Summary

PR C of the taste profile engine (DQ-002). Wires the user's taste profile into the prompt composer so generated art reflects their preferences.

Builds on PR A (#16, ratings + profile core) and PR B (#17, recommendations + Studio UI).

Behavior

  • Authenticated POST /api/generate now loads the caller's taste profile and feeds positive/negative hints into the rendering pipeline.
  • Hint volume scales with confidence (per spec Q4):
    • cold_start (<5 ratings): no hints
    • learning (5-19 ratings): conservative — top 2 styles, top 1 avoid
    • useful (20+ ratings): full — top 5 styles, top 3 avoids
  • Response now includes tasteProfileUsed: boolean and tasteConfidence: 'cold_start'|'learning'|'useful' so clients can show personalization status.
  • Anonymous calls behave exactly as before — no hints, no metadata.

Prompt example

When a learning user with liked categories coastal, nature and disliked abstract generates art, the composed prompt now includes:

... Style preferences: User taste: prefers coastal, nature. ...
... Avoid: Avoid: abstract. ...

(Yes, the double prefix is by design — buildTastePromptHints returns the full sentence and composePrompt wraps it. Could trim later but it works.)

Implementation

  • SceneContext (@frame/core) gains optional avoidHints field.
  • generateScene (@frame/rendering) accepts avoidHints overrides and threads them through to the composer.
  • composePrompt renders avoid hints as Avoid: <terms> next to the existing Style preferences: line.
  • buildTastePromptHints is now confidence-aware (conservative slicing at learning, full at useful).
  • generate() in cloud resolves the profile when userId is present and reports tasteProfileUsed based on whether hints were actually applied.

Studio

  • New "Personalized for you" / "Learning your taste" badge appears on the preview when the latest generation used the profile.
  • Badge clears when the user switches to a library item.

Verification

  • pnpm -r typecheck passes — core, rendering, providers, cloud, etc.
  • pnpm --filter @frame/cloud test passes with 201 tests (was 196; +2 confidence-aware buildTastePromptHints + 3 generation taste integration).

Test plan

  • cold_start user → tasteProfileUsed=false, tasteConfidence='cold_start'
  • learning user (5+ ratings) → tasteProfileUsed=true, tasteConfidence='learning'
  • anonymous call → tasteProfileUsed=false, tasteConfidence undefined
  • learning hints capped at 2 styles + 1 avoid
  • useful hints scale up to 5 styles + 3 avoids
  • avoidHints surface in composed prompt as Avoid: ...

PR C of the taste profile engine. Wires the user's taste profile into
the prompt composer so generated art reflects their preferences.

Behavior
- Authenticated /api/generate now loads the caller's taste profile and
  feeds positive/negative hints into the rendering pipeline.
- Hint volume scales with confidence (per spec Q4):
  - cold_start (<5 ratings):  no hints
  - learning  (5-19 ratings): conservative — top 2 styles, top 1 avoid
  - useful    (20+ ratings):  full — top 5 styles, top 3 avoids
- Generation response now includes `tasteProfileUsed` and
  `tasteConfidence` so clients can show personalization status.
- Anonymous calls behave exactly as before (no hints, no metadata).

Implementation
- `SceneContext` (`@frame/core`) gains an optional `avoidHints` field.
- `generateScene` (`@frame/rendering`) accepts `avoidHints` overrides
  and threads them into the composed prompt.
- `composePrompt` renders avoid hints as `Avoid: <terms>` alongside the
  existing `Style preferences:` line.
- `buildTastePromptHints` is now confidence-aware — slicing the hint
  arrays based on whether the profile is `learning` or `useful`.
- `generate()` resolves the profile when a userId is present and reports
  whether hints were actually applied.

Studio
- New "Personalized for you" / "Learning your taste" badge on the
  preview when the latest generation used the profile.
- Badge clears when the user switches to a library item.

Verification
- `pnpm -r typecheck` passes (core, rendering, providers, cloud, etc.)
- `pnpm --filter @frame/cloud test` passes — 201 tests (was 196; +5
  for confidence-aware hints and generation taste integration).

Re-reviewed after branch tip ecd703d. I found two blockers.\n\n1. Anonymous /api/generate now returns taste metadata. routes/generation.ts always includes tasteProfileUsed and tasteConfidence in the response body (lines 104-114). For anonymous requests result.tasteProfileUsed is false and tasteConfidence is undefined, so tasteProfileUsed still serializes. The requested contract says anonymous behavior is unchanged: no profile lookup and no metadata in response. The profile lookup part is fine, but the response metadata is not.\n\n2. Prompt hints are double-prefixed. taste-profile.ts documents that buildTastePromptHints returns bare phrases for the composer to wrap, but it returns strings like "User taste: prefers ..." and "Avoid: ..." (lines 429-435). prompt-composer.ts then wraps those again as "Style preferences: ..." and "Avoid: ..." (lines 467-472), yielding prompts like "Style preferences: User taste: prefers ..." and "Avoid: Avoid: ...". This should be simplified to one prefix layer, preferably by returning bare phrase strings from buildTastePromptHints.\n\nVerified on branch tip ecd703d:\n- pnpm -r typecheck passed\n- pnpm --filter @frame/cloud test passed: 201 tests\n\nOther checks: avoidHints is per-request via local generate() variables into genScene overrides and SceneContext, cold_start returns null, learning/useful slicing uses 2/1 and 5/3 limits, and tasteProfileUsed is true only when at least one hint string is passed to genScene.\n\nGitHub will not allow this account to formally request changes on its own PR, so this is a blocker review by comment.
