What it does
Wp Env is an agent skill from WordPress/agent-skills. Use when setting up, configuring, or troubleshooting local WordPress development environments with @wordpress/env (wp-env).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Containers. It works with WordPress and Docker. The repository describes itself as: Expert-level WordPress knowledge for AI coding assistants - blocks, themes, plugins, and best practices.
When your agent uses it
- Troubleshooting local WordPress development environments with @wordpress/env (wp-env)
- Mentions of wp-env
- Local WordPress development
- Docker-based WordPress
Example prompts
- “/wp-env”
Requirements
- Node.js
- Docker
- Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Targets WordPress 7.0+ (PHP 7.4.0+). Requires Docker and Node.js 18.12+.
Workflow steps
8 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Install wp-env
- Start the environment
- Auto-detection (no config file)
- Configure with .wp-env.json
- Run commands in containers
- Manage the environment
- Xdebug setup
- Multisite
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3cf7f6f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
npmnpxdockernode
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
downloads.wordpress.org
Also links to:
developer.wordpress.orggithub.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Compatibility
Targets WordPress 7.0+ (PHP 7.4.0+). Requires Docker and Node.js 18.12+.
From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Context cost
Wp Env loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 70 tokens; SKILL.md has 743 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 743 words (~2,199 tokens).
“Zero-config, Docker-based local WordPress development environment for plugins, themes, and core.”
