# Respira Builder Edits

The core discipline for editing a live page builder site without breaking it: find the right element, duplicate before you touch anything real, apply the surgical edit, then verify it actually landed.

## About this skill

Use for any in-page content edit on a WordPress site with a page builder. Covers finding elements, applying surgical edits, duplicating before large changes, and verifying the result. Works across Elementor 3 + 4, Divi 4 + 5, Beaver Builder, Bricks, Oxygen Classic, Oxygen 6, Breakdance, WPBakery, Uncode, and Gutenberg.

**Read-only by default.** Any write operation creates a duplicate first, so the original page stays intact and you have an undo handle. All execution runs through Respira's MCP server with your existing credentials. 

## What it does

6 capabilities run in one pass — each one focused on a single failure mode.

#### Builder-Aware Editing

Detects the active builder first so every edit uses the correct field names and write path, not a guess.

#### Find Before You Write

Locates the exact element by selector, text, class, or ID before any change, instead of editing blind.

#### Snapshot Before Multi-Element Edits

Duplicates the page before touching more than one element, so every change has an undo path.

#### Cross-Builder Coverage

One workflow across Elementor, Divi 4 and 5, Beaver Builder, Bricks, Oxygen Classic and 6, Breakdance, WPBakery, Uncode, and Gutenberg.

#### Read-Back Verification

Re-reads the element after every write and confirms the change is actually reflected, not just reported.

#### Known Gotcha Table

A maintained table of common builder-specific mistakes and the correct approach for each, updated as the plugin ships fixes.

## What you'll need

**Respira for WordPress plugin** installed on the target site, with a valid API key.

**An AI agent** that supports Skills + MCP — Claude Code, Codex, Antigravity, or Cursor.

**SKILL.md saved** where your agent looks for skills (see install panel above).
