AI Engine – The Chatbot, AI Framework & MCP for WordPress vs LLM Moderator For wpForo

AI Engine connects WordPress with AI models. One install, stable connectors for every major AI provider: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, and more. Build intelligent chatbots, generate content, create AI forms, and automate tasks. All from your WordPress dashboard. Please make sure you read the disclaimer. For more information, check the official website of AI Engine. Quick Intro Hello! ☀️ I built AI Engine to bring OpenAI, Anthropic, and other AI models into WordPress. Create chatbots that understand your content, generate posts in your voice, translate instantly, create images, or build custom AI tools. For developers: internal APIs, REST endpoints, function calling, and MCP support. Build AI features, automate workflows, or create SaaS applications on WordPress. Feeling overwhelmed? 🤪 Start simple: Create a chatbot. Then connect Claude Code, Claude, ChatGPT, or OpenClaw through MCP, giving AI direct access to your site. Desktop clients can connect via OAuth: users just paste the MCP URL, sign in to WordPress, and approve. No shared token to manage. Add SEO Engine and watch it manage SEO in ways you never imagined. You can even connect AI Engine to multiple WordPress sites and manage them all through conversation. You’ll be having a blast before you’ve explored everything. You’ll probably spot bits of AI Engine in plenty of other AI plugins, code and UI alike. Flattering, really… or fishy? 🤣 But only AI Engine keeps pushing forward with real care for its community, a drive toward perfection, and the patience to get the details right.

Developer Friendly Clean APIs, extensive hooks, and MCP support. Build custom AI features or entire SaaS applications on WordPress. Real MCP, for Real WordPress You may have heard of MCP Adapter, built by the WordPress team primarily for their WordPress.com hosting service. It’s essentially a thin layer on top of the REST API. AI Engine takes a different approach: its MCP tools are specifically crafted for AI agents, with rich context, smart defaults, and practical actions that go far beyond what a generic REST API wrapper can offer. And it works on any WordPress installation, regardless of your hosting provider. AI Engine also exposes its REST API as MCP tools if you want that, but the dedicated tools are where the real power is. Privacy First IP hashing, GDPR tools, secure file handling, and session-based tracking. You control your data. Constantly Evolving Weekly updates based on real user feedback. We listen, we improve. My Dream for AI I am excited about AI, but I believe we need to use it with intention and clarity. Social media showed us how powerful tools can reshape our lives in ways we never expected, sometimes for the better, sometimes not. I want to avoid repeating those mistakes. AI should help us remove the meaningless, tedious work or enhance the work we enjoy. Modern tools should give us more time for what truly matters: spending beautiful moments with the people we love! 💕 Disclaimer AI Engine is a plugin that helps you to connect your websites to AI services.

When configured with a valid OpenRouter API key, the plugin sends moderation requests to analyze forum posts in real-time. The query is made to this url: ‘https://openrouter.ai/api/v1/chat/completions’ Data Transmission and Privacy What Data Is Sent: – Only the user’s post content is transmitted to OpenRouter – A moderation prompt configured by the administrator precedes the post content – No personally identifiable information (name, username, or user ID) is included in the post content – Each post from non-muted users triggers exactly one API request Current Implementation: The plugin now includes Context Aware Moderation, which analyzes posts with surrounding context (previous and next posts) for better accuracy while maintaining user privacy with aliases. Usernames are replaced with aliases to protect user privacy while providing the AI with necessary conversational context. About OpenRouter OpenRouter is an AI routing service that provides access to multiple LLM models from various providers. When using this plugin, your data passes through OpenRouter to the selected AI model provider. Important Links: – OpenRouter Privacy Policy: https://openrouter.ai/privacy – OpenRouter Terms of Service: https://openrouter.ai/terms – OpenRouter Data Collection Policy: https://openrouter.ai/docs/guides/privacy/data-collection AI Provider Policies: Each LLM provider (such as OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, etc.) has its own data handling policies. For information on how different providers process data, see OpenRouter’s provider logging documentation: https://openrouter.ai/docs/guides/privacy/logging Optional Data Sharing You may optionally send: – Your site’s URL (via HTTP-Referer header) – Application title (via X-Title header) These optional fields help OpenRouter rank applications and improve service quality. Technical Implementation API Request Structure: The plugin sends POST requests to OpenRouter (‘https://openrouter.ai/api/v1/chat/completions’) with the following JSON payload structure: $body = json_encode( [ 'model' => $model, 'messages' => [ ['role' => 'user', 'content' => $json_prompt], ], 'max_tokens' => 1000, // Maximum tokens in response (50-80 is typically sufficient) 'temperature' => 0.1, 'response_format' => ['type' => 'json_object'], ] ); Response Expectation: The plugin expects OpenRouter to return a JSON object containing moderation results with ‘type’ and ‘reason’ keys as specified in your moderation prompt. Configuration Options: – The plugin uses default provider selection parameters. For advanced routing configuration, see: https://openrouter.ai/docs/guides/routing/provider-selection, though these cannot be changed from default besides what is already configured above – You can customize request processing through the OpenRouter dashboard, including model selection and privacy policies on a per-key basis: https://openrouter.ai/settings/privacy – You can configure your key, and set limits and alerts as needed – With this plugin, you can also set a timeout for the OpenRouter query from 10-300 seconds Requirements A valid OpenRouter API key must be configured in the plugin settings Your OpenRouter account must have sufficient credits for API usage Your prompt must specifically ask for a JSON format response with ‘type’ key and optionally ‘reason’ key, no other formats are accepted
