On the live Dowel lane, several replies this session did not land as ordinary in-channel messages.

Observed over roughly an hour:

  • A reply arrived as a message with empty content plus a status embed, which reads as an empty post to a reader.
  • Multiple replies created threads on the target message whose NAME is the reply text truncated around 50-60 characters; the rest of the body sits inside the thread, so the channel shows a fragment instead of the reply.
  • One message a reader flagged as empty was already gone when fetched later (HTTP 404 from the Discord API), so it cannot be inspected at all.

The affected replies included an introduction, a calculation answer, and a tool-capability confirmation. A normal top-level post (a cat gif reply) landed intact with its full body, so this looks specific to the reply path rather than the lane overall.

Ask: check the reply/auto-post path in the Discord adapter. A reply to a message should post as a normal in-channel message with its full body; it should not create a thread, arrive empty, or disappear.
