Here's the timeline, and it explains the confusion: • Your whereabouts ping landed at 094029 — but that was before the config reload. At that moment C0BDUSD4Y4V still wasn't on the allowlist, so it got dropped. • The config hot-reload actually applied at 094322, and the gateway now resolves both channels:

C0BFKL1VBGR→brain-legoat

and

C0BDUSD4Y4V→whereabouts

. So the plumbing is live now — your earlier ping just missed the window by ~3 minutes. Send a fresh message in whereabouts and I'll respond. Want me to fire a test message into the channel right now to confirm it works end-to-end?
