-# Auto Review
-
-Run the bundled structured review helper as a closeout check. This is code review, not Guardian `auto_review` approval routing.
-
-Codex review is the default when no engine is set. It usually delivers the best review results and should remain the normal final closeout engine.
-
-Use when:
-
-- user asks for Codex review / Claude review / autoreview / second-model review
-- after non-trivial code edits, before final/commit/ship
-- reviewing a local branch or PR branch after fixes
-
-## Contract
-
-- Treat review output as advisory. Never blindly apply it.
-- Verify every finding by reading the real code path and adjacent files.
-- Read dependency docs/source/types when the finding depends on external behavior.
-- Reject unrealistic edge cases, speculative risks, broad rewrites, and fixes that over-complicate the codebase.
-- Prefer small fixes at the right ownership boundary; no refactor unless it clearly improves the bug class.
-- Keep going until structured review returns no accepted/actionable findings.
-- If a review-triggered fix changes code, rerun focused tests and rerun the structured review helper.
-- For security-audit suppression changes, verify accepted findings remain auditable: suppressed findings stay in structured output, active output keeps an unsuppressible suppression notice, and aggregate findings cannot hide unrelated active risk.
-- Never switch or override the requested review engine/model. If the review hits model capacity, retry the same command a few times with the same engine/model.
-- Tools are useful in review mode. The helper allows read-only inspection tools and web search by default so reviewers can check dependency contracts, upstream docs, and current behavior.
-- Security perspective is always included, but it should not cripple legitimate functionality. Report security findings only when the change creates a concrete, actionable risk or removes an important safety check.
-- Do not invoke built-in `codex review`, nested reviewers, or reviewer panels from inside the review. The helper builds one bundle, calls one selected engine, validates one structured result, and stops.
-- Stop as soon as the helper exits 0 with no accepted/actionable findings. Do not run an extra review just to get a nicer "clean" line, a second opinion, or clearer closeout wording.
-- Treat the helper's successful exit plus absence of actionable findings as the clean review result, even if the underlying Codex CLI output is terse.
-- If rejecting a finding as intentional/not worth fixing, add a brief inline code comment only when it explains a real invariant or ownership decision that future reviewers should know.
-- If `gh`/Gitcrawl reports `database disk image is malformed`, run `gitcrawl doctor --json` once to let the portable cache repair before retrying review; do not bypass the shim unless repair fails and freshness requires live GitHub.
-- If Gitcrawl reports a portable manifest mismatch, source/runtime DB health error, or stale portable-store checkout, run `gitcrawl doctor --json` and inspect `source_db_health`, `runtime_db_health`, and `portable_store_status` before falling back to live GitHub.
-- Do not push just to review. Push only when the user requested push/ship/PR update.
-
-## Pick Target
-
-Dirty local work:
-
-```bash
-<autoreview-helper> --mode local
-```
-
-Use this only when the patch is actually unstaged/staged/untracked in the
-current checkout. For committed, pushed, or PR work, point the helper at the commit
-or branch diff instead; do not force `--mode local` / `--uncommitted` just
-because the helper docs mention dirty work first. A clean local review
-only proves there is no local patch.
-
-Branch/PR work:
-
-```bash
-<autoreview-helper> --mode branch --base origin/main
-```
-
-Optional review context is first-class:
-
-```bash
-<autoreview-helper> --mode branch --base origin/main --prompt-file /tmp/review-notes.md --dataset /tmp/evidence.json
-```
-
-If an open PR exists, use its actual base:
-
-```bash
-base=$(gh pr view --json baseRefName --jq .baseRefName)
-<autoreview-helper> --mode branch --base "origin/$base"
-```
-
-Committed single change:
-
-```bash
-<autoreview-helper> --mode commit --commit HEAD
-```
-
-or with the helper:
-
-```bash
-/Users/steipete/Projects/agent-scripts/skills/autoreview/scripts/autoreview --mode commit --commit HEAD
-```
-
-Use commit review for already-landed or already-pushed work on `main`. Reviewing
-clean `main` against `origin/main` is usually an empty diff after push. For a
-small stack, review each commit explicitly or review the branch before merging
-with `--base`.
-
-## Parallel Closeout
-
-Format first if formatting can change line locations. Then it is OK to run tests and review in parallel:
-
-```bash
-scripts/autoreview --parallel-tests "<focused test command>"
-```
-
-Tradeoff: tests may force code changes that stale the review. If tests or review lead to code edits, rerun the affected tests and rerun review until no accepted/actionable findings remain. Once that rerun exits cleanly, stop; do not spend another long review cycle on redundant confirmation.
-
-## Context Efficiency
-
-Run the helper directly so target selection, engine choice, structured validation, and exit status all stay in one path. If output is noisy, summarize the completed helper output after it returns; do not ask another agent or reviewer to rerun the review.
-
-## Helper
-
-OpenClaw repo-local helper:
-
-```bash
-.agents/skills/autoreview/scripts/autoreview --help
-```
-
-`agent-scripts` checkout helper:
-
-```bash
-skills/autoreview/scripts/autoreview --help
-```
-
-Global helper from `agent-scripts`:
-
-```bash
-~/.codex/skills/agent-scripts/autoreview/scripts/autoreview --help
-```
-
-If installed from `agent-scripts`, path is:
-
-```bash
-/Users/steipete/Projects/agent-scripts/skills/autoreview/scripts/autoreview --help
-```
-
-The helper:
-
-- chooses dirty local changes first
-- otherwise uses current PR base if `gh pr view` works
-- otherwise uses `origin/main` for non-main branches
-- supports `--engine codex`, `claude`, `droid`, `copilot`, `pi`, and `opencode`; default is `AUTOREVIEW_ENGINE` or `codex`; Codex should remain the default when nothing is set
-- `--engine pi` requires an explicit `--model` because the helper isolates Pi's config directory during review
-- use `--mode commit --commit <ref>` for already-committed work, especially clean `main` after landing
-- should be left in `--mode auto` or forced to `--mode branch` for PR/branch work; do not force `--mode local` after committing
-- writes only to stdout unless `--output` or `--json-output` is set
-- supports `--dry-run`, `--parallel-tests`, `--prompt`, `--prompt-file`, `--dataset`, `--no-tools`, `--no-web-search`, and commit refs
-- allows read-only tools and web search by default where the selected CLI supports them; forbids nested review in the prompt; Codex is run through `codex exec` with read-only sandbox and structured output
-- prints `autoreview clean: no accepted/actionable findings reported` when the selected review command exits 0
-- exits nonzero when accepted/actionable findings are present
-
-## Final Report
-
-Include:
-
-- review command used
-- tests/proof run
-- findings accepted/rejected, briefly why
-- the clean review result from the final helper/review run, or why a remaining finding was consciously rejected
-
-Do not run another review solely to improve the final report wording. If the final helper run exited 0 and produced no accepted/actionable findings, report that exact run as clean.

-        - You may use read-only tools and web search to inspect files, dependency contracts, upstream docs, current behavior, and security implications.
-        - Shell commands, if available, must be read-only inspection commands. Do not run tests, formatters, package installs, generators, network mutation commands, git mutation commands, or commands that write files.
-        - Report only actionable defects introduced or exposed by this change.
-        - Prefer high-signal findings over style feedback.
-        - Include security findings: injection, secret leaks, authz/authn bypass, path traversal, unsafe deserialization, unsafe filesystem or shell use, privacy leaks, and credential handling.
-        - Do not reject legitimate functionality merely because it touches shell, filesystem, network, auth, or sensitive data. Report a security finding only when the patch creates a concrete exploitable risk, removes an important safety check, or lacks validation at a trust boundary.
-        - For each finding, use the smallest file/line location that demonstrates the issue.

-# Channel Message Flows
-
-Use this from the OpenClaw repo root to send canned channel preview flows while iterating on message UX. These are real sends/edits/deletes against the configured channel target.
-
-## Telegram
-
-Native Telegram `sendMessageDraft` tool progress, then a final answer:
-
-```bash
-node --import tsx scripts/dev/channel-message-flows.ts \
-  --channel telegram \
-  --target <telegram-chat-id> \
-  --flow working-final \
-  --duration-ms 20000
-```
-
-Thinking preview, then a final answer:
-
-```bash
-node --import tsx scripts/dev/channel-message-flows.ts \
-  --channel telegram \
-  --target <telegram-chat-id> \
-  --flow thinking-final
-```
-
-## Options
-
-- `--account <accountId>`: Telegram account id when not using the default.
-- `--thread-id <id>`: Telegram forum topic/message thread id.
-- `--delay-ms <ms>`: Override preview update cadence.
-- `--duration-ms <ms>`: Simulated working duration for `working-final`.
-- `--final-text <text>`: Override the durable final message.
-
-## Notes
-
-- `--target` is the numeric Telegram chat id.
-- `working-final` exercises native Telegram `sendMessageDraft` with static `Working` status and sample tool progress.
-- `thinking-final` exercises formatted `Thinking` reasoning preview clearing before the final answer.
-- Only `--channel telegram` is implemented for now.

-order by m.created_at desc
-limit 1;"
-```
-
-Show only `@handle` in the final list. Do not write the word Discord unless the user asks for source details.
-
-## Live GitHub recheck
-
-Always recheck live state before listing, closing, or saying "open".
-
-```bash
-GITHUB_TOKEN= GITHUB_TOKEN_NODIFF= GH_TOKEN= \
-gh api repos/openclaw/openclaw/pulls/<number> \
-  --jq '. | {number,title,state,merged,mergeable,draft,author:.user.login,url:.html_url,updatedAt:.updated_at,additions,deletions,changedFiles:.changed_files}'
-```
-
-For issues:
-
-```bash
-GITHUB_TOKEN= GITHUB_TOKEN_NODIFF= GH_TOKEN= \
-gh api repos/openclaw/openclaw/issues/<number> \
-  --jq '. | {number,title,state,author:.user.login,url:.html_url,updatedAt:.updated_at,pull_request}'
-```
-
-If `gh` says bad credentials, clear env vars with empty assignments as above. Use `--jq '. | {...}'` for object projections.
-
-## Review depth
-
-For each open item, inspect enough to classify risk:
-
-- PR body, linked issue, comments, files, additions/deletions, checks.
-- Current `origin/main` code path and adjacent tests.
-- Related threads with `gitcrawl neighbors/search`.
-- Whether main already fixed it, the PR is obsolete, or the idea is invalid.
-- Blast radius: touched runtime surfaces, config/schema, plugin/core boundary, user-visible behavior, release/package surface.
-- Verification: say if local unit/docs proof is enough, live/provider proof is needed, or it is not directly verifiable.
-
-Do not close from title alone. If closing as done on main or nonsensical, prove it against current main and comment first when mutation is requested. Bulk close/reopen above 5 requires explicit scope.
-
-## Candidate selection
-
-When asked for `5 new`, exclude refs already surfaced in the session and refill from the archive until there are 5 live-open candidates. If fewer than 5 remain open, list all open ones and say how many short.
-
-When asked to `update`, `refresh`, `recheck`, `check again`, or similar, return an updated live-open candidate list. Do not fill the main list with items that merely merged/closed since the last pass; put those numbers in a short bottom line.
-
-Prefer:
-
-- Fresh, open, external contributor work.
-- Small, high-confidence bugfixes.
-- Clear repro, tests, or obvious code-path proof.
-
-Demote:
-
-- Broad product/features without owner decision.
-- Large rewrites with unclear contract.
-- PRs already in progress, merged, closed, duplicate, or fixed on main.
-
-## Topic grouping
-
-Group only when useful or requested:
-
-- Agents/tooling
-- Providers/auth/models
-- Channels/messaging
-- UI/web
-- Gateway/protocol/runtime
-- Config/memory/cache
-- Docker/install/release
-- Docs/tests/chore
-- Closed/obsolete
-
-Infer topic from labels, touched files, title/body, and actual code path.
-
-## Output format
-
-No Markdown tables. Compact bullets. Use color/risk markers:
-
-- 🟢 low/narrow
-- 🟡 medium or needs targeted proof
-- 🔴 broad/high runtime risk
-- 🟣 security/policy/owner-boundary slow review
-- ✅ merged
-- ⚪ closed unmerged
-
-Required line shape:
-
-```markdown
-- **PR #81244** `@whatsskill.` `+118/-1` `bug` 🟢 verifiable: yes. This prevents chat action buttons from overlapping short assistant replies. Blast: web chat rendering, low.
-- **Issue #81245** `@alice` `LOC n/a` `bug` 🟡 verifiable: partial. This reports duplicate Telegram replies when reconnecting after gateway restart. Blast: Telegram channel runtime, medium.
-```
-
-Rules:
-
-- Bold the `PR #n` or `Issue #n` marker.
-- Use `@handle`, not author bio text.
-- PR LOC is `+additions/-deletions`; issue LOC is `LOC n/a`.
-- Type: `bug`, `feature`, `perf`, `security`, `docs`, `test`, `chore`, or `refactor`.
-- Write a full sentence for what it does.
-- Always include blast radius in one phrase.
-- Always include `verifiable: yes|partial|no` plus the shortest proof hint when helpful.
-- If status is not open, still show it only when the user asked for all surfaced refs; use ✅ or ⚪ and state merged/closed.
-- For refresh-style asks, bottom line: `Merged/closed since last pass: #81016 merged, #81026 closed.` Omit if none.

