* fix: switch group batching from fixed timer to 5-second debounce
The old 10-minute fixed timer caused groups to feel unresponsive after
inactivity. Now uses debounce: timer resets on every new message, flushes
after 5 seconds of quiet. @mentions still flush immediately.
New config: groupDebounceSec (default 5). Old groupPollIntervalMin still
works (converted to ms) for backward compatibility.
Fixes#229

* feat: custom heartbeat prompt via YAML config or file
Wire up the existing but unused HeartbeatConfig.prompt field so users
can customize what the agent sees during heartbeats. Adds three ways
to set it: inline YAML (prompt), file-based (promptFile, re-read each
tick for live editing), and env var (HEARTBEAT_PROMPT). Also documents
the <no-reply/> opt-out behavior.
Fixes#232

* test: add coverage for heartbeat prompt resolution
Tests buildCustomHeartbeatPrompt and HeartbeatService prompt resolution:
- default prompt fallback
- inline prompt usage
- promptFile loading
- inline > promptFile precedence
- live reload (file re-read each tick)
- graceful fallback on missing file
- empty file falls back to default

Add a top-level `polling` section to lettabot.yaml for configuring
background polling (Gmail, etc.) instead of relying solely on env vars.
- Add `PollingYamlConfig` type with `enabled`, `intervalMs`, and `gmail` subsection
- Update `configToEnv()` to map new polling config to env vars
- Update `main.ts` to read from YAML config with env var fallback
- Maintain backward compat with `integrations.google` legacy path
- Document polling config in docs/configuration.md
Fixes#201

The model field in lettabot.yaml was redundant and misleading -- the model
is configured on the Letta agent server-side, and lettabot shouldn't
override it. Users were confused seeing a model in their startup log that
didn't match the actual model being used.
Changes:
- Remove `model` from `LettaBotConfig.agent` (made optional for backward compat)
- Remove `model` from `BotConfig` interface and `bot.ts` createAgent() calls
- Remove `model` from `main.ts` config construction and startup log
- Stop saving `model` to lettabot.yaml during onboarding
- Stop mapping `agent.model` to `MODEL` env var in config/io.ts
- Add `getAgentModel()` and `updateAgentModel()` to letta-api.ts
- Add new `src/commands/model.ts` with three subcommands:
- `lettabot model` - interactive model selector
- `lettabot model show` - show current agent model
- `lettabot model set <handle>` - set model directly
- Wire up model command in cli.ts with help text
- Update docs/configuration.md, lettabot.example.yaml, SKILL.md
Model selection during `lettabot onboard` is preserved for new agent
creation -- the selected model is passed to createAgent() but is NOT
saved to the config file.

* feat: add LETTABOT_CONFIG env var for config path
Addresses Discord feedback from fpl9000 who was confused about where
to put the config file after a global npm install.
Changes:
- Add LETTABOT_CONFIG env var that overrides the config search order
- Update error messages to show the env var option
- Document in docs/configuration.md
Now users doing global installs can either:
- Create ~/.lettabot/config.yaml, or
- Set LETTABOT_CONFIG=/path/to/config.yaml

"Configuration should be explicit, not magic." - The Twelve-Factor App
When user selects "dedicated bot number" mode (selfChatMode=false),
skip the dmPolicy question and default to allowlist. Prompt for
allowed phone numbers immediately.
This is simpler and safer than pairing mode, which sends codes to
whoever messages the bot.
Users who want pairing or open mode can edit lettabot.yaml manually.
Also updates docs to reflect the new defaults.
