+description: Update OpenClaw from upstream when branch has diverged (ahead/behind)
+---
+
+# OpenClaw Upstream Sync Workflow
+
+Use this workflow when your fork has diverged from upstream (e.g., "18 commits ahead, 29 commits behind").
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+```bash
+# Check divergence status
+git fetch upstream && git rev-list --left-right --count main...upstream/main
+
+# Full sync (rebase preferred)
+git fetch upstream && git rebase upstream/main && pnpm install && pnpm build && ./scripts/restart-mac.sh
+
+# Check for Swift 6.2 issues after sync
+grep -r "FileManager\.default\|Thread\.isMainThread" src/ apps/ --include="*.swift"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 1: Assess Divergence
+
+```bash
+git fetch upstream
+git log --oneline --left-right main...upstream/main | head -20
+```
+
+This shows:
+
+- `<` = your local commits (ahead)
+- `>` = upstream commits you're missing (behind)
+
+**Decision point:**
+
+- Few local commits, many upstream → **Rebase** (cleaner history)
+- Many local commits or shared branch → **Merge** (preserves history)
+
+---
+
+## Step 2A: Rebase Strategy (Preferred)
+
+Replays your commits on top of upstream. Results in linear history.
+
+```bash
+# Ensure working tree is clean
+git status
+
+# Rebase onto upstream
+git rebase upstream/main
+```
+
+### Handling Rebase Conflicts
+
+```bash
+# When conflicts occur:
+# 1. Fix conflicts in the listed files
+# 2. Stage resolved files
+git add <resolved-files>
+
+# 3. Continue rebase
+git rebase --continue
+
+# If a commit is no longer needed (already in upstream):
+git rebase --skip
+
+# To abort and return to original state:
+git rebase --abort
+```
+
+### Common Conflict Patterns
+
+| File             | Resolution                                       |
+| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
+| `package.json`   | Take upstream deps, keep local scripts if needed |
+| `pnpm-lock.yaml` | Accept upstream, regenerate with `pnpm install`  |
+| `*.patch` files  | Usually take upstream version                    |
+| Source files     | Merge logic carefully, prefer upstream structure |
+
+---
+
+## Step 2B: Merge Strategy (Alternative)
+
+Preserves all history with a merge commit.
+
+```bash
+git merge upstream/main --no-edit
+```
+
+Resolve conflicts same as rebase, then:
+
+```bash
+git add <resolved-files>
+git commit
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 3: Rebuild Everything
+
+After sync completes:
+
+```bash
+# Install dependencies (regenerates lock if needed)
+pnpm install
+
+# Build TypeScript
+pnpm build
+
+# Build UI assets
+pnpm ui:build
+
+# Run diagnostics
+pnpm clawdbot doctor
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 4: Rebuild macOS App
+
+```bash
+# Full rebuild, sign, and launch
+./scripts/restart-mac.sh
+
+# Or just package without restart
+pnpm mac:package
+```
+
+### Install to /Applications
+
+```bash
+# Kill running app
+pkill -x "OpenClaw" || true
+
+# Move old version
+mv /Applications/OpenClaw.app /tmp/OpenClaw-backup.app
+
+# Install new build
+cp -R dist/OpenClaw.app /Applications/
+
+# Launch
+open /Applications/OpenClaw.app
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 4A: Verify macOS App & Agent
+
+After rebuilding the macOS app, always verify it works correctly:
+
+```bash
+# Check gateway health
+pnpm clawdbot health
+
+# Verify no zombie processes
+ps aux | grep -E "(clawdbot|gateway)" | grep -v grep
+
+# Test agent functionality by sending a verification message
+pnpm clawdbot agent --message "Verification: macOS app rebuild successful - agent is responding." --session-id YOUR_TELEGRAM_SESSION_ID
+
+# Confirm the message was received on Telegram
+# (Check your Telegram chat with the bot)
+```
+
+**Important:** Always wait for the Telegram verification message before proceeding. If the agent doesn't respond, troubleshoot the gateway or model configuration before pushing.
+
+---
+
+## Step 5: Handle Swift/macOS Build Issues (Common After Upstream Sync)
+
+Upstream updates may introduce Swift 6.2 / macOS 26 SDK incompatibilities. Use analyze-mode for systematic debugging:
+
+### Analyze-Mode Investigation
+
+```bash
+# Gather context with parallel agents
+morph-mcp_warpgrep_codebase_search search_string="Find deprecated FileManager.default and Thread.isMainThread usages in Swift files" repo_path="/Volumes/Main SSD/Developer/clawdis"
+morph-mcp_warpgrep_codebase_search search_string="Locate Peekaboo submodule and macOS app Swift files with concurrency issues" repo_path="/Volumes/Main SSD/Developer/clawdis"
+```
+
+### Common Swift 6.2 Fixes
+
+**FileManager.default Deprecation:**
+
+```bash
+# Search for deprecated usage
+grep -r "FileManager\.default" src/ apps/ --include="*.swift"
+
+# Replace with proper initialization
+# OLD: FileManager.default
+# NEW: FileManager()
+```
+
+**Thread.isMainThread Deprecation:**
+
+```bash
+# Search for deprecated usage
+grep -r "Thread\.isMainThread" src/ apps/ --include="*.swift"
+
+# Replace with modern concurrency check
+# OLD: Thread.isMainThread
+# NEW: await MainActor.run { ... } or DispatchQueue.main.sync { ... }
+```
+
+### Peekaboo Submodule Fixes
+
+```bash
+# Check Peekaboo for concurrency issues
+cd src/canvas-host/a2ui
+grep -r "Thread\.isMainThread\|FileManager\.default" . --include="*.swift"
+
+# Fix and rebuild submodule
+cd /Volumes/Main SSD/Developer/clawdis
+pnpm canvas:a2ui:bundle
+```
+
+### macOS App Concurrency Fixes
+
+```bash
+# Check macOS app for issues
+grep -r "Thread\.isMainThread\|FileManager\.default" apps/macos/ --include="*.swift"
+
+# Clean and rebuild after fixes
+cd apps/macos && rm -rf .build .swiftpm
+./scripts/restart-mac.sh
+```
+
+### Model Configuration Updates
+
+If upstream introduced new model configurations:
+
+```bash
+# Check for OpenRouter API key requirements
+grep -r "openrouter\|OPENROUTER" src/ --include="*.ts" --include="*.js"
+
+# Update openclaw.json with fallback chains
+# Add model fallback configurations as needed
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 6: Verify & Push
+
+```bash
+# Verify everything works
+pnpm clawdbot health
+pnpm test
+
+# Push (force required after rebase)
+git push origin main --force-with-lease
+
+# Or regular push after merge
+git push origin main
+```
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Build Fails After Sync
+
+```bash
+# Clean and rebuild
+rm -rf node_modules dist
+pnpm install
+pnpm build
+```
+
+### Type Errors (Bun/Node Incompatibility)
+
+Common issue: `fetch.preconnect` type mismatch. Fix by using `FetchLike` type instead of `typeof fetch`.
+
+### macOS App Crashes on Launch
+
+Usually resource bundle mismatch. Full rebuild required:
+
+```bash
+cd apps/macos && rm -rf .build .swiftpm
+./scripts/restart-mac.sh
+```
+
+### Patch Failures
+
+```bash
+# Check patch status
+pnpm install 2>&1 | grep -i patch
+
+# If patches fail, they may need updating for new dep versions
+# Check patches/ directory against package.json patchedDependencies
+```
+
+### Swift 6.2 / macOS 26 SDK Build Failures
+
+**Symptoms:** Build fails with deprecation warnings about `FileManager.default` or `Thread.isMainThread`
+
+**Search-Mode Investigation:**
+
+```bash
+# Exhaustive search for deprecated APIs
+morph-mcp_warpgrep_codebase_search search_string="Find all Swift files using deprecated FileManager.default or Thread.isMainThread" repo_path="/Volumes/Main SSD/Developer/clawdis"
+```
+
+**Quick Fix Commands:**
+
+```bash
+# Find all affected files
+find . -name "*.swift" -exec grep -l "FileManager\.default\|Thread\.isMainThread" {} \;
+
+# Replace FileManager.default with FileManager()
+find . -name "*.swift" -exec sed -i '' 's/FileManager\.default/FileManager()/g' {} \;
+
+# For Thread.isMainThread, need manual review of each usage
+grep -rn "Thread\.isMainThread" --include="*.swift" .
+```
+
+**Rebuild After Fixes:**
+
+```bash
+# Clean all build artifacts
+rm -rf apps/macos/.build apps/macos/.swiftpm
+rm -rf src/canvas-host/a2ui/.build
+
+# Rebuild Peekaboo bundle
+pnpm canvas:a2ui:bundle
+
+# Full macOS rebuild
+./scripts/restart-mac.sh
+```
+

+   - 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.
-   - If the names are ambiguous, stop short of a confident label and inspect retainers/dominators in DevTools for the top deltas.
 
 4. Fix the right layer.
-   - For likely retained transformed-module growth in shared workers:
-   - Prefer timing and hotspot-driven scheduling fixes first. Check whether the file is already represented in `test/fixtures/test-timings.unit.json` and whether `scripts/test-update-memory-hotspots.mjs` should refresh the measured hotspot manifest before hand-editing behavior overrides.
-   - Move hotspot files out of the real shared lane by updating `test/fixtures/test-parallel.behavior.json` only when timing-driven peeling is insufficient.
+   - 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.

 ## Heuristics
 
-- Do not call everything a leak. In this repo, large `unit-fast` or `unit-fast-batch-*` growth can be a worker-lifetime problem rather than an application object leak.
+- 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, then confirm ambiguous calls with retainer evidence.
+- 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-batch-2`
+  - `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. 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.

 - When tests need example Anthropic/OpenAI model constants, prefer `sonnet-4.6` and `gpt-5.4`; update older Anthropic/GPT examples when you touch those tests.
 - Run `pnpm test` (or `pnpm test:coverage`) before pushing when you touch logic.
 - Write tests to clean up timers, env, globals, mocks, sockets, temp dirs, and module state so `--isolate=false` stays green.
-- Test performance guardrail: do not put `vi.resetModules()` plus `await import(...)` in `beforeEach`/per-test loops for heavy modules unless module state truly requires it. Prefer static imports or one-time `beforeAll` imports, then reset mocks/runtime state directly.
-- Test performance guardrail: if a test file uses stable `vi.mock(...)` hoists or other static module mocks, do not pair them with `vi.resetModules()` and a fresh `await import(...)` in every `beforeEach`. Import the heavy module once in `beforeAll`, then reset/prime mocks in `beforeEach` so Browser/Matrix-style hotspot tests do not pay the module graph cost per case.
-- Test performance guardrail: inside an extension package, prefer a thin local seam (`./api.ts`, `./runtime-api.ts`, or a narrower local `*.runtime-api.ts`) over direct `openclaw/plugin-sdk/*` imports for internal production code. Keep local seams curated and lightweight; only reach for direct `plugin-sdk/*` imports when you are crossing a real package boundary or when no suitable local seam exists yet.
-- Test performance guardrail: keep expensive runtime fallback work such as snapshotting, migration, installs, or bootstrap behind dedicated `*.runtime.ts` boundaries so tests can mock the seam instead of accidentally invoking real work.
-- Test performance guardrail: for import-only/runtime-wrapper tests, keep the wrapper lazy. Do not eagerly load heavy verification/bootstrap/runtime modules at module top level if the exported function can import them on demand.
 - Agents MUST NOT modify baseline, inventory, ignore, snapshot, or expected-failure files to silence failing checks without explicit approval in this chat.
 - For targeted/local debugging, keep using the wrapper: `pnpm test -- <path-or-filter> [vitest args...]` (for example `pnpm test -- src/commands/onboard-search.test.ts -t "shows registered plugin providers"`); do not default to raw `pnpm vitest run ...` because it bypasses wrapper config/profile/pool routing.
 - Do not set test workers above 16; tried already.

 ## Unreleased
 
-### Changes
-
-- Android/assistant: auto-send Google Assistant App Actions prompts once chat is healthy and idle, while keeping bare assistant launches as open-only. (#59721) Thanks @obviyus.
-
-### Fixes
-
-- Agents/tools: include value-shape hints in missing-parameter tool errors so dropped, empty-string, and wrong-type write payloads are easier to diagnose from logs. (#55317) Thanks @priyansh19.
-- Plugins/browser: block SSRF redirect bypass by installing a real-time Playwright route handler before `page.goto()` so navigation to private/internal IPs is intercepted and aborted mid-redirect instead of checked post-hoc. (#58771) Thanks @pgondhi987.
-- Android/assistant: keep queued App Actions prompts pending when auto-send enqueue is rejected, so transient chat-health drops do not silently lose the assistant request. Thanks @obviyus.
-- Zalo/webhook: scope replay-dedupe cache key to path and account using `JSON.stringify` so multi-account deployments do not silently drop events due to cross-account cache poisoning. (#59387) Thanks @pgondhi987.
-- Plugins/Google: separate OAuth CSRF state from PKCE code verifier during Gemini browser sign-in so state validation and token exchange use independent values. (#59116) Thanks @eleqtrizit.
-- Exec/Windows: reject malformed drive-less rooted executable paths like `:\Users\...` so approval and allowlist candidate resolution no longer treat them as cwd-relative commands. (#58040) Thanks @SnowSky1.
-- Exec/preflight: fail closed on complex interpreter invocations that would otherwise skip script-content validation, and correctly inspect quoted script paths before host execution. Thanks @pgondhi987.

-## 2026.4.2-beta.1
-
-### Breaking
-
-- Plugins/xAI: move `x_search` settings from the legacy core `tools.web.x_search.*` path to the plugin-owned `plugins.entries.xai.config.xSearch.*` path, standardize `x_search` auth on `plugins.entries.xai.config.webSearch.apiKey` / `XAI_API_KEY`, and migrate legacy config with `openclaw doctor --fix`. (#59674) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Plugins/web fetch: move Firecrawl `web_fetch` config from the legacy core `tools.web.fetch.firecrawl.*` path to the plugin-owned `plugins.entries.firecrawl.config.webFetch.*` path, route `web_fetch` fallback through the new fetch-provider boundary instead of a Firecrawl-only core branch, and migrate legacy config with `openclaw doctor --fix`. (#59465) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-
-### Changes
-
-- Tasks/TaskFlow: restore the core TaskFlow substrate with managed-vs-mirrored sync modes, durable flow state/revision tracking, and `openclaw flows` inspection/recovery primitives so background orchestration can persist and be operated separately from plugin authoring layers. (#58930) Thanks @mbelinky.
-- Tasks/TaskFlow: add managed child task spawning plus sticky cancel intent, so external orchestrators can stop scheduling immediately and let parent TaskFlows settle to `cancelled` once active child tasks finish. (#59610) Thanks @mbelinky.
-- Plugins/TaskFlow: add a bound `api.runtime.taskFlow` seam so plugins and trusted authoring layers can create and drive managed TaskFlows from host-resolved OpenClaw context without passing owner identifiers on each call. (#59622) Thanks @mbelinky.
-- Android/assistant: add assistant-role entrypoints plus Google Assistant App Actions metadata so Android can launch OpenClaw from the assistant trigger and hand prompts into the chat composer. (#59596) Thanks @obviyus.
-- Exec defaults: make gateway/node host exec default to YOLO mode by requesting `security=full` with `ask=off`, and align host approval-file fallbacks plus docs/doctor reporting with that no-prompt default.
-- Providers/runtime: add provider-owned replay hook surfaces for transcript policy, replay cleanup, and reasoning-mode dispatch. (#59143) Thanks @jalehman.
-- Plugins/hooks: add `before_agent_reply` so plugins can short-circuit the LLM with synthetic replies after inline actions. (#20067) Thanks @JoshuaLelon.
-- Channels/session routing: move provider-specific session conversation grammar into plugin-owned session-key surfaces, preserving Telegram topic routing and Feishu scoped inheritance across bootstrap, model override, restart, and tool-policy paths.
-- Feishu/comments: add a dedicated Drive comment-event flow with comment-thread context resolution, in-thread replies, and `feishu_drive` comment actions for document collaboration workflows. (#58497) Thanks @wittam-01.
-- Matrix/plugin: emit spec-compliant `m.mentions` metadata across text sends, media captions, edits, poll fallback text, and action-driven edits so Matrix mentions notify reliably in clients like Element. (#59323) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Diffs: add plugin-owned `viewerBaseUrl` so viewer links can use a stable proxy/public origin without passing `baseUrl` on every tool call. (#59341) Related #59227. Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Agents/compaction: resolve `agents.defaults.compaction.model` consistently for manual `/compact` and other context-engine compaction paths, so engine-owned compaction uses the configured override model across runtime entrypoints. (#56710) Thanks @oliviareid-svg.
-- Agents/compaction: add `agents.defaults.compaction.notifyUser` so the `🧹 Compacting context...` start notice is opt-in instead of always being shown. (#54251) Thanks @oguricap0327.
-- WhatsApp/reactions: add `reactionLevel` guidance for agent reactions. Thanks @mcaxtr.
-- Exec approvals/channels: auto-enable DM-first native chat approvals when supported channels can infer approvers from existing owner config, while keeping channel fanout explicit and clarifying forwarding versus native approval client config.

