-description: Run Blacksmith Testbox for CI-parity checks, secrets, hosted services, migrations, or builds local cannot reproduce.
----
-
-# Blacksmith Testbox
-
-## Scope
-
-Use Testbox when you need remote CI parity, injected secrets, hosted services,
-or an OS/runtime image that your local machine cannot provide cheaply.
-
-Do not default to Testbox for every local test/build loop. If the repo has
-documented local commands for normal iteration, use those first so you keep
-warm caches, local build state, and fast feedback.
-
-Testbox is the expensive path. Reach for it deliberately.
-
-OpenClaw maintainers can opt into Testbox-first validation by setting
-`OPENCLAW_TESTBOX=1` in their environment or standing agent rules. This mode is
-maintainers-only and requires Blacksmith access.
-
-When `OPENCLAW_TESTBOX=1` is set in OpenClaw:
-
-- Pre-warm a Testbox early for longer, wider, or uncertain work.
-- Prefer Testbox for `pnpm` gates, e2e, package-like proof, and broad suites.
-- Reuse the same Testbox ID for every run command in the same task/session.
-- Use local commands only when the task explicitly sets
-  `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK_MODE=throttled|full`, or when the user asks for local
-  proof.
-
-## Install the CLI
-
-If `blacksmith` is not installed, install it:
-
-    curl -fsSL https://get.blacksmith.sh | sh
-
-For the canary channel (bleeding-edge):
-
-    BLACKSMITH_CHANNEL=canary sh -c 'curl -fsSL https://get.blacksmith.sh | sh'
-
-Then authenticate:
-
-    blacksmith auth login
-
-## Agent-triggered browser auth (non-interactive)
-
-When an agent needs to ensure the user is authenticated before running testbox
-commands (e.g. warmup, run), use browser-based auth with non-interactive mode.
-This opens the browser for the user to sign in; the agent does not interact with
-the browser. The org selector in the dashboard is skipped, so the user only sees
-the sign-in flow.
-
-**Required command** (`--organization` is required with `--non-interactive`):
-
-    blacksmith auth login --non-interactive --organization <org-slug>
-
-The org slug can come from `BLACKSMITH_ORG` env var or the `--org` global flag.
-If neither is set, the agent should use the project's known org (e.g. from repo
-config or user context). Example:
-
-    blacksmith auth login --non-interactive --organization acme-corp
-    blacksmith --org acme-corp auth login --non-interactive --organization acme-corp
-
-**Flow**: The CLI starts a local callback server, opens the browser to the
-dashboard auth page, and blocks for up to 2 minutes. The user completes sign-in
-and authorization in the browser. The dashboard redirects to localhost with the
-token; the CLI saves credentials and exits. The agent then proceeds.
-
-**Do not use** `--api-token` for this flow — that is for headless/token-based
-auth. This skill focuses on browser-based auth when the user prefers signing in
-via the web UI.
-
-Optional flags:
-
-- `--dashboard-url <url>` — Override dashboard URL (e.g. for staging)
-
-## Decide first: local or Testbox
-
-Before warming anything up, check the repo's own instructions.
-
-Prefer local commands when:
-
-- the repo documents a supported local test/build workflow
-- you are iterating on unit tests, lint, typecheck, formatting, or other
-  local-only validation
-- the value comes from warm local caches and fast repeat runs
-- the command does not need remote secrets, hosted services, or CI-only images
-
-Prefer Testbox when:
-
-- the repo explicitly requires CI-parity or remote validation
-- the command needs secrets, service containers, or provisioned infra
-- you are reproducing CI-only failures
-- you need the exact workflow image/job environment from GitHub Actions
-
-For OpenClaw specifically, normal local iteration stays local unless maintainer
-Testbox mode is enabled with `OPENCLAW_TESTBOX=1`:
-
-- `pnpm check:changed`
-- `pnpm test:changed`
-- `pnpm test <path-or-filter>`
-- `pnpm test:serial`
-- `pnpm build`
-
-If `OPENCLAW_TESTBOX=1` is enabled, run those same repo commands inside the
-warm Testbox. If the user wants laptop-friendly local proof for one command, use
-the explicit escape hatch `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK_MODE=throttled`.
-
-For installable-package product proof, prefer the GitHub `Package Acceptance`
-workflow over an ad hoc Testbox command. It resolves one package candidate
-(`source=npm`, `source=ref`, `source=url`, or `source=artifact`), uploads it as
-`package-under-test`, and runs the reusable Docker E2E lanes against that exact
-tarball on GitHub/Blacksmith runners. Use `workflow_ref` for the trusted
-workflow/harness code and `package_ref` for the source ref to pack when testing
-an older trusted branch, tag, or SHA.
-
-## Setup: Warmup before coding
-
-If you decided Testbox is warranted, warm one up early. This returns an ID
-instantly and boots the CI environment in the background while you work:
-
-    blacksmith testbox warmup ci-check-testbox.yml
-    # → tbx_01jkz5b3t9...
-
-Save this ID in the current session. You need it for every `run` command.
-Treat `blacksmith testbox list` as diagnostics, not a reusable work queue.
-Listed boxes can be visible at the org/repo level while still being unusable or
-stale for the current local agent lane.
-
-For OpenClaw maintainer Testbox mode, pre-warm at the start of longer or wider
-tasks:
-
-    blacksmith testbox warmup ci-check-testbox.yml --ref main --idle-timeout 90
-    pnpm testbox:claim --id <ID>
-
-Use the build-artifact warmup when e2e/package/build proof benefits from seeded
-`dist/`, `dist-runtime/`, and build-all caches:
-
-    blacksmith testbox warmup ci-build-artifacts-testbox.yml --ref main --idle-timeout 90
-    pnpm testbox:claim --id <ID>
-
-Warmup dispatches a GitHub Actions workflow that provisions a VM with the
-full CI environment: dependencies installed, services started, secrets
-injected, and a clean checkout of the repo at the default branch.
-
-In OpenClaw, raw commit SHAs are not reliable dispatch refs for `warmup --ref`;
-use a branch or tag. The build-artifact workflow resolves `openclaw@beta` and
-`openclaw@latest` to SHA cache keys internally.
-
-Options:
-
-    --ref <branch|tag>     Git ref to dispatch against (default: repo's default branch)
-    --job <name>           Specific job within the workflow (if it has multiple)
-    --idle-timeout <min>   Idle timeout in minutes (default: 30)
-
-## CRITICAL: Always run from the repo root
-
-ALWAYS invoke `blacksmith testbox` commands from the **root of the git
-repository**. The CLI syncs the current working directory to the testbox
-using rsync with `--delete`. If you run from a subdirectory (e.g.
-`cd backend && blacksmith testbox run ...`), rsync will mirror only that
-subdirectory and **delete everything else** on the testbox — wiping other
-directories like `dashboard/`, `cli/`, etc.
-
-    # CORRECT — run from repo root, use paths in the command
-    blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "cd backend && php artisan test"
-    blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "cd dashboard && npm test"
-
-    # WRONG — do NOT cd into a subdirectory before invoking the CLI
-    cd backend && blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "php artisan test"
-
-If your shell is in a subdirectory, `cd` back to the repo root first:
-
-    cd "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)"
-    blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "cd backend && php artisan test"
-
-## Running commands
-
-    blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "<command>"
-
-The `run` command automatically waits for the testbox to become ready if
-it is still booting, so you can call `run` immediately after warmup without
-needing to check status first.
-
-In OpenClaw, prefer the guarded runner wrapper so stale/reused ids fail before
-the Blacksmith CLI spends time syncing or emits a confusing missing-key error:
-
-    pnpm testbox:run --id <ID> -- "OPENCLAW_TESTBOX=1 pnpm check:changed"
-
-The wrapper refuses to run when the local per-Testbox key is missing or when the
-id was not claimed by this OpenClaw checkout with `pnpm testbox:claim --id
-<ID>`. Treat that as the expected remediation, not as a GitHub account or
-normal SSH-key problem. A local key alone is not enough; a ready box may still
-carry stale rsync state from another lane.
-
-If the agent crashes, the remote box relies on Blacksmith's idle timeout. The
-local OpenClaw claim marker is not deleted automatically, so the wrapper treats
-claims older than 12 hours as stale. Override only for intentional long-running
-work with `OPENCLAW_TESTBOX_CLAIM_TTL_MINUTES=<minutes>`.
-
-Before spending a broad gate on a manually assembled command, you can also run:
-
-    pnpm testbox:sanity -- --id <ID>
-
-## Downloading files from a testbox
-
-Use the `download` command to retrieve files or directories from a running
-testbox to your local machine. This is useful for fetching build artifacts,
-test results, coverage reports, or any output generated on the testbox.
-
-    blacksmith testbox download --id <ID> <remote-path> [local-path]
-
-The remote path is relative to the testbox working directory (same as `run`).
-If no local path is specified, the file is saved to the current directory
-using the same base name.
-
-To download a directory, append a trailing `/` to the remote path — this
-triggers recursive mode:
-
-    # Download a single file
-    blacksmith testbox download --id <ID> coverage/report.html
-
-    # Download a file to a specific local path
-    blacksmith testbox download --id <ID> build/output.tar.gz ./output.tar.gz
-
-    # Download an entire directory
-    blacksmith testbox download --id <ID> test-results/ ./results/
-
-Options:
-
-    --ssh-private-key <path>   Path to SSH private key (if warmup used --ssh-public-key)
-
-## How file sync works
-
-Understanding this model is critical for using Testbox correctly.
-
-When you call `run`, the CLI performs a **delta sync** of your local changes
-to the remote testbox before executing your command:
-
-1. The testbox VM starts from a clean `actions/checkout` at the warmup ref.
-   The workflow's setup steps (e.g. `npm install`, `pip install`, `composer install`)
-   run during warmup and populate dependency directories on the remote VM.
-
-2. On each `run`, the CLI uses **git** to detect which files changed locally
-   since the last sync. It syncs ONLY tracked files and untracked non-ignored
-   files (i.e. files that `git ls-files` reports).
-
-3. **`.gitignore`'d directories are never synced.** This means directories
-   like `node_modules/`, `vendor/`, `.venv/`, `build/`, `dist/`, etc. are
-   NOT transferred from your local machine. The testbox uses its own copies
-   of those directories, populated during the warmup workflow steps.
-
-4. If nothing has changed since the last sync (same git commit and working
-   tree state), the sync is skipped entirely for speed.
-
-### Why this matters
-
-- **Changing dependencies**: If you modify `package.json`, `requirements.txt`,
-  `composer.json`, `go.mod`, or similar dependency manifests, the lock/manifest
-  file will be synced but the actual dependency directory will NOT. You must
-  re-run the install command on the testbox:
-
-      blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "npm install && npm test"
-      blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "pip install -r requirements.txt && pytest"
-      blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "composer install && phpunit"
-
-- **Generated/build artifacts**: If your tests depend on a build step (e.g.
-  `npm run build`, `make`), and you changed source files that affect the build
-  output, re-run the build on the testbox before testing.
-
-- **New untracked files**: New files you create locally ARE synced (as long as
-  they are not gitignored). You do not need to `git add` them first.
-
-- **Deleted files**: Files you delete locally are also deleted on the remote
-  testbox. The sync model keeps the remote in lockstep with your local managed
-  file set.
-
-## CRITICAL: Do not ban local tests
-
-Do not assume local validation is forbidden. Many repos intentionally invest in
-fast, warm local loops, and forcing every run through Testbox destroys that
-advantage.
-
-Use Testbox for the checks that actually need it: remote parity, secrets,
-services, CI-only runners, or reproducibility against the workflow image.
-
-If the repo says local tests/builds are the normal path, follow the repo.
-
-OpenClaw maintainer exception: if `OPENCLAW_TESTBOX=1` is set by the user or
-agent environment, treat Testbox as the normal validation path for this repo.
-Use `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK_MODE=throttled|full` as the explicit local escape
-hatch.
-
-## When to use
-
-Use Testbox when:
-
-- running database migrations or destructive environment checks
-- running commands that depend on secrets or environment variables not present locally
-- reproducing CI-only failures or validating against the workflow image
-- validating behavior that needs provisioned services or remote runners
-- doing a final parity check before commit/push when the repo or user wants that
-
-Trim that list based on repo guidance. If the repo documents supported local
-tests/builds, prefer local for routine iteration and keep Testbox for the
-checks that need parity or remote state.
-
-## Workflow
-
-1. Decide whether the repo's local loop is the right default. For OpenClaw,
-   `OPENCLAW_TESTBOX=1` makes Testbox the maintainer default.
-2. If Testbox is warranted, warm up early:
-   `blacksmith testbox warmup ci-check-testbox.yml --ref main --idle-timeout 90` → save the ID,
-   then `pnpm testbox:claim --id <ID>`
-3. Write code while the testbox boots in the background.
-4. Run the remote command when needed:
-   `pnpm testbox:run --id <ID> -- "OPENCLAW_TESTBOX=1 pnpm check:changed"`
-5. If tests fail, fix code and re-run against the same warm box.
-6. If you changed dependency manifests (package.json, etc.), prepend
-   the install command: `blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "npm install && npm test"`
-7. If a narrow PR reports a full sync or the box was reused/expired, sanity
-   check the remote copy before a slow gate:
-   `pnpm testbox:run --id <ID> -- "pnpm testbox:sanity"`.
-   If it reports missing root files or mass tracked deletions, stop the box and
-   warm a fresh one. Use `OPENCLAW_TESTBOX_ALLOW_MASS_DELETIONS=1` only for an
-   intentional large deletion PR.
-8. If you need artifacts (coverage reports, build outputs, etc.), download them:
-   `blacksmith testbox download --id <ID> coverage/ ./coverage/`
-9. Once green, commit and push.
-
-## OpenClaw full test suite
-
-For OpenClaw, use the repo package manager and the measured stable full-suite
-profile below. It keeps six Vitest project shards active while limiting each
-shard to one worker to avoid worker OOMs on Testbox:
-
-    blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "env NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 pnpm test"
-
-Observed full-suite time on Blacksmith Testbox is about 3-4 minutes:
-
-- 173-180s on a warmed box
-- 219s on a fresh 32-vCPU box
-
-When validating before commit/push in maintainer Testbox mode, run
-`pnpm check:changed` inside the warmed box first when appropriate, then the full
-suite with the profile above if broad confidence is needed.
-
-Run `pnpm testbox:sanity` inside the warmed box before the broad command when
-the sync looks suspicious. It checks that root files such as `pnpm-lock.yaml`
-still exist and fails on 200 or more tracked deletions. That catches stale or
-corrupted rsync state before dependency install or Vitest failures hide the real
-problem.
-
-## Examples
-
-    blacksmith testbox warmup ci-check-testbox.yml
-    # → tbx_01jkz5b3t9...
-
-    # Run tests
-    blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "npm test -- --testPathPattern=handler.test"
-    blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "go test ./pkg/api/... -run TestHandler -v"
-    blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "python -m pytest tests/test_api.py -k test_auth"
-
-    # Re-install deps after changing package.json, then test
-    blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "npm install && npm test"
-
-    # Build and test
-    blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "npm run build && npm test"
-
-    # Download artifacts from the testbox
-    blacksmith testbox download --id <ID> coverage/lcov-report/ ./coverage/
-    blacksmith testbox download --id <ID> build/output.tar.gz
-
-## Waiting for the testbox to be ready
-
-The `run` command automatically waits for the testbox, so explicit waiting is
-usually unnecessary. If you do need to check readiness separately (e.g. before
-a series of runs), use the `--wait` flag. Do NOT use a sleep-and-recheck loop.
-
-Correct: block until ready with a timeout:
-
-    blacksmith testbox status --id <ID> --wait [--wait-timeout 5m]
-
-Wrong: never use sleep + status in a loop:
-
-    # BAD — do not do this
-    sleep 30 && blacksmith testbox status --id <ID>
-    while ! blacksmith testbox status --id <ID> | grep ready; do sleep 5; done
-
-`--wait` polls the status and exits as soon as the testbox is ready (or when the
-timeout is reached). Default timeout is 5m; use `--wait-timeout` for longer
-(e.g. `10m`, `1h`).
-
-## Managing testboxes
-
-    # Check status of a specific testbox
-    blacksmith testbox status --id <ID>
-
-    # List all active testboxes for the current repo
-    blacksmith testbox list
-
-    # Stop a testbox when you're done (frees resources)
-    blacksmith testbox stop --id <ID>
-
-Testboxes automatically shut down after being idle (default: 30 minutes).
-If you need a longer session, increase the timeout at warmup time. For OpenClaw
-maintainer work, use 90 minutes for long-running sessions:
-
-    blacksmith testbox warmup ci-check-testbox.yml --idle-timeout 90
-    blacksmith testbox warmup ci-build-artifacts-testbox.yml --idle-timeout 90
-
-## With options
-
-    blacksmith testbox warmup ci-check-testbox.yml --ref main
-    blacksmith testbox warmup ci-check-testbox.yml --idle-timeout 90
-    blacksmith testbox run --id <ID> "go test ./..."

