Subject: [PATCH 01/16] feat: add rotating group tips system with admin
 controls
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Add tipsStore with 15 default sweepstakes-safe tips (id, text, enabled)
- Add TIPS_GROUP constant (@GambleCodezPrizeHub, overridable via env)
- Persist tipsStore in runtime-state.json (snapshot + load)
- Start tips scheduler on bot launch: posts one random enabled tip
  silently every 4 hours to @GambleCodezPrizeHub (disable_notification)
- Scheduler is re-armable when admin changes the interval

Admin commands:
  /tips  /t  /tp    — Tips Manager dashboard with inline buttons
  /tiplist          — Show all tips with IDs and preview
  /tipadd           — Prompt for new tip text (state: await_tip_add_text)
  /tipremove        — Select tip by button to delete
  /tipedit          — Select tip by button then prompt for new text
  /tiptoggle        — Toggle entire tips system on/off
  /tiptest          — Send one random tip preview to admin in DM
  /tipsettings      — Show settings and update interval (hours)

Inline button actions:
  tips_cmd_{add,edit,remove,toggle,list,test,settings}
  tip_remove_<id>       — remove a specific tip
  tip_edit_select_<id>  — prompt to edit a specific tip
  tip_toggle_<id>       — enable/disable individual tip

pendingAction state machine:
  await_tip_add_text       → save new tip, reply "Added as Tip #X"
  await_tip_edit_text      → update tip text, reply "Tip #X updated"
  await_tip_settings_interval → update interval + restart scheduler

Subject: [PATCH 02/16] feat: disable GitHub hosting, add VPS-only runtime
 guard, add deploy.sh
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

GitHub CI:
- deploy.yml: disable `deploy` job with `if: false` — GitHub Actions
  must NEVER restart or launch the bot; it is code storage only.
  Quality-gates job (syntax, tests, audit) continues to run on push.
- ci.yml: unchanged — already runs tests without touching Telegram.

index.js runtime guards (layered):
- CI / smoke-test layer: if CI=true or DISABLE_RUNTIME=1 → log and
  skip all runtime startup without calling process.exit() so that
  `require('./index.js')` in smoke tests completes cleanly.
- VPS-only layer: if DEVICE !== "vps" → print warning and exit(0).
  Set DEVICE=vps in the VPS .env to allow the bot to start.

/deploy admin command:
- Restart logic is systemctl-only (no PM2); unchanged from original.

deploy.sh (new, VPS-only):
- git fetch --all && git reset --hard origin/main
- npm ci --omit=dev
- systemctl restart runewager
- systemctl is-active confirmation

.env.example:
- Added DEVICE=vps entry so prod-run.sh copies it correctly.

Subject: [PATCH 03/16] fix: replace git pull with fetch+reset --hard in
 /deploy command and scripts

- /deploy Telegram command: git pull -> git fetch --all + git reset --hard
  origin/main + git clean -fd. Prevents hangs caused by dirty working trees,
  untracked files, or merge conflicts that made /deploy stuck.
- prod-run.sh: same fetch+reset change for the initial code-pull step.
- deploy.sh: add systemctl stop before git ops (prevents file locks during
  reset) and git clean -fd after reset (removes stale untracked files).

All three paths now use the same hard-reset strategy. Systemd service,
CI guard (CI=true/DISABLE_RUNTIME=1), and DEVICE=vps guard are unchanged
as they were already correct.

deploy.yml:
- Change trigger from push:main to pull_request:types:[closed]
- Add merge guard to quality-gates job: only runs when merged==true,
  base.ref==main, and merge_commit_sha is present. workflow_dispatch
  still works for manual deploys. Revert PRs, closed-without-merge,
  draft PRs, and direct pushes are all completely ignored.
- Enable deploy job (was if:false) — now fires only when quality gates
  pass. Deploy step simplified to a single SSH call: bash deploy.sh

deploy.sh:
- Add up-to-date hash check (git ls-remote vs local HEAD) before
  systemctl stop. If VPS already has the latest commit, exit 0
  immediately without stopping the service or touching anything.

index.js (/deploy command):
- After git fetch, compare local HEAD vs origin/main. If equal, reply
  "Bot is already running the latest version." and return early — no
  reset, no npm ci, no restart.

