refactor(admin): split 1089-line admin class into 7 focused files

Addresses excessive line count in Peptide_News_Admin (1089 lines)
by extracting responsibilities into single-purpose classes:

- class-pn-admin-assets.php (88 lines): CSS/JS enqueuing
- class-pn-admin-menu.php (98 lines): Menu & submenu registration
- class-pn-admin-field-renderers.php (325 lines): 25+ field renderers (static)
- class-pn-admin-settings.php (289 lines): Settings registration & sanitization
- class-pn-admin-log-viewer.php (155 lines): Plugin log viewer UI & AJAX
- class-pn-admin-settings-page.php (214 lines): Settings page + manual buttons
- class-pn-admin-dashboard-pages.php (109 lines): Dashboard/articles/cost pages
- class-peptide-news-admin.php (143 lines): Thin orchestrator (delegator)

All files under 300 lines. Original public interface preserved exactly
so no consumer code or tests break. Updated ARCHITECTURE.md.

+          4. Be concise and direct. No pleasantries. Call out concrete line-level issues when possible.

-# Changelog
-
-All notable changes to Peptide News Plugin are documented here.
-Format: [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/).
-Versioning: [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/).
-
-## [2.5.1] - 2026-06-17
-
-### Fixed
-- PHP 8.3 `TypeError` on Articles admin page: `number_format()` rejects the numeric string returned by `$wpdb->get_var()`. Cast `$total` to `(int)` at point of assignment in `admin/partials/articles-list.php` (#32).
-- PHP 8.3 `TypeError` on Analytics Dashboard page: `number_format()` rejects SUM aggregate strings returned by `$wpdb->get_results()`. Cast `$article->total_clicks` and `$article->total_unique` to `(int)` inline in `admin/partials/dashboard.php` (same-class fix, no PR number — follow-on to #32).
-
-## [2.5.0] — 2026-06-16
-
-### Changed
-- **CI standardization (estate wave 2):** Replace per-repo CI jobs in
-  `ci.yml` with a thin caller of `peptiderepo/peptide-e2e/.github/workflows/ci.yml@main`
-  (`tests: stubs`, `has_js: true`). Adds `workflow_call` trigger so `deploy.yml`
-  gate remains valid.
-- Extract `security-audit` job from `ci.yml` into standalone
-  `.github/workflows/security-audit.yml` (kept as-is, unique to this repo).
-- `deploy.yml`: elevate permissions to `contents: write` so the nested
-  phpcbf commit-back step in the reusable workflow receives the correct token scope.
-- `composer.json`: pin `test` script to `vendor/bin/phpunit --configuration phpunit.xml.dist`
-  for explicit path resolution in CI; pin `lint` / `lint:fix` to `vendor/bin/`.
-- `phpunit.xml.dist`: add XSD reference for PHPUnit 9.6; drop deprecated
-  `convertErrorsToExceptions`, `convertNoticesToExceptions`, `convertWarningsToExceptions`
-  attributes.
-
-### Notes
-- `rollback.yml` and `cto-review.yml` and `main-push-audit.yml` unchanged — unique / estate-separate.
-- No functional code changes in this commit.