+description: Use Crabbox for OpenClaw remote Linux validation. Default to Blacksmith Testbox; includes direct Blacksmith and owned AWS/Hetzner fallback notes when Crabbox fails.
+---
+
+# Crabbox
+
+Use Crabbox when OpenClaw needs remote Linux proof for broad tests, CI-parity
+checks, secrets, hosted services, Docker/E2E/package lanes, warmed reusable
+boxes, sync timing, logs/results, cache inspection, or lease cleanup.
+
+Default backend: `blacksmith-testbox`. The separate `blacksmith-testbox` skill
+has been removed; this skill owns both the normal Crabbox path and the direct
+Blacksmith fallback playbook.
+
+## First Checks
+
+- Run from the repo root. Crabbox sync mirrors the current checkout.
+- Check the wrapper and providers before remote work:
+
+```sh
+command -v crabbox
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox --version
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --help | sed -n '1,120p'
+```
+
+- OpenClaw scripts prefer `../crabbox/bin/crabbox` when present. The user PATH
+  shim can be stale.
+- Check `.crabbox.yaml` for repo defaults, but override provider explicitly.
+  Even if config still says AWS, maintainer validation should normally pass
+  `--provider blacksmith-testbox`.
+- Prefer local targeted tests for tight edit loops. Broad gates belong remote.
+
+## macOS And Windows Targets
+
+Use these only when the task needs an existing non-Linux host. OpenClaw broad
+validation still defaults to `blacksmith-testbox`.
+
+Crabbox supports static SSH targets:
+
+```sh
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox run --provider ssh --target macos --static-host mac-studio.local -- xcodebuild test
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox run --provider ssh --target windows --windows-mode normal --static-host win-dev.local -- pwsh -NoProfile -Command "dotnet test"
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox run --provider ssh --target windows --windows-mode wsl2 --static-host win-dev.local -- pnpm test
+```
+
+- `target=macos` and `target=windows --windows-mode wsl2` use the POSIX SSH,
+  bash, Git, rsync, and tar contract.
+- Native Windows uses OpenSSH, PowerShell, Git, and tar; sync is manifest tar
+  archive transfer into `static.workRoot`.
+- `crabbox actions hydrate/register` are Linux-only today; use plain
+  `crabbox run` loops for static macOS and Windows hosts.
+- Live proof needs a reachable, operator-managed SSH host. Without one, verify
+  with `../crabbox/bin/crabbox run --help`, config/flag tests, and the Crabbox
+  Go test suite.
+
+## Default Blacksmith Backend
+
+Use this for `pnpm check`, `pnpm check:changed`, `pnpm test`,
+`pnpm test:changed`, Docker/E2E/live/package gates, or anything likely to fan
+out across many Vitest projects.
+
+Changed gate:
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --provider blacksmith-testbox \
+  --blacksmith-org openclaw \
+  --blacksmith-workflow .github/workflows/ci-check-testbox.yml \
+  --blacksmith-job check \
+  --blacksmith-ref main \
+  --idle-timeout 90m \
+  --ttl 240m \
+  --timing-json \
+  --shell -- \
+  "env CI=1 NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 OPENCLAW_VITEST_NO_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT_MS=900000 pnpm test:changed"
+```
+
+Full suite:
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --provider blacksmith-testbox \
+  --blacksmith-org openclaw \
+  --blacksmith-workflow .github/workflows/ci-check-testbox.yml \
+  --blacksmith-job check \
+  --blacksmith-ref main \
+  --idle-timeout 90m \
+  --ttl 240m \
+  --timing-json \
+  --shell -- \
+  "env CI=1 NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 OPENCLAW_VITEST_NO_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT_MS=900000 pnpm test"
+```
+
+Focused rerun:
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --provider blacksmith-testbox \
+  --blacksmith-org openclaw \
+  --blacksmith-workflow .github/workflows/ci-check-testbox.yml \
+  --blacksmith-job check \
+  --blacksmith-ref main \
+  --idle-timeout 90m \
+  --ttl 240m \
+  --timing-json \
+  --shell -- \
+  "env CI=1 NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 OPENCLAW_VITEST_NO_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT_MS=900000 pnpm test <path-or-filter>"
+```
+
+Read the JSON summary. Useful fields:
+
+- `provider`: should be `blacksmith-testbox`
+- `leaseId`: `tbx_...`
+- `syncDelegated`: should be `true`
+- `commandMs` / `totalMs`
+- `exitCode`
+
+Crabbox should stop one-shot Blacksmith Testboxes automatically after the run.
+Verify cleanup when a run fails, is interrupted, or the command output is
+unclear:
+
+```sh
+blacksmith testbox list
+```
+
+## Reuse And Keepalive
+
+For most Blacksmith-backed Crabbox calls, one-shot is enough. Use reuse only
+when you need multiple manual commands on the same hydrated box.
+
+If Crabbox returns a reusable id or you intentionally keep a lease:
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --provider blacksmith-testbox --id <tbx_id> --no-sync --timing-json --shell -- "pnpm test <path>"
+```
+
+Stop boxes you created before handoff:
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:stop -- <id-or-slug>
+blacksmith testbox stop --id <tbx_id>
+```
+
+## If Crabbox Fails
+
+Keep the fallback narrow. First decide whether the failure is Crabbox itself,
+Blacksmith/Testbox, repo hydration, sync, or the test command.
+
+Fast checks:
+
+```sh
+command -v crabbox
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox --version
+crabbox run --provider blacksmith-testbox --help | sed -n '1,140p'
+command -v blacksmith
+blacksmith --version
+blacksmith testbox list
+```
+
+Common Crabbox-only failures:
+
+- Provider missing or old CLI: use `../crabbox/bin/crabbox` from the sibling
+  repo, or update/install Crabbox before retrying.
+- Bad local config: pass `--provider blacksmith-testbox` plus explicit
+  `--blacksmith-*` flags instead of relying on `.crabbox.yaml`.
