+## Interactive Desktop And WebVNC
+
+Prefer WebVNC for human inspection because the browser portal can preload the
+lease VNC password and avoids a native VNC client's copy/paste/password dance.
+Use native `crabbox vnc` only when WebVNC is unavailable, the browser portal is
+broken, or the user explicitly wants a local VNC client.

+Common desktop flow:
+
+```sh
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox warmup --provider hetzner --desktop --browser --class standard --idle-timeout 60m --ttl 240m
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox desktop launch --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --browser --url https://example.com --webvnc --open
+```
+
+Useful WebVNC commands:
+
+```sh
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox webvnc --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --open
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox webvnc --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --daemon --open
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox webvnc --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --status

+../crabbox/bin/crabbox screenshot --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --output desktop.png
+```
+
+`desktop launch --webvnc --open` is usually the nicest one-shot: it starts the
+browser/app inside the visible session, bridges the lease into the authenticated
+WebVNC portal, and opens the portal. Keep browsers windowed for human QA; use
+`--fullscreen` only for capture/video workflows.

 - The helper is intentionally cache-friendly for gitcrawl-backed `gh`: it rounds repo-local windows to the UTC day, rounds global contribution windows to the UTC hour, and counts PRs/issues from one paginated issues response before fetching commits separately. Prefer reusing the helper instead of hand-rolling several `gh api` loops.

 - 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.

 ## Unreleased
 
-### Highlights
-
-- Google Meet/Voice Call: make Twilio dial-in joins speak through the realtime Gemini voice bridge with paced audio streaming, backpressure-aware buffering, barge-in queue clearing, and no TwiML fallback during realtime speech, giving Meet participants a much snappier OpenClaw voice agent. (#77064) Thanks @scoootscooob.
-
 ### Changes
 
-- Control UI: refresh the app shell into a denser cockpit layout with session navigation, live runtime cards, and a right-side skills/jobs/hooks inspector.
+- Telegram: preserve the channel-specific 10-option poll cap in the unified outbound adapter so over-limit polls are rejected before send. (#78762) Thanks @obviyus.
+- Runtime/install: raise the supported Node 22 floor to `22.16+` so native SQLite query handling can rely on the `node:sqlite` statement metadata API while continuing to recommend Node 24. (#78921)
+- Discord/voice: include a bounded one-line STT transcript preview in verbose voice logs so live voice debugging shows what speakers said before the agent reply.
+- Discord/voice: stream ElevenLabs TTS directly into Discord playback and send ElevenLabs latency optimization as the documented query parameter so spoken replies can start sooner.
+- Discord/voice: keep TTS playback running when another user starts speaking, ignore new capture during playback to avoid feedback loops, and downgrade expected receive-stream aborts to verbose diagnostics.
+- Telegram: treat successful same-chat `message` tool outbound sends during an inbound telegram turn as delivered when deciding whether to emit the rewritten silent reply fallback (#78685). Thanks @neeravmakwana.
+- Gateway/tasks: reconcile stale CLI run-context tasks whose live run context disappeared even when a child session row remains, and apply the default bounded reload deferral timeout to channel hot reloads so stale task records cannot block Discord/Slack/Telegram reloads forever.
+- Gateway/sessions: keep session-store index writes atomic while skipping durable fsync inside the writer lock, reducing cron and channel-turn starvation on slow filesystems and addressing the session-store strand of #73655. Thanks @mmartoccia.
+- Discord/voice: make `openclaw channels capabilities --channel discord --target channel:<id>` and `channels status --probe` audit voice-channel permissions, including auto-join targets, so missing Connect/Speak/Read Message History permissions show up before `/vc join`.
+- Channels CLI: make `openclaw channels list` channel-only — drop the `Auth providers (OAuth + API keys)` block (use `openclaw models auth list`), drop the per-provider usage/quota fetch and the `--no-usage` flag (use `openclaw status` or `openclaw models list`), add `--all` to surface bundled-unconfigured, catalog-not-installed, and catalog-installed-but-unconfigured channels, and render explicit `installed` / `configured` / `enabled` tags per row plus an `origin` + `installed` field in JSON. Fixes WeCom-class catalog channels disappearing from `--all` when installed on disk but not yet configured. (#78456) Thanks @sliverp.
+- CLI/cron: add computed `status` field to `cron list --json` and `cron show <id> --json` output, mirroring the human-readable status column (disabled/running/ok/error/skipped/idle) so external tooling can determine job state without re-deriving it from raw state fields. (#78701) Thanks @aweiker.
+- Discord/voice: make voice capture less choppy by extending the default post-speech silence grace to 2.5s, add `voice.captureSilenceGraceMs` for noisy Discord sessions, and tighten the spoken-output prompt around live STT fragments. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Discord/streaming: default Discord replies to progress draft previews so tool/work activity appears in one edited Discord message unless `channels.discord.streaming.mode` is set to `off`.
+- OpenAI: support `openai/chat-latest` as an explicit direct API-key model override for trying the moving ChatGPT Instant API alias without changing the stable default model.
+- Plugins/install: add `npm-pack:<path.tgz>` installs so local npm pack artifacts run through the same managed npm-root install, lockfile verification, dependency scan, and install-record path as registry npm plugins.
+- Channels/plugins: show configured official external channels as missing-plugin status rows and send errors with exact install/doctor repair commands after raw package-manager upgrades leave Feishu or WhatsApp uninstalled. Fixes #78702 and #78593. Thanks @MarkMa84 and @mkupiainen.
+- Codex app-server: disarm the short post-tool completion watchdog after current-turn activity, expose `appServer.turnCompletionIdleTimeoutMs`, and include raw assistant item context in idle-timeout diagnostics so status-only post-tool stalls stop failing as idle. Fixes #77984. Thanks @roseware-dev and @rubencu.
+- Plugin skills/Windows: publish plugin-provided skill directories as junctions on Windows so standard users without Developer Mode can register plugin skills without symlink EPERM failures. Fixes #77958. (#77971) Thanks @hclsys and @jarro.
+- MS Teams: surface blocked Bot Framework egress by logging JWKS fetch network failures and adding a Bot Connector send hint for transport-level reply failures. Fixes #77674. (#78081) Thanks @Beandon13.
+- Gateway/sessions: fast-path already-qualified model refs while building session-list rows so `openclaw sessions` and Control UI session lists avoid heavyweight model resolution on large stores. (#77902) Thanks @ragesaq.
+- Contributor PRs: remind external contributors to redact private information like IP addresses, API keys, phone numbers, and non-public endpoints from real behavior proof. Thanks @pashpashpash.
+- Codex/approvals: in Codex approval modes, stop installing the pre-guardian native `PermissionRequest` hook by default so Codex's reviewer can approve safe commands before OpenClaw surfaces an approval, remember `allow-always` decisions for identical Codex native `PermissionRequest` payloads within the active session window, and make plugin approval requests validate/render their actual allowed decisions so Telegram and other native approval UIs cannot offer stale actions. Thanks @shakkernerd.
+- PR triage: mark external pull requests with `proof: supplied` when Barnacle finds structured real behavior proof, keep stale negative proof labels in sync across CRLF-edited PR bodies, and let ClawSweeper own the stronger `proof: sufficient` judgement.
+- Sessions CLI: show the selected agent runtime in the `openclaw sessions` table so terminal output matches the runtime visibility already present in JSON/status surfaces. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- ACPX/Codex: preserve trusted Codex project declarations when launching isolated Codex ACP sessions, avoiding interactive trust prompts in headless runs. Thanks @Stedyclaw.
+- ACPX/Codex: reap stale OpenClaw-owned ACPX/Codex ACP process trees on startup and after ACP session close, preventing orphaned harness processes from slowing the Gateway. Thanks @91wan.
+- ACP bridge: implement stable session list, resume, and close handlers so ACP clients can page Gateway sessions, rebind existing sessions without replay, and close bridge sessions cleanly. Thanks @amknight.
+- ACP sessions: allow parent agents to inspect and message their own spawned cross-agent ACP sessions without enabling broad agent-to-agent visibility. Thanks @barronlroth.
+- Talk/voice: unify realtime relay, transcription relay, managed-room handoff, Voice Call, Google Meet, VoiceClaw, and native clients around a shared Talk session controller and add the Gateway-managed `talk.session.*` RPC surface.
+- Diagnostics/Talk: export bounded Talk lifecycle/audio metrics and session recovery metrics through OpenTelemetry and Prometheus without exposing transcripts, audio payloads, room ids, turn ids, or session ids.
+- Logging/Talk: route shared Talk lifecycle events into bounded file and OTLP log records while keeping transcript text, audio payloads, turn ids, call ids, and provider item ids out of logs.
+- Google Meet/Voice Call: make Twilio dial-in joins speak through the realtime Gemini voice bridge with paced audio streaming, backpressure-aware buffering, barge-in queue clearing, same-session agent consult routing, duplicate-consult coalescing, and no TwiML fallback during realtime speech, giving Meet participants a much snappier OpenClaw voice agent. (#77064) Thanks @scoootscooob.
+- Voice Call/realtime: add opt-in OpenClaw agent voice context capsules and consult-cadence guidance so Gemini/OpenAI realtime calls can sound like the configured agent without consulting the full agent on every ordinary turn. Thanks @scoootscooob.
+- Docker/Gateway: harden the gateway container by dropping `NET_RAW` and `NET_ADMIN` capabilities and enabling `no-new-privileges` in the bundled `docker-compose.yml`. Thanks @VintageAyu.
 - Telegram: accept plugin-owned numeric forum-topic targets in the agent message tool and keep reply-dispatch provider chunks behind a real stable runtime alias during in-place package updates. Fixes #77137. Thanks @richardmqq.
+- Telegram/streaming: keep draft preview rotation from reusing a pre-tool assistant preview after visible tool or media output lands between compaction replay and the next assistant message. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Telegram/performance: skip non-forum topic-cache setup, defer status reaction variant work until reactions are needed, and reuse ack reaction gating during message context assembly. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Channels/WhatsApp: support explicit WhatsApp Channel/Newsletter `@newsletter` outbound message targets with channel session metadata instead of DM routing. Fixes #13417; carries forward the narrow outbound target idea from #13424. Thanks @vincentkoc and @agentz-manfred.
 - TTS/telephony: honor provider voice/model overrides in telephony synthesis providers so Google Meet agent speech logs match the backend that actually produced the audio. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Voice Call/realtime: bound the paced Twilio audio queue and close overloaded realtime streams before provider audio can pile up behind the websocket backpressure guard. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Google Meet: preserve `realtime.introMessage: ""` so realtime Chrome joins can stay silent instead of restoring the default spoken intro. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- CLI/migrate: add bulk on/off and skip controls to interactive Codex skill migration, leaving conflicting skill copies unchecked by default. (#77597) Thanks @kevinslin.
 - OpenAI/Codex media: advertise Codex audio transcription in runtime and manifest metadata and route active Codex chat models to the OpenAI transcription default instead of sending chat model ids to audio transcription. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Models/auth: add `openclaw models auth list [--provider <id>] [--json]` so users can inspect saved per-agent auth profiles without dumping secrets or hitting the old “too many arguments” path. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Cron CLI: add `openclaw cron list --agent <id>`, normalize the requested agent id, and include jobs without a stored agent id under the configured default agent while keeping `cron list` unfiltered when no agent is supplied. Fixes #77118. Thanks @zhanggttry.

