 # @mercury-fw/channel-google-chat
 
+## 0.9.0
+
+### Minor Changes
+
+- e00ff73: The channels' texts come out in the person's language too, and the language their client asks for counts. Channel contract version 6:
+
+  - The person's language is the one they saved, else the one their client asks for, else the app's default. The HTTP channel passes on the request's `Accept-Language` header (what browsers send), Google Chat the language of the person's Chat client when its event carries one (`InboundTurn.languageHint`). Someone the agent refuses gets it too.
+  - A channel declares its own texts in English in `messages`, under its name (`google-chat.`, `http.`), checked like a plugin's; it gets them through `ctx.i18n.forRequest(principal, hint)`.
+  - The replies to a confirmation are the core's, in the person's language: `ctx.confirm` returns `{ text, resume? }` and `ctx.resolveConfirmation` the outcome with its `text`. A confirmed action reads "Confirmed and done." instead of its raw result as JSON. `confirmReply`, `RESUME_AFTER_CONFIRM` and `PENDING_CONFIRMATION_NOTE` are gone from the contract, and `tryConfirm` from `@mercury-fw/confirm-engine` (`resolveConfirmation` reports the outcome; the core words it).
+  - The stand-in for an answer the model didn't write because the turn staged an action (`core.pending.note`, "Action pending, waiting for confirmation.") is no longer streamed as text: `finalize(text, { pendingNote })` says the text begins with it, and channels drop it through that, never by comparing text.
+  - A plain staging's single choice has an empty label: each channel words its own button ("Confirm" on Google Chat, in the person's language). `loginLinkText(login, t)` takes the person's texts.
+  - HTTP: `Accept-Language` on `/turn`, `/confirm` and `/login/callback`; `Content-Language` on the responses of `/turn` and `/confirm`; the `final` event carries `pendingNote`; the login page reads in the browser's language.
+  - Google Chat: the cards' titles, status lines and confirm button are `google-chat.*` texts; the client's `common.userLocale` is the hint when the event carries it.
+  - The terminal's replies to a confirmation read in the terminal person's language, like its other lines.
+
+  The texts that were in Italian (the cards, the replies to a confirmation, the pending note) are now English by default. An app that wants them in Italian adds their keys to `locales/it.json` (`core.pending.note`, `core.confirm.*`, `core.login.link*`, `google-chat.*`, `http.*`; the log lists the missing ones at startup). A UI on the HTTP channel can hide the pending note through `final`'s `pendingNote`, and words the button of a choice with an empty label itself. A channel written for contract 5 isn't loaded by this core, and the log says why: rebuild it against `CHANNEL_API_VERSION` 6.
+
+### Patch Changes
+
+- 6bb8291: Needs the framework at 0.54.0 or later, the version that brings the contract it's written for (plugin contract 5, channel contract 6): the peer range on `@mercury-fw/plugin-types` and `@mercury-fw/cli-engine` (the plugins) or `@mercury-fw/channel-types` (the channels) starts there.
+
+## 0.8.2
+
+### Patch Changes
+
+- edfebb5: - `@mercury-fw/plugin-web-search`: an answer no longer lists its sources twice. When the model writes its own list of sources at the end of the answer, the plugin's `Fonti:` list replaces it, and `web_fetch`'s description tells the model the pages it reads are listed for it.
+  - `@mercury-fw/channel-google-chat`: once a choice on a confirmation card is taken, the card shows it ("Scelto: …") instead of the buttons. A click that confirms nothing (expired, or someone else's in a shared space) leaves the card as it is.
+  - `@mercury-fw/channel-types`: `confirmReply(outcome)`, the reply to each confirmation outcome, for a channel that resolves a token through `resolveConfirmation`.
+  - `@mercury-fw/confirm-engine`: `tryConfirm` answers with `confirmReply`, same texts as before.
+

 Each message reaches the core as `google-chat:users/<id>`, the sender's Chat user, with their email when Google vouches for it (a person's, never a bot's), which a user directory can join on: the ZITADEL directory of `@mercury-fw/plugin-zitadel` does.
 
+This version is written for version 6 of the channel contract, the one that brings the channels' texts in the person's language, and needs the framework at 0.54 or later: a core with an older contract skips it, and the log says why.
+
 When a plugin that acts as the person (Jira, Bitbucket) needs them to log in, the channel sends a card with a button that opens the service's login, visible only to that person: in a direct message the space is already theirs, in a shared space the card is a private message to whoever asked, since anyone else opening it would log their own account in as them. The service sends the browser back to the HTTP channel's `/login/callback`, so the app needs [`@mercury-fw/channel-http`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@mercury-fw/channel-http) with `HTTP_SURFACE_PUBLIC_URL` too; without it Mercury answers that nobody can log in on this instance.
 
-When a tool stages an action that needs confirming, the channel sends a card with the action and a button per choice the tool offers: one `Conferma` for a plain staging (deleting a Jira issue, say), more when there's a choice to make (the web search plugin offers "Solo questa volta" and "Sempre per \<host\>" before reading a page on a host nobody allowed). Clicking a button confirms that choice and the others die with it; typing the token in the conversation does the same. When the confirmed action's result goes back to the model (a page read after the person allowed it), the channel runs the conversation's turn again instead of sending the raw result, so the answer comes from the model, built on what came back.
+Every text the channel shows a person (the cards' titles and status lines, the confirm button, the replies to a confirmation) is in their language: the one they asked the assistant for, else the language of their Chat client when the event carries it, else the app's default. The cards' own texts are `google-chat.` keys an app translates in its language files.
