Project Guardian
Project Guardian helps Drupal site maintainers assess the long-term health of their installed contributed projects by analyzing data on release compatibility, security coverage, development activity, and more. It provides a transparent health score, and an optional AI submodule can offer risk explanations and recommended actions based on the reports.
Project Guardian helps Drupal site maintainers evaluate the long-term maintenance health of installed contributed projects.
It combines objective evidence from Drupal Update Status, Drupal.org, and GitLab—including release compatibility, security advisory coverage, development activity, maintainer resilience, and issue stewardship—to produce a transparent and reproducible health score.
An optional Project Guardian AI submodule can interpret completed reports and provide concise risk explanations and recommended actions through providers configured with the Drupal AI module. AI never calculates or modifies the objective score.
Key features include:
- Deterministic maintenance health scores for installed contributed projects.
- Evidence from official Drupal community services.
- Health categories and detailed score components.
- Historical reports for identifying maintenance trends.
- Scheduled weekly scans using Drupal cron and queues.
- Caching, request limits, and graceful handling of unavailable sources.
- Optional AI-generated risk explanations.
- Privacy-conscious processing without sending source code or issue content to AI providers.
Project Guardian complements Update Status, Project Browser, and Upgrade Status. It does not replace security update monitoring or source-code analysis.
