## MODIFIED Requirements

### Requirement: Fallback behavior remains context-aware first
The system SHALL apply stricter relevance guardrails before accepting summary images for finance/market stories.

#### Scenario: Finance-story relevance guard
- **WHEN** article topic contains finance/market terms (for example stocks, shares, plunge, earnings)
- **THEN** image selection rejects obviously unrelated animal/portrait outcomes
- **AND** system retries with finance-safe query refinements before final fallback

#### Scenario: Guarded fallback remains deterministic
- **WHEN** provider chain cannot return a relevant finance-safe image
- **THEN** system uses deterministic generic fallback that is topic-safe
- **AND** avoids unrelated imagery classes flagged by guardrails
