WordPress.org plugin publishing,
from the terminal.

Pressship validates, packages, submits, releases, inspects, and demos WordPress.org plugins — with review, SVN, and local setup steps kept explicit while the chores stay quiet.

Workflow

One predictable path

Run the full flow with publish, or step into any phase explicitly.

  1. 01

    Inspect

    Read local plugin metadata and WordPress.org review state at a glance.

    npx pressship info ./my-plugin
  2. 02

    Package

    Validate readme.txt, run Plugin Check, build an installable zip.

    npx pressship pack ./my-plugin
  3. 03

    Publish

    Route to new submission, pending reupload, or SVN release with setup checks.

    npx pressship publish ./my-plugin
  4. 04

    Demo

    Boot the plugin in WordPress Playground using its own requirements.

    npx pressship demo ./my-plugin
What you get

Designed for plugin authors who ship often

Less yak-shaving around WordPress.org. More time on the plugin itself.

Validates before it uploads

Readme parsing, WordPress.org validator, and Plugin Check all run locally before anything leaves your machine.

Smart publish routing

Detects new submissions, pending reuploads, and approved SVN releases automatically.

SVN setup helper

For get and release flows, Pressship detects missing Subversion and offers the right install path for your OS.

Zero-setup Plugin Check

Managed WordPress and Plugin Check environment. No manual WP-CLI wiring.

Playground demos

Open any local plugin path or hosted slug in WordPress Playground for instant testing.

Agent skill included

Drop-in publishing skill keeps automated workflows dry-run-first and reviewable.

Commands

A focused command set

Every command maps to a plugin author task. No nested config, no hidden global state.
