* fix(image-pipeline): surface per-image failures in the event log
Two gaps made posts 650/657 appear to silently "lose" their featured
images on 2026-04-20:
1. The batch provider tagged each failed key with ['error' => ...] but
the ERROR log line it emitted didn't identify which key failed, so
operators couldn't tell image_a from image_b in the event log when
one of two parallel requests died.
2. Image_Pipeline::process_image_a/_b folded the per-key error into
$result['errors'] and returned silently, with no WARNING row. Ops
only learned about the miss when the outer catch in the caller fired
— and on the 2026-04-20 incident that outer catch didn't fire, so
nothing was logged at all except an unrelated pricing warning.
Fix:
- class-open-router-image-batch.php: collect_result() takes the request
key as its first argument and every Logger::error message reads
'OpenRouter batch image gen <class> for key "<key>": <detail>'.
Matches the shape of OpenRouter_Image_Support::log_retry.
- class-image-pipeline.php: process_image_a and process_image_b now
emit a Logger::warning('image_pipeline') row whenever $image_data is
missing or carries an error key, in addition to pushing to
$result['errors']. The warning fires whether or not the outer catch
runs.
Test: ImagePipelineTest::test_partial_batch_failure_emits_warning_log_row
mocks $wpdb, runs the pipeline with image_a erroring, and asserts at
least one warning/image_pipeline row was inserted.
No behavior change beyond logging; cost impact zero.

* feat(images): retry Cloudflare NSFW-blocked prompts with a sanitized fallback
Cloudflare's Workers AI FLUX.1 schnell content filter sometimes rejects
peptide-comic prompts as NSFW (HTTP 400, errors[].code === 3030). On
2026-04-20 this produced a silent publish-without-featured-image for
post #650 ("Semaglutide vs Tirzepatide") — the LLM-rewritten scene
tripped the filter and we had no recovery path.
New behaviour: on a 3030 response, the Cloudflare provider throws a
typed PRAutoBlogger_Image_NSFW_Blocked exception. The batch wrapper
catches it and tags the per-slot result with
`error_type: nsfw_blocked`. Image_Pipeline hands the results to a new
PRAutoBlogger_Image_NSFW_Retry helper, which reruns the blocked slot
once with a sanitized fallback prompt (title + style suffix, no LLM
rewrite). On success the retry result replaces the error entry; on a
second block, a WARNING is logged and the pipeline publishes without
that image — same terminal behaviour we had before, just explicit.
Files:
- New providers/class-image-nsfw-blocked.php — typed exception.
- providers/class-cloudflare-image-support.php — is_nsfw_error() +
throw_if_nsfw() helpers.
- providers/class-cloudflare-image-provider.php — calls throw_if_nsfw
inside the 4xx branch; batch catches the typed exception and marks
the result with error_type.
- core/class-image-prompt-builder.php — new public build_fallback_prompt
shim so the retry layer can reach the rule-based fallback without
going through the LLM path.
- New core/class-image-nsfw-retry.php — single-shot retry helper.
- core/class-image-pipeline.php — invokes the retry between batch
completion and per-slot processing.
- admin/class-settings-fields-extended.php — new toggle
`prautoblogger_image_nsfw_retry` (default on) in the Images section.
Tests:
- CloudflareImageProviderTest — 3030 response throws NSFW exception;
batch tags the per-slot result with `error_type: nsfw_blocked`.
- ImagePipelineTest — retry succeeds when provider returns a good
result on the second call; retry is skipped when the setting is off.
Cost impact: worst-case an extra Cloudflare call per NSFW-blocked slot
(~$0.000834). Current incidence ~2% of generations; ~+$0.00002 per
generation amortized. Immaterial.
Uninstall: new option covered by the existing prautoblogger_% LIKE
sweep in uninstall.php.

* feat(images): expose rewriter system prompt as admin setting
CEO feedback: every generated image is anchoring on the cartoon
peptide-with-arms-and-legs character because the hardcoded rewriter
system prompt both lists "anthropomorphized molecules" first in its
primer and ships a few-shot example that literally shows one. The ask
is to give CEO the lever without a code change.
Adds `prautoblogger_image_prompt_instructions` (textarea) in the
Images section. Default value is the existing REWRITER_SYSTEM_PROMPT
constant verbatim, so behaviour is unchanged on upgrade until someone
edits it. `Image_Prompt_Builder::rewrite_via_llm()` reads the option
at call time via a new `resolve_system_prompt()` helper and falls back
to the constant if the option is blank or whitespace-only, so a saved
empty value cannot brick image generation.
Const visibility flipped from `private` to `public` so the settings
field can reference it directly as the field default.
Tests:
- `test_rewrite_uses_setting_when_present` — option set, assert the
LLM's system message equals the option content.
- `test_rewrite_falls_back_to_default_when_setting_empty` — option
whitespace, assert the LLM's system message equals the constant.
Uninstall: new option covered by the existing prautoblogger_% LIKE
sweep in uninstall.php.
Cost impact: none by default. Future CEO edits will change prompt
length; current default is ~180 tokens, budget impact linear from
there.