-name: control-ui-e2e
-description: Use when testing, fixing, or extending the OpenClaw Control UI GUI with Vitest + Playwright end-to-end checks, mocked Gateway WebSocket flows, mocked dashboard runs, screenshots/videos, or agent-verifiable browser proof.
----
-
-# Control UI E2E
-
-Use this for Control UI changes that need a real browser flow with deterministic Gateway data.
-
-## Test Shape
-
-- Use `ui/src/**/*.e2e.test.ts` for full GUI flows.
-- Use `ui/src/test-helpers/control-ui-e2e.ts` to start the Vite Control UI and install a mocked Gateway WebSocket.
-- Keep scenarios deterministic. Do not use live provider keys, real channel credentials, or a real Gateway unless the user explicitly asks for live proof.
-- Prefer existing `.browser.test.ts` or unit tests for narrow rendering logic; use this E2E lane when the proof should cover routing, app boot, Gateway handshake, requests, and visible UI behavior together.
-
-## Commands
-
-- Target one E2E test in a Codex worktree:
-
-```bash
-node scripts/run-vitest.mjs run --config test/vitest/vitest.ui-e2e.config.ts --configLoader runner ui/src/ui/e2e/chat-flow.e2e.test.ts
-```
-
-- Run the whole local lane in a normal checkout:
-
-```bash
-pnpm test:ui:e2e
-```
-
-If dependencies are missing in a Codex worktree, install once with `pnpm install`; for broad GUI proof or dependency-heavy checks, use Testbox/Crabbox instead of running a wide local pnpm lane.
-
-## Visual Proof Default
-
-When running mocked Control UI/dashboard validation for a user-facing feature, produce visual proof by default unless the user explicitly opts out.
-
-- Keep the Vitest E2E assertions deterministic; do not commit generated screenshots or videos.
-- After or alongside the focused E2E test, run the mocked Control UI app when available, for example `pnpm dev:ui:mock -- --port <port>`.
-- Drive Chromium with Playwright against the local mock URL and capture a video plus screenshots for each meaningful state: initial view, interaction input, result state, and final/paginated/selected state.
-- Use `browser.newContext({ recordVideo: { dir, size }, viewport })`, `page.screenshot({ path })`, and close the context before reporting the video path.
-- Put artifacts under `.artifacts/control-ui-e2e/<short-feature-name>/` or another clearly named local temp directory, and report the absolute paths in the final answer.
-- If visual proof is blocked, state the exact blocker and still report the textual E2E evidence.
-
-## Mock Pattern
-
-Start the app server, install the mock before `page.goto`, then assert both Gateway traffic and visible UI:
-
-```ts
-const server = await startControlUiE2eServer();
-const page = await context.newPage();
-const gateway = await installMockGateway(page, {
-  historyMessages: [{ role: "assistant", content: [{ type: "text", text: "Ready." }] }],
-});
-
-await page.goto(`${server.baseUrl}chat`);
-await page.locator(".agent-chat__composer-combobox textarea").fill("hello");
-await page.getByRole("button", { name: "Send message" }).click();
-
-const request = await gateway.waitForRequest("chat.send");
-await gateway.emitChatFinal({ runId: String(request.params.idempotencyKey), text: "Done." });
-await page.getByText("Done.").waitFor();
-```
-
-Extend `installMockGateway` with typed scenario options or method responses when a new flow needs more Gateway surface.

+checks, secrets, hosted services, Docker/E2E/package lanes, warmed reusable
+boxes, sync timing, logs/results, cache inspection, or lease cleanup.
 
-Crabbox is the transport/orchestration surface. The actual backend can be:
-
-- brokered AWS Crabbox: direct provider, `provider=aws`, lease ids like
-  `cbx_...`, `syncDelegated=false`
-- Blacksmith Testbox through Crabbox: delegated provider,
-  `provider=blacksmith-testbox`, ids like `tbx_...`, `syncDelegated=true`
-
-For OpenClaw maintainer broad `pnpm` gates, Blacksmith Testbox through the
-Crabbox wrapper is acceptable and often preferred when the standing Testbox
-rules apply. Do not describe those runs as "AWS Crabbox"; report them as
-Testbox-through-Crabbox with the `tbx_...` id and Actions run.
-
-Use the repo `.crabbox.yaml` brokered AWS path when the task specifically needs
-direct AWS Crabbox behavior, persistent direct-provider leases, `--fresh-pr`,
-`--full-resync`, environment forwarding, capture/download support, or provider
-comparison. Use `--provider blacksmith-testbox` when the task needs OpenClaw
-maintainer Testbox proof, prepared CI environment, broad/heavy pnpm gates, or
-the user asks for Testbox/Blacksmith.
+Default backend: `blacksmith-testbox`. The separate `blacksmith-testbox` skill

 ## macOS And Windows Targets
 
 Use these only when the task needs an existing non-Linux host. OpenClaw broad
-Linux validation uses the repo Crabbox config unless a provider is explicitly
-requested.
-
-Native brokered Windows is available for Windows-specific proof. Use the AWS

-  --windows-mode normal \
-  --region us-west-2 \
-  --market on-demand \
-  --timing-json
-```
-
-The hydrate workflow assumes Docker should already be baked into Linux images
-and only installs it as a fallback. Do not add per-run Docker installs to proof
-commands unless the image probe shows Docker is actually missing.
-
-When the user explicitly asks for brokered macOS runners, use Crabbox AWS
-macOS only after confirming the deployed coordinator supports EC2 Mac host
-lifecycle/image routes and the operator has AWS EC2 Mac Dedicated Host quota
-and IAM. Prefer `CRABBOX_HOST_ID` for a known Crabbox-managed Dedicated Host,
-or run the no-spend preflight first:

-- `--preflight`: prints run context, workspace mode, SSH target, remote user/cwd,
-  and target-specific tool probes. Defaults cover `git`, `tar`, `node`, `npm`,
-  `corepack`, `pnpm`, `yarn`, `bun`, `docker`, plus POSIX
-  `sudo`/`apt`/`bubblewrap` and native Windows
-  `powershell`/`execution_policy`/`longpaths`/`temp`/`pwsh`. Add
-  `--preflight-tools node,bun,docker`, `CRABBOX_PREFLIGHT_TOOLS`, or repo
-  `run.preflightTools` to replace the list. `default` expands built-ins; `none`
-  prints only the workspace summary. Preflight is diagnostic only; install
-  toolchains through Actions hydration, images, devcontainer/Nix/mise/asdf, or
-  the run script. On `blacksmith-testbox`, this prints a delegated-unsupported
-  note because the workflow owns setup.
-- `CRABBOX_ENV_ALLOW=NAME,...`: forwards only listed local env vars for direct
-  providers and prints `set len=N secret=true` style summaries. On
-  `blacksmith-testbox`, env forwarding is unsupported; put secrets in the
-  Testbox workflow instead.
-- `--env-from-profile <file>` plus `--allow-env NAME`: loads simple
-  `export NAME=value` / `NAME=value` lines from a local profile without
-  executing it, then forwards only allowlisted names. `--allow-env` is
-  repeatable and comma-separated. Profile values override ambient allowlisted
-  env values for that run. Direct POSIX, WSL2, and native Windows runs are
-  supported; delegated providers are not. Crabbox probes the uploaded profile
-  remotely and prints redacted presence/length metadata before the command.
-- `--env-helper <name>`: with `--env-from-profile` on POSIX SSH targets,
-  persists `.crabbox/env/<name>` and `.crabbox/env/<name>.env` so follow-up
-  commands on the same lease can run through `./.crabbox/env/<name> <command>`.
-  Use only on leases you control; the profile stays until cleanup, lease reset,
-  or `--full-resync`.
-- `--script <file>` / `--script-stdin`: upload a local script into
-  `.crabbox/scripts/` and execute it on the remote box. Shebang scripts execute
-  directly on POSIX; scripts without a shebang run through `bash`. Native
-  Windows uploads run through Windows PowerShell, and Crabbox appends `.ps1`
-  when needed. Arguments after `--` become script args.
-- `--fresh-pr owner/repo#123|URL|number`: skip dirty local sync and create a
-  fresh remote checkout of the GitHub PR. Bare numbers use the current repo's
-  GitHub origin. Add `--apply-local-patch` only when the current local
-  `git diff --binary HEAD` should be applied on top of that PR checkout.
-- `--full-resync` / `--fresh-sync`: reset a stale direct-provider workdir
-  before syncing. Use after sync fingerprints look wrong, SSH times out before
-  sync, or rsync watchdog output suggests it. It is redundant with
-  `--fresh-pr`, incompatible with `--no-sync`, and unsupported by delegated
-  providers.
-- `--capture-stdout <path>` / `--capture-stderr <path>`: write remote streams to
-  local files and keep binary/noisy output out of retained logs. Parent
-  directories must already exist. These are direct-provider only.
-- `--capture-on-fail`: on non-zero direct-provider exits, downloads
-  `.crabbox/captures/*.tar.gz` with `test-results`, `playwright-report`,
-  `coverage`, JUnit XML, and nearby logs. Treat as secret-bearing until reviewed.
-- `--keep-on-failure`: leave a failed one-shot lease alive for live debugging
-  until idle/TTL expiry. Useful on direct providers and delegated one-shots.
-- `--timing-json`: final machine-readable timing. Add
-  `echo CRABBOX_PHASE:install`, `CRABBOX_PHASE:test`, etc. in long shell
-  commands; direct providers and Blacksmith Testbox both report them as
-  `commandPhases`.
-
-Live-provider debug template for direct AWS/Hetzner leases:
-
-```sh
-mkdir -p .crabbox/logs
-pnpm crabbox:run -- --provider aws \
-  --preflight \
-  --allow-env OPENAI_API_KEY,OPENAI_BASE_URL \
-  --timing-json \
-  --capture-stdout .crabbox/logs/live-provider.stdout.log \
-  --capture-stderr .crabbox/logs/live-provider.stderr.log \
-  --capture-on-fail \
-  --shell -- \

-
-Do not pass `--capture-*`, `--download`, `--checksum`, `--force-sync-large`, or
-`--sync-only` to delegated providers. Also do not pass `--script*`,
-`--fresh-pr`, `--full-resync`, or `--env-helper` there. Crabbox rejects these
-because the provider owns sync or command transport. `--keep-on-failure` is OK

 # Gitcrawl
 
-Use local GitHub issue/PR archives before live GitHub search. Check freshness first:
+Use this skill before live GitHub search when triaging OpenClaw issues or PRs.
+
+`gitcrawl` is the local candidate-discovery layer. It is fast, includes open and closed threads, and can surface duplicate attempts, related issues, and already-landed fixes. It is not the final source of truth for comments, labels, merges, closes, or current CI.
+
+## Default Flow
+
+1. Check local state:
 
 ```bash
 gitcrawl doctor --json
 ```
 
-Find candidates:
+2. Read the target from the local archive:
 
 ```bash
 gitcrawl threads openclaw/openclaw --numbers <issue-or-pr-number> --include-closed --json
-gitcrawl neighbors openclaw/openclaw --number <issue-or-pr-number> --limit 12 --json
-gitcrawl search issues "query" -R openclaw/openclaw --state open --json number,title,url
-gitcrawl clusters openclaw/openclaw --sort size --min-size 5
-gitcrawl cluster-detail openclaw/openclaw --id <cluster-id>
 ```
 
-For PR triage, start cached and go live only before mutation/merge decisions:
+3. Find related candidates:
 
 ```bash
-gitcrawl gh pr status <number-or-url> -R openclaw/openclaw --compact
-gitcrawl gh pr view <number-or-url> -R openclaw/openclaw --json number,title,state,url,isDraft,headRef,headSha
-gitcrawl gh --live pr status <number-or-url> -R openclaw/openclaw --compact
+gitcrawl neighbors openclaw/openclaw --number <issue-or-pr-number> --limit 12 --json
+gitcrawl search openclaw/openclaw --query "<scope or title keywords>" --mode hybrid --limit 20 --json
 ```
 
