Get Boost modules

Read-only

List Jetpack Boost performance modules and submodules along with their active, available, and optimizing status.

Requires the Jetpack Boost plugin on WordPress 6.9+. All four abilities require the current user to be logged in and hold the 'manage_options' capability — Boost has no abilities-specific capability of its own and mirrors the permission model used by its REST API and admin screens.

What it does

This ability returns an array of Jetpack Boost's performance modules and submodules, each reported as an object with slug, active, available, and optimizing fields. Module slugs use underscores, such as critical_css, page_cache, and image_cdn. Results can be narrowed with an optional single-slug lookup (unknown slugs return an empty array rather than an error), a status filter (active, inactive, available, or optimizing), or a case-insensitive substring search against the slug. Results are returned sorted by slug so an AI agent can diff module state across calls, and the slugs returned here are the exact values expected by jetpack-boost/set-module-status.

You ask your AI assistant

"Show me which Jetpack Boost performance modules are currently active on my site."

Inputs

Name Type Required Description
slug string No Return a single module by its slug (e.g. "critical_css", "page_cache"). Unknown slugs yield an empty array.
status string No Filter by lifecycle state: active (enabled by the user), inactive (available but disabled), available (currently loadable on this site), or optimizing (active and currently serving optimized output).
search string No Case-insensitive substring match against the module slug.

Returns

An array of objects, one per module, each with the module slug and boolean active, available, and optimizing flags.

Permission

The current user must be logged in and have the 'manage_options' capability.
