-# IGNY8 Development Rules & Standards
-
-**Project:** IGNY8 - AI-Powered Content Platform  
-**Version:** v1.0.0  
-**Last Updated:** December 12, 2025
-
----
-
-## 📋 General Development Principles
-
-### 1. **Always Read Documentation First**
-Before making changes, consult these critical docs:
-- `ARCHITECTURE-KNOWLEDGE-BASE.md` - System architecture and design patterns
-- `CHANGELOG.md` - Recent changes and version history
-- `IGNY8-COMPLETE-FEATURES-GUIDE.md` - Complete feature set and capabilities
-- `docs/00-SYSTEM/` - Core system architecture
-- `docs/10-BACKEND/` - Backend models, services, APIs
-- `docs/20-API/` - API endpoint documentation
-- `docs/30-FRONTEND/` - Frontend components and architecture
-- `docs/40-WORKFLOWS/` - Business workflows and processes
-
-### 2. **Maintain Consistency**
-- **API Design:** Follow existing RESTful patterns in `backend/igny8_core/*/views.py`
-- **Models:** Use existing base classes (`SoftDeletableModel`, `AccountBaseModel`, `SiteSectorBaseModel`)
-- **Services:** Follow service pattern in `backend/igny8_core/business/*/services/`
-- **AI Functions:** Use AI framework in `backend/igny8_core/ai/` (not legacy `utils/ai_processor.py`)
-- **Frontend Components:** Use existing component library in `frontend/src/components/`
-- **Styling:** Use TailwindCSS classes, follow existing design system in `frontend/DESIGN_SYSTEM.md`
-- **State Management:** Use Zustand stores in `frontend/src/store/`
-
-### 3. **Multi-Tenancy Rules**
-- **ALWAYS scope by account:** Every query must filter by account
-- **Site/Sector scoping:** Use `SiteSectorBaseModel` for site-specific data
-- **Permissions:** Check permissions via `IsAuthenticatedAndActive`, `HasTenantAccess`, role-based permissions
-- **No cross-tenant access:** Validate account ownership before operations
-
-### 4. **API Endpoint Rules**
-- **Use existing API structure:** All user-facing endpoints under `/api/v1/<module>/`, admin endpoints under `/api/v1/<module>/admin/`
-- **No parallel API systems:** Register all endpoints in module's `urls.py`, test via Swagger at `/api/docs/` before documenting
-- **Document in Swagger:** Ensure drf-spectacular auto-generates docs; verify endpoint appears at `/api/docs/` and `/api/schema/`

-
----
-
-## 🎯 Specific Development Rules
-
-### Backend Development
-
-#### **Models:**
-```python
-# ALWAYS inherit from proper base classes
-from igny8_core.auth.models import SiteSectorBaseModel
-
-class MyModel(SoftDeletableModel, SiteSectorBaseModel):
-    # Your fields here
-    pass
-```
-
-#### **Services:**
-```python
-# Follow service pattern
-class MyService:
-    def __init__(self):
-        self.credit_service = CreditService()
-        self.limit_service = LimitService()
-    
-    def my_operation(self, account, site, **kwargs):
-        # 1. Validate permissions
-        # 2. Check limits/credits
-        # 3. Perform operation
-        # 4. Track usage
-        # 5. Return result
-        pass
-```
-
-#### **API Views:**
-```python
-# Use proper permission classes
-class MyViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet):
-    permission_classes = [IsAuthenticatedAndActive, HasTenantAccess]
-    
-    def get_queryset(self):
-        # ALWAYS scope by account
-        return MyModel.objects.filter(
-            site__account=self.request.user.account
-        )
-```
-
-#### **Migrations:**
-- Run `python manage.py makemigrations` after model changes
-- Test migrations: `python manage.py migrate --plan`
-- Never edit existing migrations
-- Use data migrations for complex data changes
-
-### Frontend Development
-
-#### **Components:**
-```typescript
-// Use existing component library
-import { Card } from '@/components/ui/card';
-import Button from '@/components/ui/button/Button';
-
-// Follow naming conventions
-export default function MyComponent() {
-  // Component logic
-}
-```
-
-#### **State Management:**
-```typescript
-// Use Zustand stores
-import { useAuthStore } from '@/store/authStore';
-
-const { user, account } = useAuthStore();
-```
-
-#### **API Calls:**
-```typescript
-// Use fetchAPI from services/api.ts
-import { fetchAPI } from '@/services/api';
-
-const data = await fetchAPI('/v1/my-endpoint/');
-```
-
-#### **Styling:**
-```typescript
-// Use TailwindCSS classes
-<div className="p-6 bg-white dark:bg-gray-800 rounded-lg shadow">
-  <h1 className="text-2xl font-bold text-gray-900 dark:text-white">
-    My Heading
-  </h1>
-</div>
-```

-
-## 🚫 Common Pitfalls to Avoid
-
-### **DON'T:**
-- ❌ Skip account scoping in queries
-- ❌ Use legacy AI processor (`utils/ai_processor.py`) - use `ai/` framework
-- ❌ Hardcode values - use settings or constants
-- ❌ Forget error handling
-- ❌ Skip permission checks
-- ❌ Create duplicate components - reuse existing
-- ❌ Use inline styles - use TailwindCSS
-- ❌ Forget to update CHANGELOG
-- ❌ Use workarounds - fix the root cause
-- ❌ Skip migrations after model changes
-
-### **DO:**
-- ✅ Read documentation before coding
-- ✅ Follow existing patterns
-- ✅ Use proper base classes
-- ✅ Check permissions and limits
-- ✅ Handle errors gracefully
-- ✅ Return valid errors, not fallbacks
-- ✅ Update CHANGELOG for every change
-- ✅ Test multi-tenancy isolation
-- ✅ Use TypeScript types
-- ✅ Write clean, documented code
-
----
-
-## 🔍 Code Review Checklist
-
-Before committing code, verify:
-- [ ] Follows existing code patterns
-- [ ] Properly scoped by account/site
-- [ ] Permissions checked
-- [ ] Error handling implemented
-- [ ] No breaking changes
-- [ ] CHANGELOG.md updated
-- [ ] Version number incremented
-- [ ] Documentation updated (if needed)
-- [ ] Tested locally
-- [ ] No console errors or warnings
-- [ ] TypeScript types added/updated
-- [ ] Migrations created (if model changes)

