Check whether anyone can register an account on my site and which role new accounts get. Show me that role's capabilities, and list the users who joined in the last [30] days with their roles. If new accounts get more than [Subscriber], tell me exactly where to change it. Don't change anything.

If SAR is already in your AI app, this is enough:
Tell me whether anyone can sign up on my site and which role they get.
What happens
- The AI app reads WordPress's registration options, with secrets hidden. SAR never changes options that decide who can sign in; you change those in WordPress's own settings.
- It reads every role's capabilities and which one is the default for new accounts.
- It lists the users with their roles and when they joined; emails are shortened.
- It tells you whether anything looks wrong and where to change it. Nothing changes.
Approvals involved
Nothing here changes your site: no approval needed.

What you get
You know who can get an account on your site and with what access. A role that can do too much is trimmed back as a separate change, approved with your password.
