SAC Database Inspector

SAC Database Inspector is a lightweight, admin-only utility designed to help site administrators understand what is stored in their site’s database and cache — and clean it up safely when needed.

Unlike aggressive “optimizer” plugins, Database Inspector focuses on visibility first, showing you where bloat exists before offering optional, manual cleanup actions.

Key features:

• Database health gauge with clear visual feedback
• View total database size (when supported by hosting)
• Inspect autoloaded options that load on every page
• Identify expired and unused transients
• Detect post revisions, auto-drafts, spam, and trash
• Find orphaned post meta and comment meta
• Flush external object cache (when enabled)
• Optional read-only mode via filter for audit-only environments
• Multisite-aware and shared-host safe
• No frontend impact — admin-only
• Contextual source identification for autoloaded options

All cleanup actions require explicit confirmation and are protected by nonces and capability checks.

Developer Notes

This plugin follows coding standards and avoids aggressive optimization tactics. It is intended as a transparent inspection and maintenance tool, not an automatic optimizer.

Filters and actions are provided for extensibility.
