What's Changed

Learning system — consistency fixes

• Fixed silent llm_rerank_top_k range mismatch: the overlay parsed values in the range 5–100 while the API accepted 1–200. Values above 100 now round-trip correctly instead of silently reverting to the default 30.
• Unified disliked keywords: learned high-frequency disliked terms (extracted from 1–2 star ratings) are now automatically merged with your explicit "Show me less of this" list and applied as a single ranking penalty. Football and Hollywood articles finally sink even when you haven't manually listed them.
• Reader profile now editable in the UI: profile_summary / bootstrap_profile_summary is exposed via GET/PUT /api/preferences/weights so the AI reranker narrative can be viewed and edited from the Digest settings page.

New features

• Category balancing gate: optional per-category exclude/demote thresholds with an evidence guard (category_min_ratings) to prevent burying a category before it has been fairly rated.
• Disliked keywords in digest config: disliked_keywords added to the digest config API and admin routes — soft negative ranking signal, separate from hard-block exclude_keywords.
• YouTube proxy + retry: CONDENSEIT_YOUTUBE_PROXY env var routes YouTube feed requests through a proxy to bypass datacenter IP blocks. Transient 5xx/429 responses are retried with exponential backoff.

Digest settings UI — full revamp

• Plain-language sections replacing the old overloaded form:
  • What goes in your digest — article limits, freshness, category balance, language filter.
  • Things to avoid — Block completely (hard drop, red tags) vs Show me less of this (soft demote, orange tags) with a note that 1–2 star ratings feed the demote list automatically.
  • Summary style — takeaways and paragraph count.
  • YouTube transcription — unchanged logic, now in its own card.
  • Personalization — Off / Balanced / Aggressive preset tiles that write a full weight bundle; reader profile free-text box; "Let AI re-order my top stories" toggle surfaced at top level.
  • Advanced (collapsible) — all raw signal weights preserved, just demoted out of the way.
• Cross-reference captions on the Learning Profile page linking learned disliked terms to the editable list in Digest settings.

Fixes

• Fixed pyproject.toml duplicate static-file inclusion causing hatchling build errors.
