fix(ui): replace Manual RPC text input with sorted method dropdown by rixau · Pull Request #14967 · openclaw/openclaw

rixau · 2026-02-12T20:38:30Z

Summary

Replace the free-text method input in Debug > Manual RPC with a <select> dropdown populated from hello.features.methods
Stack the method and params fields vertically instead of side-by-side (stack instead of form-grid)
Add a disabled "Select a method..." placeholder when no method is chosen

Why

The gateway exposes a known, finite set of RPC methods (~80+ base methods plus channel plugin methods). These are already sent to the client in the WebSocket hello message via features.methods. The current free-text input requires users to guess or look up method names in source code, which defeats the purpose of a debug panel.

The side-by-side layout also causes the text input to sit far below its label on narrower viewports.

Changes

ui/src/ui/views/debug.ts — Add methods: string[] prop, replace <input> with <select>, change form-grid to stack
ui/src/ui/app-render.ts — Pass sorted hello.features.methods array to renderDebug

Test plan

pnpm build passes
pnpm check passes (format + types + lint)
pnpm test — 882 passed
Tested locally: dropdown renders all gateway methods alphabetically, RPC calls work correctly

AI Disclosure

AI-assisted (Claude)
Lightly tested — verified build/check/test pass and visually confirmed in local Control UI
I understand what the code does: wires hello.features.methods into a <select> element and changes the CSS layout class

Greptile Overview

Greptile Summary

This PR updates the Debug � Manual RPC panel to use a method dropdown populated from the gateway hello payload (hello.features.methods), and adjusts the layout from a side-by-side grid to a vertical stack. The method list is passed down from ui/src/ui/app-render.ts into renderDebug in ui/src/ui/views/debug.ts, sorted client-side.

Confidence Score: 4/5

This PR is close to safe to merge, with one UI state management issue to address.
Changes are small and localized, but the new mixes a controlled .value binding with explicit selected attributes on options, which can cause the displayed selection to desync from state on rerender. ui/src/ui/views/debug.ts Last reviewed commit: 7c5b68b (2/5) Greptile learns from your feedback when you react with thumbs up/down!

The method field was a free-text input despite methods being a known finite set sent via the hello message. Replace with a <select> dropdown populated from hello.features.methods and stack the form fields vertically for better layout.

Remove ?selected and selected attributes from <option> elements to avoid conflicting with .value binding on the <select>.