-Use live `gh` plus checkout proof before commenting, labeling, closing, reopening, merging, or filing a PR review:
+4. Inspect relevant clusters:
+
+```bash
+gitcrawl cluster-detail openclaw/openclaw --id <cluster-id> --member-limit 20 --body-chars 280 --json
+```
+
+5. Verify anything actionable with live GitHub and the checkout:
 
 ```bash
 gh pr view <number> --json number,title,state,mergedAt,body,files,comments,reviews,statusCheckRollup
 gh issue view <number> --json number,title,state,body,comments,closedAt
 ```
 
-Report absolute dates, repo names, issue/PR numbers, cluster ids, and source gaps. Do not close/label from similarity alone; require matching intent plus live verification.
+## Freshness Rules
+
+- Treat `gitcrawl` as stale if `doctor` shows no target thread, an old `last_sync_at`, missing embeddings for neighbor/search commands, or a clearly wrong open/closed state.
+- If stale data blocks the decision, refresh the portable store first:
+
+```bash
+gitcrawl init --portable-store git@github.com:openclaw/gitcrawl-store.git --json
+```
+
+- Run expensive update commands such as `gitcrawl sync --include-comments` only when the user asked to update the local store or stale data is blocking the decision.
+- The sync default is all GitHub thread states; pass `--state open`, `--state closed`, or `--state all` only when a task requires a narrower or explicit scope.
+
+## Boundaries
+
+- Use `gitcrawl` for candidates, clusters, and historical context.
+- Use `gh`, `gh api`, and the current checkout for live state before commenting, labeling, closing, reopening, merging, or filing a PR review.
+- Do not close or label based only on `gitcrawl` similarity. Require matching problem intent plus live verification.
+- If `gitcrawl` is unavailable, say so and fall back to targeted `gh search` rather than blocking normal maintainer work.

-description: Debug OpenClaw model, provider, tool-surface, code-mode, streaming, and live/Crabbox behavior by choosing the right logs, probes, and proof path before changing code.
----
-
-# OpenClaw Debugging
-
-Use this skill when OpenClaw behavior differs between local tests, live models,
-providers, code mode, Tool Search, Crabbox, or CI, and the next move should be a
-debug signal rather than a guess.
-
-## Read First
-
-- `docs/logging.md` for log files, `openclaw logs`, and targeted debug flags.
-- `docs/reference/test.md` for local test commands.
-- `docs/reference/code-mode.md` for code-mode exec/wait and tool catalog rules.
-- Use `$openclaw-testing` for choosing test lanes.
-- Use `$crabbox` for broad, Docker, package, Linux, live-key, or CI-parity proof.
-
-## Default Loop
-
-1. State the suspected boundary: config, tool construction, provider payload,
-   fetch, stream/SSE, transcript replay, worker/runtime, package/dist, or CI.
-2. Add or enable the narrowest signal that proves that boundary.
-3. Reproduce with the same provider/model/config. Do not randomly switch models
-   unless the model itself is the variable being tested.
-4. Compare configured state with actual run activation.
-5. Patch the root cause.
-6. Rerun the exact failing probe, then broaden only if the contract requires it.
-
-## Model Transport Logs
-
-Use targeted env flags instead of global debug when the model request shape or
-stream timing matters:
-
-```bash
-OPENCLAW_DEBUG_MODEL_TRANSPORT=1 openclaw gateway
-OPENCLAW_DEBUG_MODEL_PAYLOAD=tools OPENCLAW_DEBUG_SSE=events openclaw gateway
-OPENCLAW_DEBUG_MODEL_PAYLOAD=full-redacted OPENCLAW_DEBUG_SSE=peek openclaw gateway
-```
-
-Useful flags:
-
-- `OPENCLAW_DEBUG_MODEL_TRANSPORT=1`: request start, fetch response, SDK
-  headers, first SSE event, stream done, and transport errors at `info`.
-- `OPENCLAW_DEBUG_MODEL_PAYLOAD=summary`: bounded payload summary.
-- `OPENCLAW_DEBUG_MODEL_PAYLOAD=tools`: all model-facing tool names.
-- `OPENCLAW_DEBUG_MODEL_PAYLOAD=full-redacted`: capped, redacted JSON payload.
-  Use only while debugging; prompts/message text may still appear.
-- `OPENCLAW_DEBUG_SSE=events`: first-event and stream-completion timing.
-- `OPENCLAW_DEBUG_SSE=peek`: first five redacted SSE events.
-- `OPENCLAW_DEBUG_CODE_MODE=1`: code-mode tool-surface diagnostics.
-
-Watch logs with:
-
-```bash
-openclaw logs --follow
-```
-
-## Common Boundaries
-
-- **Config vs activation:** config can be enabled while the run disables tools,
-  is raw, has an empty allowlist, or lacks model tool support. Check the actual
-  visible tools before enforcing provider payload invariants.
-- **Tool surface:** inspect final model-visible tool names, not only the tool
-  registry or config. Code mode means exactly `exec` and `wait` only after it
-  actually activates.
-- **Provider payload:** log fields, model id, service tier, reasoning, input
-  size, metadata keys, prompt-cache key presence, and tool names before SDK
-  call.
-- **Fetch vs SSE:** fetch response proves HTTP headers arrived; first SSE event
-  proves provider body progress. A gap here is a stream/body/provider issue, not
-  tool execution.
-- **Worker/dist:** run `pnpm build` when touching workers, dynamic imports,
-  package exports, lazy runtime boundaries, or published paths.
-- **Live keys:** use the configured secret workflow for missing provider keys
-  before saying live proof is blocked. Env checks are presence-only; never print
-  secrets.
-
-## Code Pointers
-
-- Model payload + Responses stream:
-  `src/agents/openai-transport-stream.ts`
-- Guarded fetch/timing:
-  `src/agents/provider-transport-fetch.ts`
-- OpenAI/Codex provider wrappers:
-  `src/agents/pi-embedded-runner/openai-stream-wrappers.ts`
-- Tool construction, Tool Search, code-mode activation:
-  `src/agents/pi-embedded-runner/run/attempt.ts`
-- Code-mode runtime and worker:
-  `src/agents/code-mode.ts`
-  `src/agents/code-mode.worker.ts`
-- Tool Search catalog:
-  `src/agents/tool-search.ts`
-
-## Proof Choice
-
-- Single helper/payload bug: local targeted Vitest.
-- Docs/logging-only: `pnpm check:docs` and `git diff --check`.
-- Worker/dist/lazy import/package surface: targeted tests plus `pnpm build`.
-- Live provider/model behavior: same provider/model with debug flags and a real
-  key if available.
-- Docker/package/Linux/CI-parity: `$crabbox`.
-- CI failure: exact SHA, relevant job only, logs only after failure/completion.
-
-## Output Habit
-
-Report:
-

-- exact command/env shape, redacted
-- observed signal, such as tool names or first SSE event timing
-- fix location

-
-# OpenClaw Docker E2E Authoring
-
-Use this when adding or changing Docker E2E lanes, release-path Docker tests,
-or live-provider Docker proof.
-
-## Lane Choice
-
-- Deterministic Docker: fake the dependency/server and assert the exact runtime
-  contract crossing the boundary.
-- Live Docker: use real provider credentials/model only when user-visible
-  behavior needs the real service.
-- Prefer both when they prove different risks: deterministic for byte/payload
-  routing, live for actual provider behavior.
-
-## Authoring Rules
-
-- Test-only helpers live in `test/helpers` or `scripts/e2e/lib/<lane>/`, not
-  `src/**`, unless production imports them.
-- Package-installed app runs from `/app`; mount only explicit harness/helper
-  paths read-only.
-- Fake servers should log boundary requests as JSONL and clients should assert
-  the real dependency payload, not just process success.
-- Add the package script and `scripts/lib/docker-e2e-scenarios.mjs` lane in the
-  same change.
-- If a lane installs a plugin from npm, default the spec via env so published
-  and local override paths are both testable.
-
-## Media And Vision
-
-- Expected answer must exist only in pixels or provider output being tested.
-- Use neutral filenames, neutral prompts, and no metadata leaks.
-- Random bitmap/OCR tokens reuse the repo OCR-safe alphabet `24567ACEF` unless
-  the test owns a stronger glyph set.
-- Make the expected answer unique per run when proving real image
-  understanding.
-
-## `chat.send` E2E
-
-- Require `chat.send` to return `status: "started"` and a string `runId`.
-- Wait for completion with `agent.wait`.
-- Assert final user-visible text via `chat.history` when event ordering is not
-  the behavior under test.
-- Keep originating channel/account metadata only when the bug path needs queued
-  inbound/channel context.
-
-## Verification
-
-Run the smallest proof that covers the touched lane:
-
-```bash
-pnpm exec oxfmt --write <changed files>
-node --check <new .mjs files>
-bash -n <new .sh files>
-node scripts/run-vitest.mjs test/scripts/docker-e2e-plan.test.ts
-OPENCLAW_SKIP_DOCKER_BUILD=1 pnpm test:docker:<lane>
-```
-
-For real-provider lanes, run the matching live Docker script after deterministic
-Docker is green. Finish with `$autoreview` before commit/PR.

-Do not present a PR as one of the five until it has been refreshed on current `main`, left-tested, pushed, and verified green in live GitHub CI.
-
-## Companion Skills
-
-Use `$gitcrawl` for discovery/clustering, `$openclaw-pr-maintainer` for live GitHub mutation rules, `$github-author-context` when contributor trust matters, `$openclaw-testing` for proof choice, `$autoreview` before publishing/landing, and `$crabbox` for broad/E2E/live proof.
-
-## Candidate Bar
-
-Accept only when all are true:
-
-- bug or paper cut, not feature/product/support/docs-only
-- root cause is proven in current code
-- dependency behavior checked via upstream docs/source/types when relevant
-- production/runtime diff is small, ideally much smaller than 500 LOC and always below 500 LOC
-- tests may be larger, but focused
-- no new dependency
-- no new config option
-- no backward-incompatible behavior
-- no security/product/owner-boundary decision needed
-- no plugin SDK, public plugin API, or `src/plugin-sdk/**` boundary change
-- no broad refactor smell
-- focused proof is feasible
-- branch can be rebased/refreshed and pushed, or a replacement PR can be created
-
-Good examples:
-
-- provider parameter mismatch proven against dependency/API contract
-- CLI command diverges from adjacent command behavior
-- narrow runtime state/serialization bug with failing test
-- issue already fixed on current `main`, with proof and closeable duplicates
-
-Reject:
-
-- feature requests, new knobs, migrations, release work, workflow policy, support
-- plugin SDK/API boundary changes, including compatibility shims, new SDK methods, SDK exports, or plugin-facing channel/provider seams
-- auth/security boundary changes unless explicitly assigned
-- bugs needing live credentials that are unavailable
-- PRs with red CI unless you fix, rebase, push, and recheck them green
-- PRs you only reviewed locally but did not refresh/push/check live
-- fixes whose clean shape is a larger architecture move
-- speculative reports without reproducible/provable cause
-- UI/UX changes requiring product judgment
-
-## Sweep Loop
-
-1. Start clean:
-   - `git status -sb`
-   - `git pull --ff-only`
-   - verify branch is expected, usually `main`
-2. Build candidate clusters:
-   - `gitcrawl` open issues/PRs, neighbors, and search
-   - live `gh issue/pr view`
-   - include PRs linked from issues and duplicates
-3. For each cluster:
-   - read issue/PR body, comments, labels, linked refs, current source, adjacent tests
-   - suppress maintainer-owned queue noise unless it is the best fix path
-   - identify opener/author and preserve credit
-   - decide: `repair-existing-pr`, `create-new-pr`, `close-fixed-on-main`, `close-duplicate`, or `reject`
-4. Prove before patching:
-   - failing test, focused repro, log/source proof, or dependency contract proof
-   - if already fixed on `main`, prove with current source/test/commit and close kindly
-5. Patch:
-   - prefer existing PR when good and writable
-   - if unwritable or wrong shape, create own PR and preserve useful contributor credit
-   - if no PR exists, create one
-   - add regression test when it fits
-   - changelog for user-facing fixes; thank credited human reporter/contributor
-6. Review, refresh, and publish:
-   - rebase or otherwise refresh the PR branch on current `origin/main`
-   - resolve drift, including newly exposed CI failures, rather than counting the PR as ready
-   - left-test the rebased head with the smallest meaningful local/Testbox/live command that proves the bug
-   - run `$autoreview` until no accepted/actionable findings remain
-   - create/update PR with real body and proof fields
-   - push the exact reviewed head
-   - verify live GitHub CI is green for that pushed head; do not count pending, red, dirty, conflicting, or externally blocked PRs in the five
-7. Hygiene:
-   - close duplicates and fixed-on-main issues/PRs with proof as soon as you notice them during the sweep
-   - never mutate more than five associated items in one cluster without explicit confirmation
-   - comments must be kind, concrete, and include proof/PR/commit links
-8. Repeat until five landable PR URLs are ready.
-
-## PR Body Proof
-
-Use the repo PR template. Include these exact labels:
-
-```text
-Behavior addressed:
-Real environment tested:
-Exact steps or command run after this patch:
-Evidence after fix:
-Observed result after fix:
-What was not tested:
-```
-
-## Existing PR Rules
-
-- Review code path beyond the diff before trusting it.
-- If PR is good: rebase/refresh on current `main`, fix small issues, left-test, autoreview, push, and get CI green before counting it.
-- If PR is not good but has a useful idea: recreate locally, co-author when warranted, close original with thanks and explanation.
-- If PR is duplicate or fixed on `main`: comment proof, close.
-- If maintainer cannot push to contributor branch: create own branch/PR, preserve useful commits or credit.
-- If CI turns red after local proof, treat that as normal work: inspect the failing job, fix or reject, rerun, and only count the PR once green.
-
-## Output Ledger
-
-Maintain a running ledger:
-
-```text
-accepted:
-- PR URL:
-  source refs:

