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.logaudit trail. - Console commands
nuke/strike/fire,nuke/strike/scopes,nuke/sweep/run,nuke/sweep/listandnuke/sweep/due, all defaulting to a dry run. - Scheduled sweeps and emailed reports (Pro).
