What this adds

The 1.0 flagship announcement for the Horizon UI AI Assistant, plus its homepage highlight.

  • Blog post — EN + CN (content/blog/… + content/zh/…): "Meet Horizon UI · The AI Assistant: Ask Your Observability Data in Plain Language". A standalone new chapter of the completed 17/17 series, with a lead video and inline figures. Covers: answers built from real widgets (charts, topology, traces, logs, …), how it stays grounded in live data + your layer config, guided root-cause, read-only + human-approved profiling, bring-your-own-LLM (vendor-neutral, no frontier model required), and the safety model.
  • Homepage (content/_index.html + assets/scss/_custom_home.scss): an AI-Assistant highlight paired with the 3D map as alternating (zigzag) rows — media + copy, with the click-to-play video and a "bring your own LLM" callout.
  • layouts/shortcodes/video.html: a small self-hosted {{</* video */>}} shortcode (Markdown strips raw HTML, so a shortcode is the clean route to a poster-first, click-to-play <video>).
  • Assets (static/screenshots/horizon-1.0/ + content/images/home/): the video (a 3× screen capture, 1.2 MB) and stills.

🚧 Hold for the 1.0 launch — draft PR

Both posts are draft: true, but the homepage highlight is not draft-gated — merging puts the AI section on the live homepage and makes the "Meet Horizon UI" button point at the still-draft post. So this is opened as a draft PR; mark it ready and merge when OAP 11 + Horizon UI 1.0 ship.

Pre-merge checklist

  • Flip draft: true → false in the EN and CN posts, and set the real publish date.
  • Capture the 2 remaining figures — the profiling decision card and the enable/config state — per static/screenshots/horizon-1.0/CAPTURE-CHECKLIST.md, and remove the <!-- FIGURE TO CAPTURE --> comments.
  • Confirm /docs/skywalking-horizon-ui/next/operate/ai-assistant/ resolves on the built site (the doc is merged to main).
  • (Optional) decide whether to soften the homepage "bring your own LLM" model naming (DeepSeek / Claude Sonnet) to match the post's more generic wording.

Accuracy

The post was fact-checked against the shipped docs/operate/ai-assistant.md and the AI source on main. That pass caught and removed a documented-but-cut "bring your own key" playground feature (and its security claims), corrected the launcher behavior (shows for all users with a read-only "ask your administrator" notice) and the pod-logs behavior (a static result, not a live tail), and expanded the inline-view coverage (traces incl. Zipkin, logs, deployment, instance map, API dependency, browser errors).

New 1.0 flagship announcement (draft until the OAP 11 + Horizon 1.0 launch):

- content/blog + content/zh: "Meet Horizon UI · The AI Assistant" post, EN + CN,
  with a lead video and inline figures.
- content/_index.html + assets/scss/_custom_home.scss: homepage AI-Assistant
  highlight, paired with the 3D map as alternating (zigzag) rows.
- layouts/shortcodes/video.html: small self-hosted <video> shortcode.
- static/screenshots/horizon-1.0 + content/images/home: video (3x screen capture)
  and stills.

Both posts are draft: true and the homepage "Meet Horizon UI" link points at the
post, so this is intended to merge at the 1.0 launch (see the PR checklist).
