Optionally. CITE does not require AI. If you connect a verified provider (ChatGPT or Gemini—using your account/API arrangement), you can use assisted actions such as summarize, rewrite, or extract key points on text you choose to send. That transmission goes to the provider you selected under that provider’s terms; it does not go to an in8development-hosted model. Do not connect AI, or send source material, unless that provider meets your security obligations. See Security for the shared-responsibility summary.