+- Slug/claim confusion: use the raw `tbx_...` id, or run one-shot without
+  `--id`.
+- Sync/timing bug: add `--debug --timing-json`; capture the final JSON and the
+  printed Actions URL.
+- Cleanup uncertainty: run `blacksmith testbox list` and stop only boxes you
+  created.
+
+If Crabbox cannot dispatch, sync, attach, or stop but Blacksmith itself works,
+use direct Blacksmith from the repo root:
+
+```sh
+blacksmith testbox warmup ci-check-testbox.yml --ref main --idle-timeout 90
+blacksmith testbox run --id <tbx_id> "env CI=1 NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 OPENCLAW_VITEST_NO_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT_MS=900000 pnpm test:changed"
+blacksmith testbox stop --id <tbx_id>
+```
+
+Direct full suite:
+
+```sh
+blacksmith testbox run --id <tbx_id> "env CI=1 NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 OPENCLAW_VITEST_NO_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT_MS=900000 pnpm test"
+```
+
+Auth fallback, only when `blacksmith` says auth is missing:
+
+```sh
+blacksmith auth login --non-interactive --organization openclaw
+```
+
+Raw Blacksmith footguns:
+
+- Run from repo root. The CLI syncs the current directory.
+- Save the returned `tbx_...` id in the session.
+- Reuse that id for focused reruns; stop it before handoff.
+- Raw commit SHAs are not reliable `warmup --ref` refs; use a branch or tag.
+- Treat `blacksmith testbox list` as cleanup diagnostics, not a shared reusable
+  queue.
+
+Escalate to owned AWS/Hetzner only when Blacksmith is down, quota-limited,
+missing the needed environment, or owned capacity is the explicit goal. Use the
+Owned Cloud Fallback section below.
+
+## Blacksmith Backend Notes
+
+Crabbox Blacksmith backend delegates setup to:
+
+- org: `openclaw`
+- workflow: `.github/workflows/ci-check-testbox.yml`
+- job: `check`
+- ref: `main` unless testing a branch/tag intentionally
+
+The hydration workflow owns checkout, Node/pnpm setup, dependency install,
+secrets, ready marker, and keepalive. Crabbox owns dispatch, sync, SSH command
+execution, timing, logs/results, and cleanup.
+
+Minimal direct Blacksmith fallback, from repo root:
+
+```sh
+blacksmith testbox warmup ci-check-testbox.yml --ref main --idle-timeout 90
+blacksmith testbox run --id <tbx_id> "env CI=1 NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 pnpm test:changed"
+blacksmith testbox stop --id <tbx_id>
+```
+
+Use direct Blacksmith only when Crabbox is the broken layer and Blacksmith
+itself still works. Prefer direct `blacksmith testbox list` for cleanup
+diagnostics, not as a reusable work queue.
+
+Important Blacksmith footguns:
+
+- Always run from repo root. The CLI syncs the current directory.
+- Raw commit SHAs are not reliable `warmup --ref` refs; use a branch or tag.
+- If auth is missing and browser auth is acceptable:
+
+```sh
+blacksmith auth login --non-interactive --organization openclaw
+```
+
+## Owned Cloud Fallback
+
+Use AWS/Hetzner only when Blacksmith is down, quota-limited, missing the needed
+environment, or owned capacity is explicitly the goal.
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:warmup -- --provider aws --class beast --market on-demand --idle-timeout 90m
+pnpm crabbox:hydrate -- --id <cbx_id-or-slug>
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --timing-json --shell -- "env NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 OPENCLAW_VITEST_NO_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT_MS=900000 pnpm test:changed"
+pnpm crabbox:stop -- <cbx_id-or-slug>
+```
+
+Install/auth for owned Crabbox if needed:
+
+```sh
+brew install openclaw/tap/crabbox
+printf '%s' "$CRABBOX_COORDINATOR_TOKEN" | crabbox login --url https://crabbox.openclaw.ai --provider aws --token-stdin
+```
+
+macOS config lives at:
+
+```text
+~/Library/Application Support/crabbox/config.yaml
+```
+
+It should include `broker.url`, `broker.token`, and usually `provider: aws`
+for owned-cloud lanes. Do not let that config override the OpenClaw default
+when Blacksmith proof is requested; pass `--provider blacksmith-testbox`.
+
+### Interactive Desktop / WebVNC
+
+For human WebVNC demos, keep the remote desktop visible and windowed. Do not
+fullscreen the remote browser or hide the XFCE panel/window chrome unless the
+explicit goal is video/capture output. After launch, verify a screenshot shows
+the desktop panel plus browser title bar. If Chrome is fullscreen, toggle it
+back with:
+
+```sh
+crabbox run --id <lease> --shell -- 'DISPLAY=:99 xdotool search --onlyvisible --class google-chrome windowactivate key F11'
+```
+
+## Diagnostics
+
+```sh
+crabbox status --id <id-or-slug> --wait
+crabbox inspect --id <id-or-slug> --json
+crabbox sync-plan
+crabbox history --lease <id-or-slug>
+crabbox logs <run_id>
+crabbox results <run_id>
+crabbox cache stats --id <id-or-slug>
+crabbox ssh --id <id-or-slug>
+blacksmith testbox list
+```
+
+Use `--debug` on `run` when measuring sync timing.
+Use `--timing-json` on warmup, hydrate, and run when comparing backends.
+Use `--market spot|on-demand` only on AWS warmup/one-shot runs.
+
+## Failure Triage
+
+- Crabbox cannot find provider: verify `../crabbox/bin/crabbox --help` lists
+  `blacksmith-testbox`; update Crabbox before falling back.
+- Hydration stuck or failed: open the printed GitHub Actions run URL and inspect
+  the hydration step.
+- Sync failed: rerun with `--debug`; check changed-file count and whether the
+  checkout is dirty.
+- Command failed: rerun only the failing shard/file first. Do not rerun a full
+  suite until the focused failure is understood.
+- Cleanup uncertain: `blacksmith testbox list`; stop owned `tbx_...` leases you
+  created.
+- Crabbox broken but Blacksmith works: use the direct Blacksmith fallback above,
+  then file/fix the Crabbox issue.
+
+## Boundary
+
+Do not add OpenClaw-specific setup to Crabbox itself. Put repo setup in the
+hydration workflow and keep Crabbox generic around lease, sync, command
+execution, logs/results, timing, and cleanup.

