Add private, on-device AI to WordPress (write, translate, rewrite, proofread, summarize). Free runs locally; Pro connects to your own AWS backend.

== Description ==

AI-Kit brings practical AI helpers to WordPress while keeping privacy first.

WPSuite is a commercial platform by Smart Cloud Solutions, Inc., providing optional shared services for SmartCloud WordPress plugins.

**Free (local-only) mode**
AI-Kit uses Chrome’s built-in on-device AI capabilities (when available). In this mode, content is processed locally in the browser.

**Key features**
* **Media Library: SEO image metadata generation**
  * Works in the **Media Library list view** and **grid view**
  * Supports both the **attachment details panel** and the **attachment edit screen**
  * Includes **bulk workflows** (preview and accept/save items one-by-one)
* **Gutenberg: AI-Kit Sidebar**
  * **Post metadata generation**
  * **Text generation** (topic + instructions + tone + length + language)
* **Gutenberg: Inline tools (toolbar group)**
  * Proofread, rewrite, and translate selected/editable text blocks
* **Gutenberg: SEO Metadata panel for image-like blocks**
  * Adds a dedicated panel for core/image, core/cover and core/media-text, to generate SEO metadata for images
* **PRO: AI-Kit Chatbot**
  * Add an on-site chatbot widget configurable from WP Admin (appearance, labels, behavior)
  * Customize chat UI labels (e.g., title and placeholder), language and text direction (LTR/RTL/auto)
  * Customize the open button (position, label, optional base64 icon)
  * Use **Preview** to instantly try your current settings without saving
* **PRO: AI-Kit Feature block**
  * Add front-end buttons to **summarize, write, rewrite, translate, and proofread**
* **PRO: [smartcloud-ai-kit-feature] shortcode**
  * Use the same “AI-Kit Feature” functionality in other editors/builders via a shortcode
* **Developer API**
  * AI-Kit exposes a small JS surface under `globalThis.WpSuite.plugins.aiKit.features` so developers can integrate AI-Kit features in their own plugins and custom code.

You can find the plugin’s continuously expanding documentation at:

[WP Suite – Docs](https://wpsuite.io/docs/)

This plugin is not affiliated with or endorsed by Google, Amazon Web Services, or the WordPress Foundation. All trademarks are property of their respective owners.

== Free and Premium Usage Notice ==

AI-Kit works in **Free mode** without registration or subscription, using **local-only (on-device) AI** inside supported desktop Chrome browsers.

**Pro features** are optional and become available after connecting your WordPress site to a WPSuite.io workspace:
* **AI-Kit Chatbot** (on-site widget + customizable settings + Preview)
* Front-end **AI-Kit Feature** Gutenberg block
* Front-end **smartcloud-** shortcode
* Optional **backend-only / backend-fallback** modes (when on-device AI is unavailable or when you explicitly choose backend processing)

When backend is used, requests go to an API endpoint you configure — typically an AWS API deployed into **your own AWS account** using the “wpsuite-ai-kit” SAR template.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the plugin ZIP (or install via the WordPress plugin repository).
2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen in WordPress.
3. Go to **WP Admin → SmartCloud → AI-Kit Settings** and review the defaults.
4. Open:
   - **Media → Library** (for image metadata generation), or
   - the **Gutenberg editor** (for the editor tools and blocks).

* OpenAPI spec: https://wpsuite.io/.well-known/openapi.yaml

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= What browsers are supported? =
Free (local-only) mode requires a recent **desktop Chrome** with on-device AI enabled (availability depends on Chrome version, OS, and device capabilities).

= Does AI-Kit send my content to third parties? =
In Free mode, AI-Kit is designed to run locally in the browser. If you enable reCAPTCHA or configure backend usage (Pro), the plugin will perform external network calls — see “External Services” below.

= What happens if on-device AI is not available in my browser? =
In Free mode, AI features that require on-device AI may be unavailable. In Pro, you can enable **backend-only** or **backend fallback** so features keep working even when on-device AI is unavailable.

= Do I need API keys? =
No for Free local-only mode. For Pro backend usage, your backend may require authentication depending on how you deployed/configured it (API key / IAM / JWT / Cognito).

= Will it work with static exports? =
Yes. AI-Kit runs in the browser.

* In local-only mode, all processing happens on-device in Chrome.
* In backend-only / backend-fallback modes (Pro), requests are sent directly from the visitor’s browser (front-end) or the admin/editor UI to your configured API endpoint.

