### 1. Moodle 4.5+ AI Subsystem Architecture (`core_ai`) 🤖

```
[ Moodle LMS Core / Courses / Forums ] ➔ [ AI Actions Interface (core_ai\action) ]
                                                        ⬇
                                        [ AI Manager Gateway (core_ai\manager) ]
                                                        ⬇
                                [ Pluggable AI Providers (aiprovider/openai, aiprovider/anthropic, aiprovider/ollama) ]
```

---

### 2. Implementing Custom AI Actions in Plugins

```php
$action = new \core_ai\aiactions\generate_summary(
    contextid: $context->id,
    userid: $USER->id,
    prompttext: $forumDiscussionText
);

$manager = new \core_ai\manager();
$response = $manager->process_action($action);

if ($response->get_status() === \core_ai\aiactions\responses\response_base::STATUS_SUCCESS) {
    echo $response->get_response_data()['generatedcontent'];
}
```

### 3. Interview Ke 3 Sawal Is Topic Se

1. **`core_ai` architecture multi-provider fallback kaise handle karti hai?** -> Admin panel se primary provider (OpenAI) aur secondary provider (Local Ollama / Azure) configure karke automatic failover support karna.
2. **AI Rate Limiting & User Quotas Moodle me kaise enforce hoti hain?** -> Policy manager har user role (Student vs Teacher) ke daily token consumption budget track karta hai.
3. **Plagiarism & AI Generated Content Detection Moodle Subsystem me kaise integrate hoti hai?** -> Assessment submission event par AI classifier provider invoke karke originality probability score gradebook me attach karna.
