Summary

  • Fixes [Bug]: 2026.5.19 Discord shows failed file reads in chat #85310.
  • Aligns scheduled heartbeat response-tool selection with group/channel messages.groupChat.visibleReplies policy.
  • Includes model-specific heartbeat runtime resolution so agents.defaults.models[model].agentRuntime.id = "codex" activates message-tool-only heartbeat delivery.

Root Cause

Scheduled heartbeat runs decided whether to force the heartbeat response tool before carrying forward the resolved delivery chat type or model-specific runtime policy. That meant a group/channel setup using messages.groupChat.visibleReplies = "message_tool", or a model-specific Codex runtime override, could still run with the legacy HEARTBEAT_OK prompt and no sourceReplyDeliveryMode override. Downstream dispatch already suppresses text-only failed tool output when sourceReplyDeliveryMode is message_tool_only; the heartbeat path was not consistently entering that runtime-enforced mode.

Why This Is Safe

  • The change only affects heartbeat prompt/delivery mode selection for already-configured message-tool-only or Codex-runtime heartbeat cases.
  • Existing automatic heartbeat behavior remains unchanged when visible replies are automatic and no Codex runtime policy applies.
  • Model-specific non-Codex runtime config continues to override broader default Codex heartbeat mode, with regression coverage.
  • The fix reuses existing runtime policy resolution and existing dispatch suppression rather than adding channel-specific string filtering.

Security And Runtime Controls

  • Existing send policy checks are unchanged.
  • Existing message-tool availability/profile policy is unchanged.
  • Existing dispatch-side message_tool_only suppression for text-only failed tool output is unchanged.
  • No new channel credentials, allowlist behavior, provider auth, or tool permissions are introduced.

Real Behavior Proof

Behavior addressed: heartbeat scheduled turns now honor group/channel message_tool reply policy and model-specific Codex runtime config, so failed internal tool/file-read messages stay private.

Real environment tested: local OpenClaw source checkout on this PR branch, with a temporary in-memory config that enabled only channels.discord. Telegram, Slack, Matrix, Signal, iMessage, MS Teams, and WhatsApp were disabled by omission. Discord token, guild ID, channel ID, and message IDs are redacted below.

After fix, OpenClaw sent a real heartbeat notification into the configured Discord channel and the proof script read the channel back through the Discord API:

Discord message URL for manual verification: https://discord.com/channels/1481298384714338398/1481298387058950239/1507377049021448192

A local browser screenshot was also captured from that URL (discord-issue-85310-proof.png) showing the proof message in #general on the openclaw test server Discord. The screenshot is not committed to the repo.

    "leakedInternalMarkers": []
  }
}

Observed result after fix: the real Discord channel received only the expected OpenClaw heartbeat proof message. The heartbeat runner entered message_tool_only runtime mode, used the heartbeat response tool prompt instead of the legacy HEARTBEAT_OK prompt, and the Discord readback found no print lines ... failed, HEARTBEAT_OK, or heartbeat_respond internal markers in the new visible channel output.

Tests

  • git diff --check

  • pnpm check:changed
  • pnpm build

Out Of Scope

  • No Discord-specific sanitizer or output string filtering.
  • No changes to channel allowlists, credentials, send policy, or tool permission policy.
  • No broad rewrite of the heartbeat runner or dispatch pipeline.

Codex review: needs maintainer review before merge.

Latest ClawSweeper review: 2026-05-22 22:46 UTC / May 22, 2026, 6:46 PM ET.

Workflow note: Future ClawSweeper reviews update this same comment in place.

How this review workflow works
  • ClawSweeper keeps one durable marker-backed review comment per issue or PR.
  • Re-runs edit this comment so the latest verdict, findings, and automation markers stay together instead of adding duplicate bot comments.
  • A fresh review can be triggered by eligible @clawsweeper re-review comments, exact-item GitHub events, scheduled/background review runs, or manual workflow dispatch.
  • PR/issue authors and users with repository write access can comment @clawsweeper re-review or @clawsweeper re-run on an open PR or issue to request a fresh review only.
  • Maintainers can also comment @clawsweeper review to request a fresh review only.
  • Fresh-review commands do not start repair, autofix, rebase, CI repair, or automerge.
  • Maintainer-only repair and merge flows require explicit commands such as @clawsweeper autofix, @clawsweeper automerge, @clawsweeper fix ci, or @clawsweeper address review.
  • Maintainers can comment @clawsweeper explain to ask for more context, or @clawsweeper stop to stop active automation.

Summary
The PR threads heartbeat delivery chat type into response-tool selection, resolves configured provider/model runtime policy for heartbeat runs, and adds regression coverage for group message-tool and model-runtime cases.

Reproducibility: yes. at source level: current main chooses heartbeat response-tool mode before carrying delivery chat type or configured model-runtime policy, while existing dispatch code already enforces group/channel message_tool delivery. I did not live-replay the failing current-main Discord scenario in this read-only review.

PR rating
Overall: 🐚 platinum hermit
Proof: 🦞 diamond lobster
Patch quality: 🐚 platinum hermit
Summary: Good focused PR with strong live Discord proof and regression coverage; the remaining risk is maintainer review of generic heartbeat delivery policy.

Rank-up moves:

  • none
What the crustacean ranks mean
  • 🦀 challenger crab: rare, exceptional readiness with strong proof, clean implementation, and convincing validation.
  • 🦞 diamond lobster: very strong readiness with only minor maintainer review expected.
  • 🐚 platinum hermit: good normal PR, likely mergeable with ordinary maintainer review.
  • 🦐 gold shrimp: useful signal, but proof or patch confidence is still limited.
  • 🦪 silver shellfish: thin signal; proof, validation, or implementation needs work.
  • 🧂 unranked krab: not merge-ready because proof is missing/unusable or there are serious correctness or safety concerns.
  • 🌊 off-meta tidepool: rating does not apply to this item.

Shiny media proof means a screenshot, video, or linked artifact directly shows the changed behavior. Runtime, network, CSP, and security claims still need visible diagnostics.

Real behavior proof
Sufficient (live_output): Sufficient: the PR body, contributor comment, and maintainer comment include redacted live Discord readback showing message_tool_only heartbeat delivery and no leaked internal markers after the patch.

