Manage Drupal patchs with a composer plugin
Goal is to help keep patches up to date, warn when a patch is not necessary anymore (if it's been included in the newest module release), or if there are conflicts before doing the module update.
This only works on modules published on drupal.org, custom/private modules can't get checked by design, let me know what you think :) full disclosure it's using an API I'm hosting and control, I'm on the leadership team of Drupal, and beside being useful for people, the data will be used to see what people keep applying so we can prioritize some issues over others down the line.

I had a MCP server doing the same thing couple of weeks ago .The plugin is better and agents pick it up without doing anything special, win-win. Using this over a bare LLM session where you ask "update my site to the latest Drupal version" can cut the time and cost in two when there are many patches to check. Not that I'm a huge fan of these tools but people do use them and the plugin makes it so they have less work to do for a better result.
