OpenAI add-phone EU4 total-10 SMS run notes (2026-05-10)

Trigger

Use these notes when BOSS asks to broaden 5sim SMS phone-verification countries around Europe while keeping the latest strict OpenAI add-phone runner behavior.

User preference captured

When BOSS says to try a set of regions and says "设为/跑 10 次", interpret it as 10 total attempts across the configured country order unless BOSS explicitly says "每个国家 10 次". This avoids burning unnecessary 5sim orders.

Country order used

italy,poland,spain,england

Required OpenAI country mappings

5sim slug	OpenAI ISO	Visible selector text	Dial prefix
`italy`	`IT`	`意大利 (+39)`	`39`
`poland`	`PL`	`波兰 (+48)`	`48`
`spain`	`ES`	`西班牙 (+34)`	`34`
`england`	`GB`	`英国 (+44)`	`44`

Runner changes made during the session

A temporary latest runner was created from the strict-gate runner:

/tmp/phone_verify_eu4_total10_latest.py

It should be promoted/copied into the skill package if it continues to be useful. It differs from the previous strict runner by:

Adding Italy/Poland/Spain mappings.
Keeping UK mapping as england -> GB -> 英国 (+44).
Enforcing MAX_TOTAL_ATTEMPTS = 10 across all countries, not per-country.
Retaining the existing strict country gate before buy and before submit.
Retaining official-update learnings:
- probe resend channel before clicking;
- cancel/rotate if WhatsApp is detected under SMS-only policy;
- classify 500/contact-verification server errors;
- cancel activations if a gate or server error occurs.

First-run evidence

The EU4 run started successfully. The first attempt was Italy and passed the country gate before buying:

{"phase":"country_gate_before_buy","country":"italy","attempt":1,"ok":true,"country":"意大利 (+39)","selectValue":"IT","expected":"意大利 (+39)"}

A 5sim activation was bought only after the gate passed. Full phone number is intentionally not recorded.

Pitfalls

Do not rely on PHONE_VERIFICATION_REPLACEMENT_LIMIT=10 alone when multiple countries are configured; the old runner interprets that as per-country. Add a global attempt counter when BOSS asks for total attempts.
Keep the strict country/area-code gate. Do not submit European numbers while the selector is still 美国 (+1).
Keep SMS-only policy. Do not click WhatsApp resend unless BOSS explicitly approves switching away from SMS-only.
If the run is interrupted, immediately check/cancel any active 5sim activation in RECEIVED state.
