Free-response channels already bypassed the @mention gate so users could
chat inline with the bot, but auto-threading still fired on every
message — spinning off a thread per message and defeating the
lightweight-chat purpose.
Fix: fold `is_free_channel` into `skip_thread` so threading is skipped
whenever the channel is in DISCORD_FREE_RESPONSE_CHANNELS (via env or
discord.free_response_channels in config.yaml).
Net change: one line in _handle_message + one regression test.
Partially addresses #9399. Authored by @Hypn0sis (salvaged from PR #9650;
the bundled 'smart' auto-thread mode from that PR was dropped in favor
of deterministic true/false semantics).
- Store source metadata on /voice channel join so voice input shares the
same session as the linked text channel conversation
- Treat voice-linked text channels as free-response (skip @mention and
auto-thread) while voice is active
- Scope the voice-linked exemption to the exact bound channel, not
sibling threads
- Guard signal handler registration in start_gateway() for non-main
threads (prevents RuntimeError when gateway runs in a daemon thread)
- Clean up _voice_sources on leave_voice_channel
Salvaged from PR #3475 by twilwa (Modal runtime portions excluded).
Set _text_batch_delay_seconds = 0 on test adapter fixtures so messages
dispatch immediately (bypassing async batching). This preserves the
existing synchronous assertion patterns while the batching logic is
tested separately in test_text_batching.py.
Two fixes for Discord exec approval:
1. Register /approve and /deny as native Discord slash commands so they
appear in Discord's command picker (autocomplete). Previously they
were only handled as text commands, so users saw 'no commands found'
when typing /approve.
2. Wire up the existing ExecApprovalView button UI (was dead code):
- ExecApprovalView now calls resolve_gateway_approval() to actually
unblock the waiting agent thread when a button is clicked
- Gateway's _approval_notify_sync() detects adapters with
send_exec_approval() and routes through the button UI
- Added 'Allow Session' button for parity with /approve session
- send_exec_approval() now accepts session_key and metadata for
thread support
- Graceful fallback to text-based /approve prompt if button send fails
Also updates test mocks to include grey/secondary ButtonStyle and
purple Color (used by new button styles).
Two changes to align Discord behavior with Slack:
1. Auto-thread on @mention (default: true)
- When someone @mentions the bot in a server channel, a thread is
automatically created from their message and the response goes there.
- Each thread gets its own isolated session (like Slack).
- Configurable via discord.auto_thread in config.yaml (default: true)
or DISCORD_AUTO_THREAD env var (env takes precedence).
- DMs and existing threads are unaffected.
2. Skip @mention in bot-participated threads
- Once the bot has responded in a thread (auto-created or manually
entered), subsequent messages in that thread no longer require
@mention. Users can just type normally.
- Tracked via in-memory set (_bot_participated_threads). After a
gateway restart, users need to @mention once to re-establish.
- Threads the bot hasn't participated in still require @mention.
Config change:
discord:
auto_thread: true # new, added to DEFAULT_CONFIG
Tests: 7 new tests covering auto-thread default, disable, bot thread
participation tracking, and mention skip logic. All 903 gateway tests pass.
The mock's app_commands SimpleNamespace lacked choices and Choice attrs,
causing xdist test ordering failures when this mock loaded before
test_discord_slash_commands.
- Add /thread slash command that creates a Discord thread and starts a
new Hermes session in it. The starter message (if provided) becomes
the first user input in the new session.
- Add discord.auto_thread config option (DISCORD_AUTO_THREAD env var):
when enabled, every message in a text channel automatically creates
a thread, allowing parallel isolated sessions.
- Fix Discord media method signatures to accept metadata kwarg
(send_voice, send_image_file, send_image) — prevents TypeError
when the base adapter passes platform metadata.
- Fix test mock isolation: add app_commands and ForumChannel to
discord mocks so tests pass in full-suite runs.
Based on PRs #866 and #1109 by insecurejezza, modified per review:
removed /channel command (unsafe), added auto_thread feature,
made /thread dispatch new sessions.

- Forum parent channel IDs now match free-response list (add a forum
channel ID and all its threads respond without mention)
- Better thread chat names: 'Guild / forum / thread' for forum threads
- Add discord.require_mention and discord.free_response_channels to
config.yaml (bridged to env vars, env vars still override)
- Keep require_mention defaulting to true (safe for shared servers)
Cherry-picked from PR #867 by insecurejezza with default fix and
config.yaml integration.
