What it does
Analyze and port WordPress plugin behavior, custom post types, shortcodes, admin workflows, and stored data to current EmDash extension points. Use for WordPress-plugin migrations or when deciding which behavior belongs in an EmDash plugin, site schema, seed, or Astro code. Do not use for visual theme ports without plugin functionality.
Port a WordPress plugin to EmDash
Preserve the plugin's user-visible behavior and data model without translating PHP line by line. WordPress and EmDash divide responsibilities differently, so first decide whether each feature belongs in site schema, Astro code, a sandboxed plugin, or a trusted native plugin.
Load creating-plugins before implementing plugin code. Load building-emdash-site when the port changes collections, seeds, queries, or frontend templates. Those skills define the current APIs; this skill covers migration decisions.
Understand the source
Inspect the plugin source, installation behavior, database changes, hooks, REST endpoints, scheduled work, admin screens, shortcodes or blocks, frontend output, permissions, and external services. Identify behavior that users rely on separately from WordPress-specific implementation.
Record:
- required content and configuration data;
- actions that mutate or publish data;
- authorization and trust boundaries;
- background or retry behavior;
- frontend and administrator interactions;
- import, migration, and rollback needs;
- license obligations for copied assets or code.
If the source, expected behavior, or target EmDash environment is missing, report the gap instead of inventing an equivalent.
