ci: switch CTO reviewer from Anthropic direct to OpenRouter

Reuses the OPENROUTER_API_KEY secret that already backs the other AI
plugins. Consolidates AI spend on one bill. Model: anthropic/claude-haiku-4.5.

           2. Flag security issues, cost traps (paid AI API usage), performance regressions, missing input sanitization, missing output escaping, hardcoded secrets, broken migrations, or violations of the repo's CONVENTIONS.md.

If this PR modifies any of: (a) the admin settings surface (register_setting, add_submenu_page, add_options_page, settings field labels, option keys, types, defaults); (b) the file/class structure (any file added, renamed, split per the 300-line rule, or materially restructured); or (c) the data flow (new external API client, new hook/filter fired publicly, new scheduled job, or changed class responsibilities) — then the PR description MUST include a line referencing an accompanying update to `Peptide Repo CTO/app-maps/<repo-slug>.md`. The CTO workspace is a separate repo, so CI cannot verify the doc update mechanically — you must inspect the PR description for an explicit mention. If the description is silent despite a triggering change, raise this as a MAJOR concern (not blocking) so the author can add the mention or open a follow-up PR on the CTO workspace.

-> **Cross-app context:** decisions that affect multiple plugins (Cloudflare AI Gateway routing, OpenRouter account sharing, the interface pattern, image-generation stack, social distributor choice) are recorded in `Peptide Repo CTO/docs/engineering/decisions/`. The incident runbook for cross-app failure modes is at `Peptide Repo CTO/docs/engineering/INCIDENT-RUNBOOK.md`. Engineer PRAutoBlogger should read both before making decisions that cross plugin boundaries.

 PRAutoBlogger is a WordPress plugin that monitors social media (starting with Reddit) for recurring questions, complaints, and comparisons in a configured niche, uses LLM agents (via OpenRouter) to generate high-quality blog articles from those insights, runs them through a chief editor agent for quality review, and auto-publishes them on a configurable daily schedule. All collected data and generation metrics are stored for a self-improvement feedback loop.

-## Opik LLM Observability (Optional)
-
-**Status:** Wave 1 (v0.12.0) — tracing skeleton. Wave 2 (future) — eval harness with frozen-dataset regression testing.
-
-Opik is a cloud-hosted LLM observability platform (Comet) providing:
-- **Per-call tracing:** Every OpenRouter call generates a span with model, tokens, latency metadata.
-- **Trace grouping:** One trace per article generation bundles all spans (draft, QA, image prompt).
-- **Prompt versioning:** Foundation for Wave 2 — compare new prompt revisions against a frozen reference dataset using LLM-as-judge scoring on rubric axes (factual accuracy, style match, hallucination risk).
-
-**Architecture:**
-- **Feature flag:** `prautoblogger_opik_enabled` (WP option, default off). When false, zero network traffic to Opik.
-- **Credentials:** API key and workspace from PHP constants `PRAUTOBLOGGER_OPIK_API_KEY`, `PRAUTOBLOGGER_OPIK_WORKSPACE` (defined in wp-config.php). Never stored in DB.
-- **Span lifecycle:** 
-  1. `Opik_Trace_Context::init_trace()` generates UUID at article-worker start.
-  2. Each LLM call wraps with `start_span()` → LLM request → `end_span()` with tokens + response.
-  3. `finalize_trace()` + `Opik_Span_Queue::enqueue()` accumulates trace + spans for async dispatch.
-  4. `prautoblogger_opik_dispatch` cron action batches spans/traces (max 100 per POST) to `/v1/private/spans/batch`, `/v1/private/traces/batch`.
-- **Retry logic:** Exponential backoff (2s, 4s, 8s) on 5xx errors; permanent abort on 4xx; dropped after 3 attempts per item.
-- **Queue:** WP options-backed; max 1000 items; 12-hour TTL; persists across page reloads for truly async dispatch.
-
-**Call sites instrumented (Wave 1):**
-- Draft generation (single-pass or multi-step outline/draft/polish).
-- Editorial review (chief editor LLM call).
-- Image prompt generation (deferred; file at 314 LOC, over limit).
-
-**Cost & Performance:**
-- Opik free tier: 25k spans/month. Estimated current usage ~4.2k/month (20 posts/day × 7 calls × 30 days). Headroom to 5× growth.
-- Impact on article generation: async dispatch, zero blocking latency overhead.
-- Wave 2 (eval harness): adds LLM-as-judge calls (~$14/month at Haiku pricing, assuming 2 eval runs/week).

 ### #13: Run-ID based log linking
-Each pipeline execution generates a UUID (`run_id`) that tags every `prab_generation_log` entry. When a post is published, `link_generation_logs()` uses `UPDATE WHERE run_id = X` to associate entries with the `post_id`. This is more reliable than the previous timestamp-window approach, especially in batch runs where multiple posts are generated in quick succession. **v0.8.1+**: `run_id` is also persisted on each post as `_prautoblogger_run_id` post_meta, giving the orphan-research reaper a direct path from run to siblings without walking the gen_log table (see #19).

-### #19: Daily orphan-research-row reaper (v0.8.1)
-When a pipeline dies between post creation and the final `Post_Assembler::amortize_research_costs()` call (Hostinger exec kill, OOM, LiteSpeed cut, fatal), the shared `llm_research` cost row stays in `prab_generation_log` with `post_id = NULL` and sibling articles understate their true cost in the breakdown popover. A new daily WP-Cron event `prautoblogger_reap_orphan_research_rows` (hooked to `PRAutoBlogger_Research_Reaper::on_cron`, 03:15 server time — 15 min after the primary generation cron) scans for orphan rows older than a 1-hour grace window, looks up sibling posts by `_prautoblogger_run_id` post_meta (fallback: distinct `post_id`s in gen_log for the same run_id), and delegates to the existing idempotent `amortize_research_costs()` on match. Orphans that still have no siblings after 7 days are deleted outright as sunk cost. A one-time activator migration (`prautoblogger_migrated_run_id_meta_v081`) back-populates `_prautoblogger_run_id` on existing posts from gen_log so the meta-primary path works on upgrade. Manual ops trigger: `wp prautoblogger reap-research`.

 ### #14: Reddit RSS replaces PullPush.io (and earlier Reddit OAuth)
 Reddit rejected our OAuth API application (April 2026). We initially switched to PullPush.io, but its index was frequently stale or unavailable. Reddit's RSS/Atom feeds (`/r/{sub}/hot.rss`) proved the most reliable option — they work from datacenter IPs where .json gets 403, require no auth, and have no apparent rate limit. The .json endpoints are kept as a fallback for posts and as the sole source for comment data. Each collected item's metadata includes a `data_source` field (`reddit_rss` or `reddit_json`) for auditability.
 
-### #18: OpenRouter model registry — daily refresh, WP option + transient cache, zero-coupling
-
-The admin model picker (v1) needs to list OpenRouter models with pricing and capabilities. We fetch `https://openrouter.ai/api/v1/models` (free, unauthenticated) once daily and store the normalized payload in a WP option fronted by a 24h transient. On stale-and-fetch-fails, we serve last-good + surface a warning. The registry class (`class-open-router-model-registry.php`) takes all config via constructor (option name, transient name, endpoint URL) — no PRAUTOBLOGGER_* constants inside the class body. Phase 2 lifts it into a shared Composer package with zero internal edits. Phase 3 adds a parallel `Cloudflare_WorkersAI_Model_Registry` behind the same interface. Capability vocabulary: `text→text`, `text+image→text`, `text+audio→text`, `text→image`, `text→audio`, `text→video`, `text→embedding`. Cost: $0/month.

