Cherry-pick from upstream PR #2280 (commit 92d4198)
- Add STATUS_EXPIRY_SECONDS constant (24h = 86400s)
- Skip retry attempts for status broadcast messages older than 24h
- Saves resources by not retrying messages that are already expired

Added metrics tracking for:
- message_retries_total: Incremented when message retry is attempted
- message_failures_total: Incremented when max retries reached or encryption fails
Note: messages_queued metric is not applicable as this implementation
sends messages directly without an explicit queue system.
Added recordConnectionError() function and integrated it into socket.ts
to track connection errors by type:
- connection_closed
- connection_lost
- connection_replaced
- timed_out
- logged_out
- bad_session
- restart_required
- multidevice_mismatch
- error_{code} for other status codes
- Replace Function type with proper VersionCacheLogger interface
- Add documentation for cacheFilePath about container/serverless limitations
- Handle fetchInProgress in clearVersionCache to prevent cache restoration
- Add deduplication check in refreshVersionCache
- Remove unused fetchLatestWaWebVersion import
- Return success status from refreshVersionCache to detect fallback
- Fix inefficient getCachedVersion call - use cacheStatus.version directly
- Remove as any casts by using logger adapter pattern
- Don't downgrade version on transient network errors
Fixes from code review:
1. Fix #1,6: Use connection.update event instead of overriding sock.end()
- Listens for 'close' event to cleanup interval
- Handles both explicit close and internal disconnections
2. Fix#3: Exit code 2 when fetch fails (not 0)
- Allows CI to distinguish success/error/fetch-failed
- Properly signals fetch failures to workflows
3. Fix#4: Document revision bounds + add env vars
- Added detailed comments explaining min/max revision values
- Made configurable via WA_MIN_REVISION/WA_MAX_REVISION env vars
4. Fix #5,9: Remove unused fetchLatestVersion option
- Removed from SocketConfig and defaults
- Updated versionCheckIntervalMs docs to clarify it's only for makeWASocketAutoVersion
5. Fix#7: Use separate variable for version tracking
- trackedVersion instead of mutating mergedConfig
- Prevents unexpected side effects
6. Fix#8: Check socket state before emitting events
- isSocketClosed flag to prevent race conditions
- Double-check after async operations
7. Fix#10: Implement force parameter in workflow
- Creates PR even without version changes when force=true
- Useful for re-triggering updates manually
Note: Test coverage (Fix#2) deferred to separate PR due to
ESM mocking complexity with Jest.
Implements automatic version updates that are transparent to users:
- Checks for new WhatsApp Web version every 6 hours (configurable)
- When new version detected, saves it for next natural reconnection
- Emits 'version.update' event so users can track updates
- No disconnection required - WhatsApp naturally reconnects every 30min-2h
- Cleans up interval when socket closes
Configuration:
```typescript
const sock = await makeWASocketAutoVersion({
auth: state,
versionCheckIntervalMs: 6 * 60 * 60 * 1000 // 6 hours (default)
})
sock.ev.on('version.update', ({ currentVersion, newVersion, isCritical }) => {
console.log(`New version: ${newVersion.join('.')}`)
})
```
Adds a new async function that automatically fetches the latest
WhatsApp Web version from web.whatsapp.com before connecting.
Usage:
```typescript
// Option 1: Auto-fetch version (recommended)
const sock = await makeWASocketAutoVersion({ auth: state })
// Option 2: Manual version (existing behavior)
const sock = makeWASocket({ auth: state })
```
Benefits:
- No need to update library for version changes
- Automatic fallback to bundled version if fetch fails
- Logged warnings when using fallback
Messages from Facebook/Instagram ads (Click-to-WhatsApp) don't arrive on
linked devices because Meta's ads endpoint doesn't encrypt for multi-device.
They arrive as "Message absent from node" placeholders.
This change automatically requests the message from the primary phone via
PDO (Peer Data Operation) when a CTWA placeholder is detected.
Changes:
- Add enableCTWARecovery config option (default: true)
- Trigger requestPlaceholderResend() for "Message absent from node" errors
- Add Prometheus metrics for CTWA recovery tracking
- Add comprehensive unit tests for CTWA recovery functionality

Based on RSocket's battle-tested configuration:
- Add maxWebSocketListeners config option (default: 20)
- 8 base WS events + 10 dynamic listeners + 2 buffer slots
- Add maxSocketClientListeners config option (default: 50)
- Replace dangerous setMaxListeners(0) with configurable limits
- Add warning log if user explicitly sets limit to 0
BREAKING: Previous behavior used setMaxListeners(0) which removed
all limits. Now defaults to safe limits but can be overridden via config.

* Memory leak in makeMutex - Promise never gets garbage collected
Hey, I've been debugging a memory leak in my application and traced it back to the makeMutex implementation.
The current implementation chains promises indefinitely without ever breaking the chain:
Every call to mutex() creates a new Promise that awaits the previous task, then becomes the new task. The problem is the old promises never get released because each one holds a reference to the previous through the closure.
What I found
Took a heap snapshot after running for a while and found hundreds of Promises from make-mutex.js holding ~15MB and growing. The retainer graph shows a long chain of Promises all pointing back to each other.
Since processingMutex handles every incoming message/notification, this chain grows constantly and never shrinks.
This keeps the same mutex behavior but lets the GC clean up old promises every 50 tasks instead of holding them forever.
* Refactor makeMutex to use AsyncMutex directly
* lint
* revert
