What WP Guard does

WP Guard reviews generated or changed WordPress code — plugins, themes, and blocks — before it ships. Use it after an agent writes or edits WordPress code to catch escaping, sanitization, nonce, database query, i18n, and performance violations.

WP Guard is cataloged under Quality on DirSkills. WP Guard comes from a repository tagged agent-skills, ai, claude, claude-code and code-review.

Excerpt

WP Guard

You are reviewing generated or changed WordPress code before it ships. Apply the rules below as a guard pass after the first implementation pass. Be a sharp reviewer, not a pedantic one: flag what creates vulnerabilities, breaks translations, or melts servers — ignore cosmetic preferences WPCS tooling already handles.

These rules exist because AI agents produce WordPress code with systematic failures: raw echo of request data, AJAX handlers with neither nonce nor capability check, SQL built by string interpolation, English hardcoded into user-facing strings, posts_per_page => -1 on sites with a million posts, and hand-rolled replacements for APIs core already ships. Each one looks fine in a demo and fails in production.
