-- Do not delete or rename files.
-- Do not change production code, tests, package metadata, generated baselines, lockfiles, or CI config.
-- Keep changes minimal and factual.

-
-Allowed paths:

-- `docs/**`
-- `README.md`
-- `CHANGELOG.md`
-
-Required workflow:

-2. Inspect the triggering event via `$GITHUB_EVENT_PATH`, then review `$DOCS_AGENT_BASE_SHA..$DOCS_AGENT_HEAD_SHA` and its changed files. If either env var is missing, fall back to the event payload.
-3. Update stale existing documentation, if needed.
-4. Run `pnpm check:docs` if dependencies are available.
-5. Leave the worktree clean if no docs need changes.
-
-If `pnpm docs:check-mdx` or `pnpm check:docs` reports MDX parse errors, fix only the syntax needed for the listed existing docs files. Preserve prose meaning, frontmatter, code fences, and links; do not broadly rewrite translated or source content while repairing parser failures.

-# OpenClaw Test Performance Agent
-
-You are maintaining OpenClaw test performance after a trusted main-branch CI run.
-
-Goal: inspect the full-suite test performance report, then make small, coverage-preserving improvements to slow tests when the fix is clear. If the baseline report shows failing tests and the fix is obvious, fix those too.
-
-Inputs:
-
-- Baseline grouped report: `.artifacts/test-perf/baseline-before.json`
-- Per-config Vitest JSON reports: `.artifacts/test-perf/baseline-before/vitest-json/`
-- Per-config logs: `.artifacts/test-perf/baseline-before/logs/`
-
-Hard limits:
-
-- Preserve test coverage and behavioral intent.
-- Do not delete, skip, weaken, or narrow test cases to make the suite faster.
-- Do not add `test.skip`, `it.skip`, `describe.skip`, `test.only`, `it.only`, or `describe.only`.
-- Do not update snapshots, generated baselines, inventories, ignore files, lockfiles, package metadata, CI workflows, or release metadata.
-- Do not add dependencies.
-- Do not create, delete, or rename files.
-- Do not do broad refactors or style-only rewrites.
-- Keep changes minimal and focused on the slow or failing tests you can justify from the report.
-- Prefer no edit when a performance improvement is speculative.
-- If `.artifacts/test-perf/baseline-before.json` has `"failed": true`, do not make performance-only edits. First inspect the failed config logs. Edit only when the test failure has an obvious, coverage-preserving fix. If no obvious failure fix exists, leave the worktree clean.
-
-Good fixes:
-
-- Replace broad partial module mocks, especially `importOriginal()` mocks, with narrow injected dependencies or local runtime seams.
-- Avoid importing heavy barrels in hot tests when a narrow module or helper covers the same behavior.
-- Add or adjust a production lazy/injection seam only when that is the narrowest way to preserve coverage while removing expensive imports or fixing an obvious mock/import failure.
-- Move expensive setup from per-test hooks to shared setup only when state isolation remains correct.
-- Reuse existing fixtures/builders instead of recreating expensive work per case.
-- Mock expensive runtime boundaries directly: filesystem crawls, package registries, provider SDKs, network/process launch, browser/runtime scanners.
-- Keep one integration smoke per boundary and test pure helpers directly, but only when the same behavior remains covered.
-
-Required workflow:
-
-1. Run `pnpm docs:list` if available, then read `docs/reference/test.md` and `docs/help/testing.md` sections about test performance.
-2. Inspect `.artifacts/test-perf/baseline-before.json`. If `failed` is true, inspect the failed config logs before looking at slow files.
-3. Pick at most a few low-risk files. When baseline failed, pick only files needed for the obvious failure fix; otherwise focus on the slowest files/configs. Explain the coverage-preserving reason in comments only if the code would otherwise be unclear.
-4. Run targeted tests for changed files where possible. Use `pnpm test <path>` and optionally `pnpm test:perf:imports <path>`.
-5. Leave the worktree clean if no safe improvement exists.
-
-When uncertain, make no edit and explain the uncertainty in the final message.

 ## Start
 
 - Repo: `https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw`
-- Replies: repo-root refs only: `extensions/telegram/src/index.ts:80`. No absolute paths, no `~/`.
-- 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.
-- 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.
+- Replies: repo-root file refs only, e.g. `extensions/telegram/src/index.ts:80`. No absolute paths, no `~/`.
+- CODEOWNERS: maintenance/refactors/tests are ok. For larger behavior, product, security, or ownership-sensitive changes, get a listed owner request/review first.
+- First pass: run docs list (`pnpm docs:list`; ignore if unavailable), then read only relevant docs/guides.
+- Missing deps: run `pnpm install`, rerun once, then report first actionable error.
+- Use "plugin/plugins" in docs/UI/changelog. `extensions/` remains internal workspace layout.
+- Add channel/plugin/app/doc surface: update `.github/labeler.yml` and matching GitHub labels.
+- New `AGENTS.md`: add sibling `CLAUDE.md` symlink to it.

 ## Architecture
 
-- 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.
-- Legacy config repair: doctor/fix paths, not startup/load-time core migrations.
-- Core test asserting extension-specific behavior: move to owner extension or generic contract test.
+- Core must stay extension-agnostic. No core special cases for bundled plugin/provider/channel ids when manifest/registry/capability contracts can express it.
+- Extensions cross into core only via `openclaw/plugin-sdk/*`, manifest metadata, injected runtime helpers, and documented local barrels (`api.ts`, `runtime-api.ts`).
+- Extension production code must not import core `src/**`, `src/plugin-sdk-internal/**`, another extension's `src/**`, or relative paths outside its package.
+- Core code/tests must not deep-import plugin internals (`extensions/*/src/**`, `onboard.js`). Use plugin `api.ts` / public SDK facade / generic contract.
+- Extension-owned behavior stays in the extension: legacy repair, detection, onboarding, auth/provider defaults, provider tools/settings.
+- Legacy config repair: prefer doctor/fix paths over startup/load-time core migrations.
+- If a core test asserts extension-specific behavior, move it to the owning extension or a 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.
-- Gateway protocol changes: additive first; incompatible needs versioning/docs/client follow-through.
-- 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.

 ## Commands
 
-- Runtime: Node 22+. Keep Node + Bun paths working.
-- Install: `pnpm install` (keep Bun lock/patches aligned if touched).
-- CLI: `pnpm openclaw ...` or `pnpm dev`; build: `pnpm build`.
-- 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>`.
-- Targeted tests: `pnpm test <path-or-filter> [vitest args...]`; never raw `vitest`.
-- Typecheck: `tsgo` lanes only (`pnpm tsgo*`, `pnpm check:test-types`); do not add `tsc --noEmit`, `typecheck`, `check:types`.
-- Format/lint: `pnpm format:check`/`pnpm format`; `pnpm lint*` lanes.
-- Heavy checks: `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK=1`, mode `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK_MODE=throttled|full`; CI/shared use `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK=0`.
-- Local first. Use repo `pnpm` lanes before Blacksmith/Testbox. Remote only for parity-only failures, secrets/services, or explicit ask.
-
-## GitHub / CI
-
-- Triage: list first, hydrate few. Use bounded `gh --json --jq`; avoid repeated full comment scans.
-- Search/dedupe: prefer `gh search issues 'repo:openclaw/openclaw is:open <terms>' --json number,title,state,updatedAt --limit 20`.
-- 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.
-- GH comments with markdown backticks, `$`, or shell snippets: avoid inline double-quoted `--body`; use single quotes or `--body-file`.
-- 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.
-- 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}'`.
-- 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.
+- Runtime: Node 22+. Keep Node and Bun paths working.
+- Install: `pnpm install` (Bun supported; keep lockfiles/patches aligned if touched).
+- Dev CLI: `pnpm openclaw ...` or `pnpm dev`.
+- Build: `pnpm build`
+- Smart local gate: `pnpm check:changed` (scoped typecheck/lint/guards + relevant tests)
+- Explain smart gate: `pnpm changed:lanes --json`
+- Pre-commit view: `pnpm check:changed --staged`
+- Normal full prod sweep: `pnpm check` (prod typecheck/lint/guards, no tests)
+- Full tests: `pnpm test`
+- Changed tests only: `pnpm test:changed`
+- Local serial loop: `pnpm test:serial`
+- Extension tests: `pnpm test:extensions` or `pnpm test extensions` = all extension shards; `pnpm test extensions/<id>` = one extension lane. Heavy channels/OpenAI have dedicated shards.
+- Shard timing artifact: `.artifacts/vitest-shard-timings.json`; auto-used for balanced shard ordering. Disable with `OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_TIMINGS=0`.
+- Targeted tests: `pnpm test <path-or-filter> [vitest args...]`; do not call raw `vitest`.
+- Coverage: `pnpm test:coverage`
+- Format check/fix: `pnpm format:check` / `pnpm format`
+- Typecheck:
+  - `pnpm tsgo`: fastest core prod graph
+  - `pnpm tsgo:prod`: core + extensions prod graphs; used by `pnpm check`
+  - `pnpm check:test-types` / `pnpm tsgo:test`: all test graphs
+  - `pnpm tsgo:all`: all prod + test project refs
+  - Debug slices exist; do not present as normal user flow.
+  - Profile: `pnpm tsgo:profile [core-test|extensions-test|--all]`
+- Type policy: use `tsgo`; do not add `tsc --noEmit`, `typecheck`, or `check:types` lanes. `tsc` only for declaration/package-boundary emit gaps.
+- Lint:
+  - `pnpm lint`: core/extensions/scripts shards
+  - `pnpm lint:core`, `pnpm lint:extensions`, `pnpm lint:scripts`
+  - `pnpm lint:apps`: Swift/app surface, separate from TS lint
+  - `pnpm lint:all`: legacy comparison lane
+- Local heavy-check behavior: `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK=1` default; `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK_MODE=throttled|full`; `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK=0` for CI/shared runs.
+- Local validation is local-first. Do not default to Blacksmith/Testbox for routine OpenClaw iteration; it burns warm caches and startup time. Use repo `pnpm` lanes first, then reach for remote CI/Testbox only for parity-only failures, secrets/services, or when explicitly requested.
 
