Automation with WP-CLI

Use this file when turning an ops sequence into a repeatable script or CI job.

wp-cli.yml

If the repo uses wp-cli.yml, use it to standardize:

• path: (WordPress root)
• url: (default site)
• PHP settings (memory limits)

Shell scripting

Guardrails for scripts:

• set -euo pipefail
• print commands before running them
• make destructive operations require an explicit flag (e.g. --apply)

CI jobs

Prefer CI jobs that are read-only by default:

• wp core version
• wp plugin list
• wp theme list

Only enable write operations in dedicated deploy/maintenance workflows.
