What changed in WordPress

Every change an AI agent should know about, with what to do now and the source. This is what the wp_now tool returns.

Performance

7.2 stops concatenating admin scripts and styles

WordPress 7.2 loads admin scripts and stylesheets individually instead of combining them into large files, for better browser caching, and prefetches resources for the admin screen the user is likely to visit next (Trac #57548).

Don't rely on admin asset concatenation when debugging or ordering admin assets on 7.2; declare dependencies properly.

Performance

Client-side media processing in the block editor

Images uploaded in the editor are resized and encoded in the browser with wasm-vips, then uploaded; wp_generate_attachment_metadata still fires. Server hooks wp_image_editors, image_memory_limit and image_make_intermediate_size do not fire for these uploads. Editor screens send Document-Isolation-Policy on Chromium 137+.

Disable it with add_filter( 'wp_client_side_media_processing_enabled', '__return_false' ) if your plugin depends on server-side image editors.