Risk before merge

  • The PR changes when scheduled heartbeat turns force message_tool_only, so a bad chat-type or runtime-precedence decision could either suppress intended automatic heartbeat output or leave internal tool failures visible in channel targets.
  • The maintainer live proof used a deterministic agent response rather than a real OpenAI/Codex network call, so it proves heartbeat policy selection plus real Discord delivery/readback, not the full provider runtime path.
  • The heartbeat path still carries legacy whole-agent runtime compatibility in its precedence chain; maintainers should confirm that precedence remains intentional while adding provider/model runtime policy handling.

Maintainer options:

  1. Land after heartbeat policy review (recommended)
    Maintainers can land once they verify the source-level chat-type and runtime-precedence rules and accept the narrow cross-channel delivery-policy risk.
  2. Add a precedence regression first
    If maintainers want extra confidence, add a focused test for provider/model runtime policy precedence over legacy per-agent runtime compatibility in heartbeat mode before merge.
  3. Fold into broader leak work
    If maintainers want one coordinated output-leak fix, pause this PR and track the heartbeat-specific repair inside the broader internal-output leak review.

Next step before merge
Remaining action is maintainer review and landing judgment for a message-delivery policy change; no narrow automated repair is identified.

Security
Cleared: Cleared: the diff narrows an output-privacy leak and does not touch credentials, authz, CI, lockfiles, package resolution, or new code-execution surfaces.

Review details

Best possible solution:

Land the narrow heartbeat-policy fix after maintainers confirm the generic scheduled-heartbeat mode-selection rules preserve automatic and non-Codex behavior while closing the Discord leak path.

Do we have a high-confidence way to reproduce the issue?

Yes at source level: current main chooses heartbeat response-tool mode before carrying delivery chat type or configured model-runtime policy, while existing dispatch code already enforces group/channel message_tool delivery. I did not live-replay the failing current-main Discord scenario in this read-only review.

Is this the best way to solve the issue?

Yes: the PR reuses existing chat-type inference, harness policy resolution, heartbeat response-tool prompting, and message_tool_only dispatch suppression instead of adding Discord-specific filtering. The remaining question is maintainer acceptance of the generic scheduled-heartbeat delivery behavior.

Label changes:

  • add proof: sufficient: Contributor real behavior proof is sufficient. Sufficient: the PR body, contributor comment, and maintainer comment include redacted live Discord readback showing message_tool_only heartbeat delivery and no leaked internal markers after the patch.

Label justifications:

  • P1: The PR addresses an active Discord scheduled-heartbeat leak where internal failed file-read output can appear in user-visible chat.
  • merge-risk: 🚨 message-delivery: Changing when heartbeats force message_tool_only can affect whether scheduled heartbeat output is delivered, suppressed, or leaked across channel targets.
  • rating: 🐚 platinum hermit: Current PR rating is 🐚 platinum hermit because proof is 🦞 diamond lobster, patch quality is 🐚 platinum hermit, and Good focused PR with strong live Discord proof and regression coverage; the remaining risk is maintainer review of generic heartbeat delivery policy.

What I checked:

  • PR heartbeat policy diff: The PR adds configured harness-policy resolution and makes heartbeat response-tool selection honor group/channel visibleReplies when a delivery chat type is available. (src/infra/heartbeat-runner.ts:451, ad2f5cda1c2d)
  • PR delivery-target diff: The PR carries the resolved heartbeat chat type through OutboundTarget so the heartbeat runner can distinguish group/channel policy from direct-message policy. (src/infra/outbound/targets.ts:240, ad2f5cda1c2d)
  • Current-main source gap: Current main selects heartbeat response-tool mode from only top-level messages.visibleReplies or broad Codex runtime state, before the PR adds delivery chat-type and configured model-runtime policy handling. (src/infra/heartbeat-runner.ts:465, f2d4f9328cd0)
  • Existing dispatch contract: The normal reply dispatcher already maps group/channel messages.groupChat.visibleReplies to message_tool_only and suppresses automatic source delivery in that mode, so the PR is reusing an existing delivery contract. (src/auto-reply/reply/source-reply-delivery-mode.ts:64, f2d4f9328cd0)
  • Regression coverage: The PR adds tests for group message-tool heartbeat prompting, model-specific Codex runtime prompting, and non-Codex model runtime overriding default Codex heartbeat mode. (src/infra/heartbeat-runner.tool-response.test.ts:246, ad2f5cda1c2d)
  • Maintainer live proof: A maintainer comment reports direct AWS Crabbox Discord proof on this PR branch, with sourceReplyDeliveryMode=message_tool_only, heartbeat_respond prompt selection, one visible Discord message, and zero leaked internal markers. (ad2f5cda1c2d)

Hatch command

Comment @clawsweeper hatch when this PR is hatchable.

Hatchability rules:

  • Merged PRs are hatchable.
  • Open PRs are hatchable when they are status: 👀 ready for maintainer look, status: 🚀 automerge armed, or labeled clawsweeper:automerge.
  • Closed unmerged PRs are hatchable only when one of those hatchable labels is still present in the durable record.

Rarity: 🌱 uncommon.
Trait: sparkles near resolved comments.

What is this egg doing here?
  • Eggs appear after the PR passes real-behavior proof. It is here for vibes, not verdicts: it does not change labels, ratings, merge decisions, or automation.
  • The shell reacts to review momentum: open follow-up work warms it up, re-review makes it wobble, and a clean final review lets it hatch.
  • Hatchability usually comes from sufficient real-behavior proof, no blocking P0/P1/P2 findings, no security attention needed, and clean correctness. A merged PR is already final, so merge makes the egg hatchable independently.
  • The hatch is seeded from this repository and PR number, so the same PR keeps the same creature; the reviewed head SHA can only change safe visual details.
  • Rarity is just collectible sparkle: 🥚 common, 🌱 uncommon, 💎 rare, ✨ glimmer, and 🌈 legendary.

Maintainer live E2E proof for #85310 / this PR:

Behavior addressed: scheduled heartbeat in a Discord channel honors group/channel messages.groupChat.visibleReplies = "message_tool" and model-specific agents.defaults.models["openai/gpt-5.5"].agentRuntime.id = "codex", entering message_tool_only instead of leaking internal failed-tool output.

Real environment tested: direct AWS Crabbox, provider aws, lease cbx_558469d8cded, run run_d34c6046ba90. The run leased a Convex QA credential of kind discord with CI role, seeded a real heartbeat session targeting the leased Discord channel, ran runHeartbeatOnce from this PR branch plus the latest test commit, then read the Discord channel back through the Discord API. Tokens, guild/channel ids, and message ids were redacted.

