The agent
An agent that works in primitives — and shows its work.
WPVibe doesn’t hide WordPress behind a clever wrapper. It hands your AI the same building blocks a developer uses, with tested playbooks and guardrails on top.
The problem with most AI WordPress tools
They’re black boxes built around one feature.
Most AI builders wrap a single workflow — usually page building — in an opaque UI. You can’t see what they did, you can’t reach the rest of your site, and you can’t take the result anywhere. When the model guesses wrong, you have no way to audit it. WPVibe takes the opposite stance: give the agent real, inspectable access to WordPress, and make every action explainable.
Primitives, not a walled garden
We expose the building blocks, then let the model compose them.
A handful of sharp, well-documented primitives beats a hundred narrow features. Give the agent these, and it can do almost anything in WordPress — including things we never explicitly built for.
rest_api
The full WordPress REST API — posts, pages, media, users, taxonomies, and any plugin that registers routes.
run_wp_cli
40+ WP-CLI commands for plugins, themes, options, users, and search-replace — emulated in PHP, no binary required.
run_ability
The WordPress Abilities API — discover and run capabilities plugins expose, from WPForms to AIOSEO.
upload_media
Stock-photo search and direct upload into the media library, with the full image pipeline and alt text.
draft theme tools
Read, write, and edit theme files in a sandboxed draft — preview on a private URL, publish when ready.
site_info · get_page_html
Inspect site health, plugins, and PHP — and read the rendered HTML of any page to verify the result.
How we do themes
Classic PHP + Tailwind — the code AI writes best.
We deliberately don’t make the agent assemble fragile nested block markup. In our testing, models produce dramatically cleaner, more predictable output when they write plain classic templates styled with Tailwind utility classes. It’s readable, diffable, and easy to verify — for the AI and for you.
- One source of truth for design tokens in theme.css — colors, fonts, and radii the agent reuses everywhere.
- Every edit lands in an isolated draft. Your live site is never touched until you say publish.
- The agent registers editable fields as it builds, so the site stays editable by humans afterward.

Looks great — publish it.
Tested playbooks, read on every job
Generate and verify — not generate and pray.
Before it starts a task, the agent loads the matching skill — a focused, tested playbook for that exact job, from building a SeedProd page to running an SEO audit. After it makes a change, it reads the rendered result back to confirm the work actually landed. The skills are documented and consistent, so the agent follows proven patterns instead of improvising.
The opposite of a black box.
Auditable
Every action runs through documented tools and is audit-logged. You can always see what the agent did and why.
Predictable
Tested skills and a default-deny permission model mean the agent follows the same proven rules every time.
Portable
It’s standard WordPress underneath — native posts, meta, and theme files. Nothing locks you in.
