Control WordPress Studio features from the terminal. Integrate local development into scripting workflows with CLI tools.
Studio CLI wraps WP-CLI functionality (studio wp command) with automatic environment setup, database credentials, and path configuration, allowing developers to execute WP-CLI operations without installing or configuring WP-CLI separately.
Studio CLI provides globally available command-line commands (studio site create, start, stop, delete, status) to create, configure, and manage local WordPress sites entirely from the terminal, enabling developers to work without the GUI.
Studio CLI preview commands (studio preview create, update, delete, list) let developers build and deploy local sites to temporary WordPress.com preview environments with shareable URLs, eliminating the need for teammates to have local development setups.
Studio CLI works with AI agents (Claude Code, Cursor, IDE extensions) that can detect Studio projects and execute terminal commands, enabling agents to automatically create sites, manage previews, and run WP-CLI tasks based on developer instructions.
Studio CLI commands can be embedded in shell scripts and build pipelines (studio site create, studio preview create, studio wp commands), allowing developers to automate local site setup, preview deployment, and WP-CLI operations as part of CI/CD workflows.