 - Control UI/chat: collapse consecutive duplicate text messages into one bubble with a count so repeated text-only messages stay compact without hiding nearby context.
+- Control UI/chat and Sessions: label inherited thinking defaults separately from explicit overrides while preserving provider-supplied option labels. Fixes #77581. Thanks @BunsDev and @Beandon13.

+- Gateway/performance: avoid resolving plugin auto-enable metadata twice in one runtime config pass, reducing repeated dashboard turn metadata scans. Thanks @shakkernerd.
+- Auth/providers: pass `config` and `workspaceDir` lookup context through to provider-id resolution so workspace-scoped auth aliases resolve correctly when no explicit alias map is supplied. Thanks @shakkernerd.
+- Gateway/performance: avoid importing `jiti` on native-loadable plugin startup paths, so compiled bundled plugin surfaces do not pay source-transform loader cost unless fallback loading is actually needed.
+- Gateway/diagnostics: add startup phase spans, active work labels, stale terminal bridge markers, and default sync-I/O tracing in `pnpm gateway:watch` so slow Gateway turns are easier to attribute from logs and stability diagnostics.
+- Plugins/loader: preserve real compiled plugin module evaluation errors on the native fast path instead of treating every thrown `.js` module as a source-transform fallback miss. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- QA/Mantis: add `pnpm openclaw qa mantis slack-desktop-smoke` to run Slack live QA inside a Crabbox VNC desktop, open Slack Web, and capture desktop screenshots beside the Slack QA artifacts.
+- QA/Mantis: add an opt-in Discord thread attachment before/after scenario that creates a real thread, calls `message.thread-reply` with `filePath`, and captures baseline/candidate screenshot evidence.
+- Discord: preserve `filePath` and `path` attachments when replying to a thread with the message tool.
+- Discord/message: parse provider-prefixed targets like `discord:channel:<id>` as channel sends instead of legacy Discord DM targets, so cross-channel agent `message(action="send")` calls no longer misroute channel IDs into misleading `Unknown Channel` failures. Fixes #78572. (#78625) Thanks @Patrick-Erichsen.
+- QA/Mantis: add visual desktop tasks with Crabbox MP4 recording, screenshot capture, and optional image-understanding assertions, and preserve video artifacts in Mantis before/after reports.
+- QA/WhatsApp: add `pnpm openclaw qa whatsapp` for live DM canary and pairing-gate coverage using two pre-linked WhatsApp Web sessions from the QA credential pool.
+- QA/Mantis: pass the runtime env through desktop-browser Crabbox and artifact-copy child commands, so embedded Mantis callers can provide Crabbox credentials without mutating the parent process. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- QA/Mantis: return the copied Slack desktop screenshot path even when remote Slack QA fails, so the CLI still prints the failure screenshot artifact. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- QA/Mantis: accept Blacksmith Testbox `tbx_...` lease ids from desktop smoke warmup, so provider overrides do not fail before inspect/run. Thanks @vincentkoc.

