Summary

  • Preserves WebChat backscroll when new messages or streaming chunks arrive after the user has scrolled up.
  • Adds a follow-lock state that disables near-bottom auto-follow after a user scroll-up until the user returns to the bottom.
  • Keeps manual scroll-to-bottom and the always auto-scroll mode working as explicit overrides.
  • Adds regression coverage for small scroll-up movements during the programmatic scroll guard window.

Linked context

Closes #92386

Real behavior proof (required for external PRs)

  • Behavior or issue addressed: WebChat should not force-scroll to the bottom when the user has deliberately scrolled up during an active reply or stream.
  • Real environment tested: Local OpenClaw checkout at this PR head on macOS, Node 24.15.0, Vite dev server, Playwright Chromium against http://127.0.0.1:41739/.
  • Exact steps or command run after this patch:
corepack [email protected] --dir ui exec vite --host 127.0.0.1 --port 41739
node - <<'NODE'
const { chromium } = require('playwright');
// Opens Chromium, imports /src/ui/app-scroll.ts from Vite, creates a real
// scroll container, simulates user scroll-up during streaming, then schedules
// a streaming scroll update and records scroll/follow state.
NODE
  • Evidence after fix:
{
  "afterUserScroll": {
    "scrollTop": 1540,
    "followLocked": true,
    "userNearBottom": false,
    "newMessagesBelow": false
  },
  "afterStreamingUpdate": {
    "scrollTop": 1540,
    "followLocked": true,
    "userNearBottom": false,
    "newMessagesBelow": true
  },
  "afterReturnToBottom": {
    "scrollTop": 1600,
    "followLocked": false,
    "userNearBottom": true,
    "newMessagesBelow": false
  }
}
  • Observed result after fix: after the user scrolls from 1600 to 1540, a streaming update leaves scrollTop at 1540 instead of forcing it back to bottom, and marks newMessagesBelow=true. Scrolling back to bottom clears the lock and indicator.
  • What was not tested: a live gateway-backed chat session with a real model streaming tokens.
  • Proof limitations or environment constraints: the browser proof exercises the actual UI scroll module in Chromium with a real DOM scroll container, but uses a synthetic host instead of a live gateway session to avoid needing credentials or live model traffic.
  • Before evidence: issue WebChat: new messages force-scroll to bottom even when user has scrolled up #92386 reports that every new incoming message or streamed reply chunk yanks the WebChat view back to the bottom while the user is reading backscroll.

Tests and validation

  • node scripts/test-projects.mjs ui/src/ui/app-scroll.test.ts - passed, 30 tests.
  • node scripts/run-oxlint.mjs ui/src/ui/app-scroll.ts ui/src/ui/app-scroll.test.ts ui/src/ui/app.ts - passed.
  • corepack [email protected] exec oxfmt --check ui/src/ui/app-scroll.ts ui/src/ui/app-scroll.test.ts ui/src/ui/app.ts - passed.
  • corepack [email protected] tsgo:test:ui - passed.
  • corepack [email protected] ui:build - passed.
  • corepack [email protected] --dir ui test src/ui/chat/chat-avatar.test.ts - passed, 3 tests.
  • corepack [email protected] --dir ui test src/ui/app-render-usage-tab.test.ts - passed, 2 tests.
  • corepack [email protected] --dir ui test src/ui/app-polling.node.test.ts - passed, 1 test.

Full corepack [email protected] test:ui currently fails on both this branch and an unmodified current-upstream/main worktree with unrelated UI suite-order/timer failures in app-render-usage-tab and app-polling.node; those files pass in isolation.

Risk checklist

Did user-visible behavior change? (Yes/No)

Yes. WebChat now preserves backscroll after the user scrolls up during streaming.

Did config, environment, or migration behavior change? (Yes/No)

No.

Did security, auth, secrets, network, or tool execution behavior change? (Yes/No)

No.

What is the highest-risk area?

Chat auto-scroll ergonomics in Control UI.

How is that risk mitigated?

The change is limited to the chat scroll helper and preserves the explicit manual scroll-to-bottom path plus chatAutoScroll: "always". Regression tests cover initial auto-scroll, manual scroll, auto-scroll-off, always mode, and small user scroll-up during streaming.

Current review state

What is the next action?

Ready for maintainer review and CI.

What is still waiting on author, maintainer, CI, or external proof?

Nothing known from the author side. Full local test:ui has a baseline failure on current upstream/main, documented above.

Which bot or reviewer comments were addressed?

None yet.

Codex review: needs maintainer review before merge. Reviewed June 13, 2026, 6:36 AM ET / 10:36 UTC.

Summary
The PR adds a WebChat follow-lock state in the Control UI scroll helper, initializes it on the app host, and expands regression tests for preserving backscroll during streaming.

PR surface: Source +13, Tests +76. Total +89 across 3 files.

Reproducibility: yes. from source: current main and v2026.6.6 can keep chatUserNearBottom true after a small upward scroll within the 450px threshold, and the next chatStream update schedules a bottom scroll. I did not run a live gateway-backed browser repro in this read-only pass.

