feat(bot): show 👀 the moment the bot starts on a message, so a long turn never looks like silence (0.10.0) - #40
A turn can run for minutes. Until it ended, the chat showed nothing under the messages it was working on, so a long turn looked the same as a bot that never saw them. 0.9.0 only put 👀 at the end of a silent turn in the answer_scope: all group, which is too late for exactly that case.
Now the bot puts 👀 on every person's message a turn covers the moment the turn starts. That holds in every chat: private chats, the group in asked and in all mode, mentions, replies, plain lines, stickers, photos, files, a voice note (on the note, not the 🎤 echo) and an edit (on the message edited). A line handed over mid-turn gets 👀 as soon as the plugin takes it. Taps get none, since their message is the bot's own, and a turn of only taps shows nothing.
The reactions go out on their own thread, so the AI call never waits on Telegram. If Telegram refuses one, the bot logs it and moves on. It doesn't try 👍 then (👍 means "noted") and posts no text. A small in-memory record keeps a message from getting 👀 twice, whether from the turn after a failed one or from an edit's turn. Before it reacts at the end, a turn waits up to 10 s for its 👀 calls, so a late 👀 can't land on top of the answer's own reaction.
At the end of a turn:
a text answer leaves the 👀 where it is
a reaction-only answer replaces it, on the same messages as before (every covered one in the all group, the last one elsewhere)
silence keeps it, now meaning "read". The end adds nothing, except 👍 once where the start's 👀 was refused (in the all group)
a failed or busy turn keeps it, and its lines go with the next turn as before. Asked-mode error text is unchanged
The model's rules text is unchanged and still true. The private plugin's text also stays true, so it needs no edit. The design is in docs/DESIGN.md, section 5.2 "👀 at the start" and section 4.3. Version 0.10.0.
Tests: 529 pass, ruff clean. The new tests/test_eyes.py covers these cases: 👀 reaches the message while the AI is still working (all group, mention, asked reply, private chat in both modes), a mid-turn join gets it at once, a Telegram call that hangs never holds the AI call, a refused 👀 posts nothing and tries no 👍, a bot gets none, a tap-only turn gets none, no message gets a second one, and a reaction-only answer replaces it. I broke the code path behind each new or changed test and watched it go red (10 mutations, all caught), then restored it.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Group messages now receive an 👀 reaction when processing begins, including messages added while a turn is underway. The reaction is applied without delaying the response.
Updates
Text answers leave the 👀 reaction in place; reaction-only answers replace it with the requested reaction.
When there is no answer, addressed messages and voice notes are marked as read without an answer. Unaddressed messages keep their 👀 reaction.
If 👀 reactions are refused in an all-messages group, the bot uses 👍 instead. Failed turns containing only unaddressed lines remain silent.
…ng turn never looks like silence (0.10.0)
Every person's message a turn covers gets 👀 as the turn starts, in every chat, and a line handed over mid-turn gets it when the plugin takes it. It goes on its own thread so the turn never waits, is never put on a tap or twice on a message, and a refusal is only logged. A text answer leaves it, a reaction-only answer replaces it, silence keeps it as «read» (👍 once where it was refused), and a failed turn keeps it.

Walkthrough
The bot now starts asynchronous 👀 reactions when a turn begins, including for messages handed over during a turn. It tracks reaction results and uses them when handling silence, replies, and answer reactions. Documentation and tests describe the updated behavior.
Changes: Turn-start read reactions
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Start-reaction worker and tracking supercycletracker/bot.py, docs/DESIGN.md, tests/test_eyes.py
A dedicated worker applies 👀 reactions asynchronously and tracks pending, successful, and refused reactions. The bot limits tracked entries and includes the worker in shutdown and idle handling. Tests cover pending answers, mid-turn arrivals, slow calls, refused reactions, and duplicate marking.
Turns submit start reactions for messages that arrive mid-turn and wait up to the configured limit before sending a kept reply. Successful answer reactions clear tracked 👀 state. Tests and documentation cover text, reaction-only, silent, failed, busy, addressed, and private-chat turns. The package version changes to 0.10.0.
GeiserX/SuperCycleTracker#39: Defines silent-answer behavior and reaction fallback rules also implemented in this pull request.
GeiserX/SuperCycleTracker#32: Adds the gesture reaction path whose test expectations and reaction handling are updated here.
Merge Risk: Low · previous review ddc21
The change is mergeable with bounded follow-up: queued or failed requests can omit read indicators, and delayed retries can replace an answer reaction with 👀. Text answers and stored records are not shown to be affected.

Explanation
The title names the main change: the bot adds a 👀 reaction as soon as a turn starts on a message, so long turns do not look silent. The raw summary confirms this is the primary change across bot.py, the docs, and the tests. The version bump to 0.10.0 is also reflected in the title and in init.py. The title is 107 characters, which is longer than ideal, but it is specific and accurate.

- Around line 2199-2203: Update the 👀 claim tracking around `mids` and
`self._eyed` so claims for queued jobs are kept separately from evictable
history and remain available until each job runs or is cancelled. Preserve
bounded eviction for completed history, and ensure eviction cannot cause a
queued job to skip 👀 reactions for messages it covers.
- Around line 2234-2238: Coordinate pending 👀 retries tracked by state.looks
with the reaction-only answer so a retry delayed beyond looked’s EYES_WAIT_S
timeout cannot overwrite the answer; establish a mechanism to prevent or resolve
the retry before the answer reaction is sent rather than relying on looked’s
bounded wait.
- Around line 2209-2230: Update the reaction handling in job so transient
network failures are distinguishable from permanent Telegram refusals and can be
retried on a later turn; do not let a retry replace a later answer reaction.
Preserve the existing refusal behavior, and establish how failures are
classified and reaction state is tracked before implementing retries around
tg.call and _eyed.

Prevent delayed 👀 retries from overwriting answers.
If Telegram returns a 429 with retry_after above 10 seconds, looked can time out and the reaction-only answer can be sent first. The later 👀 retry can replace that answer. Coordinate the retry with the answer reaction so it cannot overwrite it.

Not changing this. The job checks under the lock, right before each call, whether the answer's reaction already replaced the claim (unlook pops it), so a job that hasn't started yet skips that message. The only remaining race is a single setMessageReaction call already in flight for more than EYES_WAIT_S when the answer reacts. The worst case is a 👀 where the answer's emoji should be, and we accept that.

@GeiserX Understood. The remaining race can replace the answer’s reaction with 👀. You accept that risk, so I won’t pursue a change.
I couldn't check this conversation for new learnings, so no new learning was saved.

# AGENTS.md
## Rules
- In the group the bot reads replies to the bot, answers to its questions, commands, and messages that mention it when Telegram delivers them (as a group admin, all of her messages). Voice notes, photos, videos, stickers and files from her or an admin are always processed. It also answers private chats with her or an admin. With `history_scope: all` the group's other messages go to the assistant as context marked `[not to you]`, never answered. With `answer_scope: all` her and the admins' group texts without a mention start a turn like addressed ones, marked `[no mention]` (her plain texts too when the bot reads the whole group; context stays `[not to you]`, and principle 1 is rendered scoped to allow it); the answer may be only a reaction (on every message of the turn), or no words when the assistant writes `NO_REPLY`, which the bot never sends. A person's group message is never left with nothing: a turn that shows nothing puts 👀 («read») on every message it covered (👍 once where 👀 is refused), and a mention, reply or voice note that got nothing gets `read_no_answer` (a sticker or photo without a mention gets 👀). Bots never start a turn, and a failed turn of only such lines posts no error and no 👀.