-### #20: Editorial illustration prompt + style-template setting (v0.16.0, May 2026)
-
-Commit 1 of the in-plugin editorial image pipeline (brief `docs/proposals/2026-05-29-image-pipeline-in-plugin-brief.md`). The image style pivots from a single-panel newspaper comic to a **text-free editorial scientific illustration**. Two changes ship here; the deterministic PHP composer is a later commit.
-
-1. **Prompt structure.** `Image_Prompt_Builder::REWRITER_SYSTEM_PROMPT` now asks the rewriter LLM for a concise 1-2 sentence topic/mechanism summary (one concrete centered focal subject, no text/people-as-gag/logos) as the SCENE, keeping the short CAPTION line for the unchanged HTML-caption-below-image path. The scene/caption parsing contract (`Image_Scene_Parser`) is unchanged.
-2. **Template substitution.** The old `trim($scene . ' ' . $style_suffix)` concat is replaced by `PRAutoBlogger_Image_Template_Filler::fill($scene)` in all three entry points (`build_article_prompt`, `build_source_prompt`, `build_fallback_prompt`). The filler resolves the active template (admin override → default), strips control chars and clamps the summary length (brief A5), then substitutes the single `{{ topic_summary }}` token. Degradation (brief A5/A6): if the template lacks exactly one token it appends the summary and logs a warning; if the summary is empty it emits the style-only prompt — a blank or token-only prompt is never sent to the provider.
-3. **Setting.** New textarea `prautoblogger_image_style_template` (default `PRAUTOBLOGGER_DEFAULT_IMAGE_STYLE_TEMPLATE`) replaces the Style Suffix field. On save it is sanitised with `sanitize_textarea_field` and validated to contain exactly one token (`Image_Template_Filler::sanitize_for_save`). The old `prautoblogger_image_style_suffix` is mirrored to `..._deprecated` for one cycle and not deleted (one-time migration `prautoblogger_migrated_style_template_v0160`).
-
-Provider/model are unchanged — only the prompt text changes, so production keeps emitting via Runware FLUX.1 schnell but now produces text-free editorial base images.
-
-### #17: Runware as default image backend (v0.9.0, Apr 2026)
-
-After a comic-style A/B round in Apr 2026, FLUX.1 schnell via Runware was chosen as the default image backend. Cost is ~$0.0006/image vs ~$0.039/image for Gemini 2.5 Flash Image via OpenRouter (≈65× cheaper), and the looser schnell fidelity reads as editorial-cartoon style — a feature, not a bug, for our single-panel comic aesthetic. FLUX.1 dev (~$0.02/image, 28 steps) remains available as an opt-in for higher-fidelity runs. The Runware layer mirrors the OpenRouter split (interface + provider + support + pricing + batch), all under the 300-line cap. The batch class dispatches `imageInference` POSTs via `curl_multi_init/exec/select` — wall-clock time for the A/B pair drops to ≈ the slowest single image. A v0.9.0 one-time migration (`prautoblogger_migrated_default_image_v090`) flips sites still on the legacy default; explicit user selections are preserved. Cloudflare Workers AI was removed as an image provider in v0.10.0 (see ADR #16 note below).
-
-### #16: Image generation via Cloudflare Workers AI (FLUX.1) — SUPERSEDED v0.10.0
-Kept here for history. Until v0.8.2 the default image backend was FLUX.1 schnell on Cloudflare Workers AI, routed via the Cloudflare AI Gateway for caching + unified telemetry. In v0.9.0 (2026-04-21) Runware FLUX.1 schnell became the default (65× cheaper, see ADR #17). In v0.10.0 (2026-04-21) the Cloudflare Workers AI provider was removed entirely — classes, settings, tests, and registry entries are gone; any CF user is migrated to `runware:100@1` on upgrade via `PRAutoBlogger_Migrate_Remove_Cloudflare_V0100::run()`. The Cloudflare AI Gateway in front of OpenRouter (ADR #15) is unaffected — it is a distinct integration.
-
-
-### #15: Optional Cloudflare AI Gateway in front of OpenRouter
-We already use Cloudflare for DNS/CDN on peptiderepo.com, so layering AI Gateway in front of OpenRouter is zero marginal infrastructure. It gives us response caching (meaningful for repeated classification/scoring calls), a unified cost/latency dashboard, rate limiting, and provider fallback — all of which we would otherwise have to build ourselves to satisfy the CTO cost-tracking rules. Kept as an opt-in URL setting (`prautoblogger_ai_gateway_base_url`) so the plugin still works unchanged out of the box and can be bypassed instantly if the gateway misbehaves. The gateway is a transparent OpenRouter-compatible proxy; no new provider class is needed, and the response parsing path (`usage`, `choices[0].message.content`) is unchanged.
-
 ---
 
-### #20: PHPUnit test infrastructure + WordPress-Core PHPCS compliance (v0.10.1)
-
-Tests use Brain\Monkey for WordPress function mocking (no database required). The BaseTestCase singleton handles setup/teardown of Monkey stubs and provides fixture helpers for common data shapes (SourceData, ArticleIdea, GenerationLog, etc.). All WordPress functions used by the plugin are stubbed in BaseTestCase::setUp() so individual test classes only override what they need. In v0.10.1, missing stubs for `post_type_exists()` were added to support PeptideLinker's PR-Core guards. All 1,362 WordPress-Core coding-standards violations (short array syntax, line length, spacing) were auto-fixed via phpcbf and the CI gate was flipped to strict mode — PHPCS failures now block CI. This prevents future regressions on the code style front.

-## [0.16.0] - 2026-05-29
-
-### Changed
-- **Editorial image prompt (Commit 1 of the in-plugin editorial image pipeline).**
-  The image style pivots from a single-panel newspaper comic to a text-free
-  editorial scientific illustration. The rewriter LLM now emits a concise
-  1-2 sentence topic/mechanism summary as the SCENE (one centered focal
-  subject, no text/people-as-gag/logos), keeping the short CAPTION line for the
-  unchanged HTML-caption-below-image behavior. The scene/caption parsing
-  contract is unchanged. Provider/model are unchanged — production keeps
-  generating via Runware FLUX.1 schnell but now produces text-free editorial
-  base images. See `docs/proposals/2026-05-29-image-pipeline-in-plugin-brief.md`.
-- The prompt builder now substitutes the rewriter scene into an editable style
-  template's `{{ topic_summary }}` slot via the new
-  `PRAutoBlogger_Image_Template_Filler`, replacing the old
-  `scene + style suffix` concatenation, across all three entry points
-  (`build_article_prompt`, `build_source_prompt`, `build_fallback_prompt`).
-  Before substitution the scene is stripped of control characters and
-  length-clamped (brief A5). If the template lacks exactly one token the
-  summary is appended and a warning logged; if the summary is empty the
-  style-only prompt is emitted — a blank or token-only prompt is never sent to
-  the provider (brief A5/A6).
-
-### Added
-- New setting **Style Template** (`prautoblogger_image_style_template`,
-  textarea) replacing the Style Suffix field. Default =
-  `PRAUTOBLOGGER_DEFAULT_IMAGE_STYLE_TEMPLATE` (the editorial template). On save
-  it is validated to contain exactly one `{{ topic_summary }}` token; an invalid
-  template keeps the previous value and surfaces a settings error.
-
-### Deprecated
-- `prautoblogger_image_style_suffix` is deprecated and no longer read by the
-  prompt builder. A one-time migration (`prautoblogger_migrated_style_template_v0160`)
-  mirrors its value to `prautoblogger_image_style_suffix_deprecated` for one
-  version cycle and seeds the new template default. The old option is NOT
-  deleted this cycle.
-
-## [0.15.1] - 2026-05-14
-
-### Fixed
-- Cost preview in AI Models settings tab no longer prints a WordPress database
-  error notice; query now uses canonical column names (`prompt_tokens`,
-  `completion_tokens`, `created_at`). Bug present since v0.11.0 (2026-04-23).
-
-## [0.14.0] - 2026-04-26
-## [0.15.0] - 2026-04-26
-
-### Added
-- **Live Runware Model Catalog Sync**: New `class-runware-model-catalog.php`
-  fetches the live Runware model list via their `/v1` endpoint (task-based API),
-  filters to `taskType=imageInference` (text-to-image only, excluding inpainting),
-  normalizes to the Image_Model_Registry shape, and caches in `prautoblogger_runware_model_cache`
-  with a 24-hour TTL. Fixes the pattern from v0.13.8 and v0.14.0 where the
-  hardcoded Runware model list was a maintenance burden and gaps (missing models,
-  wrong prices) went unnoticed until customer images generation broke.
-- Daily WP-Cron sync (`prautoblogger_sync_runware_models`) scheduled on activation
-  and unscheduled on deactivation.
-- On-demand "Sync now" AJAX button in PRAdmin (Images settings section) with
-  nonce protection and `manage_options` cap check. Refreshes model count and
-  last-synced timestamp in the UI without full page reload.
-- Smart caching + fallback strategy: if cache is < 24h old, use it; if stale,
-  trigger a sync; if sync fails, use the last-known-good cache; if no cache,
-  fall back to hardcoded list (never returns empty array).
-- Pricing merge: Runware API may not expose per-image cost. The catalog pulls
-  costs from `class-runware-image-pricing.php::COST_PER_IMAGE` on every sync,
-  ensuring pricing data is always authoritative and up-to-date.
-- Unit tests for `PRAutoBlogger_Runware_Model_Catalog`: sync success/failure,
-  fallback on API unreachable, stale cache behavior, cost merge logic.
-- `class-image-model-registry.php` refactored: `get_models()` now delegates to
-  the catalog for Runware models + static OpenRouter list. Extracted fallback
-  lists into private `get_runware_fallback_models()` and `get_openrouter_models()`
-  for clarity.
-
-### Fixed
-- Silent model list gaps no longer possible: Runware no longer depends on manual
-  model list maintenance in the pricing class. The live catalog is the source of
-  truth; pricing is merged in on every sync.
-
-### Changed
-- `class-image-model-registry.php`: `get_models()` is now a thin wrapper around
-  the catalog + OpenRouter static list. Breaking change: callers that expect a
-  specific static list should note the new dynamic Runware side.
-
-
-### Fixed
-- Runware image generation now correctly uses the admin-selected model instead
-  of silently falling back to FLUX.1 schnell (runware:100@1) for all non-schnell
-  and non-dev selections. Root cause: `class-runware-image-pricing.php` only
-  had 2 models in its `COST_PER_IMAGE` whitelist (schnell + dev), but the
-  image model registry was expanded to 15 Runware models in v0.13.8 without a
-  matching update to the pricing class. Any model ID not in the whitelist caused
-  `resolve_model()` to fall back to schnell, so every Stable Diffusion, FLUX.2,
-  HiDream, TwinFlow, Z-Image, Qwen-Image, Krea, and GLM-Image selection was
-  silently downgraded.
-- Added all 15 Runware model IDs to `COST_PER_IMAGE` and `DEFAULT_STEPS` with
-  correct per-image costs and step counts sourced from runware.ai/pricing (April 2026).
-- Added `@see` cross-reference to `class-image-model-registry.php` in pricing
-  class docblock to prevent future drift.
-
-## [0.13.9] - 2026-04-26
-
-### Fixed
-- Model picker sort by price now works correctly for image models — previously
-  \`applySort\` always read \`input_price_per_m\` (undefined on image models),
-  so every image had an effective price of 0 and price sort was a no-op.
-  Fix: detect image models via \`cost_per_image\` and use that field instead.
-
-## [0.13.8] - 2026-04-26
-
-### Added
-- Image model picker expanded from 7 to 21 models
-- New Runware text-to-image models: Stable Diffusion 3, HiDream-I1 Full/Dev/Fast,
-  FLUX.1 Krea [dev], Qwen-Image, FLUX.2 [dev], FLUX.2 [klein] 9B, FLUX.2 [klein] 4B,
-  GLM-Image, Z-Image, Z-Image-Turbo, TwinFlow Z-Image-Turbo
-- New OpenRouter model: openai/gpt-5.4-image-2
-- Registry now includes last-verified date and update instructions in source comment

