Implementation details

Endpoint usage in frontend service

The current podcastApi.ts directly calls these podcast routes for analysis, research, script, audio, image, video, avatar, and project workflows.

Known gap:

• cancelTask() is a placeholder that posts to /api/story/task/{taskId}/cancel rather than a dedicated podcast route.

Request/response model notes

At a high level:

• Script endpoints exchange idea, duration_minutes, speakers, and optional research/analysis/bible context.
• Audio endpoints exchange scene identifiers, text, and voice/rendering options.
• Video endpoints exchange scene identifiers plus audio_url and optional image/prompt context.
• Project endpoints exchange project-level state payloads suitable for restoring workflow progress.
