Add-Ons [XTR] AI Assistant 1.0.8

[Offical]

A new update is available for [XTR] AI Assistant by Offical.

[XTR] AI Assistant 1.0.8​

Update highlights​

This update focuses on fixing critical issues reported by users, particularly around automatic translation bot scenarios and user group access.

Translation Bot Support
This version introduces the Skip Response feature, specifically designed for translation bots and conditional responders. When you instruct your AI to respond with [SKIP] for content that shouldn't be translated (e.g., already-English posts), the bot will silently skip without posting a reply.

Critical Bug Fixes
User Group Selection: The "All" option now properly grants access to all users using XenForo 's native $user->isMemberOf() method.
Empty Triggers: You can now save a bot with no Mention/Quote triggers enabled if you only want auto-reply functionality.
Language Detection: Bot now correctly responds in the language of the message it's replying to, not the conversation history's dominant language.
Self-Reply Prevention: Bots no longer create consecutive replies in scheduled/auto-reply scenarios.

Translation Bot Setup Guide
For automatic translation bots:

1. Thread context limit: Set to 0
2. Thread Prompt:

Dear Guests, welcome! Please, Log in or Register to view hide content!

3. Triggers: Uncheck both Mention and Quote
4. Auto-reply: Enable and select target forums
5. User groups: Select "All"

Upgrade Instructions
After upgrading, please reconfigure your bots - especially if you were using workarounds for the "All" user group issue.

Thank you to everyone who reported issues!

Complete Change Log​

New Features

• Skip Response Feature - AI can now skip responding when conditions aren't met. When AI responds with [SKIP], [NO RESPONSE], [NO TRANSLATION NEEDED], [SILENT], or similar patterns, the bot will silently skip that post. Perfect for translation bots and conditional responders.
• Thread Context Limit Explanation - Added a clear explanation for the "Thread context limit" setting, clarifying that it controls previous messages and the trigger post is always included separately.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed "All" User Group Selection - Completely rewrote the user group access check using XenForo's native pattern (AbstractPrefix). Selecting "All" now works correctly without needing to manually select each group.
• Fixed Empty Trigger Checkboxes - You can now uncheck both "Mention" and "Quote" triggers if you only want auto-reply to work. Previously, the form would reset to default triggers when saved.
• Fixed Language Detection - Bot now responds in the same language as the trigger post (last message), even if previous context messages were in a different language. Added explicit rule to system prompts.
• Fixed Bot Self-Reply in Scheduled Content - Added self-reply prevention to QueueProcessor for scheduled replies. Bot no longer replies to its own previous messages.
• Fixed Bot-to-Bot Loop Prevention - Extended bot loop prevention to scheduled content, respecting the "Prevent bot-to-bot responses" option.

Improvements

• XenForo Standard Compliance - User group access check now uses XenForo 's native $user->isMemberOf() method for better compatibility.
• Better Default Values - Default user groups setting is now [-1] (All) matching XenForo's standard pattern.
• Enhanced Thread Prompt Documentation - Thread prompt explanation now includes information about the skip pattern feature.
