Shakvaro Content Engine

Shakvaro Content Engine (SCE) is a workflow engine for SEO-driven content production. It combines:

• Guided 8-step workflow — define a project, pick keywords + locations, choose a template, configure shortcodes, write AI prompts, set SEO rules, configure publishing, launch.
• Bring-your-own LLM — works with any OpenAI-compatible chat endpoint. Switch between OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, Groq, OpenRouter, or a self-hosted gateway.
• Bulk meta description regeneration — pick a category or filter, regenerate hundreds of Yoast / RankMath meta descriptions in a single batch.
• 404 tracker — log 404s and queue the worthwhile ones into the content pipeline.
• Template system — Block Editor / Gutenberg templates with dynamic shortcodes that map to AI-generated sections.
• Internal linking engine — automatic anchor placement with category, density, and freshness controls.
• JSON-LD schema injection — Article, FAQ, Breadcrumb schema generated alongside each post.
• Yoast + RankMath integration — auto-fills focus keyword + meta description; respects sitemap rules.
• Queue + cron — long-running generation handled in background with retry, rate-limit, and progress UI.
• Activity log — every API call, validation pass, and publish event recorded for audit and debugging.

SCE is built for agencies, SEO teams, and content operations that need to produce dozens-to-hundreds of optimized posts on a recurring schedule without burning hours on each one.

External services

This plugin connects to several external services so that AI-generated content, URL validation, and article enrichment can happen. Every service is opt-in via configuration. No data is sent until you configure a provider and trigger a generation.

OpenAI (api.openai.com) — only used when you configure an OpenAI API key in Settings → AI Provider. It sends the prompt you author (typically including target keyword and template instructions), generation parameters, and your API key in the Authorization header. It is sent on: every queued post generation, every Test AI Prompt click, and every meta-description regen.

Google Gemini (generativelanguage.googleapis.com) — only used when you configure a Gemini API key in Settings → AI Provider. It sends the prompt, generation parameters, and your API key in the request URL. Same trigger points as OpenAI.

Wikipedia REST (en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1) — used by the optional [olink: PHRASE] shortcode inside generated content to resolve a phrase to its Wikipedia article URL. It sends the literal phrase (URL-encoded) as part of the request path. Up to 3 lookups per article. Responses are cached for 30 days. Triggered only when generated content contains an [olink: ...] shortcode.
