improvement(buffer): explicit mediaType override instead of guessing on ambiguous media by waleedlatif1 · Pull Request #5642 · simstudioai/sim

waleedlatif1 · 2026-07-13T19:55:10Z

Summary

Follow-up to feat(buffer): add Buffer integration with posts, channels, and ideas #5637 (merged before this landed): addresses Greptile's final P1 about silent media-type guessing
Adds a mediaType param (auto | image | video, default auto) to buffer_create_post / buffer_edit_post, the route contract, and the block (advanced dropdown)
In auto mode, when the MIME type, URL extension, and DNS-pinned HEAD probe are all inconclusive, the route now returns a clear 400 asking for an explicit mediaType instead of defaulting the asset to image

PR Summary

Medium Risk
Changes media classification (may break ambiguous URLs that silently worked as images) and broadens presigned URL lifetime for Buffer only; file-utils behavior for keyed uploads is stricter about reminting URLs.

Overview
Adds mediaType (auto | image | video, default auto) to Buffer create/edit post flows—API contracts, routes, tools, block advanced UI, and docs—so callers can force attachment kind when MIME, extension, and HEAD probe are inconclusive. Auto mode no longer guesses image; the route returns a 400 with a clear message to set mediaType explicitly.

For scheduled/queued posts, Buffer media resolution now requests 7-day presigned URLs (via configurable presignExpirySeconds on file resolution), and stored files with a key always get a freshly minted presign at that TTL instead of reusing possibly stale embedded URLs. Docs note that uploads are link-valid for 7 days and public URLs are better for longer schedules.

Greptile Summary

This PR adds explicit Buffer media type handling for ambiguous attachments. The main changes are:

mediaType is exposed on the Buffer create and edit tools.
Create and edit routes forward mediaType into media resolution.
Explicit image and video values skip auto-detection.
Ambiguous auto media now returns a clear request error.
Stored Buffer media URLs use a longer presign window.

Confidence Score: 5/5

This looks safe to merge.

No blocking issues found in the changed code.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
apps/sim/app/api/tools/buffer/create-post/route.ts	The create route now forwards the validated media type into the shared Buffer mutation helper.
apps/sim/app/api/tools/buffer/edit-post/route.ts	The edit route now forwards the validated media type into the shared Buffer mutation helper.
apps/sim/app/api/tools/buffer/server-utils.ts	Media resolution now honors explicit attachment types, rejects inconclusive auto-detection, and uses longer presigned links for Buffer media.
apps/sim/lib/api/contracts/tools/buffer.ts	The shared Buffer contract now accepts `auto`, `image`, and `video` media type values.
apps/sim/lib/uploads/utils/file-utils.server.ts	Stored file URL resolution now supports caller-provided presign expiry values.
apps/sim/tools/buffer/create_post.ts	The create tool now exposes and sends the media type option.
apps/sim/tools/buffer/edit_post.ts	The edit tool now exposes and sends the media type option.
apps/sim/tools/buffer/types.ts	Buffer create and edit parameter types now include the media type option.
apps/sim/blocks/blocks/buffer.ts	The Buffer block now includes an advanced media type dropdown.
apps/docs/content/docs/en/integrations/buffer.mdx	The Buffer docs now describe the media type option and uploaded media link lifetime.

Greptile Summary

This PR adds Buffer as a social scheduling integration. The main changes are:

New Buffer block, tool registry entries, icons, and docs.
New Buffer GraphQL tool implementations for posts, channels, ideas, and account data.
New create/edit post API routes with media resolution and explicit mediaType support.
Updated API validation contracts for Buffer post mutations.

Confidence Score: 4/5

The Buffer create/edit media path needs a fix before merging.

Explicit image/video overrides are validated and sent by the tools.
The create and edit routes drop that value before calling the media resolver.
Ambiguous media can still fail with the new error even when callers provide the override.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
apps/sim/app/api/tools/buffer/create-post/route.ts	Adds a contract-bound create route, but drops the validated `mediaType` before media resolution.
apps/sim/app/api/tools/buffer/edit-post/route.ts	Adds a contract-bound edit route, but drops the validated `mediaType` before media replacement.
apps/sim/app/api/tools/buffer/server-utils.ts	Adds Buffer post mutation forwarding and media auto-detection with support for explicit image/video overrides.
apps/sim/blocks/blocks/buffer.ts	Adds the Buffer block definition, operations, media fields, templates, and parameter mapping.
apps/sim/lib/api/contracts/tools/buffer.ts	Adds shared create/edit post route contracts with scheduling and media validation.
apps/sim/tools/buffer/create_post.ts	Adds the create-post tool and sends Buffer create requests through the internal route.
apps/sim/tools/buffer/edit_post.ts	Adds the edit-post tool and sends Buffer edit requests through the internal route.
apps/sim/tools/buffer/types.ts	Adds shared Buffer GraphQL selections, types, response mapping, and error handling helpers.