 - The Windows same-guest update helper should write stage markers to its log before long steps like tgz download and `npm install -g` so the outer progress monitor does not sit on `waiting for first log line` during healthy but quiet installs.
 - 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.
 - The npm-update wrapper now prints per-lane progress from the nested log files. If a lane still looks stuck, inspect the nested logs in `runDir` first (`macos-fresh.log`, `windows-fresh.log`, `linux-fresh.log`, `macos-update.log`, `windows-update.log`, `linux-update.log`) instead of assuming the outer wrapper hung.
-- If the wrapper fails a lane, read the auto-dumped tail first, then the full nested lane log under `/tmp/openclaw-parallels-npm-update.*`.
+- Each run writes both `summary.json` and `summary.md`; read the markdown first for quick human triage, then the JSON/timings for automation.
+- For full beta validation after a tag is published, prefer one command:
+  - `timeout --foreground 150m pnpm test:parallels:npm-update -- --beta-validation beta3 --json`
+    This resolves `beta3` to the latest `*-beta.3` version, runs latest->that-version same-guest update coverage, and then runs fresh install smoke for that exact published target on the same selected OS matrix. Use `--platform macos|windows|linux` to narrow reruns.
+- For beta 4 npm validation with agent turns, the known-good shape is:
+  - `gtimeout --foreground 150m pnpm test:parallels:npm-update -- --beta-validation beta4 --model openai/gpt-5.4 --json`
+    Prefer the explicit `beta4` alias over `openclaw@beta` when validating a specific prerelease number; npm tags can move.
+- If the wrapper fails a lane, read the auto-dumped tail first, then the full nested lane log under `.artifacts/parallels/openclaw-parallels-npm-update.*`.
 - Current known macOS update-lane transport signature when the fallback is missing or bypassed: `Unable to authenticate the user. Make sure that the specified credentials are correct and try again.` Treat that as Parallels current-user authentication before blaming npm or OpenClaw.
+- A macOS packaged fresh install with global package directories or bundled files mode `0777` usually means the harness used the root `prlctl exec` fallback under a permissive umask. The POSIX guest transports should prepend `umask 022`; verify the phase preflight line before blaming npm.

