Part of the AI Building Blocks for WordPress initiative

An AI client and API for WordPress to communicate with any generative AI models of various capabilities using a uniform API.

Built on top of the PHP AI Client, adapted for the WordPress ecosystem.

Features

• WordPress-native Prompt Builder: Fluent API for building and configuring AI prompts, built directly on top of the PHP AI Client while following WordPress Coding Standards and best practices.
• Admin Settings Screen: Integrated settings screen in WP Admin to provision AI provider API credentials.
• Automatic Credential Wiring: Automatic wiring up of AI provider API credentials based on storage in a WordPress database option.
• PSR-compliant HTTP Client: HTTP client implementation using the WordPress HTTP API, fully compatible with PSR standards.

Installation and Configuration

1. Add this package to your WordPress plugin.

   composer require wordpress/wp-ai-client

2. Initialize the package by hooking up the WordPress\AI_Client\AI_Client::init() method to the WordPress init action:

   add_action( 'init', array( \WordPress\AI_Client\AI_Client::class, 'init' ) );

3. With your plugin active, visit Settings > AI Credentials in WP Admin to configure AI provider credentials.
4. Get started prompting various AI models by using the WordPress\AI_Client\AI_Client::prompt( ) method.

Code examples

Text generation using a specific model

use WordPress\AI_Client\AI_Client;

$text = AI_Client::prompt( 'Write a 2-verse poem about PHP.' )
	->using_model( Google::model( 'gemini-2.5-flash' ) )
	->generate_text();

Text generation using any compatible model from a specific provider

use WordPress\AI_Client\AI_Client;

$text = AI_Client::prompt( 'Write a 2-verse poem about PHP.' )
	->using_provider( 'openai' )
	->generate_text();

Text generation using any compatible model

use WordPress\AI_Client\AI_Client;

$text = AI_Client::prompt( 'Write a 2-verse poem about PHP.' )
	->generate_text();

Text generation with additional parameters

use WordPress\AI_Client\AI_Client;

$text = AI_Client::prompt( 'Write a 2-verse poem about PHP.' )
	->using_system_instruction( 'You are a famous poet from the 17th century.' )
	->using_temperature( 0.8 )
	->generate_text();

Text generation with multiple candidates using any compatible model

use WordPress\AI_Client\AI_Client;

$texts = AI_Client::prompt( 'Write a 2-verse poem about PHP.' )
	->generate_texts( 4 );

Image generation using any compatible model

use WordPress\AI_Client\AI_Client;

$imageFile = AI_Client::prompt( 'Generate an illustration of the PHP elephant in the Caribbean sea.' )
	->generate_image();

See the Prompt_Builder class and its public methods for all the ways you can configure the prompt.
