Homer

Know what will break before it breaks.

Features

Deletion Safety

Before deleting an entry, asset, or category, Homer checks how many other elements reference it and classifies the risk:

• Safe — no references, safe to delete
• Low Risk — a few references, warning shown
• High Risk — many references, confirmation required
• Critical Risk — heavily referenced, typed confirmation (type DELETE) required

Homer can operate in three modes:

Relation Safety

Homer builds a usage graph by querying the relations table. For any element, it can tell you:

• How many other elements reference it
• Which elements, through which fields
• Whether any of those referencing elements are live, disabled, or pending

This powers the impact analysis behind every safety check.

Asset Safety

Assets get special treatment. Homer checks:

• Relation field references (asset fields, image fields)
• Rich text / CKEditor content references via the search index
• Unused asset detection for cleanup

Audit Log

Every risky action is logged with:

• What action was taken (delete, disable)
• Which element was affected
• Who performed the action
• Risk level and reference count at time of action
• The decision (allowed, warned, confirmed, blocked)

Logs are retained for a configurable number of days (default: 90).

CP Integration

Homer adds to the Craft control panel:

• Warning modals before dangerous deletions with risk badges, usage breakdowns, and typed confirmation
• Usage badges on element edit pages showing incoming reference counts
• Homer section in the CP sidebar with a dashboard and audit log
• Homer Safety utility with orphaned entry finder, unused asset review, and recent high-risk actions
