A few days ago, I announced my free WordPress plugin: Updatronix 🔁

Goal: move from blind automation to controlled, traceable updates extending WordPress’ native system.

Features include detailed logs, notification routing, config visibility, failure tracking, and a local-first architecture.

Now live on WordPress.org:

Feedback welcome!
