Every prompt flows through WordPress core, every provider is a Connector you already configured under **Settings Connectors**, and every action it exposes is a registered Ability that other plugins (and other AI agents) can call. There is no other plugin on wordpress.org that builds on `wp_ai_client_prompt()` today. Chagency is the reference case: a small, native chatbot that proves the framework works, ships zero vendor SDKs, and grows alongside the Abilities API into a real agent. It runs in the WordPress admin and, when you turn it on, on every page of your public site. The name (chat + ai + ency) is meant as a small bridge between the new AI primitives shipped with WordPress and the broader world of chat and agents. It starts as a chatbot today and turns into an agent tomorrow, without a rename. ### 🪨 Built on WordPress, period Chagency relies entirely on what WordPress 7 ships in core: * `wp_ai_client_prompt()`, the AI Client API. * `wp_get_connectors()`, the Connectors API. * `wp_register_ability()` / `wp_get_ability()`, the Abilities API. * `@wordpress/components`, `@wordpress/element`, `@wordpress/boot`, the Gutenberg toolkit. That is the entire dependency surface. **No bundled AI vendor SDKs, no third-party JavaScript libraries beyond the Gutenberg stack, no telemetry, no phone-home.** The plugin stays small on purpose: fewer moving parts means less friction, fewer security holes, less to break when WordPress, browsers, or providers change. You will need at least one AI provider plugin (e.g. _AI Provider for Anthropic_, _AI Provider for Google_, _AI Provider for OpenAI_) to talk to a model. That is WordPress 7’s architecture: providers are separate plugins that register a Connector. They are not a Chagency dependency. 💡 **Tip:** For the smoothest setup, install [AI Engine](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ai-engine/). It registers every AI provider it manages as a Connector, so a single configuration covers all your WordPress 7 AI plugins (including Chagency). Every request then flows through one clean, unified system. ### 🪄 What you get * A floating chat panel pinned to the bottom-right of every page (admin and / or public site, controlled by two independent toggles). * A single settings page under **Settings Chagency**, with the bare minimum: where to show the chatbot, the chat title, the greeting, the system instruction, and the model preference. * Live updates: flipping a toggle in Settings shows or hides the launcher immediately on the same page, no reload needed. * Per-provider **Test** buttons that fire a canary prompt and report round-trip time. * Conversation persistence in your browser’s localStorage, scoped per user. * Placeholder expansion (`{user_name}`, `{site_name}`, `{current_page}`, `{current_url}`,`{ user_role}`, `{site_url}`) so the assistant always knows who and where it is. * Exposed as an Ability (`chagency/send-message`) so other plugins, MCP clients, and AI agents can invoke Chagency directly. ### 🚀 Getting started 1. Install and activate **Chagency**. 2. Install and configure at least one AI provider plugin under **Settings Connectors**( we recommend [AI Engine](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ai-engine/), which exposes all its providers as Connectors at once). 3. Click the chat launcher in the bottom-right of any admin page and start talking. 4. Want it on the public site too? Open **Settings Chagency** and flip the second toggle. ### 🙋 Frequently Asked Questions #### Why “Chagency”? It’s a portmanteau of _chat_, _AI_, and a bit of _agent_. Not “agency” in the sense of a marketing shop. The plugin starts as a minimal chatbot for the new WordPress 7 AI framework and grows alongside the Abilities API into a true agent. #### Does it need WordPress 7? Yes. It uses `wp_ai_client_prompt()`, `wp_get_connectors()`, and the Abilities API, all added in WordPress 7.0. On older versions it refuses to boot and tells you why. #### Which AI providers are supported? Whatever you configure under **Settings Connectors**. Chagency is provider-agnostic. Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, or any third-party Connector are treated equally. #### Can visitors on the front end use it? Yes. Open **Settings Chagency** and turn on _Show on the public site_. The chat then appears for every visitor, signed in or not. #### Does it store my conversations? No. Conversations live only in your own browser (localStorage, per user). Hit _Reset_ in the panel to clear them. Nothing is stored server-side. #### Can I use it as a building block in my own plugin? Yes. The `chagency/send-message` Ability is registered on `wp_abilities_api_init` and can be called with `wp_get_ability( 'chagency/send-message' )->execute( array(' message' => '...' ) )`. ### Source code The unminified React / JavaScript source is shipped inside the plugin folder under` src/`, alongside the compiled output in `build/`. Public source repository: https:// github.com/jordymeow/chagency To rebuild from source: ``` pnpm install && pnpm run build ``` The build is `@wordpress/scripts` (webpack) with no custom plugins or transforms. ## གཏུབ་རེིས། * [[ * The floating chat panel open on an admin page, native WP 7 Gutenberg look. * [[ * The settings screen under **Settings Chagency**, with per-provider _Test_ buttons. * [[ ## གདེང་འཇོག ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/7fd0db6b7cc94854050dc68325a632244c35e2b497fede26f1b3631c79f5821e? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[The 1st and only chatbot to use the AI Client](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-1st-and-only-chatbot-to-use-the-ai-client/)󠁿 [Jordy Meow](https://profiles.wordpress.org/tigroumeow/) 2026 ལོའི་ཟླ 6 ཚེས 4 ཉིན། Nobody cares. Or maybe some do. I do! 😼 The first and only chatbot (as of today) to use the AI Client that ships with WordPress (from v7). This chatbot is perfect for testing the AI Client and the AI providers built for it.
