A featured image on every post that has none
Find the posts without a featured image and give each one, from your own media library first and from free Unsplash photos for the rest.

Find which of my last [30] published posts have no featured image. For each, look in my media library for a picture that fits; if none does, search free photos and show me two options. Give me a table: post, proposed image, and whether it comes from my library or is a free photo. Wait for me to choose, then set them as featured images.

What happens
- The AI app reads your recent posts and notes which have no featured image.
- It looks in your media library first, then searches free photos for the posts still without one.
- Free photos you pick are added to your media library with alt text and the photographer credited in the caption.
- Setting the featured image on a live post waits for your approval in SAR. The previous version is kept, so you can undo it for 30 days.
