S4. BaseCommand and the 40 bundled overrides that took no argument now take `message: MeshMessage | None = None`, matching joke and rain, which already use the message. None of the 40 bodies read it, so their help text is unchanged. help and command_manager keep their TypeError retry, since local plugins may still implement get_help_text(self). For bundled commands the retry no longer runs: `help <command>` calls get_help_text(message) once instead of failing and calling it again. A new test pins the signature for every bundled command class. The offline smoke run against the real config produces the same help text for all 46 commands.
When the radio firmware is unresponsive but not yet flagged as zombie,
send_advert() would hang indefinitely on the main event loop, blocking
all packet processing (no data in/out) for 60+ seconds until the
scheduler thread's future.result() timed out — but that only timed
out the waiting thread, not the coroutine itself.
Fix: wrap every send_advert() call that runs on the event loop with
asyncio.wait_for(timeout=30.0). On timeout in the interval-advert
path, _radio_fail_count is incremented so repeated timeouts feed into
the existing zombie-detection threshold.
BUG-001: web viewer login/session auth (in web viewer commit)
BUG-002: db_manager ALTER TABLE for missing channel_operations and
feed_message_queue columns on startup
BUG-015: scheduler thread blocked on future.result(); replaced all
blocking waits with add_done_callback (fire-and-forget)
BUG-016: reboot_radio sends meshcore.commands.reboot() before disconnect
BUG-017: radio disconnect uses asyncio.wait_for(timeout=10)
BUG-022: custom asyncio loop exception handler suppresses IndexError
from meshcore parser at DEBUG level
BUG-024: last_db_backup_run updated after each run; 2-min startup
window; last-run seeded from DB on restart
BUG-025: send_channel_message retries up to 2 times (2s delay) on
no_event_received via _is_no_event_received() helper
BUG-026: split_text_into_chunks() and get_max_message_length() added
to CommandManager; keyword dispatch uses send_response_chunked()
BUG-028: byte_data = b"" initialised before try block in
decode_meshcore_packet to prevent UnboundLocalError in except handler
TraceCommand: path nodes reversed and return path truncated; fixed
format_elapsed_display: UTC normalisation before elapsed computation (#75)
RepeaterManager: auto_manage_contacts guard before any purge logic (#50)
Command aliases: [Aliases] config section injects shorthands at startup
JSON logging: _JsonFormatter; json_logging = true in [Logging]
Structured JSON logging compatible with Loki, Elasticsearch, Splunk
Discord bridge, Telegram bridge, and all service plugins updated
MeshGraph edge promotion logic corrected
Shutdown: scheduler and meshcore disconnect joined cleanly; log spam fixed
All modules: ruff and mypy cleanup applied (type annotations, imports)
- 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.
- Replace next_cmd approach with direct meshcore.commands.send_advert(flood=True)
- Add 2-second delay before sending startup advert to ensure connection is established
- Simplify error handling since send_advert() is more reliable
- Apply same fix to manual advert command for consistency
- This should resolve the issue where flood adverts weren't being sent on startup
