## Description

Apeari is an AI content editor for Gutenberg. Select a block, describe a change 
and review a private preview. Your live page changes only when you publish.

#### From an idea to an edit

 * Rewrite text and add supported native sections, buttons, images and galleries
   using existing WordPress media.
 * Preview, undo, redo and publish with conflict checks.
 * Generate draft pages/posts and optionally fill supported Yoast SEO, Rank Math
   or SEOPress fields.
 * A one-time guide can be reopened with the question-mark button at the top right.
 * Edit text, heading level, alignment and button links directly; duplicate, move
   or remove selected blocks in the private draft.

#### Try requests like these

 * “Rewrite this introduction to sound warmer.”
 * “Add a heading and a short paragraph below this section.”

These open-ended requests require an AI connection. Local demo mode accepts a small
set of example commands.

#### Choose your AI connection

The plugin is free; AI processing costs extra. Use your own OpenAI or Anthropic 
API key with a compatible JSON Schema model, billed by the provider, or an Apeari
account with paid service credits. Hosted requests use the verified domain’s token
balance; answers without changes may also consume credits. Local editing and preview
need no paid credits or subscription.

Hosted AI needs a verified HTTPS website and a **Lite installation token**. See 
the installation steps below. AI requests require explicit consent in Settings >
Apeari.

#### Scope and requirements

This is the Gutenberg-only edition, also called Apeari Lite. It supports an allowlist
of native blocks and preserves existing unsupported blocks. It does not edit theme
files, templates or plugin code, generate executable code, add custom HTML or shortcodes,
upload images or download remote media. Existing-page editing does not change publication
status. Access is limited to administrators. Apeari PRO is a separate download and
cannot be active alongside this edition.

### Source code and development

Editable source is bundled in src/, views/, assets/js/ and assets/css/. editor.js
and bridge.js load directly without compilation or minification. See source.txt 
for development, packaging and asset attribution.

Direct provider APIs support the declared WordPress 6.5 minimum; the core AI Client
requires WordPress 7.0. Credentials and consent are configured in Settings > Apeari.

### External services and privacy

Fonts and editor assets are bundled locally. No analytics, licensing requests or
background installation reports. AI is disabled until an administrator configures
a provider and explicitly consents. Submitting an AI request then contacts the selected
service:

 * Apeari hosted AI: https://apeari.com/v1/lite/edits
    OpenAI-powered, restricted
   Gutenberg edit proposals and draft content. Requires an account, a verified HTTPS
   domain, Lite installation token and paid service credits. A useful answer without
   changes can consume credits. Terms and data processing agreement: https://apeari.
   com/regulamin Privacy: https://apeari.com/polityka-prywatnosci
 * OpenAI: https://api.openai.com/v1/responses
    Terms: https://openai.com/policies/
   services-agreement/ Privacy: https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy/
 * Anthropic: https://api.anthropic.com/v1/messages
    Terms: https://www.anthropic.
   com/legal/commercial-terms Privacy: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/privacy

Requests contain your instruction, up to six recent messages and necessary selected-
page block context, including text, attributes and supported styles. Image titles/
alt text and URLs inserted into a message may be included; image files are not sent.
Draft generation sends the brief, language, sequence number and previous generated
titles. Editing requests can also synchronize a structured theme index: relative
file names, hashes, CSS selectors and property names, template rendering markers,
design settings and supported block capabilities. Full theme files, executable source
bodies, other pages’ content and provider keys are not sent to hosted Apeari AI.
Apeari stores this index separately for each domain and edition so later sessions
can reuse it; changes to theme content or effective settings create a new revision.
Local knowledge is stored in a non-autoloaded WordPress option and removed on uninstall.
Own-key mode sends selected knowledge directly to the selected provider. The site
owner must have authority to share the data and determine applicable processing 
terms. Do not submit unauthorized confidential or personal information.

Hosted Apeari results are retained for up to 30 days for retries; billing records
follow the service privacy policy. Both the API and WordPress validate hosted operations
against an allowlist. Disabling service consent stops new calls. Contact the service
for account/data erasure. Direct providers’ retention follows their terms.

Domain verification is administrator-initiated: Apeari calls the fixed HTTPS WordPress/
apeari/v1/ownership endpoint using a single-use secret valid for 15 minutes. The
endpoint provides no editing access. Multisite proof generation requires a superadministrator.
Installation tokens and provider keys are encrypted in the database using WordPress
salts and remain server-side. A local PRO migration may copy settings into separate
Lite options, but does not enable AI consent or migrate drafts.

Each local conversation message expires seven days after saving; refresh, new messages
and undo/redo do not renew old messages. Generation metadata expires seven days 
after the last generation step/status change, not the last view. Private editing
sessions expire after two hours of inactivity. Expired messages are excluded from
AI context, restored sessions and exports. Physical removal uses scheduled WordPress
cleanup, which needs site visits or system cron. sessionStorage holds a per-tab 
session identifier. A per-user preference remembers dismissal of the optional PRO
introduction. Restoring conversation history is optional.

Settings > Apeari can erase your local editor data on the current site. WordPress
personal data export/erasure includes Apeari data across multisite sites with pagination.
User removal clears that site’s private editor data; network deletion clears it 
across sites. Generated drafts are ordinary posts subject to your site’s retention
policy. Uninstall removes Apeari settings, secrets, history and cleanup tasks; it
keeps pages, posts, media and PRO data. The bundled privacy.txt contains further
implementation details.

### Updates

## Installation

 1. Install and activate Apeari. Deactivate Apeari PRO first.
 2. Follow the setup wizard, available again in Settings > Apeari. Choose local demo
    mode or connect AI.
 3. For hosted AI, generate WordPress ownership proof, verify it in your Apeari dashboard
    and enter a new Lite installation token. Add service credits to the verified site.
    Alternatively, enter your own OpenAI or Anthropic key and compatible model.
 4. Read the data-sharing information and explicitly enable AI consent. Demo requires
    no AI consent.
 5. Open Appearance > Apeari, select a page and supported block, then describe a change.
    Or open the draft content generator.
 6. Review the private preview before publishing.

## FAQ

### Is an account or payment required?

The plugin and local editor are free. AI processing is paid separately. Only hosted
AI needs an Apeari account and service credits; own-key mode and local demo do not
need an Apeari account.

### Are changes published automatically?

No. Edits stay in private preview. Generated pages/posts start as drafts.

### What can this edition edit?

Supported native Gutenberg content, not proprietary page-builder layouts, themes,
templates or plugin code. Add images to WordPress Media first; Apeari does not download
remote images.

### What if another editor changes the page?

Publication checks content hashes and editing locks, and rejects stale changes.
