Skill Separation

The setup skill stays on your local machine — it’s only for deployment. The WordPress and Data Machine skills get copied to the OpenClaw agent on your VPS.

Components

  • WordPress — Pre-configured for AI management
  • OpenClaw — AI agent framework
  • Data Machine — Self-scheduling execution layer (optional)
  • Agent Skills — 13 WordPress development skills

With or Without Data Machine

Include Data Machine (default) when:

  • Running a content site (blog, news, media)
  • You want automated content pipelines
  • Agent should orchestrate its own workflows

Skip Data Machine when:

  • Development-focused setup
  • Agent only needs to respond when prompted
  • No recurring content workflows
