Technical Debt Audit
Version: 1.2.0
Updated: 2026-06-30
Freshly updated: v1.2.0 turns the audit into safe, reversible cleanup. Every debt type now has a per-type cleanup playbook that opens with a respira_get_snapshot checkpoint and ends with an explicit respira_restore_snapshot rollback. Orphaned-shortcode findings are validated with respira_find_element before any edit. The per-site debt score is persisted via respira_get_option / respira_update_option so re-runs show the trend. The cleanup narrative is generated with respira_generate_activity_report. Builder archaeology now covers the newer block builders (Spectra, Kadence Blocks, GenerateBlocks, SeedProd) alongside the classic 16.

Description
Find orphaned content, unused plugins, and database bloat before they cause problems.
Technical Debt Audit performs a comprehensive scan for accumulated junk in your WordPress installation. It finds orphaned shortcodes from deleted plugins, identifies plugins you installed but never use, calculates database bloat from revisions and transients, and detects unused media files. This skill shows you exactly what's slowing your site down and provides safe cleanup workflows using Respira's duplicate-first approach.