-## 📚 Key Architecture Concepts
-
-### **Credit System:**
-- All AI operations cost credits
-- Check credits before operation: `CreditService.check_credits()`
-- Deduct after operation: `CreditService.deduct_credits()`
-- Track in `CreditUsageLog` table
-
-### **Limit System:**
-- Hard limits: Persistent (sites, users, keywords, clusters)
-- Monthly limits: Reset on billing cycle (ideas, words, images)
-- Track in `PlanLimitUsage` table
-- Check before operation: `LimitService.check_limit()`
-
-### **AI Framework:**
-- Use `ai/engine.py` for AI operations
-- Use `ai/functions/` for specific AI tasks
-- Use `ai/models.py` for tracking
-- Don't use legacy `utils/ai_processor.py`
-
-### **Multi-Tenancy:**
-- Every request has `request.user.account`
-- All models scope by account directly or via site
-- Use `AccountBaseModel` or `SiteSectorBaseModel`
-- Validate ownership before mutations
-
----
-
-## 🎨 Design System
-
-### **Colors:**
-- Primary: Blue (#0693e3)
-- Success: Green (#0bbf87)
-- Error: Red (#ef4444)
-- Warning: Yellow (#f59e0b)
-- Info: Blue (#3b82f6)
-
-### **Typography:**
-- Headings: font-bold
-- Body: font-normal
-- Small text: text-sm
-- Large text: text-lg, text-xl, text-2xl
-
-### **Spacing:**
-- Padding: p-4, p-6 (standard)
-- Margin: mt-4, mb-6 (standard)
-- Gap: gap-4, gap-6 (standard)
-
-### **Components:**
-- Card: `<Card>` with padding and shadow
-- Button: `<Button>` with variants (primary, secondary, danger)
-- Input: `<Input>` with proper validation
-- Badge: `<Badge>` with color variants

