Page Builder Plugin v0.4.0

Major focus on writing quality - AI fingerprints removed and prompts tuned against side-by-side tests on the worker - plus a conversational component flow, in-editor image controls, and Site Profile integration.

AI Writing Quality

• Fingerprint cleanup - generations no longer lean on the usual AI tells (em-dash chains, hedging openers, "in today's fast-paced world"-style filler, mirrored sentence structure). Prompt rules and post-processing strip them on the worker before content reaches the editor.
• Test-driven prompt iteration - wording changes are now validated with paired comparisons on the worker (same brief, side-by-side outputs, scored against fingerprint and readability checks) instead of one-shot tweaks.
• Worker is the single source of truth - prompt assembly moved fully to the worker, so plugin updates are no longer required to ship writing-quality improvements. The plugin sends the brief and renders the result.
• Audience-aware reading grade - the Audience selector now controls vocabulary and sentence length consistently across all modes (Create, Rephrase, Modernize, Merge, Competitive).

AI Component Chat

• Conversational component builder - generate and refine components in a chat sidebar with persistent history per page. Each turn is credit-priced based on what was actually generated.
• Image support in chat - drop or paste images into the conversation as references for the AI.

AI Component Generator v2

• Brand-aware generation - components are produced against your current Brand Settings (colors, typography, spacing scale) so output drops in without re-styling.
• Per-type credit costs - explicit, predictable pricing per component category (hero, features, testimonials, pricing, etc.).

Editor Improvements

• Image edit toolbar - select an image inside the editor to align, resize, swap, or remove it without leaving the page. Replaces the old "edit in media library" round-trip.
• Page metabox - toggle NitroShock Page Builder on or off per post/page directly from the standard WordPress sidebar.

Site Profile Integration

• Identity & geo in every prompt - company name, website purpose, and country / state / city from the shared Site Profile are injected into every AI generation, so output sounds like your business and targets your market.
• Country → state → city cascade - enterprise-data-backed location picker with city autocomplete; the most specific code wins for rank tracker, Top-10 analysis, and keyword research.

Infrastructure

• Self-hosted updater - the plugin now checks nitroshock.ai for updates and surfaces them in the standard WordPress update flow, no "upload a zip" step required.