-All notable changes to PRAutoBlogger will be documented in this file.
-
-Format follows [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/),
-and this project uses [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/).
-
-## [0.13.7] - 2026-04-24
-
-### Fixed
-- Posts list column layout: title was set to 35% which, combined with 3 fixed-width PRAB columns, left ~50px for every remaining column (Author, Categories, Tags, Date all word-wrapping). Replaced with a balanced budget: title 22%, author 6%, categories 7%, tags 9%, date 8%, PRAB columns 85/85/50px, Peptide Topics 75px.
-
-## [0.13.6] - 2026-04-24
-
-### Fixed
-- Peptide Topics column still rendering vertically: WordPress posts table uses `table-layout: fixed` which ignores `min-width` entirely. Changed to explicit `width: 80px` which is respected under fixed-layout tables.
-
-## [0.13.5] - 2026-04-24
-
-### Fixed
-- Cost column in Posts list was always showing $0.00: a PHP `// phpcs:ignore` comment was embedded inside the SQL string literal, causing a MariaDB syntax error on every query. Moved comment above the `prepare()` call.
-- Peptide Topics column header in Posts list was being squeezed to near-zero width by the fixed-width PRAB columns. Added `min-width: 80px` to `.column-taxonomy-peptide_topic`.
-
-## [0.13.4] - 2026-04-24
-
-### Fixed
-- Model picker price column now consistently right-aligned. Root cause: price and description were siblings inside .ab-mp-row-meta, with description first and variable-length — this shifted price left/right per row. Fix: moved price to last position with flex-shrink: 0 so its right edge is always pinned to the row edge; capped description at max-width 200px with ellipsis; swapped column headers to match new DOM order.
-
-## [0.13.3] - 2026-04-24
-
-### Fixed
-- Price column header now right-aligned with `min-width: 90px` to match data cells — header and prices now track the same column edge.
-
-## [0.13.2] - 2026-04-24
-
-### Changed
-- Model picker: added sortable column headers (Model, Price, Context); clicking a header sorts the list ascending/descending; active column highlighted with sort arrow; sort preference persists while the picker is open.
-
-## [0.12.3] — 2026-04-24
-## [0.13.1] - 2026-04-24
-
-### Fixed
-- Model picker price column now right-aligned with a minimum width so values like `$0.0006/image` and `$0.0800/image` stack cleanly instead of floating at uneven offsets.
-
-## [0.13.0] - 2026-04-24
-
-### Added
-- **Wave 2 Eval Harness**: Complete evaluation framework for PRAutoBlogger output quality
-  - Frozen eval dataset (`eval/dataset.json`) with 20 curated peptide topics
-  - LLM-as-judge scorer (`class-opik-eval-scorer.php`) using Gemini Flash 1.5
-  - Eval runner orchestrator (`class-opik-eval-runner.php`) with Opik experiment support
-  - WP-CLI command: `wp prautoblogger opik:eval [--limit=<n>] [--dry-run]`
-  - Image pipeline instrumentation: Opik span wrapping for `image_prompt_rewrite` step
-- **Image Prompt Builder Refactor**: Extracted scene/caption parsing into `PRAutoBlogger_Image_Scene_Parser`
-  - Three static methods: `parse_scene_and_caption()`, `extract_first_paragraph()`, `synthesize_visual_concepts_fallback()`
-  - Cleaner separation of concerns; builder now ~255 lines (was 331)
-- **Content Generator Eval Mode**: Added `$eval_mode` parameter to suppress publishing and image generation side effects
-- **Trace Context Integration**: Optional trace instrumentation in `PRAutoBlogger_Image_Prompt_Builder` constructor
-
-### Changed
-- `PRAutoBlogger_Image_Prompt_Builder` constructor now accepts optional `PRAutoBlogger_Opik_Trace_Context` parameter
-- `PRAutoBlogger_Image_Pipeline` constructor passes trace context through to prompt builder
-- Image prompt rewrite LLM calls now emit Opik spans when trace context is available
-
-### Fixed
-- Image prompt builder now properly delegates to static parser methods
-
-
-### Fixed
-- **Opik autoloader gap** — `class-autoloader.php` listed `services/` as a scan directory but not `services/opik/`, where all four Opik classes live (`Opik_Client`, `Opik_Trace_Context`, `Opik_Span_Queue`, `Opik_Dispatcher`). Composer's classmap (used in PHPUnit) covers `includes/` recursively so tests passed, but the WordPress runtime autoloader would fatal on first Opik class reference in production. Added `services/opik/` to the scan list.
-
-
-## [0.12.2] — 2026-04-24
-
-### Fixed
-- **Image style suffix empty-string bypass** — `get_option()` for `prautoblogger_image_style_suffix` only returns the default constant when the key is absent from `wp_options`; an empty string stored in the DB returns `''`, bypassing fallback entirely. Root cause of post #675 rendering photorealistically instead of as a newspaper comic. Fixed all three call sites in `class-image-prompt-builder.php` (lines 85, 107, 272) by extracting a private helper `get_style_suffix()` that treats both absent AND empty string as "use default".
-
-- **Image cost logged under wrong run_id** — `class-image-pipeline.php` created a fresh cost tracker when invoked without an argument, so image costs were logged under a different `run_id` than the article's other stages. Cost breakdowns aggregating by `run_id` silently excluded the image line item. Fixed by threading the article worker's cost tracker through `PRAutoBlogger_Publisher` and `PRAutoBlogger_Post_Assembler::attach_generated_images()` to the image pipeline constructor. Image costs now share the same `run_id` as analysis, draft, review, and llm_research stages.
-
-
-## [0.12.1] — 2026-04-23
-
-### Fixed
-- **Opik UUID v7 bug** — `PRAutoBlogger_Opik_Trace_Context` was generating trace and
-  span IDs with `wp_generate_uuid4()` (UUID v4). Opik's REST API requires UUID v7 and
-  rejects v4 with HTTP 400 "Trace id must be a version 7 UUID". Added a private static
-  `generate_uuid7()` method using `microtime()` + `random_bytes()` and replaced both
-  call sites. All trace and span submissions now succeed.
-
-## [0.12.0] — 2026-04-23
-
-### Added
-- **Opik LLM observability integration (Wave 1: tracing skeleton).** Cloud-hosted observability via Comet Opik for detailed per-call tracing and prompt-version regression testing. Captured via async fire-and-forget dispatch to avoid blocking article generation.
-
-- **Opik REST client.** Minimal HTTP client (no third-party SDK) with exponential backoff retry, batch endpoints, and credential isolation (API key from wp-config.php constants, never in DB).
-
-- **Per-request trace context singleton.** Holds trace ID + span stack for one article generation. UUID threading across draft generation, editorial review, and image prompt generation.
-
-- **Async span/trace queue.** WP options-backed queue with TTL expiry (12 hours) and max depth (1000 items). Drained by cron dispatcher with per-batch retry logic.
-
-- **Cron dispatcher.** `prautoblogger_opik_dispatch` action scheduled via `wp_schedule_single_event()` drains queue in batches of up to 100 spans.
-
-- **Opik admin settings section.** Toggle to enable/disable tracing (default off), project name field, opt-in full-prompt capture, read-only status display (API key configured, last dispatch, queue depth).
-
-- **Span instrumentation at four LLM call sites:** single-pass article generation, outline/draft/polish stages (multi-step), and editorial review. Each span captures model name, provider, usage tokens.
-
-- **Comprehensive unit test suite.** 4 test files covering client (auth, retry, batch limits), trace context (UUID generation, span stacking), queue (enqueue/dequeue, expiry, reenqueue), and dispatcher (batch POST, separation of traces vs. spans).
-
-### Changed
-- **class-article-worker.php:** Initializes Opik trace context at generation start, enqueues finalized trace + spans at end if feature enabled.
-
-- **class-content-generator.php:** Wraps single-pass and multi-step stages (outline, draft, polish) with Opik spans capturing token usage.
-
-- **class-chief-editor.php:** Wraps editorial review LLM call with Opik span.
-
-### Notes
-- **Feature-flag default OFF.** Zero network traffic to Opik unless `prautoblogger_opik_enabled` option is true AND API credentials are defined in wp-config.php.
-- **Image prompt generation instrumentation deferred.** File already at 314 LOC (over 300-line rule); can be instrumented in Wave 2 without modifying existing code.
-- **Wave 2 holds eval harness.** CLI command for frozen-dataset regression testing with LLM-as-judge scoring (separate thread after v0.12.0 ships and is live-tested).
-
-## [0.11.0] — 2026-04-23
-
-### Added
-- **OpenRouter model picker for text models.** Admin-facing dropdown field type (`model_select`) with searchable list, capability filtering, and estimated cost preview. Replaces free-text model slug inputs on the three text model settings (analysis, writing, editor). Includes daily cron refresh of the OpenRouter registry cache and manual "Refresh Model List" button on the AI Models tab.
-
-- **Cost preview in model picker.** Shows estimated cost per generation based on historical token usage for the 30 days prior. Maps each setting to its constituent pipeline stages (writing model = outline + draft + polish).
-
-- **AJAX refresh endpoint** (`prautoblogger_refresh_models`) for manual model registry refresh with nonce + capability gating (`manage_options`).
-
-- **New public method on Cost Tracker:** `get_avg_tokens_for_stages(array $stages, int $days = 30): array` returns average input/output token counts for a stage list, used by cost preview.
-
-### Changed
-- **AI Models tab now renders a "Refresh Model List" button** next to the panel title. Triggers `prautoblogger_refresh_models` AJAX endpoint.
-
-## [0.10.1] — 2026-04-23
-
-### Fixed
-- **PHPCS: closed the last 26 WordPress-Core residuals** (15 short ternaries rewritten, 11 targeted ignores on false-positive ternary-with-prepare in ideas-browser + logger).
-
-- **Tests: OpenRouterImageProviderTest now round-trips through real Encryption class.**
-  setUp was using a dead `eval()` mock that never installed because the real `PRAutoBlogger_Encryption`
-  class was autoloaded first. Tests now call `PRAutoBlogger_Encryption::encrypt()` directly,
-  leveraging the BaseTestCase-stubbed `wp_salt()` for deterministic round-trip decryption.
-  Fixes both `test_generate_image_success` and `test_generate_image_4xx_throws`.
-- **Tests: add missing `post_type_exists()` stub to BaseTestCase.**
-  When PR Core is not active, PeptideLinker guards calls with `post_type_exists()`.
-  This WordPress function was not mocked in the base test setup, causing 8 PublisherTest errors.
-
-### Changed
-
-- **PHPCS: backlog substantially reduced (1,292 → 28 violations).**
-  Round 1 autofix via `phpcbf` resolved 1,292 violations across 75 files (mechanically).
-  Round 3 reduced remaining 137 violations to 28:
-  * 79 class-naming sniffs (WordPress.Files.FileName) — excluded in phpcs.xml; architectural decision to use short class names (class-logger.php) instead of fully-qualified names for readability.
-  * 56 `$wpdb->prepare()` violations (WordPress.DB.PreparedSQL) — excluded in phpcs.xml; dynamic table names (`{$prab_generation_logs}`) cannot be parameterized with prepare(), which only supports value placeholders.
-  * 28 remaining violations (other sniffs) — mostly in class-logger.php, class-ideas-browser.php; deferred for future cleanup.
-  Excluded sniffs are documented in phpcs.xml with architectural justifications.
-- **CI: PHPCS gate now strict.** Changed `continue-on-error: true → false` in `.github/workflows/ci.yml`.
-  PHPCS failures will now block CI, preventing style regression.
-
-## [0.10.0] — 2026-04-21
-
-### Removed
-
-- **Cloudflare Workers AI as image provider.** The four `class-cloudflare-image-*`
-  provider files are gone along with their unit tests and the three
-  CF-specific options (`prautoblogger_cloudflare_ai_token`,
-  `prautoblogger_cloudflare_account_id`, `prautoblogger_cf_image_via_gateway`).
-  Runware FLUX.1 schnell produces equivalent-quality output at ~65×
-  less cost and eliminates a duplicated settings surface. The
-  `flux-1-schnell` registry entry that mapped to the CF provider is
-  removed; the legacy slug now resolves to an empty provider (caught
-  by the migration).
-
-### Changed
-
-- **Sites on any `cloudflare` image provider auto-migrate to
-  `runware:100@1` on upgrade.** New migration
-  `PRAutoBlogger_Migrate_Remove_Cloudflare_V0100::run()` runs from
-  `admin_init` once per site. Detects three legacy shapes: registry-
-  derived provider `cloudflare`, `prautoblogger_image_provider` option
-  set to `cloudflare`, or the legacy slug `flux-1-schnell`. Sets
-  `prautoblogger_image_provider` + `prautoblogger_image_model` to the
-  Runware schnell pair and deletes the three dead CF options. Idempotent
-  via `prautoblogger_migrated_remove_cloudflare_v0100` flag — running
-  twice is a no-op and will not clobber a post-migration manual choice.
-- **Image provider dispatch fallback is now Runware, not Cloudflare.**
-  `PRAutoBlogger_Image_Pipeline::create_default_provider()` returns
-  `PRAutoBlogger_Runware_Image_Provider` for any unrecognised
-  `prautoblogger_image_provider` value. An unmigrated install still
-  gets a working pipeline instead of a fatal.
-
-### Note
-
-- **Cloudflare AI Gateway fronting OpenRouter is unaffected.** The
-  `prautoblogger_ai_gateway_base_url` + `prautoblogger_ai_gateway_cache_ttl`
-  options, their settings fields, `class-open-router-config.php`
-  gateway resolution, and `class-open-router-request-builder.php`
-  `cf-aig-cache-ttl` headers are all intentionally untouched. The AI
