[hermes] atlasbot: python:S1871 #125

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 at lines 167-169 both execute the identical statement should_send = True, so the two-branch conditional is really just an OR of the two conditions written as separate branches. This is what S1871 flags: merge them into one condition.

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 — The if snippet and snippet != last_note and elif now - last_sent >= max(...) branches both only set should_send = True, so they are the identical-branch case S1871 objects to. Combining them with or keeps the exact same truth table (should_send is True whenever either condition holds, False otherwise, since it defaults to False beforehand) while removing the duplicated 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
