Shareable draft preview links

jedmund requested to merge feature/draft-preview into fix/video-render-caption

Created by: jedmund

Summary

  • HMAC-signed preview tokens with 24h TTL for sharing unpublished content
  • New /api/preview/generate endpoint (admin-only) returns a signed preview URL
  • New /api/projects/by-slug/[slug] public endpoint with preview token support
  • Posts by-slug endpoint accepts ?preview=TOKEN to bypass publish check
  • Page loaders forward preview params to API calls
  • "Copy preview link" action in StatusDropdown when content is in draft status

Test plan

  • Create a draft post → use dropdown to copy preview link → open in incognito → verify post renders
  • Verify expired/tampered tokens return 404
  • Verify "Copy preview link" only appears for drafts, not published posts
  • Test project preview via /work/[slug]?preview=TOKEN
