<current_state> Phase 5 Plan 03 is in progress. Task 1 (README) is complete. Task 2 is a human verification checkpoint that was paused mid-testing. User was testing end-to-end functionality and found/fixed several issues during the testing session. </current_state>

<completed_work>

Plan 05-01: NLU Cleanup (COMPLETE)

• Removed Claude/NLU nodes from workflow
• Added Keyword Router with 7 routes (/start, status, restart, start, stop, update, logs)
• Added Show Menu node (simplified to text-only after keyboard issues)

Plan 05-02: Error Hardening (COMPLETE)

• Standardized error messages to terse format
• Note: Credential migration was reverted - n8n IF nodes don't support $credentials

Plan 05-03: Deployment README (IN PROGRESS)

• Task 1: README.md written ✓
• Task 2: End-to-end testing - PAUSED (checkpoint)

Bug Fixes During Testing Session

1. Show Menu 404 - Switched from HTTP Request to native Telegram node
2. Show Menu HTML parse error - Changed <name> to [name] to avoid HTML parsing
3. Container matching - Fixed to prioritize exact matches (jellyplex vs plex issue)
4. Credential reference - Reverted to hardcoded user ID (n8n IF nodes don't support $credentials)
5. Update missing old image removal - Added image cleanup after successful update
6. Update rate limiting - Added pull error detection and acknowledgment message </completed_work>

Plan 05-03 Task 2: End-to-end testing

Human verification checkpoint - user needs to test:

1. Menu: Send /start or unknown text → see command list
2. Status: Type "status" → see container list
3. Start: Type "start " → container starts
4. Stop: Type "stop " → container stops
5. Restart: Type "restart " → container restarts
6. Update: Type "update " → see "Updating...", then result
7. Logs: Type "logs " → see log output
8. Auth: Message from different account → no response

User was mid-testing when paused. </remaining_work>

<decisions_made>

• Keyboard abandoned - Native Telegram node's replyKeyboard didn't work; using text menu instead
• Hardcoded user ID - n8n IF nodes don't support credentials; user must edit ID in workflow directly
• Exact match priority - Container matching now checks exact match first, then substring
• Update acknowledgment - Send "Updating..." immediately to confirm long-running command received
• Old image removal - Mimic Unraid behavior: delete old image after successful update
• Pull error detection - Check for rate limiting/errors before continuing update flow </decisions_made>

None currently - all issues found during testing were resolved. This was a testing/debugging session during Phase 5 Plan 03's human verification checkpoint. The user was testing the bot end-to-end and found several issues that were fixed on the fly. All fixes have been committed. The workflow is substantially more robust now.

Key commits from this session:

• d03e79c: Update acknowledgment + pull error handling
• 0839c44: Old image removal after update
• 004911e: Exact match priority for container names
• 0b6dfe6, 0b140c4, 6defb2d: Show Menu fixes
• 32fd965: Reverted credential reference (doesn't work in IF nodes)

<next_action> Resume testing: User should re-import the latest workflow and continue the end-to-end verification from the checkpoint. After all 8 tests pass, type "approved" to complete Plan 03 and trigger phase verification.

Command: /gsd:resume-work </next_action>
