This is working really well, thank you!

I tested posts and pages in the site editor (published and non-published), and also pages in the site editor.

The command appears as expected with the correct label, depending on the post status. ✅

I think for the first iteration it might be safer to limit the postType to page or post for now.

What do you think?

Looks like this PR needs a quick rebase too.

Hi @ramonjd

Thanks for your review and suggestions.

Yes, right. As per the ticket definition it is mentioning support for pages.

So this PR is mainly developed for pages and posts, we can consider the other postTypes later as you suggested.

I think it just needs a quick rebase and we're good to go 👍🏻
