jimandClaude Opus 5 f41957fd2f feat(collect): let --force ignore the re-collect cooldown
--collect 1 <blog> returned an empty worklist whenever the periodic
re-queue branch was still inside its 3-day window, with no way to ask
for the re-collect early. GetPosts now composes that age predicate
conditionally, and the existing global --force flag - already "ignore
cooldown" for --likes - drives it.

Only the age gate drops: NotFound = 0, the IsActive filter and the blog
scoping still apply. The flag is a no-op for mode 0, which re-collects
every post regardless, and says so rather than pretending to act.

# AI Development Instructions for URLNotesGrabberCORE
This document provides essential context for AI agents working with URLNotesGrabberCORE, a .NET Core application designed to process and analyze blog notes and interactions.
## Project Architecture
### Core Components
- **Program.cs**: Entry point and command handler for various operations (parsing, testing, collecting notes)
- **DataAccess.cs**: SQLite database operations for storing blog and note data
- **ResponseNotes.cs**: Data models for API responses
- **appsettings.json**: Configuration for paths and application settings
### Data Flow
1. Input text files are processed from configured input path
2. Blog data is extracted and stored in SQLite database
3. API calls collect notes/interactions for each blog post
4. Results are written to configured output paths
## Key Development Workflows
### Building and Running
```powershell
dotnet build
dotnet run # Process all files in input directory
dotnet run -- --parse [blogname] # Process specific blog
dotnet run -- --test [blogname] [postID] # Test API for specific post
```
### Command-Line Interface
- `--parse [blogname]`: Parse text files for specific blog
- `--test [blogname] [postID]`: Test API note collection
- `--posts`: Export post blogs to file
- `--blogs`: Export blog list to file
- `--collect [0|1] [datetime] [blogname]`: Collect notes for posts in DB. Optional `blogname` restricts the run to one blog (exact match), e.g. `--collect 1 zomb-eh`. Add `--force` to ignore the periodic re-collect cooldown so already-collected posts are re-queued immediately (mode 1 only)
- `--blogsR`: Export reply blogs to file
- `--blogsO [start] [stop]`: Export blogs within range
## Project Conventions
### Configuration
- All paths and settings are managed in `appsettings.json`
- Command-line args override config file settings
- SQLite database is used for persistent storage
### API Integration
- Uses RestSharp for API calls with OAuth authentication
- Rate limiting implemented via `System.Threading.RateLimiting`
- Resilient HTTP handling with `Microsoft.Extensions.Http.Resilience`
### Data Models
- `ReblogRecord`: Core data structure for blog post information
- `Note`: Represents interaction data from API responses
- Default field values are "." (period) to handle null cases
## Integration Points
- SQLite Database: Primary data store (`System.Data.SQLite`)
- REST API: External blog platform API (OAuth authentication)
- File System: Input/Output for text file processing
