The lazy store embedded appservice.StateStore, but the client's store is
also type-asserted to crypto.StateStore -- a wider interface -- and
NewCryptoHelper refuses to start when that assertion fails. Embedding the
narrower interface dropped GetEncryptionEvent and FindSharedRooms from the
concrete type, so the bot died on startup with "the client state store
must implement crypto.StateStore".
Embed both, assert both at compile time, and resolve GetEncryptionEvent
lazily like IsEncrypted since the crypto machine reads megolm rotation
settings through it.
Without /sync nothing backfills the state store, so a room the bot had
not yet heard from looked unencrypted -- IsEncrypted answers false with
no error -- and any message the bot started on its own (ambient DMs,
expedition beats, briefings) went out in the clear. Under /sync the
cryptohelper registered StateStoreSyncHandler and the initial sync
carried every joined room's state, so the store was warm before the bot
ever spoke; the appservice port replicated the crypto plumbing but not
that backfill.
Resolve encryption and membership from the server on first read instead,
and refuse the send when they cannot be resolved: a message that fails is
recoverable, a plaintext one that has landed is not. Members are resolved
the same way, since an unfetched room shares the group session with
nobody.
An inbound event whose megolm session hadn't arrived yet was logged and
dropped. The keys are usually merely in flight — a to-device m.room_key racing
the room event — so the message was lost to a few hundred milliseconds.
On NoSessionFound, wait 3s for the session to land; if it doesn't, send an
m.room_key_request and wait 22s more, then decrypt and re-dispatch. A 55s
budget bounds the whole recovery so a permanently-unreadable event can't pin a
goroutine. Runs detached from the transaction context, which is cancelled the
moment we ACK — long before keys could arrive.
This duplicates cryptohelper.HandleEncrypted's own 3s/22s ladder on purpose:
that path is gated on a /sync token in the context, which appservice
transactions never carry, so wiring ch.ASEventProcessor would still drop these.
Note this does not touch the separate stale-megolm case, where a quiet room
stays unreadable until the sender's session rotates — no key request helps
there, and it self-heals.
Both session paths called GenerateAndUploadCrossSigningKeys unconditionally on
every start. That published a fresh cross-signing identity each time the bot
restarted, so every user's client saw the bot's verification break and had to
re-verify it. The freshly-minted recovery key was only ever logged, never kept,
so the identity couldn't be recovered either.
bootstrapCrossSigning now mints once, persists the recovery key to
DATA_DIR/cross_signing.json (0600), and on later starts reuses the stored
identity untouched. Two escape hatches, both normally unset:
CROSS_SIGNING_REGENERATE=1 forces exactly one remint (every user must then
re-verify), and CROSS_SIGNING_RECOVERY_KEY imports an identity created before
the bot persisted its own key.
Shared by the appservice and masdevice paths, which had drifted into two copies
of the same block.
Two things, entangled in the working tree because 20d1f92 was mislabeled
(its message claimed "device grant" but it only deleted registration.yaml.example
and left the failed appservice+/sync hybrid in client.go):
1. Land the MAS OAuth 2.0 device grant that was running in prod but never
committed: masauth.go + client.go rewrite. Bot stays a normal user so /sync
works; refresh token persisted in data/mas_auth.json.
2. Add "appservice" as an alternate transport behind AUTH_MODE (default
"masdevice" = unchanged device-grant path, instant rollback):
- internal/bot/session.go: Session abstraction unifying both transports
(OnEventType/Run/Stop); NewSession dispatches on AuthMode.
- internal/bot/appservice.go: as_token auth (MAS-durable, no login/MFA/expiry),
cryptohelper MSC4190 device creation, crypto machine fed from Synapse
transaction pushes (to-device/device-lists/OTK) instead of /sync, inbound
decrypt+redispatch, and lazy per-room StateStore backfill (encryption +
members) so replies in encrypted rooms encrypt to the right recipients.
- main.go: NewSession/sess.OnEventType/sess.Run in place of the /sync loop.
- .env.example: AUTH_MODE, AS_REGISTRATION, AS_LISTEN_HOST/PORT, HOMESERVER_DOMAIN.
The appservice path fixes the earlier hybrid's fatal flaw (Synapse forbids AS
users from /sync) by using the transaction/push model. Bot-side only; Synapse
registration + experimental_features (msc2409/msc3202/msc4190) and E2EE cutover
are the next steps. Build + vet green (CGO=1 -tags goolm).
IGNORED_BOTS was set in .env but never read by any code; only the
URL-preview plugin filtered, and via a different unset var
(URL_PREVIEW_IGNORE_USERS). Parse IGNORED_BOTS in NewRegistry and
short-circuit DispatchMessage/DispatchReaction so ignored senders
(e.g. @pete:parodia.dev) are dropped before any plugin runs.
- Add forex plugin (Frankfurter v2 API) with rate lookups, analysis,
DM-based alerts, and daily cron poll. Backfills 1 year of history
on startup for moving averages and buy signal scoring.
- Fix bot hang caused by SQLite lock contention in reminder polling:
rows cursor was held open while writing to the same DB. Collect
results first, close cursor, then process. Same fix in milkcarton.
- Add sync retry loop so the bot reconnects after network drops
instead of silently exiting. StopSync() for clean Ctrl+C shutdown.
- Add panic recovery to all dispatch, syncer, and cron paths.
- Make all HTTP-calling plugin commands async (goroutines) so a slow
or dead external API cannot block the message dispatch pipeline.
Affects: lookup, stocks, forex, anime, movies, concerts, gaming,
retro, wotd, urls, howami.
- Extract DisplayName to Base, add db.Exec helper, convert silent
error discards across the codebase.
- Fix UNO mercy-kill bug (eliminated bot continues playing), adventure
DM nag spam, stats column mismatch, per-call regex/replacer allocs.
- Update README: forex commands, Finance section, 47 plugins.
