+ ## Plugin Naming Rules (Guideline 17 + Plugin Check Namer)
2
+
3
+ Sources: [Plugin Header Requirements](https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/plugin-basics/header-requirements/#header-fields) · [Detailed Plugin Guidelines §17](https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-org/detailed-plugin-guidelines/) · Plugin Check `Plugin_Header_Fields_Check`, `Trademarks_Check`, and AI Namer prompts.
4
+
5
+ ### Technical Name Requirements
6
+
7
+ | Rule | Details | Error Code |
8
+ |------|---------|------------|
9
+ | Must not use placeholder names | `"Plugin Name"` or `"My Basics Plugin"` are rejected | `plugin_header_invalid_plugin_name` |
10
+ | Minimum 5 alphanumeric characters | Name must contain at least 5 latin letters (a–Z) or digits | `plugin_header_unsupported_plugin_name` (new plugins only) |
11
+ | Name must exist in readme | `=== Plugin Name ===` header required and must be valid | `invalid_plugin_name` / `empty_plugin_name` |
12
+ | Name must match across files | Readme and plugin header name must match (case/entity-decoded) | `mismatched_plugin_name` (warning) |
13
+
14
+ **Slug rules:** lowercase, hyphens only, max 50 characters, derived from display name.
15
+
16
+ ### Naming Quality Rules (AI Namer)
17
+
18
+ **1. No generic names**
19
+ Names must be specific enough to distinguish the plugin from ~60,000 others.
20
+ - Rejected: "Shipping", "Ecommerce Tracker", "SEO Plugin"
21
+ - Accepted: "ShipGlex Shipping", "Shipping Tracker for UPS"
22
+ - Exception: invented/original terms are allowed if placed at the **beginning** of the name
23
+
24
+ **2. Name must relate to plugin function**
25
+ The display name must correlate with what the plugin actually does. Exception: original invented terms.
26
+
27
+ **3. No keyword stuffing**
28
+ Unnaturally repeating keywords in the name for SEO purposes is not allowed.
29
+
30
+ **4. No names too similar to existing plugins**
31
+ Checked against the WordPress.org Plugin Directory. If similar, suggest a distinctive term (author name, brand, or crafted term) at the beginning.
32
+
33
+ **5. Trademark/project name usage rules**
34
+ Trademarks and project names are allowed **only** after connectors like `for`, `with`, `using`, or `and`:
35
+ - ✅ `"My Plugin for WooCommerce"` — trademark after "for", no affiliation implied
36
+ - ✅ `"Pricing Rates for WooCommerce"` — OK
37
+ - ❌ `"WooCommerce Pricing Rates"` — starts with trademark, implies affiliation
38
+ - ❌ `"Nicedev Paypal for WooCommerce"` — PayPal is not after a no-affiliation structure; correct form: `"Nicedev Payment Gateway with PayPal for WooCommerce"`
39
+ - ❌ `"PricingPress"` — portmanteau using `-Press` (WordPress trademark)
40
+ - Check for portmanteaus: names blending a trademark (e.g., `-Press`, `Woo-`) are not allowed
41
+
42
+ **6. Banned and discouraged terms**
43
+
44
+ Banned/discouraged terms cannot appear **anywhere** in the name — not even after `for`/`with`.
45
+
46
+ #### Banned Terms (hard block)
47
+
48
+ | Term | Reason |
49
+ |------|--------|
50
+ | Facebook, FB, fbook, Whatsapp, WA, Instagram, Insta, Gram, INS, Threads, Oculus | Meta legal request: no use in name, slug, or banners |
51
+ | WordPress, wordpess, wpress | WordPress trademark; redundant in the WP.org directory |
52
+ | WP (as standalone/redundant, e.g., "for WP") | Same as WordPress — redundant in context |
53
+ | Trustpilot | Direct request from trademark holder |
54
+ | Binance Pay | Direct request from trademark holder |
55
+
56
+ #### Discouraged Terms (must be removed)
57
+
58
+ | Term | Reason |
59
+ |------|--------|
60
+ | plugin (when redundant, e.g., "SEO Plugin") | Redundant; forbidden as first word |
61
+ | best, #1, First, Perfect, The most | Superlatives / unverifiable comparative claims |
62
+ | free (when redundant, e.g., "(free)") | All directory plugins are free — redundant |
63
+ | WP, W P (at beginning or end, referring to WordPress) | WordPress abbreviation — redundant |
64
+ | Gutenberg, gberg, guten, berg | Creates confusion; block editor is the current name |
65
+
66
+ ### Trademark Slug List (static check — `Trademarks_Check`)
67
+
68
+ The following slugs are statically blocked. Terms ending in `-` cannot **begin** a slug; terms without `-` cannot appear **anywhere** in the slug. `woocommerce` (no dash) is allowed only as `for-woocommerce`, `with-woocommerce`, `using-woocommerce`, or `and-woocommerce`.