Exact steps or command run after this patch: Crabbox synced the current PR checkout, installed dependencies with pnpm install --frozen-lockfile, then executed a TypeScript live harness that configured only Discord, set messages.groupChat.visibleReplies = "message_tool", set the primary model to openai/gpt-5.5, configured the model-specific runtime as codex, and used a deterministic fake agent path that would return a synthetic print lines ... failed marker unless the heartbeat runner passed sourceReplyDeliveryMode: "message_tool_only" with the heartbeat response tool enabled.

Evidence after fix:

  "proof": "issue-85310-pr-85357-live-discord-after",

    "visibleMessageFound": true,
    "newMessageCount": 1,

  }
}

Observed result after fix: the real Discord channel received the expected heartbeat proof message, the heartbeat prompt used heartbeat_respond rather than HEARTBEAT_OK, sourceReplyDeliveryMode was message_tool_only, and Discord readback found no synthetic internal failed-tool marker.

What was not tested: this run did not exercise a real OpenAI/Codex network call; the agent response was deterministic so the proof isolated heartbeat policy selection and real Discord delivery/readback. Real behavior proof workflow parsing may still require a separate body-format update or maintainer override.

Thanks @neeravmakwana for the focused fix and the Discord proof.

This PR landed the narrow heartbeat-policy repair for #85310. The important part is that scheduled heartbeat runs now resolve the same delivery context that normal channel/group replies use: the runner carries the resolved chat type, honors messages.groupChat.visibleReplies = "message_tool" for group/channel targets, and consults model-specific runtime policy such as agents.defaults.models["openai/gpt-5.5"].agentRuntime.id = "codex" before deciding whether to force heartbeat response-tool delivery.

That fixes the root cause rather than filtering the visible symptom: once the heartbeat path enters message_tool_only, the existing dispatch suppression keeps failed internal text/tool progress private instead of sending print lines ... failed output into Discord.

Validation included focused heartbeat regression coverage in src/infra/heartbeat-runner.tool-response.test.ts and src/infra/heartbeat-runner.returns-default-unset.test.ts, plus live AWS Crabbox Discord proof (run_d34c6046ba90, cbx_558469d8cded) showing sourceReplyDeliveryMode: "message_tool_only", heartbeat response-tool prompting, one expected Discord message, and zero leaked internal markers.

Merged in bd9c78f.

##### 2026.5.22

##### Changes

- Gateway/perf: reuse process-stable channel catalog reads, avoid repeated bundled-channel boundary checks, and rotate gateway watch CPU profiles so benchmark runs do not accumulate unbounded artifacts.
- Gateway/perf: reuse immutable plugin metadata snapshots across startup, config, model, channel, setup, and secret metadata readers so hot paths avoid repeated plugin file stats and manifest registry reloads.
- Gateway/perf: lazy-load startup-idle plugin work, core gateway method handlers, and the embedded ACPX runtime so Gateway health and ready signals no longer wait on unused handler trees or ACPX probes.
- Gateway/perf: cache plugin SDK public-surface alias maps and skip irrelevant macOS Linuxbrew PATH probes so Gateway startup avoids repeated filesystem walks and slow missing-directory stats.
- Meeting Notes: add a source-only external meeting-notes plugin and SDK source-provider contract outside the core npm package, with auto-start capture config, manual transcript imports, read-only `openclaw meeting-notes` CLI access, and Discord voice as the first live source.
- Docs/channels/config: add Signal `configPath`, Telegram wildcard topic defaults, local-time backup archive names, Termux home fallback, include-path validation, secret-scanner-safe placeholder guidance, Gemini CLI/Antigravity media guidance, and macOS VM auto-login guidance.