+## Surface opener identity
+
+- For every reviewed, triaged, closed, or landed issue/PR, show the opener's human name when available, GitHub login, and account age.
+- Get the login from `gh issue view` / `gh pr view` (`author.login`), then fetch profile metadata once with `gh api users/<login> --jq '{login,name,created_at,type}'`.
+- Report account age as created date plus rough age, for example `Opened by Jane Doe (@jane, account created 2021-04-03, ~5y old)`.
+- Also show recent GitHub activity when it informs maintainer risk: OpenClaw PRs, issues, and commits in the last 12 months; for linked issue-fixing PRs, include both the PR author and issue opener when they differ.
+- Prefer the bundled helper for activity lookups:
+
+```bash
+.agents/skills/openclaw-pr-maintainer/scripts/github-activity.sh <login> [other-login...]
+.agents/skills/openclaw-pr-maintainer/scripts/github-activity.sh --global <login>
+```
+
+- The helper reports repo-local activity first and can fetch public GitHub contribution totals for the same window with `--global`.
+- The helper is intentionally cache-friendly for gitcrawl-backed `gh`: it rounds repo-local windows to the UTC day, rounds global contribution windows to the UTC hour, and counts PRs/issues from one paginated issues response before fetching commits separately. Prefer reusing the helper instead of hand-rolling several `gh api` loops.
+- Report activity compactly, for example `OpenClaw last 12mo: 4 PRs, 2 issues, 11 commits; GitHub public last 12mo: 86 commits, 9 PRs, 3 issues, 12 reviews`.
+- If `name` is empty, use the login only. If profile lookup is rate-limited or unavailable, say `account age unknown` rather than omitting the opener.
+- Use identity and activity as triage signal, not proof by itself: new, low-activity, or bot-like accounts can raise review caution, but code, repro, and CI evidence still decide.

