fix(ci): prefer Anthropic OAuth in live validation

Keep the setup TUI parent stdin paused after its inherited-stdio child exits so Docker and PTY setup parents terminate cleanly. Align pre/post setup terminal cleanup with the cleanup-then-exit contract and add lifecycle regression coverage.

Thanks @fuller-stack-dev.

 ### Highlights
 
-- Telegram and WhatsApp channel delivery are richer and less brittle: Telegram can send structured rich text with tables, lists, expandable blockquotes, prompt-preserving CLI backend delivery, retired native draft migration, and safer rich-media boundaries, while WhatsApp now honors configured ACP bindings. (#92679, #84082, #89421, #92513) Thanks @obviyus, @jzakirov, @spacegeologist, and @TurboTheTurtle.
-- Agent and Gateway recovery is sharper across account-scoped DM sends, generated media completions, restart shutdown aborts, yielded subagent pauses, yielded cron media, heartbeat dedupe, session identity prompts, and unknown OpenAI agent selector rejection.

-- Provider/model handling expands and tightens with GLM-5.2, Claude Haiku 4.5 catalog rows, OpenRouter and Google Vertex provider-prefix normalization, managed SecretRef auth, bounded model browse discovery, storeless OpenAI Responses replay gating, and Claude 4.5 Copilot tool-streaming safety.

 ### Changes

 - Agent commands: support `/btw` in CLI-backed sessions and keep CLI usage-error exits classified as usage failures instead of successful runs. (#92669, #92162) Thanks @joshavant and @Pandah97.
 - Usage hooks: add built-in full footer rendering, default footer templates, per-turn usage state, credential-aware limits, and fixed-decimal formatting for usage-bar templates. (#92657, #89835, #89629) Thanks @Marvinthebored.
 - Docs and operator guidance: document node config examples, clarify before-install hook scope, correct agent default concurrency comments, refresh ZAI provider docs, and update channel/group docs for current Telegram and WhatsApp behavior. (#92677, #92766, #92695) Thanks @liuhao1024, @sallyom, and @ArielSmoliar.
 
 ### Fixes
 
-- Channels and delivery: preserve account-scoped DM channel send policy, rich Telegram final replies, rich Telegram tables and lists, Telegram thread-create CLI remapping, Slack outbound `message_sent` hooks, contributed message-tool schema optionality, same-channel generated media completions, and channel chunking around surrogate pairs and Infinity limits.

 - Discord: give generated auto-thread titles a 60-second timeout and 4,096-token reasoning-model output budget, clamped to the selected model output cap. (#64734) Thanks @hanamizuki.
-- Agent, cron, and Gateway runtime: mark active main sessions before restart shutdown aborts, pause yielded subagent runs whose terminal also signals abort, preserve yielded media completions, de-duplicate main-session heartbeat events, expose session identity in runtime prompts, reject unknown OpenAI agent selectors, keep generated media completions and slash-command block replies in WebChat, and require admin privileges for HTTP session/model override surfaces.

-- Memory, state, diagnostics, and config: split header-too-large embedding batches, keep QMD memory search enabled in transient mode, avoid SQLite WAL on NFS volumes, preserve recovery scheduling outside stuck-session warning backoff, and keep shell environment fallbacks contained in config write tests. (#92650, #92618, #92639, #91247, #92752) Thanks @mushuiyu886, @TurboTheTurtle, @849261680, and @gnanam1990.
-- UI/mobile/TUI: preserve dashboard session parent lineage, WebChat backscroll, reset soft command args, sidebar session picker interactivity, collapsed workspace files, resolved `/model` confirmation refs, and stale foreground iOS Gateway reconnects. (#90658, #92622, #91353, #92705, #92779, #92773, #92552) Thanks @luoyanglang, @TurboTheTurtle, @zhouhe-xydt, @NianJiuZst, @shakkernerd, @NarahariRaghava, and @Solvely-Colin.
-- Release and test reliability: extend slow Gateway/full-suite watchdogs, split local full-suite shards when throttled, stabilize plugin auth marker fixtures, avoid brittle provider-ref error text, and keep QA Lab bootstrap selection assertions aligned with flow-only scenarios. (#92652)
+- Agent, cron, and Gateway runtime: mark active main sessions before restart shutdown aborts, pause yielded subagent runs whose terminal also signals abort, clamp trusted subagent thinking overrides through provider/model fallback, preserve yielded media completions, deliver channel message-tool final replies through auto-reply while hiding internal delivery hints, restore reset archive fallback reads when active async transcripts are missing, de-duplicate main-session heartbeat events, expose session identity in runtime prompts, reject unknown OpenAI agent selectors, keep generated media completions, slash-command block replies, and trajectory export commands in WebChat, and require admin privileges for HTTP session/model override surfaces.

+- Memory, state, diagnostics, and config: split header-too-large embedding batches, keep QMD memory search enabled in transient mode, avoid SQLite WAL on NFS volumes, preserve recovery scheduling outside stuck-session warning backoff, preserve full-reindex rollback/cache recovery, treat raw Memory Wiki source pages as source evidence, and keep shell environment fallbacks contained in config write tests. (#92650, #92618, #92639, #91247, #92752, #92881, #59137, #92876, #69700) Thanks @mushuiyu886, @TurboTheTurtle, @849261680, @gnanam1990, @TSHOGX, and @arlen8411.
+- UI/mobile/TUI: preserve dashboard session parent lineage, WebChat backscroll, reset soft command args, sidebar session picker interactivity, collapsed workspace files, resolved `/model` confirmation refs, stale foreground iOS Gateway reconnects, and paused setup-parent stdin after inherited-stdio child exit. (#90658, #92622, #91353, #92705, #92779, #92773, #92552, #93159) Thanks @luoyanglang, @TurboTheTurtle, @zhouhe-xydt, @NianJiuZst, @shakkernerd, @NarahariRaghava, @Solvely-Colin, and @fuller-stack-dev.
+- Plugins and updates: repair missing required platform packages during managed plugin installs and updates, including omitted Codex platform binaries.
+- Release and test reliability: extend slow Gateway/full-suite watchdogs, split local full-suite shards when throttled, stabilize plugin auth marker fixtures, avoid brittle provider-ref error text, fold Telegram RTT sampling into live QA evidence, simplify QA scorecard mappings around canonical coverage IDs, keep QA Lab bootstrap selection assertions aligned with flow-only scenarios, skip QA coverage artifact consumers when runtime parity producer status is not green, keep Feishu lifecycle release checks pointed at the active fixture config, isolate trajectory-export live seed turns from Codex-native shell approvals, preserve release-check child refs while pinning expected SHAs, widen live OpenAI TTS budgets for slower provider responses, and avoid false downgrade prompts for unresolved latest-tag updates. (#92652, #92550, #92558, #92911) Thanks @RomneyDa and @Andy312432.

-Codex thread bindings live in OpenClaw's SQLite plugin state and use the stable
-agent-scoped OpenClaw session key, or an opaque conversation-binding id, as
-their owner. Physical session ids fence delayed cleanup but may rotate without
-losing the Codex thread. Context-engine compaction adopts the successor id
-before continuing native Codex compaction. The bounded store rejects a new
-binding at its safety limit instead of evicting an existing thread's continuity
-record.
-Conversation binds create or resume their Codex thread on the first bound
-message after channel approval; an abandoned approval consumes no thread row.
-That first message carries the prepared thread directly into its turn.
-Subsequent messages use a metadata-only resume to subscribe the shared client,

-The runtime does not poll transcript-adjacent binding files. Upgrades from

-Successfully matched sidecars are archived before the new runtime resumes their
