Add Mattermost as a supported messaging channel with bot API and WebSocket integration. Includes channel state tracking (tint, summary, details), multi-account support, and delivery target routing. Update documentation and tests to include Mattermost alongside existing channels.
* feat(sessions): add channelIdleMinutes config for per-channel session idle durations
Add new `channelIdleMinutes` config option to allow different session idle
timeouts per channel. For example, Discord sessions can now be configured
to last 7 days (10080 minutes) while other channels use shorter defaults.
Config example:
sessions:
channelIdleMinutes:
discord: 10080 # 7 days
The channel-specific idle is passed as idleMinutesOverride to the existing
resolveSessionResetPolicy, integrating cleanly with the new reset policy
architecture.
* fix
* feat: add per-channel session reset overrides (#1353) (thanks @cash-echo-bot)

Support ${VAR_NAME} syntax in any config string value, substituted at
config load time. Useful for referencing API keys and secrets from
environment variables without hardcoding them in the config file.
- Only uppercase env vars matched: [A-Z_][A-Z0-9_]*
- Missing/empty env vars throw MissingEnvVarError with path context
- Escape with $${VAR} to output literal ${VAR}
- Works with $include (included files also get substitution)
Closes#1009
* feat(whatsapp): add debounceMs for batching rapid messages
Add a `debounceMs` configuration option to WhatsApp channel settings
that batches rapid consecutive messages from the same sender into a
single response. This prevents triggering separate agent runs for
each message when a user sends multiple short messages in quick
succession (e.g., "Hey!", "how are you?", "I was wondering...").
Changes:
- Add `debounceMs` config to WhatsAppConfig and WhatsAppAccountConfig
- Implement message buffering in `monitorWebInbox` with:
- Map-based buffer keyed by sender (DM) or chat ID (groups)
- Debounce timer that resets on each new message
- Message combination with newline separator
- Single message optimization (no modification if only one message)
- Wire `debounceMs` through account resolution and monitor tuning
- Add UI hints and schema documentation
Usage example:
{
"channels": {
"whatsapp": {
"debounceMs": 5000 // 5 second window
}
}
}
Default behavior: `debounceMs: 0` (disabled by default)
Verified: All existing tests pass (3204 tests), TypeScript compilation
succeeds with no errors.
Implemented with assistance from AI coding tools.
Closes#967

Adds support for template variables in `messages.responsePrefix` that
resolve dynamically at runtime with the actual model used (including
after fallback).
Supported variables (case-insensitive):
- {model} - short model name (e.g., "claude-opus-4-5", "gpt-4o")
- {modelFull} - full model identifier (e.g., "anthropic/claude-opus-4-5")
- {provider} - provider name (e.g., "anthropic", "openai")
- {thinkingLevel} or {think} - thinking level ("high", "low", "off")
- {identity.name} or {identityName} - agent identity name
Example: "[{model} | think:{thinkingLevel}]" → "[claude-opus-4-5 | think:high]"
Variables show the actual model used after fallback, not the intended
model. Unresolved variables remain as literal text.
Implementation:
- New module: src/auto-reply/reply/response-prefix-template.ts
- Template interpolation in normalize-reply.ts via context provider
- onModelSelected callback in agent-runner-execution.ts
- Updated all 6 provider message handlers (web, signal, discord,
telegram, slack, imessage)
- 27 unit tests covering all variables and edge cases
- Documentation in docs/gateway/configuration.md and JSDoc
Fixes#923
Adds support for splitting clawdbot.json into multiple files using the
$include directive. This enables:
- Single file includes: { "$include": "./agents.json5" }
- Multiple file merging: { "$include": ["./a.json5", "./b.json5"] }
- Nested includes (up to 10 levels deep)
- Sibling key merging with includes
Features:
- Relative paths resolved from including file
- Absolute paths supported
- Circular include detection
- Clear error messages with resolved paths
Use case: Per-client agent configs for isolated sandboxed environments
(e.g., legal case management with strict data separation).