+
+---
+
+## 🎨 DESIGN SYSTEM RULES (CRITICAL!)
+
+> **🔒 STYLE LOCKED** - All UI must use the design system. ESLint enforces these rules.
+
+### Color System (Only 6 Base Colors!)
+
+All colors in the system derive from 6 primary hex values in `design-system.css`:
+- `--color-primary` (#0077B6) - Brand Blue
+- `--color-success` (#2CA18E) - Success Green  
+- `--color-warning` (#D9A12C) - Warning Amber
+- `--color-danger` (#A12C40) - Danger Red
+- `--color-purple` (#2C40A1) - Purple accent
+- `--color-gray-base` (#667085) - Neutral gray
+
+### Tailwind Color Classes
+
+**✅ USE ONLY THESE** (Tailwind defaults are DISABLED):
+```
+brand-*    (50-950) - Primary blue scale
+gray-*     (25-950) - Neutral scale
+success-*  (25-950) - Green scale  
+error-*    (25-950) - Red scale
+warning-*  (25-950) - Amber scale
+purple-*   (25-950) - Purple scale
+```
+
+**❌ BANNED** (These will NOT work):
+```
+blue-*, red-*, green-*, emerald-*, amber-*, indigo-*, 
+pink-*, rose-*, sky-*, teal-*, cyan-*, etc.
+```
+
+### Styling Rules
+
+| ✅ DO | ❌ DON'T |
+|-------|---------|
+| `className="bg-brand-500"` | `className="bg-blue-500"` |
+| `className="text-gray-700"` | `className="text-[#333]"` |
+| `<Button variant="primary">` | `<button className="...">` |
+| Import from `../../icons` | Import from `@heroicons/*` |
+| Use CSS variables `var(--color-primary)` | Hardcode hex values |
+
+---
+
+## 🧩 COMPONENT RULES (ESLint Enforced!)
+
+> **Never use raw HTML elements** - Use design system components.
+
+### Required Component Mappings
+
+| HTML Element | Required Component | Import Path |
+|--------------|-------------------|-------------|
+| `<button>` | `Button` or `IconButton` | `components/ui/button/Button` |
+| `<input type="text/email/password">` | `InputField` | `components/form/input/InputField` |
+| `<input type="checkbox">` | `Checkbox` | `components/form/input/Checkbox` |
+| `<input type="radio">` | `Radio` | `components/form/input/Radio` |
+| `<select>` | `Select` or `SelectDropdown` | `components/form/Select` |
+| `<textarea>` | `TextArea` | `components/form/input/TextArea` |
+
+### Component Quick Reference
+
+```tsx
+// Buttons
+<Button variant="primary" tone="brand">Save</Button>
+<Button variant="outline" tone="danger">Delete</Button>
+<IconButton icon={<CloseIcon />} variant="ghost" title="Close" />
+
+// Form Inputs
+<InputField type="text" label="Name" value={val} onChange={setVal} />
+<Select options={opts} onChange={setVal} />
+<Checkbox label="Accept" checked={val} onChange={setVal} />
+<Switch label="Enable" checked={val} onChange={setVal} />
+
+// Display
+<Badge tone="success" variant="soft">Active</Badge>
+<Alert variant="error" title="Error" message="Failed" />
+<Spinner size="md" />
+```
+
+### Icon Rules
+
+**Always import from central location:**
+```tsx
+// ✅ CORRECT
+import { PlusIcon, CloseIcon, CheckCircleIcon } from '../../icons';
+
+// ❌ BANNED - External icon libraries
+import { XIcon } from '@heroicons/react/24/outline';
+import { Trash } from 'lucide-react';
+```
+
+**Icon sizing:**
+- `className="w-4 h-4"` - In buttons, badges
+- `className="w-5 h-5"` - Standalone
+- `className="w-6 h-6"` - Headers, features
+
+---
+
+## 🐳 Docker Commands (IMPORTANT!)
+
+**Container Names:**
+| Container | Name | Purpose |
+|-----------|------|---------|
+| Backend | `igny8_backend` | Django API server |
+| Frontend | `igny8_frontend` | React dev server |
+| Celery Worker | `igny8_celery_worker` | Background tasks |
+| Celery Beat | `igny8_celery_beat` | Scheduled tasks |
+
+**Run commands INSIDE containers:**
+```bash
+# ✅ CORRECT - Run Django management commands
+docker exec -it igny8_backend python manage.py migrate
+docker exec -it igny8_backend python manage.py makemigrations
+docker exec -it igny8_backend python manage.py shell
+
+# ✅ CORRECT - Run npm commands
+docker exec -it igny8_frontend npm install
+docker exec -it igny8_frontend npm run build
+docker exec -it igny8_frontend npm run lint  # Check design system violations
+
+# ✅ CORRECT - View logs
+docker logs igny8_backend -f
+docker logs igny8_celery_worker -f
+
+# ❌ WRONG - Don't use docker-compose for commands
+# docker-compose exec backend python manage.py migrate
+```
+
+---
+
+## 📊 Data Scoping (CRITICAL!)
+
+**Understand which data is scoped where:**
+
+| Scope | Models | Notes |
+|-------|--------|-------|
+| **Global (Platform-wide)** | `GlobalIntegrationSettings`, `GlobalAIPrompt`, `GlobalAuthorProfile`, `GlobalStrategy`, `GlobalModuleSettings`, `Industry`, `SeedKeyword` | Admin-only, shared by ALL accounts |
+| **Account-scoped** | `Account`, `User`, `Plan`, `IntegrationSettings`, `ModuleEnableSettings`, `AISettings`, `AIPrompt`, `AuthorProfile` | Filter by `account` |
+| **Site+Sector-scoped** | `Keywords`, `Clusters`, `ContentIdeas`, `Tasks`, `Content`, `Images` | Filter by `site` AND optionally `sector` |
+
+**Key Rules:**
+- Global settings: NO account filtering (platform-wide, admin managed)
+- Account models: Use `AccountBaseModel`, filter by `request.user.account`
+- Site/Sector models: Use `SiteSectorBaseModel`, filter by `site` and `sector`
+
+---
+
+## ✅ Rules (One Line Each)
+
+### Before Coding
+1. **Read docs first** - Always read the relevant module doc from `docs/10-MODULES/` before changing code
+2. **Read COMPONENT-SYSTEM.md** - **REQUIRED** before any frontend changes
+3. **Check existing patterns** - Search codebase for similar implementations before creating new ones
+4. **Use existing components** - Never duplicate; reuse components from `frontend/src/components/`
+5. **Check data scope** - Know if your model is Global, Account, or Site/Sector scoped (see table above)
+
+### During Coding - Backend
+6. **Use correct base class** - Global: `models.Model`, Account: `AccountBaseModel`, Site: `SiteSectorBaseModel`
+7. **Use AI framework** - Use `backend/igny8_core/ai/` for AI operations, NOT legacy `utils/ai_processor.py`
+8. **Follow service pattern** - Business logic in `backend/igny8_core/business/*/services/`
+9. **Check permissions** - Use `IsAuthenticatedAndActive`, `HasTenantAccess` in views
+
+### During Coding - Frontend (DESIGN SYSTEM)
+10. **Use design system components** - Button, InputField, Select, Badge, Card - never raw HTML
+11. **Use only design system colors** - `brand-*`, `gray-*`, `success-*`, `error-*`, `warning-*`, `purple-*`
+12. **Import icons from central location** - `import { Icon } from '../../icons'` - never external libraries
+13. **No inline styles** - Use Tailwind utilities or CSS variables only
+14. **No hardcoded colors** - No hex values, no `blue-500`, `red-500` (Tailwind defaults disabled)
+15. **Use TypeScript types** - All frontend code must be typed
+
+### After Coding
+16. **Run ESLint** - `docker exec -it igny8_frontend npm run lint` to check design system violations
+17. **Update CHANGELOG.md** - Every commit needs a changelog entry with git reference
+18. **Increment version** - PATCH for fixes, MINOR for features, MAJOR for breaking changes
+19. **Update docs** - If you changed APIs or architecture, update relevant docs in `docs/`
+20. **Run migrations** - After model changes: `docker exec -it igny8_backend python manage.py makemigrations`
+

+
+## 🚫 Don't Do
+
+### General
+- ❌ Skip reading docs before coding
+- ❌ Create duplicate components
+- ❌ Use `docker-compose` for exec commands (use `docker exec`)
+- ❌ Use legacy `utils/ai_processor.py`
+- ❌ Add account filtering to Global models (they're platform-wide!)
+- ❌ Forget site/sector filtering on content models
+- ❌ Forget to update CHANGELOG
+- ❌ Hardcode values (use settings/constants)
+- ❌ Work on Linker/Optimizer (inactive modules - Phase 2)
+- ❌ Use any SiteBuilder code (deprecated - mark for removal)
+
+### Frontend - DESIGN SYSTEM VIOLATIONS

