AI 1.5.0Latest
- Added
- New Experiment: Content Verification, that adds read-only detection of C2PA Content Credentials in uploaded JPEG/PNG/WebP images (#459).
- New Experiment: Text to Speech, that allows you to generate audio for a specific post and then render audio controls on the frontend (#888).
- New Experiment: MCP Access, that installs and activates the MCP Adapter plugin from WordPress.org when enabled, and adds a Tools → MCP Access screen to control which abilities are exposed to AI agents over MCP (#992).
- New Experiment: WebMCP, that lets an agent browser work in the block editor through document.modelContext, with tools that set the title, insert and edit blocks, save and publish, with every change visible on the page as it happens (#1081).
- New Experiment: Revision Change Summary, that summarizes what changed between two revisions of a post on the visual and classic revisions screens (#1159).
- New Experiment: Block Container Label Generation, that generates concise block container labels in List View and the block Rename modal (#1175, (#1218).
- A post’s Markdown document (?output_format=markdown) has approved comments appended (#1121).
- New background sync processing to handle generating embeddings for posts and terms (#1135).
- “Generate title” button in the post Rename modal (#1140).
- Learn WordPress AI course links to the plugin readmes and the AI settings header for easier access to course resources (#1154).
- A neutral badge icon to thumbnails of images with C2PA data detected in the Media Library grid view (#1164).
- An ai.abilitiesExplorer.fields JavaScript filter for adding read-only table columns to the Abilities Explorer page (#1181).
- Clarified which parts of the plugin are stable Features vs Experiments, flag Experiments that run automatically in Settings > AI, and show when each runs, what it sends to your AI provider, and how many requests it makes from an info icon, the readme, and docs (#1190).
- Featured Connector plugins (Mistral and Vercel AI Gateway) on Settings > Connectors, sorted by name, plus a wpai_featured_connectors filter to change the list (#1212).
- Changed
- Update the wording in our capability check notice and change that from an error to a warning (#935).
- Content Translation now translates any block that has rich text instead of just paragraphs and headings (#1009).
- Move the Key Encryption experiment onto the new Secrets API feature plugin with backward-compatible fallback and migration (#1107).
- The /<post>/feed/markdown/ no longer works and serves a 404 (#1121).
- The core/content-query, core/settings-get, and core/users-query abilities now set the public meta flag added in WordPress 7.1 (#1122).
- Summarize enabled and disabled experiments in the AI Status dashboard widget to keep it compact as more experiments are added (#1155).
- Rebuilt the Abilities Explorer on DataViews and added three ai/v1 REST routes to retrieve and run abilities (#1181).
- Replace the “Purge All Logs” button in the AI Request Logs screen with a control to delete logs older than 30 days, 90 days or 1 year, or all logs, and add a before_days argument to DELETE /ai/v1/logs (#1182).
- The core/settings-get ability now matches WordPress core. Settings use their REST API names (for example, title instead of blogname), and a value that does not match its schema is left out. Breaking changes: Some schema fields have changed so ensure you are using the correct field names in your abi…
- The core/users-query ability now matches WordPress core. The input is now where, fields, and pagination, and the output is always items and pagination. Users are looked up through the ids, slugs, or usernames lists in where, and lookup by email is no longer supported. Results are ordered by usernam…
- The core/content-query ability now matches WordPress core. The input is now where, fields, and pagination, and the output is always items and pagination. Posts are looked up through the ids or slugs lists in where, which also requires the post type in type. Posts are filtered by author through wher…
- The date and modified fields of core/content-query return site and gmt dates instead of local and gmt. Breaking change: Ensure you are using the correct field names in your ability calls (#1235).
- The registered_date field of core/users-query is replaced by a registered object with site and gmt dates. Note that all 3 core abilities have now identical shape like these shipping in WordPress 7.2. Breaking change: Ensure you are using the correct field names in your ability calls (#1237).
- Removed
AI 1.4.0
- Added
- When comment moderation is run, calculate a value score, providing a relevance signal (0–1) for each comment based on how substantive and on-topic it is relative to the post it was left on. Show this score in a new column on the comment screen (#681).
- New experiment, Markdown Feeds, that creates markdown feeds at /feed/markdown/ (available in every feed context) and of individual posts and pages via ?output_format=markdown (#855).
- User-triggered retry for Content Translation if it fails (#941).
- Limit comment moderation bulk analysis queue size (#972).
- Storage and CRUD layer for embedding vectors (new wpai_embeddings table) that can be used to recording the provider and model alongside every vector (#976).
- 9 new default target languages to the Content Translation experiment (#986).
- Guideline categories support to the Content Translation Ability (#987).
- New Vector_Math and Vector_Ranker classes, allowing users to run similarity and ranking queries against vectors (#993).
- Loading indicator for type-ahead suggestion requests (#1029).
- Integrate Alt Text Generation with the Image block’s decorative setting (#1031).
- Changed
- Bump minimum supported WordPress version to 7.0.3 (#1001).
- Display specific taxonomy labels in Content Classification notice error messages instead of generic terminology (#916).
- Show a notice and disable title translation when the post title is too short (#967).
- Update to the latest version of the embedding code from the PHP AI Client (#975).
- Our generate_embeddings helper function now requires a specific embedding model. Pass model (a model ID or a ModelInterface instance) and, for a model ID, the provider that offers it. This is a breaking change for anyone that happened to start using this function (#975).
- Update Settings vertical ellipsis icon to tool icon (#1001).
- The core/read-content and core/read-users abilities are renamed to core/content-query and core/users-query. The old names keep working as deprecated aliases for now (#1002).
- Use gpt-image-2.5-flare as our default OpenAI image generation model (#1023).
- The core/read-settings ability has been renamed to core/settings-get. The old name keeps working as a deprecated alias for now (#1087).
- Deprecated
- The ai/get-post-details ability. Use the single-post mode of core/content-query instead (#1002).
- Removed
- Unnecessary URL validation that is now handled by WordPress core (#1011).
- The Enable AI header toggle from the AI settings page (#985).
- Fixed
- Ensure focus moves to the Accept button when content generation completes in the Content Resizing modal (#917).
- Increase the default request timeout from 5 seconds to 30 seconds when Core revalidates API keys. If this validation request times out, Core will delete the API key so this is an attempt to fix that (#947).
- Cached the active SEO plugin detection – with a TTL and immediate invalidation on any plugin activation/deactivation – so meta description meta-key lookups no longer re-scan active plugins on every request (#973).
