WP DevContext

Inspect your WordPress environment and export selected technical context—including plugins, themes, post types, taxonomies, and ACF field definitions—as Markdown or JSON for developers and AI coding assistants.

In development Free Version 0.4.0

WP DevContext

Give developers and AI coding assistants the technical context they need to understand your WordPress site.

WP DevContext is a lightweight WordPress development utility that inspects your site’s technical environment and exports selected configuration details in clean, structured formats. It helps developers provide better context when debugging issues, maintaining existing websites, developing plugins or themes, and working with AI coding assistants.

Instead of manually collecting information from WordPress settings, hosting dashboards, plugin screens, and custom field configurations, WP DevContext brings relevant technical details together in one export.

Features

WordPress Environment Inspection

Collect useful technical information about your PHP environment, hosting software, database, server capabilities, upload limits, and other relevant configuration details.

WordPress Core and Site Configuration

Inspect your WordPress version, site configuration, permalink structure, environment type, and debugging settings.

Plugin Inventory

Export information about installed plugins, including their names, versions, activation status, and other available metadata.

Theme Inventory

Inspect installed themes, identify the active theme, and review theme versions and parent–child relationships.

Custom Post Types and Taxonomies

Document registered post types and taxonomies, including their labels, visibility settings, supported features, relationships, and other registration details.

Advanced Custom Fields (ACF)

Export ACF field group definitions, location rules, field names, keys, types, and supported field-specific settings. Nested field structures, such as Repeaters, can provide useful context for understanding custom data models.

WP DevContext exports field definitions rather than saved field values or default field values.

Selectable Modules and Presets

Choose the technical context relevant to your task instead of exporting everything. Use development-focused presets or select individual modules as needed.

Markdown and JSON Exports

Generate two formats for different workflows:

  • Markdown: Human-readable technical documentation that is convenient to review, share, or include in an AI coding prompt.
  • JSON: Structured technical data suitable for automated processing, tooling, and other development workflows.

Reports include module summaries and relevant warnings to help you understand what was collected.

Designed for Development Workflows

WP DevContext is useful when you are:

  • Asking an AI coding assistant to modify an existing WordPress plugin or theme.
  • Troubleshooting compatibility or configuration issues.
  • Documenting an unfamiliar WordPress installation.
  • Understanding custom post types, taxonomies, and ACF field structures.
  • Preparing technical context for maintenance, refactoring, or development work.

Privacy-Conscious by Design

WP DevContext is designed to collect technical context rather than website content or user records. It excludes saved ACF field values and default field values from its ACF export.

The plugin is designed for read-only inspection, with permission checks and nonce verification for its administrative actions. Reports are delivered as downloads rather than intentionally saved as persistent report files on the server.

Always review an exported report before sharing it, especially when it contains information about a production environment or proprietary plugins.

Simple, Focused, and Developer-Friendly

WP DevContext does not attempt to replace your IDE, debugging tools, or AI assistant. Its purpose is to make the technical context of your WordPress installation easier to collect and communicate.

Inspect your site. Select the context you need. Export it. Build with better information.
