## Descripción

Uninstalled and misbehaving plugins leave behind lingering database bloat — autoloaded
options, ghost cron events, stranded transients, orphaned tables. Traditional cleanup
tools reach for aggressive drop/delete queries that risk breaking your site.

Attic audits your WordPress database for bloat, without any of that:

 * **Autoloaded option bloat** — oversized options that load on every page request,
   ranked by size against Site Health’s 800 KB line.
 * **Ghost cron events** — scheduled hooks with no registered callback, firing forever
   and doing nothing.
 * **Orphaned tables** — tables no installed plugin claims, with reclaimable megabytes
   up front.
 * **Stranded transients** — expired timeout pairs and orphaned rows.
 * **Leftovers from deleted plugins** — data whose owning plugin is absent from 
   disk entirely.

Two rules outrank every feature:

 1. **Quarantine, never delete.** Options are stored before removal. Tables are renamed(`
    wp_attic_quarantined_*`), never dropped until a purge window passes.
 2. **Nothing is called orphaned until your code has been searched for it.** Attic 
    streams `wp-content` — plugins, mu-plugins, themes, `wp-config.php` — looking for
    every candidate name before promoting anything to high confidence.

Every finding shows its full evidence inline: which rule fired, what it attributed
to and whether that plugin exists on disk, how many code references were found, 
and the size. A finding you cannot audit is a finding you should not act on.

### Filters

 * `attic_protected_options` — additional never-flag option names
 * `attic_protected_cron_hooks` / `attic_protected_tables` — same, for cron and 
   tables
 * `attic_finding_confidence` — last word on any single finding’s confidence
 * `attic_reference_scan_roots` — unusual layouts, custom content dirs

## Instalación

 1. Upload the `attic` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
 3. Navigate to **Tools  Attic** to run your first audit.

## FAQ

### Is this safe?

The scan is read-only. Nothing changes until you take an explicit, confirmed action.
Core options like `siteurl`, `active_plugins` and `cron` can never be flagged, and
neither can anything on your own protected list or the `attic_protected_options`
filter.

### How do I undo something?

Tools  Attic  Quarantine. Every action creates a batch; restore a whole batch in
one click. Batches auto-purge after 30 days (configurable).

### Why does my finding say «review» instead of «high»?

High confidence requires: the owning plugin absent from disk (or size-flagged _and_
unread), AND zero literal AND zero prefix references in your code. Dynamic option
names never literal-match, so weak signals still demote findings. If your filesystem
could not be read, everything is marked unverified rather than guessed at.

### Does it work with external object caches?

Yes — when Redis/Memcached is active, transients never touch the options table, 
and Attic says so instead of showing a meaningless clean bill of health.

### Multisite?

Single-site and subdirectory multisite installs work. Network-wide fleet scanning
is planned.

## Registro de cambios

#### 1.0.1

 * Fix: Quarantine action now correctly updates finding state (broken by SQL syntax
   error).
 * Fix: Orphan tables rule no longer flags Attic’s own tables on sites with nested
   table prefixes (e.g. wp_pc_attic_*).
 * Add: Stop scan button to abort long-running scans mid-flight.
 * Fix: Findings page defaults to latest completed scan instead of showing duplicates
   across all scans.
 * Fix: Scan complete state now hides progress bar and stop button cleanly.
 * Fix: Empty quarantine batches are cleaned up automatically.

#### 1.0.0

 * Initial plugin release: read-only database audit with quarantine-based undo, 
   five detection rules, budgeted scan engine, reference scanning, quarantine with
   batch restore, and attribution map.
