  • Brief description:
    • The AI Schema.org JSON-LD module provides a straightforward way to send a prompt — including a webpage's content and data, along with instructions and requirements — to an AI provider and receive a response containing valid Schema.org JSON-LD for saving and embedding in a webpage. It's a "glue module" that combines AI Automators, Field Widget Actions, and JSON Field to create an AI-powered Schema.org JSON-LD field for content entities.

  • Module features and usage
    • Adds a native JSON "Schema.org JSON-LD" field to content entities (nodes, media, taxonomy terms)
    • Field is populated via an AI automator triggered by a Field Widget Action, keeping a human in the review loop before saving
    • Stores Schema.org JSON-LD as native JSON data, creating a fully queryable knowledge graph for the site
    • Works with complex nested content structures (paragraphs, components) by having AI parse and generate the structured data
    • Includes an optional sub-module for logging prompts and AI responses for human and AI review and iterative improvement
    • Configurable per entity type/bundle via UI, Drush, or Drupal recipe
    • Philosophy: "Use AI to build a tool that helps AI understand your website while always keeping a human in the loop"
    • Built using AI coding agents (Claude and Codex), with community contributions encouraged — especially around crafting and sharing optimal prompts