* feat(images): collapse Image Provider + Image Model into a single dropdown
Until now, Image Provider and Image Model were two independent selects
in the admin UI. That let the CEO set Model=flux-1-schnell while
Provider was still openrouter — OpenRouter has no such model so every
image gen on posts 650/657 on 2026-04-20 returned HTTP 400, and the
article published without a featured image.
v0.8.0 removes the Image Provider field from the admin UI entirely.
The provider is now derived from the model's entry in the registry
every time the model is saved. A new
PRAutoBlogger_Image_Model_Registry::provider_for() helper centralises
the mapping, so admin save, the on-upgrade migration, and future
callers all read from one place.
On save, PRAutoBlogger_Admin_Page::sanitize_image_model() validates
the submitted slug against the registry:
- Known slug: persist it, and update `prautoblogger_image_provider` to
the paired provider as a side-effect.
- Unknown slug: add_settings_error with a clear message, and return
the previously-saved value so the site stays on a working model.
A one-shot v0.8.0 migration in
PRAutoBlogger::on_check_db_version() derives the provider from the
currently-saved model on first admin_init after the plugin is updated.
This auto-heals sites that were running mismatched pairs before the
upgrade, without requiring the admin to re-open settings.
`prautoblogger_image_provider` option key is preserved — all existing
reads in the pipeline, cost tracker, and validators continue to work
unchanged.
Tests (Services/ImageModelRegistryTest):
- Every registry entry has an id and a provider in {openrouter, cloudflare}.
- provider_for() returns the paired provider for a known slug.
- provider_for() returns '' for unknown/empty slugs.
Cost impact: none.
Migration idempotent via the `prautoblogger_migrated_image_provider_v080`
flag. Uninstall sweeps it along with every other plugin option.

* chore(v0.8.0): version bump + CHANGELOG + ARCHITECTURE.md for image bundle
Bump plugin header and PRAUTOBLOGGER_VERSION 0.7.3 → 0.8.0. Minor bump
because Commit D removes the Image Provider dropdown from admin (a
UX-visible change), not a patch.
CHANGELOG:
- Changed: collapsed Image Provider + Model dropdowns; provider derived.
- Added: Image Prompt Instructions setting; Retry NSFW-Blocked Images
setting.
- Fixed: silent per-image failures in the event log.
ARCHITECTURE.md:
- Stage 6b (Image Pipeline) callout now describes provider derivation
and the NSFW-retry fallback path.
- wp_options table lists the four new/changed keys
(`prautoblogger_image_provider` as derived, new
`prautoblogger_image_prompt_instructions`,
`prautoblogger_image_nsfw_retry`, and the one-shot migration flag
`prautoblogger_migrated_image_provider_v080`).
DB schema unchanged — no PRAUTOBLOGGER_DB_VERSION bump needed.
Final commit of the v0.8.0 image bundle (thread image-mime-bug).

New Peptide_Linker class scans generated HTML and wraps every mention
of a known peptide in a hyperlink to its /peptides/ database page.
Runs as post-processing in Publisher — no LLM involvement, 100% reliable.
Handles case-insensitive matching, hyphen/space variants, skips existing
<a> tags. Gracefully no-ops if PR Core is not active.
Removed prompt-based peptide linking from Content_Prompts (unreliable).

Two-pronged fix for repeated article topics:
1. Feed last 30 days of published article titles into the LLM analysis
prompt with explicit "avoid these" instruction. Zero cost — just
extra context in an existing API call.
2. Replace keyword-overlap dedup (60% word match) with embedding-based
cosine similarity via sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L12-v2 on
OpenRouter. Catches rephrasings that keyword matching misses
(e.g. "BPC-157 dosing" vs "how much BPC-157 to take"). Falls back
to keyword matching if the embedding API is unavailable.
Cost: ~$0.00001 per generation run ($0.02/M tokens, ~500 tokens/run).
New files:
- class-semantic-dedup.php — Embedding cosine similarity + keyword fallback
- class-open-router-embedding-provider.php — OpenRouter /embeddings client

