fix(tasks): read a few more watch-change phrasings - #493
Conversation
The "don't tell/notify me" and "tell me ... changes" matches stop at the end of a clause, tiny/trivial and "don't bother (me) with" read as asking for important changes only, and "tell me about the changes" no longer asks for every change. Closes existence-master#489.

…ation wording "notify me about the changes" now only counts as a request for every change when the same message has no important-changes preference, so "Only important changes; notify me about the changes on this page" stays noteworthy. Explicit wording like "tell me about every change" still wins.

…-only "Don't ignore minor changes; notify me about changes on this page" matched "ignore minor changes" inside the negation, so the message counted as an important-changes preference. A preceding don't, do not or never now keeps ignore/skip from matching.

Welcome @bercedev, and thank you! This is a really careful first PR. I ran every phrasing from #489 and all of #406's earlier cases through planner_default, plus a real qwen3:8b watch task:
- all six #489 phrasings now come out right;
- nothing from #406 regressed;
- qwen's watch kept
changed, thennoteworthy, thennoteworthy, as expected. 🎉
One small thing: the "about/of the changes" exclusion (scripts.py ~532) also catches requests about the future. "Tell me about the changes as they happen", "…from now on", "…going forward" and "Tell me about the new changes every time" used to mean every change and now give no preference. Could the exclusion apply only to questions or one-off times ("today", "so far", "yesterday", a trailing "?")? Or could "tell me about the changes" go through your _CHANGE_NOTIFICATION_REQUEST path, like "notify me about the changes"? A test for "Tell me about the changes as they happen" → changed would pin it down.
Optional: "Don't ignore minor changes" could count as every change. Thanks again, this is lovely work!
…ss it asks about the past "Tell me about the changes as they happen" (from now on, going forward, every time) asks for every change, like "notify me about the changes", so it now goes through the same delivery path. A one-off time (today, so far, since Monday, ...) or a trailing question mark still keeps it a question about past changes. "Don't ignore minor changes" now counts as a request for every change.

Thanks a lot for testing it this thoroughly, @itsskofficial! Both points are in 33d26c0.
New cases: "Tell me about the changes as they happen / from now on / going forward", "Tell me about the new changes every time" and "Don't ignore minor changes" → |

Review comments at @sentient/tasks/scripts.py:
- Line 553: Update the past-change exclusion in _change_preference to recognize
past-oriented wording such as “changes that were made,” even when no one-off
time word is present. Add coverage that sends this phrasing through
planner_default and verifies it does not retain every-change notifications.
- Line 553: Update the question-check lookahead in the _change_preference
matching logic so it only examines the matched request clause, not a later
sentence. Preserve the existing behavior for questions within that clause, and
add a planner regression case for an explicit future request followed by a
separate question to ensure minor updates are not omitted.

…d scope its question mark to the clause "Tell me about the changes that were made" has no time word but asks about past changes, so past-tense wording (that were/have been/happened, were made) now counts like a one-off time. The question-mark check looked at the end of the whole message, so "Tell me about the changes as they happen. Can you do that?" lost its request; it now looks only at the request's own clause.

Thanks @bercedev, re-tested at 16973b8 and it works:
- "Tell me about the changes" with as they happen, from now on, going forward or every time now means every change;
- past-tense questions stay one-off;
- "Don't ignore minor changes" asks for everything.
All the earlier #406 and #489 cases still pass (208 checks), and qwen3:8b on a real engine moved the watch exactly as expected. Approving and merging!
Closes #489
The phrasings from #406's final test, handled in
sentient/tasks/scripts.py:changed. Two matches ran past the comma. Thedon't tell/notify me … every changealternative of_NOTEWORTHY_REQUESTpickednoteworthy. With that bounded, thenotify me … changealternative of_EVERY_CHANGE_REQUESTstarted at "notify me" and swallowed the whole sentence as one negated match, so the "tell me about every change" after the comma was never seen. Both now stop at the end of a clause through a shared_WITHIN_CLAUSE: a comma or semicolon, or./!/?followed by a space. A URL's dots don't end it, so "Tell me when https://example.org/events changes" still matches.noteworthy.tinyandtrivialjoinminor/small/little, "don't bother (me) with" joinsignore/skip/don't, and the determiners may includeevery.tell me … changesalternative skips "about/of the (…) changes", the way it already skipped "what/which changes", because that asks about particular changes and not for every future one.Tests in
tests/tasks/test_scripts_triggers_retry.py: the six phrasings are added to the_change_preferencetable, and a newtest_planner_default_reads_the_new_phrasingschecks three of them throughplanner_defaulton achangedwhole-page script. 8 of the new cases fail onmainand the file passes (92 tests).tests/taskspasses, the #406 cases included, andruff check sentient testsis clean (Python 3.12, Linux). I didn't do a real run against a model: these are pure parsing changes.Changelog:
