</ol>
<p>No coding required. Works in 60 seconds.</p>
<h3>External Services</h3>
<p>This plugin transmits data to the SiteBrief monitoring platform, a third-party service operated by the plugin author.</p>
<h4>Service</h4>
<p>SiteBrief (https://sitebrief.net) — a website monitoring and client reporting platform for web agencies.</p>
<h4>What data is sent</h4>
<p>The following data is collected from your WordPress installation and sent to sitebrief.net:</p>
<ul>
<li>WordPress core version</li>
<li>PHP version</li>
<li>Site URL and admin email address</li>
<li>List of installed plugins (name, version, active status, whether an update is available)</li>
<li>Active theme name and version</li>
<li>Number of administrator user accounts (count only, no usernames or emails)</li>
<li>Whether WP_DEBUG mode is enabled</li>
<li>Filesystem method and DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT setting</li>
</ul>
<p>No passwords, post content, comments, customer data, payment information, or personally identifiable user data is ever collected or transmitted.</p>
<h4>When data is sent</h4>
<p>Data is transmitted to https://sitebrief.net/api/wp-agent once per hour via WordPress cron (WP-Cron). A manual sync can also be triggered from the plugin settings page (Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> SiteBrief). Data is only sent when a Plugin Token has been saved in the settings — no data is transmitted if the plugin is not connected.</p>

<p><strong>Talking Monkey Insights</strong> gives you a site health snapshot in your WordPress admin — and exposes the same data via a secure REST API so you can monitor multiple sites from your own dashboard.</p>
<h4>What you see in WP Admin</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Updates</strong> — count + list of plugins needing updates, theme update count, core update status</li>
<li><strong>Security</strong> — threats blocked, login attempts blocked, last scan results (auto-detected from WordFence or Defender)</li>
<li><strong>Backups</strong> — last backup time, backup count, next scheduled backup (auto-detected from UpdraftPlus or Snapshot)</li>
<li><strong>SSL</strong> — days until expiry with color-coded status</li>
<li><strong>REST API</strong> — endpoint URL + your API key + enable/disable toggle</li>
</ul>
<h4>Why the REST API matters</h4>
<p>If you manage multiple WordPress sites — agency, freelance portfolio, internal IT — built-in WP Site Health is shallow and ManageWP/MainWP require connecting to their proprietary dashboards. This plugin gives you a clean, secure REST endpoint at <code>/wp-json/tm/v1/stats</code> that you can hit from your own dashboard, BI tool, Slack bot, or whatever you already use.</p>
<p>The endpoint requires an API key (auto-generated on activation; regeneratable). No other authentication.</p>
<h4>Multi-ecosystem detection</h4>
<p>Most site monitoring plugins lock you into one ecosystem. This one auto-detects whichever security and backup plugin you have installed:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Security:</strong> WordFence or Defender</li>
<li><strong>Backups:</strong> UpdraftPlus or Snapshot</li>
</ul>
<p>Don’t have either installed? The corresponding section shows a neutral “no supported plugin detected” state. No upsells, no recommendations to install anything.</p>
<h4>Privacy</h4>
<p>This plugin does not send any data outside of your WordPress site without your explicit configuration. No telemetry. No analytics. No phone-home.</p>
<p>The REST API endpoint is enabled by default but can be disabled in settings. When enabled, access requires an API key. The plugin only responds to authenticated requests; it never proactively contacts external services.</p>
<h4>Built by an agency that uses it</h4>
<p>Talking Monkey hosts WordPress sites for our own clients. We built this plugin to monitor them from our internal dashboard — and made it free + open source so other agencies and site owners can do the same. We need it to be trustworthy because we install it on every site we host.</p>
