Channel Truth Run

Channel Truth Run

Runs the Channel Truth Agent to synchronize last_contact timestamps

When to use

• "run channel truth"
• "update last contact dates"
• "synchronize contact dates"
• "run channel truth agent"

What it does

Channel Truth Agent:

1. Loads all activities from activities.csv
2. Finds the most recent communication for each contact
3. (Optionally) Scans channels (Email, Telegram, WhatsApp, LinkedIn)
4. Merges data and resolves conflicts
5. Updates people.csv, leads.csv, clients.csv with current dates
6. Generates a report (stale/hot contacts)
7. Sends summary to Telegram

How to execute

Run modes

# Full run (default)
cd $AGENTS_PATH/channel-truth
python3 channel_truth_agent.py

# Dry-run (read only, no writes)
python3 channel_truth_agent.py --dry-run

# Single contact (for debugging)
python3 channel_truth_agent.py --person-id=p-acme-001

# Without channel scanning (activities.csv only)
python3 channel_truth_agent.py --no-channels

Pre-run checks

# Check if activities.csv exists
ls -lh $CRM_PATH/activities.csv

# Check people.csv
ls -lh $CRM_PATH/contacts/people.csv

# Dry-run test
python3 channel_truth_agent.py --dry-run

After run

# View report
ls -lt $AGENTS_PATH/reports/channel_truth_*.md | head -1

# View latest report
cat $(ls -t $AGENTS_PATH/reports/channel_truth_*.md | head -1)

# View logs
tail -20 $AGENTS_PATH/logs/channel_truth.json

Output

1. Updated CSV files:

   • people.csv - added last_contact and last_updated
   • leads.csv - added last_contact_via_primary
   • clients.csv - added last_contact_via_primary

2. Report:

   • $AGENTS_PATH/reports/channel_truth_YYYY-MM-DD.md

3. Backup files:

   • people.csv.bak.TIMESTAMP
   • leads.csv.bak.TIMESTAMP
   • clients.csv.bak.TIMESTAMP

4. Telegram notification:

   • Summary: how many updated, hot/stale contacts

Rollback

If something went wrong:

# Rollback via backup
cd $CRM_PATH/contacts/
ls -lt people.csv.bak.* | head -1
cp people.csv.bak.YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS people.csv

cd ../relationships/
cp leads.csv.bak.YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS leads.csv
cp clients.csv.bak.YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS clients.csv

# Or via git
cd $PROJECT_ROOT
git log --oneline sales/crm/
git revert <commit-hash>

Schedule

Agent runs automatically via launchd:

• Time: 02:00 daily (after email agent)
• Plist: ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.yourcompany.channel-truth-agent.plist

# Check status
launchctl list | grep channel-truth

# Reload
launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.yourcompany.channel-truth-agent.plist
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.yourcompany.channel-truth-agent.plist

Troubleshooting

"activities.csv not found"

# Check path
ls -l $CRM_PATH/activities.csv

# If missing - create a basic one
echo "activity_id,person_id,company_id,product_id,type,channel,direction,subject,notes,date,created_by" > activities.csv

"Telegram notification failed"

# Check Telegram credentials
ls -l $SALES_PATH/telegram/sessions/

# Test tg-tools
cd $TG_TOOLS_PATH
python3 -c "from tg_utils.auth import get_client; import asyncio; asyncio.run(get_client())"

"Channel API failure"

# Skip channel scanning
python3 channel_truth_agent.py --no-channels

Usage example

# User: "run channel truth in dry-run"
cd $AGENTS_PATH/channel-truth
python3 channel_truth_agent.py --dry-run

# View what will be changed
cat /tmp/channel-truth-output.txt

# If everything is ok - run for real
python3 channel_truth_agent.py

# View report
cat $(ls -t $AGENTS_PATH/reports/channel_truth_*.md | head -1)

Notes

• Agent is idempotent (can be run multiple times)
• Always backs up before modifying CSV
• If a channel is unavailable - skips with warning
• activities.csv - primary source of truth
• Channel archives - supplementary (for verification)