+
90
+ **Portmanteaus also blocked:** any slug starting with `woo` (case-insensitive) — e.g., `woopress`, `wooland`.
91
+
92
+ ### Naming Examples
93
+
94
+ | Plugin Name | Verdict | Reason |
95
+ |-------------|---------|--------|
96
+ | `Shipping` | ❌ | Too generic |
97
+ | `Ecommerce Tracker` | ❌ | Too generic, no context |
98
+ | `Shipping Tracker for UPS` | ✅ | Descriptive + context |
99
+ | `ShipGlex Shipping` | ✅ | Invented term at beginning |
100
+ | `WooCommerce Pricing Rates` | ❌ | Starts with trademark |
101
+ | `Pricing Rates for WooCommerce` | ✅ | Trademark after "for" |
102
+ | `PricingPress` | ❌ | `-Press` portmanteau |
103
+ | `PRT Text editor for WP` | ❌ | WP is banned/redundant; correct: `PRT Text editor` |
104
+ | `Nicedev Paypal for WooCommerce` | ❌ | PayPal not after no-affiliation structure |
105
+ | `Nicedev Payment Gateway with PayPal for WooCommerce` | ✅ | Correct structure |
106
+ | `Best SEO Plugin for WordPress` | ❌ | Superlative + banned terms |
107
+ | `My Free Slider` | ❌ | "free" is redundant/discouraged |
108
+
109

  ## Notes for Agents
36
52
  - When modifying commands, ensure you update the corresponding JSDoc comments.
37
53
  - The `src/lib/installer.ts` file is critical as it handles the file copying logic.
38
54
  - The `src/lib/triage-mapper.ts` file contains logic for mapping project detection results to configuration options.
39
- - The `vendor` directory is gitignored and populated via submodule or script.
55
+ - The `src/lib/api.ts` file exposes the programmatic API all changes to command logic should flow through to the API.
56
+ - The `vendor` directory is gitignored and populated via submodule or script.
57
+ - The `.github/skills/` directory contains 14 WordPress skills following the AgentSkills.io spec.
58
+ - CI runs on every push: lint, typecheck, test, build. No publish workflow (manual npm publish only).

+ ## Pi Extension (Package)
61
+ - `pi.extensions`: `./extensions/wp-agent-kit` — registers WordPress agent tools
62
+ - `pi.skills`: `./.github/skills` — 14 WordPress skills discoverable by Pi

- 1. Run project triage:
14
- - `node .github/skills/wp-project-triage/scripts/detect_wp_project.mjs`
15
- 2. If routing is unclear, use the router decision tree:
16
- - `.github/skills/wordpress-router/references/decision-tree.md`
17
- 3. Update repo-specific guidance:
18
- - Choose the project prefix based on existing code (functions/classes/constants).
19
- - Confirm folder structure (single-file plugin vs `includes/`, blocks, theme, full site).
20
- - Confirm target WordPress/PHP versions if relevant.
13
+ 1. **Run project triage** to classify the codebase:
14
+ ```bash
15
+ node .github/skills/wp-project-triage/scripts/detect_wp_project.mjs
16
+ ```
17
+ This outputs a JSON report with project kind, signals, and tooling.

+
19
+ 2. **Route to the right skill**:
20
+ - If routing is unclear, consult `.github/skills/wordpress-router/references/decision-tree.md`
21
+ - For plugins: `wp-plugin-development`
22
+ - For block themes: `wp-block-themes`
23
+ - For Gutenberg blocks: `wp-block-development`
24
+ - For REST API work: `wp-rest-api`
25
+ - For WP-CLI operations: `wp-wpcli-and-ops`
26
+
27
+ 3. **Update repo-specific guidance** based on triage results:
28
+ - Confirm the project prefix (functions, classes, constants)
29
+ - Confirm the folder structure (single-file plugin, `includes/`, blocks, theme, full site)
30
+ - Confirm target WordPress and PHP versions

  ## Security Baseline
23
64
 
24
- - Sanitize input early, escape output late.
25
- - Use nonces for state-changing requests.
26
- - Enforce capabilities for privileged actions.
65
+ - **Sanitize Early**: Validate and sanitize all user input (`sanitize_text_field`, `sanitize_email`, etc.)
66
+ - **Escape Late**: Escape all output (`esc_html`, `esc_attr`, `esc_url`, `wp_kses`)
67
+ - **Use Nonces**: All state-changing requests must include nonce verification (`wp_nonce_field`, `check_admin_referer`)
68
+ - **Check Capabilities**: Privileged actions require capability checks (`current_user_can`)
69
+ - **Validate AJAX/REST**: Use `permission_callback` for REST endpoints and capability checks for AJAX handlers
