ShackleKeeper

ShackleKeeper is a focused crowd-control timer for Priests in World of Warcraft Classic Era. It tracks your own Shackle Undead, warns when it is time to recast, and reports how an active Shackle ended.

The addon never casts automatically and does not change your action bars.

Break attribution

For confirmed combat-log break events, ShackleKeeper displays the player who broke the Shackle. Spell breaks also display the breaking spell and the amount of crowd-control time that was still remaining.

If the Shackle aura disappears clearly before its expected expiry and the combat log provides no confirmed breaker, dispel or damage event, ShackleKeeper reports an unknown early break. It does not blame a player. This may represent a heartbeat resist or another cause not exposed by the combat log.

Failed new casts such as RESIST, IMMUNE or MISS are shown separately and have no remaining-time value because no new Shackle aura was applied.

Group communication

ShackleKeeper can share Breaker events invisibly with other ShackleKeeper users in the group. Supported channels are PARTY, RAID and INSTANCE_CHAT. Event IDs prevent a sender's echoed addon message from creating duplicate entries.

Public PARTY announcements are available as an option and are off by default.
