 - LINE/Inline directives auth: gate directive parsing (`/model`, `/think`, `/verbose`, `/reasoning`, `/queue`) on resolved authorization (`command.isAuthorizedSender`) so `commands.allowFrom`-authorized LINE senders are not silently stripped when raw `CommandAuthorized` is unset. Landed from contributor PR #27248 by @kevinWangSheng. (#27240)
 - Web tools/Proxy: route `web_search` provider HTTP calls (Brave, Perplexity, xAI, Gemini, Kimi), redirect resolution, and `web_fetch` through a shared proxy-aware SSRF guard path so gateway installs behind `HTTP_PROXY`/`HTTPS_PROXY`/`ALL_PROXY` no longer fail with transport `fetch failed` errors. (#27430) thanks @kevinWangSheng.
 - CLI/Gateway status: force local `gateway status` probe host to `127.0.0.1` for `bind=lan` so co-located probes do not trip non-loopback plaintext WebSocket checks. (#26997) thanks @chikko80.
+- CLI/Gateway auth: align `gateway run --auth` parsing/help text with supported gateway auth modes by accepting `none` and `trusted-proxy` (in addition to `token`/`password`) for CLI overrides. (#27469) thanks @s1korrrr.
 - CLI/Daemon status TLS probe: use `wss://` and forward local TLS certificate fingerprint for TLS-enabled gateway daemon probes so `openclaw daemon status` works with `gateway.bind=lan` + `gateway.tls.enabled=true`. (#24234) thanks @liuy.
 - Gateway/Bind visibility: emit a startup warning when binding to non-loopback addresses so operators get explicit exposure guidance in runtime logs. (#25397) thanks @let5sne.
 - Podman/Default bind: change `run-openclaw-podman.sh` default gateway bind from `lan` to `loopback` and document explicit LAN opt-in with Control UI origin configuration. (#27491) thanks @robbyczgw-cla.