- Docs: clarify media provider credentials, Codex/OpenClaw code-mode boundaries, Slack and Telegram ack reactions, Feishu dynamic agents, secrets plaintext boundaries, memory guidance, and Chinese glossary terms. Thanks [@&#8203;nielskaspers](https://github.com/nielskaspers), [@&#8203;cosmopolitan033](https://github.com/cosmopolitan033), [@&#8203;drclaw-iq](https://github.com/drclaw-iq), [@&#8203;alexgduarte](https://github.com/alexgduarte), [@&#8203;zccyman](https://github.com/zccyman), [@&#8203;chengoak](https://github.com/chengoak), and [@&#8203;cassthebandit](https://github.com/cassthebandit).
- Packaging: exclude documentation images and assets from the npm tarball, reducing published package size without affecting runtime docs search or CLI behavior. Thanks [@&#8203;SebTardif](https://github.com/SebTardif).
- Media understanding: stop auto-probing Gemini CLI and use Antigravity CLI only as a lower-priority image/video fallback after configured provider APIs.
- Agents/subagents: limit default sub-agent bootstrap context to `AGENTS.md` and `TOOLS.md`, keeping persona, identity, user, memory, heartbeat, and setup files out of delegated workers by default. ([#&#8203;85283](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85283)) Thanks [@&#8203;100yenadmin](https://github.com/100yenadmin).
- Maintainer skills: exclude plugin SDK/API boundary work from `openclaw-landable-bug-sweep` so bugbash sweeps stay focused on small paper-cut fixes.
- QA-Lab/diagnostics: extend the OpenTelemetry smoke harness to prove trace, metric, and log export, and add first-class Prometheus and observability smoke aliases.
- Plugin SDK: add a generic channel-message poll sender so channel plugins can expose poll delivery without depending on channel-specific SDK facades.
- Crabbox: keep the local wrapper's provider validation synced with the installed Crabbox binary while preserving supported aliases such as `docker` and `blacksmith`. ([#&#8203;85302](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85302)) Thanks [@&#8203;hxy91819](https://github.com/hxy91819).
- Maintainer skills: add `openclaw-landable-bug-sweep` for producing five small, reviewed, CI-green OpenClaw bugfix PRs from issue/PR sweeps.
- Control UI/chat: add search and Load More pagination to the chat session picker, keeping initial session loads bounded while making older conversations reachable. ([#&#8203;85237](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85237)) Thanks [@&#8203;amknight](https://github.com/amknight).
- CLI/onboarding: start classic onboarding when bare `openclaw` runs before an authored config exists, while keeping configured installs on Crestodian. ([#&#8203;72343](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/72343)) Thanks [@&#8203;fuller-stack-dev](https://github.com/fuller-stack-dev).
- Discord: allow configuring a bounded `agentComponents.ttlMs` callback registry lifetime for long-running component workflows, with per-account overrides and a 24-hour cap. ([#&#8203;84189](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84189)) Thanks [@&#8203;100menotu001](https://github.com/100menotu001).
- xAI/Grok: reuse xAI OAuth auth profiles for Grok `web_search`, thread active-agent auth through web search, add Grok model aliases, and let media providers declare default operation timeouts. ([#&#8203;85182](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85182)) Thanks [@&#8203;fuller-stack-dev](https://github.com/fuller-stack-dev).
- Plugin SDK: add row-level session workflow helpers and deprecate `loadSessionStore` so plugins can read and patch sessions without depending on the legacy whole-store shape. ([#&#8203;84693](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84693)) Thanks [@&#8203;efpiva](https://github.com/efpiva).
- Gateway/plugins: reuse a compatible Gateway startup plugin registry during dispatch so safe plugin dispatches avoid redundant registry loading. ([#&#8203;84324](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84324)) Thanks [@&#8203;ai-hpc](https://github.com/ai-hpc).
- Plugins/SDK: add a general `embeddingProviders` capability contract and registration API so embeddings can become a reusable provider surface outside memory-specific adapters.
- Dependencies: refresh provider, plugin, UI, and tooling packages, update `protobufjs` to 8.4.0 to clear the current npm advisory, and carry the Claude ACP completion patch forward to `@agentclientprotocol/claude-agent-acp` 0.36.1.
- Agents/tools: remove the old sender-owner tool gating path so configured tools stay visible for trusted sessions while command and channel-action auth still carry real sender identity.
- QA-Lab: add curated mock JSONL replay fixtures and first-drift reporting for runtime-parity audits. ([#&#8203;80323](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80323), refs [#&#8203;80176](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80176)) Thanks [@&#8203;100yenadmin](https://github.com/100yenadmin).
- QA-Lab: add a QA bus tool-trace visibility scenario for sanitized tool-call assertions.
- QA-Lab: replace generic evidence framing in seeded scenario prompts with concrete observed QA behavior.
- QA-Lab: list named scenario packs in the coverage report so personal-agent privacy coverage stays visible in audits.
- QA-Lab: list live transport lane membership in the coverage report so real transport checks stay separate from seeded qa-channel scenarios.
- Release/package: run package integrity checks before package acceptance lanes so public install/update validation fails before private QA assets can leak into the package.
- QA-Lab: include the optional 100-turn runtime parity soak in release-soak artifacts so long-run Codex/Pi transcript drift stays visible outside the default gate. ([#&#8203;80395](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80395)) Thanks [@&#8203;100yenadmin](https://github.com/100yenadmin).
- QA-Lab: add a live-only long-context progress watchdog scenario for Codex app-server timeout and stalled-run sentinels. ([#&#8203;80323](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80323)) Thanks [@&#8203;100yenadmin](https://github.com/100yenadmin).
- QA-Lab: tag gateway restart recovery and streaming final-integrity scenarios as live-only runtime parity lanes. ([#&#8203;80323](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80323)) Thanks [@&#8203;100yenadmin](https://github.com/100yenadmin).
- QA-Lab: add a personal-agent failure recovery scenario that checks honest partial status, retry boundaries, and local recovery artifacts. ([#&#8203;83872](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83872)) Thanks [@&#8203;iFiras-Max1](https://github.com/iFiras-Max1).
- QA-Lab: include an opt-in `update.run` package self-upgrade sentinel for destructive latest-package recovery checks.
- QA-Lab: add Codex plugin lifecycle and auth-profile fixture coverage for missing installs, pinned-version drift, first-turn install ordering, and doctor migration safety. ([#&#8203;80323](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80323), refs [#&#8203;80174](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80174)) Thanks [@&#8203;100yenadmin](https://github.com/100yenadmin).
- Models/perf: pre-warm the provider auth-state map at gateway startup so `/models` and every model-listing call short-circuits the per-provider plugin / external-CLI discovery on the hot path. Per-call cost drops from \~20 s to \~5 ms (\~4,100×); the one-time startup warm resets and re-warms after hot reloads. ([#&#8203;84816](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84816)) Thanks [@&#8203;sjf](https://github.com/sjf).
- Release/security: ship the root npm package and OpenClaw-owned npm plugins with generated shrinkwrap, support bundled plugin runtime dependencies for suitable plugin tarballs, and require review for lockfile/shrinkwrap changes so published installs use locked dependency graphs.
- Tests/perf: isolate doctor core health check unit coverage from real skills/workspace discovery so `doctor-core-checks` no longer dominates unit perf while keeping one real skills-readiness smoke. ([#&#8203;84493](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84493)) Thanks [@&#8203;frankekn](https://github.com/frankekn).