 ## Gates
 
-- Pre-commit hook: staged formatting only. Validation explicit.
+- Pre-commit hook: staged format/lint, then `pnpm check:changed --staged`; docs/markdown-only skips changed-scope check; `FAST_COMMIT=1` skips changed-scope check only.

-  - public SDK/plugin contract: extension prod/test too
-  - unknown root/config: all lanes
-- Before handoff/push: `pnpm check:changed`. Tests-only: `pnpm test:changed`. Full prod sweep: `pnpm check`.
-- Landing on `main`: verify touched surface near landing. Default feasible bar: `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.

 ## Tests
 
-- Vitest. Colocated `*.test.ts`; e2e `*.e2e.test.ts`; example models `sonnet-4.6`, `gpt-5.4`.
-- Clean timers/env/globals/mocks/sockets/temp dirs/module state; `--isolate=false` safe.
-- Hot tests: avoid per-test `vi.resetModules()` + heavy imports. Measure with `pnpm test:perf:imports <file>` / `pnpm test:perf:hotspots --limit N`.
-- Seam depth: pure helper/contract unit tests; one integration smoke per boundary.
-- Mock expensive seams directly: scanners, manifests, registries, fs crawls, provider SDKs, network/process launch.
-- Prefer injection; if module mocking, mock narrow local `*.runtime.ts`, not broad barrels or `openclaw/plugin-sdk/*`.
-- Share fixtures/builders; delete duplicate assertions; assert behavior that can regress here.
-- Do not edit baseline/inventory/ignore/snapshot/expected-failure files to silence checks without explicit approval.
-- Test workers max 16. Memory pressure: `OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 pnpm test`.
-- Live: `OPENCLAW_LIVE_TEST=1 pnpm test:live`; verbose `OPENCLAW_LIVE_TEST_QUIET=0`.
-- Guide: `docs/help/testing.md`.

+- Example models in tests: `sonnet-4.6`, `gpt-5.4`.
+- Clean up timers/env/globals/mocks/sockets/temp dirs/module state; `--isolate=false` must stay safe.
+- Hot tests: avoid per-test `vi.resetModules()` + fresh heavy imports; prefer static or `beforeAll` imports and reset state directly.

+- Delete duplicate assertions when another test owns the boundary; assert only the behavior that can regress here.
+- Avoid broad `importOriginal()` / broad `openclaw/plugin-sdk/*` partial mocks in hot tests. Add narrow local `*.runtime.ts` seam and mock it.
+- Use existing deps/callback/runtime injection seams before module mocks.
+- Import-dominated test time is a boundary smell; shrink import surface before adding cases.
+- Replacing slow integration coverage: extract production composition into a named helper and test that helper.

 OpenClaw has an extensive plugin API.
 Core stays lean; optional capability should usually ship as plugins.
-We are generally slimming down core while expanding what plugins can do.
-If a useful feature cannot be built as a plugin yet, we welcome PRs and design discussions that extend the plugin API instead of adding one-off core behavior.
-
-There are two broad plugin styles:
-
-- Code plugins run OpenClaw plugin code and are appropriate for deeper runtime extension.
-- Bundle-style plugins package stable external surfaces such as skills, MCP servers, and related configuration.
-
-Prefer bundle-style plugins when they can express the capability.
-They have a smaller, more stable interface and better security boundaries.
-Use code plugins when the capability needs runtime hooks, providers, channels, tools, or other in-process extension points.
 
 Preferred plugin path is npm package distribution plus local extension loading for development.
 If you build a plugin, host and maintain it in your own repository.
 The bar for adding optional plugins to core is intentionally high.

