# WordPress skill

WordPress is still the world's default CMS: wordpress.org software plus a commercial galaxy. Humans get themes and Gutenberg. Agents get REST and WP-CLI. We catalog the software, not a single host, and we distinguish .org from .com in the body copy so search engines do not merge them incorrectly. Twin Score on this directory is 83 for humans and 79 for agents, using the public rubric (interface, onboarding, human docs, collaboration, support, pricing fairness, accessibility, reliability versus API quality, MCP or tool surface, CLI, structured docs, machine auth, quotas, determinism, and skill packaging). WordPress is sold by WordPress / Automattic ecosystem, founded 2003, headquartered in Worldwide (open source). Pricing in public materials: Software is GPL; hosting (WordPress.com, WP Engine, etc.) is paid. Machine capabilities we record: API strong, MCP none, CLI basic, docs strong, auth Application passwords, cookies, plugins. This page is editorial, not a star rating scraped from users.

## When to use

Use this skill when a user asks to integrate, script, or evaluate WordPress (WordPress / Automattic ecosystem).

## When not to use

Do not claim an MCP server exists unless the capability matrix says so (current MCP level: none). Do not invent user-count ratings.