-# OpenClaw Mac Release
-
-Use with `$openclaw-release-maintainer`, `$openclaw-release-ci`, and `$one-password` when stable macOS assets, private mac preflight, notarization, appcast promotion, or mac release recovery is involved.
-
-## Credentials
-
-- Canonical ASC item: vault `Molty`, title `API Key - App Store Connect - Personal - Release`.
-- Fields: `private_key_p8`, `key_id`, `issuer_id`.
-- Current known good key id: `AKVLXW849T`.
-- Legacy mirror: vault `Private`, title `API Key - App Store Connect - Personal`; keep it synced for older refs.
-- Stale/revoked key symptom: `xcrun notarytool submit` fails with `HTTP status code: 401. Unauthenticated`.
-- Validate candidate ASC credentials with `xcrun notarytool history` before setting GitHub secrets.
-
-## 1Password
-
-- Use `$one-password`: all `op` work inside one persistent tmux session, no secret output.
-- Prefer `OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN` from `~/.profile` for Molty reads.
-- Do not assume `MOLTY_OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN` is alive; it has previously pointed at a deleted service account.
-- If a service token fails, run status-only checks: token present/length and `op whoami`; never print token values.
-- If desktop app auth is needed but Touch ID is unavailable, set `OP_BIOMETRIC_UNLOCK_ENABLED=false` for the manual `op account add --signin` path.
-
-## GitHub Secrets
-
-Target private repo environment: `openclaw/releases-private`, env `mac-release`.
-
-Set only after local notary auth validation:
-
-- `APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_P8`
-- `APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY_ID`
-- `APP_STORE_CONNECT_ISSUER_ID`
-
-Do not update these from mixed sources. All three ASC fields must come from the same 1Password item.
-
-## Workflow Shape
-
-- Public release branch may carry mac-only packaging fixes after the stable tag/npm are already live.
-- Use `source_ref=release/YYYY.M.D` for private mac preflight/validation when building that branch variation.
-- Keep `tag=vYYYY.M.D` pointing at the original stable release commit.
-- Real mac publish must reuse:
-  - a successful private mac preflight run for the same tag/source SHA
-  - a successful private mac validation run for the same tag/source SHA
-- If preflight source SHA differs from tag SHA, validation must also use the same `source_ref`; promotion rejects mismatched proof.
-
-## Notarization
-
-- OpenClaw uses `scripts/notarize-mac-artifact.sh`.
-- `xcrun notarytool submit` should use `--no-s3-acceleration`; accelerated upload can surface misleading 401s even when `notarytool history` succeeds.
-- If signing succeeds but notarization fails immediately with 401, check ASC key freshness first.
-- If notarization stays in progress for several minutes after key-file write, that is normal Apple wait time; do not edit blindly.

 - For unpublished targets, pack the candidate on the host, serve the `.tgz` over the harness HTTP server, and point the guest updater at that served package. Prefer `openclaw update --tag http://<host-ip>:<port>/openclaw-<version>.tgz --yes --json`; when channel persistence also matters, pass `--channel <stable|beta>` and set `OPENCLAW_UPDATE_PACKAGE_SPEC` to the same served URL in the guest update environment. The command under test must still be `openclaw update`, not direct npm.
 - For unpublished local-fix validation, remember the old baseline updater code still controls the first hop. A fix that lives only in the new updater code cannot change that already-running old process; the served candidate must either keep package/plugin metadata compatible with the baseline host or the baseline itself must include the updater fix.
 - For beta/stable verification, resolve the tag immediately before the run (`npm view openclaw@beta version dist.tarball` or `npm view openclaw@latest ...`). Tags can move while a long VM matrix is already running; restart the matrix when the intended prerelease appears after an earlier registry 404/tag-lag check.

 - Same-guest update verification should set the default model explicitly to `openai/gpt-5.4` before the agent turn and use a fresh explicit `--session-id` so old session model state does not leak into the check.
 - The aggregate npm-update wrapper must resolve the Linux VM with the same Ubuntu fallback policy as `parallels-linux-smoke.sh` before both fresh and update lanes. Treat any Ubuntu guest with major version `>= 24` as acceptable when the exact default VM is missing, preferring the closest version match. On Peter's current host today, missing `Ubuntu 24.04.3 ARM64` should fall back to `Ubuntu 25.10`.
 - On macOS same-guest update checks, restart the gateway after the npm upgrade before `gateway status` / `agent`; launchd can otherwise report a loaded service while the old process has exited and the fresh process is not RPC-ready yet.

-  - stale: assigned 6h+ ago; treat as ownership hint, not a hard block; continue only with that caveat
-- If assigned to requester plus others, mention co-assignees and continue.
-- If assignment event time is unavailable, say `assigned, time unknown`; treat as assigned, not stale.

-# OpenClaw Refactor Docs
-
-## Overview
-
-Use this skill when the user gives a target OpenClaw docs page and asks to
-rewrite, refactor, reorganize, split, shorten, or improve it.
-
-This skill builds on `openclaw-docs`: use that skill for style, page types,
-structure, examples, discoverability, and verification. This skill adds the
-rewrite workflow needed to avoid losing accurate behavior during a major docs
-refactor.
-
-## Inputs
-
-Required:
-
-- A target docs page path, such as `docs/plugins/codex-harness.md`.
-
-Optional:
-
-- Desired page type, such as topic page, guide, reference, or troubleshooting.
-- Specific goals, such as shorter main page, move details to reference pages, or
-  align with current CLI behavior.
-- Related source files, schemas, commands, tests, specs, or PRs.
-
-If the target page is missing or ambiguous, ask one concise question before
-editing. Otherwise, proceed.
-
-## Working Contract
-
-Refactor the target page to be more useful, concise, and comprehensive within
-its stated scope.
-
-Do not treat a rewrite as permission to discard behavior facts. Preserve,
-verify, move, or explicitly retire existing material. Incorrect docs are worse
-than verbose docs.
-
-Prefer this split:
-
-- Topic or guide pages cover the 80/20 path, decisions readers must make, safe
-  setup, smallest reliable verification, common failures, and links onward.
-- Reference pages cover exhaustive fields, defaults, enums, limits, precedence
-  rules, API contracts, narrow internals, and rare debugging details.
-- Troubleshooting pages start from observable symptoms and map to checks,
-  causes, and fixes.
-
-## Workflow
-
-### 1. Load the doc standard
-
-Read `../openclaw-docs/SKILL.md` first. Apply its page-type, style,
-examples, navigation, and verification guidance throughout the refactor.
-
-Run `pnpm docs:list` when available, then read only the target page and the
-likely entry points, references, or related pages needed for the refactor.
-
-### 2. Classify the page
-
-Before editing, decide the intended page type from `openclaw-docs`.
-
-If the current page mixes page types, choose the main page type and plan where
-the other material belongs:
-
-- Move exhaustive contracts to an existing or new reference page.
-- Move symptom-driven material to an existing or new troubleshooting page.
-- Move narrow setup workflows to a guide when they interrupt the main path.
-- Keep concise routing, decision, and safety details in the main page when
-  readers need them to complete the workflow.
-
-### 3. Preserve and audit existing facts
-
-Create a working inventory from the old page before rewriting. Include:
-
-- Config fields, flags, commands, slash commands, env vars, defaults, enums,
-  nullable values, and constraints.
-- Precedence rules, fallback behavior, caps, limits, rate limits, timeouts,
-  lifecycle states, queueing behavior, and compatibility rules.
-- Auth, permission, approval, sandbox, safety, privacy, and destructive-action
-  behavior.
-- Setup requirements, supported versions, dependencies, operating systems,
-  credentials, and account requirements.
-- Error messages, troubleshooting symptoms, diagnostics, and recovery steps.
-- Examples, expected output, command routing tables, and cross-links.
-
-For each fact, choose one outcome:
-
-- Keep it in the refactored target page.
-- Move it to a specific existing page.
-- Move it to a specific new page.
-- Delete it because current source proves it is obsolete or out of scope.
-
-Do not infer defaults, permissions, policy, timeout behavior, or safety posture
-from names or intent. Verify them.
-
-### 4. Find source of truth
-
-Use the nearest authoritative source for each behavior-sensitive claim:
-
-- Public schema, plugin manifest, generated config docs, or exported types for
-  config fields.
-- CLI implementation, slash-command handlers, help text, and command tests for
-  commands and flags.
-- Runtime source and tests for lifecycle, queueing, permission, fallback,
-  timeout, and provider behavior.
-- Protocol docs, SDK facades, and contract tests for APIs and plugin surfaces.
-- Existing docs only as secondary evidence unless the target is purely
-  conceptual.
-
-If a page promises a reference, compare its tables against the schema,
-manifest, CLI help, generated docs, or exported types. Missing public fields,
-defaults, precedence rules, caps, or side effects are correctness bugs.
-
-### 5. Plan moved material
-
-When moving detail out of the target page, record the destination before
-editing:
-
-- Existing page: name the page and section.
-- New page: choose the page type, slug, title, frontmatter summary,
-  `doc-schema-version: 1`, and `read_when` hints.
-- Target page: keep a short summary and link from the point where readers need
-  the deeper detail.
-
-Avoid duplicate truth. If the same contract appears in multiple places, choose
-one canonical page and link to it.
-
-### 6. Rewrite
-
-Rewrite in this order:
-
-1. Make the first screen answer what the reader can do and why this page exists.
-2. Put the recommended path before alternatives.
-3. Keep only decision-making and common operational detail in the main flow.
-4. Move exhaustive tables and rare details to the planned reference pages.
-5. Preserve concise routing tables when they help readers choose commands,
-   config paths, harnesses, plugins, providers, or references.
-6. Add troubleshooting from observable symptoms, not internal guesses.
-7. Link related concepts, guides, references, diagnostics, and adjacent tools.
-
-Add `doc-schema-version: 1` to the YAML frontmatter of every docs page that the
-refactor migrates, creates, or materially rewrites. Apply it only to docs page
-files, not `docs.json`, glossary JSON, or other non-page metadata. If a
-migrated page is generated, update the generator so regeneration preserves the
-marker instead of hand-editing generated output.
-
-Do not leave placeholders such as "TODO", "TBD", or "see docs" unless the user
-explicitly asks for a draft.
-
-### 7. Compare old and new
-
-After editing, compare the old and new page:
-
-- Confirm all behavior-sensitive facts were kept, moved, or intentionally
-  deleted with source-backed reason.
-- Check that the main page still covers the 80/20 scenario end to end.
-- Check that reference pages remain exhaustive for the scope they claim.
-- Check that links from the target page reach moved details.
-- Check that headings are stable, searchable, and action-oriented.
-
-If the refactor deliberately removes relevant material, say where it went or why
-it was removed in the final report.
-
-### 8. Verify
-
-Run the smallest reliable docs checks for the touched surface:
-
-- `pnpm docs:list`
-- `git diff --check -- <touched-files>`
-- Targeted `pnpm exec oxfmt --check --threads=1 <touched-files>`
-- `pnpm docs:check-mdx`
-- `pnpm docs:check-links`
-- `pnpm docs:check-i18n-glossary` when link text, navigation, labels, or glossary
-  surfaces changed
-- Generated-doc checks when schemas, generated config docs, API docs, or
-  generated baselines are touched
-
-Run commands and examples from the page whenever feasible. If you cannot verify
-a behavior-sensitive claim, either remove the claim, mark the uncertainty in the
-work-in-progress report, or ask for the missing source.
-
-## Final Report
-
-Report:
-
-- What changed in the target page.
-- What details moved and their destination pages.
-- What source-of-truth checks backed behavior-sensitive claims.
-- What validation ran and what failed for unrelated reasons.
-
-Do not include a long rewrite diary. Lead with remaining risks only if there are
-any.

