OpenAB — Agent Guidelines

You are contributing to OpenAB, a lightweight Rust-based ACP harness bridging Discord, Slack, and webhook platforms to coding CLIs over stdio JSON-RPC.

Message Flow

Discord/Slack event
  → channel allowlist check
  → user allowlist check (bot messages bypass this)
  → bot message filter (off/mentions/all)
  → thread detection (thread_metadata = thread, NOT parent_id)
  → bot ownership check (bot_owns = thread creator matches bot user ID)
  → multibot detection (allowUserMessages mode)
  → handle_message → pool.get_or_create → ACP JSON-RPC
