## Description

**CordonAI Site Health Doctor** finds what is wrong with your site, explains it 
in plain language, and hands you the fix. It is a _diagnostic_ tool: it never edits,
deletes or blocks anything. It measures, explains and recommends — the decision 
always stays with you.

Everything described below works in this version. Three things usually scattered
across different tools, now in one dashboard:

 1. **Performance & health diagnostics** — which plugins and hooks are slow, which 
    SQL queries are heavy or repeated, what is happening to your database and disk,
    and which PHP errors keep occurring.
 2. **Access-log analysis** — traffic, bots and signs of attack, read straight from
    your server’s own access logs inside wp-admin. Nothing is sent to any external 
    service.
 3. **Recommendations & warnings** — every finding is explained on two levels: a plain“
    what it means and what to do” for everyone, and the technical detail (stack traces,
    SQL, commands) for developers.

#### What it does, out of the box

 * **Health dashboard** — an overall Health Score built from four sub-scores (errors,
   performance, database, security), each with a transparent breakdown of every 
   penalty, plus a live environment summary: WordPress, PHP, database, web server,
   HTTPS, memory and more.
 * **Errors & warnings** — an early error handler that starts catching PHP errors
   the moment WordPress loads — even while other plugins are still loading — de-
   duplicates them into groups, and attributes each one to the plugin, theme or 
   core file that really caused it. Optional `debug.log` parsing.
 * **Performance** — always-on light sampling of page-generation time, memory and
   query counts, plus on-demand deep-profiling sessions that measure each active
   plugin, your most expensive hooks, and your slowest SQL queries (with EXPLAIN).
 * **Database** — per-table data and index sizes, autoload weight, overhead and 
   bloat counters, growth tracking over time, and safe, copy-ready clean-up recipes.
 * **Disk & files** — a resumable scanner for large files, junk, leftover plugin
   and theme folders, and web-exposed backups, plus a core-file integrity check 
   against the official WordPress.org checksums.
 * **Logs & traffic** — incremental parsing of Apache, Nginx and LiteSpeed access
   logs (including rotated and `.gz` files) into compact hourly aggregates: traffic,
   top URLs, bots versus humans, and status codes.
 * **Security** — heuristics over those same logs that surface brute-force, scanning
   and injection attempts as ranked events, each with the evidence behind it and
   safe, copy-ready hardening advice.
 * **Recommendations** — one prioritised to-do list distilled from every module.
   It also watches for change-over-time problems: an error rate or a page that suddenly
   runs far above your site’s own normal range, and the slowest front-end pages.
 * **Notifications** — opt-in alerts the moment a new fatal error happens, plus 
   a weekly digest that shows what changed since last time. Delivered by e-mail 
   and, if you want, to Slack, Telegram or Discord.
 * **Updates & vulnerabilities** — flags out-of-date core, plugins and themes, and(
   optionally, with your own free WPScan token) checks the installed versions against
   the WPScan vulnerability database so you hear about a published CVE quickly.
 * **Uptime & SSL** — an optional hourly check of your home page (catching front-
   end errors and slow responses) and a warning before your TLS certificate expires.
 * **Client reports** — an optional, white-label monthly HTML report (health, performance,
   errors, security and recommendations) e-mailed to you or your client. Download
   it any time.
 * **For developers** — WP-CLI commands (`wp site-doctor health|recommendations|
   scan|report`) and an optional token-gated metrics endpoint for Prometheus / Grafana.

#### Built for real hosting

 * **Shared hosting is the baseline.** No root, no `exec()`, no special PHP extensions
   required. Anything that genuinely needs a VPS is clearly labelled.
 * **Do no harm.** A diagnostics tool must not slow your site down or bloat your
   database. Light always-on sampling plus deep, time-boxed profiling on demand;
   compact aggregates instead of raw data; automatic clean-up after a retention 
   window you control.
 * **Privacy first.** There is no telemetry and no tracking, ever. By default nothing
   leaves your site. A few clearly-labelled features are opt-in and only contact
   a service after you switch them on — vulnerability lookups, chat notifications
   and GeoIP — each listed in the Privacy section below. An optional IP-anonymisation
   setting helps with GDPR.

### Privacy

CordonAI Site Health Doctor stores all of its data in your own WordPress database
and your own uploads directory. It does not phone home and contains no analytics
or tracking.

Every external connection is optional, off by default, and clearly documented:

 * **WordPress.org checksums** (`api.wordpress.org`) — used by the Disk module’s
   core-integrity check to compare your core files against the official checksums
   for your version. This is the same mechanism WordPress itself uses.
 * **MaxMind GeoLite2** (`download.maxmind.com`) — only if you enter your own free
   MaxMind licence key to enable offline GeoIP. The country database is downloaded
   to your server and lookups then happen locally, with nothing sent out.
 * **WPScan** (`wpscan.com`) — only if you enter your own free WPScan API token.
   The plugin sends the slugs and versions of your installed plugins, themes and
   core to look up published vulnerabilities. Without a token, no vulnerability 
   lookup happens.
 * **Chat notifications** (Slack, Telegram or Discord) — only if you paste a webhook
   URL or bot token. The alert text you would otherwise receive by e-mail is then
   also posted to that service.
 * **Uptime check** — requests your own site’s home page on a schedule. This is 
   your own server, not a third party.

The optional **metrics endpoint** is inbound only (a monitoring system pulls from
it) and is disabled until you set a token; it exposes aggregate gauges with no personal
data.

The Logs module can optionally **anonymise IP addresses** (zeroing the last octet
of IPv4 / the last 80 bits of IPv6) before storing aggregates, to help with GDPR.
This option is explained in the settings.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `cordonai-site-diagnostics` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install
    the plugin through **Plugins  Add New**.
 2. Activate it through the **Plugins** screen in WordPress.
 3. Open **Site Doctor** in the admin menu. You land on the dashboard with your Health
    Score and environment summary, and the Recommendations page already lists the issues
    found on your site.
 4. Visit **Site Doctor  Settings** to choose which modules run, point the Logs module
    at your access-log file, and set how long data is kept.

Minimum requirements: WordPress 6.0+, PHP 7.4+, MySQL 5.7+ / MariaDB 10.3+.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin change anything on my site?

No. It is read-only by design. It will never clean your database, block an IP, or
deactivate a plugin. Every finding comes with a recommendation that you choose to
act on (or not).

### Will it slow my site down?

The background monitor samples only a fraction of requests and is designed to stay
under roughly 2% overhead. Deep profiling runs only when you start a time-boxed 
session, and stops automatically.

### Does it work on cheap shared hosting?

Yes — that is the primary target. Everything works without root access or special
PHP extensions. Anything that truly requires a VPS is labelled and provided as instructions.

### Where does the security analysis get its data?

From your server’s own access logs (Apache, Nginx or LiteSpeed), parsed locally 
inside wp-admin. You point the plugin at your log file in the settings. Nothing 
is ever sent to a third party.

### Is any data sent to a third party?

No telemetry, ever, and nothing by default. Every outbound connection is opt-in 
and stays off until you switch it on: the WordPress.org checksum API (core-integrity
check, the same one WordPress itself uses), MaxMind (GeoIP database download), the
WPScan API (vulnerability lookups, only with your token), and the chat services 
you configure for notifications (Slack, Telegram, Discord). The uptime check requests
your own home page, not a third party. They are all listed in the Privacy section
below.

### Do I need a MaxMind account?

Only if you want country-level GeoIP in the Logs module. It is optional and free;
without it, log and security analysis still work.
