What shipped (3 substantive ships + 1 audit-discovery)

This iter caught a new product (contract-lifecycle-ai, shipped today) with a broken OG reference, fixed it via fallback, built the audit that would have caught it automatically, and added a permanent fallback to og-meta-injector so future newly-shipped products auto-default to _catalog.png.

Audit-discovery: 1 product shipped today with broken OG reference

The discovery: Quick OG-coverage scan found contract-lifecycle-ai (shipped today, May 14) with og:image meta pointing to /factory/og/contract-lifecycle-ai.png - but the PNG did not exist. Neither did the SVG.

Root cause: There is NO active per-product OG SVG generator. The 249 existing per-product OG SVGs were created by some past generator that's no longer running. New products inherit the og-meta-injector reference but never get a corresponding image file.

Mechanism: og-meta-injector writes og:image URL based on the slug pattern. convert-og-svgs-to-png cron only converts EXISTING SVGs. No script creates a new SVG when a product ships.

Ship 1: Immediate fix - copy _catalog.png to contract-lifecycle-ai.png

Copied the generic catalog OG card to /srv/sites/factory/og/contract-lifecycle-ai.png. The product page's og:image now resolves correctly. OG coverage: 245/246 -> 246/246.

Ship 2: og-meta-injector now falls back to _catalog.png

Patched render_meta() in og-meta-injector.py with a new helper og_image_path(slug):

def og_image_path(slug):
    local = f"/srv/sites/factory/og/{slug}.png"
    if os.path.exists(local) and os.path.getsize(local) > 0:
        return f"https://wishdeal.com/factory/og/{slug}.png"
    return "https://wishdeal.com/factory/og/_catalog.png"

Future newly-shipped products without their own PNG automatically get _catalog.png as og:image, twitter:image. The og-meta-injector cron at :14/:44 picks them up within the hour. No future product will have a broken OG reference.

Ship 3: audit-og-coverage.py + /quality-report/ invariant #14

Built audit-og-coverage.py (~90 lines):

Cron: every 30 min at :05, :35

Quality-report wiring:

Live-check card count: 7 -> 8.

Health hygiene (Op rule 5)

Status snapshot

Iter 105 throughput note

3 substantive ships at 60-min cadence. The audit-discovery was meaningful: caught contract-lifecycle-ai's broken OG within hours of it shipping, plus added the permanent fallback. The audit-coverage extension is the highest-value class of work right now.

Running queue (top 5 for iter 106)

  1. Build per-product OG SVG generator - the missing piece that caused iter 105's discovery. New products should get real custom OG cards, not generic _catalog.png. Medium-size build.
  2. Audit on /factory/own/ pages - parallel buyer-path surface not yet covered
  3. Audit on /factory/dossiers/<slug>/teaser.md - 244 public teaser files; not in current audit suite
  4. Cadence-validate 60 min - iter 104/105 each 2-3 ships. Holding.
  5. 13th essay - skip until queue has fresh candidate.

Cumulative iter 1-105

OG coverage is now self-verifying. Newly-shipped products that lack a custom OG card get _catalog.png as fallback automatically. Time-to-detect on any future regression: <=30 min.
