Commitment Tracker

The Rule

If your reply contains a commitment → execute it NOW, before sending the reply.

No deferred promises. No "I'll do it after". Either do it in this turn, or don't say it.

Commitment Trigger Words

Hebrew: אדווח, אעדכן, אשלח, אוסיף, אחזור אליך, אבדוק ואחזור, אתעדכן, אשאיר הודעה, אעביר

English: I'll send, I'll report, I'll update, I'll follow up, I'll check, I'll let you know, I'll message, I'll notify

Protocol

Before finalizing any reply:

1. Scan your reply for trigger words above
2. If found → execute the committed action now (send the message, update the file, etc.)
3. Only after execution → include the result in your reply (e.g. "שלחתי ✅" not "אשלח")
4. If you can't execute now → rewrite the reply to not promise it (say "לא יכולה לשלוח כרגע כי X")

Anti-Patterns

❌ "אדווח לנתנאל" → without actually messaging him
❌ "אעדכן את הקבוצה" → without actually sending to the group
❌ "אשלח לך סיכום" → without actually sending it

Correct Pattern

✅ Execute the action → then report: "עדכנתי את נתנאל ✅"
✅ If blocked: "לא יכולה לשלוח כי אין לי את ה-JID — צריכה עזרה"

Fault Tolerance — Intent Log

Before executing any commitment, write an intent record to prevent loss on gateway crash:

COMMITMENTS=/path/to/workspace/data/commitments.jsonl
mkdir -p $(dirname $COMMITMENTS)
echo "{\"ts\":\"$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)\",\"action\":\"DESCRIBE_ACTION\",\"target\":\"TARGET\",\"status\":\"pending\"}" >> $COMMITMENTS

After successful execution, mark done:

# Append a done record (simpler than editing in-place)
echo "{\"ts\":\"$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)\",\"action\":\"DESCRIBE_ACTION\",\"target\":\"TARGET\",\"status\":\"done\"}" >> $COMMITMENTS

Recovery — On Every Session Start / Heartbeat

Scan for unresolved commitments:

python3 -c "
import json
log = '/path/to/workspace/data/commitments.jsonl'
try:
    lines = [json.loads(l) for l in open(log)]
    done_actions = {l['action'] for l in lines if l.get('status')=='done'}
    pending = [l for l in lines if l.get('status')=='pending' and l['action'] not in done_actions]
    if pending:
        for p in pending: print(f\"PENDING: {p['action']} → {p['target']} (since {p['ts']})\")
except FileNotFoundError:
    pass
"

If any pending found → execute immediately and close the loop with the owner.

Cleanup — Delete Done Entries

After recovery scan, remove all done entries — they served their purpose:

python3 -c "
import json
log = '/path/to/workspace/data/commitments.jsonl'
try:
    lines = [json.loads(l) for l in open(log)]
    pending_only = [l for l in lines if l.get('status') != 'done']
    with open(log, 'w') as f:
        for l in pending_only: f.write(json.dumps(l)+'\\n')
except FileNotFoundError:
    pass
"

File only ever contains unresolved commitments — stays near-zero in normal operation.

Scope

Applies to ALL surfaces: DMs, groups, internal actions, cross-PA messages.
No exceptions for "it's obvious" or "they'll understand".
