Automation
Rudel's automation layer keeps disposable sandboxes from accumulating forever.
Automation can:
- run cleanup policy
- report expired sandboxes
- report sandboxes close to expiry
Configuration
Automation settings live in Rudel's DB-backed config store.
| Key | Purpose | Default |
|---|---|---|
auto_cleanup_enabled |
Run scheduled cleanup | 0 |
auto_cleanup_merged |
Include merged Git branches | 0 |
auto_cleanup_expired |
Include expired sandboxes | 1 |
expiry_warning_days |
Warn when expiry is within N days | 2 |
WP-Cron
When enabled, Rudel schedules an hourly WP-Cron event.
Shell
wp rudel automation enable
wp rudel automation status
Use manual cleanup for deterministic local or CI runs:
Shell
wp rudel cleanup --dry-run
wp rudel cleanup --force