Subject: [PATCH 05/16] feat: deploy source tags + per-step admin notifications
 + SSH retry
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

deploy.sh:
- Accepts $1 source arg: github | bot | vps (default: vps)
- Sources .env at startup so BOT_TOKEN/ADMIN_IDS are available
- send_admin() function: silent curl-based Telegram notification
  (disable_notification=true — no buzz/sound on admin's phone)
- ERR trap: always sends "Deploy failed at line N" on any error
- Per-step notifications: started, stopping bot, pulling code,
  cleaning repo, installing deps, starting bot, complete/failed
- Already-up-to-date path also notifies admin

deploy.yml:
- DEPLOY_PASS secret wired to deploy job env
- Install sshpass before SSH step
- Deploy step tries SSH key first; on failure waits 120s then
  retries with sshpass password fallback; on second failure sends
  Telegram alert and exits 1
- deploy.sh called with "github" source arg

index.js (/deploy command):
- Replaced full in-process git+npm+restart logic with a single
  detached spawn of deploy.sh with "bot" source arg
- Bot replies "Deployment starting..." then exits after 2s;
  deploy.sh takes over and sends all per-step notifications

 # Runewager — VPS Deployment Script
 #

 # What it does:
-#   1. git fetch + reset to origin/main (clean, no merge conflicts)

CodeAnt critical review fix: previously if git fetch or reset
failed after systemctl stop, the service would stay permanently
down because set -e would abort the script with no recovery.

Now:
- git fetch + reset are wrapped in an if/else conditional
- On failure: stderr is captured and included in both the warn
  log and the admin Telegram notification for diagnostics
- Service is restarted on the old/existing code so bot stays up
- Exit 1 signals the caller (e.g. GitHub Actions) that deploy
  failed without triggering the ERR trap a second time

Addresses all four CodeAnt nitpick areas:
  - Git fetch/reset robustness (critical)
  - Debug info on git failures (diagnostic output captured)
  - Remote hash check already handles unreachable remotes safely
    (empty REMOTE_HASH falls through to deploy, conservative)

Root cause: both ci.yml validate and smoke jobs referenced
`environment: name: production`. GitHub Actions enforces
deployment protection rules (required reviewers) on any job
that targets a protected environment, causing those jobs to
fail instantly (1s) when protection gates require manual approval.

CI should never use a protected environment — only the actual
deploy job in deploy.yml should.

ci.yml:
- Remove `environment: production` from validate and smoke jobs
  (root cause of the 1s failure)
- Add workflow_dispatch trigger so CI can be run manually
- Upgrade permissions to contents: write, pull-requests: write
- Set cancel-in-progress: false (don't cancel in-flight CI runs)

deploy.yml:
- Add push: branches: [main] trigger (direct pushes also deploy)
- Upgrade permissions to contents: write, pull-requests: write
- Simplify quality-gates `if` condition:
  push || workflow_dispatch || (pull_request && merged == true)

.github/settings.yml:
- New file for Probot Settings App
- main branch: no required reviewers, no strict status checks,
  enforce_admins: false, allow force pushes, allow deletions

- index.js: username confirmation flow (WAITING_FOR_USERNAME never
  auto-accepts typed text; always shows "Yes, Continue / No, Edit"
  confirmation); NON_USERNAME_WORDS guard rejects obvious non-usernames
  (help, hi, back, ?, etc.) with a friendly nudge

- index.js: AFFILIATE_REMINDER_TEXT shown at every required touchpoint:
  onboarding intro, link-username prompt, bonus request flow, promo
  claim view, weekly reminder, existing-account skip, and link-later flow

- index.js: "Tell me more about the 30 SC bonus" button added to
  wagerReminderKeyboard, link-account prompt, bonus confirmation, and
  /start intro; w30_bonus_info action handler explains full promo with
  affiliate reminder and remaining attempts

- index.js: admin panel expanded with "View Completed Requests",
  "Add Username Manually" (w30_admin_completed, w30_admin_link_username),
  "Return to Admin Menu" button, and inline "Mark Tip Sent" flow;
  finaliseUsernameLink helper centralises all username-save logic

- index.js: submitBonusRequest includes attempt count, wager requirement,
  and affiliate reminder in user confirmation message; admin ping updated
  with "admin action required" label

- scripts/disk-protect.sh: new weekly disk-space protection script
  (log rotation, compress logs >1 day, delete logs >7 days, journalctl
  vacuum 300 MB, npm cache clear, temp file cleanup, delete snapshots
  >30 days, never deletes .env or state files)

- prod-run.sh: install disk-protect.sh as weekly Sunday 3 AM cron job

From: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Date: Mon, 23 Feb 2026 05:29:56 +0000
Subject: [PATCH 09/16] feat: age gate hardening, free-to-play messaging, Help
 sub-menu, full command reference
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- COPY.ageGate: add "100% free to play, worldwide" statement with
  Markdown formatting; all senders updated to pass parse_mode: 'Markdown'
- Intro GIF caption + post-age-gate rundown: add explicit "100% FREE /
  worldwide access" line at all onboarding touchpoints
- userMainMenuText: add free-to-play reminder line in the main menu
  header shown to every user on every menu open

