Three small follow-ups:
1. HEIC/HEIF/AVIF uploads now rejected at the door
----------------------------------------------------
Symptom: an iPhone-shot image uploaded fine but came through on
WhatsApp without a thumbnail. Bot logs:
failed to obtain extra info
heif: Error while loading plugin: Support for this compression
format has not been built in
Cause: the bot container's Sharp ships without a HEIF/AVIF
decoder, so the thumbnail-extraction step Baileys runs throws and
the message is sent without a preview.
Fix: the upload validator (`validateForWhatsApp`) now rejects the
HEIF family before the file ever reaches the action body. Error
message: "Images are not supported, please re-upload images".
New tests in `lib/whatsapp-media.test.ts`:
- `isUnsupportedImageMime` recognises image/heic, image/heif,
image/heic-sequence, image/avif (case-insensitive).
- `isUnsupportedImageMime` does NOT flag jpeg/png/webp/gif.
- `validateForWhatsApp` rejects a HEIC upload regardless of size,
even below the 5 MB image cap.
2. Desktop sidebar brand is now a link to /
----------------------------------------------------
The mobile header brand pill was already a link to /; the desktop
sidebar version was a static <div>, so clicking the "cm WhatsApp
Bot" header in the sidebar did nothing. Wrapped in <Link href="/">
with `aria-label="Go to dashboard"` and a hover background to
make the affordance obvious.
3. Activity tab strip switched from full-width to scrollable
----------------------------------------------------
The activity page has six tabs (All / Success / Partial / Failed
/ Skipped / Archived) — packing them into a `w-full` row at h-8
left every label squeezed to ~50px on mobile. Wrapped the
<TabsList> in an `overflow-x-auto` scroller (with negative
horizontal margins so the strip extends to the page edges and the
first/last tabs aren't clipped) so each tab keeps a comfortable
touch target on phones; on desktop the row fits naturally and no
scroll bar appears.
Reminders page kept its full-width layout — only 4 tabs there,
they don't crowd.

cm WhatsApp Reminder Bot
Self-hosted WhatsApp reminder bot. Pairs multiple WhatsApp accounts via Telegram-delivered QR codes and sends scheduled reminders to groups.
Status
Plan 1 complete. Foundation, DB schema, and Telegram-driven WhatsApp pairing are working end-to-end. Reminder scheduling, the web dashboard, and production deploy are upcoming plans (docs/superpowers/plans/).
What's working today:
- Single-operator Telegram bot with a whitelist + audit log of every command.
- BotFather-style menu navigation:
/menuopens a single message that edits in place as you navigate. - Pair a new WhatsApp account with
/menu→ 📡 Pair New → reply with a label. QR is delivered to Telegram and refreshed in place as it expires. - Browse paired accounts with 📒 Accounts. Tap an account → see groups, send a test text message, or unpair.
- Group sync runs at pairing and on every Baileys
groups.upsert/groups.updateevent, plus a manual 🔄 Refresh button. Removed groups are pruned automatically. - Auto-reconnect on transient drops; restart-survival via Baileys
useMultiFileAuthState(no QR rescan needed across container restarts as long as WhatsApp hasn't logged the device out).
Host requirements
Only Docker. No host Node, pnpm, or any other language toolchain — everything runs in containers via the long-lived tools service.
Architecture in one paragraph
Two app containers and one external dependency. bot (Node.js) holds the live Baileys WhatsApp sessions, the grammy Telegram bot, and (in plan 2) a pg-boss scheduler. web (Next.js, plan 3) is stateless UI + API. tools is a long-running Node 22 + pnpm sidecar used for installs/tests/typechecks/migrations so the host doesn't need a Node toolchain. Postgres lives external at 192.168.0.210 in a wabot database. All cross-service communication goes through Postgres (LISTEN/NOTIFY for events, table writes for state).
Full design spec: docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-03-whatsapp-bot-design.md
Quick start (dev)
Prerequisites: Docker, the wabot database + waBot role on 192.168.0.210 (with a pg_hba.conf line permitting 192.168.0.0/24), and a Telegram bot token from @BotFather.
# 1. Configure env
cp envs/.env.example .env.development
# edit .env.development: real DATABASE_URL, TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN, your TG user ID
scripts/gen_auth_secret.sh --write
# 2. Bring up the tools container, install deps
NO_SUDO=1 scripts/dev.sh up
NO_SUDO=1 scripts/dev.sh pnpm install
# 3. Apply migrations and seed your operator row
NO_SUDO=1 scripts/db.sh migrate
NO_SUDO=1 scripts/db.sh seed
# 4. Watch the bot service
NO_SUDO=1 scripts/dev.sh logs bot
In Telegram, message your dev bot /menu, tap 📡 Pair New, reply with a label, scan the QR.
NO_SUDO=1 is the right setting if your user is in the docker group (the default for this repo). Drop it if you need sudo docker.

Scripts
All pnpm/tsx/drizzle-kit invocations run inside the tools container, so no host Node is needed.
