+- Preferred entrypoint: `pnpm test:parallels:npm-update`
+- Flow: fresh snapshot -> install npm package baseline -> smoke -> install current main tgz on the same guest -> smoke again.
+- Same-guest update verification should set the default model explicitly to `openai/gpt-5.4` before the agent turn and use a fresh explicit `--session-id` so old session model state does not leak into the check.
+- The aggregate npm-update wrapper must resolve the Linux VM with the same Ubuntu fallback policy as `parallels-linux-smoke.sh` before both fresh and update lanes. On Peter's current host, missing `Ubuntu 24.04.3 ARM64` should fall back to `Ubuntu 25.10`.
+- On Windows same-guest update checks, restart the gateway after the npm upgrade before `gateway status` / `agent`; in-place global npm updates can otherwise leave stale hashed `dist/*` module imports alive in the running service.
+- For Windows same-guest update checks, prefer the done-file/log-drain PowerShell runner pattern over one long-lived `prlctl exec ... powershell -EncodedCommand ...` transport. The guest can finish successfully while the outer `prlctl exec` still hangs.
+- Linux same-guest update verification should also export `HOME=/root`, pass `OPENAI_API_KEY` via `prlctl exec ... /usr/bin/env`, and use `openclaw agent --local`; the fresh Linux baseline does not rely on persisted gateway credentials.
+
+## CLI invocation footgun
+
+- The Parallels smoke shell scripts should tolerate a literal bare `--` arg so `pnpm test:parallels:* -- --json` and similar forwarded invocations work without needing to call `bash scripts/e2e/...` directly.

-- Target the snapshot closest to `macOS 26.3.1 fresh`.
+- Default to the snapshot closest to `macOS 26.3.1 latest`.
+- On Peter's Tahoe VM, `fresh-latest-march-2026` can hang in `prlctl snapshot-switch`; if restore times out there, rerun with `--snapshot-hint 'macOS 26.3.1 latest'` before blaming auth or the harness.
+- The macOS smoke should include a dashboard load phase after gateway health: resolve the tokenized URL with `openclaw dashboard --no-open`, verify the served HTML contains the Control UI title/root shell, then open Safari and require an established localhost TCP connection from Safari to the gateway port.
 - `prlctl exec` is fine for deterministic repo commands, but use the guest Terminal or `prlctl enter` when installer parity or shell-sensitive behavior matters.
+- Multi-word `openclaw agent --message ...` checks should go through a guest shell wrapper (`guest_current_user_sh` / `guest_current_user_cli` or `/bin/sh -lc ...`), not raw `prlctl exec ... node openclaw.mjs ...`, or the message can be split into extra argv tokens and Commander reports `too many arguments for 'agent'`.
 - On the fresh Tahoe snapshot, `brew` exists but `node` may be missing from PATH in noninteractive exec. Use `/opt/homebrew/bin/node` when needed.
 - Fresh host-served tgz installs should install as guest root with `HOME=/var/root`, then run onboarding as the desktop user via `prlctl exec --current-user`.
 - Root-installed tgz smoke can log plugin blocks for world-writable `extensions/*`; do not treat that as an onboarding or gateway failure unless plugin loading is the task.

+- Windows installer/tgz phases now retry once after guest-ready recheck; keep new Windows smoke steps idempotent so a transport-flake retry is safe.
+- Windows global `npm install -g` phases can stay quiet for a minute or more even when healthy; inspect the phase log before calling it hung, and only treat it as a regression once the retry wrapper or timeout trips.
 - Keep onboarding and status output ASCII-clean in logs; fancy punctuation becomes mojibake in current capture paths.
+- If you hit an older run with `rc=255` plus an empty `fresh.install-main.log` or `upgrade.install-main.log`, treat it as a likely `prlctl exec` transport drop after guest start-up, not immediate proof of an npm/package failure.
 
 ## Linux flow
 
 - Preferred entrypoint: `pnpm test:parallels:linux`
 - Use the snapshot closest to fresh `Ubuntu 24.04.3 ARM64`.
+- If that exact VM is missing on the host, fall back to the closest Ubuntu guest with a fresh poweroff snapshot. On Peter's host today, that is `Ubuntu 25.10`.
 - Use plain `prlctl exec`; `--current-user` is not the right transport on this snapshot.
 - Fresh snapshots may be missing `curl`, and `apt-get update` can fail on clock skew. Bootstrap with `apt-get -o Acquire::Check-Date=false update` and install `curl ca-certificates`.
 - Fresh `main` tgz smoke still needs the latest-release installer first because the snapshot has no Node or npm before bootstrap.
 - This snapshot does not have a usable `systemd --user` session; managed daemon install is unsupported.
 - `prlctl exec` reaps detached Linux child processes on this snapshot, so detached background gateway runs are not trustworthy smoke signals.
+- Treat `gateway=skipped-no-detached-linux-gateway` plus `daemon=systemd-user-unavailable` as baseline on that Linux lane, not a regression.

+  - `pnpm release:check`
+  - `OPENCLAW_INSTALL_SMOKE_SKIP_NONROOT=1 pnpm test:install:smoke`

+  matching GitHub release from the fixed commit, then rerun preflight from
+  scratch before publishing.
+- For stable mac releases, generate the signed `appcast.xml` before uploading
+  public release assets so the updater feed cannot lag the published binaries.
+- Serialize stable appcast-producing runs across tags so two releases do not
+  generate replacement `appcast.xml` files from the same stale seed.
+- For stable releases, confirm the latest beta already passed the broader release workflows before cutting stable.
+- If any required build, packaging step, or release workflow is red, do not say the release is ready.
+
 ## Use the right auth flow
 
-- Core `openclaw` publish uses GitHub trusted publishing.
-- Do not use `NPM_TOKEN` or the plugin OTP flow for core releases.
+- OpenClaw publish uses GitHub trusted publishing.
+- The publish run must be started manually with `workflow_dispatch`.
+- The npm workflow and the private mac publish workflow accept
+  `preflight_only=true` to run validation/build/package steps without uploading
+  public release assets.
+- The private mac workflow also accepts `smoke_test_only=true` for branch-safe
+  workflow smoke tests that use ad-hoc signing, skip notarization, skip shared
+  appcast generation, and do not prove release readiness.
+- `preflight_only=true` on the npm workflow is also the right way to validate an
+  existing tag after publish; it should keep running the build checks even when
+  the npm version is already published.
+- Validation-only runs may be dispatched from a branch when you are testing a
+  workflow change before merge.
+- `.github/workflows/macos-release.yml` in `openclaw/openclaw` is now a
+  public validation-only handoff. It validates the tag/release state and points
+  operators to the private repo; it does not build or publish macOS artifacts.
+- Real mac preflight and real mac publish both use
+  `openclaw/releases-private/.github/workflows/openclaw-macos-publish.yml`.
+- The private mac workflow runs on GitHub's xlarge macOS runner and uses a
+  SwiftPM cache because the Swift build/test/package path is CPU-heavy.
+- Private mac preflight uploads notarized build artifacts as workflow artifacts
+  instead of uploading public GitHub release assets.
+- Private smoke-test runs upload ad-hoc, non-notarized build artifacts as
+  workflow artifacts and intentionally skip stable `appcast.xml` generation.
+- npm preflight, public mac validation, and private mac preflight must all pass
+  before any real publish run starts.
+- Real publish runs must be dispatched from `main`; branch-dispatched publish
+  attempts should fail before the protected environment is reached.
+- The release workflows stay tag-based; rely on the documented release sequence
+  rather than workflow-level SHA pinning.
+- The `npm-release` environment must be approved by `@openclaw/openclaw-release-managers` before publish continues.
+- Mac publish uses
+  `openclaw/releases-private/.github/workflows/openclaw-macos-publish.yml` for
+  build, signing, notarization, packaged mac artifact generation, and
+  stable-feed `appcast.xml` artifact generation.
+- Real private mac publish uploads the packaged `.zip`, `.dmg`, and
+  `.dSYM.zip` assets to the existing GitHub release in `openclaw/openclaw`
+  automatically when `OPENCLAW_PUBLIC_REPO_RELEASE_TOKEN` is present in the
+  private repo `mac-release` environment.
+- For stable releases, the agent must also download the signed
+  `macos-appcast-<tag>` artifact from the successful private mac workflow and
+  then update `appcast.xml` on `main`.
+- For beta mac releases, do not update the shared production `appcast.xml`
+  unless a separate beta Sparkle feed exists.
+- The private repo targets a dedicated `mac-release` environment. If the GitHub
+  plan does not yet support required reviewers there, do not assume the
+  environment alone is the approval boundary; rely on private repo access and
+  CODEOWNERS until those settings can be enabled.
+- Do not use `NPM_TOKEN` or the plugin OTP flow for OpenClaw releases.
 - `@openclaw/*` plugin publishes use a separate maintainer-only flow.
 - Only publish plugins that already exist on npm; bundled disk-tree-only plugins stay unpublished.
 
+## Fallback local mac publish
+
+- Keep the original local macOS publish workflow available as a fallback in case
+  CI/CD mac publishing is unavailable or broken.
+- Preserve the existing maintainer workflow Peter uses: run it on a real Mac
+  with local signing, notary, and Sparkle credentials already configured.
+- Follow the private maintainer macOS runbook for the local steps:
+  `scripts/package-mac-dist.sh` to build, sign, notarize, and package the app;
+  manual GitHub release asset upload; then `scripts/make_appcast.sh` plus the
+  `appcast.xml` commit to `main`.
+- `scripts/package-mac-dist.sh` now fails closed for release builds if the
+  bundled app comes out with a debug bundle id, an empty Sparkle feed URL, or a
+  `CFBundleVersion` below the canonical Sparkle build floor for that short
+  version. For correction tags, set a higher explicit `APP_BUILD`.
+- `scripts/make_appcast.sh` first uses `generate_appcast` from `PATH`, then
+  falls back to the SwiftPM Sparkle tool output under `apps/macos/.build`.
+- For stable tags, the local fallback may update the shared production
+  `appcast.xml`.
+- For beta tags, the local fallback still publishes the mac assets but must not
+  update the shared production `appcast.xml` unless a separate beta feed exists.
+- Treat the local workflow as fallback only. Prefer the CI/CD publish workflow
+  when it is working.
+- After any stable mac publish, verify all of the following before you call the
+  release finished:
+  - the GitHub release has `.zip`, `.dmg`, and `.dSYM.zip` assets
+  - `appcast.xml` on `main` points at the new stable zip
+  - the packaged app reports the expected short version and a numeric
+    `CFBundleVersion` at or above the canonical Sparkle build floor
+
+## Run the release sequence
+
+1. Confirm the operator explicitly wants to cut a release.
+2. Choose the exact target version and git tag.
+3. Make every repo version location match that tag before creating it.
+4. Update `CHANGELOG.md` and assemble the matching GitHub release notes.
+5. Run the full preflight for all relevant release builds, including mac readiness.
+6. Confirm the target npm version is not already published.
+7. Create and push the git tag.
+8. Create or refresh the matching GitHub release.
+9. Start `.github/workflows/openclaw-npm-release.yml` with `preflight_only=true`
+   and wait for it to pass.
+10. Start `.github/workflows/macos-release.yml` in `openclaw/openclaw` and wait
+    for the public validation-only run to pass.
+11. Start
+    `openclaw/releases-private/.github/workflows/openclaw-macos-publish.yml`
+    with `preflight_only=true` and wait for it to pass.
+12. If any preflight or validation run fails, fix the issue on a new commit,
+    delete the tag and matching GitHub release, recreate them from the fixed
+    commit, and rerun all relevant preflights from scratch before continuing.
+    Never reuse old preflight results after the commit changes.
+13. Start `.github/workflows/openclaw-npm-release.yml` with the same tag for
+    the real publish.
+14. Wait for `npm-release` approval from `@openclaw/openclaw-release-managers`.
+15. Start
+    `openclaw/releases-private/.github/workflows/openclaw-macos-publish.yml`
+    for the real publish and wait for success.
+16. Verify the successful real private mac run uploaded the `.zip`, `.dmg`,
+    and `.dSYM.zip` artifacts to the existing GitHub release in
+    `openclaw/openclaw`.
+17. For stable releases, download `macos-appcast-<tag>` from the successful
+    private mac run, update `appcast.xml` on `main`, and verify the feed.
+18. For beta releases, publish the mac assets but expect no shared production
+    `appcast.xml` artifact and do not update the shared production feed unless a
+    separate beta feed exists.
+19. After publish, verify npm and the attached release artifacts.

+description: Investigate `pnpm test` memory growth, Vitest worker OOMs, and suspicious RSS increases in OpenClaw using the `scripts/test-parallel.mjs` heap snapshot tooling. Use when Codex needs to reproduce test-lane memory growth, collect repeated `.heapsnapshot` files, compare snapshots from the same worker PID, distinguish transformed-module retention from real data leaks, and fix or reduce the impact by patching cleanup logic or isolating hotspot tests.
+---
+
+# OpenClaw Test Heap Leaks
+
+Use this skill for test-memory investigations. Do not guess from RSS alone when heap snapshots are available.
+
+## Workflow
+
+1. Reproduce the failing shape first.
+   - Match the real entrypoint if possible. For Linux CI-style unit failures, start with:
+   - `pnpm canvas:a2ui:bundle && OPENCLAW_TEST_MEMORY_TRACE=1 OPENCLAW_TEST_HEAPSNAPSHOT_INTERVAL_MS=60000 OPENCLAW_TEST_HEAPSNAPSHOT_DIR=.tmp/heapsnap OPENCLAW_TEST_WORKERS=2 OPENCLAW_TEST_MAX_OLD_SPACE_SIZE_MB=6144 pnpm test`
+   - Keep `OPENCLAW_TEST_MEMORY_TRACE=1` enabled so the wrapper prints per-file RSS summaries alongside the snapshots.
+   - If the report is about a specific shard or worker budget, preserve that shape.
+
+2. Wait for repeated snapshots before concluding anything.
+   - Take at least two intervals from the same lane.
+   - Compare snapshots from the same PID inside one lane directory such as `.tmp/heapsnap/unit-fast/`.
+   - Use `scripts/heapsnapshot-delta.mjs` to compare either two files directly or the earliest/latest pair per PID in one lane directory.
+
+3. Classify the growth before choosing a fix.
+   - If growth is dominated by Vite/Vitest transformed source strings, `Module`, `system / Context`, bytecode, descriptor arrays, or property maps, treat it as retained module graph growth in long-lived workers.
+   - If growth is dominated by app objects, caches, buffers, server handles, timers, mock state, sqlite state, or similar runtime objects, treat it as a likely cleanup or lifecycle leak.
+
+4. Fix the right layer.
+   - For retained transformed-module growth in shared workers:
+   - Move hotspot files out of `unit-fast` by updating `test/fixtures/test-parallel.behavior.json`.
+   - Prefer `singletonIsolated` for files that are safe alone but inflate shared worker heaps.
+   - If the file should already have been peeled out by timings but is absent from `test/fixtures/test-timings.unit.json`, call that out explicitly. Missing timings are a scheduling blind spot.
+   - For real leaks:
+   - Patch the implicated test or runtime cleanup path.
+   - Look for missing `afterEach`/`afterAll`, module-reset gaps, retained global state, unreleased DB handles, or listeners/timers that survive the file.
+
+5. Verify with the most direct proof.
+   - Re-run the targeted lane or file with heap snapshots enabled if the suite still finishes in reasonable time.
+   - If snapshot overhead pushes tests over Vitest timeouts, fall back to the same lane without snapshots and confirm the RSS trend or OOM is reduced.
+   - For wrapper-only changes, at minimum verify the expected lanes start and the snapshot files are written.
+
+## Heuristics
+
+- Do not call everything a leak. In this repo, large `unit-fast` growth can be a worker-lifetime problem rather than an application object leak.
+- `scripts/test-parallel.mjs` and `scripts/test-parallel-memory.mjs` are the primary control points for wrapper diagnostics.
+- The lane names printed by `[test-parallel] start ...` and `[test-parallel][mem] summary ...` tell you where to focus.
+- When one or two files account for most of the delta and they are missing from timings, reducing impact by isolating them is usually the first pragmatic fix.
+- When the same retained object families grow across multiple intervals in the same worker PID, trust the snapshots over intuition.
+
+## Snapshot Comparison
+
+- Direct comparison:
+  - `node .agents/skills/openclaw-test-heap-leaks/scripts/heapsnapshot-delta.mjs before.heapsnapshot after.heapsnapshot`
+- Auto-select earliest/latest snapshots per PID within one lane:
+  - `node .agents/skills/openclaw-test-heap-leaks/scripts/heapsnapshot-delta.mjs --lane-dir .tmp/heapsnap/unit-fast`
+- Useful flags:
+  - `--top 40`
+  - `--min-kb 32`
+  - `--pid 16133`
+
+Read the top positive deltas first. Large positive growth in module-transform artifacts suggests lane isolation; large positive growth in runtime objects suggests a real leak.
+
+## Output Expectations
+
+When using this skill, report:
+
+- The exact reproduce command.
+- Which lane and PID were compared.
+- The dominant retained object families from the snapshot delta.
+- Whether the issue is a real leak or shared-worker retained module growth.
+- The concrete fix or impact-reduction patch.
+- What you verified, and what snapshot overhead prevented you from verifying.

