fixes#103
Fix race condition where app_mention event fires before message event
logs to log.jsonl, causing the user's triggering message to be missing
from the agent's context. Now append the current message directly from
ctx.message to recentMessages.
Breaking Changes:
- Timestamps now use Slack format - run migrate-timestamps.ts for existing logs
Added:
- Channel/user ID mappings in system prompt
- Skills documentation in system prompt
- Debug last_prompt.txt output
- Bash working directory info
- Token-efficient log queries filtering tool calls
Changed:
- Turn-based message context (groups consecutive bot messages as one turn)
- Messages sorted by Slack timestamp
- Condensed system prompt (~5k → ~2.7k chars)
- Simplified user prompt
- Selective logging (skip UI status labels)
Fixed:
- Duplicate message logging from app_mention handler
- Username obfuscation in thread messages
- Messages > 40k chars are split into multiple Slack messages
- Full tool results now shown in thread (no truncation)
- Main message truncates with 'see thread for full response' if too long
- Keep jsonl log truncation for storage efficiency
- Truncate messages exceeding Slack's 40,000 char limit
- Catch Slack API errors in queue and post to thread instead of crashing
- Add error context to queue operations for better debugging
- Wrap replaceMessage in try/catch
- During execution: show tool labels, thinking, and text in main message
- After completion: replace main message with only final assistant text
- Post thinking (italic) and text to thread for full audit trail
- Add promise queue to ensure ctx.respond calls execute sequentially
- Add log.logThinking() and log.logResponse() for console output
- Get final text from agent.state.messages instead of tracking
Closes#65
Working Indicator:
- Add '...' to channel messages while mom is processing
- Automatically removed when work completes or stops
- Applies to working message, not status messages
Improved Stop Command:
- Posts separate 'Stopping...' message that updates to 'Stopped'
- Original working message continues updating with tool results
- Clean separation between status and work output
- Properly handles abort during multi-step operations
Clean Stop Reason Handling:
- Agent run() now returns { stopReason } instead of throwing
- Handle 'aborted', 'error', 'stop', 'length', 'toolUse' cases cleanly
- No more exception-based control flow
- Track stopReason from assistant message.stopReason field
New SlackContext Methods:
- replaceMessage() - replace message text instead of appending
- setWorking() - add/remove working indicator
- Improved context tracking for stop command updates
Major improvements to mom's logging and cost reporting:
Centralized Logging System:
- Add src/log.ts with type-safe logging functions
- Colored console output (green=user, yellow=mom, dim=details)
- Consistent format: [HH:MM:SS] [context] message
- Replace scattered console.log/error calls throughout codebase
Usage Tracking & Cost Reporting:
- Track tokens (input, output, cache read/write) and costs per run
- Display summary at end of each run in console and Slack thread
- Example: 💰 Usage: 12,543 in + 847 out (5,234 cache read) = $0.0234
Prompt Caching Optimization:
- Move recent messages from system prompt to user message
- System prompt now mostly static (only changes with memory files)
- Enables effective use of Anthropic's prompt caching
- Significantly reduces costs on subsequent requests
Model & Cost Improvements:
- Switch from Claude Opus 4.5 to Sonnet 4.5 (~40% cost reduction)
- Fix Claude Opus 4.5 cache pricing in ai package (was 3x too expensive)
- Add manual override in generate-models.ts until upstream fix merges
- Submitted PR to models.dev: https://github.com/sst/models.dev/pull/439
UI/UX Improvements:
- Extract actual text from tool results instead of JSON wrapper
- Cleaner Slack thread formatting with duration and labels
- Tool args formatting shows paths with offset:limit notation
- Add chalk for colored terminal output
Dependencies:
- Add chalk package for terminal colors
- Add MEMORY.md files for persistent working memory
- Global memory: workspace/MEMORY.md (shared across channels)
- Channel memory: workspace/<channel>/MEMORY.md (channel-specific)
- Automatically loaded into system prompt on each request
- Enhance JSONL log format with ISO 8601 dates
- Add 'date' field for easy grepping (e.g., grep '"date":"2025-11-26"')
- Migrated existing logs to include date field
- Improve log query efficiency
- Add jq query patterns to prevent context overflow
- Emphasize limiting NUMBER of messages (10-50), not truncating text
- Show full message text and attachments in queries
- Handle null/empty attachments with (.attachments // [])
- Optimize system prompt
- Add current date/time for date-aware operations
- Format recent messages as TSV (43% token savings vs raw JSONL)
- Add efficient query examples with both JSON and TSV output
- Enhanced security documentation
- Add prompt injection risk warnings
- Document credential exfiltration scenarios
- Provide mitigation strategies