The pipeline previously ran all articles sequentially in a single PHP
process. On Hostinger, this timed out at ~120s — enough for 1 article
but not 2+. Now the pipeline generates article 1 in-process, then
queues articles 2..N as individual WP-Cron events. Each article gets
its own PHP process with its own execution time budget, so we can
generate any number of articles regardless of server time limits.
Architecture:
- Pipeline_Runner: orchestrate (collect+analyze+score) + first article,
then serialize remaining ideas to wp_options and chain cron events
- Article_Worker (new): focused single-article worker extracted from
the pipeline loop — content gen + editorial + publish
- Executor: new on_process_article_queue() handler for chained events;
status poller re-schedules orphaned queue jobs automatically
- Article_Idea: added to_array() for queue serialization

Both Image A and Image B now fire concurrently through a single
generate_image_batch() call instead of sequentially. Total wall-clock
time equals the slowest image (~20s), not the sum (~40s), which
eliminates the Image B timeout problem on Hostinger where
max_execution_time killed the cron before the second request finished.
New files:
- class-open-router-image-batch.php — curl_multi orchestrator
- generate_image_batch() added to image provider interface
Pipeline refactored: prompts built upfront, single batch call, results
processed per-key. Cloudflare provider gets a sequential fallback.
Tests updated for batch API. All files under 300-line cap.

Completes the image + A/B experiment workstream by integrating
image generation into the post publishing pipeline.
New classes:
- class-image-pipeline.php: Orchestrates A/B generation (article-driven
Image A → featured; source-driven Image B → post meta). Each image
independently fallible; article publishes even if both fail.
- class-image-prompt-builder.php: Synthesizes visual prompts from article
title+content and Reddit source data. Appends CEO-locked 90s infomercial
style suffix. Keeps prompts concise for FLUX.1 quality.
- class-image-media-sideloader.php: Downloads image bytes, creates temp
file, sideloads via media_handle_sideload(), sets alt text and metadata,
cleans up temp files.
Changes to existing files:
- Publisher.attach_generated_images(): Runs image pipeline post-creation,
sets _thumbnail_id (Image A) and _prautoblogger_image_b_id (Image B).
Errors logged but don't block post publication.
- Settings: prautoblogger_image_enabled (toggle, default off).
Tests:
- ImagePipelineTest.php: Orchestration, cost tracking, graceful failures.
- ImagePromptBuilderTest.php: Prompt generation, length limits.
Docs:
- ARCHITECTURE.md: New step 6b in data flow, new files in file tree.
- CHANGELOG.md: Commit 1a/1b breakdown.

Implements image-provider interface + Cloudflare Workers AI adapter with pricing and validator. Independent QA verdict: APPROVE on 52fd11e (qa-reviews/prautoblogger/2026-04-15-52fd11e2ce97dd9e659df5cc87ec1382a668bec1.md). All 4 CTO blockers resolved (PHPUnit retry mocks, XSS hardening on error strings, PHPCS on new files, 300-line cap via support-class extraction). PHPCS backlog (586 errors across 38 pre-existing files) remains on continue-on-error; Workstream C material.
Adds a one-paragraph pointer at the top of ARCHITECTURE.md so any
engineer working in this single-app repo can find the cross-app
engineering reference material — Cloudflare AI Gateway routing,
OpenRouter account sharing, the interface pattern, image-generation
stack, social distributor choice — and the incident runbook for
cross-app failure modes (distributor down, LLM provider revoked,
budget burn runaway).
The referenced docs live in the CTO workspace at
`Peptide Repo CTO/docs/engineering/` as the canonical source. If
those docs need to be visible from app-only Cowork sessions later,
we'll mirror or move them to a shared mount.
No code changes. Pure docs.

Adds two WP options: prautoblogger_ai_gateway_base_url (routes OpenRouter calls through a Cloudflare AI Gateway when set to an https:// URL; empty = direct, the default) and prautoblogger_ai_gateway_cache_ttl (seconds for cf-aig-cache-ttl response caching; 0 = off).
The gateway is a transparent OpenRouter-compatible proxy, so no consuming class, no provider abstraction, and no response-parsing path changes. The http_api_curl belt-and-suspenders Authorization filter is rescoped to the configured upstream host so it still runs under gateway.ai.cloudflare.com.
Rationale: leverages existing Cloudflare infrastructure to satisfy the CTO cost-control rules (caching, cost tracking, rate limiting, fallback) without building equivalent middleware in-plugin. Fully opt-in and reversible from the admin UI.
Docs: ARCHITECTURE.md options + integrations tables updated; key decision #15 added. Uninstall is unaffected (wildcard prautoblogger_% delete).
