Implements a cursor-based notification inbox that surfaces actionable
events from others since the user's last `lore me` invocation. This
addresses the core UX need: "what happened while I was away?"
Event Sources (three-way UNION query):
1. Others' comments on user's open issues/MRs
2. @mentions on ANY item (not restricted to owned items)
3. Assignment/review-request system notes mentioning user
Mention Detection:
- SQL LIKE pre-filter for performance, then regex validation
- Word-boundary-aware: rejects "alice" in "@alice-bot" or "alice@corp.com"
- Domain rejection: "@alice.com" not matched (prevents email false positives)
- Punctuation tolerance: "@alice," "@alice." "(@ alice)" all match
Cursor Watermark Pattern:
- Global watermark computed from ALL projects before --project filtering
- Ensures --project display filter doesn't permanently skip events
- Cursor advances only after successful render (no data loss on errors)
- First run establishes baseline (no inbox shown), subsequent runs show delta
Output:
- Human: color-coded event badges, grouped by entity, actor + timestamp
- Robot: standard envelope with since_last_check object containing
cursor_iso, total_event_count, and groups array with nested events
CLI additions:
- --reset-cursor flag: clears cursor (next run shows no new events)
- Autocorrect: --reset-cursor added to known me command flags
Tests cover:
- Mention with trailing comma/period/parentheses (should match)
- Email-like text "@alice.com" (should NOT match)
- Domain-like text "@alice.example" (should NOT match)
