wp-labs-standards

wp-labs-starter

A Claude Code plugin marketplace for the team. It packages our coding standards, common-task helpers, and a curated plugin setup so everyone gets the same Claude Code experience from a single git repo.

Verified against Claude Code 2.1.211.

What's inside

This repo is itself the marketplace (.claude-plugin/marketplace.json). It ships three plugins:

Plugin	What it gives you
wp-labs-standards	Coding-standard skills (general-coding-guidelines, python-style, typescript-style, css-style, sql-style, team-docs-convention) plus the common-task workflows /commit (structured commit-message format), change-review (broad review dispatcher — see review-skills map), github-pr-prepare, and github-pr-review. A PreToolUse hook also injects the matching standard deterministically by file type on every edit (see Deterministic standards).
wp-labs-sdlc v0.3	The scaffolding-sdlc skill with two modes: repo mode bootstraps a repo's full SDLC (runnable starter app, Makefile, pre-commit hook, GitHub Actions CI/security/Claude-PR-automation, Dependabot, PR-status labels, PR auto-rebase, optional hosting with Docker + Azure Bicep); --setup-claude mode configures the global ~/.claude/ environment on a fresh machine (settings, plugins, CLAUDE.md, glob-scoped coding rules). See Setting up a new machine.
wp-labs-superpowers	A fork of superpowers with our docs-path convention baked in. Enabled by default (the stock superpowers@claude-plugins-official is disabled to avoid duplicate skill names). See plugins/wp-labs-superpowers/FORK.md.

We also use a curated set of external plugins (see Recommended setup).

Setting up a new machine

The fastest path on a fresh machine or new Claude Code install:

git clone https://github.com/cssherry-wp/wp-labs-starter.git
cd wp-labs-starter
bash plugins/wp-labs-sdlc/skills/scaffolding-sdlc/scripts/setup-claude.sh

This writes ~/.claude/settings.json (marketplaces + plugins), ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md (commit policy, output style rules), and ~/.claude/rules/ (glob-scoped coding guidelines). Restart Claude Code — it auto-installs any plugin listed in enabledPlugins on first launch.

Alternatively, once Claude Code is running, invoke the skill:

/scaffolding-sdlc --setup-claude

See docs/setting-up-claude-environment.md for full details.

Quick start (individual)

To add the marketplace and install manually:

/plugin marketplace add cssherry-wp/wp-labs-starter
/plugin install wp-labs-standards@wp-labs-starter
/plugin install wp-labs-sdlc@wp-labs-starter
/plugin install wp-labs-superpowers@wp-labs-starter

Then the external plugins:

/plugin install code-review@claude-plugins-official
/plugin install code-simplifier@claude-plugins-official
/plugin install security-guidance@claude-plugins-official
/plugin install explanatory-output-style@claude-plugins-official
/plugin install frontend-design@claude-plugins-official
/plugin install typescript-lsp@claude-plugins-official
/plugin install chrome-devtools-mcp@claude-plugins-official
/plugin install context7@claude-plugins-official
/plugin install claude-md-management@claude-plugins-official
/plugin install ralph-loop@claude-plugins-official
/plugin install playwright@claude-plugins-official
/plugin marketplace add lackeyjb/playwright-skill
/plugin install playwright-skill@playwright-skill
/plugin marketplace add DietrichGebert/ponytail
/plugin install ponytail@ponytail

Browse or manage everything anytime with /plugin.

Recommended setup

The full recommended config lives in: plugins/wp-labs-sdlc/skills/scaffolding-sdlc/templates/claude/settings.json

This is the single source of truth for marketplaces, enabledPlugins, the ponytail status-line badge, the Stop hook, and team-wide Claude settings. The --setup-claude mode and the repo scaffold both deep-merge from this file.

Default-enabled

wp-labs-standards, wp-labs-sdlc, wp-labs-superpowers (fork), ponytail, playwright-skill, code-review, code-simplifier, security-guidance, explanatory-output-style, frontend-design, typescript-lsp, chrome-devtools-mcp, context7, claude-md-management, ralph-loop, playwright.

superpowers@claude-plugins-official is explicitly disabled — the fork (wp-labs-superpowers) replaces it. Never enable both (duplicate skill names).
