Update cadence is slipping

Needs work

Last updated 18 months ago. Freshness is one of the strongest directory-ranking signals.

What to do: Get back on a visible release cadence, even minor releases.

!

Downloads are cooling

Needs work

30-day download momentum is -16% while the Uncategorized category median is +3%. The decline is steeper than the market, which points at something plugin-specific.

What to do: A coordinated content + outreach push can re-ignite installs.

Readme fails 4 of 8 AI readiness checks

Needs work

AI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: says what it does, has a faq, faq asks real questions and names who it is for. Short description is 37 characters, too short to say what the plugin does.

What to do: Rewrite the readme so each failed check passes: say the job in the first line, answer real questions in the FAQ, name who it is for and what it works with, and use headings and lists. For the same check on your plugin's own website, run the free AI visibility scan from AgentVania.

Review volume is thin

Opportunity

Only 2 ratings. A handful of reviews makes your star average fragile and weakens trust at install time.

What to do: Run a structured in-plugin review prompt and a review campaign.
