Quick brief

WP Abilities API is a specialist skill for WordPress builders working with wp_register_ability, wp_register_ability_category, /wp-json/wp-abilities/v1/*, and @wordpress/abilities. It focuses on one narrow job: helping teams define abilities cleanly and expose them to clients without falling back to generic WordPress advice.

How it works

What this skill actually does

Best for

  • registering WordPress abilities and categories in PHP
  • debugging REST exposure and missing client visibility
  • implementing permission-aware ability checks in JavaScript clients

Install notes

Install the skill in an OpenClaw workspace that has access to your WordPress plugin, theme, or core checkout. It is most useful in environments targeting WordPress 6.9+ and may also rely on WP-CLI for validation workflows.