-### Fixes
-
-- Providers/transport policy: centralize request auth, proxy, TLS, and header shaping across shared HTTP, stream, and websocket paths, block insecure TLS/runtime transport overrides, and keep proxy-hop TLS separate from target mTLS settings. (#59682) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Providers/Copilot: classify native GitHub Copilot API hosts in the shared provider endpoint resolver and harden token-derived proxy endpoint parsing so Copilot base URL routing stays centralized and fails closed on malformed hints. (#59644) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Providers/streaming headers: centralize default and attribution header merging across OpenAI websocket, embedded-runner, and proxy stream paths so provider-specific headers stay consistent and caller overrides only win where intended. (#59542) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Providers/media HTTP: centralize base URL normalization, default auth/header injection, and explicit header override handling across shared OpenAI-compatible audio, Deepgram audio, Gemini media/image, and Moonshot video request paths. (#59469) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Providers/OpenAI-compatible routing: centralize native-vs-proxy request policy so hidden attribution and related OpenAI-family defaults only apply on verified native endpoints across stream, websocket, and shared audio HTTP paths. (#59433) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Providers/Anthropic routing: centralize native-vs-proxy endpoint classification for direct Anthropic `service_tier` handling so spoofed or proxied hosts do not inherit native Anthropic defaults. (#59608) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/exec loopback: restore legacy-role fallback for empty paired-device token maps and allow silent local role upgrades so local exec and node clients stop failing with pairing-required errors after `2026.3.31`. (#59092) Thanks @openperf.
-- Agents/subagents: pin admin-only subagent gateway calls to `operator.admin` while keeping `agent` at least privilege, so `sessions_spawn` no longer dies on loopback scope-upgrade pairing with `close(1008) "pairing required"`. (#59555) Thanks @openperf.
-- Exec approvals/config: strip invalid `security`, `ask`, and `askFallback` values from `~/.openclaw/exec-approvals.json` during normalization so malformed policy enums fall back cleanly to the documented defaults instead of corrupting runtime policy resolution. (#59112) Thanks @openperf.
-- Exec approvals/doctor: report host policy sources from the real approvals file path and ignore malformed host override values when attributing effective policy conflicts. (#59367) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Slack/mrkdwn formatting: add built-in Slack mrkdwn guidance in inbound context so Slack replies stop falling back to generic Markdown patterns that render poorly in Slack. (#59100) Thanks @jadewon.
-- WhatsApp/presence: send `unavailable` presence on connect in self-chat mode so personal-phone users stop losing all push notifications while the gateway is running. (#59410) Thanks @mcaxtr.
-- WhatsApp/media: add HTML, XML, and CSS to the MIME map and fall back gracefully for unknown media types instead of dropping the attachment. (#51562) Thanks @bobbyt74.
-- Matrix/onboarding: restore guided setup in `openclaw channels add` and `openclaw configure --section channels`, while keeping custom plugin wizards on the shared `setupWizard` seam. (#59462) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Matrix/streaming: keep live partial previews for the current assistant block while preserving completed block updates as separate messages when `channels.matrix.blockStreaming` is enabled. (#59384) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Feishu/comment threads: harden document comment-thread delivery so whole-document comments fall back to `add_comment`, delayed reply lookups retry more reliably, and user-visible replies avoid reasoning/planning spillover. (#59129) Thanks @wittam-01.
-- MS Teams/streaming: strip already-streamed text from fallback block delivery when replies exceed the 4000-character streaming limit so long responses stop duplicating content. (#59297) Thanks @bradgroux.
-- Slack/thread context: filter thread starter and history by the effective conversation allowlist without dropping valid open-room, DM, or group DM context. (#58380) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.
-- Mattermost/probes: route status probes through the SSRF guard and honor `allowPrivateNetwork` so connectivity checks stay safe for self-hosted Mattermost deployments. (#58529) Thanks @mappel-nv.
-- Zalo/webhook replay: scope replay dedupe key by chat and sender so reused message IDs across different chats or senders no longer collide, and harden metadata reads for partially missing payloads. (#58444)
-- QQBot/structured payloads: restrict local file paths to QQ Bot-owned media storage, block traversal outside that root, reduce path leakage in logs, and keep inline image data URLs working. (#58453) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.
-- Image generation/providers: route OpenAI, MiniMax, and fal image requests through the shared provider HTTP transport path so custom base URLs, guarded private-network routing, and provider request defaults stay aligned with the rest of provider HTTP. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Image generation/providers: stop inferring private-network access from configured OpenAI, MiniMax, and fal image base URLs, and cap shared HTTP error-body reads so hostile or misconfigured endpoints fail closed without relaxing SSRF policy or buffering unbounded error payloads. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Browser/host inspection: keep static Chrome inspection helpers out of the activated browser runtime so `openclaw doctor browser` and related checks do not eagerly load the bundled browser plugin. (#59471) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Browser/CDP: normalize trailing-dot localhost absolute-form hosts before loopback checks so remote CDP websocket URLs like `ws://localhost.:...` rewrite back to the configured remote host. (#59236) Thanks @mappel-nv.
-- Agents/output sanitization: strip namespaced `antml:thinking` blocks from user-visible text so Anthropic-style internal monologue tags do not leak into replies. (#59550) Thanks @obviyus.
-- Kimi Coding/tools: normalize Anthropic tool payloads into the OpenAI-compatible function shape Kimi Coding expects so tool calls stop losing required arguments. (#59440) Thanks @obviyus.
-- Image tool/paths: resolve relative local media paths against the agent `workspaceDir` instead of `process.cwd()` so inputs like `inbox/receipt.png` pass the local-path allowlist reliably. (#57222) Thanks Priyansh Gupta.
-- Podman/launch: remove noisy container output from `scripts/run-openclaw-podman.sh` and align the Podman install guidance with the quieter startup flow. (#59368) Thanks @sallyom.
-- Plugins/runtime: keep LINE reply directives and browser-backed cleanup/reset flows working even when those plugins are disabled while tightening bundled plugin activation guards. (#59412) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- ACP/gateway reconnects: keep ACP prompts alive across transient websocket drops while still failing boundedly when reconnect recovery does not complete. (#59473) Thanks @obviyus.
-- ACP/gateway reconnects: reject stale pre-ack ACP prompts after reconnect grace expiry so callers fail cleanly instead of hanging indefinitely when the gateway never confirms the run.
-- Gateway/session kill: enforce HTTP operator scopes on session kill requests and gate authorization before session lookup so unauthenticated callers cannot probe session existence. (#59128) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.
-- MS Teams/logging: format non-`Error` failures with the shared unknown-error helper so logs stop collapsing caught SDK or Axios objects into `[object Object]`. (#59321) Thanks @bradgroux.
-- Channels/setup: ignore untrusted workspace channel plugins during setup resolution so a shadowing workspace plugin cannot override built-in channel setup/login flows unless explicitly trusted in config. (#59158) Thanks @mappel-nv.
-- Exec/Windows: restore allowlist enforcement with quote-aware `argPattern` matching across gateway and node exec, and surface accurate dynamic pre-approved executable hints in the exec tool description. (#56285) Thanks @kpngr.
-- Gateway: prune empty `node-pending-work` state entries after explicit acknowledgments and natural expiry so the per-node state map no longer grows indefinitely. (#58179) Thanks @gavyngong.
-- Webhooks/secret comparison: replace ad-hoc timing-safe secret comparisons across BlueBubbles, Feishu, Mattermost, Telegram, Twilio, and Zalo webhook handlers with the shared `safeEqualSecret` helper and reject empty auth tokens in BlueBubbles. (#58432) Thanks @eleqtrizit.
-- OpenShell/mirror: constrain `remoteWorkspaceDir` and `remoteAgentWorkspaceDir` to the managed `/sandbox` and `/agent` roots, and keep mirror sync from overwriting or removing user-added shell roots during config synchronization. (#58515) Thanks @eleqtrizit.
-- Plugins/activation: preserve explicit, auto-enabled, and default activation provenance plus reason metadata across CLI, gateway bootstrap, and status surfaces so plugin enablement state stays accurate after auto-enable resolution. (#59641) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Exec/env: block additional host environment override pivots for package roots, language runtimes, compiler include paths, and credential/config locations so request-scoped exec cannot redirect trusted toolchains or config lookups. (#59233) Thanks @drobison00.
-- Dotenv/workspace overrides: block workspace `.env` files from overriding `OPENCLAW_PINNED_PYTHON` and `OPENCLAW_PINNED_WRITE_PYTHON` so trusted helper interpreters cannot be redirected by repo-local env injection. (#58473) Thanks @eleqtrizit.
-- Plugins/install: accept JSON5 syntax in `openclaw.plugin.json` and bundle `plugin.json` manifests during install/validation, so third-party plugins with trailing commas, comments, or unquoted keys no longer fail to install. (#59084) Thanks @singleGanghood.
-- Telegram/exec approvals: rewrite shared `/approve … allow-always` callback payloads to `/approve … always` before Telegram button rendering so plugin approval IDs still fit Telegram's `callback_data` limit and keep the Allow Always action visible. (#59217) Thanks @jameslcowan.
-- Cron/exec timeouts: surface timed-out `exec` and `bash` failures in isolated cron runs even when `verbose: off`, including custom session-target cron jobs, so scheduled runs stop failing silently. (#58247) Thanks @skainguyen1412.
-- Telegram/exec approvals: fall back to the origin session key for async approval followups and keep resume-failure status delivery sanitized so Telegram followups still land without leaking raw exec metadata. (#59351) Thanks @seonang.
-- Node-host/exec approvals: bind `pnpm dlx` invocations through the approval planner's mutable-script path so the effective runtime command is resolved for approval instead of being left unbound. (#58374)

-## 2026.4.2
-
-### Changes
-
-- macOS/Voice Wake: add the Voice Wake option to trigger Talk Mode. (#58490) Thanks @SmoothExec.
-- Tasks/chat: add `/tasks` as a chat-native background task board for the current session, with recent task details and agent-local fallback counts when no linked tasks are visible. Related #54226. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Web search/SearXNG: add the bundled SearXNG provider plugin for `web_search` with configurable host support. (#57317) Thanks @cgdusek.
-- Feishu/comments: add a dedicated Drive comment-event flow with comment-thread context resolution, in-thread replies, and `feishu_drive` comment actions for document collaboration workflows. (#58497) Thanks @wittam-01.
-- WhatsApp/reactions: add `reactionLevel` guidance for agent reactions. Thanks @mcaxtr.
-- Telegram/errors: add configurable `errorPolicy` and `errorCooldownMs` controls so Telegram can suppress repeated delivery errors per account, chat, and topic without muting distinct failures. (#51914) Thanks @chinar-amrutkar
-- Gateway/webchat: make `chat.history` text truncation configurable with `gateway.webchat.chatHistoryMaxChars` and per-request `maxChars`, while preserving silent-reply filtering and existing default payload limits. (#58900)
-- Amazon Bedrock/Guardrails: add Bedrock Guardrails support to the bundled provider. (#58588) Thanks @MikeORed.
-- ZAI/models: add `glm-5.1` and `glm-5v-turbo` to the bundled Z.AI provider catalog. (#58793) Thanks @tomsun28
-- Agents/default params: add `agents.defaults.params` for global default provider parameters. (#58548) Thanks @lpender.
-- Agents/failover: cap prompt-side and assistant-side same-provider auth-profile retries for rate-limit failures before cross-provider model fallback, add the `auth.cooldowns.rateLimitedProfileRotations` knob, and document the new fallback behavior. (#58707) Thanks @Forgely3D
-- Agents/compaction: resolve `agents.defaults.compaction.model` consistently for manual `/compact` and other context-engine compaction paths, so engine-owned compaction uses the configured override model across runtime entrypoints. (#56710) Thanks @oliviareid-svg
-- Cron/tools allowlist: add `openclaw cron --tools` for per-job tool allowlists. (#58504) Thanks @andyk-ms.
-- Channels/session routing: move provider-specific session conversation grammar into plugin-owned session-key surfaces, preserving Telegram topic routing and Feishu scoped inheritance across bootstrap, model override, restart, and tool-policy paths.
-
-### Fixes
-
-- Chat/error replies: stop leaking raw provider/runtime failures into external chat channels, return a friendly retry message instead, and add a specific `/new` hint for Bedrock toolResult/toolUse session mismatches. (#58831) Thanks @ImLukeF.
-- Sessions/model switching: keep `/model` changes queued behind busy runs instead of interrupting the active turn, and retarget queued followups so later work picks up the new model as soon as the current turn finishes.
-- Web UI/OpenResponses: preserve rewritten stream snapshots in webchat and keep OpenResponses final streamed text aligned when models rewind earlier output. (#58641) Thanks @neeravmakwana
-- Discord/inbound media: pass Discord attachment and sticker downloads through the shared idle-timeout and worker-abort path so slow or stuck inbound media fetches stop hanging message processing. (#58593) Thanks @aquaright1
-- Telegram/retries: keep non-idempotent sends on the strict safe-send path, retry wrapped pre-connect failures, and preserve `429` / `retry_after` backoff for safe delivery retries. (#51895) Thanks @chinar-amrutkar
-- Telegram/exec approvals: route topic-aware exec approval followups through Telegram-owned threading and approval-target parsing, so forum-topic approvals stay in the originating topic instead of falling back to the root chat. (#58783)
-- Telegram/local Bot API: preserve media MIME types for absolute-path downloads so local audio files still trigger transcription and other MIME-based handling. (#54603) Thanks @jzakirov
-- Channels/WhatsApp: pass inbound message timestamp to model context so the AI can see when WhatsApp messages were sent. (#58590) Thanks @Maninae
-- QQBot/voice: lazy-load `silk-wasm` in `audio-convert.ts` so qqbot still starts when the optional voice dependency is missing, while voice encode/decode degrades gracefully instead of crashing at module load time. (#58829) Thanks @WideLee.
-
-## 2026.4.1
-
-- Plugins/runtime: stop ambient core helper and setup paths from loading non-selected bundled plugins, keep channel-setup snapshot scoping safe for custom channel plugins, and honor env-scoped plugin auth paths. (#59136) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Matrix/multi-account: keep room-level `account` scoping, inherited room overrides, and implicit account selection consistent across top-level default auth, named accounts, and cached-credential env setups. (#58449) thanks @Daanvdplas and @gumadeiras.
-- Gateway/pairing: prefer explicit QR bootstrap auth over earlier Tailscale auth classification so iOS `/pair qr` silent bootstrap pairing does not fall through to `pairing required`. (#59232) Thanks @ngutman.
-- Config/Discord: coerce safe integer numeric Discord IDs to strings during config validation, keep unsafe or precision-losing numeric snowflakes rejected, and align `openclaw doctor` repair guidance with the same fail-closed behavior. (#45125) Thanks @moliendocode.
-- Gateway/sessions: scope bare `sessions.create` aliases like `main` to the requested agent while preserving the canonical `global` and `unknown` sentinel keys. (#58207) thanks @jalehman.
-- `/context detail` now compares the tracked prompt estimate with cached context usage and surfaces untracked provider/runtime overhead when present. (#28391) thanks @ImLukeF.
-- Gateway/session reset: emit the typed `before_reset` hook for gateway `/new` and `/reset`, preserving reset-hook behavior even when the previous transcript has already been archived. (#53872) thanks @VACInc
-- Plugins/commands: pass the active host `sessionKey` into plugin command contexts, and include `sessionId` when it is already available from the active session entry, so bundled and third-party commands can resolve the current conversation reliably. (#59044) Thanks @jalehman.
-- Agents/auth: honor `models.providers.*.authHeader` for pi embedded runner model requests by injecting `Authorization: Bearer <apiKey>` when requested. (#54390) Thanks @lndyzwdxhs.
-- UI/compaction: keep the compaction indicator in a retry-pending state until the run actually finishes, so the UI does not show `Context compacted` before compaction actually finishes. (#55132) Thanks @mpz4life.
-- Cron/tool schemas: keep cron tool schemas strict-model-friendly while still preserving `failureAlert=false`, nullable `agentId`/`sessionKey`, and flattened add/update recovery for the newly exposed cron job fields. (#55043) Thanks @brunolorente.
-- BlueBubbles/config: accept `enrichGroupParticipantsFromContacts` in the core strict config schema so gateways no longer fail validation or startup when the BlueBubbles plugin writes that field. (#56889) Thanks @zqchris.
-- Agents/failover: classify AbortError and stream-abort messages as timeout so Ollama NDJSON stream aborts stop showing `reason=unknown` in model fallback logs. (#58324) Thanks @yelog
-- Exec approvals: route Slack, Discord, and Telegram approvals through the shared channel approval-capability path so native approval auth, delivery, and `/approve` handling stay aligned across channels while preserving Telegram session-key agent filtering. (#58634) thanks @gumadeiras
-- Matrix/runtime: resolve the verification/bootstrap runtime from a distinct packaged Matrix entry so global npm installs stop failing on crypto bootstrap with missing-module or recursive runtime alias errors. (#59249) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Matrix/streaming: preserve ordered block flushes before tool, message, and agent boundaries, add explicit `channels.matrix.blockStreaming` opt-in so Matrix `streaming: "off"` stays final-only by default, and move MiniMax plain-text final handling into the MiniMax provider runtime instead of the shared core heuristic. (#59266) thanks @gumadeiras
-- Agents/compaction: resolve compaction wait before final reply/channel flush completion so slow end-of-run delivery drains no longer delay compaction completion. (#59308) thanks @gumadeiras
-- Exec approvals: align approval UX, effective-policy reporting, and `allow-always` availability with the host policy so CLI, doctor, and approval surfaces explain the real host-effective decision path. (#59283) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Config/Telegram: migrate removed `channels.telegram.groupMentionsOnly` into `channels.telegram.groups["*"].requireMention` on load so legacy configs no longer crash at startup. (#55336) thanks @jameslcowan.
-- Ollama/model picker: show only Ollama models after provider selection in the CLI picker. (#55290) Thanks @Luckymingxuan.
-- MiniMax/plugins: auto-enable the bundled MiniMax plugin for API-key auth/config so MiniMax image generation and other plugin-owned capabilities load without manual plugin allowlisting. (#57127) Thanks @tars90percent.
-- Plugins/bundled runtimes: restore externalized bundled plugin runtime dependency staging across packed installs, Docker builds, and local runtime staging so bundled plugins keep their declared runtime deps after the 2026.3.31 externalization change. (#58782)
-- LINE/runtime: resolve the packaged runtime contract from the built `dist/plugins/runtime` layout so LINE channels start correctly again after global npm installs on `2026.3.31`. (#58799) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Tasks/status: hide stale completed background tasks from `/status` and `session_status`, prefer live task context, and show recent failures only when no active work remains. (#58661) Thanks @vincentkoc
-- Tasks/gateway: keep the task registry maintenance sweep from stalling the gateway event loop under synchronous SQLite pressure, so upgraded gateways stop hanging about a minute after startup. (#58670) Thanks @openperf
-- Tasks/gateway: re-check the current task record before maintenance marks runs lost or prunes them, so a task heartbeat or cleanup update that lands during a sweep no longer gets overwritten by stale snapshot state.
-- Subagents/tasks: keep subagent completion and cleanup from crashing when task-registry writes fail, so a corrupt or missing task row no longer takes down the gateway during lifecycle finalization. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/reload: ignore startup config writes by persisted hash in the config reloader so generated auth tokens and seeded Control UI origins do not trigger a restart loop, while real `gateway.auth.*` edits still require restart. (#58678) Thanks @yelog
-- Exec/approvals: honor `exec-approvals.json` security defaults when inline or configured tool policy is unset, and keep Slack and Discord native approval handling aligned with inferred approvers and real channel enablement so remote exec stops falling into false approval timeouts and disabled states. Thanks @scoootscooob and @vincentkoc.
-- Exec/approvals: make `allow-always` persist as durable user-approved trust instead of behaving like `allow-once`, reuse exact-command trust on shell-wrapper paths that cannot safely persist an executable allowlist entry, keep static allowlist entries from silently bypassing `ask:"always"`, and require explicit approval when Windows cannot build an allowlist execution plan instead of hard-dead-ending remote exec. Thanks @scoootscooob and @vincentkoc.
-- Exec/cron: resolve isolated cron no-route approval dead-ends from the effective host fallback policy when trusted automation is allowed, and make `openclaw doctor` warn when `tools.exec` is broader than `~/.openclaw/exec-approvals.json` so stricter host-policy conflicts are explicit. Thanks @scoootscooob and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/HTTP: skip failing HTTP request stages so one broken facade no longer forces every HTTP endpoint to return 500. (#58746) Thanks @yelog
-- Gateway/nodes: stop pinning live node commands to the approved node-pair record. Node pairing remains a trust/token flow, while per-node `system.run` policy stays in that node's exec approvals config. Fixes #58824.
-- WebChat/exec approvals: use native approval UI guidance in agent system prompts instead of telling agents to paste manual `/approve` commands in webchat sessions. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Channels/QQ Bot: keep `/bot-logs` export gated behind a truly explicit QQBot allowlist, rejecting wildcard and mixed wildcard entries while preserving the real framework command path. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Channels/plugins: keep bundled channel plugins loadable from legacy `channels.<id>` config even under restrictive plugin allowlists, and make `openclaw doctor` warn only on real plugin blockers instead of misleading setup guidance. (#58873) Thanks @obviyus
-- CDP/profiles: prefer `cdpPort` over stale WebSocket URLs so browser automation reconnects cleanly. (#58499) Thanks @Mlightsnow.
-- Media/paths: resolve relative `MEDIA` paths against the agent workspace so local attachment references keep working. (#58624) Thanks @aquaright1.
-- Memory/session indexing: keep full reindexes from skipping session transcripts when sync is triggered by `session-start` or `watch`, so restart-driven reindexes preserve session memory. (#39732) Thanks @upupc
-- Memory/QMD: prefer `--mask` over `--glob` when creating QMD collections so default memory collections keep their intended patterns and stop colliding on restart. (#58643) Thanks @GitZhangChi.
-- Sandbox/browser: compare browser runtime inspection against `agents.defaults.sandbox.browser.image` so `openclaw sandbox list --browser` stops reporting healthy browser containers as image mismatches. (#58759) Thanks @sandpile.
-- Plugins/install: forward `--dangerously-force-unsafe-install` through archive and npm-spec plugin installs so the documented override reaches the security scanner on those install paths. (#58879) Thanks @ryanlee-gemini.
-- Auto-reply/commands: strip inbound metadata before slash command detection so wrapped `/model`, `/new`, and `/status` commands are recognized. (#58725) Thanks @Mlightsnow.
-- Agents/Anthropic: preserve thinking blocks and signatures across replay, cache-control patching, and context pruning so compacted Anthropic sessions continue working instead of failing on later turns. (#58916) Thanks @obviyus
-- Agents/Anthropic: recover cleanly after a crash leaves the latest assistant turn with incomplete thinking blocks, dropping or retrying the corrupted turn instead of getting stuck on later Anthropic requests. Thanks @explainanalyze. Maintainer refresh: vincentkoc.
-- Agents/failover: unify structured and raw provider error classification so provider-specific `400`/`422` payloads no longer get forced into generic format failures before retry, billing, or compaction logic can inspect them. (#58856) Thanks @aaron-he-zhu.
-- Auth profiles/store: coerce misplaced SecretRef objects out of plaintext `key` and `token` fields during store load so agents without ACP runtime stop crashing on `.trim()` after upgrade. (#58923) Thanks @openperf.
-- ACPX/runtime: repair `queue owner unavailable` session recovery by replacing dead named sessions and resuming the backend session when ACPX exposes a stable session id, so the first ACP prompt no longer inherits a dead handle. (#58669) Thanks @neeravmakwana
-- ACPX/runtime: retry dead-session queue-owner repair without `--resume-session` when the reported ACPX session id is stale, so recovery still creates a fresh named session instead of failing session init. Thanks @obviyus.
-- Auth/OpenAI Codex: persist plugin-refreshed OAuth credentials to `auth-profiles.json` before returning them, so rotated Codex refresh tokens survive restart and stop falling into `refresh_token_reused` loops. (#53082)
-- Agents/Anthropic: honor explicit `cacheRetention` for custom providers using `anthropic-messages`, so Anthropic-compatible proxy providers can reuse prompt caching when they opt in. (#59049) Thanks @wwerst and @vincentkoc.
-- Discord/gateway: hand reconnect ownership back to Carbon, keep runtime status aligned with close/reconnect state, and force-stop sockets that open without reaching READY so Discord monitors recover promptly instead of waiting on stale health timeouts. (#59019) Thanks @obviyus
-- Control UI/build: stop `pnpm ui:build` from reinstalling the UI with production-only dependencies, so fresh self-healing UI builds keep `vite` available instead of failing before asset generation. (#59267) Thanks @juliabush.

