Minuttes is a monitoring layer for Action Scheduler, built for store owners and agencies that need visibility into the background processing their stores depend on.
It pairs with the hosted dashboard at minuttes.com, but the plugin works standalone — use it as a GraphQL API for Action Scheduler, a drop-in way to reduce Action Scheduler’s log volume, or a settings screen that detects bundled Action Scheduler conflicts between plugins. It also offers a stop button to suspend the Action Scheduler queue. Every capability is exposed over WP-CLI (<code>wp minuttes ...</code>), so operators, scripts, and AI agents can drive it straight from the terminal.
minuttes.com is an optional, paid subscription and is not required. The plugin’s own features — the GraphQL API, the WP-CLI command suite, queue suspend/resume, the critical-only logger, and conflict detection — work on their own, for free. Features marked (via minuttes.com) add the hosted dashboard, and connecting to it always requires explicit authorization on your site.
