Consolidates duplicate code and removes technical debt accumulated during rapid development. This cleanup improves maintainability while preserving all functionality.
Backend cleanup:
- Remove unused legacy function findViableChildrenLegacy()
- Consolidate duplicate SQL null string helper functions into shared utils
- Unify text extraction functions across utils, engine, and id_generator
- Consolidate duplicate attribute getter functions into single implementation
Frontend cleanup:
- Remove duplicate authentication methods (authenticateWithOAuth vs performOAuthFlow)
- Remove unused hasPermission() method from auth.js
- Centralize repetitive API endpoint construction in api-client.js
- Reduce excessive console logging while preserving important error logs
Impact: -144 lines of code, improved maintainability, no functionality changes
All tests pass and builds succeed

Major architectural simplification removing content type complexity:
Database Schema:
- Remove 'type' field from content and content_versions tables
- Simplify to pure HTML storage with html_content + original_template
- Regenerate all sqlc models for SQLite and PostgreSQL
API Simplification:
- Remove content type routing and validation
- Eliminate type-specific handlers (text/markdown/structured)
- Unified HTML-first approach for all content operations
- Simplify CreateContent and UpdateContent to HTML-only
Backend Enhancements:
- Update enhancer to only generate data-content-id (no data-content-type)
- Improve container expansion utilities with comprehensive block/inline rules
- Add Phase 3 preparation with boundary-respecting traversal logic
- Strengthen element classification for viable children detection
Documentation:
- Update TODO.md to reflect Phase 1-3 completion status
- Add WORKING_ON.md documenting the architectural transformation
- Mark container expansion and HTML-first architecture as complete
This completes the transition to a unified HTML-first content management system
with automatic style detection and element-based behavior, eliminating the
complex multi-type system in favor of semantic HTML-driven editing.
- Remove internal/parser package and all legacy ID generation logic
- Update enhancer and auto_enhancer to use unified engine functions
- Migrate utility functions (FindViableChildren, HasEditableContent) to engine
- Create stub enhancer implementation that uses unified engine architecture
- Ensure all enhancement workflows now go through single unified system
- Remove parser dependencies and consolidate content processing logic
This completes the cleanup phase - all components now use unified engine
instead of fragmented ID generation systems.
- Create internal/engine module as single source of truth for content processing
- Consolidate 4 separate ID generation systems into one unified engine
- Update API handlers to use engine for consistent server-side ID generation
- Remove frontend client-side ID generation, delegate to server engine
- Ensure identical HTML markup + file path produces identical content IDs
- Resolve content persistence failures caused by ID fragmentation between manual editing and enhancement processes
