The Wikimedia feed's thumbnail is 330px, which upscales blurry in our hero. Use
originalimage.source instead — it's reliably sharp. (Can't just request a bigger
thumbnail width: for very large source images Wikimedia only serves pre-generated
bucket sizes and 400s on arbitrary widths — e.g. 500px ok, 800/1024px fail.)
- onthisday._best_image() prefers originalimage, falls back to the thumbnail.
- scripts/otd_image_upsize_backfill.py re-fetches each stored MM-DD and upgrades
image_url in onthisday_pool + daily_onthisday in place (ran on host: pool + 6
daily rows now sharp; today's hero verified 200). Only the /onthisday hero
loads this image (home card is text-only), so larger files are a single-page,
one-time load.
- test_best_image locks the prefer-original/fallback behavior.

- Admin joy item route moved to /api/admin/joys/{kind}/items/{item_id} so the
/add and /repick verbs resolve to their own routes instead of 422-ing as a
non-int item id (the launch blocker). Frontend mutate URL updated to match.
- Re-pick now excludes the currently-shown item: the endpoint reads today's
daily pool_id and passes it as `avoid`, so "Re-pick today" yields a different
item. Added `avoid` to pick_daily/_candidates across wotd/quote/onthisday.
- WOTD sense selection: the LLM now proposes word + intended part of speech, and
_lookup prefers that sense (fixes "serene" returning the archaic noun).
- On This Day tone prompt tightened to favor genuinely uplifting events and
exclude merely procedural/political-administrative ones.
- Caddy @hidden now also noindexes /word /quote /onthisday /admin (+ .html).
- Regression tests: add/repick resolve (401 not 422), add/feature/block/delete,
re-pick excludes current; WOTD pos-preference + proposal parsing units.