+description: Triage GitHub security advisories for OpenClaw with high-confidence close/keep decisions, exact tag and commit verification, trust-model checks, optional hardening notes, and a final reply ready to post and copy to clipboard.
+---
+
+# Security Triage
+
+Use when reviewing OpenClaw security advisories, drafts, or GHSA reports.
+
+Goal: high-confidence maintainers' triage without over-closing real issues or shipping unnecessary regressions.
+
+## Close Bar
+
+Close only if one of these is true:
+
+- duplicate of an existing advisory or fixed issue
+- invalid against shipped behavior
+- out of scope under `SECURITY.md`
+- fixed before any affected release/tag
+
+Do not close only because `main` is fixed. If latest shipped tag or npm release is affected, keep it open until released or published with the right status.
+
+## Required Reads
+
+Before answering:
+
+1. Read `SECURITY.md`.
+2. Read the GHSA body with `gh api /repos/openclaw/openclaw/security-advisories/<GHSA>`.
+3. Inspect the exact implicated code paths.
+4. Verify shipped state:
+   - `git tag --sort=-creatordate | head`
+   - `npm view openclaw version --userconfig "$(mktemp)"`
+   - `git tag --contains <fix-commit>`
+   - if needed: `git show <tag>:path/to/file`
+5. Search for canonical overlap:
+   - existing published GHSAs
+   - older fixed bugs
+   - same trust-model class already covered in `SECURITY.md`
+
+## Review Method
+
+For each advisory, decide:
+
+- `close`
+- `keep open`
+- `keep open but narrow`
+
+Check in this order:
+
+1. Trust model
+   - Is the prerequisite already inside trusted host/local/plugin/operator state?
+   - Does `SECURITY.md` explicitly call this class out as out of scope or hardening-only?
+2. Shipped behavior
+   - Is the bug present in the latest shipped tag or npm release?
+   - Was it fixed before release?
+3. Exploit path
+   - Does the report show a real boundary bypass, not just prompt injection, local same-user control, or helper-level semantics?
+4. Functional tradeoff
+   - If a hardening change would reduce intended user functionality, call that out before proposing it.
+   - Prefer fixes that preserve user workflows over deny-by-default regressions unless the boundary demands it.
+
+## Response Format
+
+When preparing a maintainer-ready close reply:
+
+1. Print the GHSA URL first.
+2. Then draft a detailed response the maintainer can post.
+3. Include:
+   - exact reason for close
+   - exact code refs
+   - exact shipped tag / release facts
+   - exact fix commit or canonical duplicate GHSA when applicable
+   - optional hardening note only if worthwhile and functionality-preserving
+
+Keep tone firm, specific, non-defensive.
+
+## Clipboard Step
+
+After drafting the final post body, copy it:
+
+```bash
+pbcopy <<'EOF'
+<final response>
+EOF
+```
+
+Tell the user that the clipboard now contains the proposed response.
+
+## Useful Commands
+
+```bash
+gh api /repos/openclaw/openclaw/security-advisories/<GHSA>
+gh api /repos/openclaw/openclaw/security-advisories --paginate
+git tag --sort=-creatordate | head -n 20
+npm view openclaw version --userconfig "$(mktemp)"
+git tag --contains <commit>
+git show <tag>:<path>
+gh search issues --repo openclaw/openclaw --match title,body,comments -- "<terms>"
+gh search prs --repo openclaw/openclaw --match title,body,comments -- "<terms>"
+```
+
+## Decision Notes
+
+- “fixed on main, unreleased” is usually not a close.
+- “needs attacker-controlled trusted local state first” is usually out of scope.
+- “same-host same-user process can already read/write local state” is usually out of scope.
+- “helper function behaves differently than documented config semantics” is usually invalid.
+- If only the severity is wrong but the bug is real, keep it open and narrow the impact in the reply.

 ## Unreleased
 
-### Changes
+### Breaking
 
-- Commands/btw: add `/btw` side questions for quick tool-less answers about the current session without changing future session context, with dismissible in-session TUI answers and explicit BTW replies on external channels. (#45444) Thanks @ngutman.
-- Gateway/docs: clarify that empty URL input allowlists are treated as unset, document `allowUrl: false` as the deny-all switch, and add regression coverage for the normalization path.
-- Sandbox/runtime: add pluggable sandbox backends, ship an OpenShell backend with `mirror` and `remote` workspace modes, and make sandbox list/recreate/prune backend-aware instead of Docker-only.
-- Sandbox/SSH: add a core SSH sandbox backend with secret-backed key, certificate, and known_hosts inputs, move shared remote exec/filesystem tooling into core, and keep OpenShell focused on sandbox lifecycle plus optional `mirror` mode.
-- Web tools/Firecrawl: add Firecrawl as an `onboard`/configure search provider via a bundled plugin, expose explicit `firecrawl_search` and `firecrawl_scrape` tools, and align core `web_fetch` fallback behavior with Firecrawl base-URL/env fallback plus guarded endpoint fetches.
-- Plugins/bundles: add compatible Codex, Claude, and Cursor bundle discovery/install support, map bundle skills into OpenClaw skills, and apply Claude bundle `settings.json` defaults to embedded Pi with shell overrides sanitized.
-- Plugins/providers: move OpenRouter, GitHub Copilot, and OpenAI Codex provider/runtime logic into bundled plugins, including dynamic model fallback, runtime auth exchange, stream wrappers, capability hints, and cache-TTL policy.
-- Plugins/agent integrations: broaden the plugin surface for app-server integrations with channel-aware commands, interactive callbacks, inbound claims, and Discord/Telegram conversation binding support. (#45318) Thanks @huntharo and @vincentkoc.
-- Install/update: allow package-manager installs from GitHub `main` via `openclaw update --tag main`, installer `--version main`, or direct npm/pnpm git specs. (#47630) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/health monitor: add configurable stale-event thresholds and restart limits, plus per-channel and per-account `healthMonitor.enabled` overrides, while keeping the existing global disable path on `gateway.channelHealthCheckMinutes=0`. (#42107) Thanks @rstar327.
-- Android/mobile: add a system-aware dark theme across onboarding and post-onboarding screens so the app follows the device theme through setup, chat, and voice flows. (#46249) Thanks @sibbl.
-- Feishu/ACP: add current-conversation ACP and subagent session binding for supported DMs and topic conversations, including completion delivery back to the originating Feishu conversation. (#46819) Thanks @Takhoffman.
-- Plugins/marketplaces: add Claude marketplace registry resolution, `plugin@marketplace` installs, marketplace listing, and update support, plus Docker E2E coverage for local and official marketplace flows. (#48058) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Commands/plugins: add owner-gated `/plugins` and `/plugin` chat commands for plugin list/show and enable/disable flows, alongside explicit `commands.plugins` config gating. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Feishu/cards: add structured interactive approval and quick-action launcher cards, preserve callback user and conversation context through routing, and keep legacy card-action fallback behavior so common actions can run without typing raw commands. (#47873) Thanks @Takhoffman.
-- Feishu/streaming: add `onReasoningStream` and `onReasoningEnd` support to streaming cards, so `/reasoning stream` renders thinking tokens as markdown blockquotes in the same card — matching the Telegram channel's reasoning lane behavior. (#46029) Thanks @day253.
-- Feishu/cards: add identity-aware structured card headers and note footers for Feishu replies and direct sends, while keeping that presentation wired through the shared outbound identity path. (#29938) Thanks @nszhsl.
-- Android/nodes: add `callLog.search` plus shared Call Log permission wiring so Android nodes can search recent call history through the gateway. (#44073) Thanks @lixuankai.
-- Android/nodes: add `sms.search` plus shared SMS permission wiring so Android nodes can search device text messages through the gateway. (#48299) Thanks @lixuankai.
-- Plugins/MiniMax: merge the bundled MiniMax API and MiniMax OAuth plugin surfaces into a single default-on `minimax` plugin, while keeping legacy `minimax-portal-auth` config ids aliased for compatibility.
-- Telegram/actions: add `topic-edit` for forum-topic renames and icon updates while sharing the same Telegram topic-edit transport used by the plugin runtime. (#47798) Thanks @obviyus.
-- Telegram/error replies: add a default-off `channels.telegram.silentErrorReplies` setting so bot error replies can be delivered silently across regular replies, native commands, and fallback sends. (#19776) Thanks @ImLukeF.
-- Refactor/channels: remove the legacy channel shim directories and point channel-specific imports directly at the extension-owned implementations. (#45967) Thanks @scoootscooob.
-- Docs/Zalo: clarify the Marketplace-bot support matrix and config guidance so the Zalo channel docs match current Bot Creator behavior more closely. (#47552) Thanks @No898.
-- secrets: harden read-only SecretRef command paths and diagnostics. (#47794) Thanks @joshavant.
-- Browser/existing-session: support `browser.profiles.<name>.userDataDir` so Chrome DevTools MCP can attach to Brave, Edge, and other Chromium-based browsers through their own user data directories. (#48170) Thanks @velvet-shark.
-- Skills/prompt budget: preserve all registered skills via a compact catalog fallback before dropping entries when the full prompt format exceeds `maxSkillsPromptChars`. (#47553) Thanks @snese.
-- Models/OpenAI: add native forward-compat support for `gpt-5.4-mini` and `gpt-5.4-nano` in the OpenAI provider catalog, runtime resolution, and reasoning capability gates. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Plugins/bundles: make enabled bundle MCP servers expose runnable tools in embedded Pi, and default relative bundle MCP launches to the bundle root so marketplace bundles like Context7 work through Pi instead of stopping at config import.
-- Scope message SecretRef resolution and harden doctor/status paths. (#48728) Thanks @joshavant.
-- Plugins/testing: add a public `openclaw/plugin-sdk/testing` surface for plugin-author test helpers, and move bundled-extension-only test bridges out of `extensions/` into private repo test helpers.
-- Plugins/Chutes: add a bundled Chutes provider with plugin-owned OAuth/API-key auth, dynamic model discovery, and default-on extension wiring. (#41416) Thanks @Veightor.
-- Plugins/binding: add `onConversationBindingResolved(...)` so plugins can react immediately after bind approvals or denies without blocking channel interaction acknowledgements. (#48678) Thanks @huntharo.
-- CLI/config: expand `config set` with SecretRef and provider builder modes, JSON/batch assignment support, and `--dry-run` validation with structured JSON output. (#49296) Thanks @joshavant.
-- Control UI/appearance: unify theme border radii across Claw, Knot, and Dash, and add a Roundness slider to the Appearance settings so users can adjust corner radius from sharp to fully rounded. Thanks @BunsDev.
-- Control UI/chat: add an expand-to-canvas button on assistant chat bubbles and in-app session navigation from Sessions and Cron views. Thanks @BunsDev.
-- Plugins/context engines: expose `delegateCompactionToRuntime(...)` on the public plugin SDK, refactor the legacy engine to use the shared helper, and clarify `ownsCompaction` delegation semantics for non-owning engines. (#49061) Thanks @jalehman.
-- Plugins/MiniMax: add MiniMax-M2.7 and MiniMax-M2.7-highspeed models and update the default model from M2.5 to M2.7. (#49691) Thanks @liyuan97.
+### Changes
 
 ### Fixes
 
-- Hooks/Windows: preserve Windows-aware hook path handling across plugin-managed hook loading and bundle MCP config resolution, so path aliases and canonicalization differences no longer drop hook metadata or break bundled MCP launches.
-- Outbound/channels: skip full configured-channel scans when explicit channel selection already determines the target, so explicit sends and broadcasts avoid slow unrelated plugin configuration checks.
-- Tlon/install: fetch `@tloncorp/api` from the pinned HTTPS tarball artifact instead of a Git transport URL so installs no longer depend on GitHub SSH access.
-- WhatsApp/install: fetch the Baileys `libsignal` dependency from a pinned GitHub HTTPS tarball so frozen installs and Windows CI no longer depend on `git@github.com` access.
-- CLI/Ollama onboarding: keep the interactive model picker for explicit `openclaw onboard --auth-choice ollama` runs so setup still selects a default model without reintroducing pre-picker auto-pulls. (#49249) Thanks @BruceMacD.
-- Plugins/bundler TDZ: fix `RESERVED_COMMANDS` temporal dead zone error that prevented device-pair, phone-control, and talk-voice plugins from registering when the bundler placed the commands module after call sites in the same output chunk. Thanks @BunsDev.
-- Plugins/imports: fix stale googlechat runtime-api import paths and signal SDK circular re-exports broken by recent plugin-sdk refactors. Thanks @BunsDev.
-- Google auth/Node 25: patch `gaxios` to use native fetch without injecting `globalThis.window`, while translating proxy and mTLS transport settings so Google Vertex and Google Chat auth keep working on Node 25. (#47914) Thanks @pdd-cli.

