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
Instead of maintaining the version number in 3 separate files
(baileys-version.json, index.ts, generics.ts), this change makes
baileys-version.json the single source of truth. Other files now
import the version from this JSON file.
This follows the DRY principle and reduces:
- Risk of version inconsistency across files
- Maintenance burden (only 1 file to update)
- PR diff size (3 files → 1 file for version updates)
- Merge conflict probability
Addresses inefficiency found in Baileys PR #2269.
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

- Re-export RETRY_BACKOFF_DELAYS and RETRY_JITTER_FACTOR from Defaults
for backwards compatibility with existing imports
- Add 'as const' to RETRY_JITTER_FACTOR for type consistency
- Improve documentation explaining why values are hardcoded in retryConfigs
(ESM initialization order issues with indirect circular imports)
- Remove duplicate RETRY_BACKOFF_DELAYS and RETRY_JITTER_FACTOR from Defaults/index.ts
- Export constants from retry-utils.ts as single source of truth
- Add 'as const' for better type inference
- Fixes "Cannot access 'RETRY_BACKOFF_DELAYS' before initialization" error
- Integrate RETRY_BACKOFF_DELAYS and RETRY_JITTER_FACTOR into retry-utils.ts
- Add retryConfigs.rsocket using the default delays
- Add getRetryDelayWithJitter() helper function
- Add getAllRetryDelaysWithJitter() for planning
- Document DEFAULT_CACHE_MAX_KEYS with usage example
- Adjust INITIAL_PREKEY_COUNT from 30 to 200 (moderate value)
- Adjust MIN_UPLOAD_INTERVAL from 60s to 10s (balance rate limiting/responsiveness)
- Revert syncFullHistory to true (avoid breaking change)
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.
- Add DEFAULT_CACHE_MAX_KEYS with limits per store type (prevents memory leaks)
- Add RETRY_BACKOFF_DELAYS [1s, 2s, 5s, 10s, 20s] for exponential backoff
- Add RETRY_JITTER_FACTOR (0.15) to prevent thundering herd
- Change INITIAL_PREKEY_COUNT from 812 to 30 (safer for rate limiting)
- Change MIN_UPLOAD_INTERVAL from 5s to 60s (avoids rate limiting)
- Change syncFullHistory default to false (conservative approach)

* Add message retry manager for session recreation and caching
Introduces a MessageRetryManager to cache recent sent messages and manage automatic Signal session recreation for failed message retries. Adds new config options to enable these features, integrates retry manager into message send/receive logic, and provides periodic cache cleanup. Improves reliability of message delivery and retry handling.
* Add buffer timeout and cache limit to event-buffer
Introduces a buffer timeout to auto-flush events after 30 seconds and limits the history cache size to prevent memory bloat in event-buffer.ts.
* Add session validation to SignalRepository
Introduces a validateSession method to SignalRepository for checking session existence and state. Updates message retry logic to use the new validation, improving session recreation handling and retry management.
* Improve message retry management and tracking
Refactored message retry manager to use LRU caches for recent messages and session history, added retry counters and statistics tracking, and implemented phone request scheduling. Updated message receive and send logic to mark retry success and pass max retry count. Removed periodic cleanup logic in favor of cache TTLs for better resource management.
* lint fix
* Use validateSession for session checks in message send
Replaces direct session existence checks with the improved validateSession method, which also checks for session staleness. Adds debug logging for failed session validations to aid troubleshooting.
