We're consuming from LAC at the service (PCS) level, not client-side, and afaict it doesn't explicitly care about Last-Modified, so as long as the underlying Node network layer handles this correctly, it should be fine.

Thanks @kevinbazira!
How does this affect the API that the app will use to fetch the audio and vtt contents? (i.e. resolve a page title into the audio and vtt URLs)
I assume the v0 api endpoint (https://wiki-tts.toolforge.org/audio/...) is no longer correct?

@Dbrant I was pleasantly surprised with all the images!
How did you balance preferencing images for the suggestions vs keeping it fresh each day? If there are no new articles with images availalbe, will users see the same 4 again, or will it start to bring in new articles without images

Dbrant added a comment to T432552: Make GitHubPRBot output more useful.

There isn't really a codebase; This bot simply provides an API key for use with GitHub Actions to post messages on tasks:

(unless we consider the GitHub Action to be the codebase)

@Dbrant hey! From @Sucheta-Salgaonkar-WMF :

we should probably separate the content selection path from the end-to-end implementation path - so it's actually probably better for your team to use the list of EN featured articles rather than the csv from that ticket