-## 2026.3.31
-
 ### Breaking
 
 - Nodes/exec: remove the duplicated `nodes.run` shell wrapper from the CLI and agent `nodes` tool so node shell execution always goes through `exec host=node`, keeping node-specific capabilities on `nodes invoke` and the dedicated media/location/notify actions.
-- Plugin SDK: deprecate the legacy provider compat subpaths plus the older bundled provider setup and channel-runtime compatibility shims, emit migration warnings, and keep the current documented `openclaw/plugin-sdk/*` entrypoints plus local `api.ts` / `runtime-api.ts` barrels as the forward path ahead of a future major-release removal.
-- Skills/install and Plugins/install: built-in dangerous-code `critical` findings and install-time scan failures now fail closed by default, so plugin installs and gateway-backed skill dependency installs that previously succeeded may now require an explicit dangerous override such as `--dangerously-force-unsafe-install` to proceed.
-- Gateway/auth: `trusted-proxy` now rejects mixed shared-token configs, and local-direct fallback requires the configured token instead of implicitly authenticating same-host callers. Thanks @zhangning-agent, @jacobtomlinson, and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/node commands: node commands now stay disabled until node pairing is approved, so device pairing alone is no longer enough to expose declared node commands. (#57777) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.
-- Gateway/node events: node-originated runs now stay on a reduced trusted surface, so notification-driven or node-triggered flows that previously relied on broader host/session tool access may need adjustment. (#57691) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.
+- Background tasks: replace the old JSON task ledger with the SQLite-backed task store, so undocumented tooling or scripts that read `tasks/runs.json` directly must switch to the supported `openclaw tasks` surfaces instead of depending on state-dir internals. Thanks @vincentkoc and @mbelinky.
 
 ### Changes
 
+- LINE/outbound media: add LINE image, video, and audio outbound sends on the LINE-specific delivery path, including explicit preview/tracking handling for videos while keeping generic media sends on the existing image-only route. (#45826) Thanks @masatohoshino.
+- WhatsApp/reactions: agents can now react with emoji on incoming WhatsApp messages, enabling more natural conversational interactions like acknowledging a photo with ❤️ instead of typing a reply. Thanks @mcaxtr.
+- MCP: add remote HTTP/SSE server support for `mcp.servers` URL configs, including auth headers and safer config redaction for MCP credentials. (#50396) Thanks @dhananjai1729.
+- Agents/MCP: materialize bundle MCP tools with provider-safe names (`serverName__toolName`), support optional `streamable-http` transport selection plus per-server connection timeouts, and preserve real tool results from aborted/error turns unless truncation explicitly drops them. (#49505) Thanks @ziomancer.
+- Plugins/hooks: add a `before_install` hook with structured request provenance, built-in scan status, and install-target metadata so external security scanners and policy engines can review and block skill, plugin package, plugin bundle, and single-file plugin installs. (#56050) thanks @odysseus0.
 - ACP/plugins: add an explicit default-off ACPX plugin-tools MCP bridge config, document the trust boundary, and harden the built-in bridge packaging/logging path so global installs and stdio MCP sessions work reliably. (#56867) Thanks @joe2643.
 - Agents/LLM: add a configurable idle-stream timeout for embedded runner requests so stalled model streams abort cleanly instead of hanging until the broader run timeout fires. (#55072) Thanks @liuy.
-- Docs/plugins: update the community wecom and qqbot plugin listing to the docs catalog. (#57641) Thanks @sliverp.
-- Agents/MCP: materialize bundle MCP tools with provider-safe names (`serverName__toolName`), support optional `streamable-http` transport selection plus per-server connection timeouts, and preserve real tool results from aborted/error turns unless truncation explicitly drops them. (#49505) Thanks @ziomancer.
-- Android/notifications: add notification-forwarding controls with package filtering, quiet hours, rate limiting, and safer picker behavior for forwarded notification events. (#40175) Thanks @nimbleenigma.
-- Background tasks: turn tasks into a real shared background-run control plane instead of ACP-only bookkeeping by unifying ACP, subagent, cron, and background CLI execution under one SQLite-backed ledger, routing detached lifecycle updates through the executor seam, adding audit/maintenance/status visibility, tightening auto-cleanup and lost-run recovery, improving task awareness in internal status/tool surfaces, and clarifying the split between heartbeat/main-session automation and detached scheduled runs. Thanks @mbelinky and @vincentkoc.
-- Background tasks: add the first linear task flow control surface with `openclaw tasks list|show|cancel`, keep manual multi-task flows separate from one-task auto-sync flows, and surface doctor recovery hints for obviously orphaned or broken flow/task linkage. Thanks @mbelinky and @vincentkoc.
-- Channels/QQ Bot: add QQ Bot as a bundled channel plugin with multi-account setup, SecretRef-aware credentials, slash commands, reminders, and media send/receive support. (#52986) Thanks @sliverp.
-- Diffs: skip unused viewer-versus-file SSR preload work so `diffs` view-only and file-only runs do less render work while keeping mode outputs aligned. (#57909) thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Tasks: add a minimal SQLite-backed task flow registry plus task-to-flow linkage scaffolding, so orchestrated work can start gaining a first-class parent record without changing current task delivery behavior. Thanks @mbelinky and @vincentkoc.
-- Tasks: persist blocked state on one-task task flows and let the same flow reopen cleanly on retry, so blocked detached work can carry a parent-level reason and continue without fragmenting into a new job. Thanks @mbelinky and @vincentkoc.
-- Tasks: route one-task ACP and subagent updates through a parent task-flow owner context, so detached work can emerge back through the intended parent thread/session instead of speaking only as a raw child task. Thanks @mbelinky and @vincentkoc.
-- LINE/outbound media: add LINE image, video, and audio outbound sends on the LINE-specific delivery path, including explicit preview/tracking handling for videos while keeping generic media sends on the existing image-only route. (#45826) Thanks @masatohoshino.
-- Matrix/history: add optional room history context for Matrix group triggers via `channels.matrix.historyLimit`, with per-agent watermarks and retry-safe snapshots so failed trigger retries do not drift into newer room messages. (#57022) thanks @chain710.
-- Matrix/network: add explicit `channels.matrix.proxy` config for routing Matrix traffic through an HTTP(S) proxy, including account-level overrides and matching probe/runtime behavior. (#56931) thanks @patrick-yingxi-pan.
-- Matrix/streaming: add draft streaming so partial Matrix replies update the same message in place instead of sending a new message for each chunk. (#56387) Thanks @jrusz.
-- Matrix/threads: add per-DM `threadReplies` overrides and keep thread session isolation aligned with the effective room or DM thread policy from the triggering message onward. (#57995) thanks @teconomix.
-- MCP: add remote HTTP/SSE server support for `mcp.servers` URL configs, including auth headers and safer config redaction for MCP credentials. (#50396) Thanks @dhananjai1729.
-- Memory/QMD: add per-agent `memorySearch.qmd.extraCollections` so agents can opt into cross-agent session search without flattening every transcript collection into one shared QMD namespace. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Microsoft Teams/member info: add a Graph-backed member info action so Teams automations and tools can resolve channel member details directly from Microsoft Graph. (#57528) Thanks @sudie-codes.
-- Nostr/inbound DMs: verify inbound event signatures before pairing or sender-authorization side effects, so forged DM events no longer create pairing requests or trigger reply attempts. Thanks @smaeljaish771 and @vincentkoc.
 - OpenAI/Responses: forward configured `text.verbosity` across Responses HTTP and WebSocket transports, surface it in `/status`, and keep per-agent verbosity precedence aligned with runtime behavior. (#47106) Thanks @merc1305 and @vincentkoc.
-- Pi/Codex: add native Codex web search support for embedded Pi runs, including config/docs/wizard coverage and managed-tool suppression when native Codex search is active. (#46579) Thanks @Evizero.
-- Slack/exec approvals: add native Slack approval routing and approver authorization so exec approval prompts can stay in Slack instead of falling back to the Web UI or terminal. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- TTS: Add structured provider diagnostics and fallback attempt analytics. (#57954) Thanks @joshavant.
-- WhatsApp/reactions: agents can now react with emoji on incoming WhatsApp messages, enabling more natural conversational interactions like acknowledging a photo with ❤️ instead of typing a reply. Thanks @mcaxtr.
-- Agents/BTW: force `/btw` side questions to disable provider reasoning so Anthropic adaptive-thinking sessions stop failing with `No BTW response generated`. Fixes #55376. Thanks @Catteres and @vincentkoc.
-- CLI/onboarding: reset the remote gateway URL prompt to the safe loopback default after declining a discovered endpoint, so onboarding does not keep a previously rejected remote URL. (#57828)
-- Agents/exec defaults: honor per-agent `tools.exec` defaults when no inline directive or session override is present, so configured exec host, security, ask, and node settings actually apply. (#57689)
-- Sandbox/networking: sanitize SSH subprocess env vars through the shared sandbox policy and route marketplace archive downloads plus Ollama discovery, auth, and pull requests through the guarded fetch path so sandboxed execution and remote fetches follow the repo's trust boundaries. (#57848, #57850)
+- Android/notifications: add notification-forwarding controls with package filtering, quiet hours, rate limiting, and safer picker behavior for forwarded notification events. (#40175) Thanks @nimbleenigma.
+- Matrix/network: add explicit `channels.matrix.proxy` config for routing Matrix traffic through an HTTP(S) proxy, including account-level overrides and matching probe/runtime behavior. (#56931) thanks @patrick-yingxi-pan.
+- Background tasks: turn tasks into a real shared background-run control plane instead of ACP-only bookkeeping by unifying ACP, subagent, cron, and background CLI execution under one SQLite-backed ledger, routing detached lifecycle updates through the executor seam, adding audit/maintenance/status visibility, tightening auto-cleanup and lost-run recovery, improving task awareness in internal status/tool surfaces, and clarifying the split between heartbeat/main-session automation and detached scheduled runs. Thanks @vincentkoc and @mbelinky.
 
