fix(channels): replace status reaction default emoji with self-explanatory set

Gado · Gado · commit a6aa0262f1b2 · 2026-05-14T10:50:09.000+02:00
Fold in the emoji-default replacement from #59077: 🧠 thinking, 🛠️ tool, 💻 coding, 🌐 web, ⏳ stallSoft, ⚠️ stallHard, ✅ done, ❌ error. The old defaults (🥱 yawn / 😨 fear / 🤔 / 🔥 / ...) read as emotional commentary rather than status. Slack shortcodes already cover the new set; Telegram degrades via the existing fallback variant lists. Fixes #59077

 ### Changes
 
+- Channels/status reactions: wire `StatusReactionController` into WhatsApp message turns (queued → thinking → tool → done/error lifecycle, on par with Telegram and Discord), add `deploy`/`build`/`concierge` emoji categories with tool-token routing, and replace the status reaction defaults with self-explanatory emoji (🧠 thinking, 🛠️ tool, 💻 coding, 🌐 web, ⏳ stallSoft, ⚠️ stallHard, ✅ done, ❌ error) so stall and lifecycle reactions read as status indicators instead of emotional commentary. Fixes #59077. Thanks @OolonColoophid.

 - Providers/fal: route GPT Image 2 and Nano Banana 2 reference-image edit requests to `/edit` with `image_urls` array, enforce NB2 edit geometry using `aspect_ratio` and `resolution` params, lift Fal edit mode input-image caps to 10 for GPT Image 2 and 14 for Nano Banana 2, and allow aspect-ratio hints in edit mode. (#77295) Thanks @leoge007.
 
 - Build: enable additional low-churn oxlint rules for promise, TypeScript, and runtime footgun checks.
