- Move config from messages.ackReaction to whatsapp.ackReaction
- New structure: {emoji, direct, group} with granular control
- Support per-account overrides in whatsapp.accounts.*.ackReaction
- Add Zod schema validation for new config
- Maintain backward compatibility with old messages.ackReaction format
- Update tests to new config structure (14 tests, all passing)
- Add comprehensive documentation in docs/providers/whatsapp.md
- Timing: reactions sent immediately upon message receipt (before bot reply)
Breaking changes:
- Config moved from messages.ackReaction to whatsapp.ackReaction
- Scope values changed: 'all'/'direct'/'group-all'/'group-mentions'
→ direct: boolean + group: 'always'/'mentions'/'never'
- Old config still supported via fallback for smooth migration
- Fix bug where ack reaction was not sent when group activation is 'always'
- When requireMention=false (activation: always), always send reaction
- Add test case for activation='always' scenario
- Update inline comments for clarity
- Add automatic emoji reactions on inbound WhatsApp messages
- Support all ackReactionScope modes: all, direct, group-all, group-mentions
- Reaction is sent AFTER successful reply (unlike Telegram/Discord)
- Errors are logged with proper context
- Add comprehensive test suite for ack reaction logic
Config usage:
messages:
ackReaction: "👀"
ackReactionScope: "group-mentions" # default
Closes: WhatsApp ack-reaction feature request