+- Plugin SDK: add `actions.prepareSendPayload(...)` so channel plugins can shape message-tool sends into durable payloads while core owns queueing, hooks, retry, recovery, and acknowledgements.
+- Plugin SDK: make the legacy `channel-reply-pipeline` subpath a compatibility wrapper over the shared reply core while steering root compat deprecations toward `plugin-sdk/channel-message`.
+- Plugin SDK: move Discord, Slack, Mattermost, and Matrix live-preview finalization onto `plugin-sdk/channel-message` and attach message receipts to Telegram finalized previews plus Teams native stream finals, so preview edits and stream finals are represented in the message lifecycle instead of draft-only helpers.
+- Telegram: persist the polling restart watermark after successful update dispatch instead of at handler entry, leaving failed updates retryable while still coalescing completed offsets safely.
 - Agents/subagents: preserve every grouped child result when direct completion fallback has to bypass the requester-agent announce turn. Thanks @vincentkoc.

 - QA/Codex harness: add targeted live Docker/Testbox diagnostics, auth preflight checks, cache mount fixes, and app-server protocol checkout discovery so maintainer harness failures are easier to reproduce. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - QA/Mantis: add `pnpm openclaw qa mantis slack-desktop-smoke` to run Slack live QA inside a Crabbox VNC desktop, open Slack Web, and capture desktop screenshots beside the Slack QA artifacts.
 - QA/Mantis: add visual desktop tasks with Crabbox MP4 recording, screenshot capture, and optional image-understanding assertions, and preserve video artifacts in Mantis before/after reports.
+- QA/Mantis: reuse Crabbox desktop/browser capture tooling and pnpm store caches during Slack desktop smoke runs, reducing per-scenario setup work before screenshots and videos are captured.
+- QA/Mantis: add Slack desktop hydrate modes and per-phase timing reports so warm prehydrated VNC leases can skip source install/build while cold runs still prove the full source checkout.
 - QA/Mantis: pass the runtime env through desktop-browser Crabbox and artifact-copy child commands, so embedded Mantis callers can provide Crabbox credentials without mutating the parent process. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - QA/Mantis: return the copied Slack desktop screenshot path even when remote Slack QA fails, so the CLI still prints the failure screenshot artifact. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - QA/Mantis: accept Blacksmith Testbox `tbx_...` lease ids from desktop smoke warmup, so provider overrides do not fail before inspect/run. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Plugins/SDK: add bounded `before_agent_finalize` retry instructions so workflow plugins can request one more model pass. Thanks @100yenadmin.
 - Plugin SDK: add plugin-owned `SessionEntry` slot projection and scoped trusted-policy session extension reads. (#75609; replaces part of #73384/#74483) Thanks @100yenadmin.
+- Control UI/WebChat: show a persistent compact context usage indicator from fresh session token data before the high-pressure warning state, while keeping the existing compaction prompt threshold. Fixes #46398; refs #45048, #50071, and #73744. Thanks @walterwkchoy, @AxelrodAI, @Brissux, @vincentkoc, and @BunsDev.
 - Docs: clarify that IRC uses raw TCP/TLS sockets outside operator-managed forward proxy routing, so direct IRC egress should be explicitly approved before enabling IRC. Thanks @jesse-merhi.
 - Dependencies: refresh runtime and provider packages including Pi 0.73.0, ACPX adapters, OpenAI, Anthropic, Slack, and TypeScript native preview, while keeping the Bedrock runtime installer override pinned below the Windows ARM Node 24 npm resolver failure.
 - Contributor PRs: require external pull requests to include after-fix real behavior proof from a real OpenClaw setup, with terminal screenshots, console output, redacted runtime logs, linked artifacts, and copied live output treated as valid evidence while unit tests, mocks, lint, typechecks, snapshots, and CI remain supplemental only.
+- Plugins/catalog: add an `@tencent-weixin/openclaw-weixin` external entry pinned to `2.4.1` so onboarding and `openclaw channels add` can install the Tencent Weixin (personal WeChat) channel by default. (#77269) Thanks @pumpkinxing1.
+- Developer tooling: add checked-in VS Code Gateway debugging configs and an opt-in `OUTPUT_SOURCE_MAPS=1` source-map build path for breakpoints in TypeScript source. (#45710) Thanks @SwissArmyBud.
+- Managed proxy: add `proxy.loopbackMode` for Gateway loopback control-plane traffic, allowing operators to keep the default Gateway loopback bypass, force loopback Gateway traffic through the proxy, or block it. (#77018) Thanks @jesse-merhi.
+- Telegram/native commands: show the current thinking level above the `/think` level picker so users can see the active setting before changing it. (#78278) Thanks @obviyus.
+- Plugins/hooks: add a `before_agent_run` pass/block gate that can stop a user prompt before model submission while preserving a redacted transcript entry for the user, and clarify that raw conversation hooks require `hooks.allowConversationAccess=true`. (#75035) Thanks @jesse-merhi.
+- Config/Nix: keep startup-derived plugin enablement, gateway auth tokens, control UI origins, and owner-display secrets runtime-only instead of rewriting `openclaw.json`; in Nix mode, config writers, mutating `openclaw update`, plugin lifecycle mutators, and doctor repair/token-generation now refuse with agent-first nix-openclaw guidance. (#78047) Thanks @joshp123.
+- Agents/context engine: invalidate cached assembled context views when source history shrinks or assembly fails, preventing stale pre-reset history from being reused. Fixes #77968. (#78163) Thanks @brokemac79 and @ChrisBot2026.
+
+### Breaking
+
+- Channels/iMessage: remove the bundled BlueBubbles channel surface and deprecate BlueBubbles-backed iMessage setup in OpenClaw. Existing `channels.bluebubbles` configs must migrate to `channels.imessage` using `imsg` on a signed-in Mac or an SSH wrapper, and non-macOS default `imsg` configs now report remote-Mac wrapper guidance.
 
