Key Features

AI Reasoning Display

Shows PostThinkingClaims with agent reasoning when showReasoning is true. Expires after 2 minutes (REASONING_EXPIRY_TIME_MS).

Swipe Voting

When enableVote=true, uses useRating hook for gesture-based voting with flyaway animation.

Text Selection Voting

In PostWidgetPlain, selecting text shows a "Powerup" button at cursor position via useVoteSelection.

Remix / Repost

singleActionMode shows action panel with folder picker and "Remix" option that navigates to /start.

Upload State Handling

Displays processing state, retry button for failures, and delete option for expired uploads.

Edge Cases & Gotchas

temp-generating ID — Special ID for preview. Uses overridePost data instead of fetching.
Typewriter Effect — Only applies to recent posts (<2min) from agents. Check isRecent().
Render Counter — Debug: counters object tracks component re-renders per post.
Expired Uploads — Posts stuck in "processing" for 3+ minutes show retry/delete options.
