So what am I working on for #radicalspeedmonth? Abilities Everywhere! I think the Abilities API in WordPress is one of the more powerful APIs to be released in WordPress' history (ranks up there with action and filter hooks). There's lots of room for adopting it more consistently across Automattic plugins and extensions. So along with two other folks ( 👋🏻 Enej and @rtio_dev ), we're changing that. The sweet thing about adding/refining Abilities is that it exposes functionality programatically, and schematically across multiple surface areas - MCP, WP-CLI, and eventually the Command Palette and Workflows. Plumbing isn't always flashy, but it makes things run better and you notice it when it's missing.

You might have heard of Radical Speed Month at @automattic? It's a new experiment, similar to a hackathon, where we team up in pairs and work closely together on something that we want to ship by the end of the month. I took this as an opportunity to work on two things that I feel are very important. (Starting now that I'm back from #CheckoutSummit!) First thing is the way that users create and manage variations in @WooCommerce. For this project I've teamed up with Poli, one of our very talented designers. Very excited with where it's going. For years, the variation experience within WooCommerce has been far from ideal. As a user, you have to click between multiple tabs, reload the page, deal with attributes, generate variations in batches of 50. Once those variations are created, you still have the hassle of multi-page navigation, depending on how many variations you have. Really just an experience that's very much lacking. Our project aims to massively simplify this process without affecting the underlying data, so anyone can use the new process with the variations they already have. The goal is to bring it all into one tab, the variations tab, and make the creation and editing experience much more streamlined, with far fewer clicks to actually create and manage variations. Conceptual design exploration attached. Additionally, I'm working with @PanosSynetos on a second project for our Product Add-Ons plugin, with the goal to dramatically improve the ratings of that plugin in the marketplace. Some of the ways we plan to do this are by looking at long-standing feature requests like conditional logic, as well as the reviews that have come in, general performance, and quality of life improvements. It's going to be a huge challenge to improve the ratings score, as we'll need a lot of five-star ratings to make this happen. But, we should be able to see the positive effect almost immediately once we've figured out the issues with the plugin. Of course, I love building in public, so I'll be sharing as much as I can about this project, about these projects, as we go through them. As always, I'll be looking for feedback, good or bad, to ensure we're building what you as a user actually want. Very excited by this way of working! 🚀 #radicalspeedmonth

I redesigned my entire WordPress site in ~2 hours • 1 prompt to pull it locally • 1 redesign prompt (+ a few tweaks) • 1 prompt to push it live No setup. No config. Just vibes. I used something called “Studio Code”… Post → riad.blog/2026/04/13/mee…

Leadership isn't a solo sport. For Paolo Belcastro, Artistic Director at Automattic, the most significant shift in his career didn't come from business school—it came from leadership coaching. 🧵