+### Breaking
+
+### Changes
+
+- Gateway/OpenAI compatibility: add `/v1/models` and `/v1/embeddings`, and forward explicit model overrides through `/v1/chat/completions` and `/v1/responses` for broader client and RAG compatibility. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/tools: make `/tools` show the tools the current agent can actually use right now, add a compact default view with an optional detailed mode, and add a live “Available Right Now” section in the Control UI so it is easier to see what will work before you ask.
+- Microsoft Teams: migrate to the official Teams SDK and add AI-agent UX best practices including streaming 1:1 replies, welcome cards with prompt starters, feedback/reflection, informative status updates, typing indicators, and native AI labeling. (#51808)
+- Microsoft Teams: add message edit and delete support for sent messages, including in-thread fallbacks when no explicit target is provided. (#49925)
+- Skills/install metadata: add one-click install recipes to bundled skills (coding-agent, gh-issues, openai-whisper-api, session-logs, tmux, trello, weather) so the CLI and Control UI can offer dependency installation when requirements are missing. (#53411) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Control UI/skills: add status-filter tabs (All / Ready / Needs Setup / Disabled) with counts, replace inline skill cards with a click-to-detail dialog showing requirements, toggle switch, install action, API key entry, source metadata, and homepage link. (#53411) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Slack/interactive replies: restore rich reply parity for direct deliveries, auto-render simple trailing `Options:` lines as buttons/selects, improve Slack interactive setup defaults, and isolate reply controls from plugin interactive handlers. (#53389) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- CLI/containers: add `--container` and `OPENCLAW_CONTAINER` to run `openclaw` commands inside a running Docker or Podman OpenClaw container. (#52651) Thanks @sallyom.
+- Discord/auto threads: add optional `autoThreadName: "generated"` naming so new auto-created threads can be renamed asynchronously with concise LLM-generated titles while keeping the existing message-based naming as the default. (#43366) Thanks @davidguttman.
+- Plugins/hooks: add `before_dispatch` with canonical inbound metadata and route handled replies through the normal final-delivery path, preserving TTS and routed delivery semantics. (#50444) Thanks @gfzhx.
+- Control UI/agents: convert agent workspace file rows to expandable `<details>` with lazy-loaded inline markdown preview, and add comprehensive `.sidebar-markdown` styles for headings, lists, code blocks, tables, blockquotes, and details/summary elements. (#53411) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Control UI/markdown preview: restyle the agent workspace file preview dialog with a frosted backdrop, sized panel, and styled header, and integrate `@create-markdown/preview` v2 system theme for rich markdown rendering (headings, tables, code blocks, callouts, blockquotes) that auto-adapts to the app's light/dark design tokens. (#53411) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- macOS app/config: replace horizontal pill-based subsection navigation with a collapsible tree sidebar using disclosure chevrons and indented subsection rows. (#53411) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- CLI/skills: soften missing-requirements label from "missing" to "needs setup" and surface API key setup guidance (where to get a key, CLI save command, storage path) in `openclaw skills info` output. (#53411) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- macOS app/skills: add "Get your key" homepage link and storage-path hint to the API key editor dialog, and show the config path in save confirmation messages. (#53411) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Control UI/agents: add a "Not set" placeholder to the default agent model selector dropdown. (#53411) Thanks @BunsDev.
+
+### Fixes
+
+- Security/sandbox media dispatch: close the `mediaUrl`/`fileUrl` alias bypass so outbound tool and message actions cannot escape media-root restrictions. (#54034)
+- Gateway/restart sentinel: wake the interrupted agent session via heartbeat after restart instead of only sending a best-effort restart note, retry outbound delivery once on transient failure, and preserve explicit thread/topic routing through the wake path so replies land in the correct Telegram topic or Slack thread. (#53940) Thanks @VACInc.
+- Docker/setup: avoid the pre-start `openclaw-cli` shared-network namespace loop by routing setup-time onboard/config writes through `openclaw-gateway`, so fresh Docker installs stop failing before the gateway comes up. (#53385) Thanks @amsminn.
+- Gateway/channels: keep channel startup sequential while isolating per-channel boot failures, so one broken channel no longer blocks later channels from starting. (#54215) Thanks @JonathanJing.
+- Embedded runs/secrets: stop unresolved `SecretRef` config from crashing embedded agent runs by falling back to the resolved runtime snapshot when needed. Fixes #45838.
+- WhatsApp/groups: track recent gateway-sent message IDs and suppress only matching group echoes, preserving owner `/status`, `/new`, and `/activation` commands from linked-account `fromMe` traffic. (#53624) Thanks @w-sss.
+- WhatsApp/reply-to-bot detection: restore implicit group reply detection by unwrapping `botInvokeMessage` payloads and reading `selfLid` from `creds.json`, so reply-based mentions reach the bot again in linked-account group chats.
+- Telegram/forum topics: recover `#General` topic `1` routing when Telegram omits forum metadata, including native commands, interactive callbacks, inbound message context, and fallback error replies. (#53699) thanks @huntharo
+- Discord/gateway supervision: centralize gateway error handling behind a lifetime-owned supervisor so early, active, and late-teardown Carbon gateway errors stay classified consistently and stop surfacing as process-killing teardown crashes.
+- Discord/timeouts: send a visible timeout reply when the inbound Discord worker times out before a final reply starts, including created auto-thread targets and queued-run ordering. (#53823) Thanks @Kimbo7870.
+- ACP/direct chats: always deliver a terminal ACP result when final TTS does not yield audio, even if block text already streamed earlier, and skip redundant empty-text final synthesis. (#53692) Thanks @w-sss.
+- Telegram/outbound errors: preserve actionable 403 membership/block/kick details and treat `bot not a member` as a permanent delivery failure so Telegram sends stop retrying doomed chats. (#53635) Thanks @w-sss.
+- Telegram/photos: preflight Telegram photo dimension and aspect-ratio rules, and fall back to document sends when image metadata is invalid or unavailable so photo uploads stop failing with `PHOTO_INVALID_DIMENSIONS`. (#52545) Thanks @hnshah.
+- Slack/runtime defaults: trim Slack DM reply overhead, restore Codex auto transport, and tighten Slack/web-search runtime defaults around DM preview threading, cache scoping, warning dedupe, and explicit web-search opt-in. (#53957) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Doctor/image generation: seed migrated legacy Nano Banana Google provider config with the `/v1beta` API root and an empty model list so `openclaw doctor --fix` completes and the migrated native Google image path keeps hitting the correct endpoint. (#53757) Thanks @mahopan.
+- Models/google: normalize bare Google Generative AI API roots for custom provider names, and keep built-in Google model-id rewrites working when `api` is declared only on individual models, so custom Google lanes and older configs stop missing `/v1beta` or preview-id normalization. (#44969) Thanks @Kathie-yu.
+- Feishu/startup: treat unresolved `SecretRef` app credentials as not configured during account resolution so CLI startup and read-only Feishu config surfaces stop crashing before runtime-backed secret resolution is available. (#53675) Thanks @hpt.
+- Feishu/groups: when `groupPolicy` is `open`, stop implicitly requiring @mentions for unset `requireMention`, so image, file, audio, and other non-text group messages reach the bot unless operators explicitly keep mention gating on. (#54058) Thanks @byungsker.
+- Feishu/startup: keep `requireMention` enforcement strict when bot identity startup probes fail, raise the startup bot-info timeout to 30s, and add cancellable background identity recovery so mention-gated groups recover without noisy fallback. (#43788) Thanks @lefarcen.
+- Feishu/MSTeams message tool: keep provider-native `card` payloads optional in merged tool schemas so media-only sends stop failing validation before channel runtime dispatch. (#53715) Thanks @lndyzwdxhs.
+- Feishu/docx block ordering: preserve the document tree order from `docx.document.convert` when inserting blocks, fixing heading/paragraph/list misordering in newly written Feishu documents. (#40524) Thanks @TaoXieSZ.
+- Telegram/native commands: run native slash-command execution against the resolved runtime snapshot so DM commands still reply when fresh config reads surface unresolved SecretRefs. (#53179) Thanks @nimbleenigma.
+- Gateway/ports: parse Docker Compose-style `OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_PORT` host publish values correctly without reviving the legacy `CLAWDBOT_GATEWAY_PORT` override. (#44083) Thanks @bebule.
+- Plugins/memory-lancedb: bootstrap the env-configured HTTP/HTTPS proxy dispatcher before OpenAI embeddings requests so memory capture and recall work in proxy-required environments again. (#54119) Thanks @neeravmakwana.
+- Runtime/build: stabilize long-lived lazy `dist` runtime entry paths and harden bundled plugin npm staging so local rebuilds stop breaking on missing hashed chunks or broken shell `npm` shims. (#53855) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Security/skills: validate skill installer metadata against strict regex allowlists per package manager, sanitize skill metadata for terminal output, add URL protocol allowlisting in markdown preview and skill homepage links, warn on non-bundled skill install sources, and remove unsafe `file://` workspace links. (#53471) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Memory/builtin sqlite: cut redundant sync and status query churn by snapshotting file state once per source, reusing sync statements, and consolidating status aggregation reads, which reduces builtin memory overhead on sync/status/doctor-style paths. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- TUI/chat: preserve pending user messages when a slow local run emits an empty final event, but still defer and flush the needed history reload after the newer active run finishes so silent/tool-only runs do not stay incomplete. (#53130) Thanks @joelnishanth.
+- DeepSeek/pricing: replace the zero-cost DeepSeek catalog rates with the current DeepSeek V3.2 pricing so usage totals stop showing `$0.00` for DeepSeek sessions. (#54143) Thanks @arkyu2077.
+- CLI/logging: make pretty log timestamps always include an explicit timezone offset in default UTC and `--local-time` modes, so incident triage no longer mixes ambiguous clock displays. (#38904) Thanks @sahilsatralkar.
+- Browser/default detection: recognize macOS LaunchServices Edge bundle ids so default Chromium detection stops falling back to Chrome when Edge is the system default. (#48561) Thanks @zoherghadyali.
+- CLI/Telegram topics: route `message thread create` through Telegram `topic-create` with the required topic `name` field so Telegram forum topic creation works from the CLI again. (#54336) Thanks @andyliu.
+- Telegram/pairing: render pairing codes and approval commands as Telegram-only code blocks while keeping shared pairing replies plain text for other channels. (#52784) Thanks @sumukhj1219.
+- Agents/cron: suppress the default heartbeat system prompt for cron-triggered embedded runs even when they target non-cron session keys, so cron tasks stop reading `HEARTBEAT.md` and polluting unrelated threads. (#53152) Thanks @Protocol-zero-0.
+- Agents/cron: mark best-effort announce runs as not delivered when any payload fails, and log those partial delivery failures instead of silently reporting success. (#42535) Thanks @MoerAI.
+- Plugins: enforce terminal hook decision semantics for tool/message guards (#54241) Thanks @joshavant.
+- Marketplace/agents: correct the ClawHub skill URL in agent docs and stream marketplace archive downloads to disk so installs avoid excess memory use and fail cleanly on empty responses. (#54160) Thanks @QuinnH496.
+- Discord/config types: add missing `autoArchiveDuration` to `DiscordGuildChannelConfig` so TypeScript config definitions match the existing schema and runtime support. (#43427) Thanks @davidguttman.
+- Docs/IRC: fix five `json55` code-fence typos in the IRC channel examples so Mintlify applies JSON5 syntax highlighting correctly. (#50842) Thanks @Hollychou924.
+
+## 2026.3.23
+
+### Breaking
+
+### Changes
+
+- ModelStudio/Qwen: add standard (pay-as-you-go) DashScope endpoints for China and global Qwen API keys alongside the existing Coding Plan endpoints, and relabel the provider group to `Qwen (Alibaba Cloud Model Studio)`. (#43878)
+- UI/clarity: consolidate button primitives (`btn--icon`, `btn--ghost`, `btn--xs`), refine the Knot theme to a black-and-red palette with WCAG 2.1 AA contrast, add config icons for Diagnostics/CLI/Secrets/ACP/MCP sections, replace the roundness slider with discrete stops, and improve accessibility with aria-labels across usage filters. (#53272) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- CSP/Control UI: compute SHA-256 hashes for inline `<script>` blocks in the served `index.html` and include them in the `script-src` CSP directive, keeping inline scripts blocked by default while allowing explicitly hashed bootstrap code. (#53307) Thanks @BunsDev.
+
+### Fixes
+
+- Plugins/bundled runtimes: ship bundled plugin runtime sidecars like WhatsApp `light-runtime-api.js`, Matrix `runtime-api.js`, and other plugin runtime entry files in the npm package again, so global installs stop failing on missing bundled plugin runtime surfaces.
+- CLI/channel auth: auto-select the single configured login-capable channel for `channels login`/`logout`, harden channel ids against prototype-chain and control-character abuse, and fall back cleanly to catalog-backed channel installs, so channel auth works again for single-channel setups and on-demand channel installs. (#53254) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Auth/OpenAI tokens: stop live gateway auth-profile writes from reverting freshly saved credentials back to stale in-memory values, and make `models auth paste-token` write to the resolved agent store, so Configure, Onboard, and token-paste flows stop snapping back to expired OpenAI tokens. Fixes #53207. Related to #45516.
+- Control UI/auth: preserve operator scopes through the device-auth bypass path, ignore cached under-scoped operator tokens, and show a clear `operator.read` fallback message when a connection really lacks read scope, so operator sessions stop failing or blanking on read-backed pages. (#53110) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Plugins/ClawHub: resolve plugin API compatibility against the active runtime version at install time, and add regression coverage for current `>=2026.3.22` ClawHub package checks so installs no longer fail behind the stale `1.2.0` constant. (#53157) Thanks @futhgar.
+- Plugins/uninstall: accept installed `clawhub:` specs and versionless ClawHub package names as uninstall targets, so `openclaw plugins uninstall clawhub:<package>` works again even when the recorded install was pinned to a version.
+- Browser/Chrome MCP: wait for existing-session browser tabs to become usable after attach instead of treating the initial Chrome MCP handshake as ready, which reduces user-profile timeouts and repeated consent churn on macOS Chrome attach flows. Fixes #52930. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Browser/CDP: reuse an already-running loopback browser after a short initial reachability miss instead of immediately falling back to relaunch detection, which fixes second-run browser start/open regressions on slower headless Linux setups. Fixes #53004. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/web_search: use the active runtime `web_search` provider instead of stale/default selection, so agent turns keep hitting the provider you actually configured. Fixes #53020. Thanks @jzakirov.
+- Mistral/models: lower bundled Mistral max-token defaults to safe output budgets and teach `openclaw doctor --fix` to repair old persisted Mistral provider configs that still carry context-sized output limits, avoiding deterministic Mistral 422 rejects on fresh and existing setups. Fixes #52599. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- ClawHub/macOS auth: honor macOS auth config and XDG auth paths for saved ClawHub credentials, so `openclaw skills ...` and gateway skill browsing keep using the signed-in auth state instead of silently falling back to unauthenticated mode. Fixes #53034.
+- ClawHub/macOS: read the local ClawHub login from the macOS Application Support path and still honor XDG config on macOS, so skill browsing uses the logged-in token on both default and XDG-style setups. Fixes #52949. Thanks @scoootscooob.
+- ClawHub/skills: resolve the local ClawHub auth token for gateway skill browsing and switch browse-all requests to search so ClawControl stops falling into unauthenticated 429s and empty authenticated skill lists. Fixes #52949. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Config/warnings: suppress the confusing “newer OpenClaw” warning when a config written by a same-base correction release like `2026.3.23-2` is read by `2026.3.23`, while still warning for truly newer or incompatible versions.
+- CLI/cron: make `openclaw cron add|edit --at ... --tz <iana>` honor the requested local wall-clock time for offset-less one-shot datetimes, including DST boundaries, and keep `--tz` rejected for `--every`. (#53224) Thanks @RolfHegr.
+- Commands/auth: stop slash-command authorization from crashing or dropping valid allowlists when channel `allowFrom` resolution hits unresolved SecretRef-backed accounts, and fail closed only for the affected provider inference path. (#52791) Thanks @Lukavyi.
+- Agents/failover: classify generic `api_error` payloads as retryable only when they include transient failure signals, so MiniMax-style backend failures still trigger model fallback without misclassifying billing, auth, or format/context errors. (#49611) Thanks @ayushozha.
+- LINE/runtime-api: pre-export overlapping runtime symbols before the `line-runtime` star export so jiti no longer throws `TypeError: Cannot redefine property` on startup. (#53221) Thanks @Drickon.
+- Telegram/threading: populate `currentThreadTs` in the threading tool-context fallback for Telegram DM topics so thread-aware tools still receive the active topic context when the main thread metadata is missing. (#52217)
+- Diagnostics/cache trace: strip credential fields from cache-trace JSONL output while preserving non-sensitive diagnostic fields and image redaction metadata.
+- Docs/Feishu: replace `botName` with `name` in the channel config examples so the docs match the strict account schema for per-account display names. (#52753) Thanks @haroldfabla2-hue.
+- Doctor/plugins: make `openclaw doctor --fix` remove stale `plugins.allow` and `plugins.entries` refs left behind after plugin removal. Thanks @sallyom
+- Agents/replay: canonicalize malformed assistant transcript content before session-history sanitization so legacy or corrupted assistant turns stop crashing Pi replay and subagent recovery paths.
+- ClawHub/skills: keep updating already-tracked legacy Unicode slugs after the ASCII-only slug hardening, so older installs do not get stuck behind `Invalid skill slug` errors during `openclaw skills update`. (#53206) Thanks @drobison00.
+- Infra/exec trust: preserve shell-multiplexer wrapper binaries for policy checks without breaking approved-command reconstruction, so BusyBox/ToyBox allowlist and audit flows bind to the real wrapper while execution plans stay coherent. (#53134) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/message tool: make Discord `components` and Slack `blocks` optional again, and route Feishu `message(..., media=...)` sends through the outbound media path, so pin/unpin/react flows stop failing schema validation and Feishu file/image attachments actually send. Fixes #52970 and #52962. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Gateway/model pricing: stop `openrouter/auto` pricing refresh from recursing indefinitely during bootstrap, so OpenRouter auto routes can populate cached pricing and `usage.cost` again. Fixes #53035. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Models/OpenAI Codex OAuth: bootstrap the env-configured HTTP/HTTPS proxy dispatcher on the stored-credential refresh path before token renewal runs, so expired Codex OAuth profiles can refresh successfully in proxy-required environments instead of locking users out after the first token expiry.
+- Models/OpenAI Codex OAuth and Plugins/MiniMax OAuth: ensure env-configured HTTP/HTTPS proxy dispatchers are initialized before OAuth preflight and token exchange requests so proxy-required environments can complete MiniMax and OpenAI Codex sign-in flows again. (#52228; fixes #51619, #51569) Thanks @openperf.
+- Plugins/memory-lancedb: bootstrap LanceDB into plugin runtime state on first use when the bundled npm install does not already have it, so `plugins.slots.memory="memory-lancedb"` works again after global npm installs without moving LanceDB into OpenClaw core dependencies. Fixes #26100.
+- Config/plugins: treat stale unknown `plugins.allow` ids as warnings instead of fatal config errors, so recovery commands like `plugins install`, `doctor --fix`, and `status` still run when a plugin is missing locally. Fixes #52992. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Doctor/WhatsApp: stop auto-enable from appending built-in channel ids like `whatsapp` to `plugins.allow`, so `openclaw doctor --fix` no longer writes schema-invalid plugin allowlist entries when repairing built-in channels. Fixes #52931. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Telegram/auto-reply: preserve same-chat inbound debounce order without stranding stale busy-session followups, and keep same-key overflow turns ordered when tracked debounce keys are saturated. (#52998) Thanks @osolmaz.
+- Telegram/message tool: add `asDocument` as a user-facing alias for `forceDocument` on image and GIF sends, while preserving explicit `forceDocument` precedence when both flags are present. (#52461) Thanks @bakhtiersizhaev.
+- Discord/commands: return an explicit unauthorized reply for privileged native slash commands instead of falling through to Discord's misleading generic completion when auth gates reject the sender. Fixes #53041. Thanks @scoootscooob.
+- Channels/catalog: let external channel catalogs override shipped fallback metadata and honor overridden npm specs during channel setup, so custom channel catalogs no longer fall back to bundled packages when a channel id matches. (#52988)
+- Voice-call/Plivo: stabilize Plivo v2 replay keys so webhook retries and replay protection stop colliding on valid follow-up deliveries.
+- Agents/skills: prefer the active resolved runtime snapshot for embedded skill config and env injection, so `skills.entries.<skill>.apiKey` SecretRefs resolve correctly during embedded startup instead of failing on raw source config. Fixes #53098. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/subagents: recheck timed-out worker waits against the latest runtime snapshot before sending completion events, so fast-finishing workers stop being reported as timed out when they actually succeeded. Fixes #53106. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/Anthropic: preserve latest assistant thinking and redacted-thinking block ordering during transcript image sanitization so follow-up turns do not trip Anthropic's unmodified-thinking validation. (#52961) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/DeepSeek: refactor the bundled DeepSeek provider onto the shared single-provider plugin entry, move its coverage into the extension test lane, and keep bundled auth env-var metadata on the generated manifest path. (#48762) Thanks @07akioni.
+- Plugins/Matrix: avoid duplicate `resolveMatrixAccountStringValues` runtime-api exports under Jiti so bundled Matrix installs no longer crash at startup with `Cannot redefine property: resolveMatrixAccountStringValues`. Fixes #52909 and #52891. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Security/exec approvals: keep shell-wrapper positional-argv allowlist matching on real direct carriers only by rejecting single-quoted `$0`/`$n` tokens, disallowing newline-separated `exec`, and still accepting `exec --` carrier forms. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Gateway/probe: stop successful gateway handshakes from timing out as unreachable while post-connect detail RPCs are still loading, so slow devices report a reachable RPC failure instead of a false negative dead gateway. Fixes #52927. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Gateway/supervision: stop lock conflicts from crash-looping under launchd and systemd by keeping the duplicate process in a retry wait instead of exiting as a failure while another healthy gateway still owns the lock. Fixes #52922. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Gateway/auth: require auth for canvas routes and admin scope for agent session reset, so anonymous canvas access and non-admin reset requests fail closed.
+- Release/install: keep previously released bundled plugins and Control UI assets in published openclaw npm installs, and fail release checks when those shipped artifacts are missing. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- WhatsApp/outbound sends: keep the active Web listener on a direct process-global symbol so split runtime chunks keep sharing the connected Baileys session and `openclaw message send --channel whatsapp` stops failing after connect. Fixes #52574. Thanks @MonkeyLeeT.
+- Agents/process: fail loud when `send-keys` tries cursor-sensitive keys before a background PTY reports its cursor mode, so startup races no longer silently send the wrong arrow/Home/End sequences. (#51490) Thanks @liuy.
+
+## 2026.3.22
+
+### Breaking
+
+- Plugins/install: bare `openclaw plugins install <package>` now prefers ClawHub before npm for npm-safe names, and only falls back to npm when ClawHub does not have that package or version. Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/tools/clawhub
+- Browser/Chrome MCP: remove the legacy Chrome extension relay path, bundled extension assets, `driver: "extension"`, and `browser.relayBindHost`. Run `openclaw doctor --fix` to migrate host-local browser config to `existing-session` / `user`; Docker, headless, sandbox, and remote browser flows still use raw CDP. Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/gateway/doctor and https://docs.openclaw.ai/tools/browser (#47893) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Tools/image generation: standardize the stock image create/edit path on the core `image_generate` tool. The old `nano-banana-pro` docs/examples are gone; if you previously copied that sample-skill config, switch to `agents.defaults.imageGenerationModel` for built-in image generation or install a separate third-party skill explicitly.
+- Skills/image generation: remove the bundled `nano-banana-pro` skill wrapper. Use `agents.defaults.imageGenerationModel.primary: "google/gemini-3-pro-image-preview"` for the native Nano Banana-style path instead.
+- Plugins/SDK: the new public plugin SDK surface is `openclaw/plugin-sdk/*`; `openclaw/extension-api` is removed with no compatibility shim. Bundled plugins must use injected runtime for host-side operations (for example `api.runtime.agent.runEmbeddedPiAgent`) and any remaining direct imports must come from narrow `openclaw/plugin-sdk/*` subpaths instead of the monolithic SDK root. Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/plugins/sdk-migration and https://docs.openclaw.ai/plugins/sdk-overview
+- Plugins/message discovery: require `ChannelMessageActionAdapter.describeMessageTool(...)` for shared `message` tool discovery. The legacy `listActions`, `getCapabilities`, and `getToolSchema` adapter methods are removed. Plugin authors should migrate message discovery to `describeMessageTool(...)` and keep channel-specific action runtime code inside the owning plugin package. Thanks @gumadeiras.
+- Plugins/Matrix: add a new Matrix plugin backed by the official `matrix-js-sdk`. If you are upgrading from the previous public Matrix plugin, follow the migration guide: https://docs.openclaw.ai/install/migrating-matrix Thanks @gumadeiras.
+- Config/env: remove legacy `CLAWDBOT_*` and `MOLTBOT_*` compatibility env names across runtime, installers, and test tooling. Use the matching `OPENCLAW_*` env names instead.
+- Config/state: remove legacy `.moltbot` state-dir and `moltbot.json` auto-detection/migration fallback. If you still keep state under `~/.moltbot`, move it to `~/.openclaw` or set `OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR` / `OPENCLAW_CONFIG_PATH` explicitly. Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/install/migrating and https://docs.openclaw.ai/start/getting-started
+- Exec/env sandbox: block build-tool JVM injection (`MAVEN_OPTS`, `SBT_OPTS`, `GRADLE_OPTS`, `ANT_OPTS`), glibc tunable exploitation (`GLIBC_TUNABLES`), and .NET dependency resolution hijack (`DOTNET_ADDITIONAL_DEPS`) from the host exec environment, and restrict Gradle init script redirect (`GRADLE_USER_HOME`) as an override-only block so user-configured Gradle homes still propagate. (#49702)
+- Discord/commands: switch native command deployment to Carbon reconcile by default so Discord restarts stop churning slash commands through OpenClaw’s local deploy path. (#46597) Thanks @huntharo and @thewilloftheshadow.
+- Security/exec approvals: treat `time` as a transparent dispatch wrapper during allowlist evaluation and allow-always persistence so approved `time ...` commands bind the inner executable instead of the wrapper path. Thanks @YLChen-007 for reporting.
+- Voice-call/webhooks: reject missing provider signature headers before body reads, drop the pre-auth body budget to `64 KB` / `5s`, and cap concurrent pre-auth requests per source IP so unauthenticated callers cannot force the old `1 MB` / `30s` buffering path. Thanks @SEORY0 for reporting.
+- Plugins/Matrix: stop mention-gated or otherwise dropped room chatter from refreshing focused thread bindings before the message is actually routed, so idle ACP and session bindings can still expire normally in mention-required rooms. Thanks @vincentkoc, @dinakars777 and @mvanhorn.
+- Plugins/Matrix: durably dedupe inbound room events across gateway restarts so previously handled Matrix messages are not replayed as new, while preserving clean-restart backlog delivery for unseen events. (#50922) thanks @gumadeiras
+- Agents/media replies: migrate the remaining browser, canvas, and nodes snapshot outputs onto `details.media` so generated media keeps attaching to assistant replies after the collect-then-attach refactor. (#51731) Thanks @christianklotz.
+- Android/contacts search: escape literal `%` and `_` in contact-name queries so searches like `100%` or `_id` no longer match unrelated contacts through SQL `LIKE` wildcards. (#41891) Thanks @Kaneki-x.
+- Gateway/usage: include reset and deleted archived session transcripts in usage totals, session discovery, and archived-only session detail fallback so the Usage view no longer undercounts rotated sessions. (#43215) Thanks @rcrick.
+
+### Changes
+
+- ClawHub/install: add native `openclaw skills search|install|update` flows plus `openclaw plugins install clawhub:<package>` with tracked update metadata, gateway skill-install/update support for ClawHub-backed requests, and regression coverage/docs for the new source path.
+- Plugins/marketplaces: add Claude marketplace registry resolution, `plugin@marketplace` installs, marketplace listing, and update support, plus Docker E2E coverage for local and official marketplace flows. (#48058) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Commands/plugins: add owner-gated `/plugins` and `/plugin` chat commands for plugin list/show and enable/disable flows, alongside explicit `commands.plugins` config gating. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Install/update: allow package-manager installs from GitHub `main` via `openclaw update --tag main`, installer `--version main`, or direct npm/pnpm git specs. (#47630) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/bundles: add compatible Codex, Claude, and Cursor bundle discovery/install support, map bundle skills into OpenClaw skills, and apply Claude bundle `settings.json` defaults to embedded Pi with shell overrides sanitized.
+- CLI/hooks: route hook-pack install and update through `openclaw plugins`, keep `openclaw hooks` focused on hook visibility and per-hook controls, and show plugin-managed hook details in CLI output.
+- Models/OpenAI: switch the default OpenAI setup model to `openai/gpt-5.4`, keep Codex on `openai-codex/gpt-5.4`, and centralize OpenAI chat, image, TTS, transcription, and embedding defaults in one shared module so future default-model updates stay low-churn. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents: add per-agent thinking/reasoning/fast defaults and auto-revert disallowed model overrides to the agent's default selection. Thanks @xuanmingguo and @vincentkoc.
+- Commands/btw: add `/btw` side questions for quick tool-less answers about the current session without changing future session context, with dismissible in-session TUI answers and explicit BTW replies on external channels. (#45444) Thanks @ngutman.
+- Sandbox/runtime: add pluggable sandbox backends, ship an OpenShell backend with `mirror` and `remote` workspace modes, and make sandbox list/recreate/prune backend-aware instead of Docker-only.
+- Sandbox/SSH: add a core SSH sandbox backend with secret-backed key, certificate, and known_hosts inputs, move shared remote exec/filesystem tooling into core, and keep OpenShell focused on sandbox lifecycle plus optional `mirror` mode.
+- Browser/existing-session: support `browser.profiles.<name>.userDataDir` so Chrome DevTools MCP can attach to Brave, Edge, and other Chromium-based browsers through their own user data directories. (#48170) Thanks @velvet-shark.
+- Plugins/bundles: make enabled bundle MCP servers expose runnable tools in embedded Pi, and default relative bundle MCP launches to the bundle root so marketplace bundles like Context7 work through Pi instead of stopping at config import.
+- Plugins/providers: move OpenRouter, GitHub Copilot, and OpenAI Codex provider/runtime logic into bundled plugins, including dynamic model fallback, runtime auth exchange, stream wrappers, capability hints, and cache-TTL policy.
+- Models/Anthropic Vertex: add core `anthropic-vertex` provider support for Claude via Google Vertex AI, including GCP auth/discovery and main run-path routing. (#43356) Thanks @sallyom and @yossiovadia.
+- Plugins/Chutes: add a bundled Chutes provider with plugin-owned OAuth/API-key auth, dynamic model discovery, and default-on extension wiring. (#41416) Thanks @Veightor.
+- Web tools/Exa: add Exa as a bundled web-search plugin with Exa-native date filters, search-mode selection, and optional content extraction under `plugins.entries.exa.config.webSearch.*`. Thanks @V-Gutierrez and @vincentkoc.
+- Web tools/Tavily: add Tavily as a bundled web-search provider with dedicated `tavily_search` and `tavily_extract` tools, using canonical plugin-owned config under `plugins.entries.tavily.config.webSearch.*`. (#49200) thanks @lakshyaag-tavily.
+- Web tools/Firecrawl: add Firecrawl as an `onboard`/configure search provider via a bundled plugin, expose explicit `firecrawl_search` and `firecrawl_scrape` tools, and align core `web_fetch` fallback behavior with Firecrawl base-URL/env fallback plus guarded endpoint fetches.
+- Models/OpenAI: add native forward-compat support for `gpt-5.4-mini` and `gpt-5.4-nano` in the OpenAI provider catalog, runtime resolution, and reasoning capability gates. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Control UI/chat: add an expand-to-canvas button on assistant chat bubbles and in-app session navigation from Sessions and Cron views. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Control UI/appearance: unify theme border radii across Claw, Knot, and Dash, and add a Roundness slider to the Appearance settings so users can adjust corner radius from sharp to fully rounded. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Control UI/usage: improve usage overview styling, localization, and responsive chat/context-notice presentation, including safer theme color handling and unclipped usage-header menus. (#51951) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Control UI/usage: drop the empty session-detail placeholder card so the usage view stays single-column until a real session detail panel is selected. (#52013) Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Android/mobile: add a system-aware dark theme across onboarding and post-onboarding screens so the app follows the device theme through setup, chat, and voice flows. (#46249) Thanks @sibbl.
+- Android/Talk: move Talk speech synthesis behind gateway `talk.speak`, keep Talk secrets on the gateway, and switch Android playback to final-response audio instead of device-local ElevenLabs streaming. (#50849)
+- Android/nodes: add `callLog.search` plus shared Call Log permission wiring so Android nodes can search recent call history through the gateway. (#44073) Thanks @lixuankai.
+- Android/nodes: add `sms.search` plus shared SMS permission wiring so Android nodes can search device text messages through the gateway. (#48299) Thanks @lixuankai.
+- Telegram/apiRoot: add per-account custom Bot API endpoint support across send, probe, setup, doctor repair, and inbound media download paths so proxied or self-hosted Telegram deployments work end to end. (#48842) Thanks @Cypherm.
+- Telegram/topics: auto-rename DM forum topics on first message with LLM-generated labels, with per-account and per-DM `autoTopicLabel` overrides. (#51502) Thanks @Lukavyi.
+- Telegram/actions: add `topic-edit` for forum-topic renames and icon updates while sharing the same Telegram topic-edit transport used by the plugin runtime. (#47798) Thanks @obviyus.
+- Telegram/error replies: add a default-off `channels.telegram.silentErrorReplies` setting so bot error replies can be delivered silently across regular replies, native commands, and fallback sends. (#19776) Thanks @ImLukeF.
+- Feishu/cards: add structured interactive approval and quick-action launcher cards, preserve callback user and conversation context through routing, and keep legacy card-action fallback behavior so common actions can run without typing raw commands. (#47873) Thanks @Takhoffman.
+- Feishu/ACP: add current-conversation ACP and subagent session binding for supported DMs and topic conversations, including completion delivery back to the originating Feishu conversation. (#46819) Thanks @Takhoffman.
+- Feishu/streaming: add `onReasoningStream` and `onReasoningEnd` support to streaming cards, so `/reasoning stream` renders thinking tokens as markdown blockquotes in the same card — matching the Telegram channel's reasoning lane behavior. (#46029) Thanks @day253.
+- Feishu/cards: add identity-aware structured card headers and note footers for Feishu replies and direct sends, while keeping that presentation wired through the shared outbound identity path. (#29938) Thanks @nszhsl.
+- Plugins/Matrix: add `allowBots` room policy so configured Matrix bot accounts can talk to each other, with optional mention-only gating. Thanks @gumadeiras.
+- Plugins/Matrix: add per-account `allowPrivateNetwork` opt-in for private/internal homeservers, while keeping public cleartext homeservers blocked. Thanks @gumadeiras.
+- Plugins/MiniMax: add MiniMax-M2.7 and MiniMax-M2.7-highspeed models and update the default model from M2.5 to M2.7. (#49691) Thanks @liyuan97.
+- MiniMax/fast mode: map shared `/fast` and `params.fastMode` to MiniMax `-highspeed` models for M2.1, M2.5, and M2.7 API-key and OAuth runs. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Models/MiniMax defaults: raise bundled MiniMax M2.5/M2.7 context-window, max-token, and pricing metadata to the higher defaults shipped by the current upstream Pi SDK. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Models/MiniMax: add bundled `MiniMax-M2`, `MiniMax-M2.1`, and `MiniMax-M2.1-highspeed` catalog entries so OpenClaw's provider metadata and OAuth aliases stay aligned with the current upstream Pi SDK. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/MiniMax: merge the bundled MiniMax API and MiniMax OAuth plugin surfaces into a single default-on `minimax` plugin, while keeping legacy `minimax-portal-auth` config ids aliased for compatibility.
+- Agents/Pi compatibility: align OpenClaw's bundled MiniMax runtime behavior with the current upstream Pi 0.61.1 release so embedded runs stay in sync with the latest published Pi SDK semantics. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Models/GitHub Copilot: allow forward-compat dynamic model ids without code updates, while preserving configured provider and per-model overrides for those synthetic models. (#51325) Thanks @fuller-stack-dev.
+- xAI/models: sync the bundled Grok catalog to current Pi-backed IDs, limits, and pricing metadata, while keeping older Grok fast and 4.20 aliases resolving cleanly at runtime. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- xAI/fast mode: map shared `/fast` and `params.fastMode` to the current xAI Grok fast model family so direct Grok runs can opt into the faster Pi-backed variants. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- CLI/config: expand `config set` with SecretRef and provider builder modes, JSON/batch assignment support, and `--dry-run` validation with structured JSON output. (#49296) Thanks @joshavant.
+- Z.AI/models: sync the bundled GLM catalog to current Pi metadata, including newer 4.5/4.6 model families, updated multimodal entries, and current pricing and token limits. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Mistral/models: sync the bundled default Mistral metadata to current Pi pricing so the built-in default no longer advertises zero-cost usage. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/Xiaomi: switch the bundled Xiaomi provider to the `/v1` OpenAI-compatible endpoint and add MiMo V2 Pro plus MiMo V2 Omni to the built-in catalog. (#49214) thanks @DJjjjhao.
+- Agents/compaction: notify users when followup auto-compaction starts and finishes, keeping those notices out of TTS and preserving reply threading for the real assistant reply. (#38805) Thanks @zidongdesign.
+- Memory/plugins: let the active memory plugin register its own system-prompt section while preserving cache-clear and snapshot-load prompt isolation. (#40126) Thanks @jarimustonen.
+- Gateway/health monitor: add configurable stale-event thresholds and restart limits, plus per-channel and per-account `healthMonitor.enabled` overrides, while keeping the existing global disable path on `gateway.channelHealthCheckMinutes=0`. (#42107) Thanks @rstar327.
+- Plugins/agent integrations: broaden the plugin surface for app-server integrations with channel-aware commands, interactive callbacks, inbound claims, and Discord/Telegram conversation binding support. (#45318) Thanks @huntharo and @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/binding: add `onConversationBindingResolved(...)` so plugins can react immediately after bind approvals or denies without blocking channel interaction acknowledgements. (#48678) Thanks @huntharo.
+- Plugins/context engines: expose `delegateCompactionToRuntime(...)` on the public plugin SDK, refactor the legacy engine to use the shared helper, and clarify `ownsCompaction` delegation semantics for non-owning engines. (#49061) Thanks @jalehman.
+- Plugins/context engines: pass the embedded runner `modelId` into context-engine `assemble()` so plugins can adapt context formatting per model. (#47437) thanks @jscianna.
+- Plugins/context engines: add transcript maintenance rewrites for context engines, preserve active-branch transcript metadata during rewrites, and harden overflow-recovery truncation to rewrite sessions under the normal session write lock. (#51191) Thanks @jalehman.
+- Skills/prompt budget: preserve all registered skills via a compact catalog fallback before dropping entries when the full prompt format exceeds `maxSkillsPromptChars`. (#47553) Thanks @snese.
+- Hooks/workspace: keep repo-local `<workspace>/hooks` disabled until explicitly enabled, block workspace hook name collisions from shadowing bundled/managed/plugin hooks, and treat `hooks.internal.load.extraDirs` as trusted managed hook sources.
+- Security/plugins: reject remote marketplace manifest entries that expand installation outside the cloned marketplace repo, including external git/GitHub sources, HTTP archives, and absolute paths.
+- Gateway/docs: clarify that empty URL input allowlists are treated as unset, document `allowUrl: false` as the deny-all switch, and add regression coverage for the normalization path.
+- secrets: harden read-only SecretRef command paths and diagnostics. (#47794) Thanks @joshavant.
+- Scope message SecretRef resolution and harden doctor/status paths. (#48728) Thanks @joshavant.
+- Build/memory tools: emit `dist/cli/memory-cli.js` as a stable core entry so runtime `memory_search` loading no longer depends on hashed `memory-cli-*` bundle names. (#51759) Thanks @oliviareid-svg.
+- Plugins/testing: add a public `openclaw/plugin-sdk/testing` surface for plugin-author test helpers, and move bundled-extension-only test bridges out of `extensions/` into private repo test helpers.
+- Agents/steering docs: update embedded Pi steering docs and runner comments for the current upstream behavior, where queued steering is injected after the active assistant turn finishes its tool calls instead of skipping the remaining tools mid-turn. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Doctor/refactor: start splitting doctor provider checks into `src/commands/doctor/providers/*` by extracting Telegram first-run and group allowlist warnings into a provider-specific module, keeping the current setup guidance and warning behavior intact. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Refactor/channels: remove the legacy channel shim directories and point channel-specific imports directly at the extension-owned implementations. (#45967) Thanks @scoootscooob.
+- Docs/Zalo: clarify the Marketplace-bot support matrix and config guidance so the Zalo channel docs match current Bot Creator behavior more closely. (#47552) Thanks @No898.
+- Docs/plugins: add the community DingTalk plugin listing to the docs catalog. (#29913) Thanks @sliverp.
+- Docs/plugins: add the community QQbot plugin listing to the docs catalog. (#29898) Thanks @sliverp.