 ### Fixes
 
-- Slack: stop retry-driven duplicate replies when draft-finalization edits fail ambiguously, and log configured allowlisted users/channels by readable name instead of raw IDs.
-- Agents/OpenAI Responses: normalize raw bundled MCP tool schemas on the WebSocket/Responses path so bare-object, object-ish, and top-level union MCP tools no longer get rejected by OpenAI during tool registration. (#58299) Thanks @yelog.
-- ACP/security: replace ACP's dangerous-tool name override with semantic approval classes, so only narrow readonly reads/searches can auto-approve while indirect exec-capable and control-plane tools always require explicit prompt approval. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- ACP: derive owner-only approval classes from the shared tool-policy fallback map so `cron`, `nodes`, and `whatsapp_login` cannot drift out of prompt-required coverage.
+- Image generation/build: write stable runtime alias files into `dist/` and route provider-auth runtime lookups through those aliases so image-generation providers keep resolving auth/runtime modules after rebuilds instead of crashing on missing hashed chunk files.
+- Config/runtime: pin the first successful config load in memory for the running process and refresh that snapshot on successful writes/reloads, so hot paths stop reparsing `openclaw.json` between watcher-driven swaps.
+- Config/legacy cleanup: stop probing obsolete alternate legacy config names and service labels during local config/service detection, while keeping the active `~/.openclaw/openclaw.json` path canonical.
 - ACP/sessions_spawn: register ACP child runs for completion tracking and lifecycle cleanup, and make registration-failure cleanup explicitly best-effort so callers do not assume an already-started ACP turn was fully aborted. (#40885) Thanks @xaeon2026 and @vincentkoc.
 - ACP/tasks: mark cleanly exited ACP runs as blocked when they end on deterministic write or authorization blockers, and wake the parent session with a follow-up instead of falsely reporting success.
 - ACPX/runtime: derive the bundled ACPX expected version from the extension package metadata instead of hardcoding a separate literal, so plugin-local ACPX installs stop drifting out of health-check parity after version bumps. (#49089) Thanks @jiejiesks and @vincentkoc.
-- Agents/Anthropic failover: treat Anthropic `api_error` payloads with `An unexpected error occurred while processing the response` as transient so retry/fallback can engage instead of surfacing a terminal failure. (#57441) Thanks @zijiess and @vincentkoc.
-- Agents/compaction: keep late compaction-retry completions from double-resolving finished compaction futures, so interrupted or timed-out compactions stop surfacing spurious second-completion races. (#57796) Thanks @joshavant.
-- Agents/disabled providers: make disabled providers disappear from default model selection and embedded provider fallback, while letting explicitly pinned disabled providers fail with a clear config error instead of silently taking traffic. (#57735) Thanks @rileybrown-dev and @vincentkoc.
-- Agents/OAuth output: force exec-host OAuth output readers through the gateway fs policy so embedded gateway runs stop crashing when provider auth writes land outside the current sandbox workspace. (#58249) Thanks @joshavant.
-- Agents/system prompt: fix `agent.name` interpolation in the embedded runtime system prompt and make provider/model fallback text reflect the effective runtime selection after start. (#57625) Thanks @StllrSvr and @vincentkoc.
-- Android/device info: read the app's version metadata from the package manager instead of hidden APIs so Android 15+ onboarding and device info no longer fail to compile or report placeholder values. (#58126) Thanks @L3ER0Y.
-- Android/pairing: stop appending duplicate push receiver entries to `gateway-service.conf` on repeated QR pairing and keep push registration bounded to the current successful pairing, so Android push delivery stays healthy across re-pair and token rotation. (#58256) Thanks @surrealroad.
-- App install smoke: pin the latest-release lookup to `latest`, cache the first stable install version across the rerun, and relax prerelease package assertions so the Parallels smoke lane can validate stable-to-main upgrades even when `beta` moves ahead or the guest starts from an older stable. (#58177) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Auth/profiles: keep the last successful config load in memory for the running process and refresh that snapshot on successful writes/reloads, so hot paths stop reparsing `openclaw.json` between watcher-driven swaps.
-- Config/SecretRef + Control UI: harden SecretRef redaction round-trip restore, block unsafe raw fallback (force Form mode when raw is unavailable), and preflight submitted-config SecretRefs before config write RPC persistence. (#58044) Thanks @joshavant.
-- Config/update: stop `openclaw doctor` write-backs from persisting plugin-injected channel defaults, so `openclaw update` no longer seeds config keys that later break service refresh validation. (#56834) Thanks @openperf.
-- Control UI/agents: auto-load agent workspace files on initial Files panel open, and populate overview model/workspace/fallbacks from effective runtime agent metadata so defaulted models no longer show as `Not set`. (#56637) Thanks @dxsx84.
-- Control UI/slash commands: make `/steer` and `/redirect` work from the chat command palette with visible pending state for active-run `/steer`, correct redirected-run tracking, and a single canonical `/steer` entry in the command menu. (#54625) Thanks @fuller-stack-dev.
-- Cron/announce: preserve all deliverable text payloads for announce mode instead of collapsing to the last chunk, so multi-line cron reports deliver in full to Telegram forum topics.
-- Cron/isolated sessions: carry the full live-session provider, model, and auth-profile selection across retry restarts so cron jobs with model overrides no longer fail or loop on mid-run model-switch requests. (#57972) Thanks @issaba1.
-- Diffs/config: preserve schema-shaped plugin config parsing from `diffsPluginConfigSchema.safeParse()`, so direct callers keep `defaults` and `security` sections instead of receiving flattened tool defaults. (#57904) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Diffs: fall back to plain text when `lang` hints are invalid during diff render and viewer hydration, so bad or stale language values no longer break the diff viewer. (#57902) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Discord/voice: enforce the same guild channel and member allowlist checks on spoken voice ingress before transcription, so joined voice channels no longer accept speech from users outside the configured Discord access policy. Thanks @cyjhhh and @vincentkoc.
-- Docker/setup: force BuildKit for local image builds (including sandbox image builds) so `./docker-setup.sh` no longer fails on `RUN --mount=...` when hosts default to Docker's legacy builder. (#56681) Thanks @zhanghui-china.
-- Docs/anchors: fix broken English docs links and make Mint anchor audits run against the English-source docs tree. (#57039) thanks @velvet-shark.
-- Doctor/plugins: skip false Matrix legacy-helper warnings when no migration plans exist, and keep bundled `enabledByDefault` plugins in the gateway startup set. (#57931) Thanks @dinakars777.
-- Exec approvals/macOS: unwrap `arch` and `xcrun` before deriving shell payloads and allow-always patterns, so wrapper approvals stay bound to the carried command instead of the outer carrier. Thanks @tdjackey and @vincentkoc.
-- Exec approvals: unwrap `caffeinate` and `sandbox-exec` before persisting allow-always trust so later shell payload changes still require a fresh approval. Thanks @tdjackey and @vincentkoc.
-- Exec/approvals: infer Discord and Telegram exec approvers from existing owner config when `execApprovals.approvers` is unset, extend the default approval window to 30 minutes, and clarify approval-unavailable guidance so approvals do not appear to silently disappear.
-- Pi/TUI: flush message-boundary replies at `message_end` so turns stop looking stuck until the next nudge when the final reply was already ready. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Status/tasks: fall back to same-agent task counts in `/status` when the current session has no linked tasks, keeping the default view useful without exposing other sessions' task details. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Status/auto-reply: stop status-only turns from replying twice when inline `/status` handling already produced the reply, so Discord and other chat surfaces no longer emit duplicate status cards. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Exec/approvals: keep `awk` and `sed` family binaries out of the low-risk `safeBins` fast path, and stop doctor profile scaffolding from treating them like ordinary custom filters. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Exec/env: block proxy, TLS, and Docker endpoint env overrides in host execution so request-scoped commands cannot silently reroute outbound traffic or trust attacker-supplied certificate settings. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab.
-- Exec/env: block Python package index override variables from request-scoped host exec environment sanitization so package fetches cannot be redirected through a caller-supplied index. Thanks @nexrin and @vincentkoc.
-- Exec/node: stop gateway-side workdir fallback from rewriting explicit `host=node` cwd values to the gateway filesystem, so remote node exec approval and runs keep using the intended node-local directory. (#50961) Thanks @openperf.
-- Exec/runtime: default implicit exec to `host=auto`, resolve that target to sandbox only when a sandbox runtime exists, keep explicit `host=sandbox` fail-closed without sandbox, and show `/exec` effective host state in runtime status/docs.
-- Exec: fail closed when the implicit sandbox host has no sandbox runtime, and stop denied async approval followups from reusing prior command output from the same session. (#56800) Thanks @scoootscooob.
-- Feishu/groups: keep quoted replies and topic bootstrap context aligned with group sender allowlists so only allowlisted thread messages seed agent context. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/attachments: offload large inbound images without leaking `media://` markers into text-only runs, preserve mixed attachment order for model input/transcripts, and fail closed when model image capability cannot be resolved. (#55513) Thanks @Syysean.
-- Gateway/auth: keep shared-auth rate limiting active during WebSocket handshake attempts even when callers also send device-token candidates, so bogus device-token fields no longer suppress shared-secret brute-force tracking. Thanks @kexinoh and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/auth: reject mismatched browser `Origin` headers on trusted-proxy HTTP operator requests while keeping origin-less headless proxy clients working. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/device tokens: disconnect active device sessions after token rotation so newly rotated credentials revoke existing live connections immediately instead of waiting for those sockets to close naturally. Thanks @zsxsoft and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/health: carry webhook-vs-polling account mode from channel descriptors into runtime snapshots so passive channels like LINE and BlueBubbles skip false stale-socket health failures. (#47488) Thanks @karesansui-u.
-- Gateway/pairing: restore QR bootstrap onboarding handoff so fresh `/pair qr` iPhone setup can auto-approve the initial node pairing, receive a reusable node device token, and stop retrying with spent bootstrap auth. (#58382) Thanks @ngutman.
-- Gateway/OpenAI compatibility: accept flat Responses API function tool definitions on `/v1/responses` and preserve `strict` when normalizing hosted tools into the embedded runner, so spec-compliant clients like Codex no longer fail validation or silently lose strict tool enforcement. Thanks @malaiwah and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/OpenAI HTTP: restore default operator scopes for bearer-authenticated requests that omit `x-openclaw-scopes`, so headless `/v1/chat/completions` and session-history callers work again after the recent method-scope hardening. (#57596) Thanks @openperf.
-- Gateway/plugins: scope plugin-auth HTTP route runtime clients to read-only access and keep gateway-authenticated plugin routes on write scope, so plugin-owned webhook handlers do not inherit write-capable runtime access by default. Thanks @davidluzsilva and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/SecretRef: resolve restart token drift checks with merged service/runtime env sources and hard-fail unsupported mutable SecretRef plus OAuth-profile combinations so restart warnings and policy enforcement match runtime behavior. (#58141) Thanks @joshavant.
-- Gateway/tools HTTP: tighten HTTP tool-invoke authorization so owner-only tools stay off HTTP invoke paths. (#57773) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.
-- Harden async approval followup delivery in webchat-only sessions (#57359) Thanks @joshavant.
-- Heartbeat/auth: prevent exec-event heartbeat runs from inheriting owner-only tool access from the session delivery target, so node exec output stays on the non-owner tool surface even when the target session belongs to the owner. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab and @vincentkoc.
-- Hooks/config: accept runtime channel plugin ids in `hooks.mappings[].channel` (for example `feishu`) instead of rejecting non-core channels during config validation. (#56226) Thanks @AiKrai001.
-- Hooks/session routing: rebind hook-triggered `agent:` session keys to the actual target agent before isolated dispatch so dedicated hook agents keep their own session-scoped tool and plugin identity. Thanks @kexinoh and @vincentkoc.
-- Host exec/env: block additional request-scoped env overrides that can redirect Docker endpoints, trust roots, compiler include paths, package resolution, or Python environment roots during approved host runs. Thanks @tdjackey and @vincentkoc.
-- Image generation/build: write stable runtime alias files into `dist/` and route provider-auth runtime lookups through those aliases so image-generation providers keep resolving auth/runtime modules after rebuilds instead of crashing on missing hashed chunk files.
-- iOS/Live Activities: mark the `ActivityKit` import in `LiveActivityManager.swift` as `@preconcurrency` so Xcode 26.4 / Swift 6 builds stop failing on strict concurrency checks. (#57180) Thanks @ngutman.
+- Gateway/auth: make local-direct `trusted-proxy` fallback require the configured shared token instead of silently authenticating same-host callers, while keeping same-host reverse proxy identity-header flows on the normal trusted-proxy path. Thanks @zhangning-agent and @vincentkoc.
+- Memory/QMD: send MCP `query` collection filters as the upstream `collections` array instead of the legacy singular `collection` field, so mcporter-backed QMD 1.1+ searches still scope correctly after the unified `query` tool migration. (#54728) Thanks @armanddp and @vincentkoc.
+- Memory/QMD: keep `qmd embed` active in `search` mode too, so BM25-first setups still build a complete index for later vector and hybrid retrieval. (#54509) Thanks @hnshah and @vincentkoc.
+- Memory/QMD: point `QMD_CONFIG_DIR` at the nested `xdg-config/qmd` directory so per-agent collection config resolves correctly. (#39078) Thanks @smart-tinker and @vincentkoc.
+- Memory/QMD: include deduplicated default plus per-agent `memorySearch.extraPaths` when building QMD custom collections, so shared and agent-specific extra roots both get indexed consistently. (#57315) Thanks @Vitalcheffe and @vincentkoc.
+- Memory/session indexer: include `.jsonl.reset.*` and `.jsonl.deleted.*` transcripts in the memory host session scan while still excluding `.jsonl.bak.*` compaction backups and lock files, so memory search sees archived session history without duplicating stale snapshots. Thanks @hclsys and @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/sandbox: honor `tools.sandbox.tools.alsoAllow`, let explicit sandbox re-allows remove matching built-in default-deny tools, and keep sandbox explain/error guidance aligned with the effective sandbox tool policy. (#54492) Thanks @ngutman.
 - LINE/ACP: add current-conversation binding and inbound binding-routing parity so `/acp spawn ... --thread here`, configured ACP bindings, and active conversation-bound ACP sessions work on LINE like the other conversation channels.
 - LINE/markdown: preserve underscores inside Latin, Cyrillic, and CJK words when stripping markdown, while still removing standalone `_italic_` markers on the shared text-runtime path used by LINE and TTS. (#47465) Thanks @jackjin1997.
-- Agents/failover: make overloaded same-provider retry count and retry delay configurable via `auth.cooldowns`, default to one retry with no delay, and document the model-fallback behavior.
-- Ollama/model picker: include configured Ollama models in the opted-in non-PI-native model catalog path so Ollama onboarding shows available models directly after provider selection. (#55290) Thanks @Luckymingxuan.

-## 2026.3.31-beta.1
-
-### Breaking
-
-- Nodes/exec: remove the duplicated `nodes.run` shell wrapper from the CLI and agent `nodes` tool so node shell execution always goes through `exec host=node`, keeping node-specific capabilities on `nodes invoke` and the dedicated media/location/notify actions.
-- Plugin SDK: deprecate the legacy provider compat subpaths plus the older bundled provider setup and channel-runtime compatibility shims, emit migration warnings, and keep the current documented `openclaw/plugin-sdk/*` entrypoints plus local `api.ts` / `runtime-api.ts` barrels as the forward path ahead of a future major-release removal.
-- Skills/install and Plugins/install: built-in dangerous-code `critical` findings and install-time scan failures now fail closed by default, so plugin installs and gateway-backed skill dependency installs that previously succeeded may now require an explicit dangerous override such as `--dangerously-force-unsafe-install` to proceed.
-- Gateway/auth: `trusted-proxy` now rejects mixed shared-token configs, and local-direct fallback requires the configured token instead of implicitly authenticating same-host callers. Thanks @zhangning-agent, @jacobtomlinson, and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/node commands: node commands now stay disabled until node pairing is approved, so device pairing alone is no longer enough to expose declared node commands. (#57777) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.
-- Gateway/node events: node-originated runs now stay on a reduced trusted surface, so notification-driven or node-triggered flows that previously relied on broader host/session tool access may need adjustment. (#57691) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.
-
-### Changes
-
-- ACP/plugins: add an explicit default-off ACPX plugin-tools MCP bridge config, document the trust boundary, and harden the built-in bridge packaging/logging path so global installs and stdio MCP sessions work reliably. (#56867) Thanks @joe2643.
-- Agents/LLM: add a configurable idle-stream timeout for embedded runner requests so stalled model streams abort cleanly instead of hanging until the broader run timeout fires. (#55072) Thanks @liuy.
-- Agents/MCP: materialize bundle MCP tools with provider-safe names (`serverName__toolName`), support optional `streamable-http` transport selection plus per-server connection timeouts, and preserve real tool results from aborted/error turns unless truncation explicitly drops them.

-- Agents/compaction: keep late compaction-retry rejections handled after the aggregate timeout path wins without swallowing real pre-timeout wait failures, so timed-out retries no longer surface an unhandled rejection on later unsubscribe. (#57451) Thanks @mpz4life and @vincentkoc.
+- TTS/Microsoft: auto-switch the default Edge voice to Chinese for CJK-dominant text without overriding explicitly selected Microsoft voices. (#52355) Thanks @extrasmall0.
 - Agents/context pruning: count supplementary-plane CJK characters with the shared code-point-aware estimator so context pruning stops underestimating Japanese and Chinese text that uses Extension B ideographs. (#39985) Thanks @Edward-Qiang-2024.
-- Agents/Kimi: preserve already-valid Anthropic-compatible tool call argument objects while still clearing cached repairs when later trailing junk exceeds the repair allowance. (#54491) Thanks @yuanaichi.
-- Agents/MCP: dispose bundled MCP runtimes after one-shot `openclaw agent --local` runs finish, while preserving bundled MCP state across in-run retries so local JSON runs exit cleanly without restarting stateful MCP tools mid-run.
+- Slack/status reactions: add a reaction lifecycle for queued, thinking, tool, done, and error phases in Slack monitors, with safer cleanup so queued ack reactions stay correct across silent runs, pre-reply failures, and delayed transitions. (#56430) Thanks @hsiaoa.
+- macOS/local gateway: stop OpenClaw.app from killing healthy local gateway listeners after startup by recognizing the current `openclaw-gateway` process title and using the current `openclaw gateway` launch shape.
+- Gateway/OpenAI compatibility: accept flat Responses API function tool definitions on `/v1/responses` and preserve `strict` when normalizing hosted tools into the embedded runner, so spec-compliant clients like Codex no longer fail validation or silently lose strict tool enforcement.

