- New frontend/ SvelteKit static SPA (Svelte 5), served by FastAPI from
frontend/build (falls back to the legacy page if unbuilt).
- Calm design system: cream/sage palette, serif headlines, generous space,
no urgency colors, gentle motion (respects prefers-reduced-motion).
- Home screen: mood-mode nav (Today/Wonder/People Helping/Solutions/Light
Only/Grounded), the daily brief as a hero + remaining four, browsable mood
lanes, an explicit calm end-state, inline Not today / Less like this / Hide
affordances, and device-local Calm Filters mirroring goodnews/filters.py.
- Backend: moods.py + GET /api/moods (single source of truth for the modes);
FilterPrefs gains max_cortisol/max_ragebait ceilings (for Light Only).
- Push categorical filters (include/mute topics+flavors, ceilings) into SQL in
queries.feed so low-ranked-but-matching items (e.g. discovery for Wonder)
are not truncated by ranking; only avoid-terms stay a Python pass.
- PWA manifest + icon (installable; offline deferred per plan).
- Multi-stage Dockerfile builds the site then serves it from the API.
- Tests: queries.feed categorical filters (63 total). README updated.

- Add source health columns (last_success_at, last_error_at, last_error,
consecutive_failures, review_flag, review_reason) via SCHEMA + migration.
- poll_source maintains them: success resets the failure streak and records the
success time; failure increments it and stores the latest error.
- review_sources() flags active sources that are stale, repeatedly failing,
low-acceptance, duplicate-heavy, or doom-skewed (high cortisol/ragebait) over
a recent window. It is purely advisory: it sets review_flag/review_reason and
never changes the active column (human stays in the loop), clearing the flag
when a source recovers.
- CLI review-sources; cycle runs it as a final step (--no-review to skip);
source-report shows a review line for flagged feeds.
- Tests: healthy/failing/stale/low-acceptance/recovery and never-deactivates.

- New source_candidates staging table (status suggested/quarantined/rejected/
promoted, preview_json snapshot) so untrusted/suggested feeds stay out of the
real ingestion path until reviewed.
- sources.py: save_candidate (re-preview never revives a curator's rejection),
list_candidates, reject_candidate, promote_candidate (copies into sources,
inactive by default — active on approval; never automatic).
- CLI: suggest-source / list-candidates / promote-candidate / reject-candidate.
- API: read-only GET /api/candidates (writes stay CLI-only — no unauthenticated
public write surface yet).
- Fix deprecated ElementTree truth-value test in _parse_rss.
- Tests: candidate lifecycle (save/list/promote/reject, status preservation,
name derivation) — 51 total.

- feeds.preview_feed(): fetch + score a sample WITHOUT persisting; returns
freshness, acceptance rate, cortisol/ragebait/PR averages, and example
accepted/rejected items. With an LLM client it also returns topic/flavor mix
and the model's (accurate) acceptance view.
- CLI 'preview-source URL [--sample] [--classify]'.
- API 'GET /api/source-preview?url=&sample=&classify=' with an http(s)-only
guard (SSRF note left for go-public hardening).
- Site 'Suggest a source' panel with Quick check (heuristic, instant) and Deep
check (model, accurate), rendered DOM-safely.
- Tests: network-free preview_feed tests via monkeypatched fetch (45 total).
- README documents the command, endpoint, and updated roadmap.

- Add API test layer (TestClient): bad prefs -> 200, mute affects feed,
avoid-term filters, brief filters down, counts match filtered feed.
- Render article cards via the DOM API (textContent) instead of HTML string
interpolation, and only allow http(s) hrefs — defense-in-depth XSS guard for
when the feed faces untrusted sources publicly.
- Refresh the stale README Next Steps to reflect what's done vs ahead.

- API endpoints (feed, brief, category-counts) accept a 'prefs' JSON query
param, parsed tolerantly into FilterPrefs (bad blobs never break the feed).
- Feed over-fetches then applies word-boundary filters in Python and slices to
the page; brief is filtered down (no refill); counts are computed over the
same filtered set so browse numbers match the feed exactly.
- Pause.active() coerces naive datetimes to UTC; FilterPrefs.from_dict skips
malformed pauses and non-string list entries.
- Static site adds the humane ladder (Not today / Less like this / Always hide)
plus a Calm filters panel managing pauses, mutes, and avoid-terms in
localStorage. Nothing leaves the device.
- Tests now 38 (added forgiving-parse and naive-now cases). README documents it.

