## Descripción

**Talking Monkey Insights** 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.

#### What you see in WP Admin

 * **Updates** — count + list of plugins needing updates, theme update count, core
   update status
 * **Security** — threats blocked, login attempts blocked, last scan results (auto-
   detected from WordFence or Defender)
 * **Backups** — last backup time, backup count, next scheduled backup (auto-detected
   from UpdraftPlus or Snapshot)
 * **SSL** — days until expiry with color-coded status
 * **REST API** — endpoint URL + your API key + enable/disable toggle

#### Why the REST API matters

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 `/
wp-json/tm/v1/stats` that you can hit from your own dashboard, BI tool, Slack bot,
or whatever you already use.

The endpoint requires an API key (auto-generated on activation; regeneratable). 
No other authentication.

#### Multi-ecosystem detection

Most site monitoring plugins lock you into one ecosystem. This one auto-detects 
whichever security and backup plugin you have installed:

 * **Security:** WordFence or Defender
 * **Backups:** UpdraftPlus or Snapshot

Don’t have either installed? The corresponding section shows a neutral “no supported
plugin detected” state. No upsells, no recommendations to install anything.

#### Privacy

This plugin does not send any data outside of your WordPress site without your explicit
configuration. No telemetry. No analytics. No phone-home.

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.

#### Built by an agency that uses it

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.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin send data anywhere?

No. The plugin reads data from your WordPress install (plugin updates, SSL certificate,
security/backup plugin status) and either displays it in your WP Admin or returns
it through an authenticated REST endpoint when an external dashboard requests it.
It never proactively contacts any external service.

### Where is the REST endpoint?

/wp-json/tm/v1/stats — relative to your site’s URL. Send a GET request with the `
X-TM-Key` header set to your API key (visible in **TM Insights**  **REST API** in
WP Admin).

### Can I disable the REST API?

Yes. **TM Insights**  **REST API**  uncheck “Enable REST API endpoint”  Save.

### What security plugins does this work with?

Phase 1 supports WordFence and Defender. We’re planning to add Solid Security and
Sucuri in future releases based on user demand.

### What backup plugins does this work with?

Phase 1 supports UpdraftPlus and Snapshot. Solid Backups, BlogVault, and Duplicator
are candidates for future releases.

### My security/backup plugin isn’t supported — what do I do?

Open a [support thread](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/tm-insights/) and tell
us which plugin you’d like to see supported. We’ll prioritize based on user demand.

### Is this plugin GPL?

Yes. Licensed under GPL v2 or later — you can fork, modify, and redistribute freely.

### Who built this?

[Talking Monkey](https://talkingmonkeymedia.com) — a WordPress-focused agency that
uses this plugin internally to monitor every site we host. We made it public because
every agency and freelancer in our space could use the same tool.