-# OpenClaw Release CI
-
-Use this with `$openclaw-release-maintainer` and `$openclaw-testing` when a release candidate needs full validation, install/update proof, live provider checks, or CI recovery.
-
-## Guardrails
-
-- No version bump, tag, npm publish, GitHub release, or release promotion without explicit operator approval.
-- Validate provider secrets before dispatching expensive full release matrices.
-- Do not set GitHub secrets from unvalidated 1Password candidates. If a candidate returns 401/403, leave the existing secret alone and report the exact missing provider.
-- Use `$one-password` for secret reads/writes: one persistent tmux session, targeted items only, no secret output.
-- Watch one parent run plus compact child summaries. Avoid broad `gh run view` polling loops; REST quota is easy to burn.
-- Fetch logs only for failed or currently-blocking jobs. If quota is low, stop polling and wait for reset.
-- Treat live-provider flakes separately from code failures: prove key validity, provider HTTP status, retry evidence, and exact failing lane before editing code.
-
-## Preflight
-
-Before full release validation:
-
-```bash
-node .agents/skills/openclaw-release-ci/scripts/verify-provider-secrets.mjs --required openai,anthropic,fireworks

-git status --short --branch
-git rev-parse HEAD
-```
-
-1Password service-account values are the first source for release provider
-preflight. Inject those exact targeted keys first, then run the verifier; use
-ambient env only when it was already intentionally injected for this release.
-The script prints only provider status and HTTP class, never tokens.

-Prefer the trusted workflow on `main`, target the exact release SHA:
-
-```bash
-gh workflow run full-release-validation.yml \
-  --repo openclaw/openclaw \
-  --ref main \
-  -f ref=<release-sha> \
-  -f provider=openai \
-  -f mode=both \
-  -f release_profile=full \
-  -f rerun_group=all
-```
-
-Use `release_profile=stable` unless the operator explicitly asks for the broad advisory provider/media matrix. Use narrow `rerun_group` after focused fixes.
-
-## Watch
-
-Use the summary helper instead of repeated raw polling:
-
-```bash
-node .agents/skills/openclaw-release-ci/scripts/release-ci-summary.mjs <full-release-run-id>
-```
-
-Then watch only when useful:
-
-```bash
-gh run watch <full-release-run-id> --repo openclaw/openclaw --exit-status
-```
-
-Stop watchers before ending the turn or switching strategy.
-
-## Failure Triage
-
-1. Confirm parent SHA and child run IDs.
-2. List failed jobs only:
-   ```bash
-   gh run view <child-run-id> --repo openclaw/openclaw --json jobs \
-     --jq '.jobs[] | select(.conclusion=="failure" or .conclusion=="timed_out" or .conclusion=="cancelled") | [.databaseId,.name,.conclusion,.url] | @tsv'
-   ```
-3. Fetch one failed job log. If rate-limited, note reset time and avoid more REST calls.
-4. For secret-looking failures, validate the provider endpoint from the same secret source before editing code.
-5. For live-cache failures, inspect whether it is missing/invalid key, empty text, provider refusal, timeout, or baseline miss. Do not weaken release gates without clear provider evidence.
-6. Fix narrowly, run local/changed proof, commit, push, rerun the smallest matching group.
-
-## Evidence
-
-Record:
-
-- release SHA
-- full parent run URL
-- child run IDs and conclusions: CI, Release Checks, Plugin Prerelease, NPM Telegram
-- targeted local proof commands
-- provider-secret preflight result
-- known gaps or unrelated failures

-# Release CI Notes
-
-## What Went Wrong
-
-- Full validation was started before all provider keys were proven valid.
-- GitHub secret presence was confused with key validity.
-- Repeated `gh run view` and log fetches exhausted REST quota.
-- Parent run state was less useful than child run evidence.
-- Live-cache failures needed structured classification: invalid key, empty provider output, timeout, or real cache regression.
-- Background watchers accumulated and made interruption recovery harder.
-
-## Better Defaults
-
-- Run provider-secret preflight first. Require real `/models` or equivalent endpoint checks for release-blocking providers.
-- Keep one watcher open. Use child summaries every few minutes, not every few seconds.
-- Fetch failed-job logs only after a job reaches a terminal failing state.
-- Prefer narrow `rerun_group` recovery after a focused fix.
-- Leave bad secrets unset. A 401 candidate from 1Password should not overwrite GitHub.
-- Make the final release evidence note durable: parent URL, child run URLs, SHA, command proof, and gaps.
-
-## Secret Handling Pattern
-
-- Use `$one-password`; never run broad env dumps.
-- Search exact item titles or known ids.
-- Validate candidates without printing values.
-- Set GitHub secrets only after endpoint validation succeeds.
-- After setting, verify metadata with `gh secret list`, not value output.
-
-## Live Cache Pattern
-
-- Empty text with token usage is a provider/output issue until proven otherwise.
-- Retry lane-level mismatches once with a fresh session id.
-- Keep cache baselines strict, but log enough structured usage to distinguish cache miss from response mismatch.
-- If a provider key validates locally but fails in Actions, inspect whether the workflow reads the expected secret name.
-
-## Quota-Safe GitHub Pattern
-
-- Check `gh api rate_limit --jq '.resources.core'` before log-heavy work.
-- Use one child-run listing call, then inspect failed jobs only.
-- If remaining quota is low, pause until reset; do not keep polling.
-- Prefer GraphQL only for metadata when REST is exhausted; logs still need REST.

-description: Use when reviewing, reproducing, or proving OpenClaw Telegram behavior with a real Telegram user on Crabbox, including PR review workflows that need an agent-controlled Telegram Desktop recording, TDLib user-driver commands, Convex-leased credentials, WebVNC observation, and motion-trimmed artifacts.

-# Telegram Crabbox E2E Proof
-
-Use this for Telegram PR review or bug reproduction when bot-to-bot proof is
-not enough. The goal is to let the agent keep a real Telegram user session open
-until it is satisfied, then attach visual proof.
-
-Do not use personal accounts. Do not add credentials to the repo, prompt, or
-artifact bundle. The runner leases the shared burner account from Convex.
-
-## Start
-
-Run from the OpenClaw repo and branch under test:
-
-```bash
-proof_cmd="${OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_USER_PROOF_CMD:-openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox-proof}"
-"$proof_cmd" start \
-  --tdlib-url http://artifacts.openclaw.ai/tdlib-v1.8.0-linux-x64.tgz \
-  --output-dir .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-review
-```
-
-This starts one held session:
-
-- leases the exclusive `telegram-user` Convex credential
-- restores TDLib and Telegram Desktop with the same user account
-- starts a mock OpenClaw Telegram SUT from the current checkout
-- selects the configured Telegram chat in the visible Linux desktop
-- starts a 24fps desktop recording
-- writes `.artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-review/session.json`
-
-Keep the session alive while investigating. It is valid for the agent to test
-for minutes, run several commands, use WebVNC, inspect transcripts, and only
-finish once the behavior is understood.
-
-For deterministic visual repros, put the exact mock-model reply in a file and
-pass it to `start`:
-
-```bash
-proof_cmd="${OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_USER_PROOF_CMD:-openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox-proof}"
-"$proof_cmd" start \
-  --tdlib-url http://artifacts.openclaw.ai/tdlib-v1.8.0-linux-x64.tgz \
-  --mock-response-file .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/reply.txt \
-  --output-dir .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-review
-```
-
-The runner defaults to `--class standard`, `--record-fps 24`,
-`--preview-fps 24`, and `--preview-width 1920`. Keep those defaults unless the
-proof needs something else.
-
-## While Testing
-
-For visual proof, first send or identify a bottom marker message, then open the
-group/topic directly by message id:
-
-```bash
-proof_cmd="${OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_USER_PROOF_CMD:-openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox-proof}"
-"$proof_cmd" view \
-  --session .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-review/session.json \
-  --message-id <message-id>
-```
-
-This uses Telegram Desktop directly with `tg://privatepost`, not `xdg-open`.
-It also resizes Telegram to `650x1000` at the tested desktop position so
-the crop can isolate the chat pane even if Telegram keeps a split/sidebar
-layout. Do not press Escape after this; Escape can close the selected chat.
-
-Bottom behavior matters:
-
-- deep-linking to the newest message keeps Telegram pinned to the bottom, so
-  later messages appear live in the recording
-- deep-linking to an older message does not auto-scroll to new arrivals; link
-  again to the newest/final marker instead of clicking the down-arrow
-- the cropped GIF intentionally uses the chat pane, not the whole desktop or
-  whole Telegram window
-
-Send as the real Telegram user:
-
-```bash
-proof_cmd="${OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_USER_PROOF_CMD:-openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox-proof}"
-"$proof_cmd" send \
-  --session .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-review/session.json \
-  --text /status
-```
-
-For slash commands, omit the bot username; the runner targets the SUT bot.
-
-Run arbitrary commands on the Crabbox:
-
-```bash
-proof_cmd="${OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_USER_PROOF_CMD:-openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox-proof}"
-"$proof_cmd" run \
-  --session .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-review/session.json \
-  -- bash -lc 'source /tmp/openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox/env.sh && python3 /tmp/openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox/user-driver.py transcript --limit 20 --json'
-```
-
-Useful remote user-driver commands:
-
-```bash
-source /tmp/openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox/env.sh
-python3 /tmp/openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox/user-driver.py status --json
-python3 /tmp/openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox/user-driver.py chats --json
-python3 /tmp/openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox/user-driver.py transcript --limit 20 --json
-python3 /tmp/openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox/user-driver.py send --text '/status@{sut}'
-python3 /tmp/openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox/user-driver.py probe --text '@{sut} Reply exactly: USER-E2E-{run}' --expect USER-E2E-
-```
-
-Capture the current desktop without ending the session:
-
-```bash
-proof_cmd="${OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_USER_PROOF_CMD:-openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox-proof}"
-"$proof_cmd" screenshot \
-  --session .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-review/session.json
-```
-
-Check lease state and get the WebVNC command:
-
-```bash
-proof_cmd="${OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_USER_PROOF_CMD:-openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox-proof}"
-"$proof_cmd" status \
-  --session .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-review/session.json
-```
-
-## Finish
-
-Always finish or explicitly keep the box:
-
-```bash
-proof_cmd="${OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_USER_PROOF_CMD:-openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox-proof}"
-"$proof_cmd" finish \
-  --session .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-review/session.json \
-  --preview-crop telegram-window
-```
-
-`finish` stops recording, creates motion-trimmed MP4/GIF artifacts, captures a
-final screenshot and logs, releases the Convex credential, stops the local SUT,
-and stops the Crabbox lease. `--preview-crop telegram-window` also creates a
-fixed-geometry GIF from the tested Telegram proof window for clean side-by-side
-PR tables; the full desktop video/GIF remains in the artifact directory. Pass
-`--keep-box` only when a human needs to continue VNC debugging after the
-credential is released.
-
-After any failure or interruption, verify cleanup:
-
-```bash
-crabbox list --provider aws
-```
-
-If a session file exists and the credential may still be leased, run `finish`
-with that session file before retrying.
-
-## Attach Proof
-
-Attach only the useful visual artifact to the PR unless logs are needed. The
-runner is GIF-only by default:
-
-```bash
-proof_cmd="${OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_USER_PROOF_CMD:-openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox-proof}"
-"$proof_cmd" publish \
-  --session .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-review/session.json \
-  --pr <pr-number> \
-  --summary 'Telegram real-user Crabbox session motion GIF'
-```
-
-This copies only the useful GIF into a temporary publish bundle and comments
-that GIF. If `finish --preview-crop telegram-window` produced a cropped GIF,
-publish uses that; otherwise it uses `telegram-user-crabbox-session-motion.gif`.
-Use `--full-artifacts` only when the PR needs logs or JSON output. Never publish
-credential payloads, local env files, TDLib databases, Telegram Desktop
-profiles, or raw session archives.
-
-For before/after proof, run one session on `main` and one on the PR head, then
-publish only the intended GIFs from a clean bundle:
-
-```bash
-mkdir -p .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-123/comparison
-cp <main-output>/telegram-user-crabbox-session-motion-telegram-window.gif \
-  .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-123/comparison/main-before.gif
-cp <pr-output>/telegram-user-crabbox-session-motion-telegram-window.gif \
-  .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-123/comparison/pr-after.gif
-crabbox artifacts publish \
-  --repo openclaw/openclaw \
-  --pr 123 \
-  --dir .artifacts/qa-e2e/telegram-user-crabbox/pr-123/comparison \
-  --summary 'Telegram before/after proof' \
-  --no-comment
-```
-
-Then post a concise markdown table with those two URLs. Do not publish working
-directories that contain screenshots, raw videos, logs, session JSON, or crop
-experiments unless those artifacts are explicitly needed.
-
-## Quick Smoke
-
-For a fast one-shot check, use:
-
-```bash
-proof_cmd="${OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_USER_PROOF_CMD:-openclaw-telegram-user-crabbox-proof}"
-"$proof_cmd" --text /status
-```
-
-This is a start/send/finish shortcut. Prefer the held session for PR review,
-issue reproduction, or any task where the agent may need several attempts.