- pmenu_help: changed from directly opening the booklet to a Help
  sub-menu with two options: "📖 Command Help Booklet" and "🐞 Report
  a Bug"; both sub-actions fully wired (help_open_booklet,
  help_open_bugreport)

- adminMainMenuKeyboard: added "📖 Admin Commands Reference" and
  "🐞 Bug Reports" buttons directly on the admin main menu (not buried
  in a sub-menu); both wired to pamenu_admin_help and pamenu_bug_reports

- configureBotSurface: complete rewrite of all three command scopes
  (global/default, all_private_chats, all_group_chats) plus the
  per-admin chat scope; every registered command now has an accurate
  description; added leaderboard_weekly, giveaway, and all admin
  commands (deploy, deploy_status, logs, admin_notify, etc.)

- buildHelpPages page 1: add "100% FREE / worldwide" bullet, update
  quick-start to mention GambleCodez affiliate step and 30 SC bonus
- buildHelpPages page 5: completely rewritten as a full user command
  reference grouped by category (Account, Runewager Account, Bonuses,
  Community, Help) with per-command tooltip text for every command
- buildHelpPages page 6: completely rewritten as a full admin command
  reference grouped by category (Dashboard, 30 SC Bonus, Giveaway,
  Announcements, User Mgmt, Bug Reports, System) with usage notes

- ageGateKeyboard: button labels updated to "Yes — I am 18+ and
  eligible" / "No — I am under 18" for clarity

Subject: [PATCH 10/16] fix: address all 5 CodeAnt AI nitpicks from PR #66
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

deploy.sh — three fixes:

1. ERR trap recovery: trap now uses ${BASH_LINENO[0]} instead of
   $LINENO (which resolves to the trap function's own line, not the
   failing caller). A _SERVICE_STOPPED flag tracks whether systemctl
   stop already ran; the trap attempts systemctl start on the existing
   code so the bot is not left permanently down after a mid-deploy
   failure. The flag is cleared whenever a successful start or rollback
   start fires.

2. npm downtime risk: npm install / npm ci is now wrapped in the same
   conditional guard pattern used for git fetch/reset. On npm failure
   the script logs the full npm output, notifies admins, restarts the
   service on the existing node_modules, and exits 1 — bot comes back
   up rather than staying down.

3. Broad .env export: replaced `set -o allexport; source .env;
   set +o allexport` with targeted grep extraction of only BOT_TOKEN
   and ADMIN_IDS. All other .env variables are never exported into the
   deploy environment, eliminating the risk of unintentional or
   malicious variable leakage.

scripts/disk-protect.sh — two fixes:

4. Safety-check logic bug: CRITICAL_OK is now set to false (not left
   as the initial true) when a critical file is found to be missing.
   The subsequent `if [[ "$CRITICAL_OK" != "true" ]]` branch now
   actually fires and emits the warning as intended.

5. Deletion logging suppression: all `find ... -delete -print | while
   read` patterns replaced with a delete_found() helper that uses
   `find ... -print0` + process substitution + `while IFS= read -r
   -d ''` + `rm -f` in the loop body. This is reliable on both GNU
   and BSD find, handles filenames with spaces/special chars, and
   guarantees the log entry is written for every file actually deleted.
   The same null-delimited pattern is applied to compress (step 2)
   and /tmp cleanup (step 6).

Subject: [PATCH 11/16] fix: deploy step-notifications and GitHub Actions
 pipeline
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- /deploy command: pass process.env to spawn() so deploy.sh inherits
  BOT_TOKEN and ADMIN_IDS — previously all send_admin() calls silently
  returned 0 because the child process had no credentials

- deploy.sh .env parsing: only read from .env when vars are NOT already
  in the environment; when spawned from the bot they're inherited so
  we must not overwrite them; also switch from tr-based quote stripping
  to sed for cleaner surrounding-quote removal

- GitHub Actions deploy job: remove environment: production block which
  can gate the job behind manual approval if the environment has
  protection rules configured — all secrets are repository-level

Subject: [PATCH 12/16] ci: overhaul deploy job with inline commands, env
 approval gate, and granular Telegram notifications
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Add `environment: Production` to require manual approval gate before VPS deploy
- Replace deploy.sh invocation with fully inline deployment commands (git fetch/reset, npm ci, systemctl stop/start)
- Add cleanup of stray Node processes (pkill) before service restart
- Add dedicated "Notify — deploy job started" step at the top of the deploy job
- Add Telegram notification after pre-deploy health snapshot
- Add per-phase Telegram alerts: key attempt, key success, password fallback triggered, password success, and full failure with action required
- Move post-deploy health check (30s) before rollback/final-report steps; add leading "⏳ in 30s" notification
- Update rollback to use same inline style (stop, pkill, reset, start) with "Starting Rollback" + "Rollback Complete" notifications
- Remove duration field from final deploy report (not available in deploy job scope)

