## 説明

Update Compass is a decision-first WordPress admin plugin that helps you evaluate
plugin and theme updates before installing them.

Instead of only showing that an update is available, Update Compass adds a local
analysis layer and recommends what to do next based on version changes, compatibility
metadata, changelog signals, and release timing.

It keeps the native WordPress update workflow. Updates are still performed through
standard WordPress update mechanisms.

### How It Works

WordPress already detects updates. Update Compass reads that data and adds decision
guidance such as:

 * Update Ready
 * Stage & Test
 * Watch & Wait
 * Hold Off
 * Needs Review

Each status includes a short explanation and next-step guidance. For higher-risk
updates, users can open status details for deeper analysis and reminder scheduling.

### Key Features

 * Pre-update risk analysis for plugins and themes
 * Clear status badges with explanations and next steps
 * Version jump analysis (major, minor, patch deltas)
 * WordPress compatibility checks (`requires` / `tested`)
 * Changelog keyword detection (best effort)
 * Changelog links (WordPress.org modal/external links when available)
 * Reminder dates for monitoring and re-check workflows
 * Bulk update selection with caution confirmation for non-ready updates
 * Local-first workflow, no external account required

### Who Is This For

 * WordPress developers
 * Agencies maintaining multiple sites
 * Site owners managing complex plugin/theme stacks
 * WooCommerce or multilingual sites where update risk is higher

### Decision Logic (Summary)

Update Compass uses local rules to assess update risk, including:

 * Version delta analysis (major/minor/patch jumps)
 * WordPress compatibility metadata checks
 * Changelog keyword signals (when changelog text is available)
 * Release recency and stale-project checks
 * Changelog availability (flags manual review when missing)

### External Services

Update Compass is local-first and does not require an account.

To improve changelog-based reasoning, it may make server-side requests to publicly
available changelog/metadata endpoints when available (for example WordPress.org
plugin/theme metadata and changelog pages, or vendor-provided changelog URLs exposed
in WordPress update data).

This is best-effort only and used to enrich analysis. Core update detection still
relies on WordPress native update transients.

## インストール

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/update-compass` directory, 
    or install through the WordPress plugins screen.
 2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Dashboard > Update Compass**.
 4. Refresh update data and review statuses before applying updates.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin perform updates automatically?

No. Update Compass provides analysis and recommendations. Updates are still performed
using standard WordPress update functionality.

### Does this replace the WordPress updates screen?

No. It adds a decision layer and an admin screen for review. WordPress remains the
source of truth for available updates and installation flow.

### Does it call remote services?

It uses native WordPress update data and may fetch public changelog metadata/pages(
server-side) when available to improve reasoning.

### Does it work for premium plugins/themes?

Partially. If the updater provides changelog metadata or a usable changelog link,
Update Compass can use it. Otherwise, it may classify the update as Needs Review.

### Why was an update flagged as Watch & Wait or Stage & Test?

Common triggers include major version changes, large minor version jumps (multiple
skipped releases), compatibility warnings, or changelog signals suggesting breaking/
compatibility-impacting behavior.

### Can I update from this screen?

Yes. You can select items and use the built-in bulk update action. If selected items
are not marked Update Ready, Update Compass asks for confirmation first.
