Remove unused imports (F401) and duplicate/shadowed import
redefinitions (F811) across the codebase using ruff's safe
autofixes. No behavioral changes -- imports only.
- ~1400 safe autofixes applied across 644 files (net -1072 lines)
- __init__.py re-exports preserved (excluded from F401 removal so
public re-export surfaces stay intact)
- Re-exports that are imported or monkeypatched by tests but look
unused in their defining module are kept with explicit # noqa:
F401 (gateway/run.py load_dotenv; run_agent re-exports from
agent.message_sanitization, agent.context_compressor,
agent.retry_utils, agent.prompt_builder, agent.process_bootstrap,
agent.codex_responses_adapter)
- Unsafe F841 (unused-variable) fixes deliberately skipped -- those
can change behavior when the RHS has side effects
- ruff lints remain disabled in pyproject.toml (only PLW1514 is
selected); this is a one-time cleanup, not a config change
Verification:
- python -m compileall: clean
- pytest --collect-only: all 27161 tests collect (zero import errors)
- core entry points import clean (run_agent, model_tools, cli,
toolsets, hermes_state, batch_runner, gateway)
- static scan: every name any test imports directly from an edited
module still resolves
Three changes that address the poor WhatsApp experience reported by users:
1. Reclassify WhatsApp from TIER_LOW to TIER_MEDIUM in display_config.py
— enables streaming and tool progress via the existing Baileys /edit
bridge endpoint. Users now see progressive responses instead of
minutes of silence followed by a wall of text.
2. Lower MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH from 65536 to 4096 and add proper chunking
— send() now calls format_message() and truncate_message() before
sending, then loops through chunks with a small delay between them.
The base class truncate_message() already handles code block boundary
detection (closes/reopens fences at chunk boundaries). reply_to is
only set on the first chunk.
3. Override format_message() with WhatsApp-specific markdown conversion
— converts **bold** to *bold*, ~~strike~~ to ~strike~, headers to
bold text, and [links](url) to text (url). Code blocks and inline
code are protected from conversion via placeholder substitution.
Together these fix the two user complaints:
- 'sends the whole code all the time' → now chunked at 4K with proper
formatting
- 'terminal gets interrupted and gets cooked' → streaming + tool progress
give visual feedback so users don't accidentally interrupt with
follow-up messages
