 - Delivery/dedupe: trim completed direct-cron delivery cache correctly and keep mirrored transcript dedupe active even when transcript files contain malformed lines. (#44666) thanks @frankekn.
 - CLI/thinking help: add the missing `xhigh` level hints to `openclaw cron add`, `openclaw cron edit`, and `openclaw agent` so the help text matches the levels already accepted at runtime. (#44819) Thanks @kiki830621.
 - Agents/Anthropic replay: drop replayed assistant thinking blocks for native Anthropic and Bedrock Claude providers so persisted follow-up turns no longer fail on stored thinking blocks. (#44843) Thanks @jmcte.
+- Docs/Brave pricing: escape literal dollar signs in Brave Search cost text so the docs render the free credit and per-request pricing correctly. (#44989) Thanks @keelanfh.

 ## Notes
 
 - OpenClaw uses the Brave **Search** plan. If you have a legacy subscription (e.g. the original Free plan with 2,000 queries/month), it remains valid but does not include newer features like LLM Context or higher rate limits.
-- Each Brave plan includes **$5/month in free credit** (renewing). The Search plan costs $5 per 1,000 requests, so the credit covers 1,000 queries/month. Set your usage limit in the Brave dashboard to avoid unexpected charges. See the [Brave API portal](https://brave.com/search/api/) for current plans.

See the [Brave API portal](https://brave.com/search/api/) for current plans.
 - The Search plan includes the LLM Context endpoint and AI inference rights. Storing results to train or tune models requires a plan with explicit storage rights. See the Brave [Terms of Service](https://api-dashboard.search.brave.com/terms-of-service).
 - Results are cached for 15 minutes by default (configurable via `cacheTtlMinutes`).