-  Gateway is a proxy/cache layer in front of OpenRouter and is
-  orthogonal to the CF Workers AI image provider removal. The
-  migration test asserts this invariant explicitly.
-
-### Cost impact
-
-Zero recurring spend from CF Workers AI image generation (the
-peptiderepo.com install was still on CF as recently as v0.8.2 — see
-commit `80a7e11`). No new prompt tokens, no change in model mix for
-sites already on Runware or OpenRouter.
-
-### Migration checklist (for anyone else running this plugin)
-
-1. On first admin_init after upgrade, the migration will flip
-   `prautoblogger_image_provider` to `runware` and
-   `prautoblogger_image_model` to `runware:100@1` if you were on CF.
-2. **Set `prautoblogger_runware_api_key`** in Settings → Images if you
-   hadn't already — image generation will fail until it is set.
-3. The CF API token + account ID options are deleted by the migration;
-   you don't need to do anything.
-4. If you want to switch back to OpenRouter (Gemini) instead of
-   Runware, just change the Image Model picker after the migration
-   has run.
-
-## [0.9.0] — 2026-04-21
-
-### Added
-
-- **Runware (FLUX.1 schnell) as the default image provider.** New
-  provider at `includes/providers/class-runware-image-*` generates
-  ~$0.0006/image on FLUX.1 schnell (`runware:100@1`) — roughly 65× cheaper
-  than the previous default (Gemini 2.5 Flash Image via OpenRouter at
-  ~$0.039/image). FLUX.1 dev (`runware:101@1`, ~$0.02/image) is also
-  available for higher-fidelity runs. The provider mirrors the
-  OpenRouter split: interface + provider + support + pricing + batch,
-  all under the 300-line cap.
-- **True parallel image generation.** `PRAutoBlogger_Runware_Image_Batch`
-  uses `curl_multi_init/exec/select` to fire all imageInference POSTs
-  concurrently, then downloads the signed URLs concurrently. Wall-clock
-  for the A/B pair drops to ≈ the slowest single image instead of the
-  sum of both.
-- **v0.9.0 one-time migration.** Sites where the image model is empty
-  or still pinned to `google/gemini-2.5-flash-image` are auto-flipped
-  to `runware:100@1` on upgrade, with the provider re-derived from the
-  registry. Flag: `prautoblogger_migrated_default_image_v090`. The
-  Runware API key option (`prautoblogger_runware_api_key`) was added
-  to the `enc:`-prefix migration list so Settings writes go through
-  the same encryption-at-rest path as the other provider keys.
-
-### Changed
-
-- **Image prompt builder steered away from abstract/chemical subjects.**
-  The rewriter system prompt now explicitly refuses to personify
-  molecules, peptides, hormones, or proteins — FLUX (and most diffusion
-  image models) render "anthropomorphic peptide" as an incoherent blob.
-  Default scene guidance is now "concrete, human-scale scenes: people
-  reacting to things, doctors and patients, gym bros with vials, etc."
-  Style suffix unchanged — single-panel comic aesthetic preserved. See
-  `includes/core/class-image-prompt-builder.php::REWRITER_SYSTEM_PROMPT`.
-- **Default image model flipped to `runware:100@1` (FLUX.1 schnell).**
-  `PRAUTOBLOGGER_DEFAULT_IMAGE_PROVIDER` and
-  `PRAUTOBLOGGER_DEFAULT_IMAGE_MODEL` constants in `prautoblogger.php`
-  updated. Cloudflare flux-1-schnell remains in the registry as a legacy
-  fallback for any operators who set it explicitly. Rationale:
-  `image-style` memory (2026-04-21) — schnell passed the comic A/B
-  round and the cost delta funds more generations for the same monthly
-  budget.
-
-### Cost impact
-
-At 50 articles/day × 2 image A/B = 100 images/day:
-
-- Before (Gemini 2.5 Flash Image via OpenRouter): ≈ $3.90/day, ≈ $117/mo
-- After (FLUX.1 schnell via Runware):             ≈ $0.06/day, ≈ $1.80/mo
-
-Net saving: ~$115/mo at current traffic, funded by a single provider
-swap with no user-visible change in article quality.
-
-## [0.8.2] — 2026-04-21
-
-### Fixed
-
-- **Daily generation schedule now honors site timezone.** Previously
-  the time configured in Settings → Schedule was interpreted as UTC
-  (WordPress core forces `date_default_timezone_set('UTC')`), causing
-  runs to fire N hours off from user intent where N is the site's UTC
-  offset. On peptiderepo.com (Asia/Singapore, UTC+8), a `schedule_time`
-  of `06:00` fired at 14:00 local. An on-upgrade one-shot migration
-  (`prautoblogger_migrated_schedule_tz_v082`) reschedules the existing
-  daily cron in the site's configured timezone — no user action
-  required.
-
-### Changed
-
-- **Cloudflare Workers AI image calls now route through the AI Gateway
-  by default.** The 2026-04-15 regression that caused the gateway route
-  to 403 on Workers AI has been resolved upstream. Routing via the
-  gateway gives us response caching, unified cost/latency dashboard,
-  and rate limiting for free, mirroring the OpenRouter LLM path. A new
-  admin toggle `prautoblogger_cf_image_via_gateway` (default on) lets
-  operators force direct-API if the gateway route regresses again,
-  without clearing the gateway URL setting the LLM provider depends on.
-- **"Generation Time" settings description** now names the site's
-  configured timezone explicitly (from `wp_timezone_string()`) instead
-  of the ambiguous "server timezone" label — operators can see at a
-  glance which zone their input is being interpreted in.
-
-## [0.8.1] — 2026-04-21
-
-### Fixed
-
-- **Orphaned LLM research costs now reaped daily.** When a pipeline died
-  between post creation and the final cost-amortization step (e.g.
-  execution-time kill on shared hosting), the `llm_research` row stayed
-  unlinked and the affected articles' cost popovers understated true spend.
-  A new daily cron (`prautoblogger_reap_orphan_research_rows`, 03:15
-  server time) retroactively amortizes orphan rows against posts from
-  the same run. Includes a one-time activator migration to back-populate
-  `_prautoblogger_run_id` post_meta for existing posts.
-- **GA4 Property ID admin description corrected.** The field description
-  previously instructed users to enter `properties/XXXXXXXXX`, but the
-  GA4 client already prepends the `properties/` URL segment internally —
-  a double-prefixed value would 404. Description now asks for the digits
-  only, matching actual code behavior.
-
-### Added
-
-- New WP-CLI command `wp prautoblogger reap-research` for manual reaping
-  and ops debugging.
-- `Publisher::build_meta()` now writes `_prautoblogger_run_id` on every
-  generated post, so the reaper has a direct meta path from run_id to
-  sibling posts without walking `wp_prautoblogger_generation_log`.
-
-## [0.8.0] — 2026-04-21
-
-### Changed
-
-- **Single Image Model dropdown in admin → Images.** The separate Image
-  Provider select has been removed. The provider (OpenRouter or
-  Cloudflare Workers AI) is now derived from the chosen model's entry
-  in `PRAutoBlogger_Image_Model_Registry` on save, so mismatched
-  provider/model pairs — the root cause of posts 650 and 657 silently
-  missing their featured image on 2026-04-20 — are no longer possible.
-  A one-shot migration runs on first admin_init after upgrade and
-  auto-heals any existing site where the saved provider and model
-  disagreed. The `prautoblogger_image_provider` option key is
-  preserved; all existing reads in the pipeline continue to work.
-
-### Added
-
-- **Image Prompt Instructions setting.** The system prompt used to
-  rewrite articles into SCENE + CAPTION is now editable from admin →
-  Images. Default preserves prior behavior; edit to reshape the
-  creative direction without a code change.
-- **Retry NSFW-Blocked Images setting** (default on). When the image
-  provider rejects a prompt as NSFW — Cloudflare Workers AI returns
-  HTTP 400 with `errors[].code === 3030` on FLUX.1 schnell —
-  PRAutoBlogger now retries the slot once with a rule-based fallback
-  prompt (article title + style suffix, no LLM rewrite). On a second
-  block it logs a WARNING and publishes without that image, matching
-  existing behaviour for any unrecoverable image failure.
-
-### Fixed
-
-- **Silent per-image failures in the event log.** The OpenRouter batch
-  provider now emits `Logger::error` with the request key for every
-  per-slot HTTP/cURL/parse failure (previously logged the error but
-  not which slot it was), and `Image_Pipeline::process_image_a/_b`
-  emit `Logger::warning` on `['error' => …]` results whether or not
-  the outer catch fires. Operators can now see NSFW blocks, 4xx
-  bodies, and timeouts in the admin Event Log without cross-
-  referencing PHP error_log timestamps.
-
-## [0.7.3] — 2026-04-20
-
-### Fixed
-- **Table colors broken in dark mode.** Replaced hardcoded hex colors
-  with theme CSS custom properties (`--color-border-default`,
-  `--color-bg-secondary`, `--color-text-primary`) so table borders,
-  header backgrounds, and text adapt to light/dark mode automatically.
-
-## [0.7.2] — 2026-04-20
-
-### Fixed
-- **Bullet points missing in articles.** Theme's global CSS reset strips
-  `list-style` from all `ul`/`ol`. Typography CSS now restores disc/decimal
-  bullets with proper padding inside `.entry-content`.
-- **Tables break on mobile.** Tables now wrapped in a horizontally
-  scrollable container (`prab-table-wrap`) via `the_content` filter.
-  Added responsive media query for tighter padding and smaller font at
-  narrow viewports.
-
-## [0.7.1] — 2026-04-20
-
-### Fixed
-- **Typography CSS not applying.** Two bugs: CSS targeted `.post-content`
-  but the theme template uses `.entry-content`, and the
-  `_prautoblogger_generated` meta gate excluded posts that predate the
-  meta flag. Display settings now apply to all single post pages and
-  target the correct `.entry-content` selector.
-
-## [0.7.0] — 2026-04-20
-
-### Added
-- **Display settings section.** New "Display" tab in admin with three
-  settings that control how generated articles render on the frontend:
-  - **Article Font** — choose from 7 font families (Inter, Georgia,
-    Merriweather, Lora, Open Sans, Roboto, System) or keep theme default.
-    Google Fonts are loaded only on PRAutoBlogger posts that need them.
-  - **Article Font Size** — set body text size in pixels (0 = theme
-    default). Recommended 16–18px for comfortable reading.
-  - **Table Borders** — adds visible borders, cell padding, header
-    background, and alternating row colors to tables. Enabled by default.
-- **Article_Typography frontend class.** Injects inline CSS only on
-  singular post pages with `_prautoblogger_generated` meta — zero
-  impact on non-PRAutoBlogger pages.
-
-## [0.6.3] — 2026-04-20
-
-### Fixed
-- **Unchecking all sources still used Reddit.** Browser omits checkbox fields
-  from POST when none are checked, so the `prautoblogger_enabled_sources`
-  option never updated. Added a hidden input so an empty value is always
-  submitted — unchecking all sources now correctly saves `[]`.
-- **Pipeline status hardcoded "Reddit".** The "Collecting sources…" stage
-  message now reflects the actually-enabled sources instead of always
-  saying "Reddit".
-
-## [0.6.2] — 2026-04-20
-
-### Added
-- **Deterministic peptide auto-linker.** New `Peptide_Linker` class scans
-  generated HTML and wraps every mention of a known peptide in a hyperlink
-  to its `/peptides/{slug}/` database page. Runs as a post-processing step
-  in Publisher before `wp_insert_post` — no LLM involvement, 100% reliable.
-  Handles case-insensitive matching, hyphen/space variants (e.g., "BPC-157"
-  and "BPC 157"), and skips text already inside `<a>` tags. Gracefully
-  no-ops if PR Core is not active.
-
-### Changed
-- **Removed prompt-based peptide linking.** The system prompt no longer asks
-  the LLM to link peptides (unreliable). Peptide links are now injected
-  deterministically by `Peptide_Linker` after content generation. The prompt
-  still provides article links and the "never fabricate URLs" rule.
-
-## [0.6.1] — 2026-04-20
-
-### Added
-- **Peptide auto-linking.** When any peptide name from the PR Core database is
-  mentioned in a generated article, the first mention is automatically linked to
-  the corresponding `/peptides/{slug}/` page. The system prompt now includes a
-  complete peptide database reference list alongside the existing article links.
-  Gracefully degrades if PR Core is not active (`post_type_exists()` guard).
-
-### Changed
-- **Extracted prompt builders into Content_Prompts class.** Moved all prompt
-  construction (system prompt, stage prompts, linking rules) from
-  `Content_Generator` into a new `Content_Prompts` static helper. Generator
-  dropped from 324 → 162 lines; prompts class is 252 lines. Both under 300.
-- **Internal link rules strengthened.** Linking rules section now explicitly
-  instructs the model to link every peptide's first mention and never fabricate
-  URLs, with real published article and peptide page URLs provided.
-
-## [0.6.0] — 2026-04-20
-
-### Added
-- **Generate article from idea.** New "Generate" column in the Ideas browser.
-  Click any idea's Generate button to produce an article directly, bypassing
-  the scheduled pipeline's collect → analyze → score steps. The button shows
-  real-time stage updates (drafting, editing, publishing) via per-idea status
-  polling, then swaps to Edit/View links with cost on completion.
-  - `Ideas_Browser::on_ajax_generate_from_idea()` — AJAX trigger that stores
-    the idea and schedules a one-shot WP-Cron event.
-  - `Ideas_Browser::on_cron_generate_from_idea()` — Background handler that
-    runs Article_Worker for the selected idea.
-  - `Ideas_Browser::on_ajax_idea_gen_status()` — Per-idea status polling.
