## Description

LinkTiller scans published posts and pages, builds an internal-link graph, and brings
content with no incoming internal links to the top. Scanning is read-only. When 
an administrator asks for suggestions, LinkTiller sends a limited source excerpt
and a list of real candidate posts to the configured AI endpoint.

The model proposes; LinkTiller verifies; you decide. A post changes only after you
approve a specific suggestion.

Suggestions are constrained before you see them:

 * Anchor phrases must be copied verbatim from the source content.
 * Targets must be real posts from the scanned site.
 * Existing links and duplicate targets are rejected.
 * Every insertion requires a separate administrator click.
 * DOM-safe insertion skips text already inside a link.
 * Undo restores the exact content saved before the first LinkTiller insertion.

#### Bring your own endpoint

LinkTiller has no preset remote endpoint. Configure OpenAI or another OpenAI-compatible
provider using your own API key and model name, or use a local endpoint such as 
LM Studio or Ollama.

LinkTiller does not proxy AI requests through Sai Studios and does not include an
API key. Provider charges, retention, and privacy terms depend on the endpoint you
choose.

#### Focused by design

LinkTiller does not bulk-edit posts, rewrite links on the public site, crawl for
broken links, or promise search-ranking changes. It focuses on one reviewable workflow:
scan, request suggestions, insert one approved link, and undo when needed.

### External services

LinkTiller contacts an AI service only after an administrator configures an endpoint
and clicks “Review link suggestions.”

For each suggestion request, the plugin sends:

 * The source post title.
 * Up to 4,000 characters of plain-text source content.
 * Up to 40 candidate post URLs, titles, short excerpts, and orphan status.
 * The model name configured in LinkTiller settings.

If an API key is configured, it is sent in the Authorization header to that endpoint.
The key is stored in the site’s WordPress options table. It is never sent to Sai
Studios.

If you configure OpenAI (`https://api.openai.com/v1`), use of that endpoint is governed
by OpenAI’s policies:

 * Service agreement: https://openai.com/policies/services-agreement/
 * Privacy and data information: https://openai.com/policies/

If you replace the Base URL, the selected provider’s terms and privacy policy apply.
A local LM Studio or Ollama endpoint can keep the request on the machine hosting
that endpoint, depending on your network configuration.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `linktiller` folder through Plugins  Add Plugin  Upload Plugin, or copy
    it to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 2. Activate LinkTiller.
 3. Open LinkTiller  Settings and configure an API key, Base URL, model, post types,
    and suggestion limit.
 4. Open LinkTiller and click “Scan published content.”
 5. Request suggestions for a post, review each one, and insert only the links you 
    want.

## FAQ

### Does LinkTiller edit posts automatically?

No. Scanning is read-only. Each suggested link is inserted only after an administrator
clicks Insert.

### Can I undo an insertion?

Yes. LinkTiller keeps one backup per edited post. Undo restores that exact content
and removes the backup.

### How many links can it suggest?

You can configure between 1 and 10 suggestions per post. All values are included
in this plugin without a paid key.

### What does the AI request cost?

LinkTiller itself is free. Your selected provider may charge for API use. Local 
models can avoid provider fees but still use your own hardware and electricity.

### Does my content pass through Sai Studios?

No. Requests go directly from your WordPress site to the Base URL configured in 
LinkTiller settings.