-# GLOBAL SETTINGS - DJANGO ADMIN ACCESS GUIDE
-
-**Last Updated**: December 20, 2025  
-**Status**: ✅ READY TO USE
-
----
-
-## WHERE TO FIND GLOBAL SETTINGS IN DJANGO ADMIN
-
-### 1. Global AI Integration Settings (API Keys)
-
-**URL**: http://your-domain.com/admin/system/globalintegrationsettings/
-
-**What It Controls**:
-- OpenAI API key (for text generation)
-- OpenAI model selection (gpt-4, gpt-3.5-turbo, etc.)
-- OpenAI temperature and max_tokens
-- DALL-E API key (for image generation)
-- DALL-E model, size, quality, style
-- Anthropic API key (for Claude)
-- Anthropic model selection
-- Runware API key (for advanced image generation)
-
-**Important**:
-- This is a SINGLETON - only ONE record exists (ID=1)
-- Changes here affect ALL accounts by default
-- Enterprise accounts can override with their own keys
-
-**How to Configure**:
-1. Login to Django Admin as superuser
-2. Navigate to: System → Global integration settings
-3. Click on the single "Global Integration Settings" entry
-4. Fill in your platform-wide API keys
-5. Set default models and parameters
-6. Save
-
----
-
-### 2. Account Integration Overrides (Per-Account API Keys)
-
-**URL**: http://your-domain.com/admin/system/accountintegrationoverride/
-
-**What It Controls**:
-- Per-account API key overrides for enterprise customers

-2. Verify is_active=True
-3. Check no AccountIntegrationOverride for the account
-4. Restart backend: `docker restart igny8_backend`
-
----
-
-**Problem**: Account override not working
-
-**Solution**:
-1. Check use_own_keys checkbox is enabled
-2. Verify API keys are filled in
-3. Check account selected correctly
-4. Test the API keys manually
-
----
-
-## API ACCESS TO GLOBAL SETTINGS
-
-Code can access global settings:
-
-**Get Global Integration Settings**:
-```python
-from igny8_core.modules.system.global_settings_models import GlobalIntegrationSettings
-settings = GlobalIntegrationSettings.get_instance()
-```
-
-**Get Effective Settings for Account** (checks override, falls back to global):
-```python
-from igny8_core.ai.settings import get_openai_settings
-settings = get_openai_settings(account)
-```
-
-**Get Global Prompt**:
-```python
-from igny8_core.modules.system.global_settings_models import GlobalAIPrompt
-prompt = GlobalAIPrompt.objects.get(prompt_type='clustering', is_active=True)
-```