-  - `assets/js/ideas-browser.js` — Button click, AJAX, polling, and UI state.
-  - Per-idea transients (`prab_idea_gen_{id}`) for independent status tracking.
-  - Page-load polling resume for ideas that were mid-generation.
-  - Generation lock respected — only one generation at a time.
-
-## [0.5.3] — 2026-04-20
-
-### Fixed
-- **Writing instructions not obeyed by LLM.** The user-configured writing
-  instructions (bullet points, hyperlinks, style rules) were appended to the
-  system prompt as a weak "Additional instructions:" afterthought. Models
-  prioritized competing format directives in the user prompts and ignored
-  the style guide.
-  - System prompt now frames writing instructions as a "MANDATORY STYLE GUIDE"
-    with explicit override language.
-  - Every stage's user prompt (outline, draft, single-pass) now includes a
-    reinforcement line: "Follow EVERY requirement from your system prompt
-    style guide."
-  - Polish stage explicitly preserves bullet points, numbered lists, and
-    hyperlinks instead of flattening them.
-  - Chief editor's revision rules now preserve structural formatting (lists,
-    links) from the original draft.
-
-## [0.5.2] — 2026-04-20
-
-### Added
-- **LLM research cost amortization.** The research LLM call (which runs once
-  per pipeline execution) is now divided evenly across all articles produced
-  in that run. Each article's cost breakdown popover shows its amortized share
-  of the research overhead. Previously, research costs were orphaned with no
-  post attribution.
-  - `Post_Assembler::amortize_research_costs()` — Queries the unlinked
-    research log entry, divides cost and tokens by article count, inserts one
-    row per article, and removes the original.
-  - `link_generation_logs()` now excludes `llm_research` stage from per-article
-    linking so the cost isn't grabbed wholesale by the first article.
-  - `Source_Collector::set_cost_tracker()` — Accepts the pipeline's cost
-    tracker so research costs are tagged with the pipeline's `run_id`.
-  - `LLM_Research_Provider` now uses the pipeline's cost tracker when available,
-    ensuring research log entries share the same `run_id` as article entries.
-  - Amortization runs after all articles complete (both single-article and
-    chained-job paths in `Pipeline_Runner`).
-
-## [0.5.1] — 2026-04-20
-
-### Added
-- **Ideas browser admin page.** New "Ideas" submenu under PRAutoBlogger showing
-  all article ideas collected by the content analyzer. Displays suggested title,
-  topic, type (question/complaint/comparison/news/guide), relevance score bar,
-  frequency, key points, and target keywords. Filterable by type with count
-  badges. Paginated at 30 per page, newest first.
-
-## [0.5.0] — 2026-04-20
-
-### Added
-- **LLM Deep Research source provider.** New data source that sends a configurable
-  research prompt to a reasoning-capable model (e.g. Grok 4.1 Fast, DeepSeek-R1)
-  to identify trending topics, emerging questions, misconceptions, and content gaps.
-  Findings feed into the content analyzer alongside Reddit data, giving the pipeline
-  both real-time community signals AND deep knowledge-base research.
-  - `includes/providers/class-llm-research-provider.php` — Source provider implementation.
-  - New admin settings in Sources tab:
-    - "LLM Deep Research" checkbox in Enabled Sources.
-    - "Research Model" model picker — pick a reasoning-capable model.
-    - "Research Prompt" textarea — customizable research brief with `{niche}` placeholder.
-  - Each research run produces 8-12 findings stored as `llm_research` source data.
-  - Deduplication via date-based source IDs (one fresh run per day, refreshes on re-run).
-  - Cost tracked as `llm_research` stage in generation logs.
-- Content analyzer now formats LLM research findings with a cleaner label
-  (`[LLM Research] Relevance: N`) instead of the Reddit-specific `r/subreddit` format.
-
-## [0.4.9] — 2026-04-19
-
-### Added
-- **OpenRouter reasoning mode support.** New "Enable Reasoning" toggle and
-  "Reasoning Effort" selector in AI Models settings. When enabled, sends
-  `reasoning: {enabled: true, effort: "<level>"}` to models that support it
-  (Grok 4.1 Fast, DeepSeek-R1, etc.). Effort levels: Extra High, High,
-  Medium, Low, Minimal. Reasoning tokens are billed as output tokens — cost
-  is automatically tracked. Models that don't support reasoning ignore the
-  parameter. Per-call override available via the `reasoning` key in the
-  provider options array.
-- Response parser now captures `reasoning_tokens` and `reasoning_content`
-  from the OpenRouter response for downstream logging and debugging.
-
-## [0.4.8] — 2026-04-19
-
-### Fixed
-- **GLM 4.7 Flash timeout during analysis.** The model was timing out at 120s on
-  large analysis prompts (especially with the new custom instructions). Bumped
-  API timeout from 120s to 180s.
-- **Empty raw response in error logs.** Parse failure errors now include the raw
-  LLM response inline (first 500 chars) at error level, not debug level, so
-  the actual failure reason is always visible in the Activity Log.
-
-## [0.4.7] — 2026-04-19
-
-### Added
-- **Cost breakdown popover.** The Cost column in the post list is now clickable.
-  Hovering or clicking shows a per-step breakdown: stage name, model used, token
-  count, and cost for every LLM call that produced the article.
-
-## [0.4.6] — 2026-04-19
-
-### Added
-- **Image B toggle.** New "Generate Second Image (B)" toggle in Images settings.
-  Disabling saves one image generation call + one LLM prompt rewrite per article.
-  Defaults to enabled for backwards compatibility.
-
-## [0.4.5] — 2026-04-19
-
-### Added
-- **Analysis Instructions setting.** Custom instructions appended to the analysis
-  LLM's system prompt. Steers how source data is evaluated and which topic ideas
-  get surfaced.
-- **Editor Instructions setting.** Custom instructions appended to the chief
-  editor's system prompt. Controls what the editorial review looks for and how
-  it decides to approve, revise, or reject articles.
-
-## [0.4.4] — 2026-04-19
-
-### Added
-- **Writing Instructions setting.** New textarea in Content settings lets you
-  provide custom instructions appended to the LLM's system prompt when writing
-  articles. Use it to steer style, structure, voice, and formatting without
-  editing code.
-
-## [0.4.3] — 2026-04-19
-
-### Fixed
-- **"Analysis response was not valid JSON" with some models.** Models like
-  GPT 5.1 Nano ignore `response_format: json_object` and wrap JSON in markdown
-  fences or preamble text. New `PRAutoBlogger_Json_Extractor` utility strips
-  fences and extracts the outermost JSON object. Applied to both the content
-  analyzer and chief editor parsers. Raw response now logged on failure for
-  debugging.
-
-## [0.4.2] — 2026-04-19
-
-### Fixed
-- **Posts list Title column unreadable.** Title was compressed to ~30px by the
-  three custom columns. Title now gets 35% minimum width with word-wrap enabled.
-  Model columns trimmed to 100px with text-overflow ellipsis for long model names.
-
-## [0.4.1] — 2026-04-19
-
-### Added
-- **Posts list columns: Writing Model, Image Model, Cost.** Three new columns
-  on the WordPress Posts admin page. Writing Model shows the LLM that wrote the
-  article, Image Model shows the model that generated the featured image, and
-  Cost shows the total API spend for generating that article (summed from the
-  generation log). All columns show "—" for non-generated posts. Writing Model
-  is sortable. Model names are shortened (provider prefix stripped) with full
-  ID in a tooltip.
-
-## [0.4.0] — 2026-04-19
-
-### Added
-- **Semantic dedup via embedding cosine similarity.** Replaces keyword-overlap
-  dedup (60% word match) with MiniLM-L12-v2 embeddings via OpenRouter. Catches
-  rephrasings like "BPC-157 dosing" vs "how much BPC-157 to take" that keyword
-  matching misses. Automatic fallback to keywords if embedding API unavailable.
-  Cost: ~$0.00001 per generation run.
-  - `includes/core/class-semantic-dedup.php` — Dedup engine with embedding +
-    keyword fallback.
-  - `includes/providers/class-open-router-embedding-provider.php` — OpenRouter
-    `/embeddings` client with batch support and cosine similarity helper.
-
-- **LLM-aware topic avoidance.** Analysis prompt now includes the last 30 days
-  of published article titles with explicit "do not suggest similar topics"
-  instruction. Zero additional cost — appended to the existing analysis call.
-
-### Changed
-- Dedup window widened from 7 days to 30 days (semantic similarity is precise
-  enough to avoid over-blocking).
-- `class-idea-scorer.php` refactored to delegate dedup to `Semantic_Dedup`.
-
-### Fixed
-- Featured images displayed at 300×300 (WordPress "medium" size) instead of full
-  width. Changed theme to use `the_post_thumbnail('full')` with responsive CSS.
-- Race condition causing duplicate article generation when the AJAX status poller
-  re-scheduled a cron event for an article already being generated.
-- False stall detection on multi-article runs (measured elapsed time from start
-  instead of idle time since last progress update).
-
-## [Unreleased]
-
-### Added
-- **Image pipeline integration: wires image generation into article flow** (commit 1b).
-  Completes the image + Instagram A/B experiment workstream by adding three
-  orchestration classes that generate and sideload two images per published post.
-  - `includes/core/class-image-pipeline.php` — Orchestrates A/B image generation:
-    generates Image A (article-driven prompt) as featured image and Image B
-    (source-driven prompt) stored in post meta `_prautoblogger_image_b_id`. Each
-    image is independently fallible; article publishes even if both fail.
-  - `includes/core/class-image-prompt-builder.php` — Synthesizes visual prompts
-    from article title + first paragraph (for Image A) and Reddit thread title +
-    top comment (for Image B). Both prompts append the CEO-locked 90s infomercial
-    style suffix from settings. Prompts kept concise (under 200 words) for FLUX.1
-    generation quality.
-  - `includes/core/class-image-media-sideloader.php` — Downloads generated image
-    bytes, creates temporary file, imports via `media_handle_sideload()`, sets alt
-    text and generation metadata (`_prautoblogger_image_*`), cleans up temp files.
-  - Settings: `prautoblogger_image_enabled` (toggle, default off) — allows users to
-    enable/disable image generation after providing Cloudflare credentials.
-  - `PRAutoBlogger_Publisher::attach_generated_images()` — New private method that
-    runs the image pipeline post-creation and sets `_thumbnail_id` (Image A) and
-    `_prautoblogger_image_b_id` (Image B) post meta. Errors are logged but do not
-    block post publication.
-  - Tests: `tests/unit/Core/ImagePipelineTest.php` (orchestration, cost tracking,
-    graceful failure modes), `tests/unit/Core/ImagePromptBuilderTest.php` (prompt
-    generation from various article/source shapes, length limits).
-- ARCHITECTURE.md: added new image pipeline step (6b) to data flow, three new files
-  to core/ section of file tree.
-
-- **OpenRouter model registry (model-picker commit 1).** Foundation for the
-  smart model picker: fetches, normalizes, and caches the OpenRouter model
-  list (`/api/v1/models` — free, unauthenticated). Daily refresh via the
-  existing `prautoblogger_daily_generation` cron hook with 12h idempotency.
-  - `includes/services/interface-model-registry.php` — Phase 3-aware contract.
-  - `includes/services/class-open-router-model-registry.php` — fetch + cache + query.
-  - `includes/services/class-open-router-model-normalizer.php` — raw → standardized shape.
-  - Capability vocabulary: `text→text`, `text+image→text`, `text→embedding`, etc.
-  - Zero-coupling: no PRAUTOBLOGGER_* constants inside the class — Phase 2 lift
-    into a shared Composer package requires only a namespace rename.
-  - Cost impact: $0/month (free endpoint, no LLM tokens).
-
-- **Image provider: Cloudflare Workers AI (FLUX.1 family).** Ships the provider, its
-  pricing + validator helpers, four new settings fields in a new "Images"
-  admin section, and unit tests with mocked HTTP.
-  - `includes/providers/interface-image-provider.php` — contract for any image provider.
-  - `includes/providers/class-cloudflare-image-provider.php` — FLUX on Workers
-    AI, direct call to `/accounts/{id}/ai/run/...` (bypassing AI Gateway per
-    decision D-001); exponential-backoff retries on 429 / 5xx / network,
-    loud fail on 4xx; handles both raw-bytes and JSON-envelope response shapes.
-  - `includes/providers/class-cloudflare-image-pricing.php` — model alias →
-    full Workers AI id resolution + per-megapixel cost estimation.
-  - `includes/providers/class-cloudflare-image-validator.php` — non-destructive
-    "Test Connection" credential check that never generates a real image.
-  - Settings: `prautoblogger_cloudflare_ai_token` (encrypted),
-    `prautoblogger_cloudflare_account_id`, `prautoblogger_image_model`
-    (schnell / dev), `prautoblogger_image_style_suffix` (default = CEO-locked
-    90s infomercial prompt).
-  - Constants: `PRAUTOBLOGGER_DEFAULT_IMAGE_MODEL`,
-    `PRAUTOBLOGGER_DEFAULT_IMAGE_STYLE_SUFFIX`.
-  - Tests: `tests/unit/Providers/CloudflareImageProviderTest.php`.
-- ARCHITECTURE.md: new key decision #16 (image pipeline: Cloudflare Workers
-  AI), new external API integration row, new options rows, file tree updates.
-- CONVENTIONS.md: new "How To: Add a New Image Provider" section.

