T-Builder 0.9.24
The plugin on the site and the agent in your account move together; every release has a number, the site updates itself from the account, and the number in the WordPress admin header says which one runs.

Everything on this page is in the app right now. Create your free account, open a project and watch a template become native Elementor. The plugin waits under Products and sites; it downloads as soon as your account holds credit, from a first top-up of $10, and from then on it keeps every site that carries your key up to date by itself.

T-Builder 0.9.24
7 changes- Plugins of the site's own: the agent writes a small plugin when a job needs code the installed plugins do not offer (a shortcode, a custom post type with its archive and single, an integration, a widget, an admin page). It lives in wp-content/plugins/tb-, every PHP file is parsed before it is written, eval and exec are refused, activation runs under a guard, and a critical error on the site right after turns it off again with the message in the answer. Only plugins T-Builder wrote can be read back, replaced or removed; the developer's own plugins are never touched.
- Slider widget: a template's slider (Swiper, Slick, Owl, Splide, a hand-made one) converts to T-Builder's Slider, one slide per repeater item with picture, small line, heading, text and two buttons, with autoplay, fade or slide, arrows, dots, swipe and keyboard; the developer edits the slides in Elementor. Style controls for height, alignment, scrim, type, buttons, arrows and dots. No library; a visitor who asked for less motion sees the slides still, with the arrows.
- Running animations stay: a floating icon, a pulsing badge, a spinning mark no longer turn the whole section into one HTML block. The element becomes its native Elementor widget and carries its animation in the Motion panel's new "Running animation" (the CSS shorthand and its keyframes, editable), printed scoped to that element and switched off for visitors who prefer reduced motion.
- New things look like the site: a new section, page, post type, widget, form or block is built in the site's design (its palette, fonts, buttons and cards), not the WordPress default look; the agent reads the site's styles and the page first, asks one short round of questions when the look, the fields or the place on the site are open, and takes the site's own defaults when told to just do it. When the request needs a design of its own, the agent asks T-Design for a page in the site's look and converts it.
- Forms follow the site: the T-Builder form takes the Elementor kit's primary colour by itself, and the agent sets the rest of its style to the section it sits in; a plugin form gets the site's colours in the plugin's settings or a few scoped rules.
- Items grid widget: three or more like cards side by side in a template (features, services, team members, testimonials, steps) convert to one Items grid, a repeater with picture or mark, small line, heading, text, a line under it and a link per item, with the template's columns, gap, card paint, radius, shadow, type and link style. The client adds a fourth card where the template had three, in the widget, instead of copying containers. Style controls for the grid, the card, the picture and icon, the type and the link.
- Theme packages carry the Slider and the Items grid with their Marquee band, so a page keeps them when the theme stands alone.

Code of the site's own, and a slider that turns
T-Builder 0.9.24 writes small plugins for a site when a job needs code, converts a template's slider and its repeated cards into editable Slider and Items grid widgets, keeps running animations on native widgets, and builds new things in the site's own design.
