I’m taking this through trace, fix, remote proof, fresh autoreview, and commit. I’m using the repository’s `openclaw-testing` skill for the validation lane and `autoreview` for the mandatory pre-commit review; I’ll first confirm the task branch/worktree and warm the trusted remote test backend while I inspect the failure path.

The delegated Blacksmith backend is unavailable because this host is not authenticated to the OpenClaw org. Per the testing runbook, I’m switching the same trusted maintainer checkout to the coordinator-backed AWS lane and will report that backend explicitly; no local test fallback is being used.

The trace has isolated the ownership bug: `prepareSecretsRuntimeSnapshot` sends enabled plugin config SecretRefs through the generic plugin collector before `resolveRuntimeWebTools` can decide whether web search is disabled or which provider wins. The web resolver already has the correct selection semantics and active-provider failure behavior; the fix is to stop the generic collector from pre-resolving web-provider credential subtrees for plugins that actually declare web search/fetch contracts, leaving those refs exclusively to the web runtime resolver.

The direct AWS fallback is also unavailable: this host has neither broker authentication nor AWS credentials/instance role. The runbook permits a narrow, explicitly reported local fallback when Testbox is unavailable, so I’ll use the repository’s linked-worktree Node test harness only for the focused files and keep broader static proof lightweight.

The focused harness found this task checkout has no `node_modules`. The repository’s missing-dependency rule requires one frozen install and one retry, so I’m doing that in the task checkout; if installation fails, I’ll preserve the first actionable error rather than weakening the proof.

The focused regression now passes: disabled and non-selected provider refs remain unresolved without blocking snapshot preparation, while the selected provider’s unresolved ref still throws the existing `WEB_SEARCH_KEY_UNRESOLVED_NO_FALLBACK` error. I’m tightening the diff now, then I’ll run targeted lint/static checks and the mandatory fresh autoreview before committing.

The mandatory autoreview is still active and inspecting the collector-to-provider handoff; its live interim assessment has no findings so far, but I’m waiting for the helper’s validated final result before treating the review gate as clean.

Autoreview found one valid scope regression: I had generalized the exemption to `webFetch`, whose disabled path short-circuits before producing the same diagnostics. That surface is outside this bug and has different control flow, so I’m narrowing the fix to declared `webSearchProviders` only, then rerunning focused proof and autoreview.

The narrowed patch is clean on the second autoreview: no accepted/actionable findings. Focused tests, targeted lint, formatting, and `git diff --check` are green; I’m committing exactly the three task files now, without pushing or opening a PR.

Implemented and committed the fix on `abs/inactive-web-secretref-command`.

Root cause: the generic plugin SecretRef collector resolved enabled plugin credentials before web-search provider selection. Thus disabled or non-selected provider refs could abort snapshot preparation. Web-search credential paths now remain owned by the web runtime resolver, which resolves only the enabled, selected provider.

Changed:

- `src/plugins/config-contracts.ts:15` — propagates capability contracts with config metadata.
- `src/secrets/runtime-config-collectors-plugins.ts:127` — defers declared `webSearch` provider credentials to provider selection.
- `src/secrets/runtime-core-snapshots.test.ts:285` — regressions for disabled, non-selected, and actively selected providers.

Validation:

- Focused Vitest: 4 files, 36 tests passed.
- Targeted `oxfmt` and `oxlint`: passed.
- `git diff --check`: passed.
- Final autoreview: clean, no actionable findings.
- Remote Testbox/AWS proof was unavailable because this host lacks Blacksmith org authentication, Crabbox broker authentication, and AWS credentials. The documented narrow local fallback was used after `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile`.

I’m using the requested `autoreview` skill against the committed task change, so the target will be commit `HEAD` rather than an empty local-worktree review. I’ll report the structured findings exactly and won’t mutate the branch unless a verified in-scope blocker appears.

The commit review is still healthy and actively reading downstream provider-resolution paths. Its interim structured state has no findings; I’m waiting for the helper’s final validated exit rather than treating the preliminary output as complete.

Autoreview passed cleanly for commit `7efa9c9123b59ce47ca287b6e4d56efd4577be87`.

- Command: `.agents/skills/autoreview/scripts/autoreview --mode commit --commit HEAD --stream-engine-output`
- Result: no accepted/actionable findings
- Correctness: patch is correct, confidence `0.88`
- Prior proof: 36 focused tests passed, targeted lint/format and `git diff --check` passed
- No changes made; branch remains unpushed and one commit ahead of `origin/main`

I’ll publish the committed task branch and open a takeover-ready PR with the repository template and exact proof. I’m using the required `agent-transcript` skill first to determine whether a sanitized Codex transcript should be offered or attached; then I’ll verify live GitHub state, push, and create the PR without adding unsolicited labels.

A high-confidence local Codex session was found for this fix. The skill requires your consent before any sanitized transcript is included; I can still prepare the remote branch now while leaving the PR body undecided.

Branch pushed. Include a redacted agent transcript in the PR? It helps reviewers and prioritization; I can preview it locally first if you prefer.

OK, include a redacted transcript

[assistant]
I’m applying the `agent-transcript` skill now: rendering the selected local session through its redaction filter, checking the sanitized output for task-only scope, and appending it to the completed PR template before creation. Raw logs will not be uploaded.