 ### Fixes
 
+- TUI/local runs: keep stable runtime plugin aliases present when legacy compatibility wrappers already exist in dist, so sending a message no longer fails with a missing `runtime-plugins.runtime.js` module.
+- Providers: preserve non-OK `text/event-stream` response bodies so provider HTTP errors keep their JSON detail instead of collapsing to generic streaming failures. Fixes #78180.
+- Chat commands: make `/model default` reset the session model override instead of treating it as a literal model name. Fixes #78182.
+- Cron: make rejected `payload.model` errors show the configured `agents.defaults.models` allowlist instead of echoing the rejected model twice. Fixes #79058.
+- Agents/subagents: retry parent wake announces when the announce-summary model run fails with fallback cooldown exhaustion instead of dropping the wake on the first transient provider overload. Refs #78581.
+- Providers/network: honor IPv4 CIDR and octet-wildcard `NO_PROXY` entries such as `100.64.0.0/10` and `100.64.*` before enabling trusted env-proxy mode for model-provider requests. Fixes #79030.
+- Docs/Docker: document a local Compose override for Docker Desktop DNS failures in the shared-network `openclaw-cli` sidecar, keeping the default compose setup hardened while unblocking `openclaw plugins install` when users opt in. Fixes #79018. Thanks @Jason-Vaughan.
+- Installer: when npm installs `openclaw` outside the parent shell PATH, print follow-up commands with the resolved binary path instead of telling users to run `openclaw` from a shell that will report `command not found`. Fixes #72382. Thanks @jbob762.
+- Compute plugin callback authorization dynamically [AI]. (#78866) Thanks @pgondhi987.
+- fix(active-memory): require admin scope for global toggles [AI]. (#78863) Thanks @pgondhi987.
+- Honor owner enforcement for native commands [AI]. (#78864) Thanks @pgondhi987.
+- Tavily: resolve dedicated `tavily_search` and `tavily_extract` tool credentials from the active runtime config snapshot, so `exec` SecretRef-backed API keys do not reach the tools unresolved. (#78610) Thanks @VACInc.
+- Gateway/sessions: clear cached skills snapshots during `/new` and `sessions.reset` so long-lived channel sessions rebuild the visible skill list after skills change. (#78873) Thanks @Evizero.
+- fix(auto-reply): gate inline skill tool dispatch [AI]. (#78517) Thanks @pgondhi987.
+- Canvas plugin: keep legacy root `canvasHost` configs valid until `openclaw doctor --fix` migrates them into `plugins.entries.canvas.config.host`, move Canvas/A2UI clients to gateway protocol v4 plugin surfaces, and refresh the generated A2UI bundle hash so normal builds stay clean.
+- feishu: honor config write policy for dynamic agents [AI]. (#78520) Thanks @pgondhi987.
+- fix(skill-workshop): honor pending approval for tool suggestions [AI]. (#78516) Thanks @pgondhi987.
+- BytePlus: mark Kimi K2.5 and Kimi K2 Thinking catalog entries as reasoning-capable, raise their output cap to 32k tokens, and fill Kimi cache-read pricing. Fixes #54149.
+- Control UI/chat: wait for an in-flight model dropdown patch before sending the next chat message, so immediate sends use the selected session model instead of racing the previous override. Fixes #54240.
+- Native chat: decode gateway-provided thinking metadata for the iOS/macOS picker so provider-specific levels such as `adaptive`, `xhigh`, and `max` appear without leaking unsupported default-model options. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Agents/compaction: cap summarization output reserve tokens to the selected model's `maxTokens` so 1M-context Anthropic compactions do not request more output than the API permits. Fixes #54383.
+- Agents/tools: fail `exec host=node` before `system.run` when the selected node is known to be disconnected, with an actionable reconnect message instead of a raw node invoke failure. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Agents/models: accept legacy `anthropic-cli/*` model refs as Claude CLI runtime refs instead of failing model resolution with `Unknown model`. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Agents/tools: keep restrictive-profile tool-section warnings scoped to the configured sections whose tools are still missing from `alsoAllow`, so already re-allowed filesystem tools do not make exec-only fixes look broader than they are. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Agents/tools: avoid warning messaging-only agents about inherited global `tools.exec` or `tools.fs` sections when the agent profile did not configure those tool sections itself. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Codex dynamic tools: normalize runtime `toolsAllow` entries the same way as Pi tool policy, so aliases like `bash` and `apply-patch` still expose the intended OpenClaw tools. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Memory/dreaming: read OpenAI-style `output_text` assistant parts from narrative subagent transcripts, so light-phase Dream Diary entries are not dropped as empty. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- OpenAI-compatible providers: honor `compat.supportsTools=false` by stripping tool payload fields before dispatch to chat-only endpoints. Fixes #74664.
+- OpenAI-compatible providers: apply model-declared unsupported tool-schema keyword stripping to native OpenAI transport payloads and mark Fireworks Kimi K2.5 as rejecting `not` schemas. Fixes #75467.
+- OpenAI-compatible gateway: sanitize images supplied through request content even when the prompt text contains no image file references, preventing oversized attachment payloads from bypassing the resize/drop pipeline. Fixes #59913.
+- Auth profiles: normalize inline API keys and tokens loaded from `auth-profiles.json` so masked or rich-text credential artifacts fail as auth errors instead of crashing HTTP header construction. Fixes #77624.
+- llm-task: resolve configured model aliases before embedded dispatch so `model="gemini-flash"` and other aliases route to the intended provider instead of the agent default. Fixes #54166.
+- Media generation: resolve slash-containing model-only overrides like `fal-ai/flux/dev` through registered provider model metadata so FAL image/video models do not get misparsed as provider `fal-ai`. Fixes #77444.
+- Commands/BTW: show the `/btw` missing-question usage placeholder with brackets so outbound channel sanitization keeps it visible. Fixes #62877. Thanks @RajvardhanPatil07.
+- CLI backends: keep versioned OAuth identity matches reusable when auth profile ids rotate, so Claude CLI sessions do not reset and lose continuity during same-account OAuth refresh/profile alias changes. Fixes #78541.
+- Model providers: normalize APNG sniffed PNG uploads, preserve Gemini 3 tool-call thought-signature replay with documented fallback signatures, accept legacy `__env__:VAR` custom-provider keys, and repair snake_case tool-call transcript sanitization. Fixes #51881, #48915, #77566, and #42858.
+- Telegram/models: parse provider ids containing dots in `/models` callback buttons so `hf.co` model lists render as inline keyboard buttons. Fixes #38745.
+- Amazon Bedrock: refresh shared AWS profile/config file credentials before Bedrock model, discovery, and embedding requests so long-running Gateway processes pick up renewed profile credentials without restart. Fixes #77551.
+- Amazon Bedrock: treat named `aws-sdk` auth profiles as config routing metadata instead of stored credentials, and let `doctor --fix` move legacy markers out of `auth-profiles.json`. Fixes #69708.
+- Anthropic: reject uppercase provider-prefixed forward-compat model ids locally instead of sending malformed dynamic ids upstream. Fixes #73715.
+- OpenAI/embeddings: pass configured output dimensionality through single and batched embedding requests so memory embedding indexes can request smaller vectors. Fixes #55126.
+- CLI/infer: normalize HEIC/HEIF image files to JPEG before model-run requests, avoiding providers that reject Apple image container formats. Fixes #50081.
+- CLI/infer: fall back to macOS `sips` when optional image tooling cannot decode HEIC/HEIF input files before model-run requests. Refs #50081.
+- OpenRouter: keep the default `openrouter/auto` model ref canonical while preventing TUI and Control UI catalog pickers from displaying or submitting `openrouter/openrouter/auto`. Fixes #62655.
+- Status/Claude CLI: show `oauth (claude-cli)` for working Claude CLI OAuth runtime sessions instead of `unknown` when no local auth profile exists. Fixes #78632. Thanks @gorkem2020.
+- Memory search: preserve keyword-only hybrid FTS matches when vector scoring is unavailable or below the configured minimum score, so exact lexical hits are not dropped by weighted min-score filtering.
+- Exec approvals/node: let trusted backend node invokes complete no-device Control UI approvals after the original request connection changes, while keeping node, command, cwd, env, and allow-once replay bindings enforced. Fixes #78569. Thanks @naturedogdog.
+- Agents/subagents: keep background completion delivery on the requester-agent handoff/queue-retry path instead of raw-sending child results directly, and strip child-result wrapper or OpenClaw runtime-context scaffolding from queued outbound retries. Fixes #78531. Thanks @EthanSK.
+- Sandbox: recreate cached browser bridges when JavaScript-evaluation permission changes, keep failed prune removals tracked for retry, and make cross-device directory moves copy-then-commit without partially emptying the source on failure.
