Set up a Maestro test store

Provisions a Jurassic Ninja (JN) site and configures it as the Maestro lab store. Site creation is only possible through the jurassic-ninja ContextA8C MCP, so this skill drives that part; everything after "site exists and its password is known" is handled by .maestro/scripts/setup-jn-store.sh, which a developer can also run by hand against a site created in a browser.

Prerequisites

  • ContextA8C MCP configured with the jurassic-ninja provider (see .agents/rules/context-a8c.md).
  • App credentials present at ~/.configure/woocommerce-ios/secrets/woo_app_credentials.json. If missing, run rake dependencies.
  • expect on PATH (ships with macOS) for password-based SSH.
  • A WordPress.com test account with two-factor authentication disabled. The OAuth password grant used to connect Jetpack cannot answer a 2FA challenge non-interactively. Never use a personal or production account. The account is read from .env.local, or from MAESTRO_WOO_LAB_WPCOM_EMAIL / MAESTRO_WOO_LAB_WPCOM_PASSWORD in the environment; see step 0.

Steps

  1. Make sure the WordPress.com account is available. The script needs a test account to connect Jetpack to, and it cannot prompt when run by an agent because there is no terminal attached; it will exit with a message naming what is missing.

    If .env.local has no MAESTRO_WOO_LAB_WPCOM_EMAIL / MAESTRO_WOO_LAB_WPCOM_PASSWORD, stop and ask the user to either add those two lines themselves, or run the script directly in their own terminal, where it prompts without echoing:

    .maestro/scripts/setup-jn-store.sh --site <domain>.jurassic.ninja
    

    Do not ask the user to paste a password into the conversation, and never pass one as a command-line argument.

  2. Check whether setup is already usable. If .maestro/.env.local exists, probe the store in one bash call that sources the file, so no credential is read into the chat:

    ( set -a; . .maestro/.env.local; set +a
      curl -s -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' \
        -u "${MAESTRO_WOO_LAB_CONSUMER_KEY:-$MAESTRO_WOO_CONSUMER_KEY}:${MAESTRO_WOO_LAB_CONSUMER_SECRET:-$MAESTRO_WOO_CONSUMER_SECRET}" \
        "$MAESTRO_WOO_LAB_JETPACK_STORE_URL/wp-json/wc/v3/products?per_page=1" )
    

    A 200 means the store is alive and the keys work; report that and stop, unless the user passed --fresh. Anything else means the store is gone or expired: continue, and reuse the existing WP.com account lines rather than asking for them again.

  3. Provision a site.

    provision-site  features: {"woocommerce":"true","woocommerce-import-sample-data":"true","jetpack":"true"}
    

    Note the returned domain.

  4. Fetch its password.

    list-sites  domain: <domain>, include_passwords: true, include_config: true
    

    JN_PASSWORD in the returned config is both the wp-admin and the SSH password. The admin username is demo.

    Do not echo this value in your reply.

  5. Configure the store. Pass the password through the environment so it never lands in ps output:

    JN_SSH_PASS='<JN_PASSWORD>' .maestro/scripts/setup-jn-store.sh --site <domain>
    

    The script waits for JN to finish provisioning (it answers HTTP before its plugins finish installing), connects Jetpack, creates the API keys, and writes .maestro/.env.local.

    This assumes .env.local already has MAESTRO_WOO_LAB_WPCOM_EMAIL and MAESTRO_WOO_LAB_WPCOM_PASSWORD. If it does not, see step 0.

  6. Report the store URL and blog ID. Do not print any credential.

Verifying

.maestro/scripts/lint-env.py
.maestro/scripts/doctor.sh --app "$APP" --include-tags products --exclude-tags "" --seed --device "$UDID"

The doctor should report all credentials present. Scoping by tag is deliberate: with --profile full it also demands the negative-login fixtures, which this skill does not provision, and reports them missing.

What the provisioned store supports

A fresh store has the WooCommerce sample products. The script tops it up to 100 products and 100 completed orders, and adds one customer and a maestro10 coupon, so the product, order and dashboard flows run against it.

The negative-login fixtures (MAESTRO_WOO_NOT_A_WOO_STORE_*, MAESTRO_WOO_WRONG_ACCOUNT_STORE_URL) are shared read-only sites from the smoke testing guide and are filled in by hand.

Notes

  • JN sites expire after 7 days of inactivity. Re-run this skill when a store stops responding; it reuses the WordPress.com account already in .env.local.
  • Only test stores and test accounts. Destructive flows publish and delete real data.
  • The previous .env.local is backed up outside the repository, because .gitignore matches .env.local exactly and a sibling backup file would not be ignored.
