hermes - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Bug]: slack messages on 0.11 still can't access previous messages of a thread after being tagged [1 comments, 2 participants]

Additional Logs / Traceback (optional)

TL;DR

The Hermes agent likely needs to fetch the entire thread history from Slack when tagged, rather than relying on the context provided in the tag event.

Guidance

• Review the Slack OAuth permissions to ensure the Hermes agent has the necessary rights to read thread history.
• Investigate the Slack API endpoint used to fetch messages when the agent is tagged, and consider using an endpoint that retrieves the entire thread, such as conversations.replies.
• Check the agent's logic for handling thread messages to ensure it's not discarding or ignoring previous messages in the thread.
• Verify that the agent.log and debug report provide sufficient information about the API requests made to Slack and the responses received.

Example

No code example is provided due to lack of specific implementation details.

Notes

The fix may depend on the specific Slack API version and endpoints used by the Hermes agent, as well as the agent's internal logic for handling thread messages.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Modify the Hermes agent to fetch the entire thread history from Slack when tagged, using an endpoint like conversations.replies, to ensure it has the necessary context.
