Accept local numbers and short codes in send_sms by vernu · Pull Request #4 · textbee/textbee-mcp

vernu · 2026-11-05T11:47:29Z

Summary

send_sms accepted only strict E.164, so short codes (for example 605) and local numbers were refused before any API call. The phone can send to both.
New rule: 3 to 15 digits with an optional leading +. Spaces, dots, hyphens and parentheses are stripped before sending. Sender names such as MYBANK are still refused.
Tool descriptions still steer agents to international format, and say local numbers and short codes only reach recipients in the sending phone's country.
README updated.

Tests

pnpm test (52 passed), tsc --noEmit

Summary by CodeRabbit

New Features
- SMS recipients can now be international numbers, local numbers, or short codes. Common formatting and surrounding whitespace are normalized before sending.
Bug Fixes
- Invalid sender names and numbers outside the accepted length are rejected before a network request is made.
Documentation
- Clarified recipient formats and noted that local numbers and short codes are limited to recipients in the sending phone’s country.

Recipients were limited to strict E.164, which blocked short codes and local numbers that the phone can send to. The tool now accepts 3 to 15 digits with an optional leading plus, strips formatting, and still prefers international format in its description.

Walkthrough

The send-SMS tool now accepts international numbers, local numbers, and short codes. It removes common formatting characters, checks the digit count, and sends the normalized recipient. Documentation and tests describe and verify these formats.

Changes: SMS recipient formats

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Recipient format and tool contract `src/tools.ts`, `README.md`	Recipient validation removes whitespace, dots, hyphens, and parentheses, then accepts 3–15 digits with an optional leading `+`. Tool descriptions and the README state that local numbers and short codes reach recipients in the sending phone’s country.
Send validation and request handling `src/tools.ts`, `test/tools.test.ts`	The send path validates recipients and sends normalized values. Tests cover rejection of sender names and invalid lengths, plus acceptance and normalization of local numbers, short codes, and formatted international numbers.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: Low · previous review 56eb4

The new recipient formats work for common cases, but a few edge inputs can be mis-normalized or deduplicated incorrectly. These are bounded and worth fixing or accepting before or shortly after merge.

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 1 functions across 2 files. (1 skipped: 1 unsupported.)

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Review comments at @src/tools.ts:
- Line 22: Update the normalization around the trim-and-replace operation using
RECIPIENT_FORMATTING so optional trunk prefixes such as `(0)` in international
numbers are not converted into part of the destination number. Reject this
ambiguous notation or apply established country-aware normalization before
removing parentheses; preserve existing handling for other recipient formatting.
- Line 232: Update sendDedupeKey construction for recipients normalized by
normalizeRecipient so local numbers and short codes are distinguished by the
effective sending device and SIM, or bypass deduplication for ambiguous local
recipients. Preserve existing deduplication behavior for destinations whose
identity is unambiguous.
- Line 17: Update RECIPIENT_FORMATTING to remove only spaces, periods, hyphens,
and parentheses; preserve line breaks and other unsupported whitespace so
recipient validation rejects them instead of silently changing the destination.

Make deduplication sender-aware for local recipients.

sendDedupeKey does not include the effective device or SIM. Therefore, the same local number or short code can collide across devices, even though the local destination can depend on the sending phone’s country. The second send can return the first send’s result without calling sendSms. Include the effective device and SIM in the key, or bypass deduplication for ambiguous local recipients. The PR expands this existing collision from E.164 recipients to local numbers and short codes.
