Bundle: WordPress operations workflow

Bundle matters only if the evidence supports a paid workflow around repeatable site operations, not a list of isolated fixes. The current commercial thesis is: WordPress teams need fewer manual checks and clearer operational visibility. The entry wedge is to turn repeated site-management friction into guided checks, issue explanations, and reusable operating procedures.
