+# Daily Journal Prompt Generator - Functional Overview
+
+## 📖 What This Application Does
+
+This is a web application that helps writers and journalers by generating creative writing prompts. It uses AI (DeepSeek or OpenAI) to create unique prompts, remembers what prompts you've seen before to avoid repetition, and learns from your preferences to generate better prompts over time.
+
+### Core Features:
+- **AI-Powered Prompt Generation**: Creates unique journal writing prompts using AI
+- **Smart Memory**: Remembers the last 60 prompts you've seen to avoid repetition
+- **Prompt Pool**: Stores generated prompts so you can use them even without internet
+- **Theme Learning**: Learns what themes you like/dislike to improve future prompts
+- **Web Interface**: Easy-to-use website accessible from any device
+
+## 🏗️ How It Works - System Flow
+
+### 1. User Opens the Website
+- User visits http://localhost:3000 (or your deployed URL)
+- The frontend loads and shows the most recent prompt from history
+
+### 2. Getting New Prompts
+- User clicks "Draw 3 New Prompts"
+- Backend selects 3 random prompts from the pool
+- If pool is low (< 20 prompts), system suggests refilling it
+
+### 3. Selecting a Prompt
+- User clicks on one of the 3 displayed prompts
+- User clicks "Use Selected Prompt"
+- The selected prompt is added to history (position 0, most recent)
+- History shifts - oldest prompt (position 59) is removed if history is full
+
+### 4. Refilling the Prompt Pool
+- When pool is low, user clicks "Fill Prompt Pool"
+- System immediately starts refilling pool using AI
+- While pool refills, user rates 6 "theme words" (e.g., "adventure", "reflection")
+- User adjusts weights (0-6) for each theme word:
+  - 0 = Ignore this theme
+  - 3 = Neutral (default)
+  - 6 = Strongly prefer this theme
+- After rating, system generates new theme words for future use
+
+### 5. Theme Learning Process
+- System maintains 30 theme words in a "cyclic buffer"
+- Positions 0-5: Queued words - shown to user for rating
+- Positions 6-11: Active words - used for AI prompt generation
+- Positions 12-29: Historic words - older theme words
+- When user rates queued words, new words are generated and inserted at position 0
+
+## 🗂️ File Structure & Purpose
+
+### Data Files (in `data/` directory)
+- `prompts_historic.json` - Last 60 prompts shown to user (cyclic buffer)

+## 🛠️ Technologies Explained Simply
+
+### FastAPI (Backend)
+- **What it is**: A modern Python web framework for building APIs
+- **Why we use it**: Fast, easy to use, automatically creates API documentation
+- **Simple analogy**: Like a restaurant waiter - takes orders (requests) from customers (frontend) and brings food (responses) from the kitchen (AI/service)
+
+### Astro (Frontend)
+- **What it is**: A web framework for building fast websites
+- **Why we use it**: Good performance, can use React components when needed
+- **Simple analogy**: Like a book - static pages (Astro) with some interactive pop-ups (React components)
+
+### React Components
+- **What they are**: Reusable pieces of interactive web interface
+- **Why we use them**: For interactive parts like prompt selection and theme rating
+- **Where used**: `PromptDisplay.jsx`, `StatsDashboard.jsx`, `FeedbackWeighting.jsx`
+
+### Docker & Docker Compose
+- **What they are**: Tools to package and run applications in containers
+- **Why we use them**: Makes setup easy - runs everything with one command
+- **Simple analogy**: Like shipping containers - everything needed is packed together and runs the same way everywhere
+
+## 📊 Key Concepts Explained
+
+### Cyclic Buffer
+- **What**: A fixed-size list where new items push out old ones
+- **Example**: History holds 60 prompts. When #61 arrives, #1 is removed
+- **Why**: Prevents unlimited growth, ensures recent data is prioritized
+
+### Prompt Pool
+- **What**: A collection of pre-generated prompts
+- **Size**: Target is 20 prompts
+- **Purpose**: Allows using prompts without waiting for AI generation
+
+### Theme Words & Weights
+- **Theme Words**: Words like "adventure", "reflection", "memory" that guide AI
+- **Weights**: Numbers 0-6 that tell AI how much to use each theme
+- **Flow**: User rates words → Weights are saved → AI uses weights for future prompts
+
+### API Endpoints
+- **What**: URLs that the frontend calls to get data or perform actions
+- **Examples**:
+  - `GET /api/v1/prompts/draw` - Get prompts from pool
+  - `POST /api/v1/prompts/fill-pool` - Refill prompt pool
+  - `GET /api/v1/feedback/queued` - Get theme words for rating
+
+## 🚀 Getting Started - Simple Version
+
+### 1. Copy environment file:
+```bash
+cp .env.example .env
+```
+
+### 2. Edit `.env` file:
+Add your AI API key (get from DeepSeek or OpenAI):
+```
+DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=your_key_here
+```
+
+### 3. Run with Docker:
+```bash
+docker-compose up --build
+```
+
+### 4. Open in browser:
+- Website: http://localhost:3000

+- **History count**: Shown in Stats Dashboard
+- **Theme words**: Click "Fill Prompt Pool" to see current themes
+
+### Data Files Location:
+All data is saved in the `data/` directory:
+- Prompts you've seen: `prompts_historic.json`
+- Available prompts: `prompts_pool.json`
+- Theme preferences: `feedback_historic.json`
+
+## ❓ Frequently Asked Questions
+
+### Q: Where do prompts come from?
