## Description

Slug Automator automatically generates slugs from WordPress post titles using the
[AI Client](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2026/03/24/introducing-the-ai-client-in-wordpress-7-0/)
introduced in WordPress 7.0.

Writing post titles in Japanese or any other non-English language? Slug Automator
uses AI to translate them into clean, English URL-friendly slugs — no manual input
required. It only runs when the slug field is empty, so any slug you set yourself
will never be overwritten.

Because it relies on the WordPress AI Client, it works with any AI provider configured
on your site (Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, and more).