+- CLI/completion: guard the shell-profile source line written by `openclaw completion --install` with a file existence check (`[ -f ... ] && source ...` for bash/zsh, `test -f ...; and source ...` for fish) so uninstalling OpenClaw no longer makes new login shells error on a missing completion cache. (#78659) Thanks @sjf.
+- Cron/doctor: repair persisted cron jobs whose `payload.model` was stored as `"default"`, `"null"`, blank, or JSON `null` by removing the bad override during `openclaw doctor --fix` while keeping cron runtime model validation strict. Fixes #78549. Thanks @bizzle12368239.
+- Telegram: honor `accessGroup:*` sender allowlists for DMs, groups, native commands, and callback authorization before applying Telegram's numeric sender-ID checks. Fixes #78660. Thanks @manugc.
+- Agent delivery: report `deliverySucceeded=false` when outbound delivery returns no adapter result, so claimed/empty delivery paths no longer masquerade as successful sends. Fixes #78532. Thanks @joeyfrasier.
+- Cron/isolated runs: fail implicit announce delivery before model execution when `delivery.channel=last` has no previous route, so recurring jobs do not spend tokens before hitting a permanent delivery-target error. Fixes #78608. Thanks @sallyom.
+- Gateway/sessions: persist a new generated transcript file when daily gateway-agent session rollover changes the session id, while preserving custom transcript paths. Fixes #78607. Thanks @nailujac, @zerone0x, and @sallyom.
+- Doctor/OpenAI Codex: repair legacy `openai-codex/*` agent model refs and stale OpenAI PI session pins to `openai/*` with the Codex runtime, preserving existing `openai-codex` auth profiles so ChatGPT/Codex OAuth users do not fall back to OpenAI API-key routing. Fixes #78407.
+- Telegram: keep the polling watchdog tied to `getUpdates` liveness so unrelated outbound Bot API calls cannot mask a wedged inbound poller. Fixes #78422. Thanks @ai-hpc.
+- Discord/groups: instruct group-chat agents to stay silent when a message is addressed to someone else, replying only when invited or correcting key facts. (#78615)
+- Discord/groups: tell Discord-channel agents to wrap bare URLs as `<https://example.com>` so link previews do not expand into uninvited embeds. (#78614)
+- Agents/fallback: fail fast on session write-lock timeouts instead of trying fallback models for local file contention. Fixes #66646. Thanks @sallyom.
+- Telegram/Codex: generate DM topic labels with Codex-compatible simple-completion requests so auto-created private topics can be renamed instead of staying `New Chat`.
+- Plugins/runtime fetch: drop third-party symbol metadata from plain request header dictionaries before passing them into native `fetch` or `Headers`, so SDK and guarded/proxy fetch paths do not reject otherwise valid plugin requests. Fixes #77846. Thanks @shakkernerd.
+- Web fetch: bound guarded dispatcher cleanup after request timeouts so timed-out fetches return tool errors instead of leaving Gateway tool lanes active. (#78439) Thanks @obviyus.
+- Mattermost/setup: prompt for and persist the server base URL after the bot token in `openclaw setup --wizard`, instead of failing validation before `--http-url` is collected. Fixes #76670. Thanks @jacobtomlinson.
+- Gate Slack startup user allowlist resolution [AI]. (#77898) Thanks @pgondhi987.
+- OpenAI/Codex: suppress stale `openai-codex` GPT-5.1/5.2/5.3 model refs that ChatGPT/Codex OAuth accounts now reject, keeping model lists, config validation, and forward-compat resolution on current 5.4/5.5 routes. Fixes #67158. Thanks @drpau.
+- CLI/update: keep pnpm package updates on the running custom global install root and pass pnpm's `--global-dir` so `openclaw update` does not create a second default-prefix install when `OPENCLAW_HOME` or the shell points at a custom OpenClaw directory. Fixes #78377. Thanks @amknight.
+- Google Meet/Voice Call: wait longer before playing PIN-derived Twilio DTMF for Meet dial-in prompts and retire stale delegated phone sessions instead of reusing completed calls.
+- PDF/Codex: include extraction-fallback instructions for `openai-codex/*` PDF tool requests so Codex Responses receives its required system prompt. Fixes #77872. Thanks @anyech.
+- Gateway/startup: keep the Gateway running when a configured optional plugin-owned capability such as a web_search provider or channel points at a known installable plugin that is currently unavailable; startup now logs a config warning and leaves `openclaw doctor --fix` to install or enable the plugin. (#78642) Thanks @joshavant.
+- Onboard/channels: recover externalized channel plugins from stale `channels.<id>` config by falling back to `ensureChannelSetupPluginInstalled` via the trusted catalog when the plugin is missing on disk, so leftover `appId`/token entries no longer dead-end onboard with "<channel> plugin not available." (#78328) Thanks @sliverp.
+- Agents/Gateway: throttle and cap live exec command-output events so noisy tool runs cannot flood Gateway WebSocket clients or starve RPC handling. (#78645) Thanks @joshavant.
+- Codex/app-server: forward the OpenClaw workspace bootstrap block through Codex `developerInstructions` instead of `config.instructions`, so persona/style guidance reaches the behavior-shaping app-server lane. Fixes #77363. Thanks @lonexreb.
+- MS Teams: route proactive channel sends with stored thread roots through the configured threaded reply path instead of forcing every CLI/message-tool send into a new top-level post. Fixes #78298. Thanks @amknight.
+- CLI/infer: pass minimal instructions to local `openai-codex/*` model probes and surface provider error details when `infer model run` returns no text. Fixes #76464. Thanks @lilesjtu.
+- Dependencies: override transitive `ip-address` to `10.2.0` so the runtime lockfile no longer includes the vulnerable `10.1.0` build flagged by Dependabot alert 109. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/install: apply OpenClaw's npm security overrides inside managed external plugin npm roots so hoisted plugin dependencies inherit the host package hardening. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/install: skip npm peer resolution in managed plugin roots so installing peer-based plugins such as Opik cannot pull a stale registry `openclaw` copy beside Codex/Discord/WhatsApp and trigger `ERESOLVE`. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/uninstall: run managed npm cleanup even when a plugin package directory is already missing, preventing stale package manifests from reinstalling removed plugins on the next npm install.
+- Feishu: hydrate missing native topic starter thread IDs before session routing so first turns and follow-ups stay in the same topic session. Fixes #78262. Thanks @joeyzenghuan.
+- Memory Wiki: skip empty and whitespace-only source pages when refreshing generated Related blocks, preventing blank pages from being rewritten into Related-only stubs. Fixes #78121. Thanks @amknight.
+- LINE: reject `dmPolicy: "open"` configs without wildcard `allowFrom` so webhook DMs fail validation instead of being acknowledged and silently blocked before inbound processing. Fixes #78316.
+- Telegram/Codex: keep message-tool-only progress drafts visible and render native Codex tool progress once per tool instead of duplicating item/tool draft lines. Fixes #75641. (#77949) Thanks @keshavbotagent.
+- Telegram/sessions: gap-fill delivered embedded final replies into the session JSONL even when the runner trace is missing, so Telegram answers after tool calls do not vanish from the durable transcript. Fixes #77814. (#78426) Thanks @obviyus, @ChushulSuri, and @DougButdorf.
+- Providers/xAI: stop sending OpenAI-style reasoning effort controls to native Grok Responses models, so `xai/grok-4.3` no longer fails live Docker/Gateway runs with `Invalid reasoning effort`.
+- Providers/xAI: clamp the bundled xAI thinking profile to `off` so live Gateway runs cannot send unsupported reasoning levels to native Grok Responses models.
+- Matrix/approvals: retry approval delivery up to 3 times with a short backoff so transient Matrix send failures do not strand pending approval prompts. (#78179) Thanks @Patrick-Erichsen.
+- Cron/heartbeat: let restricted cron-triggered runs read their own status and current-job list metadata again, preventing heartbeat STATUS freshness checks from going stale while preserving self-remove-only mutation limits. Fixes #78208. Thanks @amknight.
+- Discord/gateway: measure heartbeat ACK timeouts from the actual heartbeat send, preventing late initial heartbeats from triggering false reconnect loops while the channel is still awaiting readiness. Fixes #77668. (#78087) Thanks @bryce-d-greybeard and @NikolaFC.
+- Channels/cron: ignore stale runtime conversation bindings that point at completed isolated cron run sessions, so follow-up DMs fall back to their normal route instead of reusing a closed cron task prompt. Fixes #78074. Thanks @amknight.
+- Discord/guilds: route plain text control commands such as `/steer` through the normal authorization and mention gate instead of silently dropping them before an agent session can see them. Fixes #78080. Thanks @ramitrkar-hash.
