openab-0.8.3-beta.3

What's Changed since 0.8.3-beta.2

🚀 Features

• Turn-boundary batching dispatcher v2 — New 3-valued MessageProcessingMode (per-message / per-thread / per-lane) with per-mode idle timeouts, sequential batch reactions, and SendError retry logic. Cuts per-message-mode idle footprint by ~30x via Little's Law-based timeout tuning. (#686)
• Feishu thread (topic) reply support — Unified send_post_message() with reply_to parameter; each thread gets an independent session via root_id. (#725)
• Feishu image and text file attachment support — Gateway downloads, resizes (max 1200px, JPEG q75), and forwards images and text files (512KB cap) to the agent as ContentBlock::Image / ContentBlock::Text. (#731)
• /model and /agent slash commands — OpenClaw-style subcommand syntax (/model list, /model set <name>) with numbered picker, available on all gateway platforms. (#721)
• Helm secretEnv — API keys now stay in Kubernetes Secrets instead of plaintext in ConfigMap. Includes collision guard and dedup validation. (#730, closes #729)
• --version / -V flag — Uses clap's built-in version support. (#320)
• Raise max_bot_turns default to 100 — Hard cap raised to 1000 (from 10). (#741)
• Discord notification workflow — GitHub Actions workflow posts PR and Issue events to a Discord channel. (#106)

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Only send turn-limit warning from participating bot — Prevents duplicate warnings when multiple bots share a channel. (#728, closes #727)
• Docker: pre-create /home/node/.gemini — Fixes EACCES crash when Gemini CLI writes projects.json in a bind-mounted directory. (#747, closes #740)

📖 Documentation

• Move Local Development, Build & Push, and Project Structure from README to docs/local-dev.md; add missing features to README. (#734)
• ADR: turn-boundary message batching (consolidated from RFC #580). (#598)
• Tiered PR contribution guidelines — ADR + CONTRIBUTING.md + PR template with prior-art research requirement. (#679)

openab-0.8.3-beta.2

What's Changed since 0.8.3-beta.1

🚀 Features

• Google Chat adapter — Chat with OAB agents via Google Chat DMs and Spaces. Uses HTTP push from Google Chat + WebSocket to OAB pod. (#718)
• Feishu rich text, streaming, slash commands — Follow-up to the Feishu adapter: adds Markdown-to-rich-text rendering, streaming replies, /reset and /cancel slash commands, and gateway-side bot-to-bot scaffolding. (#706)

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Backfill sender_context.thread_id on first turn — Fix bug where thread_id was always None on the first message when OAB creates a new thread from a main-channel message. (#711)
• Helm: add missing gateway env vars, deploy control, and sidecar support — Fix v0.8.2 gateway templates missing critical env var injection for Telegram/LINE adapters, add sidecar support, and decouple config generation from deployment creation. (#693)
• Pin codex-acp to 0.10.0 — Fix regression where newer codex-acp versions broke compatibility. Keeps @openai/codex at 0.128.0. (#713)
• CI: label new PRs with pending-maintainer — Fix labeling workflow to trigger even without comments. (#709)

📖 Documentation

• Add agent-installable tools guide and sidecar extension patterns — formalizes how to extend OAB without modifying the Dockerfile or Helm chart. (#715)

openab-0.8.3-beta.1

What's Changed since 0.8.2

🚀 Features

• Feishu/Lark adapter — Chat with OAB agents in Feishu DMs and group chats. Default mode uses WebSocket long-connection (no public URL needed), with webhook fallback for restricted networks. (#704)
• [agent].inherit_env — Selectively inherit host env vars into agent subprocesses. Fixes workflows where users inject env vars via Kubernetes envFrom (ConfigMap/Secret) while maintaining the secure env_clear() default from #670. (#700)
• PR preview build workflow — Manual workflow_dispatch workflow that builds a Docker image from any PR branch and pushes to GHCR with tag :prXXX. (#701)

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fix Feishu bot self-echo loop — Prevent the bot's own replies from being pushed back via WebSocket and processed as new inbound messages. (#705)

📖 Documentation

• Add reference architecture for issue reproduction using OAB — documents how an agent running inside a pod can triage and reproduce GitHub issues against a remote k3s cluster over SSH. (#697)

⚠️ Breaking Change

• Cron: usercron path resolution changed — usercron_path is now resolved relative to $HOME/.openab/ instead of the working directory. If you previously used a relative path like usercron.toml, it now resolves to $HOME/.openab/usercron.toml. Update your config or use an absolute path to preserve existing behavior. (#681)

✨ Features

• Helm: Gateway Deployment + Service templates — deploy the Custom Gateway alongside agents via Helm chart (#677)
• Cron: resolve usercron relative path from $HOME/.openab/ — usercron files are now co-located with other agent state (#681)

🐛 Fixes

• Persist thread→session mapping across pod restarts — ACP sessions now survive pod restarts without losing thread context (#459)
• Gateway: constantize Telegram API URL + reject empty LINE source IDs — harden gateway input validation (#678)
• Gateway: improve intents and auth error messages — clearer errors on misconfigured gateway connections (#328)
• Bump CLI versions — codex 0.128.0, claude 2.1.124, gemini 0.40.1, copilot 1.0.40, cursor 2026.04.30, opencode 1.14.31 (#684)

📖 Docs

• Add default agent resources section to Kiro CLI docs (#682)
• Add enterprise K8s deployment guide for MS Teams (#674)
• Expand Codex image generation guide (#685)

🐛 Fixes

• Discord: paginate config select menu — fix crash when >25 options in slash command select menus (#646)

✨ Features

• Global slash commands + /reset for DM sessions — register slash commands globally (not per-guild) and add /reset to clear DM session history (#666)