##### Fixes

- WebChat: summarize internal message-tool source replies so tool cards no longer duplicate the visible reply body. ([#&#8203;84773](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84773)) Thanks [@&#8203;jason-allen-oneal](https://github.com/jason-allen-oneal).
- Gateway: preserve deferred lifecycle-error cleanup across later non-terminal events so provider timeouts can persist failed session state instead of leaving sessions stuck running. ([#&#8203;85256](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85256), fixes [#&#8203;63819](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/63819)) Thanks [@&#8203;samzong](https://github.com/samzong).
- Agents/subagents: report tool-only child progress during timeout summaries instead of showing no visible output.
- Telegram/ACP: preserve explicit `:topic:` conversation suffixes when inbound ACP targets do not carry a separate thread id.
- Browser/proxy: bypass the managed proxy for the exact local managed Chrome CDP readiness and DevTools WebSocket endpoints, so `openclaw browser start` works when the operator proxy blocks loopback egress. ([#&#8203;83255](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83255)) Thanks [@&#8203;lightcap](https://github.com/lightcap).
- Ollama: bypass the managed proxy for configured local embedding origins while keeping SSRF guardrails on unconfigured targets. Thanks [@&#8203;Kaspre](https://github.com/Kaspre).
- OpenAI/images: route Codex API-key image generation through the native OpenAI Images API instead of the Codex OAuth streaming backend, avoiding 401s from valid API keys.
- Agents/OpenAI completions: omit empty tool payload fields for proxy-like OpenAI-compatible endpoints so strict vLLM-style servers accept tool-free turns. ([#&#8203;85835](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85835)) Thanks [@&#8203;rendrag-git](https://github.com/rendrag-git).
- Checks/Windows: route full `pnpm check` stage commands through the managed child runner so Windows avoids Node shell-argv deprecation warnings there too.
- Checks/Windows: run managed child commands through explicit `cmd.exe` wrapping instead of Node shell mode with argv, avoiding Node 24 subprocess deprecation warnings during changed checks.
- Gateway: omit internal stream-error placeholder entries from agent prompt history so failed assistant turns are not replayed as model-authored text. ([#&#8203;85652](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85652)) Thanks [@&#8203;anyech](https://github.com/anyech).
- Sessions: enforce the session write-lock max-hold policy during lock acquisition so long-held locks can be reclaimed before the stale-lock window. ([#&#8203;85764](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85764)) Thanks [@&#8203;njuboy11](https://github.com/njuboy11).
- Models: prune retired Groq, GitHub Copilot, OpenAI, xAI, and old Claude catalog entries, with doctor migration to upgrade existing configs to current provider refs.
- Doctor/update: recognize junction-backed source checkouts as git installs by comparing canonical paths before showing package-manager update guidance. Fixes [#&#8203;82215](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/82215). Thanks [@&#8203;igormf](https://github.com/igormf).
- Channels: honor `/verbose on` for tool/progress summaries across direct chats, groups, channels, and forum topics while preserving quiet default behavior. ([#&#8203;85488](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85488)) Thanks [@&#8203;kurplunkin](https://github.com/kurplunkin).
- CLI/skills: show an all-ready note with next-step commands when skill setup has no missing dependencies to install. ([#&#8203;85032](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85032)) Thanks [@&#8203;aniruddhaadak80](https://github.com/aniruddhaadak80).
- Microsoft Foundry: route DeepSeek V4 Pro and Flash models through the Foundry Responses API while keeping older DeepSeek models on their existing path. ([#&#8203;85549](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85549)) Thanks [@&#8203;roslinmahmud](https://github.com/roslinmahmud).
- Status/usage: show configured cost estimates for AWS SDK models in full usage output while keeping token-only usage replies cost-free. ([#&#8203;85619](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85619)) Thanks [@&#8203;ItsOtherMauridian](https://github.com/ItsOtherMauridian).
- Agents/OpenAI Responses: retry non-visible reasoning-only turns for OpenAI Responses API families instead of treating them as empty failed turns. ([#&#8203;85603](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85603)) Thanks [@&#8203;SebTardif](https://github.com/SebTardif).
- Directive tags: preserve message and content-part object identity when display stripping makes no directive-tag changes. ([#&#8203;85682](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85682)) Thanks [@&#8203;willamhou](https://github.com/willamhou).
- Telegram: send local `path`/`filePath` and structured attachment media from `sendMessage` actions instead of dropping them or sending text-only messages. ([#&#8203;85219](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85219)) Thanks [@&#8203;keshavbotagent](https://github.com/keshavbotagent).
- Sessions/status: show the estimated context budget when fresh provider usage is unavailable and clear stale estimates across session resets and compaction boundaries. ([#&#8203;84830](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84830)) Thanks [@&#8203;giodl73-repo](https://github.com/giodl73-repo).
- Gateway/config: pin relative `OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR` overrides to an absolute path at startup so later working-directory changes cannot retarget gateway state. ([#&#8203;52264](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/52264)) Thanks [@&#8203;PerfectPan](https://github.com/PerfectPan).
- Release/package: run npm release, prepublish, and postpublish verification through Windows-safe npm command shims so native Windows checks can execute `npm.cmd` instead of treating it as a binary.
- Agents/harness: pass CLI runtime aliases through harness selection so provider-owned CLI aliases no longer get rejected before reaching the right runtime. ([#&#8203;85631](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85631)) Thanks [@&#8203;potterdigital](https://github.com/potterdigital).
- Secrets: show the irreversible apply warning after interactive `secrets configure` confirmation so confirmed migrations still get the final safety prompt. ([#&#8203;85638](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85638)) Thanks [@&#8203;alkor2000](https://github.com/alkor2000).
- Agents/CLI output: ignore cumulative Claude `stream-json` result usage when assistant usage events are present, preventing inflated cache-read accounting. ([#&#8203;85625](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85625)) Thanks [@&#8203;zhouhe-xydt](https://github.com/zhouhe-xydt).
- CLI: keep `waitForever()` alive by leaving its keep-alive interval ref'd so the public helper no longer exits immediately with Node's unsettled-await code. ([#&#8203;85694](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85694)) Thanks [@&#8203;m1qaweb](https://github.com/m1qaweb).
- Agents/bootstrap: guard bootstrap name checks against missing file names so malformed bootstrap entries warn and truncate instead of crashing. Fixes [#&#8203;85523](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85523). ([#&#8203;85615](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85615)) Thanks [@&#8203;zhouhe-xydt](https://github.com/zhouhe-xydt).
- CLI/tasks: reject partially numeric `openclaw tasks audit --limit` values so audit limits must be real positive integers instead of accepting strings like `5abc`. ([#&#8203;84901](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84901)) Thanks [@&#8203;jbetala7](https://github.com/jbetala7).
- Status/diagnostics: bound deep Docker audit probes so `openclaw status --deep` reports slow container checks instead of hanging behind unbounded inspection. ([#&#8203;85476](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85476)) Thanks [@&#8203;giodl73-repo](https://github.com/giodl73-repo).
- Providers/Anthropic: migrate 1M context handling to GA-capable Claude 4.x models by sizing eligible models at 1M without the retired `context-1m-2025-08-07` beta, ignoring that retired beta in older configs, and preserving OAuth-required Anthropic beta headers. ([#&#8203;45613](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/45613)) Thanks [@&#8203;haoyu-haoyu](https://github.com/haoyu-haoyu).
- Cron/Telegram: parse forum-topic delivery targets through the Telegram plugin instead of cron core, including `:topic:` and `:topicId` forms for announce delivery. Thanks [@&#8203;etticat](https://github.com/etticat).
- Twitch: keep stale message-handler cleanup callbacks from removing newer handler registrations for the same account, preserving inbound message delivery after reconnects.