+### Fixes
+
+- Web tools/search provider lists: keep onboarding, configure, and docs provider lists alphabetical while preserving the separate runtime auto-detect precedence used for credential-based provider selection.
+- Media/Windows security: block remote-host `file://` media URLs and UNC/network paths before local filesystem resolution in core media loading and adjacent prompt/sandbox attachment seams, so the next release no longer allows structured local-media inputs to trigger outbound SMB credential handshakes on Windows. Thanks @RacerZ-fighting for reporting.
+- Gateway/discovery: fail closed on unresolved Bonjour and DNS-SD service endpoints in CLI discovery, onboarding, and `gateway status` so TXT-only hints can no longer steer routing or SSH auto-target selection. Thanks @nexrin for reporting.
+- Security/pairing: bind iOS setup codes to the intended node profile and reject first-use bootstrap redemption that asks for broader roles or scopes. Thanks @tdjackey.
+- Memory/core tools: register `memory_search` and `memory_get` independently so one unavailable memory tool no longer suppresses the other in new sessions. (#50198) Thanks @artwalker.
+- Web tools/Exa: align the bundled Exa plugin with the current Exa API by supporting newer search types and richer `contents` options, while fixing the result-count cap to honor Exa's higher limit. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/Matrix: move bundled plugin `KeyedAsyncQueue` imports onto the stable `plugin-sdk/core` surface so Matrix Docker/runtime builds do not depend on the brittle keyed-async-queue subpath. Thanks @ecohash-co and @vincentkoc.
+- Nostr/security: enforce inbound DM policy before decrypt, route Nostr DMs through the standard reply pipeline, and add pre-crypto rate and size guards so unknown senders cannot bypass pairing or force unbounded crypto work. Thanks @kuranikaran.
+- Synology Chat/security: keep reply delivery bound to stable numeric `user_id` by default, and gate mutable username/nickname recipient lookup behind `dangerouslyAllowNameMatching` with new regression coverage. Thanks @nexrin.
+- Agents/default timeout: raise the shared default agent timeout from `600s` to `48h` so long-running ACP and agent sessions do not fail unless you configure a shorter limit.
 - Gateway/startup: load bundled channel plugins from compiled `dist/extensions` entries in built installs, so gateway boot no longer recompiles bundled extension TypeScript on every startup and WhatsApp-class cold starts drop back to seconds instead of tens of seconds or worse. (#47560) Thanks @ngutman.
-- Agents/openai-responses: strip `prompt_cache_key` and `prompt_cache_retention` for non-OpenAI-compatible Responses endpoints while keeping them on direct OpenAI and Azure OpenAI paths, so third-party OpenAI-compatible providers no longer reject those requests with HTTP 400. (#49877) Thanks @ShaunTsai.
-- Plugins/context engines: enforce owner-aware context-engine registration on both loader and public SDK paths so plugins cannot spoof privileged ownership, claim the core `legacy` engine id, or overwrite an existing engine id through direct SDK imports. (#47595) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Browser/remote CDP: honor strict browser SSRF policy during remote CDP reachability and `/json/version` discovery checks, redact sensitive `cdpUrl` tokens from status output, and warn when remote CDP targets private/internal hosts.
-- Gateway/plugins: pin runtime webhook routes to the gateway startup registry so channel webhooks keep working across plugin-registry churn, and make plugin auth + dispatch resolve routes from the same live HTTP-route registry. (#47902) Fixes #46924 and #47041. Thanks @steipete.
-- Gateway/auth: ignore spoofed loopback hops in trusted forwarding chains and block device approvals that request scopes above the caller session. (#46800) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/restart: defer externally signaled unmanaged restarts through the in-process idle drain, and preserve the restored subagent run as remap fallback during orphan recovery so resumed sessions do not duplicate work. (#47719) Thanks @joeykrug.
-- Control UI/session routing: preserve established external delivery routes when webchat views or sends in externally originated sessions, so subagent completions still return to the original channel instead of the dashboard. (#47797) Thanks @brokemac79.
-- Configure/startup: move outbound send-deps resolution into a lightweight helper so `openclaw configure` no longer stalls after the banner while eagerly loading channel plugins. (#46301) Thanks @scoootscooob.
+- Gateway/startup: prewarm the configured primary model before channel startup and retry one transient provider-runtime miss so the first Telegram or Discord message after boot no longer fails with `Unknown model: openai-codex/gpt-5.4`. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - CLI/startup: lazy-load channel add and root help startup paths to trim avoidable RSS and help latency on constrained hosts. (#46784) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- CLI/onboarding: import static provider definitions directly for onboarding model/config helpers so those paths no longer pull provider discovery just for built-in defaults. (#47467) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Configure/startup: move outbound send-deps resolution into a lightweight helper so `openclaw configure` no longer stalls after the banner while eagerly loading channel plugins. (#46301) Thanks @scoootscooob.
 - CLI/auth choice: lazy-load plugin/provider fallback resolution so mapped auth choices stay on the static path and only unknown choices pay the heavy provider load. (#47495) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- CLI: avoid loading provider discovery during startup model normalization. (#46522) Thanks @ItsAditya-xyz and @vincentkoc.
+- Gateway/Discord startup: load only configured channel plugins during gateway boot, and lazy-load Discord provider/session runtime setup so startup stops importing unrelated providers and trims cold-start delay. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/inbound: lazy-load media and link understanding for plain-text turns and cache synced auth stores by auth-file state so ordinary inbound replies avoid unnecessary startup churn. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/openai-compatible tool calls: deduplicate repeated tool call ids across live assistant messages and replayed history so OpenAI-compatible backends no longer reject duplicate `tool_call_id` values with HTTP 400. (#40996) Thanks @xaeon2026.
+- Agents/openai-responses: strip `prompt_cache_key` and `prompt_cache_retention` for non-OpenAI-compatible Responses endpoints while keeping them on direct OpenAI and Azure OpenAI paths, so third-party OpenAI-compatible providers no longer reject those requests with HTTP 400. (#49877) Thanks @ShaunTsai.
+- Models/openai-completions: default non-native OpenAI-compatible providers to omit tool-definition `strict` fields unless users explicitly opt back in, so tool calling keeps working on providers that reject that option. (#45497) Thanks @sahancava.
+- Models/OpenRouter runtime capabilities: fetch uncatalogued OpenRouter model metadata on first use so newly added vision models keep image input instead of silently degrading to text-only, with top-level capability field fallbacks for `/api/v1/models`. (#45824) Thanks @DJjjjhao.
+- Control UI/session routing: preserve established external delivery routes when webchat views or sends in externally originated sessions, so subagent completions still return to the original channel instead of the dashboard. (#47797) Thanks @brokemac79.
+- Telegram/replies: set `allow_sending_without_reply` on reply-targeted sends and media-error notices so deleted parent messages no longer drop otherwise valid replies. (#52524) Thanks @moltbot886.
+- Telegram/polling: hard-timeout stuck `getUpdates` requests so wedged network paths fail over sooner instead of waiting for the polling stall watchdog. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Android/location: make current-location requests drop late callbacks after timeout instead of crashing with `Already resumed`. (#52318) Thanks @Kaneki-x.
+- Android/pairing: resolve portless secure setup URLs to `443` while preserving direct cleartext gateway defaults and explicit `:80` manual endpoints in onboarding. (#43540) Thanks @fmercurio.
+- Android/canvas: ignore bridge messages from pages outside the bundled scaffold and trusted A2UI surfaces. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- CLI/status: keep `status --json` stdout clean by skipping plugin compatibility scans that were not rendered in the JSON payload. (#52449) Thanks @cgdusek.
+- WhatsApp/reconnect: restore the append recency filter in the extension inbox monitor and handle protobuf `Long` timestamps correctly, so fresh post-reconnect append messages are processed while stale history sync stays suppressed. (#42588) Thanks @MonkeyLeeT.
+- WhatsApp/login: wait for pending creds writes before reopening after Baileys `515` pairing restarts in both QR login and `channels login` flows, and keep the restart coverage pinned to the real wrapped error shape plus per-account creds queues. (#27910) Thanks @asyncjason.
+- Android/canvas: serialize A2UI action-status event strings before evaluating WebView JS, so action ids and multiline errors do not break the callback dispatch. (#43784) Thanks @Kaneki-x.
+- Android/camera: recycle intermediate and final snap bitmaps in `camera.snap` so repeated captures do not leak native image memory. (#41902) Thanks @Kaneki-x.
+- Control UI/logging: make browser-safe logger imports avoid eager temp-dir resolution so the bundled Control UI no longer crashes to a blank screen when logging reaches `tmp-openclaw-dir`. (#48469) Fixes #48062. Thanks @7inspire.
+- Control UI/chat sessions: show human-readable labels in the grouped session dropdown again, keep unique scoped fallbacks when metadata is missing, and disambiguate duplicate labels only when needed. (#45130) Thanks @luzhidong.
+- Telegram/replies: ignore malformed non-string reply text and caption fields when describing reply context, so unexpected Telegram reply payloads no longer break inbound context assembly. (#50500) Thanks @p3nchan.
+- Control UI/dashboard: preserve structured gateway shutdown reasons across restart disconnects so config-triggered restarts no longer fall back to `disconnected (1006): no reason`. (#46580) Fixes #46532. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Android/chat: theme the thinking dropdown and TLS trust dialogs explicitly so popup surfaces match the active app theme instead of falling back to mismatched Material defaults.
+- Node/startup: remove leftover debug `console.log("node host PATH: ...")` that printed the resolved PATH on every `openclaw node run` invocation. (#46515) Fixes #46411. Thanks @ademczuk.
+- Slack/startup: harden `@slack/bolt` import interop across current bundled runtime shapes so Slack monitors no longer crash with `App is not a constructor` after plugin-sdk bundling changes. (#45953) Thanks @merc1305.
+- Control UI/model switching: preserve the selected provider prefix when switching models from the chat dropdown, so multi-provider setups no longer send `anthropic/gpt-5.2`-style mismatches when the user picked `openai/gpt-5.2`. (#47581) Thanks @chrishham.
+- Control UI/storage: scope persisted settings keys by gateway base path, with migration from the legacy shared key, so multiple gateways under one domain stop overwriting each other's dashboard preferences. (#47932) Thanks @bobBot-claw.
+- Control UI/overview: keep the language dropdown aligned with the persisted locale during dashboard startup so refreshing the page does not fall back to English before locale hydration completes. (#48019) Thanks @git-jxj.
+- macOS/node service startup: use `openclaw node start/stop --json` from the Mac app instead of the removed `openclaw service node ...` command shape, so current CLI installs expose the full node exec surface again. (#46843) Fixes #43171. Thanks @Br1an67.
+- ACP/gateway startup: use direct Telegram and Discord startup/status helpers instead of routing probes through the plugin runtime, and prepend the selected daemon Node bin dir to service PATH so plugin-local installs can still find `npm` and `pnpm`.
+- WhatsApp/active-listener: pin the active listener registry to a `globalThis` singleton so split WhatsApp bundle chunks share one listener map and outbound sends stop missing the registered session. (#47433) Thanks @clawdia67.
+- Gateway/probe: honor caller `--timeout` for active local loopback probes in `gateway status`, keep inactive remote-mode loopback probes fast, and clamp probe timers to JS-safe bounds so slow local/container gateways stop reporting false timeouts. (#47533) Thanks @MonkeyLeeT.
+- Config/startup: keep bundled web-search allowlist compatibility on a lightweight manifest path so config validation no longer pulls bundled web-search registry imports into startup, while still avoiding accidental auto-allow of config-loaded override plugins. (#51574) Thanks @RichardCao.
+- Gateway/chat.send: persist uploaded image references across reloads and compaction without delaying first-turn dispatch or double-submitting the same image to vision models. (#51324) Thanks @fuller-stack-dev.
+- Android/canvas: recycle captured and scaled snapshot bitmaps so repeated canvas snapshots do not leak native image memory. (#41889) Thanks @Kaneki-x.
+- Android/theme: switch status bar icon contrast with the active system theme so Android light mode no longer leaves unreadable light icons over the app header. (#51098) Thanks @goweii.
+- Gateway/openresponses: preserve assistant commentary and session continuity across hosted-tool `/v1/responses` turns, and emit streamed tool-call payloads before finalization so client tool loops stay resumable. (#52171) Thanks @CharZhou.
+- Android/Talk: serialize `TalkModeManager` player teardown so rapid interrupt/restart cycles stop double-releasing or overlapping TTS playback. (#52310) Thanks @Kaneki-x.
+- WhatsApp/reconnect: preserve the last inbound timestamp across reconnect attempts so the watchdog can still recycle linked-but-dead listeners after a restart instead of leaving them stuck connected forever.
+- Gateway/network discovery: guard LAN, tailnet, and pairing interface enumeration so WSL2 and restricted hosts degrade to missing-address fallbacks instead of crashing on `uv_interface_addresses` errors. (#44180, #47590)
+- Gateway/bonjour: suppress the non-fatal `@homebridge/ciao` IPv4-loss assertion during interface churn so WiFi/VPN/sleep-wake changes no longer take down the gateway. (#38628, #47159, #52431)
+- Browser/launch: stop forcing an extra blank tab on browser launch so managed browser startup no longer opens an unwanted empty page. (#52451) Thanks @rogerdigital.
+- CLI/onboarding: import static provider definitions directly for onboarding model/config helpers so those paths no longer pull provider discovery just for built-in defaults. (#47467) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/exec: return plain-text failed tool output for timeouts and other non-success exec outcomes so models no longer parrot raw JSON error payloads back to users. (#52508) Thanks @martingarramon.
+- CLI/config: make `config set --strict-json` enforce real JSON, prefer `JSON.parse` with JSON5 fallback for machine-written cron/subagent stores, and relabel raw config surfaces as `JSON/JSON5` to match actual compatibility. Related: #48415, #43127, #14529, #21332. Thanks @adhitShet and @vincentkoc.
+- CLI/Ollama onboarding: keep the interactive model picker for explicit `openclaw onboard --auth-choice ollama` runs so setup still selects a default model without reintroducing pre-picker auto-pulls. (#49249) Thanks @BruceMacD.
+- CLI/configure: clarify fresh-setup memory-search warnings so they say semantic recall needs at least one embedding provider, and scope the initial model allowlist picker to the provider selected in configure. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Mattermost/threading: honor `replyToMode: "off"` for already-threaded inbound posts so threaded follow-ups can fall back to top-level replies when configured. (#52543) Thanks @RichardCao.
+- Onboarding/custom providers: store Azure OpenAI and Azure AI Foundry custom endpoints with the Responses API config shape, normalized `/openai/v1` base URLs, and Azure-safe defaults so TUI and agent runs work after setup. (#49543) Thanks @kunalk16.
+- CLI/completion: reduce recursive completion-script string churn and fix nested PowerShell command-path matching so generated nested completions resolve on PowerShell too. (#45537) Thanks @yiShanXin and @vincentkoc.
+- macOS/launch at login: stop emitting `KeepAlive` for the desktop app launch agent so OpenClaw no longer relaunches immediately after a manual quit while launch at login remains enabled. (#40213) Thanks @stablegenius49.
+- Mattermost/DM send: retry transient direct-channel creation failures for DM deliveries, with configurable backoff and per-request timeout. (#42398) Thanks @JonathanJing.
+- Secrets/exec refs: require explicit `--allow-exec` for `secrets apply` write plans that contain exec SecretRefs/providers, and align audit/configure/apply dry-run behavior to skip exec checks unless opted in to prevent unexpected command side effects. (#49417) Thanks @restriction and @joshavant.
+- Signal/runtime API: re-export `SignalAccountConfig` so Signal account resolution type-checks again. (#49470) Thanks @scoootscooob.
+- Google Chat/runtime API: thin the private runtime barrel onto the curated public SDK surface while keeping public Google Chat exports intact. (#49504) Thanks @scoootscooob.
+- Onboarding/custom providers: keep Azure AI Foundry `*.services.ai.azure.com` custom endpoints on the selected compatibility path instead of forcing Responses, so chat-completions Foundry models still work after setup. Fixes #50528. (#50535) Thanks @obviyus.
+- make `openclaw update status` explicitly say `up to date` when the local version already matches npm latest, while keeping the availability logic unchanged. (#51409) Thanks @dongzhenye.
+- Agents/embedded transport errors: distinguish common network failures like connection refused, DNS lookup failure, and interrupted sockets from true timeouts in embedded-run user messaging and lifecycle diagnostics. (#51419) Thanks @scoootscooob.
+- Security/pairing: bind iOS setup codes to the intended node profile and reject first-use bootstrap redemption that asks for broader roles or scopes. Thanks @tdjackey.
+- Nostr/security: enforce inbound DM policy before decrypt, route Nostr DMs through the standard reply pipeline, and add pre-crypto rate and size guards so unknown senders cannot bypass pairing or force unbounded crypto work. Thanks @kuranikaran.
+- Synology Chat/security: keep reply delivery bound to stable numeric `user_id` by default, and gate mutable username/nickname recipient lookup behind `dangerouslyAllowNameMatching` with new regression coverage. Thanks @nexrin.
+- Browser/node proxy: enforce `nodeHost.browserProxy.allowProfiles` across `query.profile` and `body.profile`, block proxy-side profile create/delete when the allowlist is set, and keep the default full proxy surface when the allowlist is empty.
 - Security/device pairing: harden `device.token.rotate` deny handling by keeping public failures generic while logging internal deny reasons and preserving approved-baseline enforcement. (`GHSA-7jrw-x62h-64p8`)
+- Security/exec safe bins: remove `jq` from the default safe-bin allowlist and fail closed on the `jq` `env` builtin when operators explicitly opt `jq` back in, so `jq -n env` cannot dump host secrets without an explicit trust path. Thanks @gladiator9797 for reporting.
+- Security/exec approvals: escape blank Hangul filler code points in approval prompts across gateway/chat and the macOS native approval UI so visually empty Unicode padding cannot hide reviewed command text.
+- Security/exec approvals: unify transparent dispatch-wrapper handling across resolution and allow-always persistence so wrapper metadata cannot silently drift and broaden approvals.
+- Security/exec: harden macOS allowlist resolution against wrapper and `env` spoofing, require fresh approval for inline interpreter eval with `tools.exec.strictInlineEval`, wrap Discord guild message bodies as untrusted external content, and add audit findings for risky exec approval and open-channel combinations.
+- Security/network: harden explicit-proxy SSRF pinning by translating target-hop transport hints onto HTTPS proxy tunnels and failing closed for plain HTTP guarded fetches that cannot preserve pinned DNS.
+- Security/Synology Chat: require explicit per-account webhook paths for multi-account setups by default, reject duplicate exact webhook paths fail-closed, and keep inherited-path behavior behind an explicit dangerous opt-in so shared routes can no longer collapse DM policy contexts across accounts. Thanks @tdjackey for reporting.
+- Browser/remote CDP: honor strict browser SSRF policy during remote CDP reachability and `/json/version` discovery checks, redact sensitive `cdpUrl` tokens from status output, and warn when remote CDP targets private/internal hosts.
+- Media/security: bound remote-media error-body snippets with the same streaming caps and idle timeouts as successful downloads, so malicious HTTP error responses cannot force unbounded buffering before OpenClaw throws.
+- Gateway/auth: ignore spoofed loopback hops in trusted forwarding chains and block device approvals that request scopes above the caller session. (#46800) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Gateway/auth: clear self-declared scopes for device-less trusted-proxy Control UI sessions so proxy-authenticated connects cannot claim admin or secrets scopes without a bound device identity.
+- Hardening: refresh stale device pairing requests and pending metadata (#50695) Thanks @smaeljaish771 and @joshavant.
+- Gateway/auth: add regression coverage that keeps device-less trusted-proxy Control UI sessions off privileged pairing approval RPCs. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Media/Windows security: block remote-host `file://` media URLs and UNC/network paths before local filesystem resolution in core media loading and adjacent prompt/sandbox attachment seams, so the next release no longer allows structured local-media inputs to trigger outbound SMB credential handshakes on Windows. Thanks @RacerZ-fighting for reporting.
+- Web tools/Exa: align the bundled Exa plugin with the current Exa API by supporting newer search types and richer `contents` options, while fixing the result-count cap to honor Exa's higher limit. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/default timeout: raise the shared default agent timeout from `600s` to `48h` so long-running ACP and agent sessions do not fail unless you configure a shorter limit.
+- CLI: avoid loading provider discovery during startup model normalization. (#46522) Thanks @ItsAditya-xyz and @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/Telegram: avoid rebuilding the full model catalog on ordinary inbound replies so Telegram message handling no longer pays multi-second core startup latency before reply generation. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/models: cache `models.json` readiness by config and auth-file state so embedded runner turns stop paying repeated model-catalog startup work before replies. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Gateway/status: tolerate network interface discovery failures in status, onboarding control-UI links, and self-presence display paths so those surfaces fall back cleanly instead of crashing. (#52195) Thanks @meng-clb.
+- Gateway/Linux: auto-detect nvm-managed Node TLS CA bundle needs before CLI startup and refresh installed services that are missing `NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS`. (#51146) Thanks @GodsBoy.
+- Google auth/Node 25: patch `gaxios` to use native fetch without injecting `globalThis.window`, while translating proxy and mTLS transport settings so Google Vertex and Google Chat auth keep working on Node 25. (#47914) Thanks @pdd-cli.
+- Gateway/status: resolve env-backed `gateway.auth.*` SecretRefs before read-only probe auth checks so status no longer reports false probe failures when auth is configured through SecretRef. (#52513) Thanks @CodeForgeNet.
+- Gateway/plugins: pin runtime webhook routes to the gateway startup registry so channel webhooks keep working across plugin-registry churn, and make plugin auth + dispatch resolve routes from the same live HTTP-route registry. (#47902) Fixes #46924 and #47041. Thanks @steipete.
+- Gateway/restart: defer externally signaled unmanaged restarts through the in-process idle drain, and preserve the restored subagent run as remap fallback during orphan recovery so resumed sessions do not duplicate work. (#47719) Thanks @joeykrug.
+- Telegram/setup: seed fresh setups with `channels.telegram.groups["*"].requireMention=true` so new bots stay mention-gated in groups unless you explicitly open them up. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Inbound policy hardening: tighten callback and webhook sender checks across Mattermost and Google Chat, match Nextcloud Talk rooms by stable room token, and treat explicit empty Twitch allowlists as deny-all. (#46787) Thanks @zpbrent, @ijxpwastaken and @vincentkoc.
 - Webhooks/runtime: move auth earlier and tighten pre-auth body limits and timeouts across bundled webhook handlers, including slow-body handling for Mattermost slash commands. (#46802) Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Email/webhook wrapping: sanitize sender and subject metadata before external-content wrapping so metadata fields cannot break the wrapper structure. (#46816) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Gateway/chat: only reap orphaned stale chat buffers after the abort controller is gone, and clear abort-time streaming metadata so long-running sessions do not lose buffered output while stale maps still get reclaimed. (#52428) Thanks @karanuppal.
 - Tools/apply-patch: revalidate workspace-only delete and directory targets immediately before mutating host paths. (#46803) Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Gateway/config views: strip embedded credentials from URL-based endpoint fields before returning read-only account and config snapshots. (#46799) Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - ACP/approvals: use canonical tool identity for prompting decisions and fail closed when conflicting tool identity hints are present. (#46817) Thanks @zpbrent and @vincentkoc.
 - ACP: require admin scope for mutating internal actions. (#46789) Thanks @tdjackey and @vincentkoc.
 - Subagents/follow-ups: require the same controller ownership checks for `/subagents send` as other control actions, so leaf sessions cannot message nested child runs they do not control. (#46801) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Web search/onboarding: clarify provider labels, key prompts, and missing-key notes so setup/configure more clearly names the required provider credential for Gemini, Kimi, Grok, Brave Search, Firecrawl, Perplexity, and Tavily. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - macOS/canvas actions: keep unattended local agent actions on trusted in-app canvas surfaces only, and stop exposing the deep-link fallback key to arbitrary page scripts. (#46790) Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Agents/compaction: extend the enclosing run deadline once while compaction is actively in flight, and abort the underlying SDK compaction on timeout/cancel so large-session compactions stop freezing mid-run. (#46889) Thanks @asyncjason.
-- Agents/openai-compatible tool calls: deduplicate repeated tool call ids across live assistant messages and replayed history so OpenAI-compatible backends no longer reject duplicate `tool_call_id` values with HTTP 400. (#40996) Thanks @xaeon2026.
-- Models/openai-completions: default non-native OpenAI-compatible providers to omit tool-definition `strict` fields unless users explicitly opt back in, so tool calling keeps working on providers that reject that option. (#45497) Thanks @sahancava.
-- Models/OpenRouter runtime capabilities: fetch uncatalogued OpenRouter model metadata on first use so newly added vision models keep image input instead of silently degrading to text-only, with top-level capability field fallbacks for `/api/v1/models`. (#45824) Thanks @DJjjjhao.
+- Gateway/Telegram shutdown: abort stalled Telegram polling fetches on shutdown, clean up per-cycle abort listeners, and keep the in-process watchdog ahead of supervisor stop timeouts so SIGTERM no longer leaves zombie gateways behind. (#51242) Thanks @juliabush.
+- Telegram/setup: warn when setup leaves DMs on pairing without an allowlist, and show valid account-scoped remediation commands. (#50710) Thanks @ernestodeoliveira.
+- Doctor/Telegram: replace the fresh-install empty group-allowlist false positive with first-run guidance that explains DM pairing approval and the next group setup steps, so new Telegram installs get actionable setup help instead of a broken-config warning. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Doctor/extensions: keep Matrix DM `allowFrom` repairs on the canonical `dm.allowFrom` path and stop treating Zalouser group sender gating as if it fell back to `allowFrom`, so doctor warnings and `--fix` stay aligned with runtime access control. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Doctor/refactor: centralize built-in channel doctor semantics in one static capability registry with conservative fallback behavior for unknown/external channels, so future extension changes stop depending on scattered shared string checks. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Channels/plugins: keep shared interactive payloads merge-ready by fixing Slack custom callback routing and repeat-click dedupe, allowing interactive-only sends, and preserving ordered Discord shared text blocks. (#47715) Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Slack/interactive replies: preserve `channelData.slack.blocks` through live DM delivery and preview-finalized edits so Block Kit button and select directives render instead of falling back to raw text. (#45890) Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Feishu/actions: expand the runtime action surface with message read/edit, explicit thread replies, pinning, and operator-facing chat/member inspection so Feishu can operate more of the workspace directly. (#47968) Thanks @Takhoffman.
 - Feishu/topic threads: fetch full thread context, including prior bot replies, when starting a topic-thread session so follow-up turns in Feishu topics keep the right conversation state. (#45254) Thanks @Coobiw.
 - Feishu/media: keep native image, file, audio, and video/media handling aligned across outbound sends, inbound downloads, thread replies, directory/action aliases, and capability docs so unsupported areas are explicit instead of implied. (#47968) Thanks @Takhoffman.
 - Feishu/webhooks: harden signed webhook verification to use constant-time signature comparison and keep malformed short signatures fail-closed in webhook E2E coverage.
-- WhatsApp/reconnect: restore the append recency filter in the extension inbox monitor and handle protobuf `Long` timestamps correctly, so fresh post-reconnect append messages are processed while stale history sync stays suppressed. (#42588) Thanks @MonkeyLeeT.
-- WhatsApp/login: wait for pending creds writes before reopening after Baileys `515` pairing restarts in both QR login and `channels login` flows, and keep the restart coverage pinned to the real wrapped error shape plus per-account creds queues. (#27910) Thanks @asyncjason.
 - Telegram/message send: forward `--force-document` through the `sendPayload` path as well as `sendMedia`, so Telegram payload sends with `channelData` keep uploading images as documents instead of silently falling back to compressed photo sends. (#47119) Thanks @thepagent.
 - Telegram/message chunking: preserve spaces, paragraph separators, and word boundaries when HTML overflow rechunking splits formatted replies. (#47274) Thanks @obviyus.
 - Z.AI/onboarding: detect a working default model even for explicit `zai-coding-*` endpoint choices, so Coding Plan setup can keep the selected endpoint while defaulting to `glm-5` when available or `glm-4.7` as fallback. (#45969) Thanks @obviyus.
+- CI/onboarding smoke: surface `ensure-base-commit` fetch failures as workflow warnings and fail the onboarding Docker smoke when expected setup prompts drift instead of continuing silently. Thanks @Takhoffman.
 - Z.AI/onboarding: add `glm-5-turbo` to the default Z.AI provider catalog so onboarding-generated configs expose the new model alongside the existing GLM defaults. (#46670) Thanks @tomsun28.
 - Zalo Personal/group gating: stop reapplying `dmPolicy.allowFrom` as a sender gate for already-allowlisted groups when `groupAllowFrom` is unset, so any member of an allowed group can trigger replies while DMs stay restricted. (#46663) Fixes #40146. Thanks @Takhoffman.
 - Zalo/plugin runtime: export `resolveClientIp` from `openclaw/plugin-sdk/zalo` so installed builds no longer crash on startup when the webhook monitor loads from the packaged extension instead of the monorepo source tree. (#46549) Thanks @No898.
 - Docker/live tests: mount external CLI auth homes into writable container copies, derive Codex OAuth expiry from JWT `exp`, refresh synced CLI creds instead of trusting stale cached expiry, and make gateway live probes wait on transcript output so `pnpm test:docker:all` stays green in Linux.
-- Plugins/install precedence: keep bundled plugins ahead of auto-discovered globals by default, but let an explicitly installed plugin record win its own duplicate-id tie so installed channel plugins load from `~/.openclaw/extensions` after `openclaw plugins install`. (#46722) Thanks @Takhoffman.
-- Control UI/logging: make browser-safe logger imports avoid eager temp-dir resolution so the bundled Control UI no longer crashes to a blank screen when logging reaches `tmp-openclaw-dir`. (#48469) Fixes #48062. Thanks @7inspire.
-- Plugins/scoped ids: preserve scoped plugin ids during install and config keying, and keep bundled plugins ahead of discovered duplicate ids by default so `@scope/name` plugins no longer collide with unscoped installs. (#47413) Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Gateway/watch mode: restart on bundled-plugin package and manifest metadata changes, rebuild `dist` for extension source and `tsdown.config.ts` changes, and still ignore extension docs. (#47571) Thanks @gumadeiras.
 - Gateway/watch mode: recreate bundled plugin runtime metadata after clean or stale `dist` states, so `pnpm gateway:watch` no longer fails on missing `dist/extensions/*/openclaw.plugin.json` manifests after a rebuild. Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Control UI/chat sessions: show human-readable labels in the grouped session dropdown again, keep unique scoped fallbacks when metadata is missing, and disambiguate duplicate labels only when needed. (#45130) Thanks @luzhidong.
 - Control UI: scope persisted session selection per gateway, prevent stale session bleed across tokenized gateway opens, and cap stored gateway session history. (#47453) Thanks @sallyom.
-- Control UI/dashboard: preserve structured gateway shutdown reasons across restart disconnects so config-triggered restarts no longer fall back to `disconnected (1006): no reason`. (#46580) Fixes #46532. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Android/chat: theme the thinking dropdown and TLS trust dialogs explicitly so popup surfaces match the active app theme instead of falling back to mismatched Material defaults.
+- Models/OpenAI Codex OAuth: start the remote manual-input race for Codex login and keep the pasted-input prompt aligned with the actual accepted values, so remote/VPS auth no longer stalls waiting on an unreachable localhost callback. (#51631) Thanks @cash-echo-bot.
 - Group mention gating: reject invalid and unsafe nested-repetition `mentionPatterns`, reuse the shared safe config-regex compiler across mention stripping and detection, and cache strip-time regex compilation so noisy groups avoid repeated recompiles.
 - Browser/profiles: drop the auto-created `chrome-relay` browser profile; users who need the Chrome extension relay must now create their own profile via `openclaw browser create-profile`. (#46596) Fixes #45777. Thanks @odysseus0.
 - CI/channel test routing: move the built-in channel suites into `test:channels` and keep them out of `test:extensions`, so extension CI no longer fails after the channel migration while targeted test routing still sends Slack, Signal, and iMessage suites to the right lane. (#46066) Thanks @scoootscooob.
-- Docs/Mintlify: fix MDX marker syntax on Perplexity, Model Providers, Moonshot, and exec approvals pages so local docs preview no longer breaks rendering or leaves stale pages unpublished. (#46695) Thanks @velvet-shark.
 - Gateway/config validation: stop treating the implicit default memory slot as a required explicit plugin config, so startup no longer fails with `plugins.slots.memory: plugin not found: memory-core` when `memory-core` was only inferred. (#47494) Thanks @ngutman.
 - Tlon: honor explicit empty allowlists and defer cite expansion. (#46788) Thanks @zpbrent and @vincentkoc.
 - Tlon/DM auth: defer cited-message expansion until after DM authorization and owner command handling, so unauthorized DMs and owner approval/admin commands no longer trigger cross-channel cite fetches before the deny or command path.
-- Docs/security audit: spell out that `gateway.controlUi.allowedOrigins: ["*"]` is an explicit allow-all browser-origin policy and should be avoided outside tightly controlled local testing.
-- Gateway/auth: clear self-declared scopes for device-less trusted-proxy Control UI sessions so proxy-authenticated connects cannot claim admin or secrets scopes without a bound device identity.
+- Gateway/agent events: stop broadcasting false end-of-run `seq gap` errors to clients, and isolate node-driven ingress turns with per-turn run IDs so stale tail events cannot leak into later session runs. (#43751) Thanks @caesargattuso.
 - Nodes/pending actions: re-check queued foreground actions against the current node command policy before returning them to the node. (#46815) Thanks @zpbrent and @vincentkoc.
-- Node/startup: remove leftover debug `console.log("node host PATH: ...")` that printed the resolved PATH on every `openclaw node run` invocation. (#46515) Fixes #46411. Thanks @ademczuk.
-- CLI/completion: reduce recursive completion-script string churn and fix nested PowerShell command-path matching so generated nested completions resolve on PowerShell too. (#45537) Thanks @yiShanXin and @vincentkoc.
-- Slack/startup: harden `@slack/bolt` import interop across current bundled runtime shapes so Slack monitors no longer crash with `App is not a constructor` after plugin-sdk bundling changes. (#45953) Thanks @merc1305.
 - Windows/gateway status: accept `schtasks` `Last Result` output as an alias for `Last Run Result`, so running scheduled-task installs no longer show `Runtime: unknown`. (#47844) Thanks @MoerAI.
 - ACP/acpx: resolve the bundled plugin root from the actual plugin directory so plugin-local installs stay under `dist/extensions/acpx` instead of escaping to `dist/extensions` and failing runtime setup. (#47601) Thanks @ngutman.
+- Gateway/WS handshake: raise the default pre-auth handshake timeout to 10 seconds and add `OPENCLAW_HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT_MS` as a runtime override so busy local gateways stop dropping healthy CLI connections at 3 seconds. (#49262) Thanks @fuller-stack-dev.
 - Gateway/websocket pairing bypass for disabled auth: skip device-pairing enforcement for Control UI operator sessions when `gateway.auth.mode=none`, so reverse-proxied dashboards no longer get stuck on `pairing required` despite auth being explicitly disabled. (#47148) Thanks @ademczuk.
-- Control UI/model switching: preserve the selected provider prefix when switching models from the chat dropdown, so multi-provider setups no longer send `anthropic/gpt-5.2`-style mismatches when the user picked `openai/gpt-5.2`. (#47581) Thanks @chrishham.
-- Control UI/storage: scope persisted settings keys by gateway base path, with migration from the legacy shared key, so multiple gateways under one domain stop overwriting each other's dashboard preferences. (#47932) Thanks @bobBot-claw.
 - Agents/usage tracking: stop forcing `supportsUsageInStreaming: false` on non-native OpenAI-completions providers so compatible backends report token usage and cost again instead of showing all zeros. (#46500) Fixes #46142. Thanks @ademczuk.
 - ACP/acpx: keep plugin-local backend installs under `extensions/acpx` in live repo checkouts so rebuilds no longer delete the runtime binary, and avoid package-lock churn during runtime repair.
-- Plugins/subagents: preserve gateway-owned plugin subagent access across runtime, tool, and embedded-runner load paths so gateway plugin tools and context engines can still spawn and manage subagents after the loader cache split. (#46648) Thanks @jalehman.
-- Control UI/overview: keep the language dropdown aligned with the persisted locale during dashboard startup so refreshing the page does not fall back to English before locale hydration completes. (#48019) Thanks @git-jxj.
 - Agents/compaction: rerun transcript repair after `session.compact()` so orphaned `tool_result` blocks cannot survive compaction and break later Anthropic requests. (#16095) thanks @claw-sylphx.
 - Agents/compaction: trigger overflow recovery from the tool-result guard once post-compaction context still exceeds the safe threshold, so long tool loops compact before the next model call hard-fails. (#29371) thanks @keshav55.
 - macOS/exec approvals: harden exec-host request HMAC verification to use a timing-safe compare and keep malformed or truncated signatures fail-closed in focused IPC auth coverage.
 - Gateway/exec approvals: surface requested env override keys in gateway-host approval prompts so operators can review surviving env context without inheriting noisy base host env.
 - Telegram/network: preserve sticky IPv4 fallback state across polling restarts so hosts with unstable IPv6 to `api.telegram.org` stop re-triggering repeated Telegram timeouts after each restart. (#48282) Thanks @yassinebkr.
-- Plugins/subagents: forward per-run provider and model overrides through gateway plugin subagent dispatch so plugin-launched agent delegations honor explicit model selection again. (#48277) Thanks @jalehman.
 - Agents/compaction: write minimal boundary summaries for empty preparations while keeping split-turn prefixes on the normal path, so no-summarizable-message sessions stop retriggering the safeguard loop. (#42215) thanks @lml2468.
 - Models/chat commands: keep `/model ...@YYYYMMDD` version suffixes intact by default, but still honor matching stored numeric auth-profile overrides for the same provider. (#48896) Thanks @Alix-007.
 - Gateway/channels: serialize per-account channel startup so overlapping starts do not boot the same provider twice, preventing MS Teams `EADDRINUSE` crash loops during startup and restart. (#49583) Thanks @sudie-codes.
-- Tests/OpenAI Codex auth: align login expectations with the default `gpt-5.4` model so CI coverage stays consistent with the current OpenAI Codex default. (#44367) Thanks @jrrcdev.
 - Discord: enforce strict DM component allowlist auth (#49997) Thanks @joshavant.
 - Stabilize plugin loader and Docker extension smoke (#50058) Thanks @joshavant.
 - Telegram: stabilize pairing/session/forum routing and reply formatting tests (#50155) Thanks @joshavant.

