Visit https://ptero.pro. 2. Choose a display name, which is saved locally on your device. 3. Select an AI model from the dropdown. 4. Type your prompt and start chatting. No account or payment is required. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the Ptero repo (Ptero-ai/Ptero) as the reference, open https://ptero.pro, choose the model named from the dropdown, and send the prompt . Expected output: a model reply shown in the chat window. Verify that the selected model name appears in the interface before you accept the reply. ``` ### Caveat The README says conversations are stored in the browser and not on Ptero servers, so clearing browser data or switching devices will remove the history.

Open https://ptero.pro and select a model from the dropdown. 2. Enter your prompt and save the reply you get. 3. Use One-Click Model Switching to change to another model in the list. 4. Send the same prompt again and compare the replies. 5. Keep the reply that best meets your needs. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the Ptero repo (Ptero-ai/Ptero), open https://ptero.pro and send the identical prompt to the models and , switching with the model dropdown. Expected output: two replies, each labeled by the model used.

Download the plugin from the GitHub repository linked in the README, which is https://github.com/aminkheddache-dotcom/Pterocos. 2. Upload the plugin to your WordPress site and activate it. 3. Create or open a page or post on the site. 4. Insert the shortcode `[mlp_ai_chat]` into the content. 5. Publish the page and open it in a browser to confirm the chat loads. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the Ptero repo (Ptero-ai/Ptero) as the reference, install the Ptero WordPress plugin on and add the shortcode [mlp_ai_chat] to the page . Expected output: the published page displays the full chat interface.

Open the repository at https://github.com/Ptero-ai/Ptero and read the LICENSE file, which is GPL v2 or later. 2. Clone the repository with your own Git client and review the PHP WordPress integration and the JavaScript frontend. 3. Install the code into a local WordPress test site, since the README describes a WordPress plugin, and activate it. (inferred, check the README) 4. Check the issues list for items labeled `good-first-issue`. 5. Open a pull request that follows the project's code style, as the README asks. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the Ptero repo (Ptero-ai/Ptero), clone the code, locate the plugin files that handle the chat interface, and summarize in a short report. Expected output: a list of files with one sentence on each. Verify that the file paths you cite exist in the cloned repository. ``` ### Caveat The README does not document a local build or test setup, so the local install step is an inference and may need adjustment.