+A: From AI (DeepSeek/OpenAI) using the template in `ds_prompt.txt`
+
+### Q: How does it avoid repeating prompts?
+A: It keeps 60 most recent prompts in history and avoids those
+
+### Q: What happens if I rate a theme word 0?
+A: That theme will be ignored in future prompt generation
+
+### Q: Can I use it without internet?
+A: Yes, if the pool has prompts. AI calls need internet.
+
+### Q: How do I reset everything?
+A: Delete files in `data/` directory (except templates)
+
+## 📈 Understanding the Numbers
+
+### History (60 prompts):
+- Position 0: Most recent prompt (shown on main page)
+- Position 59: Oldest prompt (will be removed next)
+- Full when: 60 prompts stored
+
+### Pool (target: 20 prompts):
+- "Low": Less than 20 prompts
+- "Full": 20+ prompts available
+- Drawn: 3 prompts at a time
+
+### Theme Words (30 words):
+- Queued (0-5): Shown for rating (6 words)
+- Active (6-11): Used for prompt generation (6 words)
+- Historic (12-29): Older words (18 words)
+
+## 🔍 Troubleshooting Common Issues
+
+### "No Prompts Available"
+- Check if `prompts_pool.json` has prompts
+- Try clicking "Fill Prompt Pool"
+- Check API key in `.env` file
+
+### "Permission Denied" in Docker
+- Check `data/` directory permissions
+- Try: `chmod 700 data/`
+
+### Website Not Loading
+- Wait 8 seconds after `docker-compose up`
+- Check if containers are running: `docker-compose ps`
+- Check logs: `docker-compose logs`
+
+### AI Not Responding
+- Verify API key in `.env`
+- Check internet connection
+- Try different AI provider (DeepSeek vs OpenAI)
+
+## 📝 Key Configuration Settings
+
+### In `settings.cfg`:
+- `num_prompts = 3` - Number of prompts drawn at once
+- `prompt_min_length = 100` - Minimum prompt length

+npm run dev
 ```
 
-## 🔧 Usage
+## 📚 API Usage
 
-### New Pool-Based System
+The API provides comprehensive endpoints for prompt management:
-
-The system now uses a two-step process:
-
-1. **Fill the Prompt Pool**: Generate prompts using AI and add them to the pool
-2. **Draw from Pool**: Select prompts from the pool for journaling sessions
-
-### Command Line Options
 
+### Basic Operations
 ```bash
-# Default: Draw prompts from pool (no API call)
+# Draw prompts from pool
-python generate_prompts.py
+curl http://localhost:8000/api/v1/prompts/draw
 
-# Interactive mode with menu
+# Fill prompt pool
-python generate_prompts.py --interactive
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/v1/prompts/fill-pool
 
-# Fill the prompt pool using AI (makes API call)
+# Get statistics
-python generate_prompts.py --fill-pool
+curl http://localhost:8000/api/v1/prompts/stats
-
-# Show pool statistics
-python generate_prompts.py --pool-stats
-
-# Show history statistics
-python generate_prompts.py --stats
-
-# Help
-python generate_prompts.py --help
 ```
 
-### Interactive Mode Options
+### Interactive Documentation
+Access the automatic API documentation at:
+- Swagger UI: http://localhost:8000/docs
+- ReDoc: http://localhost:8000/redoc
 
-1. **Draw prompts from pool (no API call)**: Displays and consumes prompts from the pool file
+## 🔧 Configuration
-2. **Fill prompt pool using API**: Generates new prompts using AI and adds them to pool
-3. **View pool statistics**: Shows pool size, target size, and available sessions
-4. **View history statistics**: Shows historic prompt count and capacity
-5. **Exit**: Quit the program
-
-### Prompt Generation Process
-
-1. User chooses to fill the prompt pool.