- Memory/LanceDB: expose public memory artifacts through the active memory provider bridge so memory-wiki imports durable memory files, daily notes, dream reports, and event logs without depending on memory-core internals. Fixes [#&#8203;83604](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83604). ([#&#8203;85060](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85060)) Thanks [@&#8203;brokemac79](https://github.com/brokemac79).
- Crabbox: keep AWS hydration compatible with local Actions replay by inlining the hydrate workflow's Node/pnpm setup instead of invoking repo-local composite actions.
- Agents/subagents: simplify native sub-agent completion handoff so children report their latest visible assistant result to the requester without using `message`, while keeping parent-owned message-tool delivery policy intact. Fixes [#&#8203;85070](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85070). ([#&#8203;85089](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85089)) Thanks [@&#8203;brokemac79](https://github.com/brokemac79).
- Docker setup: stop printing the Gateway bearer token in setup logs and printed follow-up commands.
- Agents: let embedded compaction fallback retries proceed when PI-compatible candidates do not need agent harness plugin preparation.
- Agents/tools: honor configured custom provider API keys when deciding whether media, image-generation, video-generation, music-generation, and PDF tools are available. ([#&#8203;85570](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85570))
- StepFun: stop advertising stale generic API key auth choices so onboarding only offers runtime-backed Standard and Step Plan choices.
- Diagnostics: keep OpenTelemetry log bodies behind explicit content capture and scrub scoped agent-session keys from OpenTelemetry and Prometheus labels while preserving bounded queue-lane prefixes.
- Windows installer: fail Git checkout installs when `pnpm install` or `pnpm build` fails instead of writing a wrapper to a missing CLI build.
- Sessions: surface previous-transcript archive failures during `/new` rotation so disk rename errors are logged instead of silently hiding stranded transcript files. Fixes [#&#8203;81984](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/81984). ([#&#8203;85586](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85586), from [#&#8203;82081](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/82081)) Thanks [@&#8203;0xghost42](https://github.com/0xghost42).
- TUI/agents: mirror internal-ui message-tool replies into final chat output so message-tool-only agents remain visible in `openclaw tui`. Fixes [#&#8203;85538](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85538). Thanks [@&#8203;danpolasek](https://github.com/danpolasek).
- Agents: keep parallel OpenAI-compatible tool-call deltas in separate argument buffers so interleaved tool calls no longer corrupt streamed arguments. ([#&#8203;82263](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/82263)) Thanks [@&#8203;luna-system](https://github.com/luna-system).
- Memory/doctor: report missing or unusable QMD workspace directories as workspace failures instead of generic binary failures. ([#&#8203;63167](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/63167)) Thanks [@&#8203;sercada](https://github.com/sercada).
- Debug proxy: record CONNECT client-socket errors and destroy the paired upstream socket so abrupt client disconnects no longer leak tunnel resources. ([#&#8203;82444](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/82444)) Thanks [@&#8203;SebTardif](https://github.com/SebTardif).
- Diffs: continue hydrating later diff cards when one card fails so a single broken card no longer blanks the whole diff viewer. ([#&#8203;84775](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84775)) Thanks [@&#8203;cosmopolitan033](https://github.com/cosmopolitan033).
- Mac app: use the native settings sidebar window chrome so the sidebar toggle stays on the left and content no longer clips under oversized titlebar padding.
- QA-Lab/Codex: bundle auth/plugin fixture imports for flow scenarios and let terminal async media tools end Codex app-server turns without timing out. ([#&#8203;80397](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80397), refs [#&#8203;80323](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80323)) Thanks [@&#8203;100yenadmin](https://github.com/100yenadmin).
- Gateway/agents: preserve fresh session overrides and metadata when stale cached agent-session entries race with store updates, so subagent model/provider overrides and routing policy survive concurrent writes. ([#&#8203;19328](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/19328)) Thanks [@&#8203;CodeReclaimers](https://github.com/CodeReclaimers).
- Control UI/chat: keep chat session search inline with the session selector so the header no longer shows a duplicate standalone search row.
- Control UI/chat: collapse focused-mode header chrome and suppress hidden-header scroll updates so focus mode no longer jumps while scrolling. Thanks [@&#8203;amknight](https://github.com/amknight).
- Codex app-server: restart the native app-server and retry once when server-side compaction times out, so preflight compaction stalls recover instead of failing every dispatch. ([#&#8203;85500](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85500))
- Restore Control UI gateway token pairing \[AI].

- OpenAI video: honor configured provider request private-network opt-in for local/custom video endpoints so explicitly trusted mock and self-hosted providers are not blocked. Thanks [@&#8203;shakkernerd](https://github.com/shakkernerd).
- OpenAI video: send uploaded video edit requests to the documented `/videos/edits` endpoint with a `video` file instead of posting MP4 references to `/videos`. Thanks [@&#8203;shakkernerd](https://github.com/shakkernerd).
- Agents/channels: preserve message-tool delivery evidence through gateway agent completion handoffs so successful generated media sends are not followed by false failure messages. Thanks [@&#8203;shakkernerd](https://github.com/shakkernerd).
- CLI/update: repair managed npm plugin `openclaw` peer links during post-core convergence and reject stale or wrong-target peer links before restart. ([#&#8203;83794](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83794)) Thanks [@&#8203;fuller-stack-dev](https://github.com/fuller-stack-dev).
- CLI/agents: default new omitted-account bindings to all accounts when the channel has multiple configured accounts, and clarify account-scope docs. ([#&#8203;49769](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/49769)) Thanks [@&#8203;Gcaufy](https://github.com/Gcaufy).
- Codex app-server: let authorized `/codex` control commands such as `/codex detach` escape plugin-owned conversation bindings while keeping unknown or unauthorized slash text routed to the bound plugin.

- Codex app-server: disable native Code Mode when the effective exec host is `node` and keep OpenClaw `exec`/`process` available, so `/exec host=node` routes shell commands through the selected node instead of the gateway. Fixes [#&#8203;85012](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85012).

- Agents: bound embedded auto-compaction session write-lock watchdogs to the compaction timeout instead of the full run timeout, so stuck compaction cannot hold the live session lock for the whole run window. ([#&#8203;84949](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84949)) Thanks [@&#8203;luoyanglang](https://github.com/luoyanglang).

Thanks [@&#8203;100yenadmin](https://github.com/100yenadmin).
- Gateway: defer provider auth-state prewarm until after startup readiness so early gateway tool/session requests are not blocked by provider auth discovery. ([#&#8203;85272](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85272)) Thanks [@&#8203;dutifulbob](https://github.com/dutifulbob).
- Gateway/models: coalesce provider auth-state rewarms after auth-profile failures and log event-loop delay for warm/rewarm work, so provider auth bursts no longer stack full auth sweeps behind channel replies.
- Gateway/models: stop cancelled provider auth-state prewarms from continuing full provider sweeps, so reload and auth-failure bursts no longer keep startup busy.
- Agents/Codex: show the first plan update as a transient chat status notice without counting it as final assistant content.
- CLI/update: walk the macOS process ancestry and honor the inherited Gateway runtime PID before package updates stop the managed Gateway service, so nested in-band updater children can refuse instead of killing the LaunchAgent-supervised Gateway that owns them. Fixes [#&#8203;85120](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85120).
- Gateway/LaunchAgent: wait for launchd reload bootout to finish and fall back to kickstart when bootstrap races, so reload handoff does not leave the service deregistered. Fixes [#&#8203;84630](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84630).

