A codex review of the branch found seven places where earlier refactor commits changed behavior. Each is restored here with a test:
- base_service imported flood_scope relatively; the local-service loader also runs that file as local_services.base_service, where the import cannot resolve. Now absolute.
- Radio-health fields were initialized after commands and services were built, so a plugin constructor reading is_radio_offline raised. They are now set before any plugin.
- Removing the per-command can_execute overrides made 31 commands honor skip_channel_check, which their overrides had dropped. BaseCommand.honors_skip_channel_check (False on exactly those commands) keeps them enforcing their channel list.
- CommandManager.get_plugin_metadata, WxCommand.get_weather_for_zipcode and PluginLoader.validate_plugin were public compatibility entry points; they are back.
- feed_manager stopped exporting DEFAULT_MAX_FEED_RESPONSE_BYTES and DEFAULT_MAX_PARSED_FEED_ITEMS despite the commit saying it re-exported them; it does now.
- wx and gwx logged companion-location lookup failures at WARNING; the shared helper logged at debug. It now takes the level.
- The INFO 'MESSAGE ROUTING' / 'DIRECT MESSAGE' lines for pubkey-correlated DMs were removed with the dead path_info computation; they are logged again by a log-only helper.
get_config_value converted values in two parallel if/elif ladders (current/old/legacy sections, then legacy enabled aliases). Both now call _read_typed_option, which picks getboolean/getint/getfloat or splits a comma list. The 'value != fallback or has_option' test it replaced was always true, since has_option had just been checked. The unknown-type warning still fires only on the section path, as before.
HelpCommand and CmdCommand carried identical _is_command_valid_for_channel methods; it now lives once on BaseCommand under the same name.
32 commands overrode can_execute only to return False while their own <name>_enabled flag was off and otherwise defer to the base. BaseCommand now has an enabled_attr class attribute naming that flag, which can_execute checks first. Each command keeps reading its flag exactly as before (same section, default and legacy aliases), and code and tests that set help_enabled, webviewer_enabled and the like still work, since the flag is read at call time.
Only overrides that were exactly 'if not self.<flag>: return False; return super().can_execute(...)' were converted, checked by AST. Commands with extra conditions (wx's delegate, joke's dark-joke DM rule, admin-only and DM-only checks, dadjoke's reversed order) keep their overrides. Several of the removed overrides called super().can_execute(message) without passing skip_channel_check; nothing calls them with it set, so honoring it now changes nothing.
- Enhanced `CommandManager` to persist normalized message content, preventing prefix stripping from interfering with command matching.
- Updated `BaseCommand` to skip prefix handling if already normalized, ensuring all commands can be matched correctly.
- Modified `HelpCommand` to ensure unused commands are listed even when command statistics are present, improving user accessibility to all commands.
- Added unit tests to verify the correct behavior of command matching and help command functionality under various scenarios.
- Updated configuration examples to remove command prefix from aliases in `config.ini.example` and documentation.
- Enhanced `CommandManager` to normalize command names and resolve aliases through both direct mapping and plugin keyword mappings.
- Introduced a method in `BaseCommand` to normalize aliases from configuration, ensuring consistency in keyword handling.
- Added tests to verify that aliases resolve correctly from both keyword mappings and runtime keywords without legacy prefixes.

All modules: ruff and mypy cleanup applied (type annotations, imports)
- Replaced direct SQLite connection calls with a context manager in various modules to ensure proper resource management and prevent file descriptor leaks.
- Introduced a new `connection` method in `DBManager` to standardize connection handling.
- Updated all relevant database interactions in modules such as `feed_manager`, `scheduler`, `commands`, and others to utilize the new connection method.
- Improved code readability and maintainability by consolidating connection logic.
- Added a new FAQ section addressing common issues when moving a database to a new install, including schema mismatches, stale operations, and timeout errors.
- Updated error logging in `feed_manager.py` and `scheduler.py` to use `logger.exception` for better traceback visibility during message queue and channel operation errors.
- Improved command help text generation in `command_manager.py` to ensure proper formatting and context filtering based on message length.
- Enhanced command availability checks in `cmd_command.py` and `help_command.py` to respect channel-specific overrides and improve user experience.
- Updated the `get_general_help` method in `CommandManager` to accept a `message` parameter, allowing for context-aware help responses based on the message's channel.
- Modified the `get_available_commands_list` method in `HelpCommand` to filter commands based on the provided message, ensuring only valid commands for the channel are listed.
- Introduced a new method `_is_command_valid_for_channel` to check command validity against the message's channel context, improving command management and user experience.
- Updated the `generate_html` function to include detailed command usage information, including syntax, examples, and parameters for better user guidance.
- Added CSS styles for improved presentation of command usage and parameters in the generated website documentation.
- Enhanced command classes with structured documentation fields, allowing for consistent and informative command descriptions across the platform.
- Implemented a configuration option for enabling or disabling commands across multiple command classes.
- Each command now checks its enabled state before execution, improving control over command availability.
- Updated the configuration loading mechanism to retrieve the enabled state from the config file for commands like Advert, AQI, Catfact, and others.
- Updated the test command response format to include optional phrases.
- Removed the at_phrase command and its references from the command manager and help command.
- Adjusted configuration examples to reflect the new syntax for message acknowledgments.
