v0.0.33 — closing the cheap-edit loop

Highlights

Follow-up to 0.0.32 that closes the last two gaps between "locate a block cheaply" and "modify it cheaply". The three-step cheap-edit loop now works end-to-end.

What's in 0.0.33

• PR #158 — blocks/get-post-blocks gains three optional inputs:
  Reading one block's markup used to require pulling the whole tree — ~23K tokens on a 76 KB post. Now it's a few hundred bytes.
  • path: int[] — scope to a subtree (same raw parse_blocks() index scheme as add-block / update-post-block / remove-block, so paths interchange)
  • depth: integer — bound descent (-1 unlimited, 0 subtree root only, N below)
  • include_html: boolean — default true for backwards-compat; when false, strips innerHTML + innerContent from every returned node
• PR #159 — return_content: false default on blocks/add-block + blocks/update-post-block. Parity with the six content writers (0.0.32 PR #152) and nine block-editor writers (PR #153). Response's block object strips innerHTML, innerContent, and innerBlocks; content_bytes reports the saved size. Container blocks (columns, cover, group) previously echoed their entire innerBlocks subtree — now they don't unless the caller passes return_content: true.

The cheap-edit loop now works end-to-end

1. Locate — blocks/outline-post-blocks → paths + text previews, no content. ~kilobytes.
2. Read current markup of one block — blocks/get-post-blocks {path, depth: 0} → single block, not the whole tree. ~hundreds of bytes.
3. Write — blocks/update-post-block {path, return_content: false} → small envelope back, no echo.

Test status

• Full suite 2196 / 2196 passing (+31 vs 0.0.32)
• PHPCS + PHPStan level 8 clean on every changed file
• Live MCP smoke verified for all four new inputs on blocks/get-post-blocks (scoped read, content-strip, invalid_path error envelope, backwards-compat call with just post_id) plus both return_content: false writers

Breaking notes for existing callers

• Callers reading response.block.innerHTML on blocks/add-block or blocks/update-post-block must pass return_content: true explicitly. Container blocks reading response.block.innerBlocks also need the flag.
• No other callers affected. blocks/get-post-blocks remains byte-identical for callers passing only post_id.
