SKILL: Gateway Manager (org-skill-gateway-manager.org)

Architectural Intent

The Gateway Manager is the unified interface for all external messaging platforms. It handles Telegram, Signal, and any future gateway through a common pattern: a registry of poll/send function pairs, a configuration hash table for tokens and intervals, and a background thread per gateway that polls for new messages.

Each gateway follows the same lifecycle:

  1. Register — the gateway's poll and send functions are registered in *gateway-registry*
  2. Link — the user provides a token; it's stored in the vault and a polling thread is started
  3. Poll — the thread calls the poll function on an interval, injecting received messages into the pipeline
  4. Unlink — the thread is destroyed, the config is removed
  5. Act — when the agent needs to send a message, it dispatches to the gateway's send function via the generic actuator mechanism

Implementation

Platform state — configs

Storage for active gateway connections: tokens, polling threads, and intervals.

(defvar *gateway-configs* (make-hash-table :test 'equal)
  "Maps platform name → plist (:token :thread :interval :enabled)")

Platform state — registry

Registration of available gateway implementations: each platform registers its poll and send functions here.

(defvar *gateway-registry* (make-hash-table :test 'equal)
  "Maps platform name → plist (:poll-fn :send-fn :default-interval)")

Telegram Implementation

(defun telegram-get-token ()
  (vault-get-secret :telegram))

(defun telegram-poll ()
  "Polls Telegram for new messages and injects them into the harness."
  (let* ((token (telegram-get-token)))

                          token (1+ last-id))))
        (handler-case

Signal Implementation

(defun signal-poll ()

Gateway Registry Initialization

(defun gateway-registry-initialize ()
  "Registers all built-in gateway handlers."
  (setf (gethash "telegram" *gateway-registry*)
        (list :poll-fn #'telegram-poll
              :send-fn #'telegram-send
              :default-interval 3))
  (setf (gethash "signal" *gateway-registry*)
        (list :poll-fn #'signal-poll
              :send-fn #'signal-send
              :default-interval 5)))

Core gateway functions

Configuration check (gateway-configured-p)

Returns T if a platform has a stored token in *gateway-configs*.

(defun gateway-configured-p (platform)
  "Returns T if a platform has a stored token."
  (let ((config (gethash platform *gateway-configs*)))
    (and config (getf config :token))))

Active check (gateway-active-p)

Returns T if a platform's polling thread is alive.

(defun gateway-active-p (platform)
  "Returns T if a platform's polling thread is alive."
  (let ((config (gethash platform *gateway-configs*)))
    (and config
         (getf config :thread)
         (bt:thread-alive-p (getf config :thread)))))

Link a gateway (gateway-link)

The main entry point for linking. Validates the registry entry, stores the token in the vault, starts the polling thread, and updates the config.

(defun gateway-link (platform token)
  "Links a platform with a token and starts polling."
  (let ((platform-lc (string-downcase platform)))
    (unless (gethash platform-lc *gateway-registry*)
      (error "Unknown platform: ~a. Available: ~{~a~^, ~}"
             platform (loop for k being the hash-keys of *gateway-registry* collect k)))
    (when (or (null token) (zerop (length token)))
      (error "Token cannot be empty"))
    (log-message "GATEWAY: Linking to ~a..." platform-lc)
    (gateway-unlink platform-lc)
    (let* ((registry-entry (gethash platform-lc *gateway-registry*))
           (interval (or (getf registry-entry :default-interval) 5)))
      (setf (gethash platform-lc *gateway-configs*)
            (list :token token :interval interval :enabled t))
      (vault-set-secret (intern (string-upcase platform-lc) :keyword) token)
      (gateway-start platform-lc)
      (log-message "GATEWAY: Successfully linked ~a" platform-lc)
      (format t "Successfully linked ~a gateway. Token stored securely.~%" platform-lc)
      t)))

Unlink a gateway (gateway-unlink)

Stops the polling thread and removes the config entry.

(defun gateway-unlink (platform)
  "Unlinks a platform and stops its polling thread."
  (let ((platform-lc (string-downcase platform)))
    (gateway-stop platform-lc)
    (remhash platform-lc *gateway-configs*)
    (log-message "GATEWAY: Unlinked ~a" platform-lc)
    (format t "Successfully unlinked ~a gateway.~%" platform-lc)
    t))

Start polling (gateway-start)

Creates a background thread that calls the platform's poll function on an interval. The thread checks the :enabled flag on each cycle so it can be stopped cleanly via gateway-stop.

(defun gateway-start (platform)
  "Starts the polling thread for a linked gateway."
  (let ((platform-lc (string-downcase platform)))
    (let ((config (gethash platform-lc *gateway-configs*)))
      (when (and config (getf config :enabled) (not (gateway-active-p platform-lc)))
        (let ((poll-fn (getf (gethash platform-lc *gateway-registry*) :poll-fn)))
          (when poll-fn
            (let ((interval (getf config :interval)))
              (setf (getf config :thread)
                    (bt:make-thread
                     (lambda ()
                       (loop
                         (when (getf (gethash platform-lc *gateway-configs*) :enabled)
                           (funcall poll-fn))
                         (sleep interval)))
                     :name (format nil "passepartout-~a-gateway" platform-lc)))
              (log-message "GATEWAY: Started ~a polling (interval: ~as)" platform-lc interval)))))))))

Stop polling (gateway-stop)

Destroys the polling thread and nulls the thread reference.

(defun gateway-stop (platform)
  "Stops the polling thread for a gateway."
  (let ((platform-lc (string-downcase platform)))
    (let ((config (gethash platform-lc *gateway-configs*)))
      (when (and config (getf config :thread))
        (when (bt:thread-alive-p (getf config :thread))
          (log-message "GATEWAY: Stopping ~a polling thread" platform-lc)
          (bt:destroy-thread (getf config :thread))))
      (setf (getf config :thread) nil))))

List gateways (gateway-list)

Returns a list of plists, one per registered platform, with :platform, :configured, and :active keys.

(defun gateway-list ()
  "Returns a list of all gateways with their status."
  (loop for platform being the hash-keys of *gateway-registry*
        collect (let ((configured (gateway-configured-p platform))
                      (active (gateway-active-p platform)))
                  (list :platform platform
                        :configured configured
                        :active active))))

Print gateways (gateway-list-print)

Formats gateway-list for display in the CLI.

(defun gateway-list-print ()
  "Prints a formatted table of gateways."
  (format t "~%")
  (format t "  ~20@A ~12@A ~10@A~%" "PLATFORM" "CONFIGURED" "STATUS")
  (dolist (gw (gateway-list))
    (format t "  ~20@A ~12@A ~10@A~%"
            (getf gw :platform)
            (if (getf gw :configured) "yes" "no")
            (cond
              ((getf gw :active) "ACTIVE")
              ((getf gw :configured) "stopped")
              (t "not linked"))))
  (format t "~%"))

Start all configured gateways (gateway-start-all)

Called during boot to start all gateways that have tokens stored in their configs.

(defun gateway-start-all ()
  "Called at boot to start all configured gateways."
  (dolist (config (loop for platform being the hash-keys of *gateway-configs*
                       collect (list platform (gethash platform *gateway-configs*))))
    (destructuring-bind (platform config) config
      (when (and (getf config :enabled) (not (gateway-active-p platform)))
        (gateway-start platform)))))
