openab-0.7.8-beta.7

A lightweight, secure, cloud-native ACP harness that bridges Discord and any ACP-compatible coding CLI.

Version Info

• Chart Version: 0.7.8-beta.7
• App Version: 0.7.8-beta.7

What's Changed since beta.6

🚀 Features

• feat(discord): multibot-mentions mode — new allow_user_messages mode that combines the best of involved and mentions: natural conversation in single-bot threads, @mention required in multi-bot threads. Recommended for multi-bot deployments. (#464, closes #463)
• feat(discord): bot turn limits (soft + hard) — two-layer protection against runaway bot-to-bot mention loops (#467, closes #466):
  • Soft limit (max_bot_turns, default 10): pauses bot-to-bot conversation until a human replies
  • Hard limit (100, not configurable): permanently stops bot-to-bot conversation in a thread

⚡ Performance

• perf(discord): eager multibot detection — detect multi-bot threads from msg.author without fetching message history, reducing API calls (4e8d9f2)

openab-0.7.8-beta.6

A lightweight, secure, cloud-native ACP harness that bridges Discord and any ACP-compatible coding CLI.

Version Info

• Chart Version: 0.7.8-beta.6
• App Version: 0.7.8-beta.6

What's Changed since beta.5

🚀 Features

• feat(discord): preserve user mention UIDs for LLM mention-back — other-user mentions are now sent to the agent as <@UID> instead of being stripped, enabling the LLM to mention users back in replies (#461, closes #460)
• feat: add tini as init process — all Dockerfiles now use tini for proper signal handling and zombie reaping (#449)

🔧 CI / Workflows

• Add hourly needs-rebase label workflow (#450)
• Add stale pending-contributor → closing-soon workflow (#452)
• Add issue lifecycle workflows: pending-maintainer flip, stale → closing-soon, auto-close (#453)

📖 Documentation

• Rename discord-bot-howto.md → discord.md and extend with full configuration guide covering mention gating, bot-to-bot messaging, thread behavior, and multi-bot setup (#458)

openab-0.7.8-beta.4

What's Changed since 0.7.8-beta.2

✨ Features

• Conditional streaming for Slack — streaming edit ("…" → live updates) when allow_bot_messages = "off" (default); send-once when "mentions" / "all" to protect bot-to-bot communication (#420)
• Per-thread serialization (Slack) — KeyedAsyncQueue ensures same-thread messages are processed in FIFO order; different threads run in parallel (#420)
• thread_id in SenderContext — Slack populates thread_ts so downstream agents can reply to the correct thread (#420)
• Helm: allowUserMessages for Discord — parity with Slack; controls whether the bot requires @mention in threads (#420)

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Discord multi-bot is_mentioned false positive — removed mention_roles check that caused @BotA to trigger BotB when both share a Discord role (#440, #420)
• Helm: allowUserMessages silently ignored for Discord — config was only rendered in [slack] section (#441, #420)
• Semaphore leak in KeyedAsyncQueue — lazy cleanup when entries > 100 prevents unbounded growth in long-running deployments (#420)
• Panic safety — semaphore.acquire() uses match + warn instead of expect() to avoid task panic on closed semaphore (#420)
• Helm: auto-append appVersion tag to agent images without explicit tag

🔧 Chores

• Streaming truncation uses tail-priority (truncate_chars_tail) so users see the most recent agent output
• Added .env and .kiro/ to .gitignore
• Inline Helm template comments for allow_user_messages
• Removed unused edit_message from Discord adapter (now a default no-op on the trait)

📖 Docs

• Renamed CronJob guide to k8s ref arch
• Added CronJob design guide

Full Changelog: openab-0.7.8-beta.2...openab-0.7.8-beta.4

⚠️ Behavior Change (since beta.3)

• Discord: role mentions no longer trigger the bot — only direct user mentions (@BotUser) work. Role mentions (@BotRole) are ignored to prevent false positives in multi-bot setups (#420, #440). Users should @mention the bot user, not the role, in Discord autocomplete.

🐛 Fixes

• Helm: decouple discord from botToken — [discord] config section no longer requires botToken at render time; token injected at runtime via env var (#403 by @thepagent)
• Helm: default discord.enabled when botToken present — Backward-compatible default so existing installs keep working (#394 by @thepagent)

• Streaming tool collapse restored — Fix streaming truncation regression + spawn Slack handle_message correctly (#259 by @dogzzdogzz)