+- LINE: harden Express webhook parsing to verified raw body (#51202) Thanks @gladiator9797 and @joshavant.
+- Exec: harden host env override handling across gateway and node (#51207) Thanks @gladiator9797 and @joshavant.
+- Voice Call: enforce spoken-output contract and fix stream TTS silence regression (#51500) Thanks @joshavant.
+- xAI/models: rename the bundled Grok 4.20 catalog entries to the GA IDs and normalize saved deprecated beta IDs at runtime so existing configs and sessions keep resolving. (#50772) thanks @Jaaneek
 - Agents/bootstrap warnings: move bootstrap truncation warnings out of the system prompt and into the per-turn prompt body so prompt-cache reuse stays stable when truncation warnings appear or disappear. (#48753) Thanks @scoootscooob and @obviyus.
 - Telegram/DM topic session keys: route named-account DM topics through the same per-account base session key across inbound messages, native commands, and session-state lookups so `/status` and thread recovery stop creating phantom `agent:main:main:thread:...` sessions. (#48204) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- macOS/node service startup: use `openclaw node start/stop --json` from the Mac app instead of the removed `openclaw service node ...` command shape, so current CLI installs expose the full node exec surface again. (#46843) Fixes #43171. Thanks @Br1an67.
-- macOS/launch at login: stop emitting `KeepAlive` for the desktop app launch agent so OpenClaw no longer relaunches immediately after a manual quit while launch at login remains enabled. (#40213) Thanks @stablegenius49.
-- ACP/gateway startup: use direct Telegram and Discord startup/status helpers instead of routing probes through the plugin runtime, and prepend the selected daemon Node bin dir to service PATH so plugin-local installs can still find `npm` and `pnpm`.
 - ACP/configured bindings: reinitialize configured ACP sessions that are stuck in `error` state instead of reusing the failed runtime.
-- Mattermost/DM send: retry transient direct-channel creation failures for DM deliveries, with configurable backoff and per-request timeout. (#42398) Thanks @JonathanJing.
 - Telegram/network: unify API and media fetches under the same sticky IPv4 and pinned-IP fallback chain, and re-validate pinned override addresses against SSRF policy. (#49148) Thanks @obviyus.
 - Agents/prompt composition: append bootstrap truncation warnings to the current-turn prompt and add regression coverage for stable system-prompt cache invariants. (#49237) Thanks @scoootscooob.
-- Gateway/auth: add regression coverage that keeps device-less trusted-proxy Control UI sessions off privileged pairing approval RPCs. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Plugins/runtime-api: pin extension runtime-api export surfaces with explicit guardrail coverage so future surface creep becomes a deliberate diff. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Synology Chat/multi-account: scope direct-message sessions by account and sender so identical webhook `user_id` values on different Synology accounts no longer share transcript or delivery state.
 - Telegram/security: add regression coverage proving pinned fallback host overrides stay bound to Telegram and delegate non-matching hostnames back to the original lookup path. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Secrets/exec refs: require explicit `--allow-exec` for `secrets apply` write plans that contain exec SecretRefs/providers, and align audit/configure/apply dry-run behavior to skip exec checks unless opted in to prevent unexpected command side effects. (#49417) Thanks @restriction and @joshavant.
 - Tools/image generation: add bundled fal image generation support so `image_generate` can target `fal/*` models with `FAL_KEY`, including single-image edit flows via FLUX image-to-image. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Gateway/hooks: preserve immutable hook ingress provenance across async isolated-agent dispatch so normalized hook session routes keep external wrapping, Gmail-specific policy, and Gmail model selection intact.
+- Messages/polls: treat zero-valued poll params on `message.send` as unset defaults while keeping non-zero poll params on the poll validation path. (#52150) Fixes #52118. Thanks @Bartok9.
 - xAI/web search: add missing Grok credential metadata so the bundled provider registration type-checks again. (#49472) thanks @scoootscooob.
-- Signal/runtime API: re-export `SignalAccountConfig` so Signal account resolution type-checks again. (#49470) Thanks @scoootscooob.
-- Google Chat/runtime API: thin the private runtime barrel onto the curated public SDK surface while keeping public Google Chat exports intact. (#49504) Thanks @scoootscooob.
+- Agents/session cache: opportunistically sweep expired embedded-runner session cache entries during later cache activity, so one-shot session files do not accumulate forever. (#52427) Thanks @karanuppal.
 - WhatsApp: stabilize inbound monitor and setup tests (#50007) Thanks @joshavant.
 - Matrix: make onboarding status runtime-safe (#49995) Thanks @joshavant.
 - Channels: stabilize lane harness and monitor tests (#50167) Thanks @joshavant.
-- WhatsApp/active-listener: pin the active listener registry to a `globalThis` singleton so split WhatsApp bundle chunks share one listener map and outbound sends stop missing the registered session. (#47433) Thanks @clawdia67.
+- Agents/compaction: add an opt-in post-compaction session JSONL truncation step that drops summarized transcript entries while preserving the retained branch tail and live session metadata. (#41021) thanks @thirumaleshp.
+- Telegram/routing: fail loud when `message send` targets an unknown non-default Telegram `accountId`, instead of silently falling back to the channel-level bot token and sending through the wrong bot. (#50853) Thanks @hclsys.
+- Web search: align onboarding, configure, and finalize with plugin-owned provider contracts, including disabled-provider recovery, config-aware credential hooks, and runtime-visible summaries. (#50935) Thanks @gumadeiras.
+- Agents/replay: sanitize malformed assistant tool-call replay blocks before provider replay so follow-up Anthropic requests do not inherit the downstream `replace` crash. (#50005) Thanks @jalehman.
+- Discord/startup logging: report client initialization while the gateway is still connecting instead of claiming Discord is logged in before readiness is reached. (#51425) Thanks @scoootscoob.
+- Agents/compaction safeguard: preserve split-turn context and preserved recent turns when capped retry fallback reuses the last successful summary. (#27727) thanks @Pandadadadazxf.
+- Agents/memory flush: keep transcript-hash dedup active across memory-flush fallback retries so a write-then-throw flush attempt cannot append duplicate `MEMORY.md` entries before the fallback cycle completes. (#34222) Thanks @lml2468.
+- Discord/ACP: forward worker abort signals into ACP turns so timed-out Discord jobs cancel the running turn instead of silently leaving the bound ACP session working in the background.
+- ACP/Codex session replay: preserve hidden assistant thinking when loading or rebinding existing ACP sessions so stored thought chunks do not replay into visible assistant text. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Gateway/commands: keep internal `chat.send` slash-command UX while requiring `operator.admin` before internal callers can persist `/exec` defaults or mutate `phone-control` node policy through `/phone arm|disarm`.
+- Plugins/Matrix: move bundled plugin `KeyedAsyncQueue` imports onto the stable `plugin-sdk/core` surface so Matrix Docker/runtime builds do not depend on the brittle keyed-async-queue subpath. Thanks @ecohash-co and @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/context engines: enforce owner-aware context-engine registration on both loader and public SDK paths so plugins cannot spoof privileged ownership, claim the core `legacy` engine id, or overwrite an existing engine id through direct SDK imports. (#47595) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/bundler TDZ: fix `RESERVED_COMMANDS` temporal dead zone error that prevented device-pair, phone-control, and talk-voice plugins from registering when the bundler placed the commands module after call sites in the same output chunk. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Plugins/imports: fix stale googlechat runtime-api import paths and signal SDK circular re-exports broken by recent plugin-sdk refactors. Thanks @BunsDev.
+- Plugins/install precedence: keep bundled plugins ahead of auto-discovered globals by default, but let an explicitly installed plugin record win its own duplicate-id tie so installed channel plugins load from `~/.openclaw/extensions` after `openclaw plugins install`. (#46722) Thanks @Takhoffman.
+- Plugins/scoped ids: preserve scoped plugin ids during install and config keying, and keep bundled plugins ahead of discovered duplicate ids by default so `@scope/name` plugins no longer collide with unscoped installs. (#47413) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Docs/Mintlify: fix MDX marker syntax on Perplexity, Model Providers, Moonshot, and exec approvals pages so local docs preview no longer breaks rendering or leaves stale pages unpublished. (#46695) Thanks @velvet-shark.
+- Plugins/runtime barrels: route bundled extension runtime imports through public `openclaw/plugin-sdk/*` subpaths and block relative cross-package escapes so packaged extensions stop depending on monorepo-only relative paths. (#51939) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Docs/security audit: spell out that `gateway.controlUi.allowedOrigins: ["*"]` is an explicit allow-all browser-origin policy and should be avoided outside tightly controlled local testing.
+- Plugins/subagents: preserve gateway-owned plugin subagent access across runtime, tool, and embedded-runner load paths so gateway plugin tools and context engines can still spawn and manage subagents after the loader cache split. (#46648) Thanks @jalehman.

