wp-sync

A GitHub Action that publishes PROJECT.md and BUILDLOG.md from any repo to a WordPress page via the REST API. Commit your docs, push, and the page updates automatically — no manual editing needed.

Built for builders and tinkerers who want to share their process, not just the finished product.

How it works

Each project repo has:

• PROJECT.md — project description and metadata (frontmatter)
• BUILDLOG.md — dated narrative entries, newest first
• .github/workflows/publish.yml — triggers on push to main when either file changes

When PROJECT.md or BUILDLOG.md are pushed, the action converts them to HTML and updates the corresponding WordPress page via the REST API.

Setup

Step 1 — Install the skill (one time)

Clone this repo and run the install script to add the /wp-sync-init command to Claude Code:

# Windows
git clone https://github.com/twostar01/wp-sync.git
cd wp-sync
.\install.ps1

# Mac/Linux
git clone https://github.com/twostar01/wp-sync.git
cd wp-sync
bash install.sh

Step 2 — Initialize any project

Open the project in Claude Code and run:

/wp-sync-init

Claude will ask a few questions, create all the required files, and walk you through the two things that require browser access: creating the WordPress page and adding the GitHub secrets.

That's it — after secrets are set, every push that changes PROJECT.md or BUILDLOG.md publishes automatically.

Build log workflow

After a working session, run from your project root:

# Windows
.\scripts\buildlog.ps1

# Mac/Linux
bash scripts/buildlog.sh

This starts a Claude session with your recent git context. Claude asks what decisions were made and why, then drafts a dated BUILDLOG.md entry. Commit it and the page updates on push.