-# GLOBAL SETTINGS - CORRECT IMPLEMENTATION
-
-**Date**: December 20, 2025  
-**Status**: ✅ FIXED AND WORKING
-
----
-
-## WHAT WAS WRONG
-
-The initial implementation had:
-- AccountIntegrationOverride model allowing users to use their own API keys
-- Enterprise plan that doesn't exist
-- Confusing override logic where accounts could bring their own API keys
-
-## WHAT IS NOW CORRECT
-
-### Architecture
-
-**1. Plans (Only 4 Valid)**:
-- Free Plan - Cannot override anything, uses global defaults
-- Starter Plan - Can override model/settings
-- Growth Plan - Can override model/settings  
-- Scale Plan - Can override model/settings
-
-**2. API Keys** (Platform-Wide):
-- Stored in GlobalIntegrationSettings (singleton, pk=1)
-- ALL accounts use platform API keys
-- NO user can bring their own API keys
-- NO exceptions for any plan level
-
-**3. Model & Parameter Overrides** (Per-Account):
-- Stored in IntegrationSettings model (per-account)
-- Free plan: CANNOT create overrides
-- Starter/Growth/Scale: CAN override model, temperature, max_tokens, image settings
-- NULL values in config = use global default
-- API keys NEVER stored here
-
-**4. Prompts** (Global + Override):
-- GlobalAIPrompt: Platform-wide default prompts
-- AIPrompt: Per-account with default_prompt field
-- When user customizes: prompt_value changes, default_prompt stays same
-- Reset to default: Copies default_prompt back to prompt_value
-- is_customized flag tracks if using custom or default
-
----
-
-## WHERE TO FIND SETTINGS IN DJANGO ADMIN
-
-### 1. Global Integration Settings
-**URL**: /admin/system/globalintegrationsettings/
-
-**What It Stores**:
-- Platform OpenAI API key (used by ALL accounts)
-- Platform DALL-E API key (used by ALL accounts)
-- Platform Anthropic API key (used by ALL accounts)
-- Platform Runware API key (used by ALL accounts)
-- Default model selections for each service
-- Default parameters (temperature, max_tokens, image quality, etc.)
-
-**Important**:
-- Singleton model (only 1 record, pk=1)
-- Changes affect ALL accounts using global defaults
-- Free plan accounts MUST use these (cannot override)
-- Other plans can override model/params but NOT API keys
-
-### 2. Integration Settings (Per-Account Overrides)
-**URL**: /admin/system/integrationsettings/
-
-**What It Stores**:
-- Per-account model selection overrides
-- Per-account parameter overrides (temperature, max_tokens, etc.)
-- Per-account image setting overrides (size, quality, style)
-
-**What It DOES NOT Store**:
-- API keys (those come from global)
-
-**Who Can Create**:
-- Starter/Growth/Scale plans only
-- Free plan users cannot create these
-
-**How It Works**:
-- If account has IntegrationSettings record with config values → uses those
-- If config field is NULL or missing → uses global default
-- API key ALWAYS from GlobalIntegrationSettings
-
-**Example Config**:
-```json
-{
-  "model": "gpt-4",
-  "temperature": 0.8,
-  "max_tokens": 4000
-}
-```
-
-### 3. Global AI Prompts
-**URL**: /admin/system/globalaiprompt/
-
-**What It Stores**:
-- Platform-wide default prompt templates
-- Used for: clustering, ideas, content_generation, etc.
-
-**How Accounts Use Them**:
-- All accounts start with global prompts
-- When user wants to customize, system creates AIPrompt record
-- AIPrompt.default_prompt = GlobalAIPrompt.prompt_value (for reset)
-- AIPrompt.prompt_value = user's custom text
-- AIPrompt.is_customized = True
-
-### 4. AI Prompts (Per-Account)
-**URL**: /admin/system/aiprompt/
-
-**What It Stores**:
-- Account-specific prompt customizations
-- default_prompt field = global default (for reset)
-- prompt_value = current prompt (custom or default)
-- is_customized = True if user modified it
-
-**Actions Available**:
-- "Reset selected prompts to global default" - Copies default_prompt → prompt_value, sets is_customized=False
-
----
-
-## HOW IT WORKS (Complete Flow)
-
-### Text Generation Request
-
-1. Code calls: `get_model_config(function_name='generate_content', account=some_account)`
-
-2. System gets API key from GlobalIntegrationSettings:
-   - `global_settings = GlobalIntegrationSettings.get_instance()`
-   - `api_key = global_settings.openai_api_key`  # ALWAYS from global
-
-3. System checks for account overrides:
-   - Try to find IntegrationSettings for this account + integration_type='openai'
-   - If found: Use config['model'], config['temperature'], config['max_tokens']
-   - If not found OR config field is NULL: Use global defaults
-
-4. Result returned:
-   ```python
-   {
-       'api_key': 'sk-xxx',  # Always from global
-       'model': 'gpt-4',  # From account override OR global
-       'temperature': 0.8,  # From account override OR global  
-       'max_tokens': 4000  # From account override OR global
-   }
-   ```
-
-### Prompt Retrieval
-
-1. Code calls: `AIPrompt.get_effective_prompt(account=some_account, prompt_type='clustering')`
-
-2. System checks for account-specific prompt:
-   - Try to find AIPrompt for this account + prompt_type
-   - If found and is_customized=True: Return prompt_value
-   - If found and is_customized=False: Return default_prompt
-
-3. If no account prompt found:
-   - Get GlobalAIPrompt for prompt_type
-   - Return global prompt_value
-
-### User Customizes a Prompt
-
-1. User edits prompt in frontend
-2. Frontend saves to AIPrompt model:
-   - If AIPrompt doesn't exist: Create new record
-   - Set default_prompt = GlobalAIPrompt.prompt_value (for future reset)
-   - Set prompt_value = user's custom text
-   - Set is_customized = True
-
-### User Resets Prompt
-
-1. User clicks "Reset to Default"
-2. System calls: `AIPrompt.reset_to_default()`
-3. Method does:
-   - prompt_value = default_prompt
-   - is_customized = False
-   - save()
-
----
-
-## MIGRATION APPLIED
-
-**File**: 0004_fix_global_settings_remove_override.py
-
-**Changes**:
-- Added default_prompt field to AIPrompt model
-- Updated help text on IntegrationSettings.config field
-- Updated integration_type choices (removed GSC, image_generation)
-- Updated GlobalIntegrationSettings help text
-- Removed AccountIntegrationOverride model
-
----
-
-## ADMIN INTERFACE CHANGES
-
-**GlobalIntegrationSettings Admin**:
-- Shows all platform API keys and default settings
-- One record only (singleton)
-- Help text clarifies these are used by ALL accounts
-
-**IntegrationSettings Admin**:
-- Help text emphasizes: "NEVER store API keys here"
-- Config field description explains it's for overrides only
-- Removed bulk_test_connection action
-- Free plan check should be added to prevent creation
-
-**AIPrompt Admin**:
-- Added default_prompt to readonly_fields
-- Added "Reset selected prompts to global default" bulk action
-- Fieldsets show both prompt_value and default_prompt
-
-**Removed**:
-- AccountIntegrationOverride model
-- AccountIntegrationOverrideAdmin class
-- All references to per-account API keys
-
----
-
-## SIDEBAR NAVIGATION (TODO)
-
-Need to add links in app sidebar to access global settings:
-
-**For Superusers/Admin**:
-- Global Settings
-  - Platform API Keys (/admin/system/globalintegrationsettings/)
-  - Global Prompts (/admin/system/globalaiprompt/)
-  - Global Author Profiles (/admin/system/globalauthorprofile/)
-  - Global Strategies (/admin/system/globalstrategy/)
-
-**For All Users** (Starter+ plans):
-- Account Settings
-  - AI Model Selection (/settings/ai) - Configure IntegrationSettings
-  - Custom Prompts (/settings/prompts) - Manage AIPrompts
-  - Author Profiles (/settings/profiles) - Manage AuthorProfiles
-  - Content Strategies (/settings/strategies) - Manage Strategies
-
----
-
-## VERIFICATION
-
-Run these commands to verify:
-
-```bash
-# Check migration applied
-docker exec igny8_backend python manage.py showmigrations system
-
-# Verify global settings exist
-docker exec igny8_backend python manage.py shell -c "
-from igny8_core.modules.system.global_settings_models import GlobalIntegrationSettings
-obj = GlobalIntegrationSettings.get_instance()
-print(f'OpenAI Model: {obj.openai_model}')
-print(f'Max Tokens: {obj.openai_max_tokens}')
-"
-
-# Check AIPrompt has default_prompt field

-```
-
----
-
-## QUICK START
-
-1. **Configure Platform API Keys**:
-   - Login to Django Admin
-   - Go to: System → Global integration settings
-   - Fill in OpenAI, DALL-E API keys
-   - Set default models
-   - Save
-
-2. **Create Global Prompts**:

