The scheduler command ran every minute and loaded all active automations,
then filtered by trigger_type in PHP because that value lived buried in the
nodes JSON array — effectively a full-table scan plus a JSON decode per row
each minute, discarding every non-schedule automation.
Derive trigger_type into a real, indexed column on save (recomputed in the
existing saving() hook so it can never drift from nodes) and filter on it in
SQL. Applies to both the schedule firer and the post-trigger dispatcher.
- Added support for workflow variables in automations, allowing users to define reusable values.
- Implemented validation for Generate nodes to ensure intended image counts align with selected accounts.
- Updated automation models and requests to handle new variables, including encryption for sensitive data.
- Enhanced UI to display variables and their management within the automation editor.
- Improved error handling for webhook and HTTP nodes to prevent requests to invalid URLs.
- Refactored various components for better context resolution during automation runs.
Generation
- Generate node now produces the full post (text + AI image + carousel)
via a shared PostImagePipeline extracted from StreamPostCreation
- Generate config UI mirrors the /posts/create wizard (carousel slide
count, include-image toggle); drop the decorative format/unsplash keys
Flow correctness
- RSS/HTTP nodes expose named has-items (default) and no-items output
handles, labeled and colored like the Condition node
- AdvanceAutomationRun records a no_matching_edge terminal instead of
completing silently; "0 new items" feedback in the test panel
- Manual/test runs no longer persist the production dedup watermark
Run reliability
- Pause truly halts in-flight runs (production only; manual test runs
always run regardless of automation status)
- ProcessAutomationNode::failed() marks the run failed
- automation:recover-stuck-runs and automation:prune-dry-runs commands
Webhook / HTTP
- Branded User-Agent (config-driven) on outbound webhook + http_request
- Webhook fails on invalid JSON instead of silently sending {}
- HTTP custom headers editor; CodeMirror-based CodeEditor for JSON
Editor UX
- Header Test button only opens the panel; the panel has a Run button
(saves first) and owns the with-real-data toggle
- Clicking a node closes the test panel and opens its config
- Node cards: max-width + truncate so long URLs don't grow the node
- Added new automation-related routes and controllers for managing automations.
- Introduced automation nodes in the UI with distinct styles and interactions.
- Updated sidebar to include navigation for automations.
- Enhanced post creation logic to support automation metadata.
- Refactored content type and platform enums into types for better type safety.
- Added localization for automation-related terms in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
- Improved error handling in various components to accommodate new features.