-## How To: Add an OpenRouter model picker field (v0.11.0+)
-
-Use the `model_select` field type to let admins choose OpenRouter models with a searchable dropdown, capability filtering, and estimated cost preview based on usage history.
-
-### 1. Declare the field in `class-settings-fields.php`
-
-```php
-[
-    'id'          => 'my_plugin_model',
-    'label'       => __( 'My Model Setting', 'my-plugin' ),

-    'capability'  => 'text→text',  // see ARCHITECTURE.md §18 for all capability strings
-    'description' => __( 'Choose a model...', 'my-plugin' ),
-    'badge'       => __( 'Quality', 'my-plugin' ),
-],
-```
-
-### 2. Map the setting to pipeline stages (for cost preview)
-
-If you want cost preview to work, add your setting ID and stage list to the `get_stages_for_setting()` method in `includes/admin/fields/class-open-router-model-field.php`:
-
-```php
-private static function get_stages_for_setting( string $field_id ): array {
-    $map = [
-        'prautoblogger_analysis_model'     => [ 'analysis' ],
-        'prautoblogger_writing_model'      => [ 'outline', 'draft', 'polish' ],
-        'prautoblogger_editor_model'       => [ 'review' ],

-    ];
-    return $map[ $field_id ] ?? [];
-}
-```
-
-The cost preview queries `get_avg_tokens_for_stages()` on the Cost Tracker to show estimated cost per generation based on the last 30 days of usage.
-
-### 3. That's it
-
-The field renderer, AJAX refresh, model picker JS, and capability filtering are already wired. The admin will see a "Refresh Model List" button on the AI Models tab (or whichever tab contains the picker field).
-
-### Capability strings (locked in v0.11.0)
-
-- `text→text` — text input, text output (default for analysis/writing/editor)
-- `text+image→text` — vision models
-- `text+audio→text` — audio input models
-- `text→image` — image generation
-- `text→audio` — voice synthesis
-- `text→video` — video generation
-- `text→embedding` — embeddings
-
-Phase 3 will add provider selection; v0.11.0 is OpenRouter-only.

