Codex review: needs maintainer review before merge. Reviewed June 5, 2026, 4:56 PM ET / 20:56 UTC. Summary Reproducibility: not applicable. this is a feature PR, not a bug report. After-fix behavior is supported by contributor-reported local gates and aggregate copied-real-data export/import proof on the current head. Review metrics: 3 noteworthy metrics.
Merge readiness Overall follows the weaker of proof and patch quality, so missing proof can cap an otherwise strong patch. Rank-up moves:

Security Review detailsBest possible solution: Land this only as part of the coordinated v0 slice after maintainers approve the local contact-export privacy boundary and confirm the linked consumer and producer PRs use the same command, envelope, and fields. Do we have a high-confidence way to reproduce the issue? Not applicable: this is a feature PR, not a bug report. After-fix behavior is supported by contributor-reported local gates and aggregate copied-real-data export/import proof on the current head. Is this the best way to solve the issue? Yes, if maintainers accept the v0 boundary: source-native, local read-only export with a narrow JSON payload is the least broad implementation path. Broader graph, candidate, source-id, username, or ranking fields should stay out of this PR. AGENTS.md: not found in the target repository.

What: - narrow contact-export to Telegram contacts with chat or message evidence - suppress exact duplicate display-name and phone rows - cover stale peer exclusion and exact duplicate suppression in tests Why: - keep clawdex from importing stale Telegram peer records as canonical people - preserve the simple contact-export contract without adding graph or candidate fields Tests: - git diff --check (pass) - nix shell nixpkgs#go --command go test ./... (pass) - nix shell nixpkgs#go --command go vet ./... (pass) - nix shell nixpkgs#go --command go build ./cmd/telecrawl (pass)
What: - probe the temporary fake Python helper before importer tests use it - retry briefly when the OS reports the helper script is still text file busy Why: - GitHub CI hit `fork/exec .../python: text file busy` in the importer test fixture - the failure is in the test helper, not the contact-export implementation Tests: - nix shell nixpkgs#go --command sh -c 'GOTOOLCHAIN=local go test -count=1 ./... -coverprofile=coverage.out' (passed) - nix shell nixpkgs#go --command go test ./...

What: - group contact-export rows by trimmed phone number - prefer the newest source contact name when updated_at is meaningful - fall back to the longer cleaned display name when timestamps tie or are absent - cover newer-name and equal-time richer-name duplicate cases in the export test Why: - Telegram Postbox archives can contain multiple source peer rows for the same phone - clawdex should receive one contact per phone for v0 instead of duplicate source-row names - usernames remain out of the v0 contract and out of display_name fallback behavior Tests: - nix shell nixpkgs#go -c go test ./internal/cli -run TestContactsExportUsesContractShapeAndSkipsUnsafeNames -count=1: pass - nix shell nixpkgs#go -c go test ./...: pass - nix shell nixpkgs#go -c go vet ./...: pass - nix shell nixpkgs#go -c go build ./cmd/telecrawl: pass - git diff --check: pass - copied-real-DB smoke with clawdex pull import: first import created 51 people, repeat import returned []

Landed in 9df81dc as part of the coordinated contact-export v0 slice. Tested before merge:
Exact-head GitHub checks on b79e37f were green before merge: lint, docker, test, deps, release-check, secrets, and Socket. No raw contact names or phone numbers were posted; live proof used aggregate counts only. |
Summary
telecrawl [--json] contacts exporttelecrawl --json contacts exportas read-onlycontact-exportin crawlkit metadatadisplay_nameandphone_numbersdisplay_name, skip the observed Telegram service contact row shape (Telegram/42777), and exclude stale Telegram peer/contact-table rows that have no chat or message evidenceupdated_atis meaningful, otherwise prefer the longer cleaned human display namefork/exec .../python: text file busy; this is test-fixture-only and does not change contact-export behaviorRelated PRs
These three PRs are one contact-export v0 slice. Source crawlers own source-native contact extraction; clawdex owns canonical people and imports by pulling the crawler metadata
contact-exportcommand. They should land in lockstep; if the command name, metadata argv, envelope, or field names change in one repo, all three should change together.Intent
The discoverable local
contact-exportmetadata command is intentional. Local opt-in export of contact display names and phone numbers is intentional. This is the feature boundary, not an accidental privacy expansion.The command is local and read-only. It reads the existing local telecrawl archive; it does not fetch remote data and does not include messages, raw paths, source ids, usernames, JIDs/LIDs, interaction counts, ranking signals, or graph/candidate fields.
Boundary
This is the Telegram producer side of the same contact-import slice as
openclaw/clawdex#2andsteipete/wacrawl#12. The crawler owns Telegram-native contact extraction; clawdex owns canonical people and imports by pulling the metadata-advertisedcontact-exportcommand.This is intentionally a local CLI/control metadata surface, not a generic crawler-to-crawler protocol, graph layer, or candidate model.
contacts exportis narrower than the humancontactsinspection surface. It exports phone contacts backed by chat/message evidence, not every stored Telegram peer row. This keeps the v0 import useful for clawdex without pretending old peer-table residue is a current useful person.The producer filter is intentionally narrow. It does not claim short phone numbers are invalid. It only skips the observed Telegram service row shape where the stored contact is
full_name=Telegram,first_name=Telegram,phone=42777, blank username, blank last name. Tests include a separate short-number person fixture to prove short phone values are not globally rejected.When Telegram has multiple source peer rows for the same phone, the export now emits one contact for that phone. This keeps source-row duplication out of the v0 clawdex import while leaving the source-native rows inspectable in telecrawl.

The export does not include usernames, JIDs, LIDs, message bodies, raw paths, source row ids, or interaction counts. Public proof reports counts and behavior only; raw command output stays local because it contains private contact names and phone numbers.