+## Suppress top-maintainer items in issue triage
+
+When Peter asks for issue triage, hot issues, pressing bugs, Discord-correlated issues, or "what is still open", do not surface issues or PRs authored by top maintainers by default. He wants external/user-reported hot issues and external PRs, not maintainer-owned work queues.

+- `@tyler6204`
+- `@velvet-shark`
+- `@jalehman`
+- `@frankekn`
+- `@ImLukeF`
+- `@mcaxtr`
+
+Exceptions:
+
+- Show maintainer-authored items when Peter explicitly asks for maintainer PRs/issues, PR landing candidates, release-blocking maintainer work, or a specific PR/issue number.
+- Show a maintainer-authored item when it is the canonical fix for an external hot issue, but frame it as the fix path rather than as a user-facing issue candidate.
+- Do not close, label, or deprioritize solely because an item is maintainer-authored; this section only controls what appears in triage shortlists.
+
 ## Apply close and triage labels correctly
 
 - If an issue or PR matches an auto-close reason, apply the label and let `.github/workflows/auto-response.yml` handle the comment/close/lock flow.
 - Do not manually close plus manually comment for these reasons.
+- If an issue/PR is already fixed on current `main` or solved by a new release, comment with proof plus the canonical commit/PR/release, then close it.

+
+# OpenClaw Small Bugfix Sweep
+
+Batch workflow for pasted OpenClaw issue/PR refs.
+Execute, do not summarize.
+Triage does not commit, push, create PRs, comment, close, label, land, or merge.
+
+## Peter Review Gate
+
+Peter always wants to review code before commits.
+After local fixes and proof, stop with the diff summary, touched files, and test/gate output.
+Do not commit unless Peter writes `commit` in the current instruction for the exact diff being handled.
+Do not treat earlier messages, inferred intent, "next", sweep momentum, or bundled publish language as commit permission.
+If Peter asks for follow-up work without saying `commit`, keep the files dirty after local fixes and proof.
+Do not push, comment, close, label, land, merge, or otherwise publish until Peter explicitly asks for that exact action after the code has been reviewed.
+If Peter asks for a bundled action like `commit push close`, first confirm the code has already been reviewed in chat; if not, stop with the dirty diff and ask for review/approval.
+
+## Companion Skills
+
+Use `$gitcrawl` first, `$openclaw-pr-maintainer` for live GitHub hygiene, `$github-deep-review` posture for source tracing, and `$openclaw-testing` for proof.
+
+## Loop
+
+For each ref:
+
+1. Read live target with `gh`.
+2. Check `gitcrawl` for related, duplicate, closed, or already-fixed threads.
+3. Read body, comments, linked refs, changed files, current code, adjacent tests, and dependency contracts when relevant.
+4. Trace the real runtime path.
+5. For issues: fix locally only if this is a bug, current code proves root cause, the implicated path is clear, and a narrow patch is cleaner than refactor.
+6. For PRs: decide `ready-to-merge`, `needs-fixup`, or `skip`; do not alter PR branches unless explicitly asked.
+7. Add focused regression proof when practical for local issue fixes or PR readiness checks.
+8. Run the smallest meaningful gate.
+9. Continue until every pasted ref is fixed or classified.
+
+No subagents unless explicitly requested.
+
+## Skip If
+
+- not a bug
+- config/docs/workflow/release/support/dependency/product work
+- repro or root cause is uncertain
+- larger refactor or owner-boundary change is cleaner
+- already fixed on current `main`
+- dependency behavior is guessed
+- no focused proof is feasible
+
+Skip with terse reason. Do not pad with low-confidence fixes.
+
+## Fix Rules
+
+- owner module first; generic seam only when required
+- existing patterns/helpers/types
+- no drive-by refactors
+- tests near failing surface
+- docs only for changed public behavior
+- no commit unless Peter writes `commit` in the current instruction
+- no push/create PR/comment/close/label/land/merge unless explicitly asked for that exact action after review
+
+## PR Rules
+
+- `ready-to-merge`: code is good, current head checked, required proof is green or clearly pending only external CI; list for maintainer merge or `@clawsweeper automerge`
+- `needs-fixup`: small bug is clear, but PR branch needs changes; list exact files/tests and wait for explicit fix/push/automerge instruction
+- `skip`: broad, stale, speculative, config/product/security/release, owner-boundary, or refactor-sized
+- if source PR is untrusted/uneditable, do not create a replacement PR during sweep
+
+## Output Shape
+
+Ledger: `fixed-local`, `ready-to-merge`, `needs-fixup`, `skipped`, `needs-human`.
+Final: issue files left on disk, PRs ready for merge/automerge, tests/gates, skip reasons.

 Use this skill for test-memory investigations. Do not guess from RSS alone when heap snapshots are available. Treat snapshot-name deltas as triage evidence, not proof, until retainers or dominators support the call.
 
+For **runtime fixes** (e.g., closure leaks in long-running services like the gateway), see [Validating runtime fixes](#validating-runtime-fixes-not-test-memory) below — that uses a dedicated harness, not the test-parallel snapshot machinery.
+
 ## Workflow
 
 1. Reproduce the failing shape first.
@@ -63,6 +65,38 @@ Use this skill for test-memory investigations. Do not guess from RSS alone when
 
 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. If the names alone do not settle it, open the same snapshot pair in DevTools and inspect retainers/dominators for the top rows before declaring root cause.
 