+- Memory/QMD: resolve slugified `memory_search` file hints back to the indexed filesystem path before returning search hits, so `memory_get` works again for mixed-case and spaced paths. (#50313) Thanks @erra9x.
+- OpenAI/Codex fast mode: map `/fast` to priority processing on native OpenAI and Codex Responses endpoints instead of rewriting reasoning settings, and document the exact endpoint and override behavior.
+- Memory/QMD: weight CJK-heavy text correctly when estimating chunk sizes, preserve surrogate-pair characters during fine splits, and keep long Latin lines on the old chunk boundaries so memory indexing produces better-sized chunks for CJK notes. (#40271) Thanks @AaronLuo00.
+- Security/LINE: make webhook signature validation run the timing-safe compare even when the supplied signature length is wrong, closing a small timing side-channel. (#55663) Thanks @gavyngong.
+- LINE/status: stop `openclaw status` from warning about missing credentials when sanitized LINE snapshots are already configured, while still surfacing whether the missing field is the token or secret. (#45701) Thanks @tamaosamu.
+- Gateway/health: carry webhook-vs-polling account mode from channel descriptors into runtime snapshots so passive channels like LINE and BlueBubbles skip false stale-socket health failures. (#47488) Thanks @karesansui-u.
 - Agents/MCP: reuse bundled MCP runtimes across turns in the same session, while recreating them when MCP config changes and disposing stale runtimes cleanly on session rollover. (#55090) Thanks @allan0509.
+- Memory/QMD: honor `memory.qmd.update.embedInterval` even when regular QMD update cadence is disabled or slower by arming a dedicated embed-cadence maintenance timer, while avoiding redundant timers when regular updates are already frequent enough. (#37326) Thanks @barronlroth.
+- Memory/QMD: add `memory.qmd.searchTool` as an exact mcporter tool override, so custom QMD MCP tools such as `hybrid_search` can be used without weakening the validated `searchMode` config surface. (#27801) Thanks @keramblock.
+- Memory/QMD: keep reset and deleted session transcripts in QMD session export so daily session resets do not silently drop most historical recall from `memory_search`. (#30220) Thanks @pushkarsingh32.
+- Memory/QMD: rebind collections when QMD reports a changed pattern but omits path metadata, so config pattern changes stop being silently ignored on restart. (#49897) Thanks @Madruru.
+- Memory/QMD: warn explicitly when `memory.backend=qmd` is configured but the `qmd` binary is missing, so doctor and runtime fallback no longer fail as a silent builtin downgrade. (#50439) Thanks @Jimmy-xuzimo and @vincentkoc.
+- Memory/QMD: pass a direct-session key on `openclaw memory search` so CLI QMD searches no longer get denied as `session=<none>` under direct-only scope defaults. (#43517) Thanks @waynecc-at and @vincentkoc.
+- Memory/QMD: keep `memory_search` session-hit paths roundtrip-safe when exported session markdown lives under the workspace `qmd/` directory, so `memory_get` can read the exact returned path instead of failing on the generic `qmd/sessions/...` alias. (#43519) Thanks @holgergruenhagen and @vincentkoc.
 - Agents/memory flush: keep daily memory flush files append-only during embedded attempts so compaction writes do not overwrite earlier notes. (#53725) Thanks @HPluseven.
-- Agents/sandbox: honor `tools.sandbox.tools.alsoAllow`, let explicit sandbox re-allows remove matching built-in default-deny tools, and keep sandbox explain/error guidance aligned with the effective sandbox tool policy. (#54492) Thanks @ngutman.
-- Agents/sandbox: make remote FS bridge reads pin the parent path and open the file atomically in the helper so read access cannot race path resolution. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab and @vincentkoc.
+- Web UI/markdown: stop bare auto-links from swallowing adjacent CJK text while preserving valid mixed-script path and query characters in rendered links. (#48410) Thanks @jnuyao.
+- BlueBubbles/iMessage: coalesce URL-only inbound messages with their link-preview balloon again so sharing a bare link no longer drops the URL from agent context. Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Sandbox/browser: install `fonts-noto-cjk` in the sandbox browser image so screenshots render Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text correctly instead of tofu boxes. Fixes #35597. Thanks @carrotRakko and @vincentkoc.
+- Memory/FTS: add configurable trigram tokenization plus short-CJK substring fallback so memory search can find Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text without breaking mixed long-and-short queries. Thanks @carrotRakko.
+- Hooks/config: accept runtime channel plugin ids in `hooks.mappings[].channel` (for example `feishu`) instead of rejecting non-core channels during config validation. (#56226) Thanks @AiKrai001.
+- TUI/chat: keep optimistic outbound user messages visible during active runs by deferring local-run binding until the first gateway chat event reveals the real run id, preventing premature history reloads from wiping pending local sends. (#54722) Thanks @seanturner001.
+- TUI/model picker: keep searchable `/model` and `/models` input mode from hijacking `j`/`k` as navigation keys, and harden width bounds under `m`-filtered model lists so search no longer crashes on long rows. (#30156) Thanks @briannicholls.
+- Agents/Kimi: preserve already-valid Anthropic-compatible tool call argument objects while still clearing cached repairs when later trailing junk exceeds the repair allowance. (#54491) Thanks @yuanaichi.
+- Docker/setup: force BuildKit for local image builds (including sandbox image builds) so `./docker-setup.sh` no longer fails on `RUN --mount=...` when hosts default to Docker's legacy builder. (#56681) Thanks @zhanghui-china.
+- Control UI/agents: auto-load agent workspace files on initial Files panel open, and populate overview model/workspace/fallbacks from effective runtime agent metadata so defaulted models no longer show as `Not set`. (#56637) Thanks @dxsx84.
+- Control UI/slash commands: make `/steer` and `/redirect` work from the chat command palette with visible pending state for active-run `/steer`, correct redirected-run tracking, and a single canonical `/steer` entry in the command menu. (#54625) Thanks @fuller-stack-dev.
+- Exec/runtime: default implicit exec to `host=auto`, resolve that target to sandbox only when a sandbox runtime exists, keep explicit `host=sandbox` fail-closed without sandbox, and show `/exec` effective host state in runtime status/docs.
+- Exec: fail closed when the implicit sandbox host has no sandbox runtime, and stop denied async approval followups from reusing prior command output from the same session. (#56800) Thanks @scoootscooob.
+- Exec/approvals: infer Discord and Telegram exec approvers from existing owner config when `execApprovals.approvers` is unset, extend the default approval window to 30 minutes, and clarify approval-unavailable guidance so approvals do not appear to silently disappear.
+- Exec/node: stop gateway-side workdir fallback from rewriting explicit `host=node` cwd values to the gateway filesystem, so remote node exec approval and runs keep using the intended node-local directory. (#50961) Thanks @openperf.
+- Plugins/ClawHub: sanitize temporary archive filenames for scoped package names and slash-containing skill slugs so `openclaw plugins install @scope/name` no longer fails with `ENOENT` during archive download. (#56452) Thanks @soimy.
+- Telegram/polling: keep the watchdog from aborting long-running reply delivery by treating recent non-polling API activity as bounded liveness instead of a hard stall. (#56343) Thanks @openperf.
+- Memory/FTS: keep provider-less keyword hits visible at the default memory-search threshold, so FTS-only recall works without requiring `--min-score 0`. (#56473) Thanks @opriz.
+- Memory/LanceDB: resolve runtime dependency manifest lookup from the bundled `extensions/memory-lancedb` path (including flattened dist chunks) so startup no longer fails with a missing `@lancedb/lancedb` dependency error. (#56623) Thanks @LUKSOAgent.
+- Tools/web_search: localize the shared search cache to module scope so same-process global symbol lookups can no longer inspect or mutate cached web-search responses. Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Agents/silent turns: fail closed on silent memory-flush runs so narrated `NO_REPLY` self-talk cannot stream or finalize into external replies even when block streaming is enabled. (#52593)
-- Agents/subagents: fix interim subagent runtime display so `/subagents list` and `/subagents info` stop inflating short runtimes and show second-level durations correctly. (#57739) Thanks @samzong.
+- Browser/plugins: auto-enable the bundled browser plugin when browser config or browser tool policy already references it, and show a clearer CLI error when `plugins.allow` excludes `browser`.
+- Matrix/plugin loading: ship and source-load the crypto bootstrap runtime sidecar correctly so current `main` stops warning about failed Matrix bootstrap loads and `matrix/index` plugin-id mismatches on every invocation. (#53298) thanks @keithce.
+- iOS/Live Activities: mark the `ActivityKit` import in `LiveActivityManager.swift` as `@preconcurrency` so Xcode 26.4 / Swift 6 builds stop failing on strict concurrency checks. (#57180) Thanks @ngutman.
+- Plugins/Matrix: mirror the Matrix crypto WASM runtime dependency into the root packaged install and enforce root/plugin dependency parity so bundled Matrix E2EE crypto resolves correctly in shipped builds. (#57163) Thanks @gumadeiras.
+- Plugins/CLI: add descriptor-backed lazy plugin CLI registration so Matrix can keep its CLI module lazy-loaded without dropping `openclaw matrix ...` from parse-time command registration. (#57165) Thanks @gumadeiras.
+- Plugins/CLI: collect root-help plugin descriptors through a dedicated non-activating CLI metadata path so enabled plugins keep validated config semantics without triggering runtime-only plugin registration work, while preserving runtime CLI command registration for legacy channel plugins that still wire commands from full registration. (#57294) thanks @gumadeiras.
 - Anthropic/OAuth: inject `/fast` `service_tier` hints for direct `sk-ant-oat-*` requests so OAuth-authenticated Anthropic runs stop missing the same overload-routing signal as API-key traffic. Fixes #55758. Thanks @Cypherm and @vincentkoc.
 - Anthropic/service tiers: support explicit `serviceTier` model params for direct Anthropic requests and let them override `/fast` defaults when both are set. (#45453) Thanks @vincentkoc.
 - Auto-reply/fast: accept `/fast status` on the directive-only path, align help/status text with the documented `status|on|off` syntax, and keep current-state replies consistent across command surfaces. Fixes #46095. Thanks @weissfl and @vincentkoc.

-- CI/dev checks: default local `pnpm check` to a lower-memory typecheck/lint path while keeping CI on the normal parallel path, and harden Telegram test typing/literals around native TypeScript-Go tooling crashes.
-- Tasks: add a small task-flow runtime substrate for authoring layers with persisted wait targets and output bags, plus bundled skills/Lobster examples and richer `flows show` / `doctor` recovery hints for multi-task flow state. (#58336) Thanks @mbelinky and @vincentkoc.
-- Config/legacy cleanup: stop probing obsolete alternate legacy config names and service labels during local config/service detection, while keeping the active `~/.openclaw/openclaw.json` path canonical.
-- Config/runtime: pin the first successful config load in memory for the running process and refresh that snapshot on successful writes/reloads, so hot paths stop reparsing `openclaw.json` between watcher-driven swaps.
-- Config/SecretRef + Control UI: harden SecretRef redaction round-trip restore, block unsafe raw fallback (force Form mode when raw is unavailable), and preflight submitted-config SecretRefs before config write RPC persistence. (#58044) Thanks @joshavant.
-- Config/Telegram: migrate removed `channels.telegram.groupMentionsOnly` into `channels.telegram.groups["*"].requireMention` on load so legacy configs no longer crash at startup. (#55336) thanks @jameslcowan.

-- Cron/announce: preserve all deliverable text payloads for announce mode instead of collapsing to the last chunk, so multi-line cron reports deliver in full to Telegram forum topics.
-- Cron/isolated sessions: carry the full live-session provider, model, and auth-profile selection across retry restarts so cron jobs with model overrides no longer fail or loop on mid-run model-switch requests. (#57972) Thanks @issaba1.
-- Diffs/config: preserve schema-shaped plugin config parsing from `diffsPluginConfigSchema.safeParse()`, so direct callers keep `defaults` and `security` sections instead of receiving flattened tool defaults. (#57904) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Diffs: fall back to plain text when `lang` hints are invalid during diff render and viewer hydration, so bad or stale language values no longer break the diff viewer. (#57902) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Discord/voice: enforce the same guild channel and member allowlist checks on spoken voice ingress before transcription, so joined voice channels no longer accept speech from users outside the configured Discord access policy. Thanks @cyjhhh and @vincentkoc.

-- Docs/anchors: fix broken English docs links and make Mint anchor audits run against the English-source docs tree. (#57039) thanks @velvet-shark.
-- Doctor/plugins: skip false Matrix legacy-helper warnings when no migration plans exist, and keep bundled `enabledByDefault` plugins in the gateway startup set. (#57931) Thanks @dinakars777.
-- Exec approvals/macOS: unwrap `arch` and `xcrun` before deriving shell payloads and allow-always patterns, so wrapper approvals stay bound to the carried command instead of the outer carrier. Thanks @tdjackey and @vincentkoc.
-- Exec approvals: unwrap `caffeinate` and `sandbox-exec` before persisting allow-always trust so later shell payload changes still require a fresh approval. Thanks @tdjackey and @vincentkoc.
-- Exec/approvals: infer Discord and Telegram exec approvers from existing owner config when `execApprovals.approvers` is unset, extend the default approval window to 30 minutes, and clarify approval-unavailable guidance so approvals do not appear to silently disappear.
-- Exec/approvals: keep `awk` and `sed` family binaries out of the low-risk `safeBins` fast path, and stop doctor profile scaffolding from treating them like ordinary custom filters. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Exec/env: block proxy, TLS, and Docker endpoint env overrides in host execution so request-scoped commands cannot silently reroute outbound traffic or trust attacker-supplied certificate settings. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab.
-- Exec/env: block Python package index override variables from request-scoped host exec environment sanitization so package fetches cannot be redirected through a caller-supplied index. Thanks @nexrin and @vincentkoc.
-- Exec/node: stop gateway-side workdir fallback from rewriting explicit `host=node` cwd values to the gateway filesystem, so remote node exec approval and runs keep using the intended node-local directory. (#50961) Thanks @openperf.
-- Exec/runtime: default implicit exec to `host=auto`, resolve that target to sandbox only when a sandbox runtime exists, keep explicit `host=sandbox` fail-closed without sandbox, and show `/exec` effective host state in runtime status/docs.
-- Exec: fail closed when the implicit sandbox host has no sandbox runtime, and stop denied async approval followups from reusing prior command output from the same session. (#56800) Thanks @scoootscooob.
-- Feishu/groups: keep quoted replies and topic bootstrap context aligned with group sender allowlists so only allowlisted thread messages seed agent context. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/attachments: offload large inbound images without leaking `media://` markers into text-only runs, preserve mixed attachment order for model input/transcripts, and fail closed when model image capability cannot be resolved. (#55513) Thanks @Syysean.
-- Gateway/auth: keep shared-auth rate limiting active during WebSocket handshake attempts even when callers also send device-token candidates, so bogus device-token fields no longer suppress shared-secret brute-force tracking. Thanks @kexinoh and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/auth: reject mismatched browser `Origin` headers on trusted-proxy HTTP operator requests while keeping origin-less headless proxy clients working. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/device tokens: disconnect active device sessions after token rotation so newly rotated credentials revoke existing live connections immediately instead of waiting for those sockets to close naturally. Thanks @zsxsoft and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/health: carry webhook-vs-polling account mode from channel descriptors into runtime snapshots so passive channels like LINE and BlueBubbles skip false stale-socket health failures. (#47488) Thanks @karesansui-u.
-- Gateway/pairing: restore QR bootstrap onboarding handoff so fresh `/pair qr` iPhone setup can auto-approve the initial node pairing, receive a reusable node device token, and stop retrying with spent bootstrap auth. (#58382) Thanks @ngutman.
-- Gateway/OpenAI compatibility: accept flat Responses API function tool definitions on `/v1/responses` and preserve `strict` when normalizing hosted tools into the embedded runner, so spec-compliant clients like Codex no longer fail validation or silently lose strict tool enforcement. Thanks @malaiwah and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/OpenAI HTTP: restore default operator scopes for bearer-authenticated requests that omit `x-openclaw-scopes`, so headless `/v1/chat/completions` and session-history callers work again after the recent method-scope hardening. (#57596) Thanks @openperf.
-- Gateway/plugins: scope plugin-auth HTTP route runtime clients to read-only access and keep gateway-authenticated plugin routes on write scope, so plugin-owned webhook handlers do not inherit write-capable runtime access by default. Thanks @davidluzsilva and @vincentkoc.
-- Gateway/SecretRef: resolve restart token drift checks with merged service/runtime env sources and hard-fail unsupported mutable SecretRef plus OAuth-profile combinations so restart warnings and policy enforcement match runtime behavior. (#58141) Thanks @joshavant.
-- Gateway/tools HTTP: tighten HTTP tool-invoke authorization so owner-only tools stay off HTTP invoke paths. (#57773) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.
-- Harden async approval followup delivery in webchat-only sessions (#57359) Thanks @joshavant.
-- Heartbeat/auth: prevent exec-event heartbeat runs from inheriting owner-only tool access from the session delivery target, so node exec output stays on the non-owner tool surface even when the target session belongs to the owner. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab and @vincentkoc.
-- Hooks/config: accept runtime channel plugin ids in `hooks.mappings[].channel` (for example `feishu`) instead of rejecting non-core channels during config validation. (#56226) Thanks @AiKrai001.
-- Hooks/session routing: rebind hook-triggered `agent:` session keys to the actual target agent before isolated dispatch so dedicated hook agents keep their own session-scoped tool and plugin identity. Thanks @kexinoh and @vincentkoc.
-- Host exec/env: block additional request-scoped env overrides that can redirect Docker endpoints, trust roots, compiler include paths, package resolution, or Python environment roots during approved host runs. Thanks @tdjackey and @vincentkoc.
-- Image generation/build: write stable runtime alias files into `dist/` and route provider-auth runtime lookups through those aliases so image-generation providers keep resolving auth/runtime modules after rebuilds instead of crashing on missing hashed chunk files.
-- iOS/Live Activities: mark the `ActivityKit` import in `LiveActivityManager.swift` as `@preconcurrency` so Xcode 26.4 / Swift 6 builds stop failing on strict concurrency checks. (#57180) Thanks @ngutman.
-- LINE/ACP: add current-conversation binding and inbound binding-routing parity so `/acp spawn ... --thread here`, configured ACP bindings, and active conversation-bound ACP sessions work on LINE like the other conversation channels.
-- LINE/markdown: preserve underscores inside Latin, Cyrillic, and CJK words when stripping markdown, while still removing standalone `_italic_` markers on the shared text-runtime path used by LINE and TTS. (#47465) Thanks @jackjin1997.
-- LINE/status: stop `openclaw status` from warning about missing credentials when sanitized LINE snapshots are already configured, while still surfacing whether the missing field is the token or secret. (#45701) Thanks @tamaosamu.
-- macOS/local gateway: stop OpenClaw.app from killing healthy local gateway listeners after startup by recognizing the current `openclaw-gateway` process title and using the current `openclaw gateway` launch shape.
-- macOS/wide-area discovery: switch gateway discovery to Tailscale MagicDNS names so Mac clients recover more reliably across changing tailnet IPs. (#57833) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.
-- Matrix/CLI send: start one-off Matrix send clients before outbound delivery so `openclaw message send --channel matrix` restores E2EE in encrypted rooms instead of sending plain events. (#57936) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Matrix/context: filter fetched room context by sender allowlists so reply and thread context lookup no longer pulls non-allowlisted messages into agent context. (#58376) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.
-- Matrix/delivery recovery: treat Synapse `User not in room` replay failures as permanent during startup recovery so poisoned queued messages move to `failed/` instead of crash-looping Matrix after restart. (#57426) thanks @dlardo.
-- Matrix/direct rooms: recover fresh auto-joined 1:1 DMs without eagerly persisting invite-only `m.direct` mappings, while keeping named, aliased, and explicitly configured rooms on the room path. (#58024) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Matrix/direct rooms: stop trusting remote `is_direct`, honor explicit local `is_direct: false` for discovered DM candidates, and avoid extra member-state lookups for shared rooms so DM routing and repair stay aligned. (#57124) Thanks @w-sss.
-- Matrix/DM threads: keep strict unnamed fresh-invite rooms promotable even when Matrix omits the optional direct hint, preserve repair-failed local DM promotions while still revalidating later room metadata, and keep both bound and thread-isolated Matrix sessions reporting the correct route policy. (#58099) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Matrix/plugin loading: ship and source-load the crypto bootstrap runtime sidecar correctly so current `main` stops warning about failed Matrix bootstrap loads and `matrix/index` plugin-id mismatches on every invocation. (#53298) thanks @keithce.
-- Mattermost/websocket: detect stale Mattermost WebSocket sessions after bot disable/enable cycles so monitoring reconnects cleanly instead of silently staying stale. (#53604) Thanks @Qinsam.
-- Media/downloads: stop forwarding auth and cookie headers across cross-origin redirects during media saves, while preserving safe request headers for same-origin redirect chains. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab and @vincentkoc.
-- Media/images: reject oversized decoded image inputs before metadata and resize backends run, so tiny compressed image bombs fail early instead of exhausting gateway memory. (#58226) Thanks @AntAISecurityLab and @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/doctor: probe QMD availability from the agent workspace too, so `openclaw doctor` no longer falsely reports relative `memory.qmd.command` configs as broken while runtime search still works. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/doctor: suppress the orphan transcript cleanup warning when QMD session indexing is enabled, so doctor no longer suggests deleting transcript history that QMD still uses for recall. (#40584) Thanks @Gyarados4157 and @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/FTS: add configurable trigram tokenization plus short-CJK substring fallback so memory search can find Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text without breaking mixed long-and-short queries. Thanks @carrotRakko.

