AI Chat 

The AI Chat feature provides a conversational AI assistant that supports content creation, editing, and ideation directly inside CKEditor. It enables dynamic, multi-turn interactions through a chat interface, offering a collaborative and context-aware writing experience beyond single-prompt generation.

Configuration 

Adjust the AI configuration as needed. To enable the Chat feature, load the AIChat plugin in your CKEditor configuration. When enabled, a Chat button appears in the AI interface together with access to chat history.

1. Working with the Document 

CKEditor AI Chat operates in the context of the active document. Reference specific paragraphs, request full-document proofreading, or ask questions about the currently visible content. Optional Web search and Reasoning features extend the assistant with real-time information and advanced logical processing.

2. Making Changes to Content 

Request summarization, rewriting, or structural improvements. Instead of dumping plain text, AI Chat returns proposed edits that you can review, accept, reject, or convert into Track Changes suggestions—eliminating copy/paste workflows.

3. Brainstorming and Content Creation 

Start from a blank page, generate ideas, build outlines, and refine drafts entirely through conversation. The AI can rewrite, proofread, or polish text whenever needed.

4. Integration 

Enable the Chat feature by loading the AIChat plugin. Once active, the Chat button appears in the AI panel along with chat history controls.

5. Available Models 

Users pick from available AI models via the selector at the bottom of the chat panel. The chosen model remains active for the conversation; start a new chat (+ New chat) to switch models.

7. Reasoning 

Reasoning enhances problem solving, contextual analysis, and structured outputs. Turn it on with Enable reasoning when the model supports it.

8. Adding Context to Conversations 

Use Add context to attach URLs, files, or documents. The AI analyzes the supplied material to provide summaries, explanations, or answers. Integrations with centralized resource libraries are supported.

9. Working with AI-Generated Changes 

AI responses include proposed edits. Hovering a suggestion highlights the corresponding document section for context before applying it.

10. Showing Details 

Toggle Show details to switch between: - Detailed view – shows markup for additions, deletions, and formatting. - Simplified view – clean preview of the updated text.

11. Previewing Changes 

Show in the text opens a preview window with navigation, apply/reject controls, and Track Changes conversion options. The preview stays synced with the document.

12. Applying Changes 

  • Apply inserts the selected suggestion.
  • Apply all accepts every AI-generated change at once.

13. Inserting Track Changes Suggestions 

With Track Changes enabled: - Insert suggestion applies individual edits as suggestions. - Suggest (under Apply all) converts all edits into Track Changes entries.

14. Rejecting Suggestions 

Use Delete (Reject) to dismiss unwanted proposals.

15. Chat History 

All conversations appear in the Chat history panel. Users can reopen sessions, rename conversations, delete entries, and filter by date or search term.