-# Mantis Telegram Desktop Proof Agent
-
-You are Mantis running native Telegram Desktop visual proof for an OpenClaw PR.
-
-Goal: inspect the pull request, decide whether it has an honest
-Telegram-visible before/after behavior, then either run native Telegram Desktop
-proof or leave a no-visual-proof manifest for the workflow to publish.
-
-Hard limits:
-
-- Do not post GitHub comments or reviews. The workflow publishes the manifest.
-- Do not commit, push, label, merge, or edit PR metadata.
-- Do not print secrets, credential payloads, Telegram profile data, TDLib data,
-  or raw session archives.
-- Do not use fixed `/status` proof unless it genuinely proves the PR.
-- Do not finish with tiny, cropped-wrong, off-bottom, or sidebar-heavy GIFs.
-- Do not invent a generic proof. The proof must match the PR behavior.
-- Do not force GIFs for internal-only, workflow-only, test-only, docs-only, or
-  otherwise non-visual PRs. A no-visual-proof manifest is a successful workflow
-  outcome when GIFs would be misleading, but it is not proof that the PR passed.
-- Do not skip Telegram-visible PRs just because the proof needs a specific
-  message, mock response, media attachment, command, button, reaction, stop
-  timing, approval prompt, or progress/final delivery sequence. First write a
-  concrete proof plan and try the standard harness path.
-- Keep public-facing manifest summaries short and user-domain. Do not mention
-  harness internals, mock-provider limits, secret/trust boundaries, local paths,
-  transcript seeding, or workflow implementation details in the summary.
-
-Inputs are provided as environment variables:
-
-- `MANTIS_PR_NUMBER`
-- `BASELINE_REF`
-- `BASELINE_SHA`
-- `CANDIDATE_REF`
-- `CANDIDATE_SHA`
-- `MANTIS_CANDIDATE_TRUST`
-- `MANTIS_OUTPUT_DIR`
-- `MANTIS_INSTRUCTIONS`
-- `CRABBOX_PROVIDER`
-- `OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_USER_PROOF_CMD`
-- optional `CRABBOX_LEASE_ID`
-
-Required workflow:
-
-1. Read `.agents/skills/telegram-crabbox-e2e-proof/SKILL.md`.
-2. Inspect the PR with `gh pr view "$MANTIS_PR_NUMBER"` and
-   `gh pr diff "$MANTIS_PR_NUMBER"`.
-3. Decide whether the PR has a visibly reproducible Telegram Desktop
-   before/after. Treat these as visible until proven otherwise: message text
-   formatting/content, progress drafts, native drafts, final delivery, media or
-   document delivery, inline buttons, approval prompts, stop/abort behavior,
-   reactions/status indicators, guest/inline responses, TTS/voice/audio
-   delivery, and routing changes whose result is visible in the chat. For those
-   PRs, define the exact Telegram stimulus and expected main/PR visual delta
-   before deciding to skip.
-
-   If the PR does not have a Telegram-visible before/after, write
-   `${MANTIS_OUTPUT_DIR}/mantis-evidence.json` with `comparison.pass: true`, no
-   artifacts, and a summary that starts with
-   `Mantis did not generate before/after GIFs because`. Include a short
-   public reason, such as `the PR changes internal session bookkeeping rather
-than Telegram-visible behavior`. Use this manifest shape and do not create
-   worktrees or start Crabbox for this case:
-
-   ```json
-   {
-     "schemaVersion": 1,
-     "id": "telegram-desktop-proof",
-     "title": "Mantis Telegram Desktop Proof",
-     "summary": "Mantis did not generate before/after GIFs because <reason>.",
-     "scenario": "telegram-desktop-proof",
-     "comparison": {
-       "baseline": {
-         "ref": "<BASELINE_REF>",
-         "sha": "<BASELINE_SHA>",
-         "expected": "no visible Telegram Desktop delta",
-         "status": "skipped"
-       },
-       "candidate": {
-         "ref": "<CANDIDATE_REF>",
-         "sha": "<CANDIDATE_SHA>",
-         "expected": "no visible Telegram Desktop delta",
-         "status": "skipped",
-         "fixed": true
-       },
-       "pass": true
-     },
-     "artifacts": []
-   }
-   ```
-
-   If the PR appears visual but proof is blocked by Telegram Desktop session
-   state, authorization, credentials, Crabbox, missing Telegram client support,
-   unavailable media/provider setup, or another capture-infrastructure issue,
-   do not describe it as a no-visual PR. Write a manifest with
-   `comparison.pass: false`, skipped lanes, no artifacts, and a summary that
-   starts with `Mantis could not capture Telegram Desktop proof because`. The
-   publisher will keep that out of PR comments so the failure stays in the
-   workflow logs and artifacts.
-
-4. Decide what Telegram message, mock model response, command, callback, button,
-   media, or sequence best proves the PR. Use `MANTIS_INSTRUCTIONS` as extra
-   maintainer guidance, not as a replacement for reading the PR.
-5. Create detached worktrees under
-   `.artifacts/qa-e2e/mantis/telegram-desktop-proof-worktrees/baseline` and
-   `.artifacts/qa-e2e/mantis/telegram-desktop-proof-worktrees/candidate`, then
-   install and build each worktree with the repo's normal `pnpm` commands.
-   If `MANTIS_CANDIDATE_TRUST` is `fork-pr-head`, treat the
-   candidate worktree as untrusted fork code: do not pass GitHub, OpenAI,
-   Crabbox, Convex, or other workflow secrets into candidate install, build, or
-   runtime commands. The candidate SUT may receive only the proof runner's
-   short-lived Telegram bot token, generated local config/state paths, and mock
-   model key needed for this isolated proof.
-6. In each worktree, run the real-user Telegram Crabbox proof flow from the
-   skill with `$OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_USER_PROOF_CMD`; do not run
-   `pnpm qa:telegram-user:crabbox` directly. The proof command comes from the
-   trusted workflow checkout while the current directory controls which
-   baseline or candidate OpenClaw build is tested. Use
-   `$OPENCLAW_TELEGRAM_USER_DRIVER_SCRIPT`, the workflow-provided `crabbox`
-   binary, and the workflow-provided local `ffmpeg`/`ffprobe`; do not generate,
-   install, or patch replacement proof tooling during the run. Use the same
-   proof idea for baseline and candidate. Let `start` return or fail on its
-   own; do not kill it while Crabbox is still waiting for bootstrap. Use a long
-   command timeout for `start`, `send`, `view`, and `finish`. You may iterate
-   and rerun if the visual result is not convincing.
-7. Open Telegram Desktop directly to the newest relevant message with the
-   runner `view` command before finishing each recording. Keep the chat scrolled
-   to the bottom so new proof messages appear in-frame.
-8. Finish each session with `--preview-crop telegram-window`.
-9. Build `${MANTIS_OUTPUT_DIR}/mantis-evidence.json` with:
-
-   ```bash
-   node scripts/mantis/build-telegram-desktop-proof-evidence.mjs \
-     --output-dir "$MANTIS_OUTPUT_DIR" \
-     --baseline-repo-root <baseline-worktree> \
-     --baseline-output-dir <baseline-session-output-dir> \
-     --baseline-ref "$BASELINE_REF" \
-     --baseline-sha "$BASELINE_SHA" \
-     --candidate-repo-root <candidate-worktree> \
-     --candidate-output-dir <candidate-session-output-dir> \
-     --candidate-ref "$CANDIDATE_REF" \
-     --candidate-sha "$CANDIDATE_SHA" \
-     --scenario-label telegram-desktop-proof
-   ```
-
-Visual acceptance:
-
-- The GIFs show native Telegram Desktop, not transcript HTML.
-- Telegram is in single-chat proof view with no left chat list or right info
-  pane.
-- The proof behavior is visible without reading logs.
-- Main and PR GIFs are comparable side by side.
-- The final relevant message or button is visible near the bottom.
-- If one run fails because the PR genuinely changes behavior, still finish the
-  session and produce the manifest if useful visual artifacts exist.
-
-Expected final state:
-
-- `${MANTIS_OUTPUT_DIR}/mantis-evidence.json` exists.
-- Visual proof manifests contain paired `motionPreview` artifacts labeled
-  `Main` and `This PR`.
-- No-visual-proof manifests contain no artifacts and have `comparison.pass:
-true`.
-- Capture-infrastructure failure manifests contain no artifacts and have
-  `comparison.pass: false`.
-- The worktree can be dirty only under `.artifacts/`.

 # AGENTS.MD
 
 Telegraph style. Root rules only. Read scoped `AGENTS.md` before subtree work.
-Skills own workflows; root owns hard policy and routing.
 
 ## Start
 
 - Repo: `https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw`
 - Replies: repo-root refs only: `extensions/telegram/src/index.ts:80`. No absolute paths, no `~/`.
-- Docs/user-visible work: `pnpm docs:list`, then read relevant docs only.
-- Fix/triage answers need source, tests, current/shipped behavior, and dependency contract proof.
-- Dependency-backed behavior: read upstream docs/source/types first. No API/default/error/timing guesses.
-- Live-verify when feasible. Never print secrets.
+- Run docs list first: `pnpm docs:list` if available; read relevant docs only.
+- High-confidence answers only when fixing/triaging: verify source, tests, shipped/current behavior, and dependency contracts before deciding.
+- Dependency-backed behavior: read upstream dependency docs/source/types first. Do not assume APIs, defaults, errors, timing, or runtime behavior.
+- Live-verify when feasible. Check env/`~/.profile` for keys before assuming live tests are blocked; keep secret output redacted.
 - Missing deps: `pnpm install`, retry once, then report first actionable error.
 - CODEOWNERS: maint/refactor/tests ok. Larger behavior/product/security/ownership: owner ask/review.
-- Product/docs/UI/changelog wording: "plugin/plugins"; `extensions/` is internal.
+- Wording: product/docs/UI/changelog say "plugin/plugins"; `extensions/` is internal.
 - New channel/plugin/app/doc surface: update `.github/labeler.yml` + GH labels.
-- New `AGENTS.md`: add sibling `CLAUDE.md` symlink; edit `AGENTS.md` only.
+- New `AGENTS.md`: add sibling `CLAUDE.md` symlink.
 
 ## Map
 
 - Core TS: `src/`, `ui/`, `packages/`; plugins: `extensions/`; SDK: `src/plugin-sdk/*`; channels: `src/channels/*`; loader: `src/plugins/*`; protocol: `src/gateway/protocol/*`; docs/apps: `docs/`, `apps/`.
 - Installers: sibling `../openclaw.ai`.
-- Scoped guides: `extensions/`, `src/{plugin-sdk,channels,plugins,gateway,gateway/protocol,agents}/`, `test/helpers*/`, `docs/`, `ui/`, `scripts/`.
+- Scoped guides exist in: `extensions/`, `src/{plugin-sdk,channels,plugins,gateway,gateway/protocol,agents}/`, `test/helpers*/`, `docs/`, `ui/`, `scripts/`.
 
