release: 0.2.6 «Stephanus I» — dodano !analityka
One row per command attempt, not two aggregates written only on success.

command_uses holds last-use only and daily_uses counts successes; both are
rate-limiter state and both are written by store.record_use, which the
dispatcher calls only when a handler returns cleanly. A gate refusal and a
crash returned before it, so a command that failed every time looked exactly
like one nobody ran, and nothing knew which command a counted message was.

command_events now takes every attempt with its outcome, its duration and
the item it served; upstream_calls takes every outbound request made while
serving one. The two writes stay separate on purpose -- recording a refusal
as a use is what slid the cooldown window forward every time somebody was
told to wait -- and test_dispatcher_outcomes asserts last_used does not move.

Backfilled from journald joined against message_events, with daily_uses
filling the residual so the two sources cannot double-count. Two things were
wrong on the first attempt and both were found by measuring rather than by
reasoning: the window has to be symmetric, because sent_at_ms comes from the
sender's phone and the journal stamp from this host (194 of 299 lines landed
*before* their own message, by up to 3.2 s); and matching has to be a global
closest-pair assignment, because per-row greedy cannot separate two commands
seconds apart. Together those took the dropped rows from 137 to zero, and
recovered 418 invocations back to 29 August.

Also: !analityka in the group, twelve Polish lines, naming at most three
people and only ones whose display name has been seen; an Analytics tab with
Nivo charts; and continuous latency measurement, which answers the open
question in DOCS-latency.md -- a text send is 235 ms and an image send about
2.2 s, so the upload really is where the time goes.

EPHEMERAL_TABLES was doing two unrelated jobs and is now two tuples: what a
schema bump rebuilds, and what leaving a group clears. daily_uses left the
first (it is a backfill source now) and stayed in the second, and
_drop_reshaped took over the repair a bump used to do for it.

Commands

The copy that matters is not this file: !pomoc prints the same list in the group, in Polish, one line of description per command. That version is built from the command registry at run time and cannot drift, because CommandRegistry.register takes the description as a required argument and help_command.render_help prints any command its GROUPS table forgot to file anyway, under no heading.

This file is the trigger reference — every spelling that resolves, which !pomoc deliberately does not print.

Aliases live in signal_bot/aliases.json, not in source, because they are data: adding one should never mean touching Python. Two constraints on a new one. It is subtracted from the personal-data gate's word list by _repo_vocabulary(), so it must not be name-shaped; and tests/test_nearest.py fails if it lands within edit distance of a different command's trigger, because the near-miss suggestion below would then be a coin toss. !poems is the one trigger in the table that is only just legal: it sits two edits from !pies, and passes solely because !poem is one edit away and wins the tie. Deleting !poem would fail the suite at !poems, nowhere near where the change was made.

A word nothing claims

An unrecognised !word used to be dropped in silence, which made a typo indistinguishable from the bot being down. Now it is answered, and kept:

  • within one edit (two, from six characters up) of a real trigger, the bot asks whether that is what you meant — !cta → chodziło o !kot? The distance is optimal string alignment rather than difflib's ratio, because a transposition costs one edit there and shreds the matching blocks a ratio counts.
  • otherwise it points at !zaproponuj, which files the idea.
  • either way the word and the message go into unknown_commands, which the management page shows. That is the list of commands worth writing next.

Three things stay silent, and each for its own reason. !kot ładny is a real trigger with words after it, and always has been silent. !! and !? are punctuation, not a mistyped command. And a command scoped to some other group — the album's, whose triggers are real people's names — is neither answered nor recorded, because a refusal would announce that the album exists.

add_photo and random exist only in the photo album's own groups, and only on an installation that has an album at all — everywhere else they are not commands, not refused and never logged. Both take arguments, and those arguments are resolved to pseudonym keys by the registry before any handler, log line or command_uses row sees them. See DOCS-photo-pack.md and DOCS-add-photo.md.

Why !pomoc shows the first alias and not a trigger

Command.triggers is a frozenset of folded skeletons — folding.py runs NFKC, strips diacritics and maps Cyrillic/Greek/small-caps/leet lookalikes onto ASCII, so that !gecko typed on a Russian keyboard still resolves. Everything that makes those triggers robust also makes them unprintable: the set has no order, !papież survives only as !papiez, and the styled variants come out as zalgo.

So Command.primary holds the first raw trigger instead, which aliases.json lists as the canonical Polish spelling for every command.

Two consequences worth remembering, both from folding.py:

  • A command name can never contain a digit — fold maps 0134578 onto letters, so !7dni would resolve as !tdni.
  • The styled Unicode aliases in the table above are redundant now; folding covers them. They are kept because removing an alias can only take something away.
