What problem does it solve?

This Skill identifies and flags critical architectural flaws within a WordPress site that can lead to performance degradation, scalability issues, and maintenance headaches.

Core Features & Use Cases

• CPT Misuse Detection: Identifies custom post types that are dead, have very few entries, or are being used as data stores, leading to performance bottlenecks.
• Hook Abuse Analysis: Detects an excessive number of callbacks on hooks, expensive operations on early hooks ('init', 'wp_loaded'), and potential priority conflicts between plugins.
• Caching Anti-Patterns: Checks for the absence of a persistent object cache and identifies misuse of transients (e.g., permanent transients) and uncached direct database queries.
• Use Case: A site is experiencing slow load times. This Skill can pinpoint if the cause is a custom post type with tens of thousands of entries being used as a log, or if too many functions are firing on the 'init' hook, delaying page rendering.
