Minimum and recommended versions#

Requirement	Minimum	Recommended
WordPress	6.2	7.1 (the version the rules target; tested up to 7.1)
PHP	7.4	8.1 or newer
User role	Administrator (`manage_options`)	Administrator
License	Not needed to scan	Active license key from your technoleet.dev account, for updates and support
Multisite	Supported (activate per site)	–
WP-CLI	Optional	Latest release, for the `wp editor-readiness scan` command
Action Scheduler	Optional	If another plugin (for example WooCommerce) provides it, background scan chunks use it instead of WP-Cron

The scan reads files in wp-content/plugins and your theme folders. PHP needs read access to them, which is the case on any working site.
Each scan chunk runs for at most 4 seconds in the browser (or half of PHP’s max_execution_time, whichever is lower), so default PHP time limits are fine.
The scan takes a MySQL named lock (GET_LOCK) so that two chunks never run at once. Standard MySQL and MariaDB hosting supports this.
Background chunks run through Action Scheduler when it is available, otherwise through WP-Cron. If WP-Cron is disabled on your host (DISABLE_WP_CRON), keep the scan page open until the scan finishes, or make sure a system cron hits wp-cron.php.