+## Validating runtime fixes (not test-memory)
+
+The workflow above is for diagnosing Vitest worker memory growth. For
+validating that a runtime/closure fix actually releases captured state, use the
+dedicated harness:
+
+- `pnpm leak:embedded-run` — runs `scripts/embedded-run-abort-leak.ts`. Loops N
+  aborted runs in a function-shaped scope mimicking `runEmbeddedAttempt`,
+  writes heap snapshots, and reports a PASS/FAIL verdict on retention growth
+  using `FinalizationRegistry` for tracked-instance counting plus RSS delta.
+
+Modes:
+
+- `closure-extracted` (default) — production fix shape (helper at module scope).
+- `closure-inline` — pre-fix shape (closure inside the runner scope). Use as a
+  sensitivity check: if it passes you've broken the harness, not fixed a bug.
+- `synthetic-leak` — deliberately retains via a module-level bucket. Use to
+  confirm the harness can detect leaks before trusting a PASS on a real fix.
+
+Snapshots land in `.tmp/embedded-run-abort-leak/`. Diff with the same script
+as above:
+
+```
+node .agents/skills/openclaw-test-heap-leaks/scripts/heapsnapshot-delta.mjs \
+  .tmp/embedded-run-abort-leak/baseline-*.heapsnapshot \
+  .tmp/embedded-run-abort-leak/batch-N-*.heapsnapshot --top 30
+```
+
+When fixing a different runtime leak, add a new harness alongside this one
+rather than retrofitting it. The fixture function should mimic the lexical
+scope of the function where the leak lives, not be a generic abort-loop.
+

-4. **For each commit, check:**
-   - Skip: changelog updates, doc-only changes, release housekeeping
-   - Determine which package(s) the commit affects (use `git show <hash> --stat`)
-   - Verify a changelog entry exists in the affected package(s)
-   - For external contributions (PRs), verify format: `Description ([#N](url) by [@user](url))`
-
-5. **Cross-package duplication rule:**
-   Changes in `ai`, `agent` or `tui` that affect end users should be duplicated to `coding-agent` changelog, since coding-agent is the user-facing package that depends on them.
-
-6. **Add New Features section after changelog fixes:**
-   - Insert a `### New Features` section at the start of `## [Unreleased]` in `packages/coding-agent/CHANGELOG.md`.
-   - Propose the top new features to the user for confirmation before writing them.
-   - Link to relevant docs and sections whenever possible.
-
-7. **Report:**
-   - List commits with missing entries
-   - List entries that need cross-package duplication
-   - Add any missing entries directly

 - Run tests: `pnpm build && pnpm check && pnpm test`
 - For iterative local commits, `scripts/committer --fast "message" <files...>` passes `FAST_COMMIT=1` through to the pre-commit hook so it skips the repo-wide `pnpm check`. Only use it when you've already run equivalent targeted validation for the touched surface.

+This policy does two things: it gives researchers a clear disclosure path, and it spells out the trust model maintainers use when triaging reports.

+These patterns are usually not vulnerabilities by themselves:

+- Prompt injection without a policy, auth, approval, sandbox, or tool-boundary bypass.
+- A trusted operator using an intentional local feature, such as local shell access or browser/script execution.
+- A malicious plugin after a trusted operator installs or enables it.
+- Multiple adversarial users sharing one Gateway host/config and expecting per-user isolation.
+- Scanner-only, dependency-only, or stale-path reports without a working repro and demonstrated OpenClaw impact.

 ## Security Scanning
 
-This project uses `detect-secrets` for automated secret detection in CI/CD.
-See `.detect-secrets.cfg` for configuration and `.secrets.baseline` for the baseline.
+OpenClaw uses several security and release-validation layers. No single scanner is treated as the boundary.
 
-Run locally:
+### Secret Detection
+
+OpenClaw runs the pre-commit `detect-private-key` hook in CI and keeps secret-resolution behavior covered by the dedicated secrets test surface.
+
+Run the key scan locally:
 
 ```bash
-pip install detect-secrets==1.5.0
-detect-secrets scan --baseline .secrets.baseline
+pre-commit run --all-files detect-private-key
 ```
+
+### Static Analysis
+
+CI runs CodeQL across core TypeScript, GitHub Actions, Android, macOS, and high-risk runtime boundaries using `.github/workflows/codeql*.yml` and `.github/codeql/*.yml`.
+
+OpenGrep provides a high-precision Semgrep-compatible layer. PRs run a changed-path scan; maintainers can run a full repository scan when needed. The rulepack lives under `security/opengrep/`, with `.semgrepignore` as the shared exclusion file.
+
+Run the local OpenGrep wrapper after installing `opengrep`:
+
+```bash
+scripts/run-opengrep.sh --changed --sarif --error
+pnpm check:opengrep-rule-metadata
+```
+
+### E2E and Live Validation
+
+Security-relevant behavior is also covered by runtime validation, not only static scanning:
+
+- `pnpm test:e2e` for repo E2E coverage.
+- `pnpm test:live` for live provider/runtime coverage.
+- `pnpm test:docker:all` for Docker-packaged runtime scenarios.
+- Package acceptance and scheduled live/E2E workflows for release-path validation.
+
+These lanes exercise packaged installs, gateway/runtime behavior, live model/provider paths, Docker scenarios, and platform smoke tests. They complement scanners by proving the security-sensitive flows still behave correctly in real runtime environments.
