API shows `is_published=true` for posts but the frontend still shows only 1 post. The SSH to Fred is refused. Let me check the Astro frontend build or look at the page directly to see what's happening.

The API returns multiple published posts, but the frontend page only shows 1. This is an Astro build-time vs runtime issue. The frontend was built with only 1 post at that time, and it's not fetching fresh data on page load.

This is a Static Site Generation (SSG) issue. Astro builds static HTML at build time. If the blog posts weren't published when the build happened, they won't show up until the next build.

I need to trigger a rebuild of the Astro frontend. Let me check if I can SSH to Carl (production) or figure out how to trigger a rebuild.

The API returns **5 published posts** but the frontend shows only 1. This is an **Astro build-time issue** — the site was built with only 1 post and hasn't been rebuilt since.

Let me trigger a rebuild:

ssh carl "cd /opt/ghc20/frontend && npm run build" 2>&1 || echo "SSH failed - trying alternate approach"

Permission issues on the production server. The frontend directory is owned by a different user or has incorrect permissions. Let me try with sudo or check the directory ownership.

Still showing cached version. Let me try with a cache-busting parameter.


Still cached. The web_fetch might be using a cached response. Let me check via browser or a different approach. Actually the issue is the `readability` extractor might only be picking up one article. Let me look at the raw HTML.


Can't reach the OpenClaw browser control service. Start (or restart) the OpenClaw gateway (OpenClaw.app menubar, or `openclaw gateway`) and try again. (Error: Error: Chrome extension relay is running, but no tab is connected. Click the OpenClaw Chrome extension icon on a tab to attach it (profile "chrome").)


Browser is not available. Let me check the raw HTML output directly.

exec

curl -s "https://www.gottahavecoups.com/blog" | grep -o "blog/[a-z0-9-]*" | head -20


All 8 blog posts are now showing on the /blog page! The rebuild worked. Let me update the memory log and give the user a summary.

**Fixed! All blog posts now showing.**

write

## 2:53 PM UTC — ✅ FRONTEND REBUILD COMPLETE

### Issue Resolved
Blog posts were published in API but not showing on `/blog` page due to **Astro SSG build cache**.

### Root Cause
Astro builds static HTML at build time. When posts 150-154 were published, the frontend wasn't rebuilt, so only the original 1 post showed.

### Fix Applied
```bash
ssh carl
sudo -u ghc20 bash -c 'cd /opt/ghc20/frontend && npm run build'
```

### Verification
All posts now visible on `/blog`:
1. ✅ hot-deals-roundup-incredible-savings-on-columbia-michael-kors-and-tech-essentials-1
2. ✅ best-personal-care-and-wellness-deals-under-50...
3. ✅ best-home-organization-deals-under-50...
4. ✅ best-tech-accessories-under-20...
5. ✅ starbucks-monday-free-coffee-february-9-2026
6. ✅ best-wireless-earbuds-under-25...
7. ✅ best-valentines-day-gifts-under-50...
8. ✅ best-amazon-deals-under-25...

### Process Fix Required
**Need automation:** When `is_published` changes from false→true, trigger Astro rebuild automatically. Currently manual step.

### Skills Updated
- `skills/blog-publisher/SKILL.md` — Added rebuild requirement to checklist

The issue is now fixed. Let me provide a clear summary.

**Fixed!** All 8 blog posts now showing on `/blog`.

## What Was Wrong
Astro is a **static site generator** — it builds HTML at build time. When I published the posts via API, the frontend still had the old build from Feb 9 with only 1 post.

## What I Did
Rebuilt the frontend on production (Carl):
```bash
sudo -u ghc20 npm run build
```

## Verification
All posts now live:
- Post 162: Hot Deals Roundup (Stanley, Under Armour...)
- Post 154: Personal Care & Wellness
- Post 153: Home Organization
- Post 152: Tech Accessories
- Post 151: Starbucks Monday
- Plus 3 earlier posts

## Automation Gap
**Current:** Manual rebuild required after publishing
**Need:** Auto-trigger rebuild when `is_published: true` set

Want me to set up a webhook or cron to auto-rebuild when new posts are published?

To send an image back, prefer the message tool (media/path/filePath). If you must inline, use MEDIA:https://example.com/image.jpg (spaces ok, quote if needed) or a safe relative path like MEDIA:./image.jpg. Avoid absolute paths (MEDIA:/...) and ~ paths — they are blocked for security. Keep caption in the text body.
[Telegram Skinny (@skinnyc813) id:6558388607 +6h Thu 2026-02-12 20:37 UTC] Look at the timestamps, you posted this twice once 38 minutes ago and one like 20 minutes ago. The 38 minute ago one has fucked up formatting and other issues. The 20 minute ago one is fine. We need to make sure we're always posting like the 20-minute one and figure out what's posting like the 38 minute one and kill it
[message_id: 1583]


The user is showing me a screenshot of a tweet that has the formatting issue - it shows `/bin/bash.99` instead of the actual price. This is the same shell artifact issue we saw earlier. The tweet was posted twice - once with broken formatting (38m ago) and once with correct formatting (20m ago).