-<h3>Changes</h3>
-<ul>
-<li>Providers/xAI: add image generation, text-to-speech, and speech-to-text support, including <code>grok-imagine-image</code> / <code>grok-imagine-image-pro</code>, reference-image edits, six live xAI voices, MP3/WAV/PCM/G.711 TTS formats, <code>grok-stt</code> audio transcription, and xAI realtime transcription for Voice Call streaming. (#68694) Thanks @KateWilkins.</li>
-<li>Providers/STT: add Voice Call streaming transcription for Deepgram, ElevenLabs, and Mistral, alongside the existing OpenAI and xAI realtime STT paths; ElevenLabs also gains Scribe v2 batch audio transcription for inbound media.</li>
-<li>TUI: add local embedded mode for running terminal chats without a Gateway while keeping plugin approval gates enforced. (#66767) Thanks @fuller-stack-dev.</li>
-<li>Onboarding: auto-install missing provider and channel plugins during setup so first-run configuration can complete without manual plugin recovery.</li>
-<li>OpenAI/Responses: use OpenAI's native <code>web_search</code> tool automatically for direct OpenAI Responses models when web search is enabled and no managed search provider is pinned; explicit providers such as Brave keep the managed <code>web_search</code> tool.</li>
-<li>Models/commands: add <code>/models add <provider> <modelId></code> so you can register a model from chat and use it without restarting the gateway; keep <code>/models</code> as a simple provider browser while adding clearer add guidance and copy-friendly command examples. (#70211) Thanks @Takhoffman.</li>
-<li>WhatsApp: add configurable native reply quoting with replyToMode for WhatsApp conversations. Thanks @mcaxtr.</li>
-<li>WhatsApp/groups+direct: forward per-group and per-direct <code>systemPrompt</code> config into inbound context <code>GroupSystemPrompt</code> so configured per-chat behavioral instructions are injected on every turn. Supports <code>"*"</code> wildcard fallback and account-scoped overrides under <code>channels.whatsapp.accounts.<id>.{groups,direct}</code>; account maps fully replace root maps (no deep merge), matching the existing <code>requireMention</code> pattern. Closes #7011. (#59553) Thanks @Bluetegu.</li>
-<li>Agents/sessions: add mailbox-style <code>sessions_list</code> filters for label, agent, and search plus visibility-scoped derived title and last-message previews. (#69839) Thanks @dangoZhang.</li>
-<li>Control UI/settings+chat: add a browser-local personal identity for the operator (name plus local-safe avatar), route user identity rendering through the shared chat/avatar path used by assistant and agent surfaces, and tighten Quick Settings, agent fallback chips, and narrow-screen chat layouts so personalization no longer wastes space or clips controls. (#70362) Thanks @BunsDev.</li>
-<li>Gateway/diagnostics: enable payload-free stability recording by default and add a support-ready diagnostics export with sanitized logs, status, health, config, and stability snapshots for bug reports. (#70324) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
-<li>Providers/Tencent: add the bundled Tencent Cloud provider plugin with TokenHub onboarding, docs, <code>hy3-preview</code> model catalog entries, and tiered Hy3 pricing metadata. (#68460) Thanks @JuniperSling.</li>
-<li>Providers/Amazon Bedrock Mantle: add Claude Opus 4.7 through Mantle's Anthropic Messages route with provider-owned bearer-auth streaming, so the model is actually callable without treating AWS bearer tokens like Anthropic API keys. Thanks @wirjo.</li>
-<li>Providers/GPT-5: move the GPT-5 prompt overlay into the shared provider runtime so compatible GPT-5 models receive the same behavior and heartbeat guidance through OpenAI, OpenRouter, OpenCode, Codex, and other GPT providers; add <code>agents.defaults.promptOverlays.gpt5.personality</code> as the global friendly-style toggle while keeping the OpenAI plugin setting as a fallback.</li>
-<li>Providers/OpenAI Codex: remove the Codex CLI auth import path from onboarding and provider discovery so OpenClaw no longer copies <code>~/.codex</code> OAuth material into agent auth stores; use browser login or device pairing instead. (#70390) Thanks @pashpashpash.</li>
-<li>CLI/Claude: default <code>claude-cli</code> runs to warm stdio sessions, including custom configs that omit transport fields, and resume from the stored Claude session after Gateway restarts or idle exits. (#69679) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
-<li>Pi/models: update the bundled pi packages to <code>0.68.1</code> and let the OpenCode Go catalog come from pi instead of plugin-maintained model aliases, adding the refreshed <code>opencode-go/kimi-k2.6</code>, Qwen, GLM, MiMo, and MiniMax entries.</li>
-<li>Tokenjuice: add bundled native OpenClaw support for tokenjuice as an opt-in plugin that compacts noisy <code>exec</code> and <code>bash</code> tool results in Pi embedded runs. (#69946) Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>ACPX: add an explicit <code>openClawToolsMcpBridge</code> option that injects a core OpenClaw MCP server for selected built-in tools, starting with <code>cron</code>.</li>
-<li>CLI/doctor plugins: lazy-load doctor plugin paths and prefer installed plugin <code>dist/*</code> runtime entries over source-adjacent JavaScript fallbacks, reducing the measured <code>doctor --non-interactive</code> runtime by about 74% while keeping cold doctor startup on built plugin artifacts. (#69840) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
-<li>CLI/debugging: add an opt-in temporary debug timing helper for local CLI performance investigations, with readable stderr output, JSONL capture, and docs for removing probes before landing fixes. (#70469) Thanks @shakkernerd.</li>
-<li>Docs/i18n: add Thai translation support for the docs site.</li>
-<li>Providers/OpenAI-compatible: mark known local backends such as vLLM, SGLang, llama.cpp, LM Studio, LocalAI, Jan, TabbyAPI, and text-generation-webui as streaming-usage compatible, so their token accounting no longer degrades to unknown/stale totals. (#68711) Thanks @gaineyllc.</li>
-<li>Providers/OpenAI-compatible: recover streamed token usage from llama.cpp-style <code>timings.prompt_n</code> / <code>timings.predicted_n</code> metadata and sanitize usage counts before accumulation, fixing unknown or stale totals when compatible servers do not emit an OpenAI-shaped <code>usage</code> object. (#41056) Thanks @xaeon2026.</li>
-<li>Plugins/startup: prefer native Jiti loading for built bundled plugin dist modules on supported runtimes, cutting measured bundled plugin load time by 82-90% while keeping source TypeScript on the transform path. (#69925) Thanks @aauren.</li>
-<li>Plugin SDK/STT: share realtime transcription WebSocket transport and multipart batch transcription form helpers across bundled STT providers, reducing provider plugin boilerplate while preserving proxy capture, reconnects, audio queueing, close flushing, upload filename normalization, and ready handshakes.</li>
-<li>Plugin SDK/Pi embedded runs: add a bundled-plugin embedded extension factory seam so native plugins can extend Pi embedded runs with async runtime hooks such as <code>tool_result</code> handling instead of falling back to the older synchronous persistence path. (#69946) Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Codex harness/hooks: route native Codex app-server turns through <code>before_prompt_build</code> and emit <code>before_compaction</code> / <code>after_compaction</code> for native compaction items so prompt and compaction hooks stop drifting from Pi. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Codex harness/plugins: add a bundled-plugin Codex app-server extension seam for async <code>tool_result</code> middleware, fire <code>after_tool_call</code> for Codex tool runs, and route mirrored Codex transcript writes through <code>before_message_write</code> so tool integrations stop diverging from Pi. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Codex harness/hooks: fire <code>llm_input</code>, <code>llm_output</code>, and <code>agent_end</code> for native Codex app-server turns so lifecycle hooks stop drifting from Pi. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>QA/Telegram: record per-scenario reply RTT in the live Telegram QA report and summary, starting with the canary response. (#70550) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
-<li>Status: add an explicit <code>Runner:</code> field to <code>/status</code> so sessions now report whether they are running on embedded Pi, a CLI-backed provider, or an ACP harness agent/backend such as <code>codex (acp/acpx)</code> or <code>gemini (acp/acpx)</code>. (#70595)</li>
-</ul>
-<h3>Fixes</h3>
-<ul>
-<li>Thinking defaults/status: raise the implicit default thinking level for reasoning-capable models from legacy <code>off</code>/<code>low</code> fallback behavior to a safe provider-supported <code>medium</code> equivalent when no explicit config default is set, preserve configured-model reasoning metadata when runtime catalog loading is empty, and make <code>/status</code> report the same resolved default as runtime.</li>
-<li>Gateway/model pricing: fetch OpenRouter and LiteLLM pricing asynchronously at startup and extend catalog fetch timeouts to 30 seconds, reducing noisy timeout warnings during slow upstream responses.</li>
-<li>Agents/sessions: keep daily reset and idle-maintenance bookkeeping from bumping session activity or pruning freshly active routes, so active conversations no longer look newer or disappear for maintenance-only updates.</li>
-<li>Plugins/install: add newly installed plugin ids to an existing <code>plugins.allow</code> list before enabling them, so allowlisted configs load installed plugins after restart.</li>
-<li>Status: show <code>Fast</code> in <code>/status</code> when fast mode is enabled, including config/default-derived fast mode, and omit it when disabled.</li>
-<li>OpenAI/image generation: detect Azure OpenAI-style image endpoints, use Azure <code>api-key</code> auth plus deployment-scoped image URLs, honor <code>AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION</code>, and document the Azure setup path so image generation and edits work against Azure-hosted OpenAI resources. (#70570) Thanks @zhanggpcsu.</li>
-<li>Telegram/forum topics: cache recovered forum metadata with bounded expiry so supergroup updates no longer need repeated <code>getChat</code> lookups before topic routing.</li>
-<li>Onboarding/WeCom: show the official WeCom channel plugin with its native Enterprise WeChat display name and blurb in the external channel catalog.</li>
-<li>Models/auth: merge provider-owned default-model additions from <code>openclaw models auth login</code> instead of replacing <code>agents.defaults.models</code>, so re-authenticating an OAuth provider such as OpenAI Codex no longer wipes other providers' aliases and per-model params. Migrations that must rename keys (Anthropic -> Claude CLI) opt in with <code>replaceDefaultModels</code>. Fixes #69414. (#70435) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
-<li>Media understanding/audio: prefer configured or key-backed STT providers before auto-detected local Whisper CLIs, so installed local transcription tools no longer shadow API providers such as Groq/OpenAI in <code>tools.media.audio</code> auto mode. Fixes #68727.</li>
-<li>Providers/OpenAI: lock the auth picker wording for OpenAI API key, Codex browser login, and Codex device pairing so the setup choices no longer imply a mixed Codex/API-key auth path. (#67848) Thanks @tmlxrd.</li>
-<li>Agents/BTW: route <code>/btw</code> side questions through provider stream registration with the session workspace, so Ollama provider URL construction and workspace-scoped hooks apply correctly. Fixes #68336. (#70413) Thanks @suboss87.</li>
-<li>Agents/sessions: make session transcript write locks non-reentrant by default, so same-process transcript writers contend unless a helper explicitly opts into nested lock ownership.</li>
-<li>ACPX/probe: expose an optional <code>probeAgent</code> plugin config field so the embedded ACP runtime health probe can target a configured agent (for example <code>opencode</code> or <code>claude</code>) instead of hardcoding <code>codex</code>, and stop marking the entire ACP runtime backend unavailable when the default probe agent is simply not installed or not authenticated. (#68409) Thanks @lyfuci.</li>
