WhatsApp (community/Baileys) joins the setup:auto channel picker, with
the same clack-native UX discipline as Telegram and Discord:
- setup/channels/whatsapp.ts — driver. Collects auth method (QR terminal
or pairing code), runs the auth step, renders QR blocks in-place with
ANSI cursor-rewind on rotation so the terminal doesn't fill up with
stale codes, reads creds.me.id for the bot phone, restarts the service,
asks for the operator's personal phone (defaulting to the authed
number), writes ASSISTANT_HAS_OWN_NUMBER=true when they differ
(dedicated mode), and hands off to init-first-agent.
- setup/whatsapp-auth.ts — forked standalone auth step. Channels-branch
version had a browser-QR path with an HTTP server + <canvas> QR
renderer; stripped entirely (headless/SSH users hit dead ends too
often, and the extra deps complicate install). The remaining terminal
QR emits raw QR strings in WHATSAPP_AUTH_QR blocks so the parent
driver owns the rendering. Pairing-code path retained. Status blocks
now use the runner's vocabulary (success/skipped/failed) so spawnStep
sets ok correctly; WhatsApp-specific UI text ("WhatsApp linked", "You
chat") lives in the driver.
- setup/add-whatsapp.sh — non-interactive installer, mirror of
add-telegram.sh. Fetches the adapter + groups step from the channels
branch (whatsapp-auth.ts stays local, pair-telegram.ts pattern),
installs pinned baileys/qrcode/pino, registers the steps in
setup/index.ts's STEPS map. No service restart (adapter factory
returns null until creds exist).
Cross-channel fixes bundled:
- scripts/init-first-agent.ts: always addMember(user, agentGroup) for
the target user so subsequent wirings (not the first) pass the access
gate. Telegram wiring first → Discord/WhatsApp second was dropping
every inbound with accessReason='not_member' because only the first
user gets owner. namespacedPlatformId also passes through JID-format
raws (contains '@') so WhatsApp's bare <phone>@s.whatsapp.net matches
what the adapter stores.
- setup/service.ts: launchctl unload-then-load instead of bare load (bare
load errors 'already loaded' when a prior plist was cached, keeping
launchd on the OLD ProgramArguments even after the file on disk
changed). systemctl start → restart (start is a no-op on an active
unit, swallowing unit-file edits).
- setup/add-telegram.sh: removed the in-script open "tg://resolve"
block. The driver (setup/channels/telegram.ts) now owns the deep-link,
gated on a p.confirm so the browser can't steal focus unexpectedly.
- setup/channels/discord.ts + setup/channels/telegram.ts: every browser
open goes through confirmThenOpen (new shared helper in
setup/lib/browser.ts) — operator presses Enter before their browser
takes focus. Telegram switched from tg://resolve?domain= to
https://t.me/<bot> which works everywhere.

Mirror of the Telegram flow but without a pairing step — Discord
exposes enough via the bot token that we only need one paste from the
operator, with every other identity field derived:
GET /users/@me → bot username (sanity check)
GET /oauth2/applications/@me → application id, verify_key
(public key), owner {id, username}
POST /users/@me/channels → DM channel id
After confirming "Is @<owner_username> your Discord account?" the flow
invites the bot to a server (OAuth URL + open + confirm, gating so the
welcome DM can actually reach the operator), installs the adapter, opens
the DM channel, and hands off to init-first-agent with
--channel discord --platform-id discord:@me:<dmChannelId>. The existing
init-first-agent welcome-over-CLI-socket path delivers the greeting
through the normal adapter pipeline — no Discord-specific code in the
welcome logic.
Fallbacks: if the app is team-owned (no owner object) or the operator
declines the confirmation, a Dev Mode walkthrough + user-id paste prompt
takes over.
Adds:
- setup/add-discord.sh (non-interactive installer, mirror of
add-telegram.sh minus pair-step registration)
- setup/channels/discord.ts (operator-facing flow)
- setup/auto.ts: Discord option in askChannelChoice + dispatch

Content pass: every user-facing line is rewritten from the perspective
of someone trying NanoClaw for the first time. Phase labels and devops
framing are gone. Examples:
"Environment OK" → "Your system looks good."
"Container image ready" → "Sandbox ready."
"OneCLI installed" → "OneCLI vault ready."
"Anthropic credential" → "Claude account"
"Mount allowlist in place" → "Access rules set."
"Service installed/running" → "NanoClaw is running."
"Wiring the terminal agent" → "Setting up your terminal chat…"
"Setup complete" → "You're ready! Enjoy NanoClaw."
Long-running steps get a one-sentence "why" that teaches a NanoClaw
differentiator while the user waits:
bootstrap → "NanoClaw is small and runs entirely on your machine.
Yours to modify."
container → "Your assistant lives in its own sandbox. It can only
see what you explicitly share."
onecli → "Your assistant never gets your API keys directly. The
vault adds them to approved requests as they leave the
sandbox."
OneCLI is now named explicitly and framed as "your agent's vault" in
the install step, the paste-auth save step, the subscription-auth
banner, and their associated failure hints.
Auth split (option b: explicit step name on fail): the auth-method
choice moves from the bash menu in register-claude-token.sh into a
clack select. Only the subscription path still breaks out to the
interactive TTY for `claude setup-token`; paste-based OAuth tokens and
API keys stay in clack via p.password() and register directly via
`onecli secrets create`. register-claude-token.sh is scoped down to
the subscription flow only.
nanoclaw.sh: dropped the "Phase 1 / Phase 2" labels. The wordmark and
subtitle now print bash-side so setup:auto skips repeating them and
the flow reads as one continuous sequence. Bootstrap label is
"Installing the basics" with a dim gutter-line "why" preamble. pnpm's
`> nanoclaw@X setup:auto` preamble is suppressed via --silent.
Em-dash pass on user-facing copy: every em-dash that functions as an
em-dash in a user-visible string is replaced with period, semicolon,
comma, or parens. Code comments and JSDoc are untouched.

auto.ts had grown to 923 lines with ~10 interleaved responsibilities.
Split into three focused modules, keeping auto.ts as a pure step
sequencer:
- setup/lib/runner.ts (325 lines) — spawn + stream-parse + spinner-wrap
primitives. Exports: spawnStep, spawnQuiet, runQuietStep,
runQuietChild, runUnderSpinner (internal), StatusStream, types
(Fields, Block, StepResult, SpinnerLabels, QuietChildResult),
writeStepEntry, summariseTerminalFields, dumpTranscriptOnFailure,
fail(), ensureAnswer().
- setup/lib/theme.ts (39 lines) — brand palette (brand, brandBold,
brandChip) with USE_ANSI / TRUECOLOR gating, so both auto.ts and
channel flows can render the NanoClaw cyan without duplicating the
detection.
- setup/channels/telegram.ts (277 lines) — runTelegramChannel(displayName)
owns the full flow: BotFather instructions, token paste + validation
(via getMe), install script, pair-telegram streaming UI (code card +
attempt checkpoints), agent-name prompt, init-first-agent wiring.
auto.ts drops to 376 lines. main() reads as a clean sequence of
`if (!skip.has(X)) await Xstep(...)` blocks.
fail() now takes the step name explicitly — no module-level
failingStep state. Every call site is grep-friendly and self-contained
(fail('container', msg, hint)).
Typechecks clean. Smoke-tested end-to-end: intro, mounts step,
progression log, and outro all render the same as before the split.