-- Memory/QMD: add `memory.qmd.searchTool` as an exact mcporter tool override, so custom QMD MCP tools such as `hybrid_search` can be used without weakening the validated `searchMode` config surface. (#27801) Thanks @keramblock.
-- Memory/QMD: honor `memory.qmd.update.embedInterval` even when regular QMD update cadence is disabled or slower by arming a dedicated embed-cadence maintenance timer, while avoiding redundant timers when regular updates are already frequent enough. (#37326) Thanks @barronlroth.
-- Memory/QMD: include deduplicated default plus per-agent `memorySearch.extraPaths` when building QMD custom collections, so shared and agent-specific extra roots both get indexed consistently. (#57315) Thanks @Vitalcheffe and @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/QMD: keep `memory_search` session-hit paths roundtrip-safe when exported session markdown lives under the workspace `qmd/` directory, so `memory_get` can read the exact returned path instead of failing on the generic `qmd/sessions/...` alias. (#43519) Thanks @holgergruenhagen and @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/QMD: keep `qmd embed` active in `search` mode too, so BM25-first setups still build a complete index for later vector and hybrid retrieval. (#54509) Thanks @hnshah and @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/QMD: keep reset and deleted session transcripts in QMD session export so daily session resets do not silently drop most historical recall from `memory_search`. (#30220) Thanks @pushkarsingh32.
-- Memory/QMD: pass a direct-session key on `openclaw memory search` so CLI QMD searches no longer get denied as `session=<none>` under direct-only scope defaults. (#43517) Thanks @waynecc-at and @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/QMD: point `QMD_CONFIG_DIR` at the nested `xdg-config/qmd` directory so per-agent collection config resolves correctly. (#39078) Thanks @smart-tinker and @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/QMD: preserve explicit `start_line` and `end_line` metadata from mcporter query results so `memory search` hits keep the real snippet offsets instead of falling back to the snippet header. (#47960) Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/QMD: rebind collections when QMD reports a changed pattern but omits path metadata, so config pattern changes stop being silently ignored on restart. (#49897) Thanks @Madruru.
-- Memory/QMD: resolve slugified `memory_search` file hints back to the indexed filesystem path before returning search hits, so `memory_get` works again for mixed-case and spaced paths. (#50313) Thanks @erra9x.
-- Memory/QMD: send MCP `query` collection filters as the upstream `collections` array instead of the legacy singular `collection` field, so mcporter-backed QMD 1.1+ searches still scope correctly after the unified `query` tool migration. (#54728) Thanks @armanddp and @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/QMD: serialize cross-process `qmd embed` runs behind a shared lock and stagger periodic embed timers so multi-agent QMD collections stop thundering-herding on startup and every maintenance interval. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/QMD: stop rewriting Han/CJK BM25 queries before `qmd search`, so OpenClaw search semantics match direct QMD results for mixed and spaced Chinese queries. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/QMD: surface degraded vector status from `qmd status` so `openclaw memory status --deep` warns when semantic search is unavailable because the index still has `0` vectors. Fixes #28169. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/QMD: treat null-byte collection corruption the same when QMD surfaces it as `ENOENT`, so managed-collection repair still rebuilds and retries instead of leaving QMD stuck on a broken path. Thanks @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/QMD: warn explicitly when `memory.backend=qmd` is configured but the `qmd` binary is missing, so doctor and runtime fallback no longer fail as a silent builtin downgrade. (#50439) Thanks @Jimmy-xuzimo and @vincentkoc.
-- Memory/QMD: weight CJK-heavy text correctly when estimating chunk sizes, preserve surrogate-pair characters during fine splits, and keep long Latin lines on the old chunk boundaries so memory indexing produces better-sized chunks for CJK notes. (#40271) Thanks @AaronLuo00.
-- Memory/session indexer: include `.jsonl.reset.*` and `.jsonl.deleted.*` transcripts in the memory host session scan while still excluding `.jsonl.bak.*` compaction backups and lock files, so memory search sees archived session history without duplicating stale snapshots. Thanks @hclsys and @vincentkoc.
-- Microsoft Teams/threads: filter fetched thread history by sender allowlists so thread context seeding no longer pulls messages from disallowed users. (#57723) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.
-- OpenAI/Codex fast mode: map `/fast` to priority processing on native OpenAI and Codex Responses endpoints instead of rewriting reasoning settings, and document the exact endpoint and override behavior.
-- Outbound media/local files: piggyback host-local `MEDIA:` reads on the configured fs policy instead of a separate media-root check, so generated files outside the workspace can send when `tools.fs.workspaceOnly=false` while plaintext-like host files stay blocked by the outbound media allowlist.
-- Pairing: enforce pending request limits per account instead of per shared channel queue, so one account's outstanding pairing challenges no longer block new pairing on other accounts. Thanks @smaeljaish771 and @vincentkoc.
-- Plugins/ClawHub: sanitize temporary archive filenames for scoped package names and slash-containing skill slugs so `openclaw plugins install @scope/name` no longer fails with `ENOENT` during archive download. (#56452) Thanks @soimy.

-- Plugins/CLI: collect root-help plugin descriptors through a dedicated non-activating CLI metadata path so enabled plugins keep validated config semantics without triggering runtime-only plugin registration work, while preserving runtime CLI command registration for legacy channel plugins that still wire commands from full registration. (#57294) thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Plugins/facades: guard bundled plugin facade loads with a cache-first sentinel so circular re-entry stops crashing `xai`, `sglang`, and `vllm` during gateway plugin startup. (#57508) Thanks @openperf.
-- Plugins/Matrix: mirror the Matrix crypto WASM runtime dependency into the root packaged install and enforce root/plugin dependency parity so bundled Matrix E2EE crypto resolves correctly in shipped builds. (#57163) Thanks @gumadeiras.
-- Plugins/startup: block workspace `.env` from overriding `OPENCLAW_BUNDLED_PLUGINS_DIR`, so bundled plugin trust roots only come from inherited runtime env or package resolution instead of repo-local dotenv files. Thanks @nexrin and @vincentkoc.
-- Sandbox/browser: install `fonts-noto-cjk` in the sandbox browser image so screenshots render Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text correctly instead of tofu boxes. Fixes #35597. Thanks @carrotRakko and @vincentkoc.

-- Telegram/security: migrate legacy pairing `allowFrom` state to the `default` account only and gate group voice-message preflight transcription on sender authorization so unauthorized senders cannot trigger paid transcription before being dropped. (#58165, #57566)
-- Exec approvals: stop shell init-file flags from matching persisted script-path approvals, detect command-carrier inline eval in tools like `awk`, `find`, `xargs`, `make`, and `sed`, and treat the awk family as interpreter-like so allow-always decisions no longer persist interpreter paths.

-- Gateway/trusted config and bootstrap: clear self-declared scopes for device-less `trusted-proxy` WebSocket connects and trim the Control UI bootstrap payload to only the fields needed before the normal handshake. (#57692, #57727)
-- Skills and workspace safety: replace raw skill-file reads with a symlink-safe, root-confined loader and pin workspace-only `apply_patch` delete and directory-creation mutations to verified workspace roots so path rebind races fail closed. (#57519, #56016)
-- Env and filesystem hardening: block credential and gateway auth env vars from workspace `.env` files, always strip dangerous inherited host env vars such as `BROWSER` and `GIT_EDITOR`, and keep sensitive host paths and OpenClaw state roots blocked even when external sandbox bind sources are allowed. (#57767, #57559, #56024)
-- OpenShell and ACP file boundaries: skip symlinks and preserve trusted host-only directories during OpenShell mirror sync, and route ACP attachment reads through the shared attachment cache so local files outside allowed roots are no longer forwarded. (#57693, #57690)

+- Agents/Anthropic failover: treat Anthropic `api_error` payloads with `An unexpected error occurred while processing the response` as transient so retry/fallback can engage instead of surfacing a terminal failure. (#57441) Thanks @zijiess and @vincentkoc.
+- Agents/compaction: keep late compaction-retry rejections handled after the aggregate timeout path wins without swallowing real pre-timeout wait failures, so timed-out retries no longer surface an unhandled rejection on later unsubscribe. (#57451) Thanks @mpz4life and @vincentkoc.
+- Matrix/delivery recovery: treat Synapse `User not in room` replay failures as permanent during startup recovery so poisoned queued messages move to `failed/` instead of crash-looping Matrix after restart. (#57426) thanks @dlardo.
+- Plugins/facades: guard bundled plugin facade loads with a cache-first sentinel so circular re-entry stops crashing `xai`, `sglang`, and `vllm` during gateway plugin startup. (#57508) Thanks @openperf.
+- Agents/MCP: dispose bundled MCP runtimes after one-shot `openclaw agent --local` runs finish, while preserving bundled MCP state across in-run retries so local JSON runs exit cleanly without restarting stateful MCP tools mid-run.

+- 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/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.
+- 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.
+- 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.

 - 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.

These are hardening-only findings and are not vulnerabilities; triage may close them as `invalid`/`no-action` or track them separately as low/informational hardening.
-- Reports whose only claim is that an ACP-exposed tool can indirectly execute commands, mutate host state, or reach another privileged tool/runtime without demonstrating a bypass of ACP prompt/approval, allowlist enforcement, sandboxing, or another documented trust boundary. These are hardening-only findings, not vulnerabilities.
 - Reports whose only claim is that exec approvals do not semantically model every interpreter/runtime loader form, subcommand, flag combination, package script, or transitive module/config import. Exec approvals bind exact request context and best-effort direct local file operands; they are not a complete semantic model of everything a runtime may load.
 - Exposed secrets that are third-party/user-controlled credentials (not OpenClaw-owned and not granting access to OpenClaw-operated infrastructure/services) without demonstrated OpenClaw impact
 - Reports whose only claim is host-side exec when sandbox runtime is disabled/unavailable (documented default behavior in the trusted-operator model), without a boundary bypass.

-<h3>Changes</h3>
-<ul>
-<li>Tasks/chat: add <code>/tasks</code> as a chat-native background task board for the current session, with recent task details and agent-local fallback counts when no linked tasks are visible. Related #54226. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Web search/SearXNG: add the bundled SearXNG provider plugin for <code>web_search</code> with configurable host support. (#57317) Thanks @cgdusek.</li>
-<li>Amazon Bedrock/Guardrails: add Bedrock Guardrails support to the bundled provider. (#58588) Thanks @MikeORed.</li>
-<li>macOS/Voice Wake: add the Voice Wake option to trigger Talk Mode. (#58490) Thanks @SmoothExec.</li>
-<li>Feishu/comments: add a dedicated Drive comment-event flow with comment-thread context resolution, in-thread replies, and <code>feishu_drive</code> comment actions for document collaboration workflows. (#58497) Thanks @wittam-01.</li>
-<li>Gateway/webchat: make <code>chat.history</code> text truncation configurable with <code>gateway.webchat.chatHistoryMaxChars</code> and per-request <code>maxChars</code>, while preserving silent-reply filtering and existing default payload limits. (#58900)</li>
-<li>Agents/default params: add <code>agents.defaults.params</code> for global default provider parameters. (#58548) Thanks @lpender.</li>
-<li>Agents/failover: cap prompt-side and assistant-side same-provider auth-profile retries for rate-limit failures before cross-provider model fallback, add the <code>auth.cooldowns.rateLimitedProfileRotations</code> knob, and document the new fallback behavior. (#58707) Thanks @Forgely3D</li>
-<li>Cron/tools allowlist: add <code>openclaw cron --tools</code> for per-job tool allowlists. (#58504) Thanks @andyk-ms.</li>
-<li>Channels/session routing: move provider-specific session conversation grammar into plugin-owned session-key surfaces, preserving Telegram topic routing and Feishu scoped inheritance across bootstrap, model override, restart, and tool-policy paths.</li>
-<li>WhatsApp/reactions: add <code>reactionLevel</code> guidance for agent reactions. Thanks @mcaxtr.</li>
-<li>Telegram/errors: add configurable <code>errorPolicy</code> and <code>errorCooldownMs</code> controls so Telegram can suppress repeated delivery errors per account, chat, and topic without muting distinct failures. (#51914) Thanks @chinar-amrutkar</li>
-<li>ZAI/models: add <code>glm-5.1</code> and <code>glm-5v-turbo</code> to the bundled Z.AI provider catalog. (#58793) Thanks @tomsun28</li>
-<li>Agents/compaction: resolve <code>agents.defaults.compaction.model</code> consistently for manual <code>/compact</code> and other context-engine compaction paths, so engine-owned compaction uses the configured override model across runtime entrypoints. (#56710) Thanks @oliviareid-svg</li>
-</ul>
-<h3>Fixes</h3>
-<ul>
-<li>Chat/error replies: stop leaking raw provider/runtime failures into external chat channels, return a friendly retry message instead, and add a specific <code>/new</code> hint for Bedrock toolResult/toolUse session mismatches. (#58831) Thanks @ImLukeF.</li>
-<li>Gateway/reload: ignore startup config writes by persisted hash in the config reloader so generated auth tokens and seeded Control UI origins do not trigger a restart loop, while real <code>gateway.auth.*</code> edits still require restart. (#58678) Thanks @yelog</li>
-<li>Tasks/gateway: keep the task registry maintenance sweep from stalling the gateway event loop under synchronous SQLite pressure, so upgraded gateways stop hanging about a minute after startup. (#58670) Thanks @openperf</li>
-<li>Tasks/status: hide stale completed background tasks from <code>/status</code> and <code>session_status</code>, prefer live task context, and show recent failures only when no active work remains. (#58661) Thanks @vincentkoc</li>
-<li>Tasks/gateway: re-check the current task record before maintenance marks runs lost or prunes them, so a task heartbeat or cleanup update that lands during a sweep no longer gets overwritten by stale snapshot state.</li>
-<li>Exec/approvals: honor <code>exec-approvals.json</code> security defaults when inline or configured tool policy is unset, and keep Slack and Discord native approval handling aligned with inferred approvers and real channel enablement so remote exec stops falling into false approval timeouts and disabled states. Thanks @scoootscooob and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Exec/approvals: make <code>allow-always</code> persist as durable user-approved trust instead of behaving like <code>allow-once</code>, reuse exact-command trust on shell-wrapper paths that cannot safely persist an executable allowlist entry, keep static allowlist entries from silently bypassing <code>ask:"always"</code>, and require explicit approval when Windows cannot build an allowlist execution plan instead of hard-dead-ending remote exec. Thanks @scoootscooob and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Exec/cron: resolve isolated cron no-route approval dead-ends from the effective host fallback policy when trusted automation is allowed, and make <code>openclaw doctor</code> warn when <code>tools.exec</code> is broader than <code>~/.openclaw/exec-approvals.json</code> so stricter host-policy conflicts are explicit. Thanks @scoootscooob and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Sessions/model switching: keep <code>/model</code> changes queued behind busy runs instead of interrupting the active turn, and retarget queued followups so later work picks up the new model as soon as the current turn finishes.</li>
-<li>Gateway/HTTP: skip failing HTTP request stages so one broken facade no longer forces every HTTP endpoint to return 500. (#58746) Thanks @yelog</li>
-<li>Gateway/nodes: stop pinning live node commands to the approved node-pair record. Node pairing remains a trust/token flow, while per-node <code>system.run</code> policy stays in that node's exec approvals config. Fixes #58824.</li>
-<li>WebChat/exec approvals: use native approval UI guidance in agent system prompts instead of telling agents to paste manual <code>/approve</code> commands in webchat sessions. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Web UI/OpenResponses: preserve rewritten stream snapshots in webchat and keep OpenResponses final streamed text aligned when models rewind earlier output. (#58641) Thanks @neeravmakwana</li>
-<li>Discord/inbound media: pass Discord attachment and sticker downloads through the shared idle-timeout and worker-abort path so slow or stuck inbound media fetches stop hanging message processing. (#58593) Thanks @aquaright1</li>
-<li>Telegram/retries: keep non-idempotent sends on the strict safe-send path, retry wrapped pre-connect failures, and preserve <code>429</code> / <code>retry_after</code> backoff for safe delivery retries. (#51895) Thanks @chinar-amrutkar</li>
-<li>Telegram/exec approvals: route topic-aware exec approval followups through Telegram-owned threading and approval-target parsing, so forum-topic approvals stay in the originating topic instead of falling back to the root chat. (#58783)</li>
-<li>Telegram/local Bot API: preserve media MIME types for absolute-path downloads so local audio files still trigger transcription and other MIME-based handling. (#54603) Thanks @jzakirov</li>
-<li>Channels/WhatsApp: pass inbound message timestamp to model context so the AI can see when WhatsApp messages were sent. (#58590) Thanks @Maninae</li>
-<li>Channels/QQ Bot: keep <code>/bot-logs</code> export gated behind a truly explicit QQBot allowlist, rejecting wildcard and mixed wildcard entries while preserving the real framework command path. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Channels/plugins: keep bundled channel plugins loadable from legacy <code>channels.<id></code> config even under restrictive plugin allowlists, and make <code>openclaw doctor</code> warn only on real plugin blockers instead of misleading setup guidance. (#58873) Thanks @obviyus</li>
-<li>Plugins/bundled runtimes: restore externalized bundled plugin runtime dependency staging across packed installs, Docker builds, and local runtime staging so bundled plugins keep their declared runtime deps after the 2026.3.31 externalization change. (#58782)</li>
-<li>LINE/runtime: resolve the packaged runtime contract from the built <code>dist/plugins/runtime</code> layout so LINE channels start correctly again after global npm installs on <code>2026.3.31</code>. (#58799) Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>MiniMax/plugins: auto-enable the bundled MiniMax plugin for API-key auth/config so MiniMax image generation and other plugin-owned capabilities load without manual plugin allowlisting. (#57127) Thanks @tars90percent.</li>
-<li>Ollama/model picker: show only Ollama models after provider selection in the CLI picker. (#55290) Thanks @Luckymingxuan.</li>
-<li>CDP/profiles: prefer <code>cdpPort</code> over stale WebSocket URLs so browser automation reconnects cleanly. (#58499) Thanks @Mlightsnow.</li>
-<li>Media/paths: resolve relative <code>MEDIA</code> paths against the agent workspace so local attachment references keep working. (#58624) Thanks @aquaright1.</li>
-<li>Memory/session indexing: keep full reindexes from skipping session transcripts when sync is triggered by <code>session-start</code> or <code>watch</code>, so restart-driven reindexes preserve session memory. (#39732) Thanks @upupc</li>
-<li>Memory/QMD: prefer <code>--mask</code> over <code>--glob</code> when creating QMD collections so default memory collections keep their intended patterns and stop colliding on restart. (#58643) Thanks @GitZhangChi.</li>
-<li>Subagents/tasks: keep subagent completion and cleanup from crashing when task-registry writes fail, so a corrupt or missing task row no longer takes down the gateway during lifecycle finalization. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Sandbox/browser: compare browser runtime inspection against <code>agents.defaults.sandbox.browser.image</code> so <code>openclaw sandbox list --browser</code> stops reporting healthy browser containers as image mismatches. (#58759) Thanks @sandpile.</li>
-<li>Plugins/install: forward <code>--dangerously-force-unsafe-install</code> through archive and npm-spec plugin installs so the documented override reaches the security scanner on those install paths. (#58879) Thanks @ryanlee-gemini.</li>
-<li>Auto-reply/commands: strip inbound metadata before slash command detection so wrapped <code>/model</code>, <code>/new</code>, and <code>/status</code> commands are recognized. (#58725) Thanks @Mlightsnow.</li>
-<li>Agents/Anthropic: preserve thinking blocks and signatures across replay, cache-control patching, and context pruning so compacted Anthropic sessions continue working instead of failing on later turns. (#58916) Thanks @obviyus</li>
-<li>Agents/failover: unify structured and raw provider error classification so provider-specific <code>400</code>/<code>422</code> payloads no longer get forced into generic format failures before retry, billing, or compaction logic can inspect them. (#58856) Thanks @aaron-he-zhu.</li>
-<li>Auth profiles/store: coerce misplaced SecretRef objects out of plaintext <code>key</code> and <code>token</code> fields during store load so agents without ACP runtime stop crashing on <code>.trim()</code> after upgrade. (#58923) Thanks @openperf.</li>
-<li>ACPX/runtime: repair <code>queue owner unavailable</code> session recovery by replacing dead named sessions and resuming the backend session when ACPX exposes a stable session id, so the first ACP prompt no longer inherits a dead handle. (#58669) Thanks @neeravmakwana</li>
-<li>ACPX/runtime: retry dead-session queue-owner repair without <code>--resume-session</code> when the reported ACPX session id is stale, so recovery still creates a fresh named session instead of failing session init. Thanks @obviyus.</li>
-<li>Auth/OpenAI Codex: persist plugin-refreshed OAuth credentials to <code>auth-profiles.json</code> before returning them, so rotated Codex refresh tokens survive restart and stop falling into <code>refresh_token_reused</code> loops. (#53082)</li>
-<li>Discord/gateway: hand reconnect ownership back to Carbon, keep runtime status aligned with close/reconnect state, and force-stop sockets that open without reaching READY so Discord monitors recover promptly instead of waiting on stale health timeouts. (#59019) Thanks @obviyus</li>