-<li>Memory search: use sqlite-vec KNN for vector recall while preserving full post-filter result limits in multi-model indexes. Fixes #69666. (#69680) Thanks @aalekh-sarvam.</li>
-<li>Providers/OpenAI Codex: stop stale per-agent <code>openai-codex:default</code> OAuth profiles from shadowing a newer main-agent identity-scoped profile, and let <code>openclaw doctor</code> offer the matching cleanup. (#70393) Thanks @pashpashpash.</li>
-<li>ACPX: route OpenClaw ACP bridge commands through the MCP-free runtime path even when the command is wrapped with <code>env</code>, has bridge flags, or is resumed from persisted session state, so documented <code>acpx openclaw</code> setups no longer fail on per-session MCP injection. (#68741) Thanks @alexlomt.</li>
-<li>Codex harness: route Codex-tagged MCP tool approval elicitations through OpenClaw plugin approvals, including current empty-schema app-server requests, while leaving generic user-input prompts fail-closed. (#68807) Thanks @kesslerio.</li>
-<li>WhatsApp/outbound: hold an in-memory active-delivery claim while a live outbound send is in flight, so a concurrent reconnect drain no longer re-drives the same pending queue entry and duplicates cron sends 7-12x after the 30-minute inbound-silence watchdog fires mid-delivery. Crash-replay of fresh queue entries left behind by a dead process is preserved because the claim is intentionally process-local. Fixes #70386. (#70428) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
-<li>Matrix/commands: keep Matrix DM allowlist state out of room control-command authorization, so trusted DM senders do not accidentally gain room-command access.</li>
-<li>Providers/SDK retry: cap long <code>Retry-After</code> sleeps in Stainless-based Anthropic/OpenAI model SDKs so 60s+ retry windows surface immediately for OpenClaw failover instead of blocking the run. (#68474) Thanks @jetd1.</li>
-<li>Agents/TTS: preserve spoken text in TTS tool results while defusing reply directives in transcript content, so future turns remember voice replies without treating spoken <code>MEDIA:</code> or voice tags as delivery metadata. (#68869) Thanks @zqchris.</li>
-<li>Providers/OpenAI: harden Voice Call realtime transcription against OpenAI Realtime session-update drift, forward language and prompt hints, and add live coverage for realtime STT.</li>
-<li>Agents/Pi embedded runs: suppress the "⚠️ Agent couldn't generate a response" warning when the assistant already delivered user-visible content through a messaging tool and the turn ended cleanly (<code>stopReason=stop</code>). Real failure modes (tool errors, provider <code>stopReason=error</code>, interrupted tool use) still surface the existing "verify before retrying" warning. Fixes #70396. (#70425) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
-<li>Gateway/Linux: wrap gateway-managed supervisor, PTY, MCP stdio, and browser child processes in a tiny <code>/bin/sh</code> shim that raises the child's own <code>oom_score_adj</code> on Linux, so under cgroup memory pressure the kernel prefers transient workers over the long-lived gateway. Opt out with <code>OPENCLAW_CHILD_OOM_SCORE_ADJ=0</code>. Fixes #70404. (#70419) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
-<li>Providers/Moonshot: stop strict-sanitizing Kimi's native tool_call IDs (shaped like <code>functions.<name>:<index></code>) on the OpenAI-compatible transport, so multi-turn agentic flows through Kimi K2.6 no longer break after 2-3 tool-calling rounds when the serving layer fails to match mangled IDs against the original tool definitions. Adds a <code>sanitizeToolCallIds</code> opt-out to the shared <code>openai-compatible</code> replay family helper and wires Moonshot to it. Fixes #62319. (#70030) Thanks @LeoDu0314.</li>
-<li>Dependencies/security: override transitive <code>uuid</code> to <code>14.0.0</code>, clearing the runtime advisory across dependencies.</li>
-<li>Codex harness: ignore dynamic tool descriptions when deciding whether to reuse a native app-server thread while still fingerprinting tool schemas, so channel-specific copy changes no longer reset otherwise compatible Codex conversations. (#69976) Thanks @chen-zhang-cs-code.</li>
-<li>Codex harness: expose the Codex app-server model catalog in <code>models list/status</code>, avoid startup hangs from app-server discovery timeouts, and accept current Codex turn-completion notifications so Docker live gateway turns finish reliably.</li>
-<li>Codex harness: drop invalid legacy app-server <code>serviceTier</code> values such as <code>"priority"</code> before native thread and turn requests, while keeping supported Codex tiers limited to <code>"fast"</code> and <code>"flex"</code>. Fixes #64815.</li>
-<li>Codex harness: show bounded, sanitized permission target samples in app-server approval prompts, so native permission requests keep their specific hosts, roots, and paths visible without leaking home usernames or URL credentials. (#70340) Thanks @Lucenx9.</li>
-<li>Docs/Codex harness: narrow native compaction docs to the current start/completion signals, without promising a readable summary or kept-entry audit list yet. (#69612) Thanks @91wan.</li>
-<li>Providers/Amazon Bedrock: use known context-window metadata for discovered models while keeping the unknown-model fallback conservative, so compaction and overflow handling improve for newer Bedrock models without overstating unlisted model limits. Thanks @wirjo.</li>
-<li>Providers/Amazon Bedrock Mantle: refresh IAM-backed bearer tokens at runtime instead of baking discovery-time tokens into provider config, so long-lived Mantle sessions keep working after the initial token ages out. Thanks @wirjo.</li>
-<li>Config/includes: write through single-file top-level includes for isolated OpenClaw-owned mutations, so <code>plugins install</code> and <code>plugins update</code> update an included <code>plugins.json5</code> file instead of flattening modular <code>$include</code> configs. Fixes #41050 and #66048.</li>
-<li>Config/reload: plan gateway reloads from source-authored config instead of runtime-materialized snapshots, so plugin update writes no longer trigger false restarts from derived provider/plugin config paths. Fixes #68732.</li>
-<li>Plugins/update: skip npm plugin reinstall/config rewrites when the installed version and recorded artifact identity already match the registry target, let bare npm package names resolve back to tracked install records, and point already-installed <code>plugins install</code> attempts at <code>plugins update</code> / <code>--force</code> instead of a hook-pack fallback. Fixes #46955, #67957, and #68073.</li>
-<li>Agents/MCP: keep <code>mcp.servers</code> and bundle MCP tools available in Pi embedded <code>coding</code> and <code>messaging</code> sessions while preserving <code>minimal</code> profile and <code>tools.deny: ["bundle-mcp"]</code> opt-out behavior. Fixes #68875 and #68818.</li>
-<li>Plugins/startup: tolerate transient bundled-channel catalog/metadata drift while auto-enabling configured plugins, so CLI and gateway startup no longer crash when a channel id is known but its display metadata is unavailable.</li>
-<li>CLI/Claude: report CLI-backed reply runs as streaming while Claude/Codex CLI turns are still in flight, so WebChat keeps visible response state until the backend finishes. Fixes #70125.</li>
-<li>Slack/streaming: fall back to normal Slack replies for Slack Connect streams rejected before the SDK flushes its local buffer, so short replies no longer disappear or report success before Slack acknowledges delivery. Fixes #70295. (#70370) Thanks @mvanhorn.</li>
-<li>Codex harness: rotate the shared app-server websocket client when the configured bearer token changes, so auth-token refreshes reconnect with the new <code>Authorization</code> header instead of reusing a stale socket. (#70328) Thanks @Lucenx9.</li>
-<li>Channels/sandbox: derive runtime policy keys for external direct messages that share the main conversation, so sandbox/tool policy no longer treats channel-originated DMs as local main-session runs.</li>
-<li>Config/models: merge provider-scoped model allowlist updates and protect model/provider map writes from accidental full replacement, adding <code>config set --merge</code> for additive updates and <code>--replace</code> for intentional clobbers. Fixes #65920, #68392, and #68653.</li>
-<li>Agents/Pi auth: preserve AWS SDK-authenticated Bedrock runs for IMDS and task-role setups, clear stale refresh timers on sentinel fallback, and log unexpected runtime-auth prep failures instead of silently leaving the provider unauthenticated. Thanks @wirjo.</li>
-<li>Config/gateway: restore last-known-good config on critical clobber signatures such as missing metadata, missing <code>gateway.mode</code>, or sharp size drops, preventing gateway crash loops when a valid backup exists. Fixes #70336.</li>
-<li>Config/gateway: recover configs accidentally prefixed with non-JSON output during gateway startup or <code>openclaw doctor --fix</code>, preserving the clobbered file as a backup while leaving normal config reads read-only.</li>
-<li>Agents/GitHub Copilot: normalize connection-bound Responses item IDs in the Copilot provider wrapper so replayed histories no longer fail after the upstream connection changes. (#69362) Thanks @Menci.</li>
-<li>Pi embedded runs: pass real built-in tools into Pi session creation and then narrow active tool names after custom tool registration, so the runner and compaction paths compile cleanly and keep OpenClaw-managed custom tool allowlists without feeding string arrays into <code>createAgentSession</code>. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Agents/OpenAI websocket: route native OpenAI websocket metadata and session-header decisions through the shared endpoint classifier so local mocks and custom <code>models.providers.openai.baseUrl</code> endpoints stay out of the native OpenAI path consistently across embedded-runner and websocket transport code. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Cron/MCP: retire bundled MCP runtimes through one shared cleanup path for isolated cron run ends, persistent cron session rollover, and direct cron <code>deleteAfterRun</code> fallback cleanup. Fixes #69145, #68623, and #68827.</li>
-<li>MCP/gateway: tear down stdio MCP process trees on transport close and dispose bundled MCP runtimes during session delete/reset, preventing orphaned wrapper/server processes from accumulating. Fixes #68809 and #69465.</li>
-<li>Agents/MCP: retire bundled MCP runtimes after completed one-shot subagent cleanup and nested <code>sessions_send</code> steps, while keeping persistent subagent sessions warm.</li>
-<li>Config: render validation warnings with real line breaks instead of a literal <code>\n</code> sequence in CLI/audit output. Fixes #70140.</li>
-<li>Cron/doctor: repair malformed persisted cron job IDs through <code>openclaw doctor</code>, including legacy <code>jobId</code>, non-string <code>id</code>, and missing <code>id</code> rows, so <code>cron list</code> no longer needs display-layer coercion for corrupt store data. Fixes #70128.</li>
-<li>Discord: normalize prefixed channel targets only at the thread-binding API boundary, so <code>sessions_spawn({ runtime: "acp", thread: true })</code> can create child threads from Discord channels without breaking current-channel ACP bindings. (#68034) Thanks @Zetarcos.</li>
-<li>Discord: harden inbound thread metadata handling against partial Carbon channel getters, so non-command thread messages and queued jobs no longer crash when <code>name</code>, <code>parentId</code>, <code>parent</code>, or <code>ownerId</code> requires fetched raw data.</li>
-<li>Discord: let <code>message</code> tool reactions resolve <code>user:<id></code> DM targets and preserve <code>channels.discord.guilds.<guild>.channels.<channel>.requireMention: false</code> during reply-stage activation fallback. Fixes #70165 and #69441.</li>
-<li>Plugins/startup: pre-normalize and cache Jiti alias maps before creating plugin loaders, so module-scoped loader filenames do not reintroduce per-plugin alias-normalization startup cost. Fixes #70186.</li>
