Text and caption formatting now survives an alias. Bold, italic, code, links
and mentions are stored as entities beside the text and sent back with it, on
the /insert, bare-command and inline paths alike. This works because the text
is re-sent byte-identical, so the offsets the entities carry stay valid — the
earlier comment claiming otherwise was wrong. They go back as entities rather
than re-rendered markup, which avoids escaping and re-parsing content the user
never wrote as markup.
/aliases now lists one line per name with what it holds, so the list says what
each will send:
3 aliases:
/cheer — sticker
/clip — video
/greeting — text
That costs one store read per listed alias, since DocStore has no bulk get and
the kind lives in the document. The reads stop once the message is full, so the
cost is bounded by what fits in one reply rather than by how many aliases exist.
Every reply that names a command or an alias wraps it in <code>, so tapping it
copies something ready to send. The generic usage lines stay plain text: they
contain a literal <name> placeholder that HTML mode would swallow as a tag.
Replying to another bot's message gets its own refusal. Telegram delivers that
reply with the content stripped, so capture finds nothing and the format advice
read as if the wrong kind had been sent. Checked only after capture fails, so
this bot's own messages — which are readable — never reach it.
The alias module registers an inline-query handler, but pollingAllowedUpdates
listed only message and callback_query. Telegram filters getUpdates on its
side, so inline queries were dropped before reaching the bot — the handler
never ran, and the omission left no log line or error to debug from.
Adds a test tying the list to the kinds actually handled, since nothing else
would catch the next such gap.
The module stores nothing: /addsticker takes its pack from STICKER_PACK_NAME
and the set owner from OWNER_ID, and the factory ignores the collection it is
handed. Everything still in the sticker collection is therefore unreachable by
any code path — pack documents keyed by owner ID, "slug:" name reservations and
"pending-delete:" confirmations, all orphaned when the per-user commands were
removed.
InitStore lists and deletes them once per database, guarded by a systemstate
marker in the same shape as the stock and stats migrations. It aborts without
writing the marker so a partial run retries on the next boot, and deletes are
idempotent. A collection that is already empty is the normal case on a fresh
deploy and on the memory backend.
This permanently removes data. Back up the sticker collection before the first
deploy that carries it.
/alias <name> saves a replied message under a name and /insert <name> sends it
back; /aliases lists every name and /unalias deletes one. Every Telegram format
is supported — sticker, photo, GIF, video, video note, audio, voice, document,
plain text — and each is kept as the file_id Telegram already issued, so nothing
is downloaded and an alias survives redeploys. The namespace is global and the
last assignment wins, matching the shared sticker pack; /unalias is open to
anyone for the same reason.
A saved name also works as its own command: /cheer rather than /insert cheer.
This needs two new seams in the module contract. Module.Fallback handles a
/command no module registered, and the dispatcher installs it after every
Command — the bot library returns the first matching handler, so code always
beats a name resolved at runtime, including an alias that shares a command
added in a later build. /alias refuses a name already in the registry for the
same reason, since such an alias would only reach /insert. An unknown command
stays silent: the fallback sees every unrecognised /foo in every chat, so
replying would make typos noisy and would confirm which names exist.
Module.Inline answers inline-mode queries — "@botname <prefix>" from any chat,
filtered by prefix and capped at Telegram's 50 results. Each result is a cached
inline type carrying the stored file_id, so the picker renders real previews
without an upload. Video notes are omitted because Telegram defines no
InlineQueryResultCachedVideoNote and substituting a plain video would change
what was saved. Inline mode must be enabled in BotFather before Telegram
delivers these updates.
Both slots are single-occupancy with conflict detection at Build. Auth.Permits
learns the inline sender so a gated inline handler would not deny everyone.
Build's command indexing and slot claiming move into addCommands/addSingletons,
keeping it under the project's cyclomatic cap.
Also restores the sticker module: /addsticker moves back out of util, which has
no store, into internal/modules/sticker as its only command.
