Cross-team collaboration

Continue identifying ways the AI team can collaborate with other Make Teams to bring AI-powered functionality and assistance to their needs.  Examples could be (1) assisting the PluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website. They can extend functionality or add new features to your WordPress websites. WordPress plugins are written in the PHP programming language and integrate seamlessly with WordPress. These can be free in the WordPress.org Plugin Directory https://wordpress.org/plugins/ or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party Review Team with AI-based reviews in tandem with their human-based reviews, (2) assisting the CoreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. Team (and others) with triaging tickets in their backlog.

Checkin on prior next steps

• Decide GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers. Public repositories are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription. GitHub introduced the concept of the ‘pull request’ where code changes done in branches by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged be the repository owner. https://github.com/ Repo Structure
  Async discussion this week to determine whether to use a monorepo or split repositories for AI-related work.
  Target: Clarity by mid-next week (June 19–20).
• Extract ai-services into Shared PHPPHP PHP (recursive acronym for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) is a widely-used open source general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for web development and can be embedded into HTML. https://www.php.net/manual/en/preface.php. Package
  @flixos90 shared an early version. Action needed to extract and formalize this for community use.
• Prototype Showcase Plugin
  A new plugin is planned to demonstrate how LLM client abstraction, tool registration, and MCP integration work together. Contributors welcome.
• Document AI Opportunity Areas
  @isotropic suggested publishing a public list of cross-team AI opportunities (e.g. Docs, Design, Triage).
  Goal: Help Make teams self-organize without AI team bottlenecks.
• Encourage Make Team Experiments
  Encourage publishing early use cases and learnings (e.g., Docs experiments from @estelaris) on Make/Core or respective team blogs.
• Explore RAG + Vector Support Path
  Initial interest flagged around integrating MySQLMySQL MySQL is a relational database management system. A database is a structured collection of data where content, configuration and other options are stored. https://www.mysql.com/. 9 vector types and reviving the wpvdb prototype. More research needed.
• Continue Triaging AI in Contributor Workflows
  Discussion to continue on how to balance static analysis tools (e.g., PHPStan) with LLM-based systems like dosu.dev.

Next Steps

• Goals for the next few weeks (updates on Features/Abilities APIAbilities API A core WordPress API (introduced in 6.9) that creates a central registry of capabilities, making WordPress functions discoverable and accessible to AI agents, automation tools, and developers. Transforms WordPress from isolated functions into a unified system. and MCP)