WordPress/PHP does not proxy these calls — your site does not need server-side connectivity to the API, but the user’s browser must be able to reach the endpoint.
This also means your hosting environment does not need outbound access to the AI API; only the client’s network matters.

= Does this work outside Gutenberg? =
Yes — Pro includes the **[smartcloud-ai-kit-feature]** shortcode so you can use AI-Kit Feature in other editors/builders. Developers can also integrate the JavaScript APIs directly.

= 1.1.6 =
DocSearch & AI Feature: More accurate handling of property default values.

= 1.1.5 =
DocSearch: More accurate citation highlights. If a server-side span.end lands mid-word, it is adjusted to the start of the next word.
Backend: Improved span correction logic for span.start / span.end to keep citation ranges aligned with the generated response text.

= 1.1.4 =
DocSearch: Show the “Subcategories” label only when there are subcategory options for the selected categories.
Chatbot: Reset confirmation is now a true modal and overlays the chat content properly.
KB Admin: Fix missing WP Admin REST API changes from the previous release (restores full functionality).

= 1.1.3 =
DocSearch: Show the Filters section only when real categories or tags exist.
DocSearch/Backend: When enableUserFilters is on, always send userSelectedCategories (even as an empty array) so backend filtering is disabled and search runs across all documents.
DocSearch: Reset KB session when top-level categories change to avoid responses influenced by previous KB RAG context.

= 1.1.2 =
DocSearch: Optional user-facing search filters (categories/subcategories/tags). When enabled, backend search uses the filter parameters sent by the user instead of the query builder’s auto-generated KB filter.

= 1.1.1 =
DocSearch: showOpenButton support across Gutenberg block, shortcode, and Elementor widget.
Admin: Toggleable debug logging (writes to wp-content/debug.log when WP_DEBUG + WP_DEBUG_LOG are enabled).
KB Admin: Embedded post updates now trigger KB source regeneration / “needs review” when published as KB content.

= 1.1.0 =
Feature: Knowledge Base Admin — manage KB sources directly from WordPress (enable posts/pages as KB sources, generate markdown, and publish documents to your backend).
Feature: New “KB Source” bulk actions in the Posts list to quickly enable/disable items as knowledge base sources.
Feature: Full Elementor support for AI Feature and DocSearch (dedicated Elementor widgets, matching the Gutenberg blocks + shortcodes).
Feature: New “KB Section” block + Elementor widget to control KB ingestion per section:
- Exclude content from the Knowledge Base
- Split sections into separate KB documents with custom taxonomy/metadata
- Mark sections as overrideable so regenerated markdown won’t overwrite them

= 1.0.8 =
Fix: Improved WebCrypto polyfill initialization so AI-Kit works reliably even in insecure (non-HTTPS) environments where crypto.subtle may be unavailable during early boot.

= 1.0.7 =
Improved: Doc Search modal view now uses a wider dialog for a better search-focused layout.

= 1.0.6 =
PRO: Added **Doc Search** (Knowledge Base research) UI surface:
* New **AI-Kit Doc Search** Gutenberg block (`smartcloud-ai-kit/doc-search`)
* New **[smartcloud-ai-kit-doc-search]** shortcode for Classic Editor / page builders
* New developer helper: `renderSearchComponent()` (UI injection) and `sendSearchMessage()` for programmatic KB search

= 1.0.5 =
Perf: Chatbot requests now reuse a successful reCAPTCHA verification for a short time window to reduce latency and verification costs.
Admin: Added a “reCAPTCHA chat verification window (seconds)” setting (default: 120s).

= 1.0.4 =
Fix: Fixed translation of some AI Feature results into the requested language. In certain cases the translation context (admin vs frontend) was missing, causing translations to be routed through the admin context unintentionally.

= 1.0.3 =
UX: During backend calls, AiFeature and AiChatbot now display the same user-friendly status messages as the on-device flow (e.g. “Generating text…” instead of “Sending request…” / “Waiting for backend…”).
Admin: The chatbot “Assistant is thinking…” text can be overridden in the admin UI.

= 1.0.2 =
Fixed the pre-run language detection/translation flow for AiFeature blocks so it now respects the configured context.

= 1.0.1 =
* Improved backend error diagnostics (including clearer reCAPTCHA failures)
* Added chat history retention controls + fixes for persisted image attachments/preview

= 1.0.0 =
* Initial release: Media Library metadata generation, Gutenberg tools, and onboarding UI.
* Pro features: Chatbot, frontend Feature block/shortcode, and backend-only/fallback hooks.