-2. The system reads the template from `ds_prompt.txt`
-3. It loads the previous 60 prompts from the fixed length cyclic buffer `historic_prompts.json`
-4. The AI generates some number of new prompts, attempting to minimize repetition
-5. The new prompts are used to fill the prompt pool to the `settings.cfg` configured value.
-
-### Prompt Selection Process
-
-1. A `settings.cfg` configurable number of prompts are drawn from the prompt pool and displayed to the user.
-2. User selects one prompt for his/her journal writing session, which is added to the `historic_prompts.json` cyclic buffer.
-3. All prompts which were displayed are removed from the prompt pool permanently.
-
-## 📝 Prompt Examples
-
-The tool generates prompts like these (from `historic_prompts.json`):
-
-- **Memory-based**: "Describe a memory you have that is tied to a specific smell..."
-- **Creative Writing**: "Invent a mythological creature for a modern urban setting..."
-- **Self-Reflection**: "Write a dialogue between two aspects of yourself..."
-- **Observational**: "Describe your current emotional state as a weather system..."
-
-Each prompt is designed to inspire 1-2 pages of journal writing and ranges from 500-1000 characters.
-
-## ⚙️ Configuration
 
 ### Environment Variables
-
+Create a `.env` file based on `.env.example`:
-Create a `.env` file with your API configuration:
 
 ```env
-# For DeepSeek
+# Required: At least one API key
-DEEPSEEK_API_KEY="sk-your-deepseek-api-key"
+DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=your_deepseek_api_key
+OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key
 
-# For OpenAI
+# Optional: Customize behavior
-# OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-your-openai-api-key"
+API_BASE_URL=https://api.deepseek.com
-
+MODEL=deepseek-chat
-# Optional: Custom API base URL
+DEBUG=false
-# API_BASE_URL="https://api.deepseek.com"
+CACHED_POOL_VOLUME=20
+NUM_PROMPTS_PER_SESSION=6
 ```
 
-### Prompt Template Customization
+### Application Settings
+Edit `data/settings.cfg` to customize:
+- Prompt length constraints
+- Number of prompts per session
+- Pool volume targets
 
-You can modify `ds_prompt.txt` to change the prompt generation parameters:
+## 🐛 Troubleshooting
 
-- Number of prompts generated (default: 6)
+### Docker Permission Issues
-- Prompt length requirements (default: 500-1000 characters)
+If you encounter permission errors when running Docker containers:
-- Specific themes or constraints
-- Output format specifications
 
-## 🔄 Maintaining Prompt History
+1. **Check directory permissions**:
+   ```bash
+   ls -la data/
+   ```
+   The `data/` directory should be readable/writable by your user (UID 1000 typically).