 ## Architecture
 
-- Core stays plugin-agnostic. No bundled ids/defaults/policy in core when manifest/registry/capability contracts work.
-- Plugins cross into core only via `openclaw/plugin-sdk/*`, manifest metadata, injected runtime helpers, documented barrels (`api.ts`, `runtime-api.ts`).
-- Plugin prod code: no core `src/**`, `src/plugin-sdk-internal/**`, other plugin `src/**`, or relative outside package.
-- Core/tests: no deep plugin internals (`extensions/*/src/**`, `onboard.js`). Use public barrels, SDK facade, generic contracts.
-- Owner boundary: owner-specific repair/detection/onboarding/auth/defaults/provider behavior lives in owner plugin. Shared/core gets generic seams only.
-- Dependency ownership follows runtime ownership: plugin-only deps stay plugin-local; root deps only for core imports or intentionally internalized bundled plugin runtime.
-- Internal bundled plugins ship in core dist; bundled-only facade loader ok only for them.
-- External official plugins own package/deps and are excluded from core dist; core uses registry-aware `facade-runtime` or generic contracts.
-- Externalizing a bundled plugin: update package excludes, official catalogs, docs, tests, and prove core runtime paths resolve installed plugin roots before root-dep removal.
-- Legacy config repair belongs in `openclaw doctor --fix`, not startup/load-time core migrations. Runtime paths use canonical contracts.
-- Fix shape: default to clean bounded refactor, not smallest patch. Move ownership to right boundary; delete stale abstractions, duplicate policy, dead branches, wrappers, fallback stacks.
-- Lean code is a goal. No internal shims, aliases, legacy names, broad fallbacks, or defensive branches just to reduce diff or handle unrealistic edge cases.
-- Handle real production states, shipped upgrade paths, security boundaries, and dependency contracts. Public/hostile/observed malformed input gets care; hypothetical malformed input does not.
-- Public plugin SDK/API is the compat exception. New API first, old path only via named compat/deprecation metadata, docs, warnings when useful, tests for old+new, planned removal.
-- Migrate internal/bundled callers to modern API in the same change. Do not let internal compat become permanent architecture.
-- Channels are implementation under `src/channels/**`; plugin authors get SDK seams. Providers own auth/catalog/runtime hooks; core owns generic loop.
-- Hot paths should carry prepared facts forward: provider id, model ref, channel id, target, capability family, attachment class. Do not rediscover with broad plugin/provider/channel/capability loaders.
-- Do not fix repeated request-time discovery with scattered caches. Move the canonical fact earlier; reuse prepared runtime objects; delete duplicate lookup branches.
-- Inline code comments: brief notes for tricky, bug-prone, or previously buggy logic.
+- Core stays extension-agnostic. No bundled ids in core when manifest/registry/capability contracts work.
+- Extensions cross into core only via `openclaw/plugin-sdk/*`, manifest metadata, injected runtime helpers, documented barrels (`api.ts`, `runtime-api.ts`).
+- Extension prod code: no core `src/**`, `src/plugin-sdk-internal/**`, other extension `src/**`, or relative outside package.
+- Core/tests: no deep plugin internals (`extensions/*/src/**`, `onboard.js`). Use `api.ts`, SDK facade, generic contracts.
+- Extension-owned behavior stays extension-owned: repair, detection, onboarding, auth/provider defaults, provider tools/settings.
+- Owner boundary: fix owner-specific behavior in the owner module. Shared/core gets generic seams only; no owner ids, dependency strings, defaults, migrations, or recovery policy. If a bug names an extension or its dependency, start in that extension and add a generic core seam only when multiple owners need it.
+- Dependency ownership follows runtime ownership: extension-only deps stay plugin-local; root deps only for core imports or intentionally internalized bundled plugin runtime.
+- Legacy config repair: doctor/fix paths, not startup/load-time core migrations.
+- No legacy compatibility in core/runtime paths. When old config/store shapes need support, add an `openclaw doctor --fix` rewrite/repair rule with tests and keep runtime code on the canonical contract.
+- Core test asserting extension-specific behavior: move to owner extension or generic contract test.
+- New seams: backwards-compatible, documented, versioned. Third-party plugins exist.
+- Channels: `src/channels/**` is implementation; plugin authors get SDK seams.
+- Providers: core owns generic loop; provider plugins own auth/catalog/runtime hooks.
+- Request-time runtime resolution: when a path already knows the provider id, model ref, channel id, outbound target, capability family, or attachment class, carry that as a prepared runtime fact instead of rediscovering it later.
+- Prepared runtime facts should be small typed values produced once near startup, reply dispatch, model selection, tool planning, or channel resolution, then passed through context to consumers. Prefer `AgentRuntimePlan`, `ProviderRuntimePluginHandle`, scoped model/catalog helpers, active/runtime registries, manifest/public-artifact lookups, single-provider resolvers, and lazy registry construction.
+- Avoid broad request-time rediscovery: hot reply/tool/outbound/media paths should not call broad plugin/provider/channel/capability loaders such as `loadOpenClawPlugins`, `resolveProviderPluginsForHooks`, `resolvePluginCapabilityProviders`, `resolvePluginDiscoveryProvidersRuntime`, `getChannelPlugin`, or broad model/tool/media registry builders just to answer a question the caller already knows. Do not build multimodal/provider registries for document-only or otherwise non-participating paths.
+- Compatibility fallbacks are allowed only for startup/setup/admin/standalone/legacy callers that genuinely lack prepared facts. Keep them explicit, tested, and outside migrated hot reply/tool/outbound paths.
+- Do not fix repeated request-time discovery by adding scattered cache layers. Move the canonical fact earlier, reuse the existing prepared-runtime object, and delete duplicate lookup branches when the last migrated caller stops needing them.
 - Gateway protocol changes: additive first; incompatible needs versioning/docs/client follow-through.
-- Protocol version bumps: explicit owner confirmation only; never automatic/generated.
-- Config contract: exported types, schema/help, metadata, baselines, docs aligned. Retired public keys stay retired; compat in raw migration/doctor only.
+- Config contract: exported types, schema/help, metadata, baselines, docs aligned. Retired public keys stay retired; compat in raw migration/doctor.
+- Direction: manifest-first control plane; targeted runtime loaders; no hidden contract bypasses; broad mutable registries transitional.
 - Prompt cache: deterministic ordering for maps/sets/registries/plugin lists/files/network results before model/tool payloads. Preserve old transcript bytes when possible.
-- Agent tool schema cleanup: remove stale args cleanly; no hidden compat for model-facing params just to avoid churn.
 
 ## Commands
 
-- Runtime: Node 22.19+; Node 24 recommended. Keep Node + Bun paths working.
-- Package manager/runtime: repo defaults only. No swaps without approval.
+- Runtime: Node 22+. Keep Node + Bun paths working.
 - Install: `pnpm install` (keep Bun lock/patches aligned if touched).
-- Sharp/Homebrew libvips source-build fail: `SHARP_IGNORE_GLOBAL_LIBVIPS=1 pnpm install`.
 - CLI: `pnpm openclaw ...` or `pnpm dev`; build: `pnpm build`.
-- Tests in a normal source checkout: `pnpm test <path-or-filter> [vitest args...]`, `pnpm test:changed`, `pnpm test:serial`, `pnpm test:coverage`; never raw `vitest`.
-- Tests in a Codex worktree or linked/sparse checkout: avoid direct local `pnpm test*`; use `node scripts/run-vitest.mjs <path-or-filter>` for tiny explicit-file proof, or Crabbox/Testbox for anything broader.
-- Checks in a normal source checkout: `pnpm check:changed`; lanes: `pnpm changed:lanes --json`; staged: `pnpm check:changed --staged`; full: `pnpm check`.
-- Checks in a Codex worktree or linked/sparse checkout: avoid direct local `pnpm check*`; use `node scripts/crabbox-wrapper.mjs run ... --shell -- "pnpm check:changed"` so pnpm runs inside Testbox, not locally.
+- Smart gate: `pnpm check:changed`; explain `pnpm changed:lanes --json`; staged preview `pnpm check:changed --staged`.
+- Sparse worktrees: `pnpm check:changed` is sparse-safe and may skip sparse-missing typecheck projects; do not expand sparse checkout just to satisfy changed-gate tsgo. Direct `pnpm tsgo*` remains strict; use a fuller worktree when you need direct typecheck proof.
+- Prod sweep: `pnpm check`; tests: `pnpm test`, `pnpm test:changed`, `pnpm test:serial`, `pnpm test:coverage`.
 - Extension tests: `pnpm test:extensions`, `pnpm test extensions`, `pnpm test extensions/<id>`.
-- Typecheck: `tsgo` lanes only (`pnpm tsgo*`, `pnpm check:test-types`); never add `tsc --noEmit`, `typecheck`, `check:types`.
-- Formatting: `oxfmt`, not Prettier. Use repo wrappers (`pnpm format:*`, `pnpm lint:*`, `scripts/run-oxlint.mjs`).
-- Build before push when build output, packaging, lazy/module boundaries, dynamic imports, or published surfaces can change.
+- Targeted tests: `pnpm test <path-or-filter> [vitest args...]`; never raw `vitest`.
+- Vitest flags only; no Jest flags like `--runInBand`. For serial runs use `pnpm test:serial` or `OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 pnpm test ...`.
+- Typecheck: `tsgo` lanes only (`pnpm tsgo*`, `pnpm check:test-types`); do not add `tsc --noEmit`, `typecheck`, `check:types`.
+- Formatting: use `oxfmt`, not Prettier. Prefer `pnpm format:check` / `pnpm format`; for targeted files use `pnpm exec oxfmt --check --threads=1 <files...>` or `pnpm exec oxfmt --write --threads=1 <files...>`.
+- Linting: use repo wrappers (`pnpm lint:*`, `scripts/run-oxlint.mjs`); do not invoke generic JS formatters/lints unless a repo script uses them.
+- Heavy checks: `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK=1`, mode `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK_MODE=throttled|full`; CI/shared use `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK=0`.
+- Crabbox: preferred live scenario runner when available. It has Linux, Windows, and macOS workers/targets; pick the OS that matches the bug. If unavailable, use the local system, Docker, Parallels, or CI live lane that proves the same behavior.
+- Blacksmith/Testbox: use when the validation needs the remote environment, broad/shared suite capacity, cross-OS/package/Docker/E2E/live proof, or another end-to-end setup that is meaningfully better off-host. Broad fan-out commands such as `pnpm check`, full `pnpm test`, Docker/E2E/live/package/build gates, and wide changed gates belong in Testbox by default. Do not start those broad gates locally unless the user explicitly asks for local proof or sets `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK_MODE=throttled|full`.
+- Local validation: targeted edit loops stay local, such as `pnpm test <specific-file>`, narrow `pnpm test:changed` selections, targeted formatter checks, and small lint/type probes. If a local command expands beyond targeted proof, stop it and move the broad gate to Testbox.
+- Testbox use: run from repo root, pre-warm early with `blacksmith testbox warmup ci-check-testbox.yml --ref main --idle-timeout 90`, reuse the returned `tbx_...` id for all `run`/`download` commands, and stop boxes you created before handoff. Timeout bins: `90` minutes default, `240` multi-hour, `720` all-day, `1440` overnight; anything above `1440` needs explicit approval and cleanup.
+- Testbox full-suite profile: `blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "env NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 pnpm test"`. For installable package proof, prefer the GitHub `Package Acceptance` workflow over ad hoc Testbox commands.
 
-## Validation
+## GitHub / CI
 
-- Use `$openclaw-testing` for test/CI choice and `$crabbox` for remote/full/E2E proof.
-- Crabbox request means real scenario proof: install/update/call/repro user path; not just copy tests and run them remotely.
-- Small/narrow tests, lints, format checks, and type probes are fine locally only in a healthy normal checkout.
-- In Codex worktrees, direct local `pnpm test*`, `pnpm check*`, `pnpm crabbox:run`, and `scripts/committer` can trigger pnpm dependency reconciliation or install prompts. Prefer `node` wrappers locally and Crabbox/Testbox for pnpm-gated proof.
-- Full suites, broad changed gates, Docker/package/E2E/live/cross-OS proof, or anything that bogs down the Mac: Crabbox/Testbox.
-- One/few files local. If a local command fans out, stop and move broad proof to Crabbox/Testbox.
-- Before handoff/push: prove touched surface. Before landing to `main`: issue proof plus appropriate full/broad proof unless scope is clearly narrow.
-- Pre-land/pre-commit code changes: use `$autoreview` until no accepted/actionable findings remain, unless equivalent manual review already done, trivial/docs-only, or user opts out.
-- If proof is blocked, say exactly what is missing and why.
-- Do not land related failing format/lint/type/build/tests. If unrelated on latest `origin/main`, say so with scoped proof.
-- Docs/changelog-only and CI/workflow metadata-only: `git diff --check` plus relevant docs/workflow sanity; escalate only if scripts/config/generated/package/runtime behavior changed.
-- Prompt snapshots: CI truth is Linux Node 24. If macOS local passes but CI drifts, reproduce/generate in Linux before rerun.

