A Sunday closes a week, a month's last day closes the month, and
31 December closes the year. Keyed off the day being *reported* rather
than off today, which is the only reading that stays right when the bot
has been offline: catching up on a week-old Sunday now also posts that
week's summary, and there is a test asserting the five messages a
three-day outage produces.
One scheduler, a date predicate. Three background tasks firing at the
same wall-clock time into the same group is three independent ways for
an evening to go wrong, for no gain over an if-statement. A failed
period summary is deliberately best-effort and runs after the day has
been marked, so it cannot make the bot re-post the daily one tomorrow.
Also: the quote frame arrived while this was being written, and it
carries a trap. `quote` has its own nested `attachments` array holding
the *quoted* message's media -- so a text reply to somebody's photo has
attachments in the payload that belong to somebody else. Reading them
would credit the replier with a photo they did not post, in a group
where people reply to photos constantly, inflating one number without
ever looking wrong.
The parser already read the top level only and is correct. It is now
pinned by a test built from the exact captured frame, and written up in
DOCS-signal-envelopes.md, because "it happens to be right" and "it
cannot silently stop being right" are different things. This is the same
wrong-nesting-level mistake that once made the bot ignore its own
stickers.
test_bot.py went past the 250-line cap on the way, so the report and
catch-up tests move into files named for what they cover.

Two gaps kuhy pointed at, both about not losing messages the bot was not
awake for.
Missed *counts* already worked and now have a test saying so: an event
is keyed by Signal's own send timestamp, signal-cli keeps receiving in
json-rpc mode while the bot is down, and the replay on reconnect is
absorbed by the primary key. Messages sent during an outage come back
filed under the day they were actually sent.
Missed *reports* did not. A bot that was down at 21:37 never posted that
day and never went back for it. The last day reported is now written
down per group, so returning from an outage posts every day it owes,
oldest first, bounded at a week. A day nobody spoke on is marked settled
rather than reconsidered forever; a day whose send *failed* is
deliberately left unmarked so the next run retries it.
The pre-0.1.0 counter is carried over rather than discarded: 342
messages across four groups, 319 of them in the real group. What the
counter cannot say is when, so before assuming, four places were checked
for a real inbound timestamp -- journald (commands only), signal-cli's
account.db (19 tables, none inbound; message_send_log is the bot's own
outgoing resend buffer), Signal Desktop (unlinked, empty, and it does
not backfill on link), and signal-api/attachments (the one dated
artifact). The attachment mtimes put 12 files on 29 Aug against 79 on
30 Aug inside the counter's window, which is why the whole counter is
filed under 30 Aug rather than split.
That day is marked in group_meta, and a marked day claims no average
message length -- those messages have a count but no lengths, so
"średnio 0 znaków" would be a measurement nobody took. The mark is also
what will keep the day out of personal records: a merged 22-hour day
would otherwise hand somebody a record they never set.
render_day's options move into a DayView value object; the keyword list
had reached eight and this renderer is about to be shared by several
commands that each want a different subset.
