Instead of clicking through hundreds of configuration screens, simply type natural language requests (e.g., “I want to set shipping rates” or “modify role for user id 5”) and get instantly navigated to the exact settings screen.

- Semantic Topic Goal Boost Matrix: Added +500 points Intent Boost for primary subjects (comments, categories, taxonomies, shipping, users, themes, menus) to guarantee comments and settings screens take top priorities.

- Quoted Priority Parameter Extraction & Preposition Noise Filtering: Extracts explicit quotes first and filters sentence prepositions (that, starts with, named) from parameter extraction.
- Zero-Network Dependency Inline SVG Vectors: Replaced Unicode emojis with local inline vector graphics (.dacp-icon) to prevent broken icons on offline/firewalled sites.