/addsticker becomes a single stateless command in util, writing to one
env-configured set (STICKER_PACK_NAME, default miti99_by_miti99bot).
AddStickerToSet takes the set owner's user ID rather than the caller's, so
nothing is per-user any more: the sticker module's pack records, slug
reservations, pending deletes, per-user locks and its eight other commands are
removed with it.
The pack creates itself on first use. A positive STICKERSET_INVALID from the
add triggers createNewStickerSet owned by OWNER_ID, seeded with the sticker
that triggered it and titled with the slug half of the name; a name that is
occupied but unwritable is reported instead of taken over. The mandatory
"_by_<bot_username>" suffix is Telegram's own proof of authorship, so a
misconfigured pack name is refused offline before any API call. StickerSet
exposes no owner ID, so ownership is only provable when Telegram refuses.
Video, GIF, animation and video-note sources are transcoded to WEBM/VP9 with
ffmpeg: long edge scaled to exactly 512 in either direction, cut to 3s, capped
at 30fps, audio dropped, retried down a CRF ladder until under 256KB. Animated
and video stickers are copied by file_id with no conversion. Sticker format is
per-sticker since Bot API 7.2, so one pack holds all three.
ffmpeg cannot ship in distroless/static and Go has no VP9 encoder, so the
runtime base becomes alpine with apk add ffmpeg. The image grows from roughly
20MB to 213MB, and the transcode holds the single dispatcher worker — bounded
at 20s per encode and a 45s handler deadline for moving sources, against 10s
for stills.
A remote wheel render takes several seconds, during which /wheelofnames
looked unresponsive. Post "Spinning..." first, then let the result take
its place: the GIF replaces it (send-then-delete, since Telegram cannot
edit text into media) and any render or upload failure edits the same
message into the plain text winner. A rejected edit still falls back to a
fresh reply so the chat never stays stuck on "Spinning...".
No placeholder when no renderer is configured — the winner reply is
already immediate there and would only flash.
Adds SendText/EditText/DeleteMessage to chathelper; Reply now delegates
to SendText.
Two ordinary /newpack commands could take over a stranger's pack. The
first probe returns an inconclusive error, which correctly keeps the
reservation so the user can retry - but that turned a fresh claim into a
resumed one and defeated the guard that made adoption conditional.
resolveStaleIntent had a second adopt path that never consulted the
guard at all. Both are reproduced by tests added here.
This is the fourth failure of the same mechanism, and it is structural.
Adoption must prove "this set is mine to finish" from local state, and
local state is what a restart on the in-memory backend erases while the
packs at Telegram survive. With the proof gone, a genuine interrupted
attempt and a stranger naming a public share link are indistinguishable.
Remove adoption entirely. /newpack refuses any name a set already
occupies, and leaves no intent or reservation behind when it does.
A pending record is not evidence of ownership either: anyone can make one
naming any set, and DeleteStickerSet is keyed by set name, which Telegram
authorises for every set this bot created. /delpack therefore clears a
pending record locally and contacts Telegram only for a confirmed one.
The cost is that a crash between creating a set and recording it strands
that set. That is documented rather than mitigated - every mitigation
available is the mechanism that just failed.
Also drop a test whose name claimed to pin the resumed-reservation
distinction but bailed past the code that implements it, rename a delpack
test after the guard that actually stops a foreign presser, and pin
releaseSlug's ownership check and detached read - the latter needed a
context-honouring store, since the in-memory one ignores cancellation and
made the first version of that test vacuous.
Nine commands mirroring the names @Stickers uses: /newpack, /mypack,
/addsticker, /delsticker, /editsticker, /ordersticker, /setpackicon,
/renamepack and /delpack, plus a confirm callback for the destructive
one. Sources are replied stickers, photos or image documents; photos are
downloaded, resampled to 512px and re-uploaded.
