Version 5.0.0

August 17, 2026

Initial release.

Added

  • Strikes: bulk deletion of entries, categories, tags, assets and users, narrowed by source, entry type, site, status, age, search or explicit IDs.
  • A blast-radius preview that shares its resolved element list with the execution, counts drafts, revisions and relations, and lists the surviving elements that reference what is about to go.
  • Guardrails: typed confirmation, pre-strike database backup, soft delete by default, an element ceiling per run, protected scopes, and a separate permission for permanent deletion.
  • 23 housekeeping sweepers across content, database, files and Craft's own garbage collection, each with its own retention window.
  • A run ledger recording the target, the preview and the outcome of every strike and sweep, plus a dedicated storage/logs/nuke.log audit trail.
  • Console commands nuke/strike/fire, nuke/strike/scopes, nuke/sweep/run, nuke/sweep/list and nuke/sweep/due, all defaulting to a dry run.
  • Scheduled sweeps and emailed reports (Pro).
  • Scopes::EVENT_REGISTER_SCOPES and Sweepers::EVENT_REGISTER_SWEEPERS for adding your own, plus cancellable beforeStrike and beforeSweep events.