-<li>ACP/Codex: run the bundled Codex ACP harness with an isolated <code>CODEX_HOME</code> and avoid writing incomplete ChatGPT auth bridge files, so Codex ACP sessions no longer clobber the user's real Codex CLI auth. Fixes #70234. Thanks @Lonobers88.</li>
-<li>Gateway/client: keep long-running RPCs such as ACP <code>agent.wait</code> calls in charge of their own timeout instead of closing the websocket on a missed app-level tick while work is still pending.</li>
-<li>Telegram/webhooks: lower the grammY webhook callback timeout to 5s so Telegram gets an early 200 response instead of retrying long-running updates as read timeouts. (#70146) Thanks @friday-james.</li>
-<li>Telegram/polling: rebuild the polling HTTP transport after <code>getUpdates</code> 409 conflicts, so retries use a fresh TCP connection instead of looping on a Telegram-terminated keep-alive socket. (#69873) Thanks @hclsys.</li>
-<li>Media delivery: strip persisted base64 audio payloads from webchat history, resolve stored <code>media://inbound/*</code> attachments before local-root checks, suppress duplicate Telegram voice/audio sends when TTS emits the same media twice, and support custom image-model IDs that already include their provider prefix.</li>
-<li>Slack/files: resolve <code>downloadFile</code> bot tokens from the runtime config when callers provide <code>cfg</code> without an explicit token or prebuilt client, preserving cfg-only file downloads outside the action runtime path. (#70160) Thanks @martingarramon.</li>
-<li>Slack/HTTP: dispatch registered Request URL webhooks through the same handler registry used by Slack monitor setup, so HTTP-mode Slack events no longer 404 after successful route registration. (#70275) Thanks @FroeMic.</li>
-<li>Slack/runtime bindings: route focused Slack thread replies through their bound ACP session instead of preparing replies against the default agent shell. Fixes #67739. Thanks @Frankla20.</li>
-<li>CLI/Claude: keep stored Claude CLI sessions through OAuth refresh-token rotation by keying auth epochs on stable account identity instead of mutable OAuth token material. (#70452) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
-<li>CLI/Claude: verify stored Claude CLI session ids have a readable project transcript before resuming, clearing phantom bindings with <code>reason=transcript-missing</code> instead of silently starting fresh under <code>--resume</code>. Fixes #70177.</li>
-<li>CLI sessions: persist CLI session clearing through the atomic session-store merge path, so expired Claude/Codex CLI bindings are actually removed before retrying without the stale session id. (#70298) Thanks @HFConsultant.</li>
-<li>ACP/sessions_spawn: honor explicit <code>model</code> overrides for ACP child sessions instead of silently falling back to the target agent default model. (#70210) Thanks @felix-miao.</li>
-<li>Diffs/viewer: re-read remote viewer access policy from live runtime config on each request, so toggling <code>plugins.entries.diffs.config.security.allowRemoteViewer</code> closes proxied viewer access immediately instead of waiting for a restart. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Diffs/tooling: re-read <code>viewerBaseUrl</code>, presentation defaults, and viewer access policy from live runtime config, and fail closed when the live <code>diffs</code> plugin entry disappears instead of reviving startup viewer settings. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Memory/LanceDB: stop resurrecting removed live <code>memory-lancedb</code> hook config from startup snapshots, so deleting or disabling the plugin entry shuts off auto-recall and auto-capture without a restart. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Memory/LanceDB: keep auto-recall and auto-capture hooks wired when those settings start disabled, so turning them on in live config starts recall and capture without waiting for a restart. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Skill Workshop: keep the tool plus <code>before_prompt_build</code> / <code>agent_end</code> hooks wired while the plugin is disabled at startup, so turning the plugin back on in live config starts guidance and capture without waiting for a restart. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Active Memory: stop reviving removed live <code>active-memory</code> config from startup snapshots, so removing the plugin entry turns the hook off immediately instead of waiting for a restart. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>GitHub Copilot: re-read plugin discovery config from the live runtime snapshot, so toggling <code>plugins.entries.github-copilot.config.discovery.enabled</code> takes effect without a restart. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Ollama: re-read plugin discovery config from the live runtime snapshot, so toggling <code>plugins.entries.ollama.config.discovery.enabled</code> takes effect without a restart. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>OpenAI: re-read the plugin prompt-overlay personality from live runtime config, so GPT-5 system prompt contributions update without a restart when <code>plugins.entries.openai.config.personality</code> changes. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Amazon Bedrock: re-read live discovery and guardrail plugin config, so toggling <code>plugins.entries.amazon-bedrock.config.discovery</code> or <code>plugins.entries.amazon-bedrock.config.guardrail</code> takes effect without a restart. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Codex: re-read the plugin discovery config from the live runtime snapshot, so toggling <code>plugins.entries.codex.config.discovery</code> takes effect without a restart. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Agents/subagents: drop bare <code>NO_REPLY</code> from the parent turn when the session still has pending spawned children, so direct-conversation surfaces such as Telegram DMs no longer rewrite the sentinel into visible fallback chatter while waiting for the child completion event. (#69942) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
-<li>Plugins/install: keep bundled plugin dependencies off npm install while repairing them when plugins activate from a packaged install, including Feishu/Lark, Browser, and direct bundled channel setup-entry loads.</li>
-<li>CLI/channels: skip and cache bundled channel plugin, setup, and secrets load failures during read-only discovery, so one broken unused bundled channel cannot crash <code>openclaw status</code> or bootstrap secret scans.</li>
-<li>Memory/LanceDB: retry initialization after a failed LanceDB load and report unsupported Intel macOS native runtime clearly instead of caching the failure or repeatedly attempting an install that cannot work.</li>
-<li>CLI/Claude: hash only static extra system prompt parts when deciding whether to reuse a CLI session, so per-message inbound metadata no longer resets Claude CLI conversations on every turn. (#70122) Thanks @zijunl.</li>
-<li>Hooks/Slack: standardize shared message hook routing fields (<code>threadId</code> / <code>replyToId</code>) and stop Slack outbound delivery from re-running <code>message_sending</code> inside the channel adapter, so plugins like thread-ownership make one outbound routing decision per reply. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Auto-reply/media: share one run-scoped reply media context between streamed block delivery and final payload filtering, so a local <code>MEDIA:</code> attachment is staged once and duplicate media sends are suppressed reliably. (#68111) Thanks @ayeshakhalid192007-dev.</li>
-<li>Plugins/gateway hooks: expose startup config, workspace dir, and a live cron getter on the typed <code>gateway_start</code> hook, and move memory-core managed dreaming off the internal <code>gateway:startup</code> bridge so cron reconciliation stays on the public plugin hook path. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Plugins/config: read plugin trust decisions from the source config snapshot when a resolved runtime snapshot is active, so <code>plugins.allow</code> remains enforced and <code>doctor</code>/gateway startup no longer warn that the allowlist is empty when it is configured. Fixes #70161. Also fixes #70141.</li>
-<li>Agents/openai-completions: enable malformed streamed tool-call argument repair for self-hosted OpenAI-compatible backends such as Kimi/SGLang, so fragmented tool-call arguments no longer reach tools as empty or unusable objects. Fixes #69672. (#70294) Thanks @MonkeyLeeT.</li>
-<li>Gateway/restart: preserve group and channel chat context when resuming an agent turn after a Gateway restart, so continuation replies keep the same prompt, routing, and tool-status behavior as the original conversation.</li>
-<li>Gateway/pairing: shared-secret loopback CLI clients now silently auto-approve <code>metadata-upgrade</code> pairing (platform / device family refresh) instead of being disconnected with <code>1008 pairing required</code>. This matches the scope-upgrade and role-upgrade behavior added in #69431 and unblocks non-interactive CLI automation when a paired-device record has a stale platform string (e.g. device key replicated across hosts, install migrated between OSes, or platform-string format changed between OpenClaw versions). Browser / Control-UI clients keep the existing approval-required flow for metadata changes.</li>
-<li>Gateway/pairing: treat any forwarded-header evidence (<code>Forwarded</code>, <code>X-Forwarded-*</code>, or <code>X-Real-IP</code>) as proxied WebSocket traffic before pairing locality checks, so reverse-proxy topologies cannot use the loopback shared-secret helper auto-pairing path.</li>
-<li>Agents/OpenAI: treat exact <code>NO_REPLY</code> assistant output as a deliberate silent reply in embedded runs, so GPT-5.4 turns with signed reasoning plus a silent final no longer surface a false incomplete-turn error.</li>
-<li>Auto-reply/streaming: preserve streamed reply directives through chunk boundaries and phase-aware <code>final_answer</code> delivery, so split <code>MEDIA:<path></code> lines, voice tags, and reply targets reach channel delivery instead of leaking as text or being dropped. (#70243) Thanks @zqchris.</li>
-<li>Anthropic/Claude Opus 4.7: normalize Opus 4.7 and <code>claude-cli</code> Opus 4.7 variants to a 1M context window in resolved runtime metadata and active-agent status/context reporting, so they no longer inherit the stale 200k fallback. Thanks @BunsDev.</li>
-<li>Gateway/pairing webchat: render <code>/pair qr</code> replies as structured media instead of raw markdown text, preserve inline reply threading and silent-control handling on media replies, avoid persisting sensitive QR images into transcript history, and keep local webchat media embedding behind internal-only trust markers. (#70047) Thanks @BunsDev.</li>
-<li>Codex harness: default app-server runs to unchained local execution, so OpenAI heartbeats can use network and shell tools without stalling behind native Codex approvals or the workspace-write sandbox.</li>
-<li>Codex harness: fail closed for unknown native app-server approval methods instead of routing unsupported future approval shapes through OpenClaw approval grants. (#70356) Thanks @Lucenx9.</li>
-<li>Codex harness: apply the GPT-5 behavior and heartbeat prompt overlay to native Codex app-server runs, so <code>codex/gpt-5.x</code> sessions get the same follow-through, tool-use, and proactive heartbeat guidance as OpenAI GPT-5 runs.</li>
-<li>Codex harness: add an explicit Guardian mode for Codex app-server approvals, plus a Docker live probe for approved and ask-back Guardian decisions, while keeping default app-server runs unchained for unattended local heartbeats. The legacy <code>OPENCLAW_CODEX_APP_SERVER_GUARDIAN</code> shortcut is removed; use plugin config <code>appServer.mode: "guardian"</code> or <code>OPENCLAW_CODEX_APP_SERVER_MODE=guardian</code>. Thanks @pashpashpash.</li>
-<li>OpenAI/Responses: keep embedded OpenAI Responses runs on HTTP when <code>models.providers.openai.baseUrl</code> points at a local mock or other non-public endpoint, so mocked/custom endpoints no longer drift onto the hardcoded public websocket transport. (#69815) Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Channels/config: require resolved runtime config on channel send/action/client helpers and block runtime helper <code>loadConfig()</code> calls, so SecretRefs are resolved at startup/boundaries instead of being re-read during sends.</li>
