Description

Blocksmith Prompts adds an AI Content Generator panel to the Gutenberg block editor sidebar. Write a prompt, optionally use your existing post as context, review the generated content, and insert it directly into the editor as properly structured native blocks — headings, lists, paragraphs, and more.

How it works:

  1. Open any post or page in the block editor.
  2. Find the AI Content Generator panel in the Document sidebar.
  3. Click Generate from context to open the modal.
  4. Enter a prompt describing what you want written.
  5. Click Generate — the plugin sends your prompt (plus current post content as context) to the configured AI connector.
  6. Review and optionally edit the result in the modal.
  7. Click Insert into editor to add the content as native blocks at the current cursor position.

Key features:

  • Uses the WordPress Abilities API — no third-party SDK required.
  • Markdown output is automatically converted to proper Gutenberg blocks (headings, lists, bold, italic, and more).
  • Supports any REST-enabled post type.
  • Shows a notice if no AI connector is configured, with a direct link to manage connectors.
  • Regenerate as many times as needed before inserting.

Requirements:

This plugin requires:

  • WordPress 7.0+ (with core AI support enabled)
  • The official WordPress AI plugin installed and active
  • An AI connector configured under Settings Connectors
  1. Upload the blocksmith-prompts folder to /wp-content/plugins/.
  2. Activate Blocksmith Prompts from the Plugins screen.
  3. Ensure the AI plugin is installed and active.
  4. Configure an AI connector under Settings Connectors.
Does this plugin work without the WordPress AI plugin?

No. Blocksmith Prompts uses the WordPress Abilities API, which is provided by the WordPress AI feature plugin. Both must be active.

Which AI providers are supported?

Any provider supported by the WordPress AI plugin and its connector system — the list grows as the AI plugin adds new connectors.

Will the generated content overwrite my existing post?

No. Content is inserted at the current cursor position in the editor, leaving all existing blocks untouched.

Can I edit the generated content before inserting?

Yes. The modal shows an editable textarea with the generated output. Edit freely before clicking Insert into editor.
