Version 0.7.0 of the experimental AI plugin adds content classification, bulk alt text generation, and hooks for changing system instructions before results are saved. Here is what holds up, what to watch on a slow host, and what 0.8.0 has queued.
Row-wise iteration is what makes most Pandas code slow. This walks through profiling with %timeit and memory_usage, replacing iterrows with vectorized operations, cutting memory with category types, and when to move to Polars or DuckDB instead.
The WordPress documentation team has triaged close to 800 GitHub issues and closed more than 200. Most of the remaining work sits with the DevHub parser and the theme and plugin handbooks, which is also where outside contributors are most useful.
WordPress 7.0 ships the MCP adapter as a separate plugin and leans on reversible decisions while contributor time is short. What that changes for dependency management, plus how to register a custom ability.
Anthropic’s subscription ban pushed me off Claude for OpenClaw. Here is the OpenRouter setup I use with Kimi-K2.5, what it costs, where it runs slower, and the GDPR problem with hosted weights.
Part two of the Fernao build log: the ICS calendar feed needed five minutes to generate a schedule, so I moved to the Google Calendar API and got it down to twenty seconds. The new Task Breaker module splits oversized tasks into 20-minute subtasks.
Part 2 on summarizing a 200,000-word handbook: validating K-means clusters with UMAP and silhouette scores, picking the chunk nearest each centroid, and where the final reduce step still drops topics.
The Presence API feature plugin gives the WordPress admin real-time awareness of who is editing what, using a dedicated ephemeral table on a 60-second TTL instead of hammering wp_options. Here is what ships with it, and where it still gets confused.
The WordPress 7.0 Beta is live for Business and Commerce plans, and the change worth having is a one-click Deactivate button on the fatal error screen, instead of an SFTP session or a recovery mode email that never arrives.
Twenty-three pipeline failures in six weeks, none of them caused by my code. This is how I replaced GPT-4 with a seeded Qwen2.5 on Ollama, plus the GitHub Actions caching and Pydantic validation details that made it stick.