-<li>Discord: pass resolved runtime config through guild and moderation action helpers, so thread-originated Discord commands can run channel, member, role, and guild actions without falling back to runtime config reads. (#70215) Thanks @szponeczek.</li>
-<li>CLI/channels: preserve bundled setup promotion metadata when a loaded partial channel plugin omits it, so adding a non-default account still moves legacy single-account fields such as Telegram <code>streaming</code> into <code>accounts.default</code>.</li>
-<li>Telegram: keep the sent-message ownership cache isolated per configured session store, so own-message reaction filtering remains correct with custom <code>session.store</code> paths.</li>
-<li>Security/update: fail closed when exact pinned npm plugin or hook-pack updates detect integrity drift, and expose aborted plugin drift details in <code>openclaw update --json</code>.</li>
-<li>Ollama: forward OpenClaw thinking control to native <code>/api/chat</code> requests as top-level <code>think</code>, so <code>/think off</code> and <code>openclaw agent --thinking off</code> suppress thinking on models such as qwen3 instead of idling until the watchdog fires. Fixes #69902. (#69967) Thanks @WZH8898.</li>
-<li>Memory-core/dreaming: suppress the startup-only managed dreaming cron unavailable warning when the cron service is still attaching, while preserving the runtime warning if cron genuinely remains unavailable. Fixes #69939. (#69941) Thanks @Sanjays2402.</li>
-<li>Mattermost: suppress reasoning-only payloads even when they arrive as blockquoted <code>> Reasoning:</code> text, preventing <code>/reasoning on</code> from leaking thinking into channel posts. (#69927) Thanks @lawrence3699.</li>
-<li>Discord: read <code>channel.parentId</code> through a safe accessor in the slash-command, reaction, and model-picker paths so partial <code>GuildThreadChannel</code> prototype getters no longer throw <code>Cannot access rawData on partial Channel</code> when commands like <code>/new</code> run from inside a thread. Fixes #69861. (#69908) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
-<li>Discord: use safe channel name and parent accessors across voice command authorization, so <code>/vc</code> commands from partial Discord thread channels no longer crash on Carbon rawData getters. (#70199) Thanks @hanamizuki.</li>
-<li>Discord: make auto-thread parent transcript inheritance opt-in via <code>channels.discord.thread.inheritParent</code>, keeping newly created Discord thread sessions isolated by default while preserving explicit inheritance for configured accounts. Fixes #69907. (#69986) Thanks @Blahdude.</li>
-<li>Browser/Chrome MCP: reset cached existing-session control sessions when a <code>navigate_page</code> call times out, so one stuck navigation no longer poisons the browser profile until a gateway restart. (#69733) Thanks @ayeshakhalid192007-dev.</li>
-<li>Browser/Chrome MCP: propagate click timeouts and abort signals to existing-session actions so a stuck click fails fast and reconnects instead of poisoning the browser tool until gateway restart. (#63524) Thanks @dongseok0.</li>
-<li>Amazon Bedrock/prompt caching: resolve opaque application inference profile targets before injecting Bedrock cache points, require every routed target to support explicit cache points, and retry transient profile lookups instead of caching a false negative for the rest of the process. (#69953) Thanks @anirudhmarc and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Gateway/channel health: base stale-socket recovery on provider-proven transport activity instead of inbound app-event freshness, preventing quiet Slack, Discord, Telegram, Matrix, and local-style channels from being restarted solely because no user traffic arrived. (#69833) Thanks @bek91.</li>
-<li>OpenCode Go: canonicalize stale bundled <code>opencode-go</code> base URLs from <code>/go</code> or <code>/go/v1</code> to <code>/zen/go</code> or <code>/zen/go/v1</code>, so older generated model metadata stops hitting the 404 HTML endpoint. (#69898)</li>
-<li>CLI/channels: honor <code>channels.<id>.enabled=false</code> as a hard read-only presence opt-out, so env vars, manifest env vars, or stale persisted auth state no longer make disabled channel plugins appear in status, doctor, or setup-only discovery.</li>
-<li>Channels/preview streaming: centralize draft-preview finalization so Slack, Discord, Mattermost, and Matrix no longer flush temporary preview messages for media/error finals, and preserve first-reply threading for normal fallback delivery.</li>
-<li>Discord: keep slash command follow-up chunks ephemeral when the command is configured for ephemeral replies, so long <code>/status</code> output no longer leaks fallback model or runtime details into the public channel. (#69869) thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
-<li>Gateway/session history: re-check current auth and <code>chat.history</code> scope before later SSE keepalives and transcript updates, so active session-history streams close before delivering post-revocation events.</li>
-<li>Plugins/discovery: reject package plugin source entries that escape the package directory before explicit runtime entries or inferred built JavaScript peers can be used. (#69868) thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
-<li>CLI/channels: resolve channel presence through a shared policy that keeps ambient env vars and stale persisted auth from surfacing disabled bundled plugins in status, doctor, security audit, and cron delivery validation unless the channel or plugin is effectively enabled or explicitly configured. (#69862) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
-<li>Doctor/plugins: hydrate legacy partial interactive handler state before plugin reload clears dedupe caches, so <code>openclaw doctor</code> and post-update doctor runs no longer crash with <code>Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'clear')</code>. (#70135) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
-<li>Control UI/config: preserve intentionally empty raw config snapshots when clearing pending updates so reset restores the original bytes instead of synthesizing JSON for blank config files. (#68178) Thanks @BunsDev.</li>
-<li>memory-core/dreaming: surface a <code>Dreaming status: blocked</code> line in <code>openclaw memory status</code> when dreaming is enabled but the heartbeat that drives the managed cron is not firing for the default agent, and add a Troubleshooting section to the dreaming docs covering the two common causes (per-agent <code>heartbeat</code> blocks excluding <code>main</code>, and <code>heartbeat.every</code> set to <code>0</code>/empty/invalid), so the silent failure described in #69843 becomes legible on the status surface.</li>
-<li>Cron/run-log: report generic <code>message</code> tool sends under the resolved delivery channel when they match the cron target, while preserving account-specific mismatch checks for delivery traces. (#69940) Thanks @davehappyminion.</li>
-<li>Doctor/channels: merge configured-channel doctor hooks across read-only, loaded, setup, and runtime plugin discovery so partial adapters no longer hide runtime-only compatibility repair or allowlist warnings, preserve disabled-channel opt-outs, and ignore malformed hook values before they can mask valid fallbacks. (#69919) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
-<li>Models/CLI: show bundled provider-owned static catalog rows in <code>models list --all</code> before auth is configured, including Kimi K2.6 rows for Moonshot, OpenRouter, and Vercel AI Gateway, while keeping local-only and workspace plugin catalog paths isolated. (#69909) Thanks @shakkernerd.</li>
-<li>Models/CLI: clarify that <code>models list --provider</code> expects provider ids and reject display labels before loading model discovery. (#70504) Thanks @shakkernerd.</li>
-<li>Configure: skip generic CLI startup bootstrap for <code>openclaw configure</code> and bound hint-only gateway probes so the onboarding TUI reaches its first prompt faster when the Gateway is unavailable. (#69984) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
-<li>Agents/harness: surface selected plugin harness failures directly instead of replaying the same turn through embedded PI, preventing misleading secondary PI auth errors and avoiding duplicate side effects.</li>
-<li>OpenAI Codex: add a ChatGPT device-code auth option beside browser OAuth, so headless or callback-hostile setups can sign in without relying on the localhost browser callback. (#69557) Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>CLI sessions: keep provider-owned CLI sessions through implicit daily expiry while preserving explicit reset behavior, and retain Claude CLI binding metadata across gateway agent requests. (#70106) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
-<li>fix(config): accept truncateAfterCompaction (#68395). Thanks @MonkeyLeeT</li>
-<li>CLI/Claude: keep Claude CLI session bindings stable across OAuth access-token refreshes, so gateway restarts continue the same Claude conversation instead of minting a fresh one. (#70132) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
-<li>QQBot: add <code>INTERACTION</code> intent (<code>1 << 26</code>) to the gateway constants and include it in the <code>FULL_INTENTS</code> mask so interaction events are received. (#70143) Thanks @cxyhhhhh.</li>
-<li>Gateway/restart: preserve one-shot continuation instructions across gateway restarts so agents can resume and reply back to the original chat after reboot. (#63406) Thanks @VACInc.</li>
-<li>Gateway/restart: write restart sentinel files atomically so interrupted writes cannot leave a truncated sentinel behind. (#70225) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
-<li>Pairing: remove stale pending requests for a device when that paired device is deleted, so an old repair approval cannot recreate the removed device from leftover state.</li>
-<li>Security/dotenv: block workspace <code>.env</code> overrides for Matrix, Mattermost, IRC, and Synology endpoint settings so cloned workspaces cannot redirect bundled connector traffic through local endpoint config. (#70240) Thanks @drobison00.</li>
-<li>Telegram: require the same <code>/models</code> authorization for group model-picker callbacks, so unauthorized participants can no longer browse or change the session model through inline buttons. (#70235) Thanks @drobison00.</li>
-<li>Agents/Pi: keep the filtered tool-name allowlist active for embedded OpenAI/OpenAI Codex GPT-5 runs and compaction sessions, so bundled and client tools still execute after the Pi <code>0.68.1</code> session-tool allowlist change instead of stopping at plan-only replies with no tool call. (#70281) Thanks @jalehman.</li>
-<li>Agents/Pi: honor explicit <code>strict-agentic</code> execution contracts for incomplete-turn retry guards across providers, so manually opted-in local or compatible models get the same retry behavior without relying on OpenAI model inference. (#66750) Thanks @ziomancer.</li>
-<li>OpenShell/sandbox: pin verified file reads to an already-opened descriptor, walk the ancestor chain for symlinked parents on platforms without fd-path readlink, and re-check file identity so parent symlink swaps cannot redirect in-sandbox reads to host files outside the allowed mount root. (#69798) Thanks @drobison00.</li>
-<li>Gateway/Control UI: require authenticated Control UI read access before serving <code>/__openclaw/control-ui-config.json</code> when <code>gateway.auth</code> is enabled, so unauthenticated callers can no longer read bootstrap metadata. (#70247) Thanks @drobison00.</li>
-<li>Gateway/restart: default session-scoped restart sentinels to a one-shot agent continuation, so chat-initiated Gateway restarts acknowledge successful boot automatically. (#70269) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
-<li>Build/npm publish: fail postpublish verification when root <code>dist/*</code> files import bundled plugin runtime dependencies without mirroring them in the root package manifest, so Slack-style plugin deps cannot silently ship on the wrong module-resolution path again. (#60112) thanks @medns.</li>

