## Added
- **A campaign you planned can now write its own posts, even with no episode behind it.** The campaign builder's "Build the story for me" lane used to save the arc and stop there, leaving you with a plan and nothing to publish. Its final step now says how many posts it will write, across how many platforms, for how many credits, and how many of them are waiting on an asset you have not made yet. Press it and the posts are written and sent to the approval queue for review. Nothing publishes on its own. **Save plan only** is still there if you want the arc without the spend.
- **Any campaign that has a plan and no posts can be generated from the campaign page.** That is also how you finish a plan you saved earlier, or retry one where generation failed. The plan stays on the campaign either way, so nothing you built is lost.
- **Magic Campaign is now a named feature on your plan.** Every workspace that had it keeps it, on every plan, with nothing to do and nothing to buy. Naming it means a workspace that does not have it sees a clear explanation of what it does and how to get it.
- **Episodes have a Season column and a Season filter.** Sort by season and episodes stay in episode order within each season, with un-seasoned episodes last. The filter lists only the seasons present in the tab you are looking at, plus "No season" when some episodes have none.

## Improved
- **Viewers now see a workspace they can read and not accidentally try to change.** Write controls, uploads, AI actions, billing shortcuts and the "+ New" button are hidden or disabled for viewers across the app shell, the post editor, comments, bulk actions, the calendar, scripts, ideas and the clips library. Contributors keep every action they had.
- **Workspace configuration pages now open to owners and managers only.** Tags and Text Snippets deliberately stay open to contributors, who use them while writing.

## Fixed
- **A campaign with a lot of posts no longer says "No posts written yet".** The campaign page now loads every post on a campaign, however many it has, which matters most for a freshly generated one.
- **The sidebar no longer shows configuration pages you cannot open.** Six entries stayed visible to contributors and viewers after those pages were closed to them, so clicking one dropped you on the dashboard with no explanation.
- **Billing shortcuts are no longer offered to contributors.** The trial badge, the plan badge, "Top up credits" and the low-credits button all pointed at a billing page that turns contributors away with "Access Denied".
- **Editing a host profile as a contributor now says it is not permitted.** Host profiles are editable by owners and managers, and a contributor is told so rather than being navigated away.
- **The guest portal now names the shows holding your profile** instead of showing "Unknown Workspace", and your appearance count and portal badge are correct.
- **Workspace members without a name now show their email instead of "Unknown User".** Accounts created by accepting an invitation or signing in with a social account often have no name until the person sets one. The account launcher also shows the email you are signed in as.
- **Inviting a guest who has unsubscribed now says so** instead of reporting "Invitation sent" when no email went out.
- **The mobile "Overdue" badge count now keeps up.** The list updated as items passed their scheduled time but the number beside it stayed put until you refreshed.
- **Errors from campaign generation now say what actually went wrong.** A refusal such as running short of credits now names the real reason rather than showing a generic technical error.

## Security