- Add pytest suite (34 tests) covering scoring thresholds, dedup clustering +
representative selection + time window, brief source/category diversity,
avoid-term phrase matching, and text canonicalization/truncation.
- Rewrite _select_diverse with an explicit, tested contract (best-first, one
per source, backfill, then inject a second category by evicting the
lowest-ranked pick).
- classify_articles now returns attempted/succeeded/skipped (ClassifyReport) so
silent model failures are visible in both the cycle and classify output.
- Fix clean_text truncation to stay within max_len (ellipsis no longer
overshoots).
- New filters.py: canonical FilterPrefs shape (include/mute topics+flavors,
avoid_terms, pauses) and pure word/phrase-boundary matching engine seeding
Calm Filters. Not yet wired into the API.

- cycle now prints per-article classify progress (flushed) so the long step is
clearly alive rather than appearing hung.
- An exclusive flock guards the cycle so a manual run and the systemd timer (or
two timer ticks) cannot overlap and contend on the database and model.

- LocalModelClient.embed() calls the OpenAI-compatible /embeddings endpoint
(local nomic model); base_url shared with chat, model via GOODNEWS_EMBED_MODEL.
- New article_embeddings table and articles.duplicate_of column (+ migration).
- dedup module: embeds missing articles, clusters near-identical stories within
a date window by cosine similarity (pure-stdlib, vectors normalised once), and
marks all but the highest-ranked member of each cluster as a duplicate.
- 'dedup' CLI command; cycle now runs poll -> classify -> dedup -> brief.
- Feed and brief queries hide duplicates, so a story carried by multiple
outlets shows once.

- Briefs now fill from a rolling window (prefer today, backfill up to
window_days) and exclude anything featured in the last 7 days of briefs, so
slow days still produce five items without stories lingering day to day.
- New 'check-feeds' command fetches and parses every feed to catch dead ones.
- Added 16 validated sources (science, environment, animals, culture),
expanding coverage from 12 to 28 feeds to reduce staleness.

- deploy/goodnews.service: oneshot unit running 'goodnews cycle' with a
generous TimeoutStartSec so long classify runs are not killed.
- deploy/goodnews.timer: every 15 min, Persistent=true to catch missed runs.
- deploy/goodnews.env.example: LLM endpoint + DB path for the scheduled run.
- README: scheduling/install docs.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- poll_due_sources(): polls only sources whose last successful poll is older
than their poll_interval_minutes (or never polled), finally giving that
config field meaning.
- classify gains only_unclassified to spend the LLM solely on new (heuristic)
articles, so a frequent scheduled run stays cheap.
- 'cycle' command runs poll-due -> classify-new -> rebuild-today's-brief, with
each step non-fatal so a down model endpoint or empty day never aborts it.

- queries.py: shared read-only query helpers (feed, brief, category counts)
returning plain dicts, used by the API and available to the CLI.
- api.py: FastAPI service with Pydantic response models (the companion-app
contract), CORS, and endpoints for categories, feed, brief, and health;
mounts a static site at /.
- static/index.html: minimal dependency-free site rendering the daily five
and topic/flavor category browsing.
- 'goodnews serve' command launches uvicorn (lazy import; core CLI stays
pure-stdlib). Web deps live behind the optional [web] extra.
- Dockerfile + .dockerignore + build-system metadata so the service installs
and deploys cleanly, with the DB mounted as a shared volume.
- README: web/API and deployment docs.

- New taxonomy module: single source of truth for 6 topics x 5 flavors,
shared by the LLM response schema (enum-constrained) and validation.
- Classifier now assigns one topic + one flavor per article; json_schema
enums force valid values, with coercion as a safety net.
- article_scores gains topic/flavor columns via an idempotent migration.
- New 'list-category' command to browse by topic and/or flavor, ranked by
composite score.

- Use json_schema structured output (newer LM Studio rejects json_object),
escalating through json_schema -> json_object -> text and pinning the
first format the server accepts to avoid wasted round-trips.
- Make per-article failures non-fatal and commit incrementally so a single
timeout no longer discards the whole batch.
- Raise default timeout to 180s (configurable via GOODNEWS_LLM_TIMEOUT) for
larger local reasoning models.