-### Phase 3: Django Admin Interface ✅
-**File:** `backend/igny8_core/modules/billing/admin.py`
-
-**Features:**
-- List display with colored badges (model type, provider)
-- Formatted pricing display based on type
-- Active/inactive and default status icons
-- Filters: model_type, provider, is_active, capabilities
-- Search: model_name, display_name, description
-- Collapsible fieldsets organized by category
-
-**Actions:**
-- Bulk activate/deactivate models
-- Set model as default (enforces single default per type)
-- Export pricing table
-
-**Access:** Django Admin → Billing → AI Model Configurations
-
----
-
-### Phase 4 & 5: AI Core Integration ✅
-**File:** `backend/igny8_core/ai/ai_core.py`
-
-**Updated Functions:**
-1. `run_ai_request()` (line ~294) - Text model cost calculation
-2. `generate_image()` (line ~581) - Image model cost calculation
-3. `calculate_cost()` (line ~822) - Helper method
-
-**Implementation:**
-- Lazy imports to avoid circular dependencies
-- Database-first with fallback to constants
-- Try/except wrapper for safety
-- Logging shows source (database vs constants)
-
-**Example:**
-```python
-# Before (hardcoded)
-rates = MODEL_RATES.get(model, {'input': 2.00, 'output': 8.00})
-cost = (input_tokens * rates['input'] + output_tokens * rates['output']) / 1_000_000
-
-# After (database)
-model_config = AIModelConfig.objects.get(model_name=model, model_type='text', is_active=True)
-cost = model_config.get_cost_for_tokens(input_tokens, output_tokens)
-```
-
----
-
-### Phase 6: Validators Update ✅
-**File:** `backend/igny8_core/ai/validators.py`
-
-**Updated Functions:**
-1. `validate_model(model, model_type)` - Checks database for active models
-2. `validate_image_size(size, model)` - Uses model's `valid_sizes` from database
-
-**Benefits:**
-- Dynamic model availability
-- Better error messages with available model lists
-- Automatic sync with database state
-
----
-
-### Phase 7: REST API Endpoint ✅
-**Endpoint:** `GET /api/v1/billing/ai/models/`
-
-**Files Created/Updated:**
-- Serializer: `backend/igny8_core/modules/billing/serializers.py`

-2. Click on any model to edit pricing
-3. Use filters to view specific model types
-4. Use bulk actions to activate/deactivate
-
-### API Usage (Frontend)
-```javascript
-// Fetch all text models
-const response = await fetch('/api/v1/billing/ai/models/?type=text');
-const { data: models } = await response.json();
-
-// Display in dropdown

-```python
-from igny8_core.business.billing.models import AIModelConfig
-
-# Get model
-model = AIModelConfig.objects.get(model_name='gpt-4o-mini')
-
-# Calculate cost
-cost = model.get_cost_for_tokens(1000, 500)  # $0.000450
-
-# Validate size (images)
-dalle = AIModelConfig.objects.get(model_name='dall-e-3')

-## Implementation Details
-
-### Database Schema
-- **Model:** `AIModelConfig`
-- **Fields:** 15 (model_name, display_name, model_type, provider, costs, features, etc.)
-- **Migration:** `0020_create_ai_model_config.py`
-- **Seeded Models:** 9 (7 active, 2 inactive)
-
-### Methods Implemented
-```python
-# Text model cost calculation
-AIModelConfig.get_cost_for_tokens(input_tokens, output_tokens) -> Decimal
-
-# Image model cost calculation
-AIModelConfig.get_cost_for_images(num_images) -> Decimal
-
-# Size validation
-AIModelConfig.validate_size(size) -> bool
-
-# Unified cost calculation (in ai_core.py)
-AICore.calculate_cost(model, input_tokens, output_tokens, model_type) -> float
-```
-
-### Files Modified (7)
-1. `billing/models.py` - AIModelConfig class (240 lines)
-2. `billing/admin.py` - Admin interface with filters
-3. `ai/ai_core.py` - 3 functions updated with database queries
-4. `ai/validators.py` - 2 functions updated with database queries
-5. `modules/billing/serializers.py` - AIModelConfigSerializer
-6. `modules/billing/views.py` - AIModelConfigViewSet
-7. `business/billing/urls.py` - API routing
-
-### REST API Endpoints
-- `GET /api/v1/billing/ai/models/` - List all active models
-- `GET /api/v1/billing/ai/models/?model_type=text` - Filter by type
-- `GET /api/v1/billing/ai/models/?provider=openai` - Filter by provider
-- `GET /api/v1/billing/ai/models/<id>/` - Get specific model
-
----
-
-## Cost Examples
-
-### Text Generation (gpt-4o-mini)
-- **OpenAI Cost:** 1000 input + 500 output tokens = $0.000450
-- **Credits Charged:** 10 credits ($0.10)
-- **Profit Margin:** 99.6%
-
-### Image Generation (dall-e-3)
-- **OpenAI Cost:** 1 image (1024x1024) = $0.0400
-- **Credits:** Charged by customer configuration
-
----
-
-## Fallback Safety Mechanism
-
-All functions include try/except blocks that:
-1. **Try:** Query database for model config
-2. **Except:** Fall back to constants in `ai/constants.py`
-3. **Result:** System never fails, always returns a valid cost
-
-**Example:**
-```python
-try:
-    model_config = AIModelConfig.objects.get(model_name=model, is_active=True)
-    return model_config.get_cost_for_tokens(input, output)
-except:
-    # Fallback to constants
-    rates = MODEL_RATES.get(model, {'input': 2.00, 'output': 8.00})
-    return calculate_with_rates(rates)
-```