+- Control UI/Sessions: make the compaction count a compact `N Checkpoint(s)` disclosure and show expanded session-level details with modern checkpoint history cards across responsive table layouts. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Control UI/performance: keep chat and channel tabs responsive while history payloads and channel probes are slow, label partial channel status, and record slow chat/config render timings in the event log. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- ACP: preserve streamed chunk boundaries in background-task progress summaries so CJK text, paths, URLs, and identifiers are no longer split with synthetic spaces. Fixes #78312. Thanks @amknight.
+- Control UI/sessions: fire the documented `/new` command and lifecycle hooks only for explicit Control UI session creation, restoring session-memory and custom hook capture without changing SDK parent-session creates. Fixes #76957. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Exec approvals: fall back to a guarded copy when Windows rejects rename-overwrite for `exec-approvals.json`, while preserving symlink, hard-link, and owner-only permission safeguards. Fixes #77785. (#77907) Thanks @Alex-Alaniz and @MilleniumGenAI.
+- Slack: preserve Socket Mode SDK error context and structured Slack API fields in reconnect logs, so startup failures no longer collapse to a bare `unknown error`.
+- Agents/subagents: preserve the delegated task prompt when a spawned target agent uses `systemPromptOverride`, so `sessions_spawn(mode: "run")` child runs still see their assigned task. Fixes #77950. Thanks @amknight.
+- iOS pairing: allow setup-code and manual `ws://` connects for private LAN and `.local` gateways while keeping Tailscale/public routes on `wss://`, and prefer explicit gateway passwords over stale bootstrap tokens in mixed-auth reconnects. Fixes #47887; carries forward #65185. Thanks @draix and @BunsDev.
+- Node/Windows: fall back to the Startup-folder launcher when Spanish-localized `schtasks` reports `Acceso denegado`, matching the existing access-denied fallback path. Fixes #77993. Thanks @jackonedev.
+- Plugins/diagnostics: make source-only TypeScript package warnings actionable by explaining that missing compiled runtime output is a publisher packaging issue and pointing users to update/reinstall or disable/uninstall the plugin. Fixes #77835. Thanks @googlerest.
+- Control UI/chat: keep persisted assistant progress text visible when the same transcript turn also contains tool-use metadata, so chat.history reloads no longer make those replies vanish after the next user message. Fixes #77374. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Cron: repair persisted future `nextRunAtMs` values that no longer line up with the cron schedule, so daily timezone-aware jobs do not stay jumped to stale future dates. Fixes #77867. Thanks @hongfangsong.
+- TUI: skip the generic CLI respawn wrapper for interactive launches, exit cleanly on terminal loss, and refuse to restore heartbeat sessions as the remembered chat session, preventing stale heartbeat history and orphaned `openclaw-tui` processes on first boot. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Doctor/sessions: move heartbeat-poisoned default main session store entries to recovery keys and clear stale TUI restore pointers, so `doctor --fix` can repair instances already stuck on `agent:main:main` heartbeat history. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/context engines: keep hidden OpenClaw runtime-context custom messages out of context-engine assemble, afterTurn, and ingest hooks so transcript reconstruction plugins only see conversation messages. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/compaction: treat visible custom-message, bash, and branch-summary entries as real conversation anchors so safeguard mode does not write empty fallback summaries for cron and split-turn sessions with substantive tool work. Fixes #78300. Thanks @amknight.
+- Network/runtime: avoid importing Undici's package dispatcher during no-proxy timeout bootstrap so external channel plugin fetch requests with explicit Content-Length keep working. Fixes #78007. Thanks @shakkernerd.
+- Gateway/shutdown: cancel delayed post-ready maintenance during close and suppress maintenance/cron startup after quick restarts, preventing orphaned background timers. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/TTS: send media-bearing block replies directly when block streaming is off, so agent `tts` tool audio attached to a final text reply is delivered instead of being consumed before final Telegram/media delivery. Thanks @Conan-Scott.
+- Agents/generated media: treat attachment-style message tool actions as completed chat sends, preventing duplicate fallback media posts when generated files were already uploaded.
+- Control UI/sessions: show each session's agent runtime in the Sessions table and allow filtering by runtime labels, matching the Agents panel runtime wording. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Discord/streaming: show live reasoning text in progress drafts instead of a bare `Reasoning` status line.
+- Gateway/status: avoid marking fast repeated health/status samples as event-loop degraded from CPU/utilization alone until the Gateway has accumulated a sustained sampling window. Thanks @shakkernerd.
+- Gateway/performance: reuse the current compatible plugin metadata snapshot across hot read-only status, channel, auth, skills, and embedded agent settings paths, avoiding repeated synchronous plugin metadata scans during Gateway activity. Fixes #77983. Thanks @shakkernerd.
+- Plugins/update: keep installed official npm and ClawHub plugins such as Codex, Discord, WhatsApp, and diagnostics plugins synced during host updates even when disabled or previously exact-pinned, while preserving third-party plugin pins. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Doctor/status: warn when `OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN` would shadow a different active `gateway.auth.token` source for local CLI commands, while avoiding false positives when config points at the same env token. Fixes #74271. Thanks @yelog.
+- Gateway/HTTP: avoid loading managed outgoing-image media handlers for unrelated requests, so disabled OpenAI-compatible routes return 404 without waiting on lazy media sidecars. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Gateway/OpenAI-compatible: send the assistant role SSE chunk as soon as streaming chat-completion headers are accepted, so cold agent setup cannot leave `/v1/chat/completions` clients with a bodyless 200 response until their idle timeout fires.
+- Agents/media: avoid direct generated-media completion fallback while the announce-agent run is still pending, so async video and music completions do not duplicate raw media messages. (#77754)
+- WebChat/Codex media: stage Codex app-server generated local images into managed media before Gateway display, so Codex-home image paths no longer hit `LocalMediaAccessError` while keeping Codex home out of the display allowlist. Thanks @frankekn.
+- Plugins/update: repair plugin-local `openclaw` peer links for all recorded npm plugins after any npm update mutates the shared managed npm tree, so targeted or batch updates cannot leave Codex, Discord, or Brave with pruned SDK imports. (#77787) Thanks @ProspectOre.
+- Codex harness: honor `models.providers.openai-codex.models[].contextTokens` for native `openai/*` Codex runtime runs and `/status` context reporting, so subscription-backed Codex agents use the configured OAuth context cap without inflating past the runtime model window. Fixes #77858. Thanks @lilesjtu.
+- Sessions cleanup: add `openclaw sessions cleanup --fix-dm-scope` so operators who return `session.dmScope` to `main` can dry-run and retire stale direct-DM session rows while preserving transcripts as deleted archives. Fixes #47561 and #45554. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- TUI/sessions: bound the session picker to recent rows and use exact lookup-style refreshes for the active session, so dusty stores no longer make TUI hydrate weeks-old transcripts before becoming responsive. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Doctor/gateway: report recent supervisor restart handoffs in `openclaw doctor --deep`, using the installed service environment when available so service-managed clean exits are visible in guided diagnostics. Thanks @shakkernerd.
+- Gateway/status: show recent supervisor restart handoffs in `openclaw gateway status --deep`, including JSON details, so clean service-managed restarts are reported as restart handoffs instead of opaque stopped-service diagnostics. Thanks @shakkernerd.
+- Providers/Fireworks: expose Kimi models as thinking-off-only and keep K2.5/K2.6 requests on `thinking: disabled`, so manual model switches do not send Fireworks-rejected `reasoning*` parameters. Refs #74289. Thanks @frankekn.
+- WhatsApp responsiveness: stop only verified stale local TUI clients when they degrade the Gateway event loop and delay replies. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Hooks/session-memory: add collision suffixes to fallback memory filenames so repeated `/new` or `/reset` captures in the same minute do not overwrite the earlier session archive. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/config: remove the ambiguous legacy `main` agent dir helper from runtime paths; model, auth, gateway, bundled plugin, and test helpers now resolve default/session agent dirs through `agents.list`/agent-scope helpers while plugin SDK keeps a deprecated compatibility export.
+- CLI/status: show the selected agent runtime/harness in `openclaw status` session rows so terminal status matches the `/status` runtime line. Thanks @vincentkoc.

