v1.0.0

Initial release

First public release. FatalGuard catches the fatal behind the WordPress white screen, alerts you, and gives you a one-tap link to restore the site.

Added

  • Fatal-error capture behind the white screen — a never-brick, self-installing must-use drop-in that needs no wp-config.php editing.
  • Live log viewer in wp-admin — reads debug.log and the PHP error_log; classifies fatals, warnings, and deprecations; grouping with counts, search, and a live tail.
  • Telegram alerts (single channel) with automatic chat detection.
  • One-tap plugin recovery — a signed, expiring link that deactivates the crashing plugin and restores the site; unlimited, never capped.
  • Auto file logging (no wp-config.php editing) and a “show PHP errors on the front end” toggle for local development.
  • Pro — AI access (MCP): a read-only, in-WordPress MCP endpoint secured by a scoped, revocable API key, so Claude/Cursor/VS Code can query your error history.
  • Pro — Searchable error history: a database of every fatal, grouped, with counts and first/last-seen, plus a retention setting.
  • Pro — Slack, Discord, email, and custom-webhook alert channels.
  • Pro — Alert routing: send a plugin's fatals to their own Telegram target.
  • Pro — Stealth mode: hide the plugin from non-allowlisted administrators.
  • Pro — Weekly email digest.
  • Pro Agency — 20-site license.
