Start Daily Automations: Runs polls, trivia, On This Day, economic data, and social posts. Does NOT generate stories (use "Generate Today's Articles" for that).

Generate Today's Articles: Generates 2-3 deeply researched stories with 6-8 sources each, 350-400 word excerpts, and comprehensive analysis. Quality over quantity approach.

Generate AI Podcast: Creates a short AI-narrated podcast based on today's top news story.

Generate Daily Poll: Creates new daily poll question based on current political issues using AI.

Update 'On This Day': Manually refreshes the historical events for the homepage widget.

Fetch Real Social Posts: Fetches real posts from Reddit (r/politics) and X/Twitter, uses AI to analyze each post for its trending topic and political viewpoint, groups posts by topic, then generates sentiment analysis. Note: Social media APIs have rate limits - if you see errors, wait 5-10 minutes before retrying.

Refresh Economic Data: Updates all economic graphs and FRED data including GDP, CPI, unemployment, interest rates, and other key economic indicators.

Create Email Templates: Generates default daily and weekly newsletter templates that you can then customize.

Test Perplexity API: Verifies if the Perplexity API key is correctly configured and working.

Run System Diagnostics: Initiates a series of tests to check the health and configuration of core system components, such as API keys, database connections, and essential services.
