"""XEngine — draft X (Twitter) posts/replies, ALL held for CEO approval.

Mirrors the ReleaseManagerEngine "detect -> originate a CEO-gated artifact ->
hold" shape:

* **Default OFF.** ``x_engine_enabled`` is False, so neither the release-post
  hook nor the mentions loop originates anything.
* **Never posts.** Every draft is HELD (``confirmed_by_human=False``, owned by
  the Secretary, skipped by every dispatcher) — posting is acted on only by
  ``XPostService`` behind an explicit CEO approve.
* **No creds, no calls.** Without stored X credentials the client degrades to
  ``NullXClient`` (never raises, never egresses) exactly like an unconfigured
  research provider.
* **Local model only.** Drafting runs on the local LLM (MemoryDistiller
  posture) — never a cloud LLM in the hot path.
* **Mention text is screened.** A tweet mentioning the account is external,
  attacker-writable text; ``foundation.policy.injection_guard.
  screen_external_text`` neutralizes it (envelope + inline pattern flags,
  nothing dropped) before it reaches the reply prompt or the persisted
  ``x_mention_ref`` marker — the same guard vault_intake_engine applies to
  note bodies.

Two responsibilities: ``draft_release_post`` is the event-driven hook called
from ``ReleaseProposalService.approve()``'s publish success branch;
``run_cycle`` is the periodic mentions poll driven by the orchestrator loop.

# Ported from agents/prompts/identities/head-marketing.md's VOICE GUIDE (the
# reasoning-backed voice HoM's own spawns already carry) plus a slop-ban list
# adapted from agents/prompts/teams/ux_ui.md's "AI tells to avoid" — the local-
# model release/reply drafts previously ran on one throwaway sentence with
# neither. ``{product_name}`` is filled in by ``_hom_voice`` so the shared
# style examples never hardcode a literal brand name.
_HOM_VOICE_GUIDE = """VOICE, with the reasoning behind each rule:
- Confident, not hedgy: you're announcing something that shipped and works —
  say "{product_name} now does X," never "we think this might help with X."
- Concise: one post, one idea; if a caveat doesn't fit, cut the caveat, not
  the point.
- No emoji spam: one deliberate emoji at most (e.g. a rocket on a launch);
  three reads like a bot.
- No hashtags unless truly apt: a hashtag on every post is noise, it earns
  its place only in a real active conversation.
- Speak as "we": you represent the company, not a persona.
- Plain text: no markdown, no bullet lists, no thread — X renders anything
  else as visibly broken.
- One post: every draft is a complete, standalone tweet; if an idea needs a
  thread, it's the wrong feature to post about this cycle.
- Never invent facts: every claim traces back to something real — no
  made-up metrics, no "customers love it," no capability that doesn't
  exist yet.

BANNED — an instant rewrite if any of these appear in the draft:
- Em dashes.
- "game-changer", "seamless", "effortless", "supercharge", "unleash",
  "elevate", "dive in", "we're excited/thrilled to announce".
- Exclamation-mark pileups (more than one "!" anywhere in the post).
- A rhetorical question as the opening line.
- "X isn't just Y, it's Z" constructions.
- Rule-of-three adjective chains ("fast, reliable, and powerful").

STYLE EXAMPLES — voice only, do not reuse this content, write fresh copy
grounded in the real facts you were given:
- Release: "{product_name} v0.24 ships MegaTask: describe several tasks in
  one chat, we sequence them into collision-free waves automatically."
- Release: "The PR-review gate is live. Every assembled PR gets a second
  set of eyes before a PM can merge it."
- Reply: "That's the sandbox DB feature. Opt in per project under
  Settings, then call request_sandbox() to get creds."
