## Description

Npcink Cloud Addon connects a local WordPress site to `npcink-cloud`.

It stores the Cloud Base URL and Cloud API Key, parses Cloud-issued keys, signs 
runtime requests, probes health, reads Cloud entitlement summaries, and can upload
metadata-only plugin behavior events after explicit administrator opt-in.

It does not execute WordPress writes, approve proposals, own billing truth, or manage
prompts, routers, presets, workflow/task queues, scheduler truth, or workflow engines.
Its observability buffer is only a bounded delivery buffer for monitoring metadata
and is not Core audit, proposal, execution, billing, or workflow truth.

For media derivative jobs, local host code may pass the read-only
 npcink-abilities-
toolkit/build-media-derivative-cloud-request ability output and a short TTL source
artifact descriptor to the addon for signed Cloud dispatch. The addon requires verified
Cloud settings, rejects credential-bearing ability payloads, and returns proposal-
ready data with `final_write_owner=local_wordpress_host`. Final review, recording,
replacement, rollback, and WordPress writes remain in the local host/Core approval
path.

For plugin monitoring, the addon may upload operational metadata such as plugin

slug/version, event kind, status, timing, error code, route, proposal id, ability
id, correlation id, and counters. It must not upload prompts, generated content,
article body content, media bytes, raw request or response payloads, provider credentials,
Cloud API secrets, passwords, cookies, nonces, Authorization headers, database names,
table names, or filesystem paths.

### External Services

This plugin connects to the Npcink Cloud service configured by the site administrator
through the Cloud Base URL setting.

The plugin contacts the configured Cloud service only after an administrator enters
a Cloud Base URL and Cloud API Key, saves the settings, verifies the connection,
or a local Npcink component explicitly uses the Cloud runtime client.

Requests may include the configured site identifier, key identifier, request timestamp,
nonce, trace identifier, idempotency key, HMAC signature headers, runtime request
payloads supplied by local Npcink components, metadata-only monitoring events when
enabled, and read-only requests for health, run status, run result, usage statistics,
entitlement summaries, and observability summaries. The stored Cloud API Key secret
is used server-side for request signing and is not printed in wp-admin.

For host-supplied media derivative runtime jobs, requests may also include a
 short
TTL source artifact descriptor and derivative request parameters from the local 
read-only ability output. Cloud credentials and signed headers are added by the 
addon transport and are not copied into the ability payload.

The configured Cloud service is responsible for its own privacy policy, terms of
service, data retention, and account/key issuance. Because the Cloud Base URL is
administrator-configured, site administrators should only connect this plugin to
a Cloud service whose terms of service, privacy policy, data retention policy, and
account/key issuance process they have reviewed.

## Installation

 1. Place this directory in `wp-content/plugins/npcink-cloud-addon`.
 2. Activate `Npcink Cloud Addon`.
 3. Open `Npcink > Cloud Addon`.
 4. Enter Cloud Base URL and Cloud API Key.
 5. Click `Save and Verify`.

## FAQ

### Does this plugin create Cloud API Keys?

No. Keys are issued by Npcink Cloud.

### Do I need a Npcink Cloud account?

Yes. A site administrator needs a Cloud Base URL and a Cloud API Key issued by the
configured Npcink Cloud service before the connector can verify successfully.

### Does this plugin display the Cloud secret?

No. The secret is stored for server-side signing only and is never printed on the
settings page.

### When does the plugin contact Npcink Cloud?

The plugin contacts the configured Cloud service when an administrator saves and
verifies Cloud settings, when a local Npcink component explicitly uses the Cloud
runtime client, when entitlement or status summaries are refreshed, or when optional
monitoring is enabled and flushed.

### Is monitoring enabled by default?

No. Monitoring requires explicit administrator opt-in and verified Cloud settings.

### What data can monitoring send?

Monitoring sends operational metadata only, such as plugin slug/version, event kind,
status, timing, error code, route, proposal id, ability id, correlation id, counters,
and latency.

### Does monitoring upload prompts, content, or raw payloads?

No. Metadata-only monitoring is designed not to upload prompts, generated content,
article body content, media bytes, raw request or response payloads, provider credentials,
Cloud API secrets, passwords, cookies, nonces, Authorization headers, database names,
table names, or filesystem paths.

### Can media derivative jobs send media data to Cloud?

Only when local host code explicitly invokes the media derivative transport. In 
that case, the request may include a short TTL source artifact descriptor and bounded
derivative parameters from a local read-only ability output. Cloud credentials and
signed headers are added by the addon transport and are not copied into the ability
payload.

### Does this plugin write Cloud recommendations into WordPress?

No. Final WordPress writes must go through local Core proposal, preflight, approval,
and apply paths.

### Where can I review the Cloud service terms and privacy information?

Terms of Service: https://cloud.npc.ink/terms/en/terms.html

Privacy Policy: https://cloud.npc.ink/terms/en/privacy.html

Data Retention: https://cloud.npc.ink/terms/en/data-retention.html
