Research direction

No files or tests are named; start by reviewing the listed existing abilities and the WordPress admin tasks suggested in the issue. Post each proposed ability as a comment using the three requested fields: user wording, WordPress data or action, and why it matters.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

hackathon writers

Goal

Think about what WordPress site admins do every day and come up with new use cases for the AI assistant that aren't on our current list.

How to Think About It

  • What do you do in wp-admin that's tedious or repetitive?
  • What questions do you ask yourself while managing a site?
  • What would a hosting company support agent want to check quickly?
  • What tasks require navigating through multiple admin screens?

Format

For each idea, describe:

  1. What the user would say (natural language)
  2. What should happen (what WordPress data/action is involved)
  3. Why it matters (how often, how painful without AI)

Examples of Existing Abilities

  • "my site is throwing errors" → reads debug.log, identifies patterns
  • "flush the cache" → clears object cache
  • "list plugins" → shows all plugins with status

What We Already Have

14 abilities: error-log-read, cache-flush, db-optimize, plugin-list, plugin-activate, plugin-deactivate, site-health, cron-list, transient-flush, rewrite-flush, revision-cleanup, core/get-site-info, core/get-environment-info

Post your ideas as comments. The best ones become new ability issues!
