AI chatbot for Comet Cache: explain expiry and exclusions
SleekAI reads Comet Cache's options, exclusion patterns, and cache directory state from WordPress, so editors stop guessing why a page is stale or which paths skip the cache. Bring your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or OpenRouter key.

A chatbot that knows your Comet Cache setup
Comet Cache stores its configuration in WordPress options prefixed comet_cache_, covering cache expiry time, exclusion URI patterns, the client-side flag, and the GET request handling rule. Cached HTML lives under /wp-content/cache/comet-cache/, and clear events get recorded in the option set whenever an admin purges or a post is updated. SleekAI can read those values as data sources, so the bot's system message exposes the active expiry, the excluded URIs, and the last purge time.
That turns Comet Cache's options screen into a conversation. An editor asks why a freshly updated landing page still shows yesterday's headline, the bot reads the auto-clear rules and confirms whether the update triggered a purge or only the homepage cleared. A developer asks which URIs are excluded from caching, the bot reads the comet_cache_exclude_uris entry and returns the actual patterns. None leaks to visitors because display conditions scope the bot to administrators inside wp-admin.
Multibot keeps a public-facing helper separate from the editorial cache bot, each with its own system message. Conversation logging captures every question with model, tokens, and origin page, so the team can review which cache questions repeat and adjust exclusions or auto-clear rules before another support ticket lands.
Workflow
How SleekAI plugs into Comet Cache
Map the Comet Cache options
comet_cache_cache_max_age, comet_cache_exclude_uris, GET handling, and auto-clear flags into named variables for the bot.
Scope to admins by role
wp-admin URL pattern so the cache bot only appears for administrators. A separate public chatbot under multibot can run on the front-end.

Comparison
Generic chatbot vs SleekAI for Comet Cache
Generic chatbot
- Doesn't know which Comet Cache expiry is configured on this site
- Can't see the exclude-URIs list or the auto-clear behaviour here
- Treats cache questions as generic WordPress performance advice
- No view of the cache directory state or last purge timestamp
- Can't be scoped to admins via display conditions and user roles
SleekAI chatbot
-
Reads the
comet_cache_*options and exclusion patterns - Surfaces cache expiry, GET handling, and client-side flag values
- Knows the auto-clear rules for posts, terms, and the home page
- Display conditions scope the bot to administrators in wp-admin
- Logs each cache question with model, tokens, and origin URL
Features
What SleekAI gives you for Comet Cache
Cache expiry transparency
The system message includes the configured cache expiry and GET handling flag, so admins ask how long a page is cached and get the real value from comet_cache_cache_max_age instead of a guess.
Exclusion list clarity
Ask which URIs bypass Comet Cache, and the bot reads comet_cache_exclude_uris plus user-agent and HTTP referrer rules. It returns the actual list, not a generic example from the plugin's documentation page.
Clear-event confidence
See which actions auto-purge the cache: post update, comment, plugin event, manual clear. The bot reads the auto-clear settings, so editors stop wondering whether their save took effect on the live HTML.
Use cases
Where teams use SleekAI for Comet Cache
Publish debugging help
An editor publishes a correction and the live page still shows the old text. The bot checks auto-clear rules and explains which URLs were purged versus which still serve from the cache directory.
Performance audits
An ops lead asks the bot to summarise expiry, exclusions, GET handling, and client-side flags. The chat becomes a quarterly cache config audit that catches drift before pages slow.
Campaign URL checks
Before a campaign with UTM parameters, marketing asks which query strings bypass the cache. The bot confirms GET handling and returns the exclusion list so tracking does not break static delivery.
The bigger picture
Why a plain-English layer over Comet Cache helps
Comet Cache is a long-running static page cache for WordPress: it writes HTML to disk, serves the static file on subsequent requests, and clears entries on the events you configure. That simplicity is the point. The friction is the small set of questions that come up around publishing, campaigns, and audits.
Did this purge correctly. How long until the next refresh. Which URIs bypass the cache.
Is GET request handling on for tracking parameters. Each one is a quick read of the comet_cache_* options, but quick is still slower than asking. SleekAI exposes those options as named variables, scoped to administrators via display conditions, with logs recording every conversation.
Editors stop second-guessing their saves, campaigns ship with confidence that tracking URLs hit the static file, and audits compress into a single chat rather than scrolling through option screens. Comet Cache still owns the cache layer; SleekAI is the read layer that turns the existing configuration into answers the team can ask for as soon as the question crosses their mind, without leaving WordPress.
Questions
Common questions about SleekAI for Comet Cache
Yes. Comet Cache stores its configuration in WordPress options prefixed comet_cache_, including expiry, exclusion URIs, GET handling, and auto-clear flags. SleekAI can be configured to read those options as data sources and expose them as variables, so the model answers with the actual configuration rather than a generic default.
By default, no. SleekAI is read-only against Comet Cache. The bot describes the configuration and clear rules; it does not call the wipe function. If you want a chatbot-triggered purge, you can wire comet_cache::clear() into a SleekAI tool with a capability check, but most teams keep the action inside the toolbar button.
Yes. Pro adds entries like static CDN URL rewrites, OPcache integration, and per-role caching, all stored alongside the free options. SleekAI can read those Pro entries too, so a bot on a Pro site can explain CDN URL handling and tell whether OPcache integration is active without separate setup per toggle.
 
Not unless you configure it that way. Display conditions can lock the Comet Cache bot to administrators inside wp-admin and exclude it from the front-end. A separate public chatbot under multibot can run on the front-end with no cache-config exposure and no shared system message.
Yes. It walks through the exclusion URIs, the user-agent rules, the GET handling flag, and the cookies that might trigger a cache bypass. If a logged-in cookie or an excluded URI is the cause, the bot points to the specific entry. The fix still lives in the settings tab.
 No. Comet Cache writes static HTML files to disk; object cache plugins like Redis or Memcached cache database queries one layer deeper. SleekAI can read Comet's options without conflict and can also report whether an object cache is detected if you wire it as a separate variable.
 No. The SleekAI widget loads asynchronously after the page renders, and the Comet Cache data the bot reads is a single option fetch on the server at conversation time. Page load is unaffected, and static HTML delivery from Comet Cache continues at the same speed as before.
 
Yes. Each WordPress install has its own comet_cache_* options and its own SleekAI configuration. Staging environments often run with shorter expiry or caching disabled; the staging bot describes that without leaking production exclusions or lifetime. Logs stay per environment so the data never blends.