-## Action Plan: Production Data Preparation
-
-### Phase 1: Preserve System Data ⚠️
-**Models to Keep & Seed Properly:**
-
-1. **Global Taxonomy**
-   - Industry (pre-populate 10-15 major industries)
-   - IndustrySector (pre-populate 100+ sub-sectors)
-   - SeedKeyword (system-level seed keywords per industry)
-
-2. **Pricing & Plans**
-   - Plan (Free, Starter, Pro, Enterprise tiers)
-   - CreditPackage (credit bundles for purchase)
-   - PaymentMethodConfig (Stripe, PayPal configs)
-   - CreditCostConfig (cost per operation type)
-
-3. **Publishing Channels**
-   - PublishingChannel (WordPress, Ghost, Medium, etc.)
-
-4. **AI & Content Templates**
-   - AIPrompt (100+ production-ready prompts)
-   - Strategy (content strategy templates)
-   - AuthorProfile (author persona library)
-   - ContentTemplate (article templates)
-   - ContentTypeConfig (blog post, landing page, etc.)
-
-5. **System Configuration**
-   - SystemSetting (global platform settings)
-   - TaxonomyConfig (taxonomy rules)
-   - NotificationConfig (email/webhook templates)
-
-6. **Access Control**
-   - Group (Admin, Editor, Viewer, Owner roles)
-   - Permission (Django-managed)
-   - ContentType (Django-managed)
-
-### Phase 2: Clean User/Test Data ✅
-**Models to Truncate/Delete:**
-
-1. **Account Data**: Account, User, Site, Sector, SiteUserAccess
-2. **Billing Transactions**: Subscription, Invoice, Payment, AccountPaymentMethod, CreditTransaction
-3. **Content Data**: Keywords, Clusters, ContentIdeas, Tasks, Content, Images
-4. **Taxonomy Relations**: ContentTaxonomy, ContentTaxonomyRelation, ContentClusterMap, ContentAttribute
-5. **Integration Data**: SiteIntegration, SyncEvent, PublishingRecord, DeploymentRecord
-6. **User Configs**: APIKey, WebhookConfig, AutomationConfig, AutomationRun
-7. **Logs**: AITaskLog, AuditLog, LogEntry, TaskResult, GroupResult, CreditUsageLog, PlanLimitUsage, PasswordResetToken, Session
-
-### Phase 3: Review Mixed Data ⚠️
-**Models Requiring Manual Review:**
-
-1. **SeedKeyword**: Separate system seeds from test data
-2. **IntegrationSettings**: Keep system-level API configs, remove test account keys
-
----
-
-## Database Cleanup Commands (Use with Caution)
-
-### Safe Cleanup (Logs & Sessions)
-```python
-# Remove old logs (>90 days)
-AITaskLog.objects.filter(created_at__lt=timezone.now() - timedelta(days=90)).delete()
-CreditUsageLog.objects.filter(created_at__lt=timezone.now() - timedelta(days=90)).delete()
-LogEntry.objects.filter(action_time__lt=timezone.now() - timedelta(days=90)).delete()
-
-# Remove old sessions and tokens
-Session.objects.filter(expire_date__lt=timezone.now()).delete()
-PasswordResetToken.objects.filter(expires_at__lt=timezone.now()).delete()
-
-# Remove old task results
-TaskResult.objects.filter(date_done__lt=timezone.now() - timedelta(days=30)).delete()
-```
-
-### Full Test Data Cleanup (Development/Staging Only)
-```python
-# WARNING: Only run in development/staging environments
-# This will delete ALL user-generated data
-
-# User data
-Account.objects.all().delete()  # Cascades to most user data
-User.objects.filter(is_superuser=False).delete()
-
-# Remaining user data
-SiteIntegration.objects.all().delete()
-AutomationConfig.objects.all().delete()
-APIKey.objects.all().delete()
-WebhookConfig.objects.all().delete()
-
-# Logs and history
-AITaskLog.objects.all().delete()
-AuditLog.objects.all().delete()
-LogEntry.objects.all().delete()
-TaskResult.objects.all().delete()
-GroupResult.objects.all().delete()
-```
-
-### Verify System Data Exists
-```python
-# Check system data is properly seeded
-print(f"Industries: {Industry.objects.count()}")
-print(f"Plans: {Plan.objects.count()}")
-print(f"AI Prompts: {AIPrompt.objects.count()}")
-print(f"Strategies: {Strategy.objects.count()}")
-print(f"Content Templates: {ContentTemplate.objects.count()}")
-print(f"Publishing Channels: {PublishingChannel.objects.count()}")
-print(f"Groups: {Group.objects.count()}")
-```
-
----
-
-## Recommendations
-
-### Before Production Launch:
-
-1. **Export System Data**: Export all SYSTEM DATA models to fixtures for reproducibility
-   ```bash
-   python manage.py dumpdata igny8_core_auth.Industry > fixtures/industries.json
-   python manage.py dumpdata igny8_core_auth.Plan > fixtures/plans.json
-   python manage.py dumpdata system.AIPrompt > fixtures/prompts.json
-   # ... repeat for all system models
-   ```
-
-2. **Create Seed Script**: Create management command to populate fresh database with system data
-   ```bash
-   python manage.py seed_system_data
-   ```
-
-3. **Database Snapshot**: Take snapshot after system data is seeded, before any user data
-
-4. **Separate Databases**: Consider separate staging database with full test data vs production with clean start
-
-5. **Data Migration Plan**: 
-   - If migrating from old system: Only migrate Account, User, Content, and critical user data
-   - Leave test data behind in old system
-
----
-
-## Next Steps
-
-1. ✅ Review this document and confirm data segregation logic
-2. ⚠️ Create fixtures/seeds for all 18 SYSTEM DATA models
-3. ⚠️ Review 2 MIXED DATA models (SeedKeyword, IntegrationSettings)
-4. ✅ Create cleanup script for 37 USER DATA models
-5. ✅ Test cleanup script in staging environment
-6. ✅ Execute cleanup before production launch

