How It Works

The pipeline

  1. Something triggers generation — a mass action on the reviews grid, or the CLI command. See Generating Summaries.
  2. Reviews are collected. For each product and store view, the module loads every approved review and joins the review text into one block.
  3. A prompt is built asking for a single paragraph under 120 words, positives first, in the current locale's language. See What Is Sent to the Model.
  4. The provider is called — through Symfony AI for the hosted providers, or with a direct HTTP request for Ollama.
  5. The answer is saved in wk_ai_review_summary_list, replacing any earlier summary for that product and store view.
  6. The storefront renders it at the top of the product's Reviews tab.

When nothing happens

Generation is skipped for a product and store view that has no approved reviews. Any older summary stays in the database but is hidden on the storefront, because the page only shows a summary while the product has at least one approved review.
