Add conversation turn validation to prevent "400 function call turn comes immediately
after a user turn or after a function response turn" errors when using Gemini models
in multi-topic/multi-channel Telegram conversations.
Changes:
1. Added validateGeminiTurns() function to detect and fix turn sequence violations
- Merges consecutive assistant messages into single message
- Preserves metadata (usage, stopReason, errorMessage) from later message
- Handles edge cases: empty arrays, single messages, tool results
2. Applied validation at two critical message points in pi-embedded-runner.ts:
- Compaction flow (lines 674-678): Before compact() call
- Normal agent run (lines 989-993): Before replaceMessages() call
3. Comprehensive test coverage with 8 test cases:
- Empty arrays and single messages
- Alternating user/assistant sequences (no change needed)
- Consecutive assistant message merging with metadata preservation
- Tool result message handling
- Real-world corrupted sequences with mixed content types
Testing:
✓ All 7 test cases pass (pi-embedded-helpers.test.ts)
✓ Full build succeeds with no TypeScript errors
✓ No breaking changes to existing functionality
This is Phase 1 of a two-phase fix:
- Phase 1 (completed): Turn validation to suppress Gemini errors
- Phase 2 (pending): Root cause analysis of why history gets corrupted with topic switching

When the conversation context exceeds the model's limit, instead of
throwing an opaque error or returning raw JSON, we now:
1. Detect context overflow errors (413, request_too_large, etc.)
2. Return a user-friendly message explaining the issue
3. Suggest using /new or /reset to start fresh
This prevents the assistant from becoming completely unresponsive
when context grows too large (e.g., from many screenshots or long
tool outputs).
Addresses issue #394
* cron: skip delivery for HEARTBEAT_OK responses
When an isolated cron job has deliver:true, skip message delivery if the
response is just HEARTBEAT_OK (or contains HEARTBEAT_OK at edges with
short remaining content <= 30 chars). This allows cron jobs to silently
ack when nothing to report but still deliver actual content when there
is something meaningful to say.
Media is still delivered even if text is HEARTBEAT_OK, since the
presence of media indicates there's something to share.
* fix(heartbeat): make ack padding configurable
* chore(deps): update to latest
