41. analyze_generic_php() - TIER 3 ❌

What it checks:

• PHP framework detection
• Generic slowness indicators
• Framework-agnostic checks

Findings:

• Framework hints from composer.json
• Database detected
• Cache status: Unknown

Remediation Capability: POOR

Intelligent Actions:

IF: Custom PHP application
THEN: Limited framework-specific advice
  Generic recommendations:
  - Enable caching
  - Optimize database queries
  - Monitor resource usage
  - Profile application

  Specific fixes require code review
  Recommendation: Developer review needed

IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY

Phase 1: TIER 1 & 2 Integration

Create a remediation engine that:

1. Parses findings from temp files
2. Extracts specific values (numbers, names, versions)
3. Matches against thresholds
4. Generates specific, actionable recommendations
5. Provides actual commands to run

Phase 2: Framework-Specific

Special handling for:

• WordPress (most detailed)
• Drupal (basic)
• Joomla (basic)
• Generic PHP (limited)

Phase 3: Investigation-Guided

For diagnostic-only checks:

• Provide clear investigation steps
• Suggest tools to use
• Guide toward root cause analysis

NEXT STEPS

1. Create REMEDIATION_ENGINE.sh with intelligent recommendation logic
2. Integrate into report generation
3. Test on multiple domains with different issues
4. Refine recommendations based on real-world testing