+- Doctor/Codex: repair legacy `openai-codex/*` routes in primary models, fallbacks, heartbeat/subagent/compaction overrides, hooks, channel overrides, and stale session pins to canonical `openai/*`, selecting `agentRuntime.id: "codex"` only when the Codex plugin is installed, enabled, contributes the `codex` harness, and has usable OAuth; otherwise select `agentRuntime.id: "pi"`. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Video generation: wait up to 20 minutes for slow fal/MiniMax queue-backed jobs, stop forwarding unsupported Google Veo generated-audio options, and normalize MiniMax `720P` requests to its supported `768P` resolution with the usual override warning/details instead of failing fallback.
 - Video generation: accept provider-specific aspect-ratio and resolution hints at the tool boundary, normalize `720P` to MiniMax's supported `768P`, and stop sending Google `generateAudio` on Gemini video requests so provider fallback can recover from model-specific parameter differences. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Channels/durable delivery: preserve channel-specific final reply semantics when using durable sends, including Telegram selected quotes and silent error replies plus WhatsApp message-sending cancellations.
+- Channels/message lifecycle: build legacy channel delivery results from message receipts and add receipts to BlueBubbles, Feishu, Google Chat, iMessage, IRC, LINE, Nextcloud Talk, QQ Bot, Signal, Synology Chat, Tlon, Twitch, WhatsApp, Zalo, and Zalo Personal send results and owner-path reply delivery plus Discord, Matrix, Mattermost, Slack, and Teams send results while preserving existing message id compatibility.
+- iMessage: run durable final replies through the iMessage outbound sanitizer before sending, matching direct auto-reply delivery and preventing assistant-internal scaffolding from leaking through queued delivery.
 - OpenAI/Google Meet: fail realtime voice connection attempts when the socket closes before `session.updated`, avoiding stuck Meet joins waiting on a bridge that never became ready. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Hooks/session-memory: run reset memory capture off the command reply path and make model-generated memory filename slugs opt-in with `llmSlug: true`, so `/new` and `/reset` no longer block WhatsApp and other message-channel reset replies on hook housekeeping or a nested model call. Thanks @vincentkoc.