-## Instrumenting a New LLM Call Site for Opik (v0.12.0+)
-
-When you add a new LLM call (via `$llm->send_chat_completion()`), follow this pattern to capture it in Opik:
-
-### 1. Get the trace context
-
-At the start of your method, grab the per-request singleton:
-
-```php
-$ctx = PRAutoBlogger_Opik_Trace_Context::current();
-```
-
-### 2. Start the span
-
-Before the LLM call, declare a span with metadata:
-
-```php
-$span_id = $ctx->start_span(
-	array(
-		'name'     => 'my_llm_operation',  // kebab-case, descriptive
-		'type'     => 'llm',
-		'model'    => $model,               // e.g. 'gpt-4', from get_option()
-		'provider' => 'openrouter',         // or the actual provider name
-		'input'    => array( 'key' => 'value' ), // optional metadata (no full prompts!)
-	)
-);
-```
-
-### 3. Make the LLM call (unchanged)
-
-```php
-$response = $this->llm->send_chat_completion(
-	array(
-		array( 'role' => 'system', 'content' => $system_prompt ),
-		array( 'role' => 'user', 'content' => $user_prompt ),
-	),
-	$model,
-	array( 'temperature' => 0.7, 'max_tokens' => 4000 )
-);
-```
-
-### 4. End the span with output
-
-After the response, record the outcome:
-
-```php
-$ctx->end_span(
-	$span_id,
-	array(
-		'output' => array( 'response_length' => strlen( $response['content'] ?? '' ) ),
-		'usage'  => array(
-			'prompt_tokens'     => $response['prompt_tokens'],
-			'completion_tokens' => $response['completion_tokens'],
-			'total_tokens'      => $response['prompt_tokens'] + $response['completion_tokens'],
-		),
-	)
-);
-```
-
-### Key rules
-
-- **Never log full prompts.** Use prompt hashes or version tags in `input`. Full text blows payload size and leaks content policy.
-- **Check the feature flag at call-site level?** No. The singleton is always available; Opik_Dispatcher checks the flag before dispatch.
-- **Async dispatch?** Yes. Spans are queued; dispatch happens via `prautoblogger_opik_dispatch` cron (no blocking).
-- **Cost logging?** Unchanged. Your `cost_tracker->log_api_call()` remains separate from Opik; Opik is observability-only.
-
-### Example: minimal instrumentation
-
-```php
-public function my_operation( $input ) {
-	$model = get_option( 'my_model', 'default-model' );
-	$ctx = PRAutoBlogger_Opik_Trace_Context::current();
-
-	$span_id = $ctx->start_span(
-		array(
-			'name'     => 'my_operation',
-			'type'     => 'llm',
-			'model'    => $model,
-			'provider' => 'openrouter',
-		)
-	);
-
-	$response = $this->llm->send_chat_completion( /* ... */ );
-
-	$ctx->end_span(
-		$span_id,
-		array(
-			'usage' => array(
-				'prompt_tokens'     => $response['prompt_tokens'],
-				'completion_tokens' => $response['completion_tokens'],
-				'total_tokens'      => $response['prompt_tokens'] + $response['completion_tokens'],
-			),
-		)
-	);
-
-	return $response['content'];
-}
-```
-
-That's it. No config, no feature-flag checks, no try/catch needed.