-            <description><![CDATA[<h2>OpenClaw 2026.3.31</h2>
-<h3>Breaking</h3>
-<ul>
-<li>Nodes/exec: remove the duplicated <code>nodes.run</code> shell wrapper from the CLI and agent <code>nodes</code> tool so node shell execution always goes through <code>exec host=node</code>, keeping node-specific capabilities on <code>nodes invoke</code> and the dedicated media/location/notify actions.</li>
-<li>Plugin SDK: deprecate the legacy provider compat subpaths plus the older bundled provider setup and channel-runtime compatibility shims, emit migration warnings, and keep the current documented <code>openclaw/plugin-sdk/*</code> entrypoints plus local <code>api.ts</code> / <code>runtime-api.ts</code> barrels as the forward path ahead of a future major-release removal.</li>
-<li>Skills/install and Plugins/install: built-in dangerous-code <code>critical</code> findings and install-time scan failures now fail closed by default, so plugin installs and gateway-backed skill dependency installs that previously succeeded may now require an explicit dangerous override such as <code>--dangerously-force-unsafe-install</code> to proceed.</li>
-<li>Gateway/auth: <code>trusted-proxy</code> now rejects mixed shared-token configs, and local-direct fallback requires the configured token instead of implicitly authenticating same-host callers. Thanks @zhangning-agent, @jacobtomlinson, and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Gateway/node commands: node commands now stay disabled until node pairing is approved, so device pairing alone is no longer enough to expose declared node commands. (#57777) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.</li>
-<li>Gateway/node events: node-originated runs now stay on a reduced trusted surface, so notification-driven or node-triggered flows that previously relied on broader host/session tool access may need adjustment. (#57691) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.</li>
-</ul>
-<h3>Changes</h3>
-<ul>
-<li>ACP/plugins: add an explicit default-off ACPX plugin-tools MCP bridge config, document the trust boundary, and harden the built-in bridge packaging/logging path so global installs and stdio MCP sessions work reliably. (#56867) Thanks @joe2643.</li>
-<li>Agents/LLM: add a configurable idle-stream timeout for embedded runner requests so stalled model streams abort cleanly instead of hanging until the broader run timeout fires. (#55072) Thanks @liuy.</li>
-<li>Agents/MCP: materialize bundle MCP tools with provider-safe names (<code>serverName__toolName</code>), support optional <code>streamable-http</code> transport selection plus per-server connection timeouts, and preserve real tool results from aborted/error turns unless truncation explicitly drops them. (#49505) Thanks @ziomancer.</li>
-<li>Android/notifications: add notification-forwarding controls with package filtering, quiet hours, rate limiting, and safer picker behavior for forwarded notification events. (#40175) Thanks @nimbleenigma.</li>
-<li>Background tasks: turn tasks into a real shared background-run control plane instead of ACP-only bookkeeping by unifying ACP, subagent, cron, and background CLI execution under one SQLite-backed ledger, routing detached lifecycle updates through the executor seam, adding audit/maintenance/status visibility, tightening auto-cleanup and lost-run recovery, improving task awareness in internal status/tool surfaces, and clarifying the split between heartbeat/main-session automation and detached scheduled runs. Thanks @mbelinky and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Background tasks: add the first linear task flow control surface with <code>openclaw flows list|show|cancel</code>, keep manual multi-task flows separate from one-task auto-sync flows, and surface doctor recovery hints for obviously orphaned or broken flow/task linkage. Thanks @mbelinky and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Channels/QQ Bot: add QQ Bot as a bundled channel plugin with multi-account setup, SecretRef-aware credentials, slash commands, reminders, and media send/receive support. (#52986) Thanks @sliverp.</li>
-<li>Diffs: skip unused viewer-versus-file SSR preload work so <code>diffs</code> view-only and file-only runs do less render work while keeping mode outputs aligned. (#57909) thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
-<li>Tasks: add a minimal SQLite-backed task flow registry plus task-to-flow linkage scaffolding, so orchestrated work can start gaining a first-class parent record without changing current task delivery behavior. Thanks @mbelinky and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Tasks: persist blocked state on one-task task flows and let the same flow reopen cleanly on retry, so blocked detached work can carry a parent-level reason and continue without fragmenting into a new job. Thanks @mbelinky and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Tasks: route one-task ACP and subagent updates through a parent task-flow owner context, so detached work can emerge back through the intended parent thread/session instead of speaking only as a raw child task. Thanks @mbelinky and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>LINE/outbound media: add LINE image, video, and audio outbound sends on the LINE-specific delivery path, including explicit preview/tracking handling for videos while keeping generic media sends on the existing image-only route. (#45826) Thanks @masatohoshino.</li>
-<li>Matrix/history: add optional room history context for Matrix group triggers via <code>channels.matrix.historyLimit</code>, with per-agent watermarks and retry-safe snapshots so failed trigger retries do not drift into newer room messages. (#57022) thanks @chain710.</li>
-<li>Matrix/network: add explicit <code>channels.matrix.proxy</code> config for routing Matrix traffic through an HTTP(S) proxy, including account-level overrides and matching probe/runtime behavior. (#56931) thanks @patrick-yingxi-pan.</li>
-<li>Matrix/streaming: add draft streaming so partial Matrix replies update the same message in place instead of sending a new message for each chunk. (#56387) Thanks @jrusz.</li>
-<li>Matrix/threads: add per-DM <code>threadReplies</code> overrides and keep thread session isolation aligned with the effective room or DM thread policy from the triggering message onward. (#57995) thanks @teconomix.</li>
-<li>MCP: add remote HTTP/SSE server support for <code>mcp.servers</code> URL configs, including auth headers and safer config redaction for MCP credentials. (#50396) Thanks @dhananjai1729.</li>
-<li>Memory/QMD: add per-agent <code>memorySearch.qmd.extraCollections</code> so agents can opt into cross-agent session search without flattening every transcript collection into one shared QMD namespace. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Microsoft Teams/member info: add a Graph-backed member info action so Teams automations and tools can resolve channel member details directly from Microsoft Graph. (#57528) Thanks @sudie-codes.</li>
-<li>Nostr/inbound DMs: verify inbound event signatures before pairing or sender-authorization side effects, so forged DM events no longer create pairing requests or trigger reply attempts. Thanks @smaeljaish771 and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>OpenAI/Responses: forward configured <code>text.verbosity</code> across Responses HTTP and WebSocket transports, surface it in <code>/status</code>, and keep per-agent verbosity precedence aligned with runtime behavior. (#47106) Thanks @merc1305 and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Pi/Codex: add native Codex web search support for embedded Pi runs, including config/docs/wizard coverage and managed-tool suppression when native Codex search is active. (#46579) Thanks @Evizero.</li>
-<li>Slack/exec approvals: add native Slack approval routing and approver authorization so exec approval prompts can stay in Slack instead of falling back to the Web UI or terminal. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>TTS: Add structured provider diagnostics and fallback attempt analytics. (#57954) Thanks @joshavant.</li>
-<li>WhatsApp/reactions: agents can now react with emoji on incoming WhatsApp messages, enabling more natural conversational interactions like acknowledging a photo with ❤️ instead of typing a reply. Thanks @mcaxtr.</li>
-<li>Agents/BTW: force <code>/btw</code> side questions to disable provider reasoning so Anthropic adaptive-thinking sessions stop failing with <code>No BTW response generated</code>. Fixes #55376. Thanks @Catteres and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>CLI/onboarding: reset the remote gateway URL prompt to the safe loopback default after declining a discovered endpoint, so onboarding does not keep a previously rejected remote URL. (#57828)</li>
-<li>Agents/exec defaults: honor per-agent <code>tools.exec</code> defaults when no inline directive or session override is present, so configured exec host, security, ask, and node settings actually apply. (#57689)</li>
-<li>Sandbox/networking: sanitize SSH subprocess env vars through the shared sandbox policy and route marketplace archive downloads plus Ollama discovery, auth, and pull requests through the guarded fetch path so sandboxed execution and remote fetches follow the repo's trust boundaries. (#57848, #57850)</li>
-</ul>
-<h3>Fixes</h3>
-<ul>
-<li>Slack: stop retry-driven duplicate replies when draft-finalization edits fail ambiguously, and log configured allowlisted users/channels by readable name instead of raw IDs.</li>
-<li>Agents/OpenAI Responses: normalize raw bundled MCP tool schemas on the WebSocket/Responses path so bare-object, object-ish, and top-level union MCP tools no longer get rejected by OpenAI during tool registration. (#58299) Thanks @yelog.</li>
-<li>ACP/security: replace ACP's dangerous-tool name override with semantic approval classes, so only narrow readonly reads/searches can auto-approve while indirect exec-capable and control-plane tools always require explicit prompt approval. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>ACP/sessions_spawn: register ACP child runs for completion tracking and lifecycle cleanup, and make registration-failure cleanup explicitly best-effort so callers do not assume an already-started ACP turn was fully aborted. (#40885) Thanks @xaeon2026 and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>ACP/tasks: mark cleanly exited ACP runs as blocked when they end on deterministic write or authorization blockers, and wake the parent session with a follow-up instead of falsely reporting success.</li>
-<li>ACPX/runtime: derive the bundled ACPX expected version from the extension package metadata instead of hardcoding a separate literal, so plugin-local ACPX installs stop drifting out of health-check parity after version bumps. (#49089) Thanks @jiejiesks and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Agents/Anthropic failover: treat Anthropic <code>api_error</code> payloads with <code>An unexpected error occurred while processing the response</code> as transient so retry/fallback can engage instead of surfacing a terminal failure. (#57441) Thanks @zijiess and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Agents/compaction: keep late compaction-retry completions from double-resolving finished compaction futures, so interrupted or timed-out compactions stop surfacing spurious second-completion races. (#57796) Thanks @joshavant.</li>
-<li>Agents/disabled providers: make disabled providers disappear from default model selection and embedded provider fallback, while letting explicitly pinned disabled providers fail with a clear config error instead of silently taking traffic. (#57735) Thanks @rileybrown-dev and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Agents/OAuth output: force exec-host OAuth output readers through the gateway fs policy so embedded gateway runs stop crashing when provider auth writes land outside the current sandbox workspace. (#58249) Thanks @joshavant.</li>
-<li>Agents/system prompt: fix <code>agent.name</code> interpolation in the embedded runtime system prompt and make provider/model fallback text reflect the effective runtime selection after start. (#57625) Thanks @StllrSvr and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Android/device info: read the app's version metadata from the package manager instead of hidden APIs so Android 15+ onboarding and device info no longer fail to compile or report placeholder values. (#58126) Thanks @L3ER0Y.</li>
-<li>Android/pairing: stop appending duplicate push receiver entries to <code>gateway-service.conf</code> on repeated QR pairing and keep push registration bounded to the current successful pairing, so Android push delivery stays healthy across re-pair and token rotation. (#58256) Thanks @surrealroad.</li>
-<li>App install smoke: pin the latest-release lookup to <code>latest</code>, cache the first stable install version across the rerun, and relax prerelease package assertions so the Parallels smoke lane can validate stable-to-main upgrades even when <code>beta</code> moves ahead or the guest starts from an older stable. (#58177) Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Auth/profiles: keep the last successful config load in memory for the running process and refresh that snapshot on successful writes/reloads, so hot paths stop reparsing <code>openclaw.json</code> between watcher-driven swaps.</li>
-<li>Config/SecretRef + Control UI: harden SecretRef redaction round-trip restore, block unsafe raw fallback (force Form mode when raw is unavailable), and preflight submitted-config SecretRefs before config write RPC persistence. (#58044) Thanks @joshavant.</li>
-<li>Config/Telegram: migrate removed <code>channels.telegram.groupMentionsOnly</code> into <code>channels.telegram.groups[\"*\"].requireMention</code> on load so legacy configs no longer crash at startup. (#55336) thanks @jameslcowan.</li>
-<li>Config/update: stop <code>openclaw doctor</code> write-backs from persisting plugin-injected channel defaults, so <code>openclaw update</code> no longer seeds config keys that later break service refresh validation. (#56834) Thanks @openperf.</li>
-<li>Control UI/agents: auto-load agent workspace files on initial Files panel open, and populate overview model/workspace/fallbacks from effective runtime agent metadata so defaulted models no longer show as <code>Not set</code>. (#56637) Thanks @dxsx84.</li>
-<li>Control UI/slash commands: make <code>/steer</code> and <code>/redirect</code> work from the chat command palette with visible pending state for active-run <code>/steer</code>, correct redirected-run tracking, and a single canonical <code>/steer</code> entry in the command menu. (#54625) Thanks @fuller-stack-dev.</li>
-<li>Cron/announce: preserve all deliverable text payloads for announce mode instead of collapsing to the last chunk, so multi-line cron reports deliver in full to Telegram forum topics.</li>
-<li>Cron/isolated sessions: carry the full live-session provider, model, and auth-profile selection across retry restarts so cron jobs with model overrides no longer fail or loop on mid-run model-switch requests. (#57972) Thanks @issaba1.</li>
-<li>Diffs/config: preserve schema-shaped plugin config parsing from <code>diffsPluginConfigSchema.safeParse()</code>, so direct callers keep <code>defaults</code> and <code>security</code> sections instead of receiving flattened tool defaults. (#57904) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
-<li>Diffs: fall back to plain text when <code>lang</code> hints are invalid during diff render and viewer hydration, so bad or stale language values no longer break the diff viewer. (#57902) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
-<li>Discord/voice: enforce the same guild channel and member allowlist checks on spoken voice ingress before transcription, so joined voice channels no longer accept speech from users outside the configured Discord access policy. Thanks @cyjhhh and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Docker/setup: force BuildKit for local image builds (including sandbox image builds) so <code>./docker-setup.sh</code> no longer fails on <code>RUN --mount=...</code> when hosts default to Docker's legacy builder. (#56681) Thanks @zhanghui-china.</li>
-<li>Docs/anchors: fix broken English docs links and make Mint anchor audits run against the English-source docs tree. (#57039) thanks @velvet-shark.</li>
-<li>Doctor/plugins: skip false Matrix legacy-helper warnings when no migration plans exist, and keep bundled <code>enabledByDefault</code> plugins in the gateway startup set. (#57931) Thanks @dinakars777.</li>
-<li>Exec approvals/macOS: unwrap <code>arch</code> and <code>xcrun</code> before deriving shell payloads and allow-always patterns, so wrapper approvals stay bound to the carried command instead of the outer carrier. Thanks @tdjackey and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Exec approvals: unwrap <code>caffeinate</code> and <code>sandbox-exec</code> before persisting allow-always trust so later shell payload changes still require a fresh approval. Thanks @tdjackey and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Exec/approvals: infer Discord and Telegram exec approvers from existing owner config when <code>execApprovals.approvers</code> is unset, extend the default approval window to 30 minutes, and clarify approval-unavailable guidance so approvals do not appear to silently disappear.</li>
-<li>Pi/TUI: flush message-boundary replies at <code>message_end</code> so turns stop looking stuck until the next nudge when the final reply was already ready. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Exec/approvals: keep <code>awk</code> and <code>sed</code> family binaries out of the low-risk <code>safeBins</code> fast path, and stop doctor profile scaffolding from treating them like ordinary custom filters. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Exec/env: block proxy, TLS, and Docker endpoint env overrides in host execution so request-scoped commands cannot silently reroute outbound traffic or trust attacker-supplied certificate settings. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab.</li>
-<li>Exec/env: block Python package index override variables from request-scoped host exec environment sanitization so package fetches cannot be redirected through a caller-supplied index. Thanks @nexrin and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Exec/node: stop gateway-side workdir fallback from rewriting explicit <code>host=node</code> cwd values to the gateway filesystem, so remote node exec approval and runs keep using the intended node-local directory. (#50961) Thanks @openperf.</li>
-<li>Exec/runtime: default implicit exec to <code>host=auto</code>, resolve that target to sandbox only when a sandbox runtime exists, keep explicit <code>host=sandbox</code> fail-closed without sandbox, and show <code>/exec</code> effective host state in runtime status/docs.</li>
-<li>Exec: fail closed when the implicit sandbox host has no sandbox runtime, and stop denied async approval followups from reusing prior command output from the same session. (#56800) Thanks @scoootscooob.</li>
-<li>Feishu/groups: keep quoted replies and topic bootstrap context aligned with group sender allowlists so only allowlisted thread messages seed agent context. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Gateway/attachments: offload large inbound images without leaking <code>media://</code> markers into text-only runs, preserve mixed attachment order for model input/transcripts, and fail closed when model image capability cannot be resolved. (#55513) Thanks @Syysean.</li>
-<li>Gateway/auth: keep shared-auth rate limiting active during WebSocket handshake attempts even when callers also send device-token candidates, so bogus device-token fields no longer suppress shared-secret brute-force tracking. Thanks @kexinoh and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Gateway/auth: reject mismatched browser <code>Origin</code> headers on trusted-proxy HTTP operator requests while keeping origin-less headless proxy clients working. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Gateway/device tokens: disconnect active device sessions after token rotation so newly rotated credentials revoke existing live connections immediately instead of waiting for those sockets to close naturally. Thanks @zsxsoft and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Gateway/health: carry webhook-vs-polling account mode from channel descriptors into runtime snapshots so passive channels like LINE and BlueBubbles skip false stale-socket health failures. (#47488) Thanks @karesansui-u.</li>
-<li>Gateway/pairing: restore QR bootstrap onboarding handoff so fresh <code>/pair qr</code> iPhone setup can auto-approve the initial node pairing, receive a reusable node device token, and stop retrying with spent bootstrap auth. (#58382) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
-<li>Gateway/OpenAI compatibility: accept flat Responses API function tool definitions on <code>/v1/responses</code> and preserve <code>strict</code> when normalizing hosted tools into the embedded runner, so spec-compliant clients like Codex no longer fail validation or silently lose strict tool enforcement. Thanks @malaiwah and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Gateway/OpenAI HTTP: restore default operator scopes for bearer-authenticated requests that omit <code>x-openclaw-scopes</code>, so headless <code>/v1/chat/completions</code> and session-history callers work again after the recent method-scope hardening. (#57596) Thanks @openperf.</li>
-<li>Gateway/plugins: scope plugin-auth HTTP route runtime clients to read-only access and keep gateway-authenticated plugin routes on write scope, so plugin-owned webhook handlers do not inherit write-capable runtime access by default. Thanks @davidluzsilva and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Gateway/SecretRef: resolve restart token drift checks with merged service/runtime env sources and hard-fail unsupported mutable SecretRef plus OAuth-profile combinations so restart warnings and policy enforcement match runtime behavior. (#58141) Thanks @joshavant.</li>
-<li>Gateway/tools HTTP: tighten HTTP tool-invoke authorization so owner-only tools stay off HTTP invoke paths. (#57773) Thanks @jacobtomlinson.</li>
-<li>Harden async approval followup delivery in webchat-only sessions (#57359) Thanks @joshavant.</li>
-<li>Heartbeat/auth: prevent exec-event heartbeat runs from inheriting owner-only tool access from the session delivery target, so node exec output stays on the non-owner tool surface even when the target session belongs to the owner. Thanks @AntAISecurityLab and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Hooks/config: accept runtime channel plugin ids in <code>hooks.mappings[].channel</code> (for example <code>feishu</code>) instead of rejecting non-core channels during config validation. (#56226) Thanks @AiKrai001.</li>
-<li>Hooks/session routing: rebind hook-triggered <code>agent:</code> session keys to the actual target agent before isolated dispatch so dedicated hook agents keep their own session-scoped tool and plugin identity. Thanks @kexinoh and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Host exec/env: block additional request-scoped env overrides that can redirect Docker endpoints, trust roots, compiler include paths, package resolution, or Python environment roots during approved host runs. Thanks @tdjackey and @vincentkoc.</li>
-<li>Image generation/build: write stable runtime alias files into <code>dist/</code> and route provider-auth runtime lookups through those aliases so image-generation providers keep resolving auth/runtime modules after rebuilds instead of crashing on missing hashed chunk files.</li>
-<li>iOS/Live Activities: mark the <code>ActivityKit</code> import in <code>LiveActivityManager.swift</code> as <code>@preconcurrency</code> so Xcode 26.4 / Swift 6 builds stop failing on strict concurrency checks. (#57180) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
-<li>LINE/ACP: add current-conversation binding and inbound binding-routing parity so <code>/acp spawn ... --thread here</code>, configured ACP bindings, and active conversation-bound ACP sessions work on LINE like the other conversation channels.</li>
-<li>LINE/markdown: preserve underscores inside Latin, Cyrillic, and CJK words when stripping markdown, while still removing standalone <code>_italic_</code> markers on the shared text-runtime path used by LINE and TTS. (#47465) Thanks @jackjin1997.</li>
-<li>Agents/failover: make overloaded same-provider retry count and retry delay configurable via <code>auth.cooldowns</code>, default to one retry with no delay, and document the model-fallback behavior.</li>