-# Peptide News Aggregator v2.6.0 — Complete Implementation & Deployment Plan
-
-**Target Architecture:**
-- **Shared Hosting Server**: Prepaid WordPress hosting (MySQL Database `wp_peptide_news_articles`, public WordPress frontend, Admin UI).
-- **Hostinger KVM8 VPS (Coolify)**: Dedicated VPS running Coolify to execute the standalone worker (`tools/vps-worker/`) for heavy 3-step OpenRouter LLM processing, PubMed XML extraction, and Google News URL redirect unwrapping.
-
----
-
-## 1. Current Codebase Status (100% Implemented & Verified)
-All v2.6.0 features and adversarial security hardenings have been implemented in `c:\Users\terence\Projects\peptidenews`:
-- **89/89 PHPUnit tests passing** (`vendor/bin/phpunit`).
-- **REST API Worker Routes (`/wp-json/peptide-news/v1/worker/*`)**: Authenticated via `X-Peptide-News-Token` (with timing-safe comparison and automatic token decryption).
-- **Standalone Coolify Worker (`tools/vps-worker/`)**: Complete with `Dockerfile`, `docker-compose.yml`, and `worker.php` supporting both CLI arguments and Coolify environment variables (`WP_URL`, `VPS_TOKEN`, `OPENROUTER_KEY`, `OPENROUTER_MODEL`, `WORKER_ACTION`, `BATCH_SIZE`).
-- **3-Step AI Pipeline**:
-  - **Step 1 (Gatekeeper)**: Assigns scientific rigor score (1–10) and classifies study type. Rejects low-quality/promotional spam (`score < 3` or `is_spam = true`) by setting `'is_active' => 0`.
-  - **Step 2 (Extraction)**: Extracts target peptides, mechanism, experimental model, and keywords, saving checkpoint to `ai_metadata`.
-  - **Step 3 (Generation)**: Creates a 300–500 word structured Markdown summary (`## Executive Summary`, `## Scientific Context & Mechanism`, etc.).
-
----
-
-## 2. Instructions for the Agent: Step-by-Step Execution
-
-### Step 1: Package as an Installable WordPress Plugin ZIP
-Before deploying to WordPress, create a clean, installable ZIP archive (`peptidenews-v2.6.0.zip`) that can be uploaded directly via **WordPress Admin -> Plugins -> Add New -> Upload Plugin**:
-1. From the parent directory of `peptidenews`, generate a clean zip archive containing the `peptidenews/` root folder while excluding development, test, and git files:
-   ```bash
-   # Linux / macOS / Bash:
-   zip -r peptidenews-v2.6.0.zip peptidenews/ \
-       -x "peptidenews/.git/*" \
-       -x "peptidenews/tests/*" \
-       -x "peptidenews/phpunit.xml*" \
-       -x "peptidenews/.phpunit*" \
-       -x "peptidenews/scratch/*" \
-       -x "peptidenews/*.md"
-   ```
-   *(On Windows PowerShell, use `Compress-Archive -Path .\peptidenews -DestinationPath .\peptidenews-v2.6.0.zip` after excluding `tests` and `.git`).*
-2. **Verify ZIP Archive Structure**: Ensure `peptidenews/peptide-news-plugin.php` is located at the top level inside the zip archive so WordPress correctly recognizes it as a valid plugin.
-
-### Step 2: Deploy & Configure WordPress on Shared Hosting
-1. Upload and install `peptidenews-v2.6.0.zip` via WordPress Admin or extract it into `/wp-content/plugins/peptidenews/` on the shared WordPress server.
-2. In WordPress Admin -> **Settings -> Peptide News**:
-   - Under **NCBI API Key**, enter an NCBI API key (optional, increases PubMed rate limit to 10 req/sec).
-   - Under **VPS Worker Integration**, enter a strong secret token (e.g., `coolify_secret_token_2026`) and save.
-3. Verify the REST API endpoint responds correctly. **The token MUST be sent as a query parameter for GET requests** — the shared host's LiteSpeed caches REST responses per-URI and ignores `X-LiteSpeed-Cache-Control: no-cache`, so header-only auth on GET would let a cached authenticated response leak to unauthenticated requests:
-   ```bash
-   curl -i "https://your-wordpress-site.com/wp-json/peptide-news/v1/worker/pending?limit=5&token=coolify_secret_token_2026"
-   ```
-   POST routes (`/worker/update`, `/worker/ingest`) are never cached and accept the `X-Peptide-News-Token` header (or query `token`).
-
-### Step 3: Deploy Worker Application to Coolify (Hostinger KVM8 VPS)
-Use the Coolify UI or Coolify MCP to create and configure the standalone worker:
-1. **Create Application in Coolify**:
-   - Add a new **Application** and point it to the repository (or upload `tools/vps-worker/`).
-   - Set **Build Pack** to `Dockerfile` with path `tools/vps-worker/Dockerfile`.
-2. **Configure Environment Variables in Coolify**:
-   ```env
-   WP_URL=https://your-wordpress-site.com
-   VPS_TOKEN=coolify_secret_token_2026
-   WORKER_ACTION=process-llm
-   OPENROUTER_KEY=sk-or-v1-your-openrouter-api-key
-   OPENROUTER_MODEL=google/gemini-2.0-flash-001
-   BATCH_SIZE=25
-   ```
-3. **Configure Scheduled Task (Coolify Cron)**:
-   - Under **Scheduled Tasks** / Cron Jobs for the application, create a new schedule:
-     - **Cron Expression**: `0 * * * *` *(runs hourly)*
-     - **Command**: `php /app/worker.php`
-   - Click **Deploy** to build and launch the Alpine PHP container.
-4. **IMPORTANT — keep the container alive**: the Dockerfile `CMD` runs the worker once and exits, and Coolify's scheduled tasks execute via `docker exec` (which fails while a container is restarting). Coolify ignores `start_command` for `dockerfile` build packs, so set **Custom Docker Run Options** to `--entrypoint "tail -f /dev/null"`. This is a Coolify-side setting (not in the repo), so re-apply it if the application resource is ever recreated. The scheduled task remains the only worker driver.
-
----
-
-## 3. Automated Verification Checklist for the Agent
-1. **Verify Plugin ZIP Installation**: Confirm `peptidenews-v2.6.0.zip` installs and activates cleanly in WordPress Admin without warnings or missing dependencies.
-2. **Run Unit Tests Locally**: Execute `vendor/bin/phpunit` and confirm `OK (89 tests, 231 assertions)`.
-3. **Test One-Off Execution in Coolify**:
-   - Trigger the Coolify scheduled job or run `php /app/worker.php --action="pending"` inside the container.
-   - Confirm it connects to WordPress without HTTP 403 or 500 errors.
-4. **Check Gatekeeper Database State**:
-   - Confirm in WordPress Admin that legitimate scientific articles (`rigor_score >= 3`) receive structured Markdown summaries and tags.
-   - Confirm that rejected promotional spam (`rigor_score < 3` or `is_spam`) is automatically updated with `'is_active' => 0` and excluded from frontend widgets.

