Since upgrading to High Sierra, I get a popup with this message at least once a day. I don't know what contactsdonationagent is but everything appears to be working correctly. Is there a way to keep this from happening?
MacBook, macOS High Sierra (10.13.1)
yep, same here.
contactsdonationagent
from
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/ContactsDonation.framework/Versions/A/Support/ contactsdonationagent
and the biinary appears to have been written in Swift3
So far I think it's related to Contacts. Maybe a contact being added or deleted has caused something to break.
The plist refers to lots of related things

I am not the OP, but I am having the same problem. In my case it does persist after restarting and I have not noticed that it happens at a certain time of day, but for me it happens (I would guess) every couple hours. I'll try to get a better estimate of how long there is between intervals.
Same problem here, once or twice a day
Same here, I have noticed that always show this popup when wake-up my macbook after several minutes of inactivity...
Same problem here, also get the popup from AppleSpell
contactsdonationagent quit unexpectedly
