10 CHANGES

v1.7.0 2026-03-17 SECURITY CONTENT

Homepage Hero Redesign (Phase 3 NEW

Mobile-First)** — Full rewrite of `templates/index.html` with mobile-first dual-column layout: hero block + intelligence feed (left) + deep dives / radar / OPS Intel / versus sidebar (right). Mobile stacks all sections vertically with deep dives, radar, CVEs, and versus interleaved between intelligence cards.

v1.7.0 2026-03-17 PERFORMANCE ADMIN CONTENT

Hero Selection Logic

`_get_hero_article()` picks the best article: admin-pinned > best deep dive (7d, by qa_score) > best article (48h, by qa_score) > most recent. Result cached 5 minutes.

▼ expand

v1.7.0 2026-03-17 CONTENT

Content Freshness Indicator

`_get_content_freshness()` returns color-coded freshness (green < 6h, amber 6–24h, red > 24h) displayed as animated dot + label on the hero block.

▼ expand

v1.7.0 2026-03-17 ADMIN CONTENT

`pinned_hero` DB Column

Migration added to `tech_news/db.py`. Admin can pin any published article as homepage hero.

▼ expand

v1.7.0 2026-03-17 PERFORMANCE ADMIN CONTENT

Admin Hero Pin API

`POST /api/admin/pin-hero/<id>` pins an article as hero (clears previous pin). `POST /api/admin/pin-hero/clear` removes pin. Both invalidate the hero cache.

▼ expand

v1.7.0 2026-03-17 FEATURE

Versus Request Modal

Bottom-sheet modal on mobile / centered on desktop. Users request a "tool A vs tool B" comparison. Submissions saved to `versus_requests` table in `commands.db`.

▼ expand

v1.7.0 2026-03-17 FEATURE

`/api/versus-request` Route

`POST` accepts `{tool_a, tool_b}`, saves to DB, returns `{status: submitted}`.

▼ expand

v1.7.0 2026-03-17 FEATURE

Jinja2 Filters

`timeago` (ISO datetime → "Xm/Xh/Xd ago") and `parse_tags` (JSON string → list) registered as app template filters.

▼ expand

v1.7.0 2026-03-17 ARIA SECURITY CONTENT

`index()` route

Rewritten to use `published=1` filter, lane `LIKE '%LANE%'` queries (handles pipe-separated lanes), enriched article dicts with `aria_take` (extracted from body_html), `word_count`, `read_time`, `time_ago`, `lane_primary`. Passes `hero`, `intelligence`, `deep_dives`, `radar`, `cves`, `versus`, `counts`, `freshness` to template.

▼ expand

v1.7.0 2026-03-17 FEATURE

CSS

All `hp-*` styles added inline in `index.html`'s `{% block extra_css %}`. Mobile-first base rules, `@media (min-width: 769px)` tablet, `@media (min-width: 1025px)` desktop. Light mode overrides for all new classes.

v1.6.0 2026-03-17 ADMIN CONTENT

Deep Dive Auto-Generation Queue

`deep_dive_queue` table in `pipeline.db` with 25 seeded topics across priority tiers (55–95). Topics sourced from manual admin input, promoted articles, auto-suggest (weekly), or seed list.

▼ expand

v1.6.0 2026-03-17 ARIA CONTENT

ARIA Generation Engine (`pipeline/deep_diver.py`)

Direct Ollama API calls to `aria-32b` for full 800–1200 word markdown articles. Retry logic (3 attempts) if word count < 600. Markdown-to-HTML conversion, tag extraction, and first-paragraph extraction for metadata. Publishes directly to `tech_news` table with `lane='DEEP_DIVES'`, status `approved`.

▼ expand

v1.6.0 2026-03-17 ARIA ADMIN CONTENT

Daily Scheduler

APScheduler cron job at 04:00 UTC picks highest-priority queued item and generates one article per day. Weekly Sunday 06:00 UTC job auto-suggests topics from popular recent articles.

▼ expand

v1.6.0 2026-03-17 ADMIN CONTENT

Deep Dive Queue Admin Panel

Full-width panel on `/admin/pipeline` below the lane cards. Desktop: sortable table with priority badge, topic, source, status, actions. Mobile (≤768px): card-based layout with touch-friendly 36px+ buttons. Force-generate, skip, delete, add-topic modal with priority slider.