I need to:
1. Find what's causing the duplicate posts
2. Find what's causing the broken formatting in the older post
3. Kill the broken process/workflow

Let me check the cron jobs and any scheduled tasks.

Question: duplicate post cron job scheduled twice /bin/bash formatting

No crontab on Maya


Interesting - the crontab on the local machine is for cannadeals, not GHC. Let me check for any cron jobs via the gateway, and also check what's running on the Fred machine.


Deal Post - X + Pinterest (every 30 min)

SCHEDULED TASK: Post 1 deal to X and Pinterest using Maya VM twikit/py3-pinterest.

## CRITICAL: Use Maya VM, NOT Fred social-poster
- X: twikit v2.3.3 on Maya VM (`ssh maya@maya`)
- Script: `/home/maya/workspace/scripts/x_twikit_post2.py`
- Cookies: `/home/maya/workspace/x_cookies.json`

## Workflow
1. Fetch deals: `curl -s "https://www.gottahavecoups.com/api/v1/deals?limit=20&sort=newest" | python3 -c "import sys,json; d=json.load(sys.stdin); deals=d if isinstance(d,list) else d.get('deals',[]); [print(f\"{x['id']}|{x.get('title','')[:60]}|${x.get('price','')}|{x.get('discount_percentage',0)}%\") for x in deals[:15]]"`
2. Check hash: `python3 scripts/posted_db.py check <deal_id> x`
3. If POSTED:YES — SKIP, pick another
4. Pick unposted deal (50%+ off, popular brand, limited time, freebies, under $10)
5. Download share image: `wget -q "https://www.gottahavecoups.com/api/v1/share/image/<deal_id>" -O /tmp/deal_img.jpg`
6. **BUILD TWEET:** Hook + value + 5-8 hashtags + link LAST. KEEP UNDER 280 CHARS.
7. **MANDATORY VALIDATION:** `python3 scripts/validate_tweet.py '<tweet_text>'` — If INVALID, STOP and pick different deal.
8. **POST TO X (Maya VM twikit):**
   ```bash
   ssh maya@maya "cat > /tmp/tweet.txt << 'TWEET'
   <tweet text here>
   TWEET"
   scp /tmp/deal_img.jpg maya@maya:/tmp/deal_img.jpg
   ssh maya@maya "python3 /home/maya/workspace/scripts/x_twikit_post2.py <deal_id> --file /tmp/tweet.txt"
   ```
9. **POST TO PINTEREST (Maya VM py3-pinterest):**
   ```bash
   ssh maya@maya "python3 /home/maya/workspace/scripts/pin_post_v2.py <deal_id> '<title>' '<description>' 1134485031073239531"
   ```
10. Record posts: `python3 scripts/posted_db.py record <deal_id> x <tweet_id> <url>`
11. Log in memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md

## If X cookies expired
Run: `ssh maya@maya "DISPLAY=:0 python3 /home/maya/workspace/scripts/extract_x_cookies.py"`

## Tweet format (STRICT)
- Hook (emoji + deal highlight)
- Product name + price (with $, e.g., "$12.99")
- 5-8 hashtags
- Link LAST: gottahavecoups.com/deal/<id>
- KEEP UNDER 280 CHARS

## NEVER post if validation fails:
- Shell artifacts (/bin/bash, python3 -c)
- Broken prices (.20 instead of $10.20)
- Broken emojis (�)
- > 280 chars

X Engagement - Helpful Replies (5/day)

SCHEDULED TASK: Post 1 helpful engagement reply on X/Twitter.

## CRITICAL: Use GHC profile ONLY
- SOCIAL_PROFILE=/home/crogers2287/.social-poster-profile-ghc
- NEVER use /home/crogers2287/.social-poster-profile/ (that's @cannadealsfl)
- NEVER use Maya VM twikit or cannadeals cookies

## Rules
- Search hashtags: #dealhunter #couponing #savemoney #amazondeal #frugalliving #budgettips #deals #bargain
- Find a REAL person's tweet (not a bot/spam account) that's recent and relevant
- Reply with something genuinely helpful
- NO self-promotion. No links to GottaHaveCoups. Just be helpful.
- NO hashtags on replies
- Log in memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md

## Method
cd /home/crogers2287/openclaw-workspaces/cannadeals-marketing/skills/social-poster
SOCIAL_PROFILE=/home/crogers2287/.social-poster-profile-ghc xvfb-run --auto-servernum --server-args="-screen 0 1920x1080x24" node post.mjs twitter-reply "<reply>" --url "<tweet_url>"

Canna: Evening X Deal Post (5 PM EST)

SCHEDULED TASK: Post an evening deal tweet to X/Twitter.

