognizing common file signatures (such as plugin headers or a theme’s style.css). This helps agents move from “generated code” to “running site” with fewer manual steps.”

This release also comes with a new home for this kind of work: https://github.com/WordPress/agent-skills.
