Interview with J-10C pilots from PAF.

Just realized that since the designation is Cobra the squad leader is technically Cobra Commander…

Is the PLAAF still inducting new J-10C fighters into its units or is the J-10 strictly for exports now?

That's actually not 100% confirmed! We have rumours stating the production line has been transferred from CAC to GAIG but we haven't seen any J-10C there yet.
This however - at least IMO - makes only sense if you still have a decent order-backlog either for the PLAAF or export customers and again based on my understanding, the 20 J-10CEs for Pakistan have been delivered, no additional ones (even if rumoured quite often) have been confirmed and NONE of the other potential customers are for sure. Maybe Egypt + an unknown one the most likely ones (I think Orca hinted something like that!) but overall it is very much unknown.
