What it does

WordPress monitoring alerts inside Slack

When a client site goes down, an SSL certificate nears expiry, or a plugin has a known CVE, WebGuardly opens an incident and delivers a formatted message to Slack.

Severity-colored alerts

Critical outages, SSL expiry, CVE warnings, and transient blips — formatted blocks your team can scan in seconds.

Works in your channels

Post to #ops, #client-alerts, or a private channel. Invite the bot to private channels with /invite @Monitor service.

OAuth, not webhooks

Secure workspace install with scoped permissions. Credentials are encrypted and never exposed in the dashboard.

Alert types routed to Slack

  • Site & critical page downtime
  • Recovery notifications
  • SSL & domain expiry
  • WordPress core / plugin updates
  • CVE vulnerability warnings
  • Transient uptime blips (optional)