+- Tests/OpenAI Codex auth: align login expectations with the default `gpt-5.4` model so CI coverage stays consistent with the current OpenAI Codex default. (#44367) Thanks @jrrcdev.
+- Plugins/Matrix TTS: send auto-TTS replies as native Matrix voice bubbles instead of generic audio attachments. (#37080) thanks @Matthew19990919.
+- Plugins/discovery: distinguish missing package entry files from package-path escape violations so startup skips absent plugin entry paths without raising false security diagnostics. (#52491) Thanks @hclsys.
+- Plugins/Matrix: accept shared send-tool media aliases (`mediaUrl`, `filePath`, `path`) and preserve `asVoice` / `audioAsVoice` through Matrix action dispatch so media-only sends and voice-message intents reach the plugin send layer correctly. Thanks @psacc and @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/runtime-api: pin extension runtime-api export surfaces with explicit guardrail coverage so future surface creep becomes a deliberate diff. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Plugins/WhatsApp: share split-load singleton state for plugin command registration and active WhatsApp listeners so duplicate module graphs no longer lose native plugin commands or outbound listener state. (#50418) Thanks @huntharo.
+- Plugins/update: let `openclaw plugins update <npm-spec>` target tracked npm installs by dist-tag or exact version, and preserve the recorded npm spec for later id-based updates. (#49998) Thanks @huntharo.
+- Tests/CLI: reduce command-secret gateway test import pressure while keeping the real protocol payload validator in place, so the isolated lane no longer carries the heavier runtime-web and message-channel graphs. (#50663) Thanks @huntharo.
+- Gateway/plugins: share plugin interactive callback routing and plugin bind approval state across duplicate module graphs so Telegram Codex picker buttons and plugin bind approvals no longer fall through to normal inbound message routing. (#50722) Thanks @huntharo.
+- Plugins/context engines: retry strict legacy `assemble()` calls without the new `prompt` field when older engines reject it, preserving prompt-aware retrieval compatibility for pre-prompt plugins. (#50848) thanks @danhdoan.
+- Plugins/runtime state: share plugin-facing infra singleton state across duplicate module graphs and keep session-binding adapter ownership stable until the active owner unregisters. (#50725) thanks @huntharo.
+- Discord/pickers: keep `/codex_resume --browse-projects` picker callbacks alive in Discord by sharing component callback state across duplicate module graphs, preserving callback fallbacks, and acknowledging matched plugin interactions before dispatch. (#51260) Thanks @huntharo.
+- Memory/core tools: register `memory_search` and `memory_get` independently so one unavailable memory tool no longer suppresses the other in new sessions. (#50198) Thanks @artwalker.
+- Telegram/Mattermost message tool: keep plugin button schemas optional in isolated and cron sessions so plain sends do not fail validation when no current channel is active. (#52589) Thanks @tylerliu612.
+- Release/npm publish: fail the npm release check when `dist/control-ui/index.html` is missing from the packed tarball, so broken Control UI asset releases are blocked before publish. Fixes #52808. (#52852) Thanks @kevinheinrichs.
+- Slack/embedded delivery: suppress transcript-only `delivery-mirror` assistant messages before embedded re-delivery and raise the default Slack chunk fallback so messages just over 4000 characters stay in a single post. (#45489) Thanks @theo674.
+- Slack/embedded delivery: suppress transcript-only `delivery-mirror` assistant messages before embedded re-delivery and raise the default Slack chunk fallback so messages just over 4000 characters stay in a single post. (#45489) Thanks @theo674.

