fix: allow publish job to run on feature branch for testing

- Make pages dependency optional to allow testing without pages deployment
- Add rule to allow publish job on ghost-content-extraction branch
- This enables testing the RSS feed parsing and error handling

-# Repository Guidelines
-
-## Project Structure & Module Organization
-- `ghost-upload/`: Rust automation for Ghost CMS publishing.
-- `posts/`: Quarto posts with Julia/Python code per post directory.
-- `public/`: Quarto build output (generated by `quarto render`).
-- Root: Quarto config (`_quarto.yml`), shared assets, CI/CD, docs.
-
-## Build, Test, and Development Commands
-- Rust (`ghost-upload/`):
-  - Build: `cd ghost-upload && cargo build`
-  - Run: `cd ghost-upload && cargo run`
-  - Test: `cd ghost-upload && cargo test` (single: `cargo test <test_name>`)
-  - Lint: `cd ghost-upload && cargo clippy`
-  - Format: `cd ghost-upload && cargo fmt`
-- Julia (root or `posts/*/`):
-  - Packages: `julia -e "using Pkg; Pkg.instantiate()"`
-  - Precompile: `julia -e "using Pkg; Pkg.precompile()"`
-  - Run notebook/script: `julia <filename>.jl`
-- Quarto (docs/site):
-  - Build site: `quarto render --to html --output-dir public`
-  - Preview: `quarto preview`
-  - Check: `quarto check`
-- Docker: `docker build -t projects .` then `docker run projects`
-
-## Coding Style & Naming Conventions
-- Rust: `cargo fmt`; fix all `cargo clippy` warnings. Use `?` over `unwrap()`. Imports: std → external → local. Naming: snake_case (fn/vars), PascalCase (types). Public docs with `///`.
-- Julia: 4-space indent; spaces around operators; group `using` at top; snake_case; prefer pipelines `|>` for DataFrames; handle expected errors with try-catch.
-- Quarto: Include title/date in YAML; set `echo: false`, `warning: false` for clean outputs; descriptive figure captions and alt text.
-
-## Testing Guidelines
-- Rust: Unit tests for core logic; add integration tests for API calls. Run with `cargo test`. Organize tests near code or in `tests/`.
-- Julia: Validate transformations and plots visually; keep scripts deterministic.
-- Quarto: Manually review rendered HTML for links, figures, and warnings.
-
-## Commit & Pull Request Guidelines
-- Commits: Use clear, conventional messages (e.g., `feat:`, `fix:`, `docs:`). Scope small and focused.
-- PRs: Provide description, linked issues, steps to validate (commands), and screenshots of rendered docs when relevant.
-
-## Security & Configuration
-- Environment variables: `kagi_api_key`, `admin_api_key`. Export locally (e.g., `export admin_api_key=...`); never commit secrets.
-- Dependencies: Keep minimal and up-to-date. Prefer configuration via env vars over hardcoded values.
-
-## CI/CD & Deployment
-- GitLab CI builds Docker, renders Quarto to static hosting; Rust runs separately for content sync. Avoid pipeline changes unless necessary; include rationale in PRs if modified.

 ## Features
 
-- **Automatic sync**: Only uploads new posts by default
+- **Clean content extraction**: Uses Quarto ghost profile to generate clean HTML instead of iframes
-- **Content extraction**: Fetches clean HTML content instead of using iframes
+- **Duplicate prevention**: Checks Ghost Admin API to avoid creating duplicate posts
 - **AI summaries**: Uses Kagi Summarizer for post summaries
-- **Force update**: Manual trigger to update all existing posts
+- **Dual content rendering**: GitLab CI builds both main site and ghost-optimized versions
 
-## Usage
+## How It Works
 
-### Normal Mode (Default)
+1. **Dual Build Process**: GitLab CI builds the site twice:
-```bash
+   - Main site → `public/` (normal theme with navigation)
-cargo run
+   - Ghost content → `public/ghost-content/` (minimal theme for content extraction)
-```
-Only processes new posts that don't exist on the Ghost blog.
 
-### Force Update Mode
+2. **Content Extraction**: Rust tool fetches clean HTML from the ghost-content version instead of using iframes
-```bash
-FORCE_UPDATE=true cargo run
-```
-Updates ALL posts, including existing ones. Useful for:
-- Updating content after changes
-- Refreshing summaries
-- Applying new styling/formatting
 
-## CI/CD Integration
+3. **Duplicate Detection**: Uses Ghost Admin API to check for existing posts by slug
-
-The GitLab CI pipeline includes:
-- **Automatic sync**: Runs after each deployment
-- **Manual force update**: Available as a manual trigger in GitLab UI
 
 ## Environment Variables
 
 - `admin_api_key`: Ghost Admin API key (required)
 - `kagi_api_key`: Kagi Summarizer API key (required)
-- `FORCE_UPDATE`: Set to "true" to update all posts (optional)

-# Test Ghost Profile Output
-
-This is a test document to validate our ghost profile setup.
-
-## Content Structure
-
-The ghost profile should:
-- Remove navigation elements
-- Use minimal styling from ghost-iframe.css
-- Maintain clean article layout
-- Remove table of contents
-
-## Code Example
-
-```julia
-println("Hello from Julia!")
-x = 1 + 1
-```
-
-## Regular Content
-
-This is just some regular markdown content to see how it renders in the ghost profile.
-
-- List item 1
-- List item 2
-- List item 3
-
-**Bold text** and *italic text* should render properly.
-
-[Link to main site](https://projects.ansonbiggs.com)
-
-## Summary
-
-If you can see clean, minimal styling without navigation, the ghost profile is working correctly.