- Gateway/LaunchAgent: treat a concurrent launchd bootstrap as a successful restart when the service is already loaded, avoiding false macOS Gateway restart failures. Fixes [#&#8203;84721](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84721).

- Memory: expand `~` in configured extra memory paths before resolving them, so home-relative folders are not treated as workspace-relative.

Thanks [@&#8203;stadman](https://github.com/stadman).
- Skills: treat `openclaw.os: macos` as Darwin when checking skill requirements, so macOS-only skills no longer report as missing on macOS hosts. Fixes [#&#8203;61338](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/61338).

Thanks [@&#8203;ShuaiHui](https://github.com/ShuaiHui).
- CLI/update: preserve managed Gateway service environment during package cutovers so macOS LaunchAgent repair/restart reads the pre-update service state instead of caller shell state.

- Skills: watch each shared skill directory once across agent workspaces instead of once per agent, preventing file-descriptor exhaustion (`EMFILE`) that disposed bundle-mcp processes and stalled sessions on multi-agent gateways. Fixes [#&#8203;84968](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84968).

- Release/security: keep generated npm shrinkwrap package versions inside the pnpm lock graph so published package locks cannot bypass pnpm dependency age and override policy.
- Cron: honor `cron.retry.retryOn: ["network"]` for common network error codes such as `EAI_AGAIN`, `EHOSTUNREACH`, and `ENETUNREACH`.
- Gateway chat: broadcast returned agent-run error payloads after an agent starts so ACP/WebChat clients receive terminal idle-timeout errors. Fixes [#&#8203;84945](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84945).
- Gateway chat display: preserve OpenAI-compatible `prompt_tokens`, `completion_tokens`, and `total_tokens` usage fields in sanitized chat history so llama.cpp sessions keep context counts.

Thanks [@&#8203;ugitmebaby](https://github.com/ugitmebaby).
- OpenCode Go: strip unsupported Kimi reasoning replay fields before provider requests so repeated `kimi-k2.6` turns do not fail schema validation. Fixes [#&#8203;83812](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83812). Thanks [@&#8203;Sleeck](https://github.com/Sleeck).

Thanks [@&#8203;islandpreneur007](https://github.com/islandpreneur007).
- Gateway/models: reuse prepared provider auth metadata during model-listing auth checks so repeated lookups avoid broad plugin discovery while preserving synthetic local auth.
- CLI/status: suppress systemd user-service setup hints when `openclaw status --deep` can already reach a running Gateway RPC service. Fixes [#&#8203;85094](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85094).

- CLI/devices: recover local approval when a same-device repair request replaces the request ID being approved.
- CLI/agents: retry transient normal-close Gateway handshakes before falling back to embedded `openclaw agent` execution.
- CLI/update: keep managed Gateway service stop/restart status lines out of `openclaw update --json` stdout so package-update automation can parse the JSON payload.
- Plugins: resolve OpenClaw plugin SDK subpaths for native external plugin runtimes without mutating package installs or broadening process-wide module resolution.
- Agents/OpenAI: preserve Responses and Chat Completions `reasoning_tokens` usage metadata without double-counting it in aggregate output tokens. ([#&#8203;85319](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85319))

- Windows installer: run npm and Corepack command shims from a Windows-local directory so installs launched from WSL2 UNC paths do not fail before OpenClaw is installed.
- Windows updates: roll back git-backed updates to the previous checkout when dependency install, build, UI build, or doctor repair fails.
- Windows installer: persist user-local portable Git on PATH and activate the repo-pinned pnpm version for git-backed installs and updates.
- Windows installer: bootstrap a user-local portable Node.js when native Windows has no Node and no winget, Chocolatey, or Scoop, so first-run installs can continue on raw hosts.
- Windows installer: extract the downloaded portable Node.js directory with native `tar` before falling back to .NET zip extraction, avoiding PowerShell 5.1 archive and path-length failures.

- QA-Lab: make the commitments heartbeat-target-none scenario request an immediate heartbeat instead of waiting for the next scheduled heartbeat.
- Codex/Plugin SDK: deliver Codex-native subagent completions through a generic harness task runtime so harness-backed plugins can mirror durable task lifecycle and completion delivery without Codex-specific SDK imports. ([#&#8203;83445](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83445)) Thanks [@&#8203;bryanpearson](https://github.com/bryanpearson).

