I engineer secure WordPress platforms, AI-powered automation and immersive web experiences. Since 2015, I have worked with publishers, agencies and businesses on the websites they rely on. My work covers the front end, the database and the problems in between.

Fleet Sentinel watches the fleet.

I built Fleet Sentinel to monitor WordPress sites from one place. It brings together uptime checks, plugin and theme vulnerabilities, pending updates and agent health, with alerts sent to Google Chat.

npm workspaces monorepo

  • apps/panelThe Next.js 15 admin panel.
  • apps/wp-pluginThe WordPress agent plugin: plain PHP, v1.2.0, 10 classes.
  • apps/checkerA standalone health-check bot.
  • packages/protocolThe shared signing and encryption library.

Transport

The panel tries several transports in turn (a signed RPC endpoint, then admin-ajax, then REST variants) and remembers which one works. Every request is signed with HMAC-SHA256, with clock-skew correction and jittered retries. Cache-busting headers and fingerprint-based cache invalidation in the plugin.

Failure detection

Failures are sorted into 14 types (blocked, timeout, TLS, clock skew and more). A φ accrual failure detector (Hayashibara et al.) decides when an agent is unreachable. If most sites fail at once, the panel assumes its own network is the problem and holds alerts.

Signals

Instant change notices (“nudges”) from the agent. A goodbye notice when the plugin is deactivated. An “Agent reconnected” all-clear.