## Workflow
1. Run the deal posting engine: docker exec canna python3 /workspace/scripts/post_deal.py x
2. The script automatically:
   - Fetches live deals from https://cannadealsfl.com/api/deals
   - Picks the best unposted deal (priority dispos: Jungle Boys, The Flowery, Cookies, GoldFlower, Sunburn, Trulieve)
   - Checks posted_deals.db to avoid duplicates
   - Posts via twikit with proper hashtags
   - Records the post
3. Log result in memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md

## Evening Summary
After posting, briefly summarize the day:
- How many deals posted today
- Any issues encountered
- Top deals that went live

## Dry Run (for debugging)
docker exec canna python3 /workspace/scripts/post_deal.py x --dry-run

Canna: X Engagement - Evening (6 PM EST)

Canna: Morning X Deal Post (8 AM EST)

SCHEDULED TASK: Post a morning deal tweet to X/Twitter.

## Workflow
1. Run the deal posting engine: docker exec canna python3 /workspace/scripts/post_deal.py x
2. The script automatically:
   - Fetches live deals from https://cannadealsfl.com/api/deals
   - Picks the best deal (priority dispos: Jungle Boys, The Flowery, Cookies, GoldFlower, Sunburn, Trulieve)
   - Checks for duplicates in posted_deals.db
   - Posts via twikit with proper hashtags (#FLMedicalTrees #FloridaCannabis #MMJ + dispo hashtag)
   - Records the post to prevent duplicates
3. Log result in memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md

## Rules
- The post_deal.py script pulls LIVE deals — never post from memory
- If API is down, post engagement content instead (strain question, patient tip, etc)
- If rate limited (226 error), wait 5 min and retry once with --force flag
- If script fails, check /workspace/scripts/post_deal.log for errors

## Dry Run (for debugging)
docker exec canna python3 /workspace/scripts/post_deal.py x --dry-run

GHC Weekly Analytics

📊 Weekly analytics check for GottaHaveCoups. Review posted_deals.json, analyze posting performance, and suggest improvements for the upcoming week. Create a brief report.


I see multiple cron jobs. The key one for deal posting is:
- "Deal Post - X + Pinterest (every 30 min)" - every 30 minutes

But I also see:
- "GHC Deal Posting - Morning" - at 8 AM EST
- "GHC Deal Posting - Midday" - at 1 PM EST

These are additional cron jobs that might be causing duplicates. Let me check if there's an old process or script still running.

The screenshot shows:
- 38m ago: Broken post with "/bin/bash.99"
- 20m ago: Good post

The broken one has shell artifacts which suggests it's using the OLD method (shell/heredoc) instead of the Python method we fixed.

Let me check for running processes and old scripts.

Let me check the recent posts in the database to see if there are duplicates:

cat posted_deals_v2.json | python3 -c "import sys,json;d=json.load(sys.stdin);[print(f\"{p['iso']} | {p['platform']} | deal:{p['deal_id']} | {p.get('title','')[:50]}\") for p in sorted(d['posts'], key=lambda x: x['timestamp'], reverse=True)[:20]]"


No recent posts.

Interesting - the `posted_db.py recent x 2` shows "No recent posts" but the file shows posts from earlier today. The issue might be that the cron job is using a different database file or the timing is off.

Let me check if there's another posted_db file or if the cron job is using a different path:

find /home/crogers2287 -name "posted*.json" 2>/dev/null | head -10

ls -la /home/crogers2287/openclaw-workspaces/ghc-marketing/*.json 2>/dev/null | head -10


Command still running (session kind-sage, pid 153871). Use process (list/poll/log/write/kill/clear/remove) for follow-up.

There are TWO database files:
1. `posted_deals.json` - empty/old (19 bytes)
2. `posted_deals_v2.json` - the real one with data

The cron job is probably using the wrong one. Let me check the old one and see what the cron job is actually calling.

Good - the current `posted_db.py` uses `posted_deals_v2.json`. But there might be an old script or the cron job might be calling the wrong thing. Let me check what's in the cron job payload more carefully and also check for any old scripts that might be running.

Actually, looking at the cron job I listed earlier, the "Deal Post - X + Pinterest (every 30 min)" job says it uses `posted_db.py` which should be correct. But maybe there's an issue with the script it's calling.

Let me check the Maya VM for old scripts that might be running with the broken formatting.

The `post_to_x.sh` script is incomplete - it doesn't actually post anything. But the `post_x_v4.py` looks like it could be the one causing issues. Let me check the timestamps on the X posts to see which one is which, and check if there's an old cron job or process running the broken version.

Let me check the X account directly to see the duplicate posts and their timestamps.

ls -la /tmp/x_*.png 2>/dev/null | head -5

I can't access X directly due to restrictions. Let me look at the cron job history to see what happened. The issue is that there are TWO posts of the same deal - one with broken formatting and one with correct formatting.

The broken one (38m ago) has `/bin/bash.99` which is a shell artifact.
The correct one (20m ago) has proper formatting.

This suggests:
1. One posting mechanism is using shell/heredoc (broken)
2. One posting mechanism is using Python/UTF-8 (correct)

Let me check the cron runs to see what happened.
