Features
The default discourse_read_topic_posts selects exact IDs, earliest/latest posts, an around-post window, or username-filtered posts. Latest/earliest selections use at most two upstream requests and…
Topic and post reads preserve Discourse Solved fields when the plugin supplies them. An accepted answer is a resolution proxy, not proof that the original poster is satisfied.
The opt-in activity domain contains discourse_get_user_summary for profile-visible aggregates, discourse_list_user_actions for a paginated named event timeline, and discourse_list_directory_items for…
The opt-in administration domain makes categories and admin-visible site settings model-callable and provides confirmed activation/approval state changes. User creation requires a global admin API…
Topic/post author_username requires a global API key, and creation responses report both requested and actual attribution so ignored impersonation cannot be mistaken for success.
The opt-in analytics domain discovers the staff-visible report catalog before executing a report and exposes the Solved support dashboard. Dashboard “unanswered” means unsolved with no qualifying…
The opt-in ai_insights domain requires Discourse AI. Cached summaries report staleness, semantic search remains Guardian-filtered, and sentiment values are upstream model classifications rather than…