- Add promoStore.cooldownDays (Feature 10: per-user promo claim cooldown)
- Add approvedGroupsStore Set (Feature 8: validated group whitelist)
- Add broadcastFailedUsers array (Feature 5: permanent broadcast failure tracking)
- Add referralStore.archivedBoosts array for expired boost history
- Extend createDefaultUser with: streak, lastWeeklyBoostDmAt, language,
  unreachable, giveawayHistory, and supportTicket fields
- Extend serializeGiveaway with paused (Feature 1) and winningSeed (Feature 7)
- Update createRuntimeStateSnapshot to persist new stores and fields
- Update loadRuntimeState to restore approvedGroupsStore, broadcastFailedUsers,
  promoStore.cooldownDays, and referralStore.archivedBoosts
- Update getUser migration block to backfill new fields on existing users,
  including language detection from ctx.from.language_code

Subject: [PATCH 14/16] feat: implement all 26 bot feature upgrades

Admin features:
- Feature 1: Live giveaway pause/resume (/gw_pause, /gw_resume + inline callbacks)
- Feature 2: Internal eligibility scanner (/scan_eligibility)
- Feature 3: Auto-expiring referral boosts cron (hourly expiry + archive)
- Feature 4: Onboarding funnel analytics (/funnel)
- Feature 5: Broadcast queue with retries (/broadcast_retry, /broadcast_failed)
- Feature 7: Manual winner picker with cryptographic seed (/pick_winner)
- Feature 8: Group validation whitelist (/approve_group, /unapprove_group, /list_groups)
- Feature 9: Admin activity log store + /admin_log command
- Feature 10: Per-user promo cooldown manager (/promo_cooldown)
- Feature 11: Discord step monitor (/discord_stats)
- Feature 12: Auto-generated giveaway summary card (/gw_graphic)

User features:
- Feature 13: Stuck-user guided checklist (/stuck)
- Feature 14: Fix-My-Account wizard (/fixaccount)
- Feature 15: Discord step confirmation command (/discord_confirm)
- Feature 16: Personalized giveaway feed (/mygiveaways)
- Feature 17: Auto-DM eligibility fix on group giveaway join failure
- Feature 18: Daily streak check-in with XP + milestone badges (/checkin)
- Feature 19: Multi-metric community leaderboard (/top)
- Feature 20: Referral boost meter with progress bar (/boostmeter)
- Feature 21: Per-giveaway eligibility check (/eligible, gw_elig_check callback)
- Feature 22: Private giveaway join history (/gwhistory) + recorded on gw_join
- Feature 23: Promo eligibility check with cooldown awareness (/promocheck)
- Feature 24: Language detection and info (/language)
- Feature 25: DM-only multi-step support portal (/support, support_type callbacks)
- Feature 26: Weekly auto-DM boost reminder cron (respects unreachable/optout)

Also:
- gw_join now records giveawayHistory entry on each join
- gw_join triggers dmEligibilityFix DM when user fails eligibility from group chat
- Support ticket step-2 description captured in bot.on('text') handler
- Startup block wired with Feature 3 (hourly) and Feature 26 (weekly) crons

Subject: [PATCH 15/16] fix: guard journalctl vacuum pipeline against non-fatal
 failure

With set -euo pipefail, a failed journalctl --vacuum-size (e.g.
journald not running, insufficient permissions) would abort the
entire disk-protect.sh run before steps 5+ could execute.

Added || warn fallback so the failure is logged but non-fatal,
consistent with how the npm cache step already handles errors.

Subject: [PATCH 16/16] fix: harden disk-protect APP_DIR, .env parser, ERR
 trap, and YAML syntax

- scripts/disk-protect.sh: derive APP_DIR from the script's own location
  via BASH_SOURCE so the script targets the correct install directory
  regardless of where it is invoked from (was hardcoded).

- deploy.sh: replace fragile grep/cut/sed .env parsing with a dedicated
  _parse_env_value helper that handles 'export KEY=val', inline comments
  (space-prefixed '#'), single/double-quoted values, and CRLF endings.

- deploy.sh: use ${_SERVICE_STOPPED:-false} in the ERR trap so a future
  re-ordering of the script (or a very early failure) can never cause an
  unexpected recovery-start attempt; also tightened the BASH_LINENO
  comment to clarify bash 4.0+ behaviour.

- .github/workflows/deploy.yml: fix YAML syntax error (line 165) caused
  by multi-line Telegram notification strings whose continuation lines
  fell below the block-scalar indentation level, ending the run: | block
  prematurely; all notification messages now built with $'\n' variable
  concatenation, keeping every line within the required indent.