+### Fixes
 
-- Skills/image generation: remove the bundled `nano-banana-pro` skill wrapper. Use `agents.defaults.imageGenerationModel.primary: "google/gemini-3-pro-image-preview"` for the native Nano Banana-style path instead.
-
-- Browser/Chrome MCP: remove the legacy Chrome extension relay path, bundled extension assets, `driver: "extension"`, and `browser.relayBindHost`. Run `openclaw doctor --fix` to migrate host-local browser config to `existing-session` / `user`; Docker, headless, sandbox, and remote browser flows still use raw CDP. (#47893) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Plugins/runtime: remove the public `openclaw/extension-api` surface with no compatibility shim. Bundled plugins must use injected runtime for host-side operations (for example `api.runtime.agent.runEmbeddedPiAgent`) and any remaining direct imports must come from narrow `openclaw/plugin-sdk/*` subpaths instead of the monolithic SDK root.
-- Tools/image generation: standardize the stock image create/edit path on the core `image_generate` tool. The old `nano-banana-pro` docs/examples are gone; if you previously copied that sample-skill config, switch to `agents.defaults.imageGenerationModel` for built-in image generation or install a separate third-party skill explicitly.
-- Skills/image generation: remove the bundled `nano-banana-pro` skill wrapper. Use `agents.defaults.imageGenerationModel.primary: "google/gemini-3-pro-image-preview"` for the native Nano Banana-style path instead.
-- Plugins/message discovery: require `ChannelMessageActionAdapter.describeMessageTool(...)` for shared `message` tool discovery. The legacy `listActions`, `getCapabilities`, and `getToolSchema` adapter methods are removed. Plugin authors should migrate message discovery to `describeMessageTool(...)` and keep channel-specific action runtime code inside the owning plugin package. Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Exec/env sandbox: block build-tool JVM injection (`MAVEN_OPTS`, `SBT_OPTS`, `GRADLE_OPTS`, `ANT_OPTS`), glibc tunable exploitation (`GLIBC_TUNABLES`), and .NET dependency resolution hijack (`DOTNET_ADDITIONAL_DEPS`) from the host exec environment, and restrict Gradle init script redirect (`GRADLE_USER_HOME`) as an override-only block so user-configured Gradle homes still propagate. (#49702)
-- Plugins/Matrix: add a new Matrix plugin backed by the official `matrix-js-sdk`. If you are upgrading from the previous public Matrix plugin, follow the migration guide: https://docs.openclaw.ai/install/migrating-matrix Thanks @gumadeiras.
+- Agents/edit tool: accept common path/text alias spellings, show current file contents on exact-match failures, and avoid false edit failures after successful writes. (#52516) thanks @mbelinky.

