SonarQube reports python:S1871 in atlasbot/matrix/bot.py. The build is green; this is a standing finding, not a failure.

What is wrong

In MatrixBot._answer_with_heartbeat, the if/elif pair at lines 167-170 both simply execute should_send = True, so the branches are identical and Sonar flags the duplication. The two conditions should be combined with or into a single branch since there is no behavioral difference between them.

Ariadne opened no pull request for it: no automated patch was possible for this finding.

Facts

gitea — Either merge this branch with the identical one on line "168" or change one of the implementations. (MAJOR, 10min estimated) (atlasbot/matrix/bot.py:170)

Suggested fix (not applied)

Hermes could not open a pull request for this, so the change below was not written, validated, or pushed anywhere. It is a starting point for whoever picks this up, not a reviewed patch.

atlasbot/matrix/bot.py — Lines 168 and 170 both set should_send = True, making the if/elif split pointless duplication. Combining the two conditions with or into one if-statement preserves the exact same truth table (should_send becomes True when either condition holds, otherwise stays False) while eliminating the identical branch bodies.

should_send = False
                if (snippet and snippet != last_note) or (
                    now - last_sent >= max(60.0, self._settings.thinking_interval_sec * 2)
                ):
                    should_send = True