+            <description><![CDATA[<h2>OpenClaw 2026.3.24</h2>
+<h3>Breaking</h3>
+<h3>Changes</h3>
+<ul>
+<li>Gateway/OpenAI compatibility: add <code>/v1/models</code> and <code>/v1/embeddings</code>, and forward explicit model overrides through <code>/v1/chat/completions</code> and <code>/v1/responses</code> for broader client and RAG compatibility. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>Agents/tools: make <code>/tools</code> 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.</li>
+<li>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)</li>
+<li>Microsoft Teams: add message edit and delete support for sent messages, including in-thread fallbacks when no explicit target is provided. (#49925)</li>
+<li>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.</li>
+<li>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.</li>
+<li>Slack/interactive replies: restore rich reply parity for direct deliveries, auto-render simple trailing <code>Options:</code> lines as buttons/selects, improve Slack interactive setup defaults, and isolate reply controls from plugin interactive handlers. (#53389) Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
+<li>CLI/containers: add <code>--container</code> and <code>OPENCLAW_CONTAINER</code> to run <code>openclaw</code> commands inside a running Docker or Podman OpenClaw container. (#52651) Thanks @sallyom.</li>
+<li>Discord/auto threads: add optional <code>autoThreadName: "generated"</code> 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.</li>
+<li>Plugins/hooks: add <code>before_dispatch</code> with canonical inbound metadata and route handled replies through the normal final-delivery path, preserving TTS and routed delivery semantics. (#50444) Thanks @gfzhx.</li>
+<li>Control UI/agents: convert agent workspace file rows to expandable <code><details></code> with lazy-loaded inline markdown preview, and add comprehensive <code>.sidebar-markdown</code> styles for headings, lists, code blocks, tables, blockquotes, and details/summary elements. (#53411) Thanks @BunsDev.</li>
+<li>Control UI/markdown preview: restyle the agent workspace file preview dialog with a frosted backdrop, sized panel, and styled header, and integrate <code>@create-markdown/preview</code> 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.</li>
+<li>macOS app/config: replace horizontal pill-based subsection navigation with a collapsible tree sidebar using disclosure chevrons and indented subsection rows. (#53411) Thanks @BunsDev.</li>
+<li>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 <code>openclaw skills info</code> output. (#53411) Thanks @BunsDev.</li>
+<li>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.</li>
+<li>Control UI/agents: add a "Not set" placeholder to the default agent model selector dropdown. (#53411) Thanks @BunsDev.</li>
+<li>Runtime/install: lower the supported Node 22 floor to <code>22.14+</code> while continuing to recommend Node 24, so npm installs and self-updates do not strand Node 22.14 users on older releases.</li>
+<li>CLI/update: preflight the target npm package <code>engines.node</code> before <code>openclaw update</code> runs a global package install, so outdated Node runtimes fail with a clear upgrade message instead of attempting an unsupported latest release.</li>
+</ul>
+<h3>Fixes</h3>
+<ul>
+<li>Outbound media/local files: align outbound media access with the configured fs policy so host-local files and inbound-media paths keep sending when <code>workspaceOnly</code> is off, while strict workspace-only agents remain sandboxed.</li>
+<li>Security/sandbox media dispatch: close the <code>mediaUrl</code>/<code>fileUrl</code> alias bypass so outbound tool and message actions cannot escape media-root restrictions. (#54034)</li>
+<li>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.</li>
+<li>Docker/setup: avoid the pre-start <code>openclaw-cli</code> shared-network namespace loop by routing setup-time onboard/config writes through <code>openclaw-gateway</code>, so fresh Docker installs stop failing before the gateway comes up. (#53385) Thanks @amsminn.</li>
+<li>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.</li>
+<li>Embedded runs/secrets: stop unresolved <code>SecretRef</code> config from crashing embedded agent runs by falling back to the resolved runtime snapshot when needed. Fixes #45838.</li>
+<li>WhatsApp/groups: track recent gateway-sent message IDs and suppress only matching group echoes, preserving owner <code>/status</code>, <code>/new</code>, and <code>/activation</code> commands from linked-account <code>fromMe</code> traffic. (#53624) Thanks @w-sss.</li>
+<li>WhatsApp/reply-to-bot detection: restore implicit group reply detection by unwrapping <code>botInvokeMessage</code> payloads and reading <code>selfLid</code> from <code>creds.json</code>, so reply-based mentions reach the bot again in linked-account group chats.</li>
+<li>Telegram/forum topics: recover <code>#General</code> topic <code>1</code> routing when Telegram omits forum metadata, including native commands, interactive callbacks, inbound message context, and fallback error replies. (#53699) thanks @huntharo</li>
+<li>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.</li>
+<li>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.</li>
+<li>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.</li>
+<li>Telegram/outbound errors: preserve actionable 403 membership/block/kick details and treat <code>bot not a member</code> as a permanent delivery failure so Telegram sends stop retrying doomed chats. (#53635) Thanks @w-sss.</li>
+<li>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 <code>PHOTO_INVALID_DIMENSIONS</code>. (#52545) Thanks @hnshah.</li>
+<li>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.</li>

+            <description><![CDATA[<h2>OpenClaw 2026.3.23</h2>
+<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>

-# TaskFlow
-
-TaskFlow is the flow orchestration substrate that sits above [background tasks](/automation/tasks). It manages durable multi-step flows with their own state, revision tracking, and sync semantics while individual tasks remain the unit of detached work.
-
-## Sync modes
-
-TaskFlow supports two sync modes:
-
-- **Managed** — TaskFlow owns the lifecycle end-to-end, creating and driving tasks as flow steps progress.
-- **Mirrored** — TaskFlow observes externally created tasks and keeps flow state in sync without taking ownership of task creation.
-
-## Durable state and revision tracking
-
-Each flow persists its own state and tracks revisions so progress survives gateway restarts. Revision tracking enables conflict detection when multiple sources attempt to advance the same flow.
-
-## CLI commands
-
-```bash
-# List active and recent flows
-openclaw flows list
-
-# Show details for a specific flow
-openclaw flows show <lookup>
-
-# Cancel a running flow
-openclaw flows cancel <lookup>
-```
-
-- `openclaw flows list` — shows tracked flows with status and sync mode
-- `openclaw flows show <lookup>` — inspect one flow by flow id or lookup key
-- `openclaw flows cancel <lookup>` — cancel a running flow and its active tasks
-
-## How flows relate to tasks
-
-Flows coordinate tasks, not replace them. A single flow may drive multiple background tasks over its lifetime. Use `openclaw tasks` to inspect individual task records and `openclaw flows` to inspect the orchestrating flow.

 Top-level `channels.matrix` values act as defaults for named accounts unless an account overrides them.
-You can scope inherited room entries to one Matrix account with `groups.<room>.account` (or legacy `rooms.<room>.account`).
-Entries without `account` stay shared across all Matrix accounts, and entries with `account: "default"` still work when the default account is configured directly on top-level `channels.matrix.*`.
-Partial shared auth defaults do not create a separate implicit default account by themselves. OpenClaw only synthesizes the top-level `default` account when that default has fresh auth (`homeserver` plus `accessToken`, or `homeserver` plus `userId` and `password`); named accounts can still stay discoverable from `homeserver` plus `userId` when cached credentials satisfy auth later.
 Set `defaultAccount` when you want OpenClaw to prefer one named Matrix account for implicit routing, probing, and CLI operations.
 If you configure multiple named accounts, set `defaultAccount` or pass `--account <id>` for CLI commands that rely on implicit account selection.
 Pass `--account <id>` to `openclaw matrix verify ...` and `openclaw matrix devices ...` when you want to override that implicit selection for one command.

-# QQ Bot
-
-QQ Bot connects to OpenClaw via the official QQ Bot API (WebSocket gateway). The
-plugin supports C2C private chat, group @messages, and guild channel messages with
-rich media (images, voice, video, files).
-
-Status: bundled channel plugin. Direct messages, group chats, guild channels, and
-media are supported. Reactions and threads are not supported.
-
-## Bundled with OpenClaw
-
-Current OpenClaw installs bundle QQ Bot. You do not need a separate
-`openclaw plugins install` step for normal setup.
-
-## Setup
-
-1. Go to the [QQ Open Platform](https://q.qq.com/) and scan the QR code with your
-   phone QQ to register / log in.
-2. Click **Create Bot** to create a new QQ bot.
-3. Find **AppID** and **AppSecret** on the bot's settings page and copy them.
-
-> AppSecret is not stored in plaintext — if you leave the page without saving it,
-> you'll have to regenerate a new one.
-
-4. Add the channel:
-
-```bash
-openclaw channels add --channel qqbot --token "AppID:AppSecret"
-```
-
-5. Restart the Gateway.
-
-Interactive setup paths:
-
-```bash
-openclaw channels add
-openclaw configure --section channels
-```
-
-## Configure
-
-Minimal config:
-
-```json5
-{
-  channels: {
-    qqbot: {
-      enabled: true,
-      appId: "YOUR_APP_ID",
-      clientSecret: "YOUR_APP_SECRET",
-    },
-  },
-}
-```
-
-Default-account env vars:
-
-- `QQBOT_APP_ID`
-- `QQBOT_CLIENT_SECRET`
-
-File-backed AppSecret:
-
-```json5
-{
-  channels: {
-    qqbot: {
-      enabled: true,
-      appId: "YOUR_APP_ID",
-      clientSecretFile: "/path/to/qqbot-secret.txt",
-    },
-  },
-}
-```
-
-Notes:
-
-- Env fallback applies to the default QQ Bot account only.
-- `openclaw channels add --channel qqbot --token-file ...` provides the
-  AppSecret only; the AppID must already be set in config or `QQBOT_APP_ID`.
-- `clientSecret` also accepts SecretRef input, not just a plaintext string.
-
-### Multi-account setup
-
-Run multiple QQ bots under a single OpenClaw instance:
-
-```json5
-{
-  channels: {
-    qqbot: {
-      enabled: true,
-      appId: "111111111",
-      clientSecret: "secret-of-bot-1",
-      accounts: {
-        bot2: {
-          enabled: true,
-          appId: "222222222",
-          clientSecret: "secret-of-bot-2",
-        },
-      },
-    },
-  },
-}
-```
-
-Each account launches its own WebSocket connection and maintains an independent
-token cache (isolated by `appId`).
-
-Add a second bot via CLI:
-
-```bash
-openclaw channels add --channel qqbot --account bot2 --token "222222222:secret-of-bot-2"
-```
-
-### Voice (STT / TTS)
-
-STT and TTS support two-level configuration with priority fallback:
-
-| Setting | Plugin-specific      | Framework fallback            |
-| ------- | -------------------- | ----------------------------- |
-| STT     | `channels.qqbot.stt` | `tools.media.audio.models[0]` |
-| TTS     | `channels.qqbot.tts` | `messages.tts`                |
-
-```json5
-{
-  channels: {
-    qqbot: {
-      stt: {
-        provider: "your-provider",
-        model: "your-stt-model",
-      },
-      tts: {
-        provider: "your-provider",
-        model: "your-tts-model",
-        voice: "your-voice",
-      },
-    },
-  },
-}
-```
-
-Set `enabled: false` on either to disable.
-
-Outbound audio upload/transcode behavior can also be tuned with
-`channels.qqbot.audioFormatPolicy`:
-
-- `sttDirectFormats`
-- `uploadDirectFormats`
-- `transcodeEnabled`
-
-## Target formats
-
-| Format                     | Description        |
-| -------------------------- | ------------------ |
-| `qqbot:c2c:OPENID`         | Private chat (C2C) |
-| `qqbot:group:GROUP_OPENID` | Group chat         |
-| `qqbot:channel:CHANNEL_ID` | Guild channel      |
-
-> Each bot has its own set of user OpenIDs. An OpenID received by Bot A **cannot**
-> be used to send messages via Bot B.
-
-## Slash commands
-
-Built-in commands intercepted before the AI queue:
-
-| Command        | Description                          |
-| -------------- | ------------------------------------ |
-| `/bot-ping`    | Latency test                         |
-| `/bot-version` | Show the OpenClaw framework version  |
-| `/bot-help`    | List all commands                    |
-| `/bot-upgrade` | Show the QQBot upgrade guide link    |
-| `/bot-logs`    | Export recent gateway logs as a file |
-
-Append `?` to any command for usage help (for example `/bot-upgrade ?`).
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-- **Bot replies "gone to Mars":** credentials not configured or Gateway not started.
-- **No inbound messages:** verify `appId` and `clientSecret` are correct, and the
-  bot is enabled on the QQ Open Platform.
-- **Setup with `--token-file` still shows unconfigured:** `--token-file` only sets
-  the AppSecret. You still need `appId` in config or `QQBOT_APP_ID`.
-- **Proactive messages not arriving:** QQ may intercept bot-initiated messages if
-  the user hasn't interacted recently.
-- **Voice not transcribed:** ensure STT is configured and the provider is reachable.

-## Exec approvals in Slack
-
-Exec approval prompts can route natively through Slack using interactive buttons and interactions, instead of falling back to the Web UI or terminal. Approver authorization is enforced: only users identified as approvers can approve or deny requests through Slack.
-
-This uses the same shared approval button surface as other channels. When `interactivity` is enabled in your Slack app settings, approval prompts render as Block Kit buttons directly in the conversation.
-
-Config path:
-
-- `channels.slack.execApprovals.enabled`
-- `channels.slack.execApprovals.approvers` (optional; falls back to `commands.ownerAllowFrom` when possible)
-- `channels.slack.execApprovals.target` (`dm` | `channel` | `both`, default: `dm`)
-- `agentFilter`, `sessionFilter`
-
-Slack auto-enables native exec approvals when `enabled` is unset or `"auto"` and at least one
-approver resolves. Set `enabled: false` to disable Slack as a native approval client explicitly.
-Set `enabled: true` to force native approvals on when approvers resolve.
-
-Default behavior with no explicit Slack exec approval config:
-
-```json5
-{
-  commands: {
-    ownerAllowFrom: ["slack:U12345678"],
-  },
-}
-```
-
-Explicit Slack-native config is only needed when you want to override approvers, add filters, or
-opt into origin-chat delivery:
-
-```json5
-{
-  channels: {
-    slack: {
-      execApprovals: {
-        enabled: true,
-        approvers: ["U12345678"],
-        target: "both",
-      },
-    },
-  },
-}
-```
-
-Shared `approvals.exec` forwarding is separate. Use it only when approval prompts must also route
-to other chats or explicit out-of-band targets.
-
-Same-chat `/approve` also works in Slack channels and DMs that already support commands. See [Exec approvals](/tools/exec-approvals) for the full approval forwarding model.

 - If a required auth SecretRef is unresolved in this command path, `daemon status --json` reports `rpc.authWarning` when probe connectivity/auth fails; pass `--token`/`--password` explicitly or resolve the secret source first.
 - If the probe succeeds, unresolved auth-ref warnings are suppressed to avoid false positives.
