# AI Editor RSP — Frontend core editor UX/conversion repair

Task: `t_f03c74e9`
Site: https://aieditorrsp.net/ai-photo-prompt-editor

## Verdict

GO for Final Re-QA. The core editor now exposes the expected upload, style-selection, generation, result, auth, quota, and paid conversion affordances on the production route.

## Implemented changes

- Upload selection now creates an inline image preview card immediately after file selection.
- File metadata is secondary: filename, size, and MIME type appear under the preview.
- Added replace/remove source-image controls and cleanup of local Object URLs.
- Generate button now disables during generation, shows spinner/loading text, and blocks duplicate submits.
- Generation status copy now shows staged progress: quota/upload check, applying style prompt, result/credit update.
- Style prompt choices are now visual cards with distinct icons, selected state, use case copy, and differences for Editorial, Product Shot, Social Visual, and Cyberpunk.
- Generated result state now renders inline edited image preview when the provider returns an image URL.
- Result actions now include primary Download, Open full size, Copy prompt, Try another style, and Edit prompt.
- Provider/internal result copy was replaced with user-facing success/error copy.
- Header signed-in state surfaces avatar/name/email, plan/member status, remaining credits, and Upgrade/Billing links.
- Anonymous header state now keeps Sign in, while also exposing remaining free edits.
- `/api/credits` now returns anonymous usage, authenticated account fields, total remaining credits, checkout links, and recommended conversion actions.
- Pricing/credit panel now exposes Upgrade, credit pack, billing options, and sign-in paths.

## Files changed

- `src/components/ProductPreviewEditor.tsx`
- `src/components/AuthStatusLink.tsx`
- `src/components/CreditAccountPanel.tsx`
- `src/app/api/credits/route.ts`
- `src/app/globals.css`

## Verification

Commands run from `/root/projects/aieditorrsp`:

```text
npm run build
npx eslint src
npm run seo:audit
```

Results:

- `npm run build`: passed; OpenNext generated `.open-next/worker.js`.
- `npx eslint src`: passed with no output.
- `npm run seo:audit`: passed with `ok: true` and no failures.

Production browser verification:

- Route opened: `https://aieditorrsp.net/ai-photo-prompt-editor`
- Upload preview verified with a synthetic local image.
- Style card switching verified.
- Generate loading state verified via browser simulation without burning provider credits.
- Result preview/actions verified via browser simulation.
- Screenshot evidence: `docs/screenshots/frontend-owner-ux-conversion-repair-prod.png`

## Payment / credit path

Verified visible paths:

- Anonymous `/api/credits` response exposes free quota and checkout metadata.
- Header anonymous state exposes Sign in and free edit count.
- Insufficient/login-required editor state links to monthly upgrade, credit pack, and sign-in.
- Checkout links point to `/api/checkout/stripe?plan=monthly` and `/api/checkout/stripe?plan=credit_pack`.

Known residual risk:

- No real paid Stripe purchase was executed in this task. This follows the existing owner waiver from parent closeout; live entitlement crediting remains a post-launch monitored path unless a controlled paid checkout is explicitly approved.
