Summary

This PR fixes two issues seen when using the message tool with the BlueBubbles provider:

  1. Phone-number targets could route to the wrong chat (group instead of DM).

    • Sending to a phone number like +1234567890 could land in an existing group chat that contained that participant (e.g. "Test"), because the provider would pick an existing chat for that handle.
    • We now treat bare phone numbers as DM-style targets for BlueBubbles/iMessage, and avoid treating them as "already-resolved IDs" so the directory can resolve them to a direct chat when available.
    • If the directory can't resolve the phone number, we still fall back to sending directly to the normalized handle.
  2. Cross-context marker prefix leaked internal routing IDs.

    • Messages could be prefixed with internal IDs like [from #bluebubbles:chat_guid:any;-;+1234567890].
    • We now:
      • Stop forcing "group" formatting when building the cross-context marker.
      • Improve directory display lookups to check both groups and users, so DMs resolve to a friendly name/handle when possible.
      • Strip provider prefixes from fallback target display formatting.
      • Preserve friendly display names when they don't look like internal IDs.

Implementation details

  • src/infra/outbound/target-resolver.ts

    • Treat phone numbers as user kind for bluebubbles/imessage.
    • Don't auto-classify phone numbers as "looksLikeId" for those channels (allow directory DM resolution).
    • Add a safe fallback: if no directory match exists, allow direct sending to the normalized handle.
    • lookupDirectoryDisplay now checks both group + user directories.
    • formatTargetDisplay strips provider prefixes (e.g. bluebubbles:) for cleaner labels.
  • src/infra/outbound/outbound-policy.ts

    • Don't force kind: "group" when formatting the cross-context "from …" marker.
  • extensions/bluebubbles/src/channel.ts

    • formatTargetDisplay preserves friendly display names that don't look like internal BlueBubbles IDs.

Test plan

  • pnpm build passes
  • Send message to phone number → routes to DM, not group
  • Cross-context messages show friendly names, not internal IDs

…ng phone numbers

When sending a message to a phone number like +12622102921, the
resolveChatGuidForTarget function was finding and returning a GROUP
CHAT containing that phone number instead of a direct DM chat.

The bug was in the participantMatch fallback logic which matched ANY
chat containing the phone number as a participant, including groups.

This fix adds a check to ensure participantMatch only considers DM
chats (identified by ';-;' separator in the chat GUID). Group chats
(identified by ';+;' separator) are now explicitly excluded from
handle-based matching.

If a phone number only exists in a group chat (no direct DM exists),
the function now correctly returns null, which causes the send to
fail with a clear error rather than accidentally messaging a group.

Added test case to verify this behavior.
…hone numbers

When sending to a phone number that doesn't have an existing chat,
instead of failing with 'chatGuid not found', now automatically creates
a new chat using the /api/v1/chat/new endpoint.

- Added createNewChatWithMessage() helper function
- When resolveChatGuidForTarget returns null for a handle target,
  uses the new chat endpoint with addresses array and message
- Includes helpful error message if Private API isn't enabled
- Only applies to handle targets (phone numbers), not group chats
…kers

When sending cross-context messages via BlueBubbles, the origin marker was
exposing internal chat_guid routing info like '[from bluebubbles:chat_guid:any;-;+19257864429]'.

This adds a formatTargetDisplay() function to the BlueBubbles plugin that:
- Extracts phone numbers from chat_guid formats (iMessage;-;+1234567890 -> +1234567890)
- Normalizes handles for clean display
- Avoids returning raw chat_guid formats containing internal routing metadata

Now cross-context markers show clean identifiers like '[from +19257864429]' instead
of exposing internal routing details to recipients.
Two fixes:

1. Cross-context decoration (e.g., '[from +19257864429]' prefix) was being
   added to ALL messages sent to a different target, even when the agent
   was just composing a new message via the message tool. This decoration
   should only be applied when forwarding/relaying messages between chats.

   Fix: Added skipCrossContextDecoration flag to ChannelThreadingToolContext.
   The message tool now sets this flag to true, so direct sends don't get
   decorated. The buildCrossContextDecoration function checks this flag
   and returns null when set.

2. Aborted requests were still completing because the abort signal wasn't
   being passed through the message tool execution chain.

   Fix: Added abortSignal propagation from message tool → runMessageAction →
   executeSendAction → sendMessage → deliverOutboundPayloads. Added abort
   checks at key points in the chain to fail fast when aborted.

Files changed:
- src/channels/plugins/types.core.ts: Added skipCrossContextDecoration field
- src/infra/outbound/outbound-policy.ts: Check skip flag before decorating
- src/agents/tools/message-tool.ts: Set skip flag, accept and pass abort signal
- src/infra/outbound/message-action-runner.ts: Pass abort signal through
- src/infra/outbound/outbound-send-service.ts: Check and pass abort signal
- src/infra/outbound/message.ts: Pass abort signal to delivery

… internal IDs leaking in cross-context prefix (openclaw#1751)

* fix(bluebubbles): prefer DM resolution + hide routing markers

* fix(bluebubbles): prevent message routing to group chats when targeting phone numbers

When sending a message to a phone number like +12622102921, the
resolveChatGuidForTarget function was finding and returning a GROUP
CHAT containing that phone number instead of a direct DM chat.

If a phone number only exists in a group chat (no direct DM exists),
the function now correctly returns null, which causes the send to
fail with a clear error rather than accidentally messaging a group.

Added test case to verify this behavior.

* feat(bluebubbles): auto-create new DM chats when sending to unknown phone numbers

When sending to a phone number that doesn't have an existing chat,
instead of failing with 'chatGuid not found', now automatically creates
a new chat using the /api/v1/chat/new endpoint.

- Added createNewChatWithMessage() helper function
