Hour-long remote tasks were never delivered: a subscribe watch held one SSE stream for up to a day, the remote
sent nothing while its agent worked without text, and once the quiet connection died on the way (no FIN/RST) the
watch waited on it with no error and no log line.
- A subscription lasts at most 5 minutes (SubscriptionSlice), then GetTask and a new subscription: a pause, not a
failure. A slice ended mid-read counts as ours even when it surfaces as an I/O error.
- The shared handler connects with TCP keepalive (60 s, every 15 s, 4 probes) and HTTP/2 pings.
- Log lines when a watch starts or is restored, when a slice ends on a running task, when a result is delivered or
kept; the Telegram host's console log carries a UTC timestamp.
- action=status on a settled task ends its watch, so the result isn't delivered a second time.
- A "context busy" refusal of send says nothing was sent, names the watched task in that context and that its
result will arrive by itself; refusals never touch a watch.
ADMIN_USER_IDS (Telegram:AdminUserIds) takes a comma separated list; the older
ADMIN_USER_ID / Telegram:AdminUserId still works, also takes a list and is merged.
Empty entries and duplicates are ignored, non-numeric entries fail validation.
Impersonation is now per admin: one admin per target, an impersonating admin
can't be impersonated, and every admin's chat menu lists /impersonate.
ElevenLabs speaks for the voice tool when ELEVENLABS_API_KEY and ELEVENLABS_VOICE_ID
are set (TTS_PROVIDER=elevenlabs|openai picks, the other is the fallback). Opus output
(opus_48000_64) goes to Telegram as is; voice names resolve through /v2/voices;
instructions become audio tags on eleven_v3 and are ignored on other models. The key
is redacted from tool output and never reaches agent processes.
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET is no longer denied by name in the core defaults (the
*_SECRET glob still removes it); the Telegram host allows it by default so
workspace skills (gmail, gdrive) can use the Google OAuth client. Its value
stays in SecretValues: redacted from tool output, and aliases with the same
value are still removed.
Skills live in <cwd>/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md (frontmatter name + description).
SkillCatalog re-reads them on every run and the prompt lists name, description and
path; the model reads the full SKILL.md with the read tool when a task matches.
Streamable HTTP/SSE servers from the workspace's .volcanic/mcp/servers.json.
Headers are sealed with AES-GCM; the chat and the visible fields are the
associated data, so only /mcp_add|remove|tools change servers. Tools
<server>__<tool> go live in the session. An unreachable server is skipped
and reported in the system prompt. Keys are redacted from tool results, and
Telegram deletes messages that carry one.
OpenAI gpt-4o-mini-tts (female voice nova by default; TTS_MODEL/TTS_VOICE) renders OGG/Opus,
sent with sendVoice in order with rendered output. Up to 4500 characters per call, split
into 1500-character parts at paragraph/sentence/word boundaries; all parts are synthesized
before any is sent, and API errors come back to the agent as text with the key hidden.
On whenever OPENAI_API_KEY is set.
Add docs/a2a.md (concepts, file formats, endpoints, sessions, task
lifecycle, configuration, security notes, curl examples) describing
what src/Volcanic.AgenticCore.A2A.Server actually does. Add an A2A
project paragraph to architecture.md, an "A2A" section to
telegram-bot.md (/a2a, notify_owner, isolated sessions, port 8080),
A2A_ENABLED/A2A_PUBLIC_URL and the aspnet image to docker.md, and
project-map/test-command updates to CLAUDE.md.
Mark the A2A server design spec implemented and record the deviations
found while building it (A2AHostOptions, synchronous
IA2ACallerDirectory.Find, generic WorkspaceCallerDirectory, per-status
push payload, split file-part error handling, the outbound guarded
handler, the per-caller server/router architecture, the restart grace
period, the owner= log field, the aspnet image, and the actual push
retry schedule). Note the aspnet image in the docker-deployment spec
too, without rewriting its historical decisions.
While on, the admin's updates are routed as the target user's (allow-list,
chat, workspace, session, settings, jobs) and the target chat's output goes
to the admin's chat. The target's own updates are dropped with a notice that
an admin is working with their account. In memory; /impersonate 0 stops.
Each chat's jobs live in <workspace>/.volcanic/scheduler/jobs.json. On start the
scheduler loads every chat's file, moves the retired shared
<agentDir>/scheduler/jobs.json into them and renames it .migrated-<ts>.
A VolcanicSecretary jobs.json (bare array) in a chat's folder is converted
in place for that chat; the original is kept as .secretary-<ts>.
Also adds the VolcanicSecretary data migration plan.
Tokens now live in <cwd>/.volcanic/google-calendar/token.json, as in the
VolcanicSecretary reference, instead of <agentDir>/google-calendar/<chat
key>/. GoogleCalendarOptions.TokenDirectory, when set, keeps the old
per-chat layout under that root. Spec, docs and CLAUDE.md updated.
Entrypoint drops the capability bounding set and sets no_new_privs. Security docs
and spec no longer claim the agent can't reach the secrets; docker exec fallbacks
use a clean environment. PLAYWRIGHT_ENABLED drops the nested compose default.
Tests pin the Dockerfile's Playwright install step and the compose model fallback.
Image contents, build arguments, the environment table with what the agent's processes can't see, volumes, Coolify steps, first Claude login, updating (the npm layer is cached: build without cache or pin CLAUDE_CODE_VERSION), extensions, troubleshooting and security.
