AI Experiments 0.4.0 puts prompt-based image generation in the Block Editor and the Media Library, and adds a Generate Review Notes pass for accessibility and readability. It also points at the WordPress AI rename in 0.5.0.
Running OpenClaw on bare metal, skipping the system prompt, and handing it admin API keys are the three setups that go wrong most. What to do instead, with a docker-compose file and a scoped IAM policy.
AI-generated code ships fast and then stalls, usually around month three, when nobody can safely change the file it all lives in. A WooCommerce example shows the monolith version next to the decoupled one.
Classic RAG runs one retrieval pass and stays predictable. Agentic RAG keeps searching until it has enough evidence, and pays for it in latency and tokens. How I pick between them, and what breaks when a loop has no budget.
WordPress is featuring eight plugins every two weeks, picked from those with under 10,000 installs and less than a year in the directory. What the criteria check, and the code cleanup worth doing first.
Demo agents fall over in production because errors compound across steps and prompts break when the business process changes. Structured output, LLM-as-a-judge evals and OKR alignment are what get a prototype across.
CVE-2026-3589 is a CSRF flaw in the WooCommerce Store API, affecting versions 5.4 to 10.5.2, that can be used to create admin accounts through batch requests. How the flaw works, and how to check your own version with WP-CLI or a small PHP snippet.
Traditional RAG chunking strips the context that makes a chunk mean anything. Contextual retrieval fixes that by prepending a one-sentence summary situating each chunk in its parent document, and prompt caching keeps the ingestion cost down.
No model is interpretable in the abstract. Interpretability is a set of methods for answering a question, and in production that question is usually diagnosis, validation or discovery. Includes a way to store explanation data in WordPress meta and transients.
WordPress 7.0 adds a programmatic watch() to the Interactivity API and populates state.url on the server, so the guard code around that first undefined value can go. Also covers the deprecated core/router navigation properties and what to use instead.