▼ expand

v1.6.0 2026-03-17 ARIA ADMIN CONTENT

Scheduler Config Controls

Inline config bar: enable/disable daily auto-gen, run time, per-day limit, min word count. Saved via `POST /api/admin/pipeline/deep-dive-config`.

▼ expand

v1.6.0 2026-03-17 ADMIN CONTENT

▼ expand

v1.5.0

2026-03-01

10 CHANGES

v1.5.0 2026-03-01 ARIA CONTENT

ARIA Site Content Awareness

ARIA now knows what articles are currently published on nsysops.com. Recent Intelligence and Ops Intel articles are injected into the LLM system prompt at request time (via `aria/routes.py` + `_build_site_context()`). ARIA cites articles as clickable markdown links when relevant.

▼ expand

v1.5.0 2026-03-01 ARIA CONTENT

Citations Panel

`#aria-citations` div below ARIA's speech text renders article links extracted from LLM markdown (`[Title](url)`) as styled `// SOURCES:` chips. Speech text displays clean title text (markdown stripped). MutationObserver guard (`_processingCitations` flag) prevents observer loop.

▼ expand

v1.5.0 2026-03-01 ARIA FIX

Conversation Log

Left panel now populates with `// YOU:` / `// ARIA:` entries after each exchange. Root cause of previous failure: `handleManualSend()` in `main.js` calls the internal `askARIA` closure, bypassing the `ARIA.askARIA` proxy. Fixed by adding capture-phase `mousedown` listener on `#aria-send-btn` in `wireInputCapture()`, setting `_lastAriaQuestion` before input is cleared.

▼ expand

v1.5.0 2026-03-01 ARIA FIX CONTENT

Quick Prompts Fixed

Chip `onclick` handlers changed from inline HTML attribute (broke on apostrophes in article titles) to `data-q` attribute + event delegation listener. 4th `source` argument now passed to `ARIA.askARIA`.

▼ expand

v1.5.0 2026-03-01 ARIA

ARIA Page Redesign

Sphere Retheme** — Three.js avatar completely rethemed from bright blue (`#00c8ff`) to site-matching green-cyan (`#00ffb4`). Point light intensity reduced 2.0→0.35, emissive intensity 0.7→0.15, wireframe opacity 0.35→0.08, ring opacities 0.55/0.40/0.30→0.18/0.10/0.06. Core sphere color `#003344`→`#001408`.

▼ expand

v1.5.0 2026-03-01 FEATURE

Mobile Panel Layout

Reordered elements: response text → chips → input+SEND → status bar → stats row (was: response → chips → status → input → stats). Removed old blue color values from mobile input (`color:#e0f4ff` → green theme).

▼ expand

v1.5.0 2026-03-01 ARIA FIX

Mobile Theme Fixes

`#aria-topbar` border changed from blue (`rgba(0,200,255,0.12)`) to green. `#aria-mobile-panel` background overridden from dark-blue to `rgba(0,8,6,0.97)`. Mute button hidden by default, shown on ≤430px only.

▼ expand

v1.5.0 2026-03-01 ARIA

Nav Status Race Condition

`syncNavStatus()` call on page load delayed 2.5s (was immediate). Prevents false "ARIA OFFLINE" flash before first Ollama health poll completes. Initial `#aria-ollama-label` text changed from "AI OFFLINE" to "AI ···" to avoid false offline indication at page load.

▼ expand

v1.5.0 2026-03-01 ARIA

Twitch Badge Label

Changed from `○ OFFLINE` to `○ NO STREAM` to clarify it refers to stream status, not AI status.

▼ expand

v1.5.0 2026-03-01 ARIA FIX

OBS Crosshair Leak

`#obs-crosshair-h` and `#obs-crosshair-v` now directly targeted with `display:none !important; visibility:hidden !important` (belt-and-suspenders alongside parent `#obs-overlay { display:none }`). Restored via class on `body.obs-mode`.

Boot Intro Speech (F1)

ARIA's intro line is now a true 50/50 random selection between "Good to see you. What's on your mind?" and "Awaiting your command." — no more hardcoded "Manual mode active. Ready." that leaked UI state.

▼ expand

v1.4.0 2026-02-27 ARIA FIX

Boot overlay no longer displays "Manual mode active. Twitch offline."

replaced with neutral "Twitch interface standby."