-## GitHub / PRs
-
-- Use `$openclaw-pr-maintainer` immediately for maintainer-side OpenClaw issue/PR review, triage, duplicates, labels, comments, close, land, or evidence. Contributor PR creation/refresh follows the requested contributor workflow; linked refs alone do not require maintainer archive tooling.
-- Pasted GitHub issue/PR: first `git status -sb`; if dirty, yell; then `git push` + `git pull --ff-only`.
-- PR refs: `gh pr view/diff` or `gh api`, not web search. Prefer `gitcrawl` for maintainer discovery; missing/stale `gitcrawl` falls through to live `gh`, not contributor setup. Verify live with `gh` before mutation.
-- Bare issue/PR URL/number means review/report in chat. Suggest comment/close/merge when appropriate; mutate only when asked.
-- No unsolicited PR comments/reviews/labels/retitles/rebases/fixups/landing. Exception: close/duplicate action that needs a reason comment after explicit close/sweep/landing request.
-- Maintainer decision closes the cluster: if deciding reported behavior/proposed fix is not planned, comment+close all directly associated open issues/PRs unless explicitly told to keep one open. Associated means linked PRs/issues, duplicates, companion workaround PRs, and the canonical issue for the rejected behavior.
-- Do not leave associated issues open for hypothetical future repros. Close with rationale; ask for a new issue or reopen only if concrete new evidence appears. Close comment states: decision, why, supported alternative, and what evidence would change the decision.
-- PR review answer: bug/behavior, URL(s), affected surface, provenance for regressions when traceable, best-fix judgment, evidence from code/tests/CI/current or shipped behavior.
-- Issue/PR final answer: last line is the full GitHub URL.
-- Changelog: PR landings/fixes need one unless pure test/internal. Do not mention missing changelog as a review finding; Codex handles it during fix/landing.
-- PR verification: before merge, post exact local commands, CI/Testbox run IDs, before/after proof when used, and known proof gaps.
-- Issue fixed on `main` with proof: comment proof + commit/PR, then close.
-- After landing or requested close/sweep: search duplicates; comment proof + canonical commit/PR/release before closing.
-- After landing/ship final: include 2-5 sentence recap of what landed: behavior change, key files/surface, proof run, issue/PR state. Do not answer with only status/links.
+- Triage: list first, hydrate few. Use bounded `gh --json --jq`; avoid repeated full comment scans.
+- Bare GitHub issue/PR URL or number => `review <ref>`: load repo maintainer skill if available, inspect live with `gh`, report findings in chat. No comments/close/merge/fix unless explicitly asked.
+- Automatic PR/issue discovery: skip maintainer-owned items unless directly relevant. Do not comment, close, label, retitle, rebase, fix up, or land them without explicit maintainer request.
+- PR scan/triage: no unsolicited PR comments/reviews. Report in chat only unless explicitly asked, or a close/duplicate action needs a reason comment.
+- Search/dedupe: prefer `gh search issues 'repo:openclaw/openclaw is:open <terms>' --json number,title,state,updatedAt --limit 20`.
+- GitHub search boolean text is fussy. If `OR` queries return empty, split exact terms and search title/body/comments separately before concluding no hits.
+- PR shortlist: `gh pr list ...`; then `gh pr view <n> --json number,title,body,closingIssuesReferences,files,statusCheckRollup,reviewDecision`.
+- After landing PR: search duplicate open issues/PRs. Before closing: comment why + canonical link.
+- If an issue/PR is already fixed on current `main` or solved by a new release: comment with proof + canonical commit/PR/release, then close.
 - `ship` that fixes an issue: after push, comment proof + commit link, then close the issue.
-- GH comments with backticks, `$`, or shell snippets: use heredoc/body file, not inline double-quoted `--body`.
-- PR create: real body required. Include Summary + Verification; mention refs, behavior, and proof.
-- Real behavior proof section is parsed. Use exact `field: value` labels: `Behavior addressed`, `Real environment tested`, `Exact steps or command run after this patch`, `Evidence after fix`, `Observed result after fix`, `What was not tested`.
-- PR artifacts/screenshots: attach to PR/comment/external artifact store. Do not commit `.github/pr-assets`.
-- CI polling: exact SHA, relevant checks only, minimal fields. Skip routine noise (`Auto response`, `Labeler`, docs agents, performance/stale). Logs only after failure/completion or concrete need.
-- Maintainers: may skip/ignore `Real behavior proof` when local tests or Crabbox verified behavior; record proof in PR verification.
-- `/landpr`: use `~/.codex/prompts/landpr.md`; do not idle on `auto-response` or `check-docs`.
+- GH comments with markdown backticks, `$`, or shell snippets: avoid inline double-quoted `--body`; use single quotes or `--body-file`.
+- PR create: description/body always required. Include concise Summary + Verification sections; mention issue/PR refs, behavior changed, and exact local/Testbox/CI proof. Never open an empty-description, empty-body, or placeholder-body PR.
+- PR execution artifacts/screenshots: attach them to the PR, comment, or an external artifact store. Do not add `.github/pr-assets` or other PR-only assets to the repo.
+- PR review answer must explicitly cover: what bug/behavior we are trying to fix; PR/issue URL(s) and affected endpoint/surface; whether this is the best possible fix, with high-certainty evidence from code, tests, CI, and shipped/current behavior.
+- When working on an issue or PR, always end the user-facing final answer with the full GitHub URL.
+- CI polling: exact SHA, needed fields only. Example: `gh api repos/<owner>/<repo>/actions/runs/<id> --jq '{status,conclusion,head_sha,updated_at,name,path}'`.
+- Full Release Validation exact-SHA proof: use `pnpm ci:full-release --sha <sha>`; do not dispatch `--ref main -f ref=<sha>` on moving `main`. GitHub dispatch refs cannot be raw SHAs, so the helper uses a temporary pinned branch and verifies child `headSha`.
+- Post-land wait: minimal. Exact landed SHA only. If superseded on `main`, same-branch `cancel-in-progress` cancellations are expected; stop once local touched-surface proof exists. Never wait for newer unrelated `main` unless asked.
+- Wait matrix:
+  - never: `Auto response`, `Labeler`, `Docs Sync Publish Repo`, `Docs Agent`, `Test Performance Agent`, `Stale`.
+  - conditional: `CI` exact SHA only; `Docs` only docs task/no local docs proof; `Workflow Sanity` only workflow/composite/CI-policy edits; `Plugin NPM Release` only plugin package/release metadata.
+  - release/manual only: `Docker Release`, `OpenClaw NPM Release`, `macOS Release`, `OpenClaw Release Checks`, `Cross-OS Release Checks`, `NPM Telegram Beta E2E`.
+  - explicit/surface only: `QA-Lab - All Lanes`, `Scheduled Live And E2E`, `Install Smoke`, `CodeQL`, `Sandbox Common Smoke`, `Parity gate`, `Blacksmith Testbox`, `Control UI Locale Refresh`.
+- `/landpr`: do not idle on `auto-response` or `check-docs`. Treat docs as local proof unless `check-docs` already failed with actionable relevant error.
+- Poll 30-60s. Fetch jobs/logs/artifacts only after failure/completion or concrete need.

+- Pre-commit hook: staged formatting only. Validation explicit.
+- Changed lanes:
+  - core prod: core prod typecheck + core tests
+  - core tests: core test typecheck/tests
+  - extension prod: extension prod typecheck + extension tests
+  - extension tests: extension test typecheck/tests
+  - public SDK/plugin contract: extension prod/test too
+  - unknown root/config: all lanes
+- Before handoff/push for code/test/runtime/config changes: prove the touched surface. Use local targeted tests/checks for narrow changes; use Testbox when `pnpm check:changed`, `pnpm test:changed`, or other validation selects broad/shared lanes or needs a remote/end-to-end environment. Full prod sweeps (`pnpm check`, full `pnpm test`) belong in Testbox by default on maintainer machines.
+- If `pnpm test:changed` or `pnpm check:changed` stays narrowly scoped, it can run locally. If it fans out into broad/shared lanes, stop it and move the broad gate to Testbox.
+- Docs/changelog-only and CI/workflow metadata-only changes are not changed-gate work by default. Use `git diff --check` plus the relevant formatter/docs/workflow sanity check; escalate to `pnpm check:changed` only when scripts, test config, generated docs/API, package metadata, or runtime/build behavior changed.
+- Rebase sanity: after a green `pnpm check:changed`, a clean rebase onto current
+  `origin/main` does not require rerunning the full changed gate when the rebase
+  has no conflicts and the branch diff is materially unchanged. Do a quick
+  `git status`, `git diff --check`, and diff/stat sanity check; rerun targeted or
+  full checks only if conflict resolution, upstream overlap, generated drift,
+  dependency/config changes, or touched-file content changes make the prior
+  result stale.
+- Before shipping commits or landing PRs to `main`: live-prove the reported issue when feasible. Prefer a Crabbox scenario that reproduces the failure on the right OS, then proves the candidate fix. If Crabbox is unavailable, use the closest real system, Docker, Parallels, CI live lane, or maintained E2E smoke; if blocked, say what proof is missing and why.
+- Landing on `main`: verify touched surface near landing. Default feasible bar: issue live proof + `pnpm check` + `pnpm test`.
+- Hard build gate: `pnpm build` before push if build output, packaging, lazy/module boundaries, or published surfaces can change.
+- Do not land related failing format/lint/type/build/tests. If unrelated on latest `origin/main`, say so with scoped proof.
+- Generated/API drift: `pnpm check:architecture`, `pnpm config:docs:gen/check`, `pnpm plugin-sdk:api:gen/check`. Track `docs/.generated/*.sha256`; full JSON ignored.

-- Formatter-friendly shape: when oxfmt explodes an expression vertically, extract named booleans, payloads, or small helpers. Do not change width or use format-ignore for local compactness.
-- Calls should be boring: complex decisions happen above; call args/object fields are names, literals, or simple property reads.
-- Prefer early returns over nested condition pyramids. Split code into gather -> normalize -> decide -> act.
-- Use named intermediates only for domain meaning or readability; avoid temp-variable soup.

+- Mock expensive seams directly: scanners, manifests, registries, fs crawls, provider SDKs, network/process launch.
+- Plugin tests mocking `plugin-registry` need both manifest-registry and metadata-snapshot exports; missing `loadPluginRegistrySnapshotWithMetadata` masks install/slot behavior.
+- Thread-bound subagent tests that do not create a requester transcript should set `context: "isolated"` so fork-context validation does not hide lifecycle cleanup paths.

 ## Docs / Changelog
 
-- Use `$openclaw-docs` for docs writing/review. Docs change with behavior/API.
-- Codex harness upgrade (`extensions/codex/package.json` `@openai/codex`): refresh `docs/plugins/codex-harness.md` model snapshot from the new harness `model/list`.
-- Docs final answers: include relevant full `https://docs.openclaw.ai/...` URL(s). If issue/PR work too, GitHub URL last.
-- Changelog entries: active version `### Changes`/`### Fixes`; single-line bullets only.
-- Contributor PR authors should not edit `CHANGELOG.md`; maintainer/AI adds entries during landing/merge.

+- Changelog user-facing only; fixing an issue or landing/merging a PR needs one unless pure test/internal.
+- Missing changelog is not a PR review finding or merge blocker. If landing/fixing a user-visible change, add/update changelog automatically when practical; never ask or block solely on it.
+- Changelog placement: active version `### Changes`/`### Fixes`; contributor-facing added entries should include at least one `Thanks @author` attribution, using credited human GitHub username(s). Never add `Thanks @codex`, `Thanks @openclaw`, `Thanks @clawsweeper`, or `Thanks @steipete`; if the real credited human is unknown, leave attribution blank instead of guessing or adding a random person.
+- Changelog bullets are always single-line. No wrapping/continuation across multiple lines. Long entries stay on one long line so dedupe, PR-ref, and credit-audit tooling work and so the visual style stays uniform.

+- Memory wiki: keep prompt digest tiny. The prompt should only say the wiki exists, prefer `wiki_search` / `wiki_get`, start from `reports/person-agent-directory.md` for people routing, use search modes (`find-person`, `route-question`, `source-evidence`, `raw-claim`) when useful, and verify contact data before use.
