Execution brain timeout bumped from 15 min to 45 min default to avoid
content writing timeouts. BLM stays at 30 min. Both configurable via
CHEDDAH_TIMEOUT_EXECUTION_BRAIN / CHEDDAH_TIMEOUT_BLM env vars or
config.yaml timeouts section.

- Bump Claude Code subprocess timeout from 5 to 15 minutes for longer content tasks
- Fix scheduler result file loop: unlink source if already exists in processed/ dir
- Pass outline save path to execution brain so it writes directly to network share

Phase 1 researches competitors and generates an outline via the execution brain,
saves it to a network/local path, and pauses for human review. Phase 2 picks up
the approved outline and writes full SEO-optimized content. ClickUp integration
maps "On Page Optimization" and "Content Creation" work categories, with
"outline approved" added to poll_statuses for automatic Phase 2 triggering.

Track per-call token usage and estimated costs across all OpenRouter models.
Switch planner agent from Claude Sonnet 4.6 ($3/$15 per M) to Grok 4.1 Fast
($0.20/$0.50 per M) for ~25x cost reduction. Add budget alerts, a dashboard
card, and a check_api_usage tool for visibility into spending.

Core fixes:
- Rewrite router.py format_messages_for_llm() to properly handle tool
call/result message pairs in OpenAI format instead of faking them as
user messages — root cause of most LLM API errors
- Fix scheduler ignoring auto_execute:false flag, which caused all Link
Building tasks to be incorrectly executed and moved to internal review
- Add safety check so Skipped/Error tool results don't get marked as
completed in ClickUp
Additional improvements:
- Add LLM retry logic (2 retries on transient 5xx/timeout/rate-limit)
- Replace raw LLM tracebacks with friendly error messages
- Fix ghost assistant bubble in UI by deferring append to first chunk
- Auto-title conversations from first user message
- Consistent tool_call_id generation (resolve once, reuse everywhere)
- Reduce pipeline status polling from 3s to 10s
- Update CLAUDE.md: remove stale watchdog/autostart docs

Remove unused modules that were never called at startup:
- cheddahbot/skills/__init__.py (dead @skill decorator system)
- cheddahbot/providers/__init__.py (empty placeholder)
- cheddahbot/tools/build_skill.py (depends on dead skills system)
- cheddahbot/tools/build_tool.py (security risk: generates arbitrary Python)
Also fix all pre-existing ruff lint errors across the codebase:
- Fix import sorting, unused imports, line length violations
- Fix type comparisons (use `is` instead of `==`)
- Fix implicit Optional types (dict -> dict | None)
- Fix unused variables, ambiguous variable names
- Apply ruff format for consistent style

Add --allowedTools flag to Claude Code CLI subprocess so tools are
pre-approved and don't prompt for permission in pipe mode.

Implements write_press_releases tool that generates 7 headlines via chat
brain, AI-judges the best 2, writes 2 full press releases via execution
brain, and generates JSON-LD schemas via Sonnet with WebSearch. Saves all
output files to data/generated/press_releases/.
Also adds tools/model pass-through in agent and LLM layers, fixes Windows
command line length limit by piping prompts via stdin, and updates model
references to current versions.

Chat brain uses OpenAI-compatible APIs (OpenRouter/Ollama/LM Studio) for
all UI conversations, giving full control over system prompts so the
Cheddah personality works correctly. Execution brain uses Claude Code CLI
for heartbeat, scheduled tasks, and delegated system-level work.
- Split llm.py: chat() routes through OpenAI-compat only, new execute()
calls Claude CLI with Bash/Read/Edit/Write/Glob/Grep tools
- Add chat_model config field (default: openai/gpt-4o-mini)
- Add delegate_task tool bridging chat brain to execution brain
- Scheduler/heartbeat now use execute_task() for real CLI power
- UI dropdown shows chat-only models with custom value support
- Updated model list to current OpenRouter top models (Feb 2026)

Multi-model AI assistant with Gradio UI, persistent memory, 15+ tools,
and meta-tools for runtime tool creation. Routes Claude models through
Claude Code SDK (Max subscription), cloud models through OpenRouter,
and local models through Ollama/LM Studio.
