Dashboard Create Screen Skill

Creates new screens in client/dashboard with automatic route discovery and registration.

Step 1: Discover Available Routes

First, find all router files and extract available routes.

Find Router Files

Use Glob to discover router files:

client/dashboard/app/router/*.tsx
client/dashboard/app/router/*.ts

Extract Routes from Each File

For each router file, use Grep to extract route information.

Find exported route constants:

export\s+const\s+(\w+Route)\s*=\s*createRoute

Extract parent relationships:

getParentRoute:\s*\(\)\s*=>\s*(\w+Route)

Extract path segments:

path:\s*['"]([^'"]+)['"]

Extract component import paths:

import\(\s*['"]([^'"]+)['"]\s*\)

Build Route Information

For each discovered route, record:

• Route variable name (e.g., siteBackupsRoute)
• Parent route name (e.g., siteRoute)
• Path segment (e.g., 'backups')
• Source file path
• Component directory (derived from import path)

Step 2: Discover Navigation Menus (After Route Selection)

Menu discovery happens after the user selects a parent route. Find menus relative to the route's location.

Determine Menu Search Path

Based on the selected parent route's import path, determine where to search for menus:

1. Extract the component directory from the parent route's lazy import

- Example: import('../../sites/backups') → search in client/dashboard/sites/ - Example: import('../../me/profile') → search in client/dashboard/me/

1. Use Glob to find menu files in that area: client/dashboard/{area}/**/*-menu/index.tsx
2. Also check the app-level menu for top-level routes: client/dashboard/app/*-menu/index.tsx

Extract Menu Information

For each discovered menu file, use Grep to find:

Existing menu items pattern:

<ResponsiveMenu\.Item\s+to=

Route references in menu:

to=\{?\s*[`'"/]([^`'"}\s]+)

This helps understand the menu's structure and where to add new items.

Menu Item Pattern

Menu items use ResponsiveMenu.Item:

<ResponsiveMenu.Item to="/path/to/screen">
	{ __( 'Menu Label' ) }
</ResponsiveMenu.Item>

Conditional menu items check feature support:

{ siteTypeSupports.featureName && (
	<ResponsiveMenu.Item to={ `/sites/${ siteSlug }/feature` }>
		{ __( 'Feature' ) }
	</ResponsiveMenu.Item>
) }

Step 3: Gather User Input

Ask the user for the following using AskUserQuestion:

1. Parent Route: Present discovered routes grouped by source file
2. Screen Name: lowercase-with-dashes (e.g., custom-settings)
3. Route Path: URL path segment (e.g., custom-settings)
4. Page Title: Human-readable title (e.g., Custom settings)
5. Page Description (optional): Description shown below title
6. Add to Navigation Menu?: Yes or No

Step 4: Determine File Locations

Based on the selected parent route's import path, determine where to create the component.

Pattern: If parent imports from ../../sites/backups, new screen goes in client/dashboard/sites/{screen-name}/

For sites area: client/dashboard/sites/{screen-name}/index.tsx For me area: client/dashboard/me/{screen-name}/index.tsx For other areas: Follow the same pattern from parent's import path

Step 5: Create Component File

Generate a basic component with the standard layout.

Screen Template

import { __ } from '@wordpress/i18n';
import { PageHeader } from '../../components/page-header';
import PageLayout from '../../components/page-layout';

export default function {ComponentName}() {
	return (
		<PageLayout
			header={
				<PageHeader
					title={ __( '{PageTitle}' ) }
					description={ __( '{PageDescription}' ) }
				/>
			}
		>
			{/* Content goes here */}
		</PageLayout>
	);
}

Step 6: Register the Route

Add the route definition to the same router file as the parent route.

Route Definition Pattern

Add after other route exports in the file:

export const {routeName}Route = createRoute( {
	head: () => ( {
		meta: [
			{
				title: __( '{PageTitle}' ),
			},
		],
	} ),
	getParentRoute: () => {parentRoute},
	path: '{routePath}',
} ).lazy( () =>
	import( '{componentImportPath}' ).then( ( d ) =>
		createLazyRoute( '{routeId}' )( {
			component: d.default,
		} )
	)
);

Wire into Route Tree

Find where the parent route is used in the create*Routes() function and add the new route.

For standalone routes (direct child of main area route):

// Find the routes array (e.g., siteRoutes, meRoutes)
// Add the new route to the array
siteRoutes.push( newScreenRoute );

For nested routes (child of a feature route):

// Find where parent uses .addChildren()
// Add the new route to the children array
parentRoute.addChildren( [ existingRoute, newScreenRoute ] )

Step 7: Add Navigation Menu Entry (Optional)

If the user requested a navigation menu entry, add it to the discovered menu file.

Locate Target Menu File

Use the menu discovered in Step 2 based on the route's area:

1. From the parent route's import path, extract the area (e.g., sites, me, plugins)
2. Glob for client/dashboard/{area}/**/*-menu/index.tsx
3. If multiple menus found, present them to the user for selection
4. If no area-specific menu found, fall back to client/dashboard/app/primary-menu/index.tsx

Add Menu Item

Read the target menu file and find an appropriate location (typically before the closing </ResponsiveMenu> tag).

Build the route path from parent route's path + new screen path:

• If parent path is /sites/$siteSlug and screen path is analytics → /sites/${siteSlug}/analytics
• If parent path is /me and screen path is api-keys → /me/api-keys

Insert menu item:

<ResponsiveMenu.Item to={ `{fullRoutePath}` }>
	{ __( '{PageTitle}' ) }
</ResponsiveMenu.Item>

Match Existing Patterns

Analyze the existing menu items to match the pattern:

• If menu uses template literals with siteSlug, use the same pattern
• If menu uses simple strings, use simple strings
• If menu items have conditional wrappers, ask user if one is needed

Conditional Menu Items

If the screen requires feature gating (check if similar items in the menu use conditions):

{ siteTypeSupports.{featureName} && (
	<ResponsiveMenu.Item to={ `/sites/${ siteSlug }/{routePath}` }>
		{ __( '{PageTitle}' ) }
	</ResponsiveMenu.Item>
) }

Coding Standards

Follow the coding standards documented in client/dashboard/docs/.
