Glossary
Terms used throughout the Aimogen Pro documentation, defined as they are used in this plugin.
Definitions as they apply in Aimogen Pro. Some of these terms mean subtly different things elsewhere.
A#
Agent — an AI given a task rather than a prompt, which decides its own steps and calls tools to carry them out. See AI Agents.
AiomaticAPI — a managed OpenAI-compatible gateway operated by the plugin vendor. See AiomaticAPI.
Assistant — an OpenAI construct with its own instructions, model, files and functions. Selecting one disables model selection and chatbot personas. See AI Assistants.
B#
Batch API — OpenAI asynchronous bulk endpoint, roughly half price with results within 24 hours. See AI Batch Requests.
Bot Context — the chatbot system prompt. The single most important chatbot setting. See Bot configuration.
C#
Capability list — an internal list of which models support vision, tool calling, streaming and so on. Selectors only offer models that qualify. See Selecting models.
Circuit breaker — after repeated failures, an entire provider is put on cooldown rather than just one model. See Reliability Mode.
Credits — the unit of a usage limit, counted as queries, tokens or price. See Usage limits.
Critical — a flag on an OmniBlock. A critical block failing stops the workflow; a non-critical one is skipped. See Building a workflow.
E#
Embedding — a numeric vector representing a piece of text, used to find semantically similar content. See Embeddings, RAG and knowledge.
Extension — two meanings. A chatbot extension is a tool the AI may call. An official extension is a companion plugin unlocking a feature. See Chatbot Extensions and Official extensions.
G#
God Mode — the extension letting the AI call arbitrary WordPress functions. Labelled BETA, and the highest-risk feature in the plugin. See Agent security.
N#
Namespace — a partition of the embeddings index, so different features search different content. See Adding content to the index.
O#
OmniBlock — one step in an Aimogen Pro workflow. 57 types exist. See OmniBlocks.
Omni Page — a complete generated page or funnel, in Gutenberg or Elementor. See AI Omni Pages.
P#
Persona — a saved chatbot identity with its own name, context, avatar and model. See Chatbot personas.
Placeholder — a %%name%% token replaced with contextual data before a prompt is sent. See
Placeholder reference.
Prompt injection — content the AI reads containing instructions aimed at the model. The main security concern when an AI both reads outside content and has tools that act. See Agent security.
R#
RAG — retrieval-augmented generation: retrieving relevant indexed content and putting it into the prompt. See Embeddings, RAG and knowledge.
Reliability Mode — ordered, capability-aware model fallbacks with cooldowns and a provider circuit breaker. Off by default. See Reliability Mode.
Responses API — a newer provider endpoint offered by several vendors. Several implementations are in beta and lack streaming and tool calls. See AI provider configuration.
Rule — a saved, schedulable configuration in a bulk creator. Stored in the aiomatic_*_list options.
See Bulk creator: keywords and titles.
Run lock — the aiomatic_running_list option preventing concurrent runs of the same rule. A stale
entry silently stops a rule forever. See Scheduling.
S#
Snippet — a stored piece of PHP, JavaScript, CSS or HTML executed under conditions, with validation and fatal-error protection. See AI Snippets Engine.
Spintax — {a|b|c} syntax selecting one option at random. See
Spintax and dynamic text.
T#
Token — the unit providers bill in. Roughly 0.75 words of English per token. See Tokens, context and output length.
Tool calling — the mechanism by which a model requests that a function be executed rather than answering directly. See Chatbot Extensions.
Top-K — how many retrieved chunks are injected into a prompt. See Retrieval.
V#
Vector store — the database holding embeddings and answering similarity queries. Four are supported. See Vector stores.
W#
Workspace — the per-user setting deciding which plugin menus are visible. Convenience, not security. See Workspace.
