The single source for what a command does with each exit code of wp-config.mjs validate, and the named policy that decides what exit 3 (no manifest) means for each command — stop, adopt-or-stop, adopt-or-bare-wp, bare-wp-fallback, scaffold or register. Use when writing or changing the manifest-validation prologue of a command, deciding what a command does on a site with no .wp-create.json, or checking that the commands agree.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# The manifest gate: exit codes and exit-3 policies

Every command that reads `.wp-create.json` opens with the same validation block, run through
`wp-config.mjs validate`. The block is byte-identical in every command
(`tests/checks/wp-config-gate.sh` diffs it) and its table says what each exit code means. This
skill owns the rest: the one place where **exit `3`** (no manifest) is given a meaning per
command, so eight commands do not each carry their own paragraph that can drift from the others.

A command does not copy a policy. Right after the block it names one in a single line:

```
**Exit `3` policy:** `bare-wp-fallback` — read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/wp-manifest-gate/SKILL.md`.
```

Read that file when the validator exits `3`, not before: on exits `0`, `1` and `2` the block's
own table is the whole answer.

## Exit codes of `validate`

| Exit | Meaning | Every command |
|---|---|---|
| `0` | valid | continue |
| `1` | invalid, or the generated context block disagrees with the manifest | stop and report the message verbatim |
| `2` | an older manifest can migrate | run `wp-config.mjs migrate '${PROJECT_PATH}'`, then continue |
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add yojahny55/claude-wp-builder/wp-manifest-gate@sha256:c444a0c455b4d541

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261023.e7131e3, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