One pack per user, keyed by owner id. Creating a pack is the only
operation here that makes a durable, publicly linkable object on a user's
behalf, so it is built around proving ownership rather than assuming it:
- A name is claimed globally and create-only before Telegram is called.
A pending record alone proves only that a caller *asked* for a name,
which is exactly what someone naming a victim's public slug also does.
- Adopting an existing set additionally requires that the claim predates
this invocation. The claim lives in our store and the pack lives at
Telegram, so a wiped store would otherwise make every pack adoptable.
- Names are released only on positive evidence that no pack stands behind
them, never on a generic failure, so a transient error cannot hand a
live name to the next caller.
- Ownership refusals are byte-identical across failure modes, so they
cannot be used to probe which sets exist.
Error classification is positive-only throughout: "the set is gone" and
"nothing was created" are each proven from a specific Telegram response,
never inferred from an error. Post-action commits run on a context
detached from the request so a shutdown mid-handler cannot lose the
record of something Telegram already did.
Enabled explicitly via MODULES rather than by default.
- /duonglich appends a nhuan hint when the queried month is also that
lunar year's leap month and the exact leap date exists
- both commands append a caveat when the result falls in a lunar month
starting or ending on one of the seven razor-edge boundaries from
2072 on (new moon within ~2 minutes of UTC+7 midnight)
- freeze the verified 1800-2199 month structure as golden testdata so
a self-consistent engine change cannot silently shift boundaries
- close known-issues open questions 1 and 2
All eight plans are completed or cancelled and their behavior is now
described in README. Three reports contradicted shipped code: one
recommended keeping the lolesports gql client over PandaScore, two
analyzed the transport that migration removed. The rest is
pre-implementation research whose conclusions live in the code.
Drop the conventions reference to the deleted schema research.
README omitted /lol_subscribe and /lol_unsubscribe, called gold opt-in
though an empty MODULES loads every catalog module, and left out both
the amlich 1800-2199 bound and the lol module's PandaScore token. The
gold factory comment repeated the same opt-in claim.
Promote the lunar algorithm decision record and known-issue list into
docs/ so they survive cleanups of plans/.
Swap the lol module upstream from the lolesports.com gql persisted-query
client to PandaScore REST (/lol/matches, Bearer LOL_PANDASCORE_TOKEN,
free tier 1000 req/h). The gql transport broke whenever Riot redeployed
their frontend; PandaScore is a stable versioned contract.
ScheduleEvent, formatters, cron, and the bson cache shape are unchanged:
only the transport and response mapping moved. PandaScore league slugs
canonicalize to the existing major-league allowlist; results join to
opponents by team_id so reversed arrays cannot swap scores; outcomes are
declared only once upstream commits a winner, preserving the
score-pending rendering. A still-full final page now logs
lol_page_budget_exhausted and the live page budget covers 500 raw
matches per window.
Missing token short-circuits with lol_token_missing before any upstream
call; the 60-minute stale cache still covers outages. Document the new
env var and cancel the superseded Leaguepedia score-enrichment plan.
Add the monkeyd module, which crawls a novel and sends the rendered PDF back
as a Telegram document. Crawling and rendering come from the monkeyd-crawler
submodule, resolved through a go.mod replace directive.
The command is admin-only and restricted to monkeydd.com: one run makes
hundreds of outbound requests over minutes, and the extractor only understands
that site. Exports run one at a time and on a detached goroutine, because
handlers are dispatched synchronously and an inline crawl would block every
other command.
The runtime image gains DejaVuSans; font discovery probes system paths and the
distroless base ships none, so PDF rendering would otherwise fail in
production. CI checks out submodules and the builder copies the submodule
go.mod before go mod download, which needs it to resolve the build list.
The 2026 tournament has ended, so the schedule and daily digest commands
have no upcoming matches to report. Drops the module, its catalog entry,
command menu entries, and the WC_FOOTBALL_DATA_TOKEN env var.
Stored subscriber and match-cache documents are left in place.