- Gateway/sessions: preserve compatible session auth profile overrides when switching models within the same provider, including provider-auth aliases. Fixes [#&#8203;81837](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/81837). ([#&#8203;81886](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/81886)) Thanks [@&#8203;TurboTheTurtle](https://github.com/TurboTheTurtle).
- Gateway/status: surface inbound delivery telemetry counters and transport-liveness warnings in `openclaw status --all`. Fixes [#&#8203;49577](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/49577). ([#&#8203;72724](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/72724))
- Docker: prune package-excluded plugin source workspaces and dependency closures so runtime images do not keep packages for plugins that were not opted in.
- Providers/Ollama: treat Docker/OrbStack host aliases as local Ollama endpoints so `ollama-local` marker auth works when OpenClaw runs inside a VM/container and Ollama runs on the host. Fixes [#&#8203;84875](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84875).
- QA-Lab: keep explicitly searchable/deferred OpenClaw dynamic tool rows report-only by default so tool-coverage gates do not treat mock discovery gaps as hard product failures. ([#&#8203;80319](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80319)) Thanks [@&#8203;100yenadmin](https://github.com/100yenadmin).
- Agents/config: keep non-Google provider model refs from being rewritten by Google Gemini preview-id normalization. ([#&#8203;84762](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84762)) Thanks [@&#8203;zhangguiping-xydt](https://github.com/zhangguiping-xydt).
- Installer: require a real controlling terminal before launching onboarding so headless `curl | bash` installs finish cleanly after installing the CLI.
- Agents/Codex: promote a completed final assistant response when a prompt timeout races Codex app-server completion instead of returning an empty timeout envelope. Refs [#&#8203;84516](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84516).
- Codex app-server: keep interrupted turn statuses from being treated as OpenClaw aborts by themselves, so tool-only turns remain eligible for no-visible-answer recovery. Fixes [#&#8203;84492](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84492).
- Agents: cap heartbeat model bleed context hints by the stored session window when runtime model metadata is unavailable, so overflow recovery advice does not suggest a larger window than the active session actually has.
- Control UI/Web Push: use `https://openclaw.ai` as the generated default VAPID subject instead of the old localhost mailbox so iOS PWA push setup uses an Apple-acceptable subject when `OPENCLAW_VAPID_SUBJECT` is unset. Fixes [#&#8203;83134](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83134). ([#&#8203;83317](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83317)) Thanks [@&#8203;IWhatsskill](https://github.com/IWhatsskill).
- Control UI: distinguish inherited thinking-off settings from explicit Off selections so the thinking selector no longer shows two identical Off rows. ([#&#8203;85223](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85223)) Thanks [@&#8203;amknight](https://github.com/amknight).
- Agents/Pi: keep embedded session transcript writes from tripping false takeover detection after packaged npm onboarding agent turns.
- Codex/TUI: surface Codex-native post-turn compaction failures instead of continuing uncompacted, and keep successful native compaction serialized before local idle/next-turn handling. Fixes [#&#8203;84305](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84305). ([#&#8203;85160](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85160)) Thanks [@&#8203;joshavant](https://github.com/joshavant).
- Memory/search: stop recall tracking from writing dreaming side-effect artifacts when `dreaming.enabled=false`, while preserving normal search results. Fixes [#&#8203;84436](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84436). ([#&#8203;84444](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84444)) Thanks [@&#8203;NianJiuZst](https://github.com/NianJiuZst).
- Diffs: render viewer toolbar icons from a closed icon-name map instead of HTML strings, removing the toolbar icon XSS sink. ([#&#8203;83955](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83955)) Thanks [@&#8203;tanshanshan](https://github.com/tanshanshan).
- QA: keep `pnpm qa:e2e` self-check runs inside the private QA runtime envelope even when inherited shell env disables bundled plugins.
- fix(config): validate browser sandbox bind sources \[AI]. ([#&#8203;84799](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84799)) Thanks [@&#8203;pgondhi987](https://github.com/pgondhi987).
- doctor: constrain legacy plugin cleanup paths \[AI]. ([#&#8203;84801](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84801)) Thanks [@&#8203;pgondhi987](https://github.com/pgondhi987).
- Update/doctor: prune stale local bundled plugin install records that point at old compiled bundled output so current bundled plugin schemas win after upgrade. ([#&#8203;84863](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84863)) Thanks [@&#8203;fuller-stack-dev](https://github.com/fuller-stack-dev).
- Providers/Ollama: preserve native Ollama tool-call IDs across assistant replay so Gemini over Ollama Cloud can keep its hidden function-call thought-signature handle.
- Discord: keep session recovery and `/stop` abort ownership on the source dispatch lane while bound ACP turns continue routing to their target session, so stalled pre-run work and late replies are cleared instead of leaking after stop. Fixes [#&#8203;84477](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84477). ([#&#8203;85100](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85100)) Thanks [@&#8203;joshavant](https://github.com/joshavant).
- Codex app-server: mark missing turn completion after observed execution as replay-unsafe and release the session so follow-up turns can run. Fixes [#&#8203;84076](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84076). ([#&#8203;85107](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85107)) Thanks [@&#8203;joshavant](https://github.com/joshavant).
- Codex app-server: give visible `message` dynamic tool sends a longer timeout budget so slow channel delivery can return its own result or error instead of hitting the 30-second Codex wrapper. ([#&#8203;85216](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85216)) Thanks [@&#8203;amknight](https://github.com/amknight).
- Codex app-server: add a dedicated post-tool raw assistant completion idle timeout config so trusted heavy turns can wait longer after tool handoff without weakening final assistant release.
- Matrix: keep explicitly configured two-person rooms on the room route before stale `m.direct` or strict two-member DM fallback can bypass mention gating. Fixes [#&#8203;85017](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85017). ([#&#8203;85137](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85137)) Thanks [@&#8203;joshavant](https://github.com/joshavant).
- Agents/subagents: require explicit subagent allowlist targets to be configured agents so stale deleted-agent ids are omitted from `agents_list` and rejected by `sessions_spawn`. Fixes [#&#8203;84811](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84811). ([#&#8203;85154](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85154)) Thanks [@&#8203;joshavant](https://github.com/joshavant).
- PDF tool: time out idle remote PDF body reads after 120 seconds so stalled remote documents return an error instead of wedging the session. Fixes [#&#8203;68649](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/68649). ([#&#8203;84768](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84768)) Thanks [@&#8203;luoyanglang](https://github.com/luoyanglang).
- Diagnostics/OpenTelemetry plugin: suppress handled OTLP exporter promise rejections so collector shutdowns no longer crash the Gateway. ([#&#8203;81085](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/81085)) Thanks [@&#8203;luoyanglang](https://github.com/luoyanglang).
- Agents/exec: omit raw command text and env values from denied exec failure logs while keeping safe correlation metadata. Fixes [#&#8203;85049](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85049). ([#&#8203;85140](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85140)) Thanks [@&#8203;joshavant](https://github.com/joshavant).
- Media/audio: skip empty structured sherpa-onnx transcripts instead of treating the raw JSON payload as spoken text. ([#&#8203;84667](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84667)) Thanks [@&#8203;TurboTheTurtle](https://github.com/TurboTheTurtle).
- Agents/exec: preserve inherited XDG base-directory environment values for subprocesses while still rejecting agent-supplied XDG overrides. Fixes [#&#8203;84854](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84854). ([#&#8203;85139](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85139)) Thanks [@&#8203;joshavant](https://github.com/joshavant).
- Node/Linux: keep `OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN` out of generated systemd unit files by writing node service token values to a node-specific env file. ([#&#8203;84408](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84408))
- Memory-core/dreaming: reuse stable narrative subagent session keys per workspace and phase while keeping per-run idempotency and bounded cleanup, so stale `dreaming-narrative-*` sessions do not accumulate. Fixes [#&#8203;68252](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/68252), [#&#8203;69187](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/69187), and [#&#8203;70402](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/70402).
