When the relay is running, `warelay send` and `warelay heartbeat` now
communicate via Unix socket IPC (~/.warelay/relay.sock) to send messages
through the relay's existing WhatsApp connection.
Previously, these commands created new Baileys sockets that wrote to the
same auth state files, corrupting the Signal session ratchet and causing
the relay's subsequent sends to fail silently.
Changes:
- Add src/web/ipc.ts with Unix socket server/client
- Relay starts IPC server after connecting
- send command tries IPC first, falls back to direct
- heartbeat uses sendWithIpcFallback helper
- inbound.ts exposes sendMessage on listener object
- Messages sent via IPC are added to echo detection set
Fixes issue where unauthorized messages from +212652169245 (5elements spa)
triggered Bad MAC errors and silently killed the event emitter, preventing
all future message processing.
Changes:
1. Early allowFrom filtering in inbound.ts - blocks unauthorized senders
before they trigger encryption errors
2. Message timeout watchdog - auto-restarts connection if no messages
received for 10 minutes
3. Health monitoring in heartbeat - warns if >30 min without messages
4. Mock loadConfig in tests to handle new dependency
Root cause: Event emitter stopped firing after Bad MAC errors from
decryption attempts on messages from unauthorized senders. Connection
stayed alive but all subsequent messages.upsert events silently failed.
Adds full support for self-messaging setups where you chat with yourself
and an AI assistant replies in the same WhatsApp bubble.
Changes:
- Same-phone mode (from === to) always allowed, bypasses allowFrom check
- Echo detection via bounded Set (max 100) prevents infinite loops
- Configurable samePhoneMarker in config (default: "[same-phone]")
- Messages prefixed with marker so assistants know the context
- fromMe filter removed from inbound.ts (echo detection in auto-reply)
- Verbose logging for same-phone detection and echo skips
Tests:
- Same-phone allowed without/despite allowFrom configuration
- Body prefixed only when from === to
- Non-same-phone rejected when not in allowFrom
- Wrap Baileys connection.update listeners in try-catch to prevent
unhandled exceptions from crashing the relay process
- Add WebSocket-level error handlers in session.ts
- Add global unhandledRejection/uncaughtException handlers in index.ts
- Make listener.onClose error-safe with .catch() in auto-reply.ts
- Change default heartbeat from 30min to 10min
- Rewrite claude-config.md with personality, better explain personal
assistant features, add recommended MCPs section
