## Description

AI publishing tools and content automations are great at writing and publishing 
posts on a schedule, but they almost always drop every post into one default category
and leave the SEO title, meta description, and tags blank. This plugin fills all
of those gaps automatically, the instant a post is published – so your blog stays
organized and SEO-complete without manual cleanup.

It is tool-neutral. It hooks into the WordPress publish event itself, so it works
with whatever creates the post:

 * AI blog autopilots such as Soro, Arvow, ZimmWriter, Koala, and SEOWriting.
 * Content and social automation tools such as Blotato.
 * RSS importers and no-code automations (Zapier, Make, n8n).
 * Scheduled posts, and posts you write by hand in the editor.

What it does, on publish:

 * Auto-categorize – any post that lands in your chosen inbox category (Uncategorized
   by default) is re-filed into the best-matching existing category, based on your
   category names and slugs, with optional keyword rules for precise control.
 * SEO title tag – when a post has no SEO title, one is generated from the post 
   title, with your site name appended when it fits. Works with SEOPress, Yoast 
   SEO, or Rank Math.
 * Meta description – when a post has no SEO description, a concise one is generated
   from the article opening. Works with SEOPress, Yoast SEO, Rank Math, or the native
   WordPress excerpt.
 * Tags – when a post has no tags, relevant ones are added, drawn from the post 
   title, your existing tag vocabulary, and any keyword rules you define. You choose
   how many.

Safe by design: it only ever acts on posts in the inbox category, and for titles,
descriptions, and tags it only fills fields that are empty. Anything you set by 
hand is never changed. An optional only-this-author setting can scope it to the 
exact user your tool publishes as. No external calls, no tracking; deactivate and
it stops, uninstall and it cleans up after itself.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin zip via Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, or extract it into
    wp-content/plugins/.
 2. Activate it through the Plugins screen.
 3. Go to Settings > Auto Cat, SEO & Tags.
 4. Set the inbox category to the one your publishing tool uses (usually Uncategorized)
    and save.

New posts will self-file, self-title, self-describe, and self-tag from then on.

## FAQ

### Which publishing tools does it work with?

Any of them. It does not depend on a specific service – it reacts to the WordPress
publish event. That includes AI blog autopilots (Soro, Arvow, ZimmWriter, Koala,
SEOWriting and similar), automation tools (Blotato, Zapier, Make, n8n), RSS importers,
scheduled posts, and posts written by hand.

### Will it change posts I categorized or tagged myself?

No. It only acts on posts whose category is the inbox category, and it only fills
title, description, and tag fields that are empty. Anything you set by hand is left
untouched.

### Which SEO plugins are supported?

SEOPress, Yoast SEO, and Rank Math are detected automatically for the SEO title 
and meta description. If none is active, the description falls back to the native
post excerpt.

### How are tags chosen?

From three sources combined: tags you already use that appear in the post, keywords
from your optional keyword rules, and meaningful phrases from the post title. You
set the maximum number of tags (default five). Posts that already have tags are 
skipped.

### Does it send my data anywhere?

No. Everything runs locally on your site. No external calls, no tracking.