 
-The `historic_prompts.json` file maintains a rolling history of the last 60 prompts. This helps:
+2. **Fix permissions** (if needed):
+   ```bash
+   chmod 700 data/
+   chown -R $(id -u):$(id -g) data/
+   ```
 
-1. **Avoid repetition**: The AI references previous prompts to generate new, diverse topics
+3. **Verify Docker user matches host user**:
-2. **Track usage**: See what types of prompts have been generated
+   The Dockerfile creates a user with UID 1000. If your host user has a different UID:
-3. **Quality control**: Monitor the variety and quality of generated prompts
+   ```bash
+   # Check your UID
+   id -u
+
+   # Update Dockerfile to match your UID
+   # Change: RUN useradd -m -u 1000 appuser
+   # To: RUN useradd -m -u YOUR_UID appuser
+   ```
+
+### npm Build Errors
+If you see `npm ci` errors:
+- The Dockerfile uses `npm install` instead of `npm ci` for development
+- For production, generate a `package-lock.json` file first:
+  ```bash
+  cd frontend
+  npm install
+  ```
+
+### API Connection Issues
+If the backend can't connect to AI APIs:
+1. Verify your API key is set in `.env`
+2. Check network connectivity
+3. Ensure the API service is available
+
+## 🧪 Testing
+
+Run the backend tests:
+```bash
+python test_backend.py
+```
+
+## 🐳 Docker Development
+
+### Development Mode
+```bash
+# Hot reload for both backend and frontend
+docker-compose up --build
+
+# View logs
+docker-compose logs -f
+
+# Stop services
+docker-compose down
+```
+
+### Useful Commands
+```bash
+# Rebuild specific service
+docker-compose build backend
+
+# Run single service
+docker-compose up backend
+
+# Execute commands in container
+docker-compose exec backend python -m pytest
+```
+
+## 🔄 Migration from CLI
+
+The web application maintains full compatibility with the original CLI data format:
+
+1. **Data Files**: Existing JSON files are automatically used
+2. **Templates**: Same prompt and feedback templates
+3. **Settings**: Compatible settings.cfg format
+4. **Functionality**: All CLI features available via API

+Request for generation of writing prompts for journaling
+
+Payload:
+The previous 60 prompts have been provided as a JSON array for reference.
+The previous 30 feedback themes are also provided. You should BE CAREFUL to avoid re-using these words.
+
+Guidelines:
+The six total returned words must be unique.
+Using the attached JSON of writing prompts, you should try to pick out 4 unique and intentionally vague single-word themes that apply to some portion of the list. They can range from common to uncommon words.
+Then add 2 more single word divergent themes that are less related to the historic prompts and are somewhat different from the other 4 for a total of 6 words.
+These 2 divergent themes give the user the option to steer away from existing themes, so be bold and unique.
+A very high temperature AI response is warranted here to generate a large vocabulary.
+DO NOT REUSE PREVIOUS WORDS PROVIDED IN THE REQUEST.
+
+Expected Output:
+Output as a JSON list with just the six words, in lowercase.
+Despite the provided history being a keyed list or dictionary, the expected return JSON will be a simple list with no keys.
+Respond ONLY with valid JSON. No explanations, no markdown, no backticks.

 The history will allow for reducing repetition, however some thematic overlap is acceptable. Try harder to avoid overlap with lower indices in the array.
 As the user discards prompts, the themes will be very slowly steered, so it's okay to take some inspiration from the history.
 
+Feedback Themes:
+A JSON of single-word feedback themes is provided with each having a weight value from 1 to 6.
+Consider these weighted themes only rarely when creating a new writing prompt. Most prompts should be created with full creative freedom.
+Only gently influence writing prompts with these. It is better to have all generated prompts ignore a theme than have many reference a theme too overtly.
+If a theme word is submitted with a weight of 1, there should be a fair chance that no generated prompts consider it.
+If a theme word is submitted with a weight of 6, there should be a high chance at least one generated prompt considers it.
+THESE ARE NOT SIMPLY WORDS TO INSERT INTO PROMPTS. They are themes that should only be felt in the background.

What would happen if you deliberately filled it with something, or committed to keeping it perpetually empty?"

Write about the history and humanity documented in this slow, uncurated accumulation."

Write a character study based on the quiet traces left in the pages of another life."

How does it feel to be so definitively separated from the sun's glare? Now, consider a metaphorical umbra in your life: a situation or emotion that casts a deep, distinct shadow. What grows, or what becomes clearer, in this cooler, shaded space?"
+  },
+  {
+    "prompt43": "Observe a tiled floor, a honeycomb, or a patchwork quilt. Study the tessellation—the repeating pattern of individual units creating a cohesive whole. Now, apply this concept to a week of your life. What are the fundamental, repeating units (tasks, interactions, thoughts) that combine to form the larger pattern? Is the overall design harmonious, chaotic, or in need of a new tile? Write about the beauty and constraint of life's inherent patterning."
+  },

+    "prompt44": "Consider the concept of a 'personal zenith'—the peak moment of a day, a project, or a phase of life, often recognized only in hindsight. Describe a recent zenith you experienced. What were the conditions that led to it? How did you know you had reached the apex? Was there a feeling of culmination, or was it a quiet cresting? Explore the gentle descent or plateau that followed, and how one navigates the landscape after the highest point has been passed."

