Error Reporting

⚠️ NEW SYSTEM (2025-01-02): Error reporting now uses Vercel Serverless Functions instead of direct Discord webhooks. See full documentation →

What it does

Automatically sends anonymized error reports to help improve the project. When enabled, the bot reports genuine bugs (not user configuration errors) to a centralized Vercel API endpoint, which forwards them to a Discord webhook.

Privacy

No sensitive data is sent: Emails, passwords, tokens, and file paths are automatically redacted.
Only genuine bugs are reported: User configuration errors (wrong password, missing files) are filtered out.
Completely optional: Disable in config.jsonc if you prefer not to participate.
Server-side rate limiting: Maximum 10 reports per minute per IP address.

How to configure

In src/config.jsonc:

{
  "errorReporting": {
    "enabled": true,  // Set to false to disable
    "apiUrl": "https://rewards-bot-eight.vercel.app/api/report-error",  // Optional: custom endpoint
    "secret": "your-secret-here"  // Optional: bypass rate limits (trusted clients)
  }
}

What gets reported

Error message (sanitized)
Stack trace (truncated to 15 lines, paths removed)
Bot version
OS platform and architecture
Node.js version
Timestamp
Bot mode (DESKTOP, MOBILE, MAIN)

What is filtered out

Login failures (your credentials are never sent)
Account suspensions/bans
Configuration errors (missing files, invalid settings)
Network timeouts
Expected errors (daily limit reached, activity not available)
Rebrowser-playwright internal errors (benign)

Migration from Old System

If you were using the old webhook-based system (pre-2025):

No action required - the bot automatically uses the new Vercel API
Old config fields (errorReporting.webhooks[]) are deprecated but still supported as fallback
Old webhook tracking files (sessions/disabled-webhooks.json) are no longer used

New System Benefits:

✅ Webhook URL never exposed in code
✅ Centralized control (maintainer-managed)
✅ Server-side rate limiting
✅ Simplified codebase (~300 lines removed)
