## Features Implemented ✅

### 1. WordPress Compatibility
- ✅ Minimum WordPress 6.2, PHP 8.0+
- ✅ Works with Classic and Block Editor (Gutenberg)
- ✅ Multisite compatible
- ✅ Proper activation/deactivation hooks

### 2. Admin Settings (Options Page)
- ✅ API Key, API Secret, Brand ID fields
- ✅ Sandbox mode toggle
- ✅ Summary length configuration
- ✅ "Show teaser to search engines" option
- ✅ Archive on delete setting
- ✅ Stored via WordPress Settings API
- ✅ Capability: `manage_options`
- ✅ Validation/sanitization and nonces
- ✅ Test connection functionality

### 3. Post ↔ RecastPay Product Sync
- ✅ Automatic sync on post create/update/publish
- ✅ `externalProductId` = WP post ID
- ✅ Title, URL, description mapping
- ✅ Store Product ID in post meta
- ✅ Archive products on delete (optional)
- ✅ Post sidebar panel (Gutenberg)
- ✅ Classic meta box with sync status
- ✅ "Resync now" button with AJAX

### 4. Frontend Behavior
- ✅ Replace full content with summary for unentitled users
- ✅ Summary from `get_the_excerpt()` or first N words
- ✅ `recast-browser` paywall widget integration
- ✅ Graceful no-JS fallback
- ✅ Search engine preview option (carefully implemented)
- ✅ Shortcode `[recast_paywall]...[/recast_paywall]`
- ✅ Gutenberg block for section-level gating

### 5. Entitlement Checks (Server-side)
- ✅ Server checks RecastPay API for access using GET /vendor/products/access
- ✅ `externalUserId` mapping (WordPress user ID or email)
- ✅ `externalProductId` = WP post ID
- ✅ PHP filter `recast_paywall_external_user_id`
- ✅ Cache entitlement decisions (5-minute TTL)
- ✅ Never expose API credentials client-side

### 6. REST/AJAX Endpoints
- ✅ Namespaced REST routes under `recast-paywall/v1`
- ✅ `GET /entitlement?post={id}` - returns entitled/unentitled
- ✅ `POST /sync` - resync a post (admin-only)
- ✅ Nonces, capability checks, and rate limiting

### 7. Webhooks
- ✅ Endpoint to receive Recast webhooks
- ✅ Invalidate cached entitlements
- ✅ Update stored Inventory Item data
- ✅ Verify webhook signatures

### 8. Data Model
- ✅ Single array option `recast_paywall_settings` (autoload=no)
- ✅ Post meta keys:
  - `_recast_inventory_item_id` (string)
  - `_recast_last_synced_at` (datetime)
  - `_recast_paywall_enabled` (boolean)
- ✅ Minimal logging (errors only)
- ✅ Filterable error handler

### 9. Security & Best Practices
- ✅ Nonces on all forms and actions
- ✅ Capability checks for admin actions
- ✅ Escape, sanitize, and validate everything
- ✅ WP HTTP API for outbound requests
- ✅ Timeouts and circuit breaker
- ✅ Avoid leaking secrets to HTML/JS
- ✅ Respect WP caching plugins
- ✅ Vary header strategy

### 10. Performance
- ✅ Lazy-load `recast-browser` only when needed
- ✅ Entitlement decisions cached
- ✅ Soft-fail to summary on API failures
- ✅ Progressive enhancement