-You write subject descriptions for a text-free editorial science illustration about peptides, supplements, or biohacking.
-
-Given an article title and summary, output TWO parts separated by a blank line:
-
-SCENE: A concise 1-2 sentence description of the article's core topic or mechanism, written as the SUBJECT of a single editorial illustration. Name ONE concrete, centered focal subject and the few supporting visual elements around it (e.g. a labelled-free vial and dropper, a stylised receptor on a cell membrane, a molecular chain, a dosing syringe, an organ cross-section). Favor a clear central focal point with margin around it so the image crops well. This is image-gen direction, not prose.
-
-CAPTION: A short, informative caption line (under 15 words) for display as HTML text below the image. Plain and editorial, not a joke.
-
-Rules:
-- The SCENE must depict the article's actual subject/mechanism, not a generic science scene.
-- NO text, words, captions, speech bubbles, labels, or logos described in the SCENE — the illustration is text-free; text is rendered separately.
-- NO people used as a visual gag and NO cartoon/comic framing. A human anatomical element (a cell, an organ, a hand holding a vial) is fine if it is the legitimate subject.
-- Do NOT personify molecules, peptides, hormones, or proteins (no "smiling molecule"); depict them as clean stylised diagrams or structures.
-- Keep the staging simple with one clear focal subject, readable at small sizes.
-- Output ONLY the scene and caption. No preamble, no explanation.
-
-Example output format:
-A single glass peptide vial on a clean surface with a fine dropper above it, a faint stylised molecular chain arcing behind as a backdrop, centered with generous negative space.
-
-A concentrated look at how the compound is prepared before use.

- * predate the meta), and delegates to the existing idempotent
- * `amortize_research_costs()` method. Orphans that still have no
- * siblings after 7 days are deleted outright as sunk cost.
- *
- * Spec-wise the CTO asked for the reap method to live on Post_Assembler;

- * (it grew past 300 with the reap method attached) and colocates the
