Download and install WP fresh core

Use --skip-content to not download default themes/plugins.

Dont do this if wp installation is any way customised, bedrock etc
wp core download --force --skip-content

Reinstall every plugin that's installed

Use --skip-plugins --skip-themes to skip plugins and themes to minimize errors and prevent running the possible malicious code

wp plugin install $(wp plugin list --field=name --skip-plugins --skip-themes) --force --skip-plugins --skip-themes

Reinstall every theme that's installed