+<h3>Breaking</h3>
+<h3>Changes</h3>
+<h3>Fixes</h3>
+<ul>
+<li>Browser/Chrome MCP: wait for existing-session browser tabs to become usable after attach instead of treating the initial Chrome MCP handshake as ready, which reduces user-profile timeouts and repeated consent churn on macOS Chrome attach flows. Fixes #52930. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Browser/CDP: reuse an already-running loopback browser after a short initial reachability miss instead of immediately falling back to relaunch detection, which fixes second-run browser start/open regressions on slower headless Linux setups. Fixes #53004. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>ClawHub/macOS auth: honor macOS auth config and XDG auth paths for saved ClawHub credentials, so <code>openclaw skills ...</code> and gateway skill browsing keep using the signed-in auth state instead of silently falling back to unauthenticated mode. Fixes #53034.</li>
+<li>ClawHub/macOS: read the local ClawHub login from the macOS Application Support path and still honor XDG config on macOS, so skill browsing uses the logged-in token on both default and XDG-style setups. Fixes #52949. Thanks @scoootscooob.</li>
+<li>ClawHub/skills: resolve the local ClawHub auth token for gateway skill browsing and switch browse-all requests to search so ClawControl stops falling into unauthenticated 429s and empty authenticated skill lists. Fixes #52949. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Plugins/message tool: make Discord <code>components</code> and Slack <code>blocks</code> optional again, and route Feishu <code>message(..., media=...)</code> sends through the outbound media path, so pin/unpin/react flows stop failing schema validation and Feishu file/image attachments actually send. Fixes #52970 and #52962. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Gateway/model pricing: stop <code>openrouter/auto</code> pricing refresh from recursing indefinitely during bootstrap, so OpenRouter auto routes can populate cached pricing and <code>usage.cost</code> again. Fixes #53035. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Mistral/models: lower bundled Mistral max-token defaults to safe output budgets and teach <code>openclaw doctor --fix</code> to repair old persisted Mistral provider configs that still carry context-sized output limits, avoiding deterministic Mistral 422 rejects on fresh and existing setups. Fixes #52599. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Agents/web_search: use the active runtime <code>web_search</code> provider instead of stale/default selection, so agent turns keep hitting the provider you actually configured. Fixes #53020. Thanks @jzakirov.</li>
+<li>Models/OpenAI Codex OAuth: bootstrap the env-configured HTTP/HTTPS proxy dispatcher on the stored-credential refresh path before token renewal runs, so expired Codex OAuth profiles can refresh successfully in proxy-required environments instead of locking users out after the first token expiry.</li>
+<li>Plugins/memory-lancedb: bootstrap LanceDB into plugin runtime state on first use when the bundled npm install does not already have it, so <code>plugins.slots.memory="memory-lancedb"</code> works again after global npm installs without moving LanceDB into OpenClaw core dependencies. Fixes #26100.</li>
+<li>Config/plugins: treat stale unknown <code>plugins.allow</code> ids as warnings instead of fatal config errors, so recovery commands like <code>plugins install</code>, <code>doctor --fix</code>, and <code>status</code> still run when a plugin is missing locally. Fixes #52992. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Doctor/WhatsApp: stop auto-enable from appending built-in channel ids like <code>whatsapp</code> to <code>plugins.allow</code>, so <code>openclaw doctor --fix</code> no longer writes schema-invalid plugin allowlist entries when repairing built-in channels. Fixes #52931. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Telegram/auto-reply: preserve same-chat inbound debounce order without stranding stale busy-session followups, and keep same-key overflow turns ordered when tracked debounce keys are saturated. (#52998) Thanks @osolmaz.</li>
+<li>Discord/commands: return an explicit unauthorized reply for privileged native slash commands instead of falling through to Discord's misleading generic completion when auth gates reject the sender. Fixes #53041. Thanks @scoootscooob.</li>
+<li>Channels/catalog: let external channel catalogs override shipped fallback metadata and honor overridden npm specs during channel setup, so custom channel catalogs no longer fall back to bundled packages when a channel id matches. (#52988)</li>
+<li>Voice-call/Plivo: stabilize Plivo v2 replay keys so webhook retries and replay protection stop colliding on valid follow-up deliveries.</li>
+<li>Agents/skills: prefer the active resolved runtime snapshot for embedded skill config and env injection, so <code>skills.entries.<skill>.apiKey</code> SecretRefs resolve correctly during embedded startup instead of failing on raw source config. Fixes #53098. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Agents/subagents: recheck timed-out worker waits against the latest runtime snapshot before sending completion events, so fast-finishing workers stop being reported as timed out when they actually succeeded. Fixes #53106. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Agents/Anthropic: preserve latest assistant thinking and redacted-thinking block ordering during transcript image sanitization so follow-up turns do not trip Anthropic's unmodified-thinking validation. (#52961) Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Gateway/probe: stop successful gateway handshakes from timing out as unreachable while post-connect detail RPCs are still loading, so slow devices report a reachable RPC failure instead of a false negative dead gateway. Fixes #52927. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Gateway/supervision: stop lock conflicts from crash-looping under launchd and systemd by keeping the duplicate process in a retry wait instead of exiting as a failure while another healthy gateway still owns the lock. Fixes #52922. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Gateway/auth: require auth for canvas routes and admin scope for agent session reset, so anonymous canvas access and non-admin reset requests fail closed.</li>
+<li>Release/install: keep previously released bundled plugins and Control UI assets in published openclaw npm installs, and fail release checks when those shipped artifacts are missing. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>

-<h3>Changes</h3>
-<ul>
-<li>CLI/backup: add <code>openclaw backup create</code> and <code>openclaw backup verify</code> for local state archives, including <code>--only-config</code>, <code>--no-include-workspace</code>, manifest/payload validation, and backup guidance in destructive flows. (#40163) thanks @shichangs.</li>
-<li>macOS/onboarding: add a remote gateway token field for remote mode, preserve existing non-plaintext <code>gateway.remote.token</code> config values until explicitly replaced, and warn when the loaded token shape cannot be used directly from the macOS app. (#40187, supersedes #34614) Thanks @cgdusek.</li>
-<li>Talk mode: add top-level <code>talk.silenceTimeoutMs</code> config so Talk waits a configurable amount of silence before auto-sending the current transcript, while keeping each platform's existing default pause window when unset. (#39607) Thanks @danodoesdesign. Fixes #17147.</li>
-<li>TUI: infer the active agent from the current workspace when launched inside a configured agent workspace, while preserving explicit <code>agent:</code> session targets. (#39591) thanks @arceus77-7.</li>
-<li>Tools/Brave web search: add opt-in <code>tools.web.search.brave.mode: "llm-context"</code> so <code>web_search</code> can call Brave's LLM Context endpoint and return extracted grounding snippets with source metadata, plus config/docs/test coverage. (#33383) Thanks @thirumaleshp.</li>
-<li>CLI/install: include the short git commit hash in <code>openclaw --version</code> output when metadata is available, and keep installer version checks compatible with the decorated format. (#39712) thanks @sourman.</li>
-<li>CLI/backup: improve archive naming for date sorting, add config-only backup mode, and harden backup planning, publication, and verification edge cases. (#40163) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
-<li>ACP/Provenance: add optional ACP ingress provenance metadata and visible receipt injection (<code>openclaw acp --provenance off|meta|meta+receipt</code>) so OpenClaw agents can retain and report ACP-origin context with session trace IDs. (#40473) thanks @mbelinky.</li>
-<li>Tools/web search: alphabetize provider ordering across runtime selection, onboarding/configure pickers, and config metadata, so provider lists stay neutral and multi-key auto-detect now prefers Grok before Kimi. (#40259) thanks @kesku.</li>
-<li>Docs/Web search: restore $5/month free-credit details, replace defunct "Data for Search"/"Data for AI" plan names with current "Search" plan, and note legacy subscription validity in Brave setup docs. Follows up on #26860. (#40111) Thanks @remusao.</li>
-<li>Extensions/ACPX tests: move the shared runtime fixture helper from <code>src/runtime-internals/</code> to <code>src/test-utils/</code> so the test-only helper no longer looks like shipped runtime code.</li>
-</ul>
-<h3>Fixes</h3>
-<ul>
-<li>macOS app/chat UI: route browser proxy through the local node browser service, preserve plain-text paste semantics, strip completed assistant trace/debug wrapper noise from transcripts, refresh permission state after returning from System Settings, and tolerate malformed cron rows in the macOS tab. (#39516) Thanks @Imhermes1.</li>
-<li>Android/Play distribution: remove self-update, background location, <code>screen.record</code>, and background mic capture from the Android app, narrow the foreground service to <code>dataSync</code> only, and clean up the legacy <code>location.enabledMode=always</code> preference migration. (#39660) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
-<li>Telegram/DM routing: dedupe inbound Telegram DMs per agent instead of per session key so the same DM cannot trigger duplicate replies when both <code>agent:main:main</code> and <code>agent:main:telegram:direct:<id></code> resolve for one agent. Fixes #40005. Supersedes #40116. (#40519) thanks @obviyus.</li>
-<li>Cron/Telegram announce delivery: route text-only announce jobs through the real outbound adapters after finalizing descendant output so plain Telegram targets no longer report <code>delivered: true</code> when no message actually reached Telegram. (#40575) thanks @obviyus.</li>
-<li>Matrix/DM routing: add safer fallback detection for broken <code>m.direct</code> homeservers, honor explicit room bindings over DM classification, and preserve room-bound agent selection for Matrix DM rooms. (#19736) Thanks @derbronko.</li>
-<li>Feishu/plugin onboarding: clear the short-lived plugin discovery cache before reloading the registry after installing a channel plugin, so onboarding no longer re-prompts to download Feishu immediately after a successful install. Fixes #39642. (#39752) Thanks @GazeKingNuWu.</li>
-<li>Plugins/channel onboarding: prefer bundled channel plugins over duplicate npm-installed copies during onboarding and release-channel sync, preventing bundled plugins from being shadowed by npm installs with the same plugin ID. (#40092)</li>
-<li>Config/runtime snapshots: keep secrets-runtime-resolved config and auth-profile snapshots intact after config writes so follow-up reads still see file-backed secret values while picking up the persisted config update. (#37313) thanks @bbblending.</li>
-<li>Gateway/Control UI: resolve bundled dashboard assets through symlinked global wrappers and auto-detected package roots, while keeping configured and custom roots on the strict hardlink boundary. (#40385) Thanks @LarytheLord.</li>
-<li>Browser/extension relay: add <code>browser.relayBindHost</code> so the Chrome relay can bind to an explicit non-loopback address for WSL2 and other cross-namespace setups, while preserving loopback-only defaults. (#39364) Thanks @mvanhorn.</li>
-<li>Browser/CDP: normalize loopback direct WebSocket CDP URLs back to HTTP(S) for <code>/json/*</code> tab operations so local <code>ws://</code> / <code>wss://</code> profiles can still list, focus, open, and close tabs after the new direct-WS support lands. (#31085) Thanks @shrey150.</li>
-<li>Browser/CDP: rewrite wildcard <code>ws://0.0.0.0</code> and <code>ws://[::]</code> debugger URLs from remote <code>/json/version</code> responses back to the external CDP host/port, fixing Browserless-style container endpoints. (#17760) Thanks @joeharouni.</li>
-<li>Browser/extension relay: wait briefly for a previously attached Chrome tab to reappear after transient relay drops before failing with <code>tab not found</code>, reducing noisy reconnect flakes. (#32461) Thanks @AaronWander.</li>
-<li>macOS/Tailscale gateway discovery: keep Tailscale Serve probing alive when other remote gateways are already discovered, prefer direct transport for resolved <code>.ts.net</code> and Tailscale Serve gateways, and set <code>TERM=dumb</code> for GUI-launched Tailscale CLI discovery. (#40167) thanks @ngutman.</li>
-<li>TUI/theme: detect light terminal backgrounds via <code>COLORFGBG</code> and pick a WCAG AA-compliant light palette, with <code>OPENCLAW_THEME=light|dark</code> override for terminals without auto-detection. (#38636) Thanks @ademczuk and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Agents/openai-codex: normalize <code>gpt-5.4</code> fallback transport back to <code>openai-codex-responses</code> on <code>chatgpt.com/backend-api</code> when config drifts to the generic OpenAI responses endpoint. (#38736) Thanks @0xsline.</li>
-<li>Models/openai-codex GPT-5.4 forward-compat: use the GPT-5.4 1,050,000-token context window and 128,000 max tokens for <code>openai-codex/gpt-5.4</code> instead of inheriting stale legacy Codex limits in resolver fallbacks and model listing. (#37876) thanks @yuweuii.</li>
-<li>Tools/web search: restore Perplexity OpenRouter/Sonar compatibility for legacy <code>OPENROUTER_API_KEY</code>, <code>sk-or-...</code>, and explicit <code>perplexity.baseUrl</code> / <code>model</code> setups while keeping direct Perplexity keys on the native Search API path. (#39937) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
-<li>Agents/failover: detect Amazon Bedrock <code>Too many tokens per day</code> quota errors as rate limits across fallback, cron retry, and memory embeddings while keeping context-window <code>too many tokens per request</code> errors out of the rate-limit lane. (#39377) Thanks @gambletan.</li>
-<li>Mattermost replies: keep <code>root_id</code> pinned to the existing thread root when an agent replies inside a thread, while still using reply-target threading for top-level posts. (#27744) thanks @hnykda.</li>
-<li>Telegram/DM partial streaming: keep DM preview lanes on real message edits instead of native draft materialization so final replies no longer flash a second duplicate copy before collapsing back to one.</li>
-<li>macOS overlays: fix VoiceWake, Talk, and Notify overlay exclusivity crashes by removing shared <code>inout</code> visibility mutation from <code>OverlayPanelFactory.present</code>, and add a repeated Talk overlay smoke test. (#39275, #39321) Thanks @fellanH.</li>
-<li>macOS Talk Mode: set the speech recognition request <code>taskHint</code> to <code>.dictation</code> for mic capture, and add regression coverage for the request defaults. (#38445) Thanks @dmiv.</li>
-<li>macOS release packaging: default <code>scripts/package-mac-app.sh</code> to universal binaries for <code>BUILD_CONFIG=release</code>, and clarify that <code>scripts/package-mac-dist.sh</code> already produces the release zip + DMG. (#33891) Thanks @cgdusek.</li>
-<li>Hooks/session-memory: keep <code>/new</code> and <code>/reset</code> memory artifacts in the bound agent workspace and align saved reset session keys with that workspace when stale main-agent keys leak into the hook path. (#39875) thanks @rbutera.</li>
-<li>Sessions/model switch: clear stale cached <code>contextTokens</code> when a session changes models so status and runtime paths recompute against the active model window. (#38044) thanks @yuweuii.</li>
-<li>ACP/session history: persist transcripts for successful ACP child runs, preserve exact transcript text, record ACP spawned-session lineage, and keep spawn-time transcript-path persistence best-effort so history storage failures do not block execution. (#40137) thanks @mbelinky.</li>
-<li>Docs/browser: add a layered WSL2 + Windows remote Chrome CDP troubleshooting guide, including Control UI origin pitfalls and extension-relay bind-address guidance. (#39407) Thanks @Owlock.</li>
-<li>Context engine registry/bundled builds: share the registry state through a <code>globalThis</code> singleton so duplicated bundled module copies can resolve engines registered by each other at runtime, with regression coverage for duplicate-module imports. (#40115) thanks @jalehman.</li>
-<li>Podman/setup: fix <code>cannot chdir: Permission denied</code> in <code>run_as_user</code> when <code>setup-podman.sh</code> is invoked from a directory the target user cannot access, by wrapping user-switch calls in a subshell that cd's to <code>/tmp</code> with <code>/</code> fallback. (#39435) Thanks @langdon and @jlcbk.</li>
-<li>Podman/SELinux: auto-detect SELinux enforcing/permissive mode and add <code>:Z</code> relabel to bind mounts in <code>run-openclaw-podman.sh</code> and the Quadlet template, fixing <code>EACCES</code> on Fedora/RHEL hosts. Supports <code>OPENCLAW_BIND_MOUNT_OPTIONS</code> override. (#39449) Thanks @langdon and @githubbzxs.</li>
-<li>Agents/context-engine plugins: bootstrap runtime plugins once at embedded-run, compaction, and subagent boundaries so plugin-provided context engines and hooks load from the active workspace before runtime resolution. (#40232)</li>
-<li>Docs/Changelog: correct the contributor credit for the bundled Control UI global-install fix to @LarytheLord. (#40420) Thanks @velvet-shark.</li>
-<li>Telegram/media downloads: time out only stalled body reads so polling recovers from hung file downloads without aborting slow downloads that are still streaming data. (#40098) thanks @tysoncung.</li>
-<li>Docker/runtime image: prune dev dependencies, strip build-only dist metadata for smaller Docker images. (#40307) Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Gateway/restart timeout recovery: exit non-zero when restart-triggered shutdown drains time out so launchd/systemd restart the gateway instead of treating the failed restart as a clean stop. Landed from contributor PR #40380 by @dsantoreis. Thanks @dsantoreis.</li>
-<li>Gateway/config restart guard: validate config before service start/restart and keep post-SIGUSR1 startup failures from crashing the gateway process, reducing invalid-config restart loops and macOS permission loss. Landed from contributor PR #38699 by @lml2468. Thanks @lml2468.</li>
-<li>Gateway/launchd respawn detection: treat <code>XPC_SERVICE_NAME</code> as a launchd supervision hint so macOS restarts exit cleanly under launchd instead of attempting detached self-respawn. Landed from contributor PR #20555 by @dimat. Thanks @dimat.</li>
-<li>Telegram/poll restart cleanup: abort the in-flight Telegram API fetch when shutdown or forced polling restarts stop a runner, preventing stale <code>getUpdates</code> long polls from colliding with the replacement runner. Landed from contributor PR #23950 by @Gkinthecodeland. Thanks @Gkinthecodeland.</li>
-<li>Cron/restart catch-up staggering: limit immediate missed-job replay on startup and reschedule the deferred remainder from the post-catchup clock so restart bursts do not starve the gateway or silently skip overdue recurring jobs. Landed from contributor PR #18925 by @rexlunae. Thanks @rexlunae.</li>
-<li>Cron/owner-only tools: pass trusted isolated cron runs into the embedded agent with owner context so <code>cron</code>/<code>gateway</code> tooling remains available after the owner-auth hardening narrowed direct-message ownership inference.</li>
-<li>Browser/SSRF: block private-network intermediate redirect hops in strict browser navigation flows and fail closed when remote tab-open paths cannot inspect redirect chains. Thanks @zpbrent.</li>
-<li>MS Teams/authz: keep <code>groupPolicy: "allowlist"</code> enforcing sender allowlists even when a team/channel route allowlist is configured, so route matches no longer widen group access to every sender in that route. Thanks @zpbrent.</li>
-<li>Security/system.run: bind approved <code>bun</code> and <code>deno run</code> script operands to on-disk file snapshots so post-approval script rewrites are denied before execution.</li>
-<li>Skills/download installs: pin the validated per-skill tools root before writing downloaded archives, so rebinding the lexical tools path cannot redirect download writes outside the intended tools directory. Thanks @tdjackey.</li>

 - APK / sideload build can keep SMS and Call Log features.
 - Google Play build should exclude SMS send/search and Call Log search unless the product is intentionally positioned and approved as a default-handler exception case.
+- The repo now ships this split as Android product flavors:
+  - `play`: removes `READ_SMS`, `SEND_SMS`, and `READ_CALL_LOG`, and hides SMS / Call Log surfaces in onboarding, settings, and advertised node capabilities.
+  - `thirdParty`: keeps the full permission set and the existing SMS / Call Log functionality.

- *   3. Call [sendText] with incremental text chunks as they arrive
- *   4. Call [finish] when the full response is ready (sends EOS to ElevenLabs)
- *   5. Call [stop] to cancel/cleanup at any time
- *
- * Audio playback begins as soon as the first audio chunk arrives from ElevenLabs,
- * typically within ~100ms of the first text chunk for eleven_flash_v2_5.
- *
- * Note: eleven_v3 does NOT support WebSocket streaming. Use eleven_flash_v2_5