+- Gateway/model catalog: cache empty read-only model catalog results until reload, so TUI and control-plane refresh loops cannot hammer plugin metadata reads when no usable models are currently discovered. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- CLI/update: make dev-channel preflight lint opt-in and constrained when enabled, so `openclaw update --channel dev` no longer walks back otherwise-good main commits when Ubuntu hosts OOM-kill or fail parallel oxlint shards. Thanks @vincentkoc.

+### Changes
+
+- Security/tools: configured tool sections (`tools.exec`, `tools.fs`) no longer implicitly widen restrictive profiles (`messaging`, `minimal`). Users who need those tools under a restricted profile must add explicit `alsoAllow` entries; a startup warning identifies affected configs. Fixes #47487. Thanks @amknight.
+- Gateway/SDK: add SDK-facing artifact list/get/download RPCs and App SDK helpers with transcript provenance and download-source guardrails. Refs #74706. Thanks @tmimmanuel.
+- Agents/commitments: add opt-in inferred follow-up commitments with hidden batched extraction, per-agent/per-channel scoping, heartbeat delivery, CLI management, a simple `commitments.enabled`/`commitments.maxPerDay` config, and heartbeat-interval due-time clamping so magical check-ins do not echo immediately. (#74189) Thanks @vignesh07.
+- Messages/queue: make `steer` drain all pending Pi steering messages at the next model boundary, keep legacy one-at-a-time steering as `queue`, and add a dedicated steering queue docs page. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Messages/queue: default active-run queueing to `steer` with a 500ms followup fallback debounce, and document the queue modes, precedence, and drop policies on the command queue page. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Messages: add global `messages.visibleReplies` so operators can require visible output to go through `message(action=send)` for any source chat, while `messages.groupChat.visibleReplies` stays available as the group/channel override. Thanks @scoootscooob.
+- Gateway/events: surface `spawnedBy` on subagent chat and agent broadcast payloads so clients can route child session events without an extra session lookup. (#63244) Thanks @samzong.
+- Gateway/SDK: add read-only `environments.list` and `environments.status` RPCs so app clients can discover Gateway-local and node environment candidates without enabling provisioning. (#74708) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Memory/wiki: add agent-facing people wiki metadata, canonical aliases, person cards, relationship graphs, privacy/provenance reports, evidence-kind drilldown, and search modes for person lookup, question routing, source evidence, and raw claims. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Active Memory: add optional per-conversation `allowedChatIds` and `deniedChatIds` filters so operators can enable recall only for selected direct, group, or channel conversations while keeping broad sessions skipped. (#67977) Thanks @quengh.
+- Active Memory: return bounded partial recall summaries when the hidden memory sub-agent times out, including the default temporary-transcript path, so useful recovered context is not discarded. (#73219) Thanks @joeykrug.
+- Gateway/memory: add a read-only `doctor.memory.remHarness` RPC so operator clients can preview bounded REM dreaming output without running mutation paths. (#66673) Thanks @samzong.
+- Providers/NVIDIA: add the NVIDIA provider with API-key onboarding, setup docs, static catalog metadata, and literal model-ref picker support so NVIDIA hosted models can be selected with their provider prefix intact. (#71204) Thanks @eleqtrizit.
+- Models: suppress explicitly configured openai-codex/gpt-5.4-mini inline entries so a stale models config written by `openclaw doctor --fix` cannot bypass the manifest capability block and cause repeated assistant-turn failures when the runtime switches to that model on ChatGPT-backed Codex accounts. Conditional suppressions (e.g. qwen Coding Plan endpoint guards) remain bypassable by explicit user configuration. (#74451) Thanks @0xCyda, @hclsys, and @Marvae.
+- Added SQLite-backed plugin state store (`api.runtime.state.openKeyedStore`) for restart-safe keyed registries with TTL, eviction, and automatic plugin isolation. Thanks @amknight.
+- Plugin SDK: mark remaining legacy alias exports and diffs tool/config aliases with deprecation metadata, and add a guard so future legacy alias comments require `@deprecated` tags. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- CLI/QR/dependencies: internalize small terminal progress and QR wrapper helpers while keeping the real QR encoder dependency direct, reducing the default runtime dependency graph without changing QR output behavior. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Dependencies: refresh workspace runtime, plugin, and tooling packages, including ACP, Pi, AWS SDK, TypeBox, pnpm, oxlint, oxfmt, jsdom, pdfjs, ciao, and tokenjuice, while keeping patched ACP behavior and lint gates current. Thanks @mariozechner.
+- Gateway/dev: run `pnpm gateway:watch` through a named tmux session by default, with `gateway:watch:raw` and `OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_WATCH_TMUX=0` for foreground mode, so repeated starts respawn an inspectable watcher without trapping the invoking agent shell. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Gateway/diagnostics: emit an opt-in startup diagnostics timeline that records gateway lifecycle and plugin-load phases behind a config flag, so slow-start diagnosis no longer requires bespoke instrumentation. Thanks @shakkernerd.
+- Control UI/i18n: extend the locale registry with new Persian (fa), Dutch (nl), Vietnamese (vi), Italian (it), Arabic (ar), and Thai (th) entries and ship `fa`, `nl`, `vi`, and `zh-TW` docs glossaries, so the docs translation pipeline and the Control UI language picker stay aligned across surfaces.

+- Channels: add Yuanbao channel docs entrance so the Tencent Yuanbao bot appears in the channel listing and sidebar navigation. (#73443) Thanks @loongfay.
+- Channels/Yuanbao: update plugin GitHub location to YuanbaoTeam/yuanbao-openclaw-plugin and add "yuanbao" alias to channel catalog. (#74253) Thanks @loongfay.
+- Docker setup: add `OPENCLAW_SKIP_ONBOARDING` so automated Docker installs can skip the interactive onboarding step while still applying gateway defaults. (#55518) Thanks @jinjimz.
+- Security policy: classify media/base64 decode and format-conversion overhead after configured acceptance limits as performance-only for GHSA triage unless a report demonstrates a limit bypass, crash, exhaustion, data exposure, or another boundary bypass. (#74311)
+- Security/OpenGrep: add a precise OpenGrep rulepack, source-rule compiler, provenance metadata check, and PR/full scan workflows that validate first-party code and rulepack-only changes while uploading SARIF to GitHub Code Scanning. (#69483) Thanks @jesse-merhi.
