Overview

Profiling, caching, database optimization, Server-Timing

Application

Integrating wp performance into your development workflow.
Following best practices for profiling, caching, database optimization, server-timing.
Automating repetitive tasks with AI-assisted tooling.
Building production-grade applications with proper standards.
Debugging and troubleshooting common implementation issues.

Documentation

Use this skill when:

a WordPress site/page/endpoint is slow (frontend TTFB, admin, REST, WP-Cron)
you need a profiling plan and tooling recommendations (WP-CLI profile/doctor, Query Monitor, Xdebug/XHProf, APMs)
you’re optimizing DB queries, autoloaded options, object caching, cron tasks, or remote HTTP calls

This skill assumes the agent cannot use a browser UI. Prefer WP-CLI, logs, and HTTP requests.

Environment and safety: dev/staging/prod, any restrictions (no writes, no plugin installs).
How to target the install:
- WP root --path=<path>
- (multisite/site targeting) --url=<url>
The performance symptom and scope:
- which URL/REST route/admin screen
- when it happens (always vs sporadic; logged-in vs logged-out)

Recommendations

Integrate Firecrawl into application code for web search, scraping, extraction, and browser interaction

Integrate Firecrawl `/scrape` for single-page extraction from product code

Set up Firecrawl credentials and SDK in a project for the first integration
