Environment variables

AI_CHAT_BASE_URL=https://pointerdev.ai
AI_CHAT_PROJECT_ID=your-project-uuid
AI_CHAT_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=pk_...
AI_CHAT_SECRET_KEY=sk_... # keep server-side only
AI_CHAT_END_USER_TOKEN=   # optional test-only fallback

Quick usage

use PointerDev\AIChat\Facades\AIChat;

$result = AIChat::chat([
    'message' => 'Hello from Laravel',
    'anon_uid' => 'demo-anon-user',
    'metadata' => ['source' => 'laravel-app'],
]);

$answer = $result['answer'] ?? null;

login_required projects

use PointerDev\AIChat\Facades\AIChat;

$client = AIChat::withEndUserToken('<END_USER_JWT>');

// Exchange once for short-lived runtime session token
$client->exchangeSessionToken();

$result = $client->chat([
    'message' => 'Hello from authenticated user',
]);

Runtime Session Token Flow (recommended)

use PointerDev\AIChat\Facades\AIChat;

$client = AIChat::withEndUserToken($endUserJwtFromYourBackend);

// Exchange end-user token for runtime session token
$sessionAuth = $client->exchangeSessionToken();

// Chat now prefers runtime session token automatically
$result = $client->chat([
    'message' => 'Hello from authenticated user',
    'metadata' => ['source' => 'laravel-app'],
]);

// Optional explicit refresh/revoke
$client->refreshSessionToken();
$client->revokeSessionToken();

Phase 3 auth adapter (Laravel middleware)

The package now provides middleware alias ai-chat.runtime-session that:

• reads Auth::user()
• mints a PointerDev AI end-user token server-side using AI_CHAT_SECRET_KEY
• exchanges/refreshes runtime session token
• persists runtime session token in Laravel session storage
• binds stored runtime session state to the authenticated user identity

Identity note: Laravel derives end-user sub from the auth identifier. WordPress defaults to blog_id:user_id for multisite-aware separation.

Register middleware in your route group:

Route::middleware(['web', 'auth', 'ai-chat.runtime-session'])->group(function () {
    Route::get('/chat', function () {
        $result = app(\PointerDev\AIChat\AIChatClient::class)->chat([
            'message' => 'Hello from middleware flow',
            'metadata' => ['source' => 'laravel-runtime-adapter'],
        ]);

        return response()->json($result);
    });
});

Optional logout cleanup (revokes runtime token):

app(\PointerDev\AIChat\Auth\AIChatRuntimeSessionManager::class)
    ->revokeForRequest(request());
