claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix Feature request: Discord plugin should show typing indicator during full processing time [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

Implement a periodic typing indicator refresh mechanism to provide continuous feedback during message processing.

Guidance

• Investigate the current implementation of the typing indicator to understand why it only appears briefly and disappears.
• Consider introducing a configurable interval (e.g., typingIntervalSeconds) to control how often the typing indicator is refreshed.
• Send a typing indicator as soon as a message is received and refresh it at regular intervals until the response is sent.
• Review the OpenClaw implementation of typingMode and typingIntervalSeconds for inspiration on how to achieve the desired behavior.

Example

// Pseudo-code example of periodic typing indicator refresh
setInterval(() => {
  if (messageBeingProcessed) {
    sendTypingIndicator();
  }
}, typingIntervalSeconds * 1000);

Notes

The exact implementation details may vary depending on the programming language and framework used. This guidance assumes a similar architecture to OpenClaw.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Implement a periodic typing indicator refresh mechanism to provide continuous feedback during message processing, as this will improve the user experience and provide a more responsive interaction with the bot.