+            <description><![CDATA[<h2>OpenClaw 2026.4.14</h2>
+<h3>Changes</h3>
+<ul>
+<li>OpenAI Codex/models: add forward-compat support for <code>gpt-5.4-pro</code>, including Codex pricing/limits and list/status visibility before the upstream catalog catches up. (#66453) Thanks @jepson-liu.</li>
+<li>Telegram/forum topics: surface human topic names in agent context, prompt metadata, and plugin hook metadata by learning names from Telegram forum service messages. (#65973) Thanks @ptahdunbar.</li>
+</ul>
+<h3>Fixes</h3>
+<ul>
+<li>Agents/Ollama: forward the configured embedded-run timeout into the global undici stream timeout tuning so slow local Ollama runs no longer inherit the default stream cutoff instead of the operator-set run timeout. (#63175) Thanks @mindcraftreader and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Models/Codex: include <code>apiKey</code> in the codex provider catalog output so the Pi ModelRegistry validator no longer rejects the entry and silently drops all custom models from every provider in <code>models.json</code>. (#66180) Thanks @hoyyeva.</li>
+<li>Tools/image+pdf: normalize configured provider/model refs before media-tool registry lookup so image and PDF tool runs stop rejecting valid Ollama vision models as unknown just because the tool path skipped the usual model-ref normalization step. (#59943) Thanks @yqli2420 and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Slack/interactions: apply the configured global <code>allowFrom</code> owner allowlist to channel block-action and modal interactive events, require an expected sender id for cross-verification, and reject ambiguous channel types so interactive triggers can no longer bypass the documented allowlist intent in channels without a <code>users</code> list. Open-by-default behavior is preserved when no allowlists are configured. (#66028) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
+<li>Media-understanding/attachments: fail closed when a local attachment path cannot be canonically resolved via <code>realpath</code>, so a <code>realpath</code> error can no longer downgrade the canonical-roots allowlist check to a non-canonical comparison; attachments that also have a URL still fall back to the network fetch path. (#66022) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
+<li>Agents/gateway-tool: reject <code>config.patch</code> and <code>config.apply</code> calls from the model-facing gateway tool when they would newly enable any flag enumerated by <code>openclaw security audit</code> (for example <code>dangerouslyDisableDeviceAuth</code>, <code>allowInsecureAuth</code>, <code>dangerouslyAllowHostHeaderOriginFallback</code>, <code>hooks.gmail.allowUnsafeExternalContent</code>, <code>tools.exec.applyPatch.workspaceOnly: false</code>); already-enabled flags pass through unchanged so non-dangerous edits in the same patch still apply, and direct authenticated operator RPC behavior is unchanged. (#62006) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
+<li>Google image generation: strip a trailing <code>/openai</code> suffix from configured Google base URLs only when calling the native Gemini image API so Gemini image requests stop 404ing without breaking explicit OpenAI-compatible Google endpoints. (#66445) Thanks @dapzthelegend.</li>
+<li>Telegram/forum topics: persist learned topic names to the Telegram session sidecar store so agent context can keep using human topic names after a restart instead of relearning from future service metadata. (#66107) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
+<li>Doctor/systemd: keep <code>openclaw doctor --repair</code> and service reinstall from re-embedding dotenv-backed secrets in user systemd units, while preserving newer inline overrides over stale state-dir <code>.env</code> values. (#66249) Thanks @tmimmanuel.</li>
+<li>Ollama/OpenAI-compat: send <code>stream_options.include_usage</code> for Ollama streaming completions so local Ollama runs report real usage instead of falling back to bogus prompt-token counts that trigger premature compaction. (#64568) Thanks @xchunzhao and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Doctor/plugins: cache external <code>preferOver</code> catalog lookups within each plugin auto-enable pass so large <code>agents.list</code> configs no longer peg CPU and repeatedly reread plugin catalogs during doctor/plugins resolution. (#66246) Thanks @yfge.</li>
+<li>GitHub Copilot/thinking: allow <code>github-copilot/gpt-5.4</code> to use <code>xhigh</code> reasoning so Copilot GPT-5.4 matches the rest of the GPT-5.4 family. (#50168) Thanks @jakepresent and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Memory/embeddings: preserve non-OpenAI provider prefixes when normalizing OpenAI-compatible embedding model refs so proxy-backed memory providers stop failing with <code>Unknown memory embedding provider</code>. (#66452) Thanks @jlapenna.</li>
+<li>Agents/local models: clarify low-context preflight hints for self-hosted models, point config-backed caps at the relevant OpenClaw setting, and stop suggesting larger models when <code>agents.defaults.contextTokens</code> is the real limit. (#66236) Thanks @ImLukeF.</li>
+<li>Browser/SSRF: restore hostname navigation under the default browser SSRF policy while keeping explicit strict mode reachable from config, and keep managed loopback CDP <code>/json/new</code> fallback requests on the local CDP control policy so browser follow-up fixes stop regressing normal navigation or self-blocking local CDP control. (#66386) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
+<li>Models/Codex: canonicalize the legacy <code>openai-codex/gpt-5.4-codex</code> runtime alias to <code>openai-codex/gpt-5.4</code> while still honoring alias-specific and canonical per-model overrides. (#43060) Thanks @Sapientropic and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Browser/SSRF: preserve explicit strict browser navigation mode for legacy <code>browser.ssrfPolicy.allowPrivateNetwork: false</code> configs by normalizing the legacy alias to the canonical strict marker instead of silently widening those installs to the default non-strict hostname-navigation path.</li>
+<li>Onboarding/custom providers: use <code>max_tokens=16</code> for OpenAI-compatible verification probes so stricter custom endpoints stop rejecting onboarding checks that only need a tiny completion. (#66450) Thanks @WuKongAI-CMU.</li>
+<li>Agents/subagents: emit the subagent registry lazy-runtime stub on the stable dist path that both source and bundled runtime imports resolve, so the follow-up dist fix no longer still fails with <code>ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND</code> at runtime. (#66420) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
+<li>Media-understanding/proxy env: auto-upgrade provider HTTP helper requests to trusted env-proxy mode only when <code>HTTP_PROXY</code>/<code>HTTPS_PROXY</code> is active and the target is not bypassed by <code>NO_PROXY</code>, so remote media-understanding and transcription requests stop failing local DNS pre-resolution in proxy-only environments without widening SSRF bypasses. (#52162) Thanks @mjamiv and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Telegram/media downloads: let Telegram media fetches trust an operator-configured explicit proxy for target DNS resolution after hostname-policy checks, so proxy-backed installs stop failing <code>could not download media</code> on Bot API file downloads after the DNS-pinning regression. (#66245) Thanks @dawei41468 and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Browser: keep loopback CDP readiness checks reachable under strict SSRF defaults so OpenClaw can reconnect to locally started managed Chrome. (#66354) Thanks @hxy91819.</li>
+<li>Agents/context engine: compact engine-owned sessions from the first tool-loop delta and preserve ingest fallback when <code>afterTurn</code> is absent, so long-running tool loops can stay bounded without dropping engine state. (#63555) Thanks @Bikkies.</li>
+<li>OpenAI Codex/auth: keep malformed Codex CLI auth-file diagnostics on the debug logger instead of stdout so interactive command output stays clean while auth read failures remain traceable. (#66451) Thanks @SimbaKingjoe.</li>
+<li>Discord/native commands: return the real status card for native <code>/status</code> interactions instead of falling through to the synthetic <code>✅ Done.</code> ack when the generic dispatcher produces no visible reply. (#54629) Thanks @tkozzer and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Hooks/Ollama: let LLM-backed session-memory slug generation honor an explicit <code>agents.defaults.timeoutSeconds</code> override instead of always aborting after 15 seconds, so slow local Ollama runs stop silently dropping back to generic filenames. (#66237) Thanks @dmak and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Media/transcription: remap <code>.aac</code> filenames to <code>.m4a</code> for OpenAI-compatible audio uploads so AAC voice notes stop failing MIME-sensitive transcription endpoints. (#66446) Thanks @ben-z.</li>
+<li>UI/chat: replace marked.js with markdown-it so maliciously crafted markdown can no longer freeze the Control UI via ReDoS. (#46707) Thanks @zhangfnf.</li>
+<li>Auto-reply/send policy: keep <code>sendPolicy: "deny"</code> from blocking inbound message processing, so the agent still runs its turn while all outbound delivery is suppressed for observer-style setups. (#65461, #53328) Thanks @omarshahine.</li>
+<li>BlueBubbles: lazy-refresh the Private API server-info cache on send when reply threading or message effects are requested but status is unknown, so sends no longer silently degrade to plain messages when the 10-minute cache expires. (#65447, #43764) Thanks @omarshahine.</li>
+<li>Heartbeat/security: force owner downgrade for untrusted <code>hook:wake</code> system events [AI-assisted]. (#66031) Thanks @pgondhi987.</li>
+<li>Browser/security: enforce SSRF policy on snapshot, screenshot, and tab routes [AI]. (#66040) Thanks @pgondhi987.</li>
+<li>Microsoft Teams/security: enforce sender allowlist checks on SSO signin invokes [AI]. (#66033) Thanks @pgondhi987.</li>
+<li>Config/security: redact <code>sourceConfig</code> and <code>runtimeConfig</code> alias fields in <code>redactConfigSnapshot</code> [AI]. (#66030) Thanks @pgondhi987.</li>
+<li>Agents/context engines: run opt-in turn maintenance as idle-aware background work so the next foreground turn no longer waits on proactive maintenance. (#65233) Thanks @100yenadmin.</li>
+<li>Plugins/status: report the registered context-engine IDs in <code>plugins inspect</code> instead of the owning plugin ID, so non-matching engine IDs and multi-engine plugins are classified correctly. (#58766) Thanks @zhuisDEV.</li>
+<li>Context engines: reject resolved plugin engines whose reported <code>info.id</code> does not match their registered slot id, so malformed engines fail fast before id-based runtime branches can misbehave. (#63222) Thanks @fuller-stack-dev.</li>
+<li>WhatsApp: patch installed Baileys media encryption writes during OpenClaw postinstall so the default npm/install.sh delivery path waits for encrypted media files to finish flushing before readback, avoiding transient <code>ENOENT</code> crashes on image sends. (#65896) Thanks @frankekn.</li>
+<li>Gateway/update: unify service entrypoint resolution around the canonical bundled gateway entrypoint so update, reinstall, and doctor repair stop drifting between stale <code>dist/entry.js</code> and current <code>dist/index.js</code> paths. (#65984) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
+<li>Heartbeat/Telegram topics: keep isolated heartbeat replies on the bound forum topic when <code>target=last</code>, instead of dropping them into the group root chat. (#66035) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
+<li>Browser/CDP: let managed local Chrome readiness, status probes, and managed loopback CDP control bypass browser SSRF policy for their own loopback control plane, so OpenClaw no longer misclassifies a healthy child browser as "not reachable after start". (#65695, #66043) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
+<li>Gateway/sessions: stop heartbeat, cron-event, and exec-event turns from overwriting shared-session routing and origin metadata, preventing synthetic <code>heartbeat</code> targets from poisoning later cron or user delivery. (#66073, #63733, #35300) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
+<li>Browser/CDP: let local attach-only <code>manual-cdp</code> profiles reuse the local loopback CDP control plane under strict default policy and remote-class probe timeouts, so tabs/snapshot stop falsely reporting a live local browser session as not running. (#65611, #66080) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
+<li>Cron/scheduler: stop inventing short retries when cron next-run calculation returns no valid future slot, and keep a maintenance wake armed so enabled unscheduled jobs recover without entering a refire loop. (#66019, #66083) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
+<li>Cron/scheduler: preserve the active error-backoff floor when maintenance repair recomputes a missing cron next-run, so recurring errored jobs do not resume early after a transient next-run resolution failure. (#66019, #66083, #66113) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
+<li>Outbound/delivery-queue: persist the originating outbound <code>session</code> context on queued delivery entries and replay it during recovery, so write-ahead-queued sends keep their original outbound media policy context after restart instead of evaluating against a missing session. (#66025) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
+<li>Memory/Ollama: restore the built-in <code>ollama</code> embedding adapter in memory-core so explicit <code>memorySearch.provider: "ollama"</code> works again, and include endpoint-aware cache keys so different Ollama hosts do not reuse each other's embeddings. (#63429, #66078, #66163) Thanks @nnish16 and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Auto-reply/queue: split collect-mode followup drains into contiguous groups by per-message authorization context (sender id, owner status, exec/bash-elevated overrides), so queued items from different senders or exec configs no longer execute under the last queued run's owner-only and exec-approval context. (#66024) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
+<li>Dreaming/memory-core: require a live queued Dreaming cron event before the heartbeat hook runs the sweep, so managed Dreaming no longer replays on later heartbeats after the scheduled run was already consumed. (#66139) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
+<li>Control UI/Dreaming: stop Imported Insights and Memory Palace from calling optional <code>memory-wiki</code> gateway methods when the plugin is off, and refresh config before wiki reloads so the Dreaming tab stops showing misleading unknown-method failures. (#66140) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
+<li>Agents/tools: only mark streamed unknown-tool retries as counted when a streamed message actually classifies an unavailable tool, and keep incomplete streamed tool names from resetting the retry streak before the final assistant message arrives. (#66145) Thanks @dutifulbob.</li>
+<li>Memory/active-memory: move recalled memory onto the hidden untrusted prompt-prefix path instead of system prompt injection, label the visible Active Memory status line fields, and include the resolved recall provider/model in gateway debug logs so trace/debug output matches what the model actually saw. (#66144) Thanks @Takhoffman.</li>
+<li>Memory/QMD: stop treating legacy lowercase <code>memory.md</code> as a second default root collection, so QMD recall no longer searches phantom <code>memory-alt-*</code> collections and builtin/QMD root-memory fallback stays aligned. (#66141) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
+<li>Agents/subagents: ship <code>dist/agents/subagent-registry.runtime.js</code> in npm builds so <code>runtime: "subagent"</code> runs stop stalling in <code>queued</code> after the registry import fails. (#66189) Thanks @yqli2420 and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Agents/OpenAI: map <code>minimal</code> thinking to OpenAI's supported <code>low</code> reasoning effort for GPT-5.4 requests, so embedded runs stop failing request validation. Thanks @steipete.</li>
+<li>Voice-call/media-stream: resolve the source IP from trusted forwarding headers for per-IP pending-connection limits when <code>webhookSecurity.trustForwardingHeaders</code> and <code>trustedProxyIPs</code> are configured, and reserve <code>maxConnections</code> capacity for in-flight WebSocket upgrades so concurrent handshakes can no longer momentarily exceed the operator-set cap. (#66027) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
+<li>Feishu/allowlist: canonicalize allowlist entries by explicit <code>user</code>/<code>chat</code> kind, strip repeated <code>feishu:</code>/<code>lark:</code> provider prefixes, and stop folding opaque Feishu IDs to lowercase, so allowlist matching no longer crosses user/chat namespaces or widens to case-insensitive ID matches the operator did not intend. (#66021) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
+<li>Telegram/status commands: let read-only status slash commands bypass busy topic turns, while keeping <code>/export-session</code> on the normal lane so it cannot interleave with an in-flight session mutation. (#66226) Thanks @VACInc and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>TTS/reply media: persist OpenClaw temp voice outputs into managed outbound media and allow them through reply-media normalization, so voice-note replies stop silently dropping. (#63511) Thanks @jetd1.</li>
+<li>Agents/tools: treat Windows drive-letter paths (<code>C:\\...</code>) as absolute when resolving sandbox and read-tool paths so workspace root is not prepended under POSIX path rules. (#54039) Thanks @ly85206559 and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Agents/OpenAI: recover embedded GPT-style runs when reasoning-only or empty turns need bounded continuation, with replay-safe retry gating and incomplete-turn fallback when no visible answer arrives. (#66167) thanks @jalehman</li>
+<li>Outbound/relay-status: suppress internal relay-status placeholder payloads (<code>No channel reply.</code>, <code>Replied in-thread.</code>, <code>Replied in #...</code>, wiki-update status variants ending in <code>No channel reply.</code>) before channel delivery so internal housekeeping text does not leak to users.</li>
+<li>Slack/doctor: add a dedicated doctor-contract sidecar so config warmup paths such as <code>openclaw cron</code> no longer fall back to Slack's broader contract surface, which could trigger Slack-related config-read crashes on affected setups. (#63192) Thanks @shhtheonlyperson.</li>
+<li>Hooks/session-memory: pass the resolved agent workspace into gateway <code>/new</code> and <code>/reset</code> session-memory hooks so reset snapshots stay scoped to the right agent workspace instead of leaking into the default workspace. (#64735) Thanks @suboss87 and @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>CLI/approvals: raise the default <code>openclaw approvals get</code> gateway timeout and report config-load timeouts explicitly, so slow hosts stop showing a misleading <code>Config unavailable.</code> note when the approvals snapshot succeeds but the follow-up config RPC needs more time. (#66239) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
+<li>Media/store: honor configured agent media limits when saving generated media and persisting outbound reply media, so the store no longer hard-stops those flows at 5 MB before the configured limit applies. (#66229) Thanks @neeravmakwana and @vincentkoc.</li>