-# Peptide News Aggregator — Hybrid Shared Hosting + Coolify VPS Architecture
-
-This directory contains the **v2.6.0 Standalone VPS Worker**, designed for high-signal peptide news pipelines where WordPress is hosted on a **shared server (e.g., prepaid shared hosting)** and heavy AI/scraping processes are offloaded to a **dedicated Linux VPS running Coolify** (e.g., Hostinger KVM8).
-
----
-
-## Why Use a Hybrid Architecture?
-
-### 1. Shared Hosting Server (WordPress + Database)
-- **Strengths**: Serves public visitors, runs WordPress admin UI, stores `wp_peptide_news_articles`, and handles lightweight web WP-Cron tasks.
-- **Limitations**:
-  - PHP execution timeouts (60-second CGI limit).
-  - Shared IP addresses may be rate-limited or blocked by Google News or NCBI/PubMed.
-
-### 2. Dedicated VPS Worker (Coolify Container / Scheduled Task)
-- **Strengths**:
-  - Uncapped execution time for OpenRouter/Gemini 3-Step AI Pipeline calls.
-  - Dedicated VPS IP address for reliable PubMed E-utilities XML fetching and Google News redirect URL resolution.
-  - Zero load on your shared WordPress server's CPU or memory during AI article generation.
-  - Effortless management using **Coolify UI** or Coolify MCP.
-
----
-
-## How It Works
-
-```
-[Shared Hosting: WordPress Server]
-  ├── Hosts wp_peptide_news_articles & Web Admin Dashboard
-  └── REST API (/wp-json/peptide-news/v1/worker/*)
-          ▲                      ▲
-          │ 1. GET /pending      │ 3. POST /update (ai_summary, rigor_score)
-          ▼                      │
-[Coolify Instance on VPS: peptide-news-worker]
-  ├── Runs via Coolify Scheduled Task / Docker Container
-  └── Calls OpenRouter / Gemini API (3-Step Pipeline: Gatekeeper -> Extract -> Markdown Brief)
-```
-
----
-
-## Deploying on Coolify (Step-by-Step)
-
-### Step 1: Set a Secret Token in WordPress
-1. Log into your shared WordPress site dashboard.
-2. Go to **Settings** -> **Peptide News**.
-3. Under **VPS Worker Integration**, enter a secret token (e.g. `vps_secret_token_12345`) and save.
-
-### Step 2: Deploy to Coolify as a Scheduled Task (Recommended)
-1. In your Coolify dashboard, click **+ Add Resource** -> **Application** -> select your Git repository (or use **Dockerfile** deployment).
-2. Set the **Build Pack** to `Dockerfile` (pointing to `tools/vps-worker/Dockerfile`).
-3. Under **Environment Variables**, configure:
-   - `WP_URL`: `https://your-shared-wordpress-site.com`
-   - `VPS_TOKEN`: `vps_secret_token_12345`
-   - `WORKER_ACTION`: `process-llm`
-   - `OPENROUTER_KEY`: `sk-or-v1-...`
-   - `OPENROUTER_MODEL`: `google/gemini-2.0-flash-001`
-   - `BATCH_SIZE`: `25`
-4. Under **Scheduled Tasks** (or Coolify Cron Jobs), create a new schedule:
-   - **Cron Expression**: `0 * * * *` (runs every hour)
-   - **Command**: `php /app/worker.php`
-5. Click **Deploy**. Coolify will build the lightweight Alpine PHP container and execute the job automatically on schedule.
-
----
-
-## REST API Worker Endpoints
-
-All endpoints require either WordPress admin authentication OR a valid `X-Peptide-News-Token: <your-token>` header:
-
-- `GET /wp-json/peptide-news/v1/worker/pending?limit=20`  
-  Returns pending articles requiring AI analysis. The worker fetches this with the token also in the query string (`&token=...`) so the cached response is namespaced by the secret, which survives shared-host LiteSpeed caching that ignores `X-LiteSpeed-Cache-Control: no-cache`; the header is still sent alongside.
-- `POST /wp-json/peptide-news/v1/worker/update`  
-  Updates an article with completed AI summaries, tags, and scientific rigor scores.
-- `POST /wp-json/peptide-news/v1/worker/ingest`  
-  Bulk-ingests new articles scraped directly on the VPS into the WordPress database.
