Smart Comment Transformer

Key Features

• AI-Powered Spam Detection — Compares comment content against the post topic to determine relevance. Comments unrelated to the post are classified as spam.
• Smart Rewriting — Transforms irrelevant comments into natural, on-topic discussions while preserving the original commenter’s identity (name, email, URL, date).
• Auto-Reply Generation — Creates appropriate author responses to foster engagement and build social proof.
• Dual Processing Modes — Manual Preview mode for admin control, or Full Auto mode for hands-off operation.
• Configurable WP-Cron — Schedule processing: hourly, twice daily, daily, weekly, or manual only.
• Three AI Providers — Google Gemini (free tier), OpenAI GPT-4o mini, or Antigravity CLI (free, no API key required).
• REST API — Full REST API for external integrations and CLI workflows.
• Activity Log — Track all transformations with before/after history and audit trail.
• Reversible — Original comment content is backed up in comment meta and can be restored at any time.
• Encrypted API Keys — API keys are encrypted with AES-256-CBC before storage in the database.

How It Works

1. Pending comments are fetched by WP-Cron or manual trigger.
2. AI analyzes each comment against the post content to determine if it’s relevant or spam.
3. Relevant comments are auto-approved as-is.
4. Spam comments are rewritten to be on-topic with a generated admin reply.
5. All transformations are logged with original content preserved.

REST API Endpoints

The plugin exposes a clean REST API for the Antigravity CLI mode and external integrations:

• GET /wp-json/sct/v1/pending — List pending comments with full post context
• POST /wp-json/sct/v1/transform — Transform a single comment
• POST /wp-json/sct/v1/transform-batch — Batch transform multiple comments
• GET /wp-json/sct/v1/stats — Processing statistics and cron status

Antigravity CLI Mode

A unique feature: use the Antigravity code editor as the AI engine. No external API key needed — the editor analyzes comments locally and pushes results via REST API. Includes a ready-to-use Python workflow script.
