Junior responds to messages directed at other bots #424

@sentry-junior

Description

@sentry-junior

Junior responds to Slack messages that are explicitly @-mentioned to a different bot (e.g. junior-staging), rather than staying silent when it is not the target.

  • Observed: a message saying staging cancel that task (directed at junior-staging) triggered a response from Junior prod
  • Expected: Junior should not respond when the message is addressed to a different @-mention target
  • Impact: confusing multi-bot threads; prod bot answers requests meant for staging (or vice versa), polluting context and potentially taking unintended action

Root cause likely lives in the message routing / trigger logic — Junior should check whether the inbound @-mention resolves to its own user ID before processing the message as a command.

Action taken on behalf of David Cramer.
