P1 Badge Apply RTL mark when sending Telegram drafts

This commit introduces RTL_MARK but never uses it, so sendDraftTransportPreview still calls sendMessageDraft with renderedText unchanged and RTL users (e.g., Arabic/Hebrew text in draft preview mode) continue to get incorrect directionality. Because the only added line is an unused constant, the stated fix for RTL draft streaming is not actually implemented.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Greptile Summary

This PR successfully implements RTL mark support in Telegram draft streaming, correctly detecting RTL text using Unicode ranges and prepending \u200F (U+200F RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK) before sending.

The core fix is functional and resolves issue #32852. However, two implementation concerns remain:

  1. Redundant string operations (line 232): rendered.text.trimEnd() is called three times on the same line, causing unnecessary string allocations. The value should be stored once and reused.

  2. Incomplete RTL Unicode coverage (line 119): The regex [\u0590-\u08FF] omits Arabic Presentation Forms (\uFB50-\uFDFF and \uFE70-\uFEFF), which are used in legacy and display contexts. Text containing only these characters would not be detected as RTL.

Confidence Score: 3/5

  • The fix is functional and correctly implements RTL mark support, but contains quality issues that should be addressed.
  • The core RTL mark prepending logic works correctly. However, two verified issues reduce confidence: (1) redundant string allocations from triple trimEnd() calls on line 232, and (2) incomplete RTL Unicode coverage from the regex missing Arabic Presentation Forms on line 119. While not blockers, these represent real code quality concerns that warrant addressing before merge.
  • src/telegram/draft-stream.ts — lines 119 and 232 require fixes

RTL_MARK is declared but never used

The constant RTL_MARK is defined here but is never referenced anywhere in the file. The PR description says it "prepends Unicode RLM mark to RTL text in sendMessageDraft", but no such prepending logic exists — there is no RTL detection, and RTL_MARK is never passed to sendDraftTransportPreview, sendMessageTransportPreview, or any text construction path.

As a result, this fix is a no-op and issue #32852 remains unresolved.

The actual implementation should detect RTL text (e.g. using a regex against RTL Unicode ranges) and prepend RTL_MARK to the rendered text before it is sent. For example, inside sendOrEditStreamMessage after the text is rendered:

const isRtl = /[\u0591-\u07FF\uFB1D-\uFDFD\uFE70-\uFEFC]/.test(renderedText);
const finalText = isRtl ? RTL_MARK + renderedText : renderedText;

and then use finalText in place of renderedText for the send calls.

The constant `RTL_MARK` is defined here but is never referenced anywhere in the file.

const finalText = isRtl ? RTL_MARK + renderedText : renderedText;
```

and then use `finalText` in place of `renderedText` for the send calls.

Inconsistent indentation on await call

The const textWithRTLM declaration uses 8-space indentation (matching the if body), but the await params.api.editMessageText(...) call that follows is indented only 6 spaces, breaking the block's consistent indent level and likely flagging a linter/formatter error.

RTL mark never applied on draft transport path

The PR title is "fix: add RTL mark support for Telegram draft streaming", yet sendDraftTransportPreview — the primary draft path — passes renderedText directly to resolvedDraftApi without any RTL transformation. Only the editMessageText call inside sendMessageTransportPreview (and only when renderedParseMode is set) receives the fix. As a result, RTL text sent via the draft transport (sendMessageDraft) will still render without the RLM prefix.

The RTL transformation should be applied before calling either transport:

const sendDraftTransportPreview = async ({
  renderedText,
  renderedParseMode,
}: PreviewSendParams): Promise<boolean> => {
  const draftId = streamDraftId ?? allocateTelegramDraftId();
  streamDraftId = draftId;
  // Apply RTL mark before sending
  const finalText = isRTL(renderedText) ? "\u200F" + renderedText : renderedText;
  const draftParams = {
    ...(threadParams?.message_thread_id != null
      ? { message_thread_id: threadParams.message_thread_id }
      : {}),
    ...(renderedParseMode ? { parse_mode: renderedParseMode } : {}),

RTL fix is applied inconsistently in sendMessageTransportPreview

The RTL mark is only prepended when both conditions hold: (a) the message is an edit (streamMessageId is a number) and (b) renderedParseMode is set. It is silently skipped in three other code paths within the same function:

  • Line 151 — edit without parse mode: params.api.editMessageText(chatId, streamMessageId, renderedText) — no RTL applied
  • Line 163 — initial sendMessage: params.api.sendMessage(chatId, renderedText, sendParams) — no RTL applied
  • Line 178 — retry sendMessage without thread: same, no RTL applied

RTL text will render incorrectly in all of those cases. Apply the RTL transformation once, unconditionally, before the transport branches:

const sendOrEditStreamMessage = async (text: string): Promise<boolean> => {
  // ...existing checks...
  const renderedText = rendered.text.trimEnd();
  const renderedParseMode = rendered.parseMode;
  // Apply RTL transformation to all send paths
  const finalText = isRTL(renderedText) ? "\u200F" + renderedText : renderedText;
  // ...then pass finalText to both sendDraftTransportPreview and sendMessageTransportPreview

src/telegram/draft-stream.ts
The RTL mark is applied inconsistently across different send paths. Inside sendMessageTransportPreview, the textWithRTLM transformation (with the RLM mark) is only applied in the if (renderedParseMode) branch (line 147), leaving three other code paths sending unmodified text:

  1. Line 151editMessageText without parse mode uses renderedText directly
  2. Lines 163 & 178 — Both sendMessage calls use renderedText directly
  3. Line 217 in sendDraftTransportPreview — Draft API receives renderedText directly

The RTL mark transformation should be applied once in sendOrEditStreamMessage (after renderedText is finalized at line 233) so that all downstream send paths use the corrected text uniformly. This ensures RTL messages render correctly regardless of which code path is taken.

RTL regex may miss Arabic Presentation Forms

The range [\u0590-\u08FF] covers Hebrew and the primary Arabic Unicode blocks, but misses Arabic characters that appear via Presentation Forms:

  • \uFB50-\uFDFF — Arabic Presentation Forms-A
  • \uFE70-\uFEFF — Arabic Presentation Forms-B

These blocks are used in some legacy and display contexts. Text containing only Presentation Form Arabic characters would not be detected as RTL, leaving the fix incomplete for those edge cases.

Consider expanding the range to include them:

Suggested change
const isRTL = (text: string) => /[\u0590-\u08FF]/.test(text); // Hebrew, Arabic ranges
const isRTL = (text: string) => /[\u0590-\u08FF\uFB1D-\uFDFD\uFE70-\uFEFC]/.test(text); // Hebrew, Arabic and Arabic Presentation Forms

Additionally, since isRTL does not close over any variables from createTelegramDraftStream, it could be extracted as a module-level constant to avoid recreating the function on every factory call.

The RTL detection regex [\u0590-\u08FF] covers Hebrew and the primary Arabic Unicode blocks, but misses Arabic Presentation Forms used in some legacy and display contexts:

  • \uFB50-\uFDFF — Arabic Presentation Forms-A
  • \uFE70-\uFEFF — Arabic Presentation Forms-B

Text containing only these presentation-form characters would not be detected as RTL. Consider expanding the regex to include these ranges:

Suggested change
const isRTL = (text: string) => /[\u0590-\u08FF]/.test(text); // Hebrew, Arabic ranges
const isRTL = (text: string) => /[\u0590-\u08FF\uFB50-\uFDFF\uFE70-\uFEFF]/.test(text); // Hebrew, Arabic ranges, Arabic Presentation Forms