     - classify this as pairing/auth, TLS trust, wrong advertised route, wrong address/port, or gateway down
-    - remember: Tailscale/public mobile routes require wss:// or Tailscale Serve; ws:// is loopback-only
+    - remember: Tailscale/public mobile routes require wss:// or Tailscale Serve; private LAN ws:// is still allowed
     - quote the exact app status/error below
     - tell me whether `openclaw devices list` should show a pending pairing request
     - if more signal is needed, ask for `openclaw qr --json`, `openclaw devices list`, and `openclaw nodes status`

-For isolated jobs, “fresh session” means a new transcript/session id for each run. OpenClaw may carry safe preferences such as thinking/fast/verbose settings, labels, and explicit user-selected model/auth overrides, but it does not inherit ambient conversation context from an older cron row: channel/group routing, send or queue policy, elevation, origin, or ACP runtime binding. Use `current` or `session:<id>` when a recurring job should deliberately build on the same conversation context.

 For isolated jobs, runtime teardown now includes best-effort browser cleanup for that cron session. Cleanup failures are ignored so the actual cron result still wins.
 
-Isolated cron runs also dispose any bundled MCP runtime instances created for the job through the shared runtime-cleanup path.

 Hooks are small scripts that run when something happens inside the Gateway. They can be discovered from directories and inspected with `openclaw hooks`.
