Task: Redesign content editor for shared multi-channel previews

Feature

docs/FEATURES/channels.md

Goal

Make content creation feel like planning a real social post instead of filling out legacy form fields.

The editor should use one shared content body for every selected target channel, show selectable target channels as a vertical tab-style list, and preview the same content in platform-shaped cards for networks such as YouTube and X.

Scope

  • Keep content item editing in frontend/src/features/content/views/ContentItemDetailView.vue.
  • Replace per-channel caption editing with a shared caption and shared hashtags.
  • Let configured workspace channels be selected or unselected as targets.
  • Show target channels as a single vertical tab rail and render preview cards that look closer to social platform previews.
  • Convert shared hashtags into chip-style entry with suggestions from already used hashtags.
  • Show a workspace hashtag feed so authors can reuse existing tags.
  • Keep the editor focused on post text and target channels by removing confusing title, calendar, change summary, and base-caption fields.
  • Make target preview tabs compact.
  • Move the create content entry point into the top app menu bar.
  • Remove the asset-management tab from the content detail production panel.
  • Move content editing into the channel preview cards instead of using a separate post text field.
  • Keep target copy/title synchronized by default, with per-target opt-out.
  • Show title editing only for networks that normally need titles, such as YouTube, Reddit, Website, and newsletters.
  • Let each target choose its own media requirement.
  • Let authors upload media from the editor; uploaded media is stored as a DAM asset.
  • Let authors attach an existing workspace DAM asset to the active target preview.
  • Preserve existing content item save payloads.

Validation

cd frontend
npm run build
dotnet build backend/Socialize.slnx

Acceptance Criteria

  • Content authors select target channels with checkbox-like controls.
  • The same shared content appears on every selected channel preview.
  • The editor includes platform-specific preview treatment for YouTube and X/Twitter.
  • Saving still creates or revises a content item with the selected targets.
  • Hashtags commit to removable chips as they are entered.
  • Already used hashtags are available as suggestions.
  • The editor shows a workspace hashtag feed with usage counts.
  • The editor no longer shows title, calendar, change summary, or base-caption fields.
  • Target channel tabs use compact icon-only buttons with channel names as accessible labels and tooltips.
  • Create content is available from the top app menu bar.
  • Assets are no longer shown in the content detail production panel.
  • Authors edit the active channel preview directly.
  • Channel copy/title is synchronized by default and can be unsynchronized per target.
  • Title input only appears for title-oriented targets.
  • Each target can choose no media, image, video, clip, or carousel independently.
  • Authors can upload media from a target preview and create a DAM asset.
  • Authors can choose an existing workspace DAM asset for a target preview.
