An AI content review app built with Next.js, OpenAI, and Posthook. AI generates drafts, Posthook schedules reminders and expirations — reviewers approve, reject, or snooze before time runs out.
Live at: nextjs-starter.posthook.io
- Create a review task — AI generates a draft, Posthook schedules a reminder and expiration
- Reminder fires — webhook delivers, task status changes to "reminded"
- Expiration fires — if no one acted, the task auto-expires
- Approve / Reject / Snooze — human actions; pending hooks self-disarm via state verification
- AI content generation — OpenAI with graceful fallback to simulated drafts
- Webhook handlers — one route per hook type, each verifying HMAC signatures
- Task state machine — schedule-first ordering, conditional updates, epoch-based snooze
- Interactive dashboard — shadcn/ui with live countdowns, activity feed, real-time updates
- Session isolation — each visitor gets their own sandbox (30-min TTL)
- Seeded data — 3 pre-created tasks in different states on first visit
