## Description

Generate AI-powered featured images for your WordPress posts and pages.

**WordPress AI Client (recommended):** uses the provider you already configured 
under Settings  Connectors. No API key needed in the plugin — it works out of the
box with whichever provider your site uses.

**Direct provider support:** optionally connect to Google Gemini or OpenAI with 
your own API key for full control over model selection and image sizing.

**Features:**

 * Generate one image from the editor metabox or the post-list row action.
 * Bulk generate via the native Bulk Actions dropdown or the dedicated Bulk Generate
   screen.
 * Background queue processes images one at a time in the background — you can close
   the tab.
 * Scope selection: queue all posts, only those missing an image, or only broken/
   404 images.
 * Detect and fix ghost thumbnails (featured image set but file is missing/404).
 * Auto-generate on publish; scheduled hourly backfill (cron).
 * Customisable prompt template with {title}, {excerpt}, {category} placeholders,
   plus global style and negative prompt fields.
 * WP-CLI: `wp aitg generate` and `wp aitg test`.
 * API keys encrypted at rest; one-click Test Connection.
 * Diagnostics panel for troubleshooting.

Developer hooks: `aitg_prompt` (filter), `aitg_thumbnail_generated` (action), `aitg_request_timeout`(
filter), `aitg_queue_min_gap` (filter).

### Third-Party Services

This plugin connects to external AI services to generate images. **No data is sent
unless you initiate a generation.** When you do, the plugin sends the post title,
excerpt, and your prompt template to the selected provider. No personal user data,
cookies, or tracking information is transmitted.

#### WordPress AI Client (default)

When the “WordPress AI Client” provider is selected (the default), the plugin uses
WordPress core’s `wp_ai_client_prompt()` API introduced in WordPress 7.0. The AI
provider and credentials are managed by WordPress itself under Settings  Connectors.
The plugin does not connect to any external service directly in this mode — WordPress
core handles the connection. See your configured provider’s terms for details.

#### Google Gemini

When the “Google Gemini” provider is selected, the plugin connects to Google’s Generative
Language API.

 * **What is sent:** your prompt text (built from the post title, excerpt, and your
   template).
 * **When:** only when you click Generate or run a bulk/queue generation.
 * **Service:** Google Gemini (Generative Language API) — [https://ai.google.dev/](https://ai.google.dev/)
 * **Terms of Service:** [https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/terms](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/terms)
 * **Privacy Policy:** [https://policies.google.com/privacy](https://policies.google.com/privacy)

#### OpenAI

When the “OpenAI” provider is selected, the plugin connects to the OpenAI Images
API.

 * **What is sent:** your prompt text (built from the post title, excerpt, and your
   template).
 * **When:** only when you click Generate or run a bulk/queue generation.
 * **Service:** OpenAI Images API — [https://platform.openai.com/](https://platform.openai.com/)
 * **Terms of Use:** [https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use/](https://openai.com/policies/terms-of-use/)
 * **Privacy Policy:** [https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy/](https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy/)

## Installation

 1. Upload the `globe-boss-ai-image-generator` folder to /wp-content/plugins/.
 2. Activate the plugin.
 3. Go to GB AI Images  Settings and pick a provider:
 4.  * **WordPress AI Client** (default) — uses the provider configured in Settings
       Connectors. No key needed.
     * **Google Gemini** or **OpenAI** — paste your own API key and click Test Connection.
 5. Use GB AI Images  Bulk Generate to queue images, or the “Generate AI thumbnail”
    row action on individual posts.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin track users?

No. The plugin does not track visitors, set cookies, or collect any personal data.
It only sends post content (title and excerpt) to the selected AI provider when 
an administrator explicitly triggers image generation.

### Does it work without an API key?

Yes, when using the WordPress AI Client provider (the default). The site owner configures
their AI provider once under Settings  Connectors, and the plugin uses it with no
additional key.
