* fix: subscribe to AI generation channel before dispatching the job
AiGenerateDialog posted the generate request and only subscribed to the
broadcast channel once the response came back. Reverb's plain Channel
(vendor/laravel/reverb/.../Channels/Channel.php) delivers broadcasts by
iterating the in-memory connection list at send time only — no history,
no replay. If the queued job started streaming text_delta/stream_end
events before the private-channel subscribe handshake finished, those
events were gone for good and the dialog hung on 'streaming' forever.
Generate the generation_id client-side, await channel subscription
confirmation (Echo's channel.subscribed(), backed by
pusher:subscription_succeeded) before sending the generate request, and
have the backend use the client-supplied id instead of minting its own.
Related to #218.
* fix: handle subscribe failure, dialog-close race, and i18n hardcoded strings
Code review on the previous commit surfaced real gaps:
- useAiStream only handled the subscribe-success path (.subscribed()).
A definitive pusher:subscription_error (expired session, CSRF
mismatch) fell through to the 5s timeout and was treated as success,
reproducing the exact #218 hang via a different trigger. subscribe()
now returns a boolean: true on confirm-or-ambiguous-timeout (proceed
optimistically), false only on an explicit error (don't dispatch work
nothing will ever hear).
- AiGenerateDialog now bails without dispatching if the dialog is
closed while awaiting subscription confirmation (up to 5s), and
unsubscribes on a post-subscribe dispatch failure so stale listeners
can't flip status to 'completed' after an error was already shown.
- Extracted aiGenerationChannel() so the frontend has one place to
update if the channel format changes, and cross-referenced the two
remaining backend copies (PostAiGenerateController, StreamPostContent).
- Replaced the two hardcoded English fallback error strings with i18n
keys (posts.ai.generate.errors.*) across all 16 locales — this app
only ships translated copy.
- Simplified subscribe(): dropped a redundant "already settled" guard
and the clearTimeout bookkeeping — Promise.resolve() already no-ops
after the first call, so there was nothing to guard.
* fix: subscribe before dispatch in AI post creation and image regeneration flows
Extracts subscribePrivateChannel as a shared helper and applies the same
subscribe-before-dispatch fix from the post edit flow (issue #218) to the
other two flows that stream over private channels.
Post creation wizard moves the StreamPostCreation dispatch out of
AiPostWizard.vue and into Loading.vue, so the channel is subscribed before
the job that broadcasts on it is dispatched — previously a full page
navigation happened between dispatch and subscribe with no timeout
fallback, so a lost event hung the page forever.
* refactor: trim explanatory comments added in the subscribe-before-dispatch fix
Rationale lives in the commit history, not scattered inline comments.
* refactor: trim remaining explanatory comments from the subscribe-before-dispatch fix
Same cleanup as the previous commit, applied to the files from the
original post-edit-flow fix.
* fix: dedup post-creation dispatch, surface field-level AI errors, harden edge cases
Uses ShouldBeUnique on StreamPostCreation (scoped per-user) instead of an
ad-hoc cache guard, matching the pattern already used by
PublishToSocialPlatform and VerifyUpcomingPostConnections.
Field-level validation errors (prompt/instruction) now render inline via
InputError, matching how every other form in the app surfaces them, instead
of a generic status banner. Also fixes a 422 response missing the `errors`
key that Inertia's client silently swallows, adds error handling around the
wizard's navigation to the loading page, and extracts the duplicated
error-message parsing into a shared helper.
The image pipeline already threads `applyBrandVisuals` through
`TemplateContext` -> `PostImagePipeline` -> `TemplateImageGenerator`, but it was
hardcoded to `true` at the dispatch site, so generated images always used the
workspace brand palette with no way to opt out.
Expose the choice in the create wizard: a "Brand colors" / "Let AI decide"
toggle (shown only when images are generated). The flag flows
front -> `StartPostCreationRequest` (`apply_brand_visuals`) ->
`PostAiCreateController@start` -> `StreamPostCreation` -> `TemplateContext`,
defaulting to `true` so existing behavior is unchanged when the field is absent.
- Add AiTemplateRegistry (resolves, keys, default)
- Add template/templateContext params to PostContentGenerator; schema() delegates to template when both are set; instructions() uses template.promptView()
- Refactor StreamPostCreation.handle() to resolve template via registry, build TemplateContext, delegate assemble() to template; add createPostFromGenerated()
- Remove handleSingle(), handleCarousel(), resolvedContentType() (no other callers)
- PostAiCreateController passes template param from request (default image_card)
- All existing AI tests green; registry test added
Core changes:
- Replace Unsplash slide pipeline with gpt-image-2 via Laravel AI SDK.
New AiImageClient builds prompts from a Blade template seeded by the
workspace's ImageStyle enum, content language, brand color (mapped to a
human-readable name via HexColorName helper) and brand description.
- Drop Template B from TemplateImageGenerator: every slide now renders as
Template A (full-bleed photo + bottom gradient + white/grey overlay).
Removes renderTemplateB, roundCorners, blendHex, ensureContrast and the
closing-slide pipeline.
- StreamPostCreation creates the Post directly and dispatches
PostCreationReady with post_id; the wizard kills its preview step and
redirects straight to the post editor on completion. Finalize endpoint
removed.
- New Workspace.image_style enum field with an 8-option visual picker
shared by /workspaces/create and /settings/workspace/brand via a single
BrandForm component (autofill is a prop). 8 sample webp thumbs ship
under public/images/branding/image-styles/.
- Media items gain optional source ('ai'|'unsplash'|'giphy') and
source_meta (recipe needed to regenerate AI images later); the gallery
picker tags Unsplash/Giphy attachments.
- Brand-color autofill: new CssColorFrequencyExtractor parses every
hex/rgb/hsl value in the homepage CSS, clusters perceptually similar
shades in CIE LAB (Delta E 76 < 12), filters neutrals and returns the
most frequent cluster. Solves Tailwind/utility-CSS sites where no
semantic --primary variable is exposed.
- Credits: gpt-image-2 metered at 15 credits/image (low quality default).
- Layout: AuthSplitLayout right column is sticky/h-svh so the form
textarea growth no longer stretches the marketing slider.
- i18n cleanup: localized labels follow the no-em-dash convention.
Both PostAiCreateController::createMediaItem and
PostTemplateController::createMediaItem were doing:
$media = new Media([...]);
$media->mediable_type = Workspace::class; // ← FQCN literal
$media->mediable_id = $workspace->id;
$media->save();
Assigning Workspace::class directly bypasses the morphMap configured in
AppServiceProvider, so rows ended up with mediable_type =
'App\\Models\\Workspace' instead of the alias 'workspace'. Other queries
that pivot through the morphMap (e.g. $workspace->media) lose those
records on hosts where the FQCN doesn't match the alias.
Switch both to the relationship form:
$media = $workspace->media()->create([...]);
Laravel fills mediable_type via the morphMap, producing 'workspace'.
This is the same pattern AssetController and the HasMedia trait already
use; these two AI controllers were the only outliers (`grep -rn
'mediable_type =' app/` confirms).
Added tests/Unit/MediaPolymorphTest as a regression — asserts the
created row's mediable_type is the alias and that the relationship
resolves back to the workspace.
