## What it does

The plugin connects Claude Code to WordPress through a bundled MCP connector. Inside are 16 dedicated skills. They handle traffic diagnosis and A/B testing. A built-in router picks the right workflow, while an analyst subagent runs multi-step investigations.

Nothing changes without your permission. Workflows that generate block variants or personalization rules always request explicit user approval before publishing. The toolkit reviews past test outcomes to tailor future suggestions to what actually works on the site.

Requirements include WordPress 6.9+ with Accelerate 4.1+ and Node.js 18+. The Abilities feature must be active. Without that connector running on WordPress, the agent cannot pull stats or create experiments. Connection is configured via `/accelerate-connect` using a WordPress Application Password.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

**Plugin marketplace**
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-community
```
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin install accelerate@claude-community
```

## When to use it
- pinpoint underperforming WordPress landing pages by bounce rate
- launch on-page A/B split tests directly from conversational prompts
- investigate real-time traffic spikes and attribution channels
- personalize page blocks based on visitor geography or referral source

## Example prompts
- Which landing page has the worst conversion rate right now?
- Set up an A/B test for the hero section with a new CTA.
- Investigate what caused the sudden traffic spike today.

# Accelerate AI Toolkit

Every WordPress analytics plugin shows you numbers. None of them tell you what to change, help you change it safely, and report back on whether it worked.

This toolkit closes that loop. Ask your [Accelerate](https://www.accelerateplugin.com/) site what to fix. It diagnoses the problem, recommends a test, creates it for you, and tracks the result. One conversation, from insight to action to outcome.

> Built for marketers, not developers. No dashboards. No spreadsheets. No code.

---

## What a session looks like

You open Claude Code and ask:

> *"Which landing page needs the most work?"*

The toolkit pulls your real traffic data, finds the page with the worst bounce-to-conversion ratio, explains why it's underperforming, and proposes 2-3 testable improvements. You say "set up that A/B test" and it creates the test, applies your brand's design standards, and confirms before publishing. A week later, you ask "did it work?" and get a clear verdict with the numbers behind it.

**More things you can ask:**

- *"How is my site doing this week?"* - performance snapshot, not a wall of charts
- *"What should I do first?"* - prioritised recommendations backed by your data
- *"What's driving the traffic spike right now?"* - real-time investigation
- *"Should I personalise content for visitors from Google?"* - audience analysis with a clear yes/no
- *"Which campaign is converting best this month?"* - attribution breakdown, first-touch vs last-touch

## Install

```bash
claude plugin install accelerate-ai-toolkit
```

Then connect your site:

```
/accelerate-connect
```

The command walks you through generating a WordPress Application Password and saving it securely. Run `/accelerate-status` to verify the connection, then ask your first question.

<details>
<summary><strong>Requirements</strong></summary>

- WordPress 6.9+ with [Accelerate](https://www.accelerateplugin.com/) 4.1+ (Abilities feature enabled). Accelerate bundles the WordPress connector -- no separate plugin is needed.
- [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) or [Codex CLI](https://github.com/openai/codex)
- Node.js 18+
- See [installation guide](./docs/installation.md) for full prerequisites and troubleshooting

**Note:** Some recent versions of the WordPress connector use a different address than the toolkit expects. If this affects your site, `/accelerate-connect` will detect it automatically and walk you through the fix.

</details>

<details>
<summary><strong>Install from source</strong></summary>

```bash
git clone https://github.com/humanmade/accelerate-ai-toolkit.git
cd accelerate-ai-toolkit
claude plugin install ./
```

For Codex CLI: run `codex`, open `/plugins`, choose "Install from local path".

## How it works

The toolkit is not a wrapper around your analytics API. It's 16 purpose-built skills that compose raw data into decisions:

| Workflow | What it does |
|----------|-------------|
| **Review** | Site performance snapshot: visitors, bounce rate, top pages, traffic breakdown |
| **Diagnose** | Root-cause analysis: why a page is bouncing, where traffic is mismatched |
| **Opportunities** | The front door: synthesises everything into 3 ranked next actions |
| **Optimize landing page** | Deep-dive on one page: engagement metrics, 2-3 testable improvements, A/B test hand-off |
| **Test** | Full A/B test lifecycle: plan, create, monitor, review, declare a winner |
| **Design** | Make a new on-brand version of a block or a fresh section on demand — offers to A/B test it, never forces |
| **Evolve** | Supervised multi-round optimization: generate bold versions, test, review the applied result, repeat |
| **Personalize** | Audience creation and content personalization: by referrer, geography, behaviour, device |
| **Content plan** | Proposes upcoming posts grounded in what's actually working on your site |
| **Realtime** | What's happening right now: concurrent visitors, trending content, spike investigation |
