Description
Triage Agent Connector connects your WordPress site to WP Triage — a risk scoring and prioritization tool for agencies and freelancers managing multiple WordPress sites.
After you paste your agent key, the plugin registers the site and sends daily inventory snapshots (plugins, themes, PHP, WordPress version). WP Triage matches your install against known CVEs and produces a 0–100 risk score, your top three issues, and a recommended fix order per site.
WP Triage is a decision engine — it tells you what to fix first across your portfolio. It is not a firewall, backup tool, or site management dashboard.
External service & data usage
This plugin connects to the hosted WP Triage service at https://wptriage.app.
When you configure an agent key and save settings:
- The plugin calls the WP Triage API to register this site and obtain a site ID and ingest token.
- A daily cron job sends an inventory snapshot with:
- Installed plugin names and versions
- Active theme (and parent theme, if applicable) name and version
- WordPress core version
- PHP version
- Server hostname (where available)
WP Triage uses this data to calculate risk scores and prioritized fix recommendations for your connected sites. The plugin does not send post/page content, customer data, or database contents.
You need a WP Triage account to use this plugin. By connecting, you agree to the service’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.

FAQ
-
Where do I get the agent key?
-
Log in to WP Triage and go to Agent key in the app menu. Generate a key and copy it immediately — it is only shown once. Use the same key on every WordPress site you manage.
-
How is this different from Wordfence or MainWP?
-
Wordfence is a firewall and malware scanner for individual sites. MainWP is a site management dashboard for remote updates and monitoring. WP Triage scores risk across your portfolio and ranks what to fix first — it complements those tools rather than replacing them.
-
Do I need a site ID or ingest token?
-
No. The plugin obtains those automatically when you save settings.
-
What if I regenerate my agent key?
-
Generate a new key in WP Triage, then open Settings WP Triage on each WordPress site, paste the new key, and save again.
