Replaces samePhoneMarker/samePhoneResponsePrefix with:
- messagePrefix: prefix for all inbound messages
- Default: '[warelay]' if no allowFrom, else ''
- responsePrefix: prefix for all outbound replies
Also adds timestamp options:
- timestampPrefix: boolean to enable [Nov 29 06:30] format
- timestampTimezone: IANA timezone (default UTC)
Updated README with new config table entries.
Automatically prefixes responses with a configurable string when in
same-phone mode. This helps distinguish bot replies from user messages
in the same chat bubble.
Example config:
"samePhoneResponsePrefix": "🦞"
Will prefix all same-phone replies with the lobster emoji.
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
