Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Karetaker

No. Karetaker watches and alerts. It does not filter HTTP traffic.
Not by default. There is no login lockout or renamed login URL in the default set. Hardening toggles are opt-in and reversible from Karetaker → Harden.
Define KARETAKER_DISABLE as true in wp-config.php, or create wp-content/karetaker-disable. The plugin then boots nothing.
It unlocks a read-only JSON status endpoint for monitoring scripts. Empty token = off. Regenerating invalidates the old token. Authenticate with Authorization: Bearer <token> only (query-string tokens are not accepted). It cannot change settings or run scans remotely.
No. Uninstall drops the events table, plugin options, and cron hooks.
By default, only integrity checks contact WordPress.org to fetch published core/plugin checksums (same family of APIs WordPress itself uses). Optional features you turn on yourself may also leave the site: ACT alert emails (to the address you choose), an ACT webhook POST (to the URL you set), and the agency status endpoint (only when a token is generated — read-only, inbound). Karetaker does not phone home to Team Krikir and does not load third-party scripts or ads.