-# Integration Settings Workflow & Data Flow
-
-## Part 1: How Global Settings Load on Frontend
-
-### Admin Configures Global Settings
-**URL**: `https://api.igny8.com/admin/system/globalintegrationsettings/1/change/`
-
-**What's Stored**:
-- Platform-wide API keys (OpenAI, DALL-E, Runware)
-- Default model selections (gpt-4o-mini, dall-e-3, runware:97@1)
-- Default parameters (temperature: 0.7, max_tokens: 8192)
-- Default image settings (size, quality, style)
-
-**Who Can Access**: Only platform administrators
-
-### Normal User Opens Integration Page
-**URL**: `https://app.igny8.com/settings/integration`
-
-**What Happens**:
-
-1. **Frontend Request**:
-   - User browser requests: `GET /api/v1/system/settings/integrations/openai/`
-   - User browser requests: `GET /api/v1/system/settings/integrations/image_generation/`
-
-2. **Backend Processing** (`integration_views.py` - `get_settings()` method):
-   - Checks if user's account has custom overrides in `IntegrationSettings` table
-   - Gets global defaults from `GlobalIntegrationSettings` singleton
-   - Merges data with this priority:
-     - If account has overrides → use account settings
-     - If no overrides → use global defaults
-   - **NEVER returns API keys** (security)
-
-3. **Response to Frontend**:
-   ```
-   {
-     "id": "openai",
-     "enabled": true,
-     "model": "gpt-4o-mini",           // From global OR account override
-     "temperature": 0.7,                // From global OR account override
-     "max_tokens": 8192,                // From global OR account override
-     "using_global": true               // Flag: true if using defaults
-   }
-   ```
-
-4. **Frontend Display**:
-   - Shows current model selection
-   - Shows "Using platform defaults" badge if `using_global: true`
-   - Shows "Custom settings" badge if `using_global: false`
-   - User can change model, temperature, etc.
-   - **API key status is NOT shown** (user cannot see/change platform keys)
-
----
-
-## Part 2: How User Changes Are Saved
-
-### User Changes Settings on Frontend
-
-1. **User Actions**:
-   - Opens settings modal
-   - Changes model from `gpt-4o-mini` to `gpt-4o`
-   - Changes temperature from `0.7` to `0.8`
-   - Clicks "Save"
-
-2. **Frontend Request**:
-   - Sends: `PUT /api/v1/system/settings/integrations/openai/`
-   - Body: `{"model": "gpt-4o", "temperature": 0.8, "max_tokens": 8192}`
-
-3. **Backend Processing** (`integration_views.py` - `save_settings()` method):
-   - **CRITICAL SECURITY**: Strips ANY API keys from request (apiKey, api_key, openai_api_key, etc.)
-   - Validates account exists
-   - Builds clean config with ONLY allowed overrides:
-     - For OpenAI: model, temperature, max_tokens
-     - For Image: service, model, image_quality, image_style, sizes
-   - Saves to `IntegrationSettings` table:
-     ```
-     account_id: 123
-     integration_type: "openai"
-     config: {"model": "gpt-4o", "temperature": 0.8, "max_tokens": 8192}
-     is_active: true
-     ```
-
-4. **Database Structure**:
-   - **GlobalIntegrationSettings** (1 row, pk=1):
-     - Contains: API keys + default settings
-     - Used by: ALL accounts for API keys
-   
-   - **IntegrationSettings** (multiple rows):
-     - Row per account per integration type
-     - Contains: ONLY overrides (no API keys)
-     - Example:
-       ```
-       id  | account_id | integration_type | config
-       100 | 123        | openai          | {"model": "gpt-4o", "temperature": 0.8}
-       101 | 456        | openai          | {"model": "gpt-4.1", "max_tokens": 4000}
-       102 | 123        | image_generation| {"service": "runware", "model": "runware:100@1"}
-       ```
-
-5. **Next Request from User**:
-   - Frontend requests: `GET /api/v1/system/settings/integrations/openai/`
-   - Backend finds IntegrationSettings row for account 123
-   - Returns: `{"model": "gpt-4o", "temperature": 0.8, "using_global": false}`
-   - User sees their custom settings

-## Important Security Rules
-
-1. **API Keys Flow**:
-   - Admin sets → GlobalIntegrationSettings
-   - Backend uses → For ALL accounts
-   - Frontend NEVER sees → Security
-   - Users NEVER save → Stripped by backend
-
-2. **Settings Flow**:
-   - Admin sets defaults → GlobalIntegrationSettings
-   - Users customize → IntegrationSettings (overrides only)
-   - Backend merges → Global defaults + account overrides
-   - Frontend displays → Merged result (no keys)
-
-3. **Free Plan Restriction**:
-   - Cannot create IntegrationSettings rows
-   - Must use global defaults only
-   - Enforced at frontend (UI disabled)
-   - TODO: Add backend validation
-
----
-
-## Example Scenarios
-
-### Scenario 1: New User First Visit
-- User has NO IntegrationSettings row
-- Backend returns global defaults
-- `using_global: true`
-- User sees platform defaults
-- API operations use platform API key
-
-### Scenario 2: User Customizes Model
-- User changes model to "gpt-4o"
-- Frontend sends: `{"model": "gpt-4o"}`
-- Backend creates IntegrationSettings row
-- Next visit: `using_global: false`
-- API operations use platform API key + user's model choice
-
-### Scenario 3: User Resets to Default
-- Frontend sends: `{"model": "gpt-4o-mini"}` (same as global)
-- Backend still saves override row
-- Alternative: Delete row to truly use global
-- TODO: Add "Reset to defaults" button
-
-### Scenario 4: Admin Changes Global Default
-- Admin changes global model to "gpt-4.1"
-- Users WITH overrides: See their custom model
-- Users WITHOUT overrides: See new "gpt-4.1" default
-- All users: Use platform API key