+    "prompt45": "Imagine you are tasked with designing a new public holiday that celebrates a quiet, overlooked aspect of human experience—like the feeling of a first cool breeze after a heatwave, or the shared silence of strangers waiting in line. What would you call it? What rituals or observances would define it? How would people prepare for it, and what would they be encouraged to reflect upon? Write about the values and subtleties this holiday would enshrine, and why such a celebration feels necessary in the rhythm of the year."

Identify a mental or emotional hinterland within yourself: a set of feelings, memories, or potentials you rarely visit. Describe its imagined landscape. What keeps it distant? Write about a deliberate expedition into this interior wilderness. What do you discover, and how does the journey change your map of yourself?"

+  {
+    "prompt47": "Recall a moment when you were the recipient of a stranger's gaze—a brief, wordless look exchanged on the street, in a waiting room, or across a crowded space. Reconstruct the micro-expressions you perceived. What story did you instinctively write for them in that instant? Now, reverse the perspective. Imagine you were the stranger, and the look you gave was being interpreted. What unspoken narrative might they have constructed about you? Explore the silent, rapid-fire fiction we create in the gaps between people."

+    "prompt48": "You discover an old, handmade 'effigy'—a doll, a figurine, a crude sculpture—whose purpose is unclear. Describe its materials and construction. Who might have made it, and for what ritual or private reason? Does it feel protective, commemorative, or malevolent? Hold it. Write a speculative history of its creation and journey to you, exploring the human impulse to craft physical representations of our fears, hopes, or memories, and the quiet power these objects retain."

What is it like to inhabit a consciousness where nothing is ever truly empty or lost?"

+    "prompt50": "Map your personal cosmology. Identify the 'quasars' (energetic cores), the 'gossamer' nebulae (dreamy, forming ideas), the stable planets (routines), and the dark matter (unseen influences).

Write a guide to your inner universe, describing its scale, its mysteries, and its current celestial weather."

Explore the physics of being a container and the quiet adjustments required to remain both full and whole."

Write about the poetry and the vulnerability hidden within your personal, daily code."

Where are the soaring cliffs, the deep valleys, the calm meadows, the treacherous passes? When do you walk, when do you climb, when are you carried by a current? Write about journeying through this sonic territory. What part of yourself do you encounter in each region? Does the landscape change when you listen with closed eyes versus open? Explore the synesthesia of listening with your whole body."

For one day, consciously catalog the ephemeral auditory moments that usually go unnoticed: the specific creak of a floorboard, the sigh of a refrigerator cycling off, the rustle of a particular fabric. Describe these sounds with the precision of someone preserving them for posterity. Why do you choose these particular ones? What memory or feeling is tied to each? Write about the poignant act of listening to the present as if it were already becoming the past, and the history held in transient vibrations."
+  },
+  {
+    "prompt55": "Imagine your mind as a 'lattice'—a delicate, interconnected framework of beliefs, memories, and associations. Describe the nodes and the struts that connect them. Which connections are strong and frequently traveled? Which are fragile or overgrown? Now, consider a new idea or experience that doesn't fit neatly onto this existing lattice. Does it build a new node, strain an old connection, or require you to gently reshape the entire structure? Write about the mental architecture of integration and the quiet labor of building scaffolds for new understanding."

+    "prompt56": "Consider the concept of 'patina'—the beautiful, acquired sheen on an object from long use and exposure. Find an object in your possession that has developed its own patina through years of handling. Describe its surface in detail: the worn spots, the subtle discolorations, the softened edges. What stories of use and care are etched into its material? Now, reflect on the metaphorical patinas you have developed. What experiences have polished some parts of your character, while leaving others gently weathered? Write about the beauty of a life lived, not in pristine condition, but with the honorable marks of time and interaction."

What have you shed along with it?"

Write about the experience of holding a mysterious internal artifact and choosing not to solve it."

Describe the actors in this process: insects, fungi, bacteria. Reframe this not as an end, but as a vibrant, teeming transformation. How does witnessing this quiet, relentless alchemy change your perception of endings? Write about decay as a form of busy, purposeful life."