Review metrics: 1 noteworthy metric.

  • Overlapping WebChat scroll repairs: 1 older open PR. The same follow-lock invariant is also proposed in UI: harden chat scroll interrupts #72957, so maintainers should avoid landing competing scroll-state changes.

Merge readiness
Overall: 🐚 platinum hermit
Proof: 🦞 diamond lobster
Patch quality: 🐚 platinum hermit
Result: ready for maintainer review.

Overall follows the weaker of proof and patch quality, so missing proof can cap an otherwise strong patch.

Rank-up moves:

  • Maintainers should choose this focused branch or the broader overlapping scroll PR as the single landing path.
  • A short browser visual smoke of live WebChat streaming would further reduce timing-risk uncertainty.

Mantis proof suggestion
A visible browser proof would materially confirm the WebChat backscroll behavior during streaming beyond the helper-level Chromium output. A maintainer can ask Mantis to capture proof by posting a new PR comment that starts with the OpenClaw Mantis account mention, followed by:

visual task: verify WebChat preserves backscroll during an active streaming reply after the user scrolls up, then follows again at bottom.

Risk before merge

  • [P1] The older overlapping repair at UI: harden chat scroll interrupts #72957 targets the same WebChat follow-lock invariant, so maintainers should land one path and retire or retarget the other.
  • [P1] The supplied proof exercises the actual scroll module in Chromium with a synthetic host rather than a live gateway-backed streaming chat, so a short visual smoke would further reduce timing-risk uncertainty.

Maintainer options:

  1. Decide the mitigation before merge
    Land one narrow WebChat follow-lock implementation, with this mergeable focused branch as the cleaner current candidate if maintainers prefer it, then close the linked issue and retire or retarget the overlapping older PR.
  2. Pause or close
    Do not merge this PR until maintainers decide whether the risk is worth taking.

Next step before merge

  • No automated repair is needed; the remaining action is maintainer selection between this mergeable focused branch and the broader conflicting repair, followed by normal final gates.

Security
Cleared: The diff is limited to Control UI scroll state and tests, with no dependency, workflow, auth, network, secret, or execution-surface change.

Review details

Best possible solution:

Land one narrow WebChat follow-lock implementation, with this mergeable focused branch as the cleaner current candidate if maintainers prefer it, then close the linked issue and retire or retarget the overlapping older PR.

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

Yes from source: current main and v2026.6.6 can keep chatUserNearBottom true after a small upward scroll within the 450px threshold, and the next chatStream update schedules a bottom scroll. I did not run a live gateway-backed browser repro in this read-only pass.

Is this the best way to solve the issue?

Yes, this looks like the best current landing shape: it changes the central scroll helper, adds minimal host state, preserves manual/initial/always/off behavior, and adds focused regression tests. The remaining choice is maintainer selection between this focused branch and the broader overlapping repair.

What I checked:

  • Repository policy read: Root AGENTS.md and ui/AGENTS.md were read fully; the root review-depth rules apply, while the UI-scoped guide is i18n-specific and does not add scroll-specific requirements. (AGENTS.md:1, 64f9f3c278db)
  • Current main still has the reported auto-follow path: Near-bottom mode on current main still sticks when effectiveForce, chatUserNearBottom, or distance below 450px is true, with no separate follow-lock for upward user intent. (ui/src/ui/app-scroll.ts:83, 64f9f3c278db)
  • Latest release has the same relevant behavior: v2026.6.6 contains the same near-bottom auto-follow decision and no follow-lock guard, so the issue is not already shipped as fixed. (ui/src/ui/app-scroll.ts:83, 8c802aa68351)
  • Streaming updates reach the helper: The Control UI lifecycle schedules chat scrolling when chatStream, chat messages, loading state, or the chat tab changes, so streamed chunks exercise this helper path. (ui/src/ui/app-lifecycle.ts:246, 64f9f3c278db)
  • Patch gates near-bottom follow on the new lock: At the PR head, the initial and retry stick decisions preserve explicit manual and always modes while requiring !chatFollowLocked before near-bottom auto-follow can re-engage. (ui/src/ui/app-scroll.ts:85, 62be2a28aa14)
  • Patch records and clears upward-interruption state: handleChatScroll now locks follow on upward user scroll away from the true bottom, clears it within the reacquire threshold, and resetChatScroll clears the new state. (ui/src/ui/app-scroll.ts:213, 62be2a28aa14)

Likely related people:

  • Marco Marandiz: The earlier WebChat scroll-position preservation work added the near-bottom/user-position behavior and app-scroll tests that this PR tightens. (role: introduced prior scroll-position behavior; confidence: high; commits: e18f43ddade6, 822388fe9236; files: ui/src/ui/app-scroll.ts, ui/src/ui/app-scroll.test.ts, ui/src/ui/app-chat.ts)
  • nickmopen: The merged programmatic-scroll guard PR changed the same helper and state path that this follow-lock patch now adjusts for upward user interruptions. (role: introduced related programmatic-scroll guard; confidence: high; commits: b90f28e89506; files: ui/src/ui/app-scroll.ts, ui/src/ui/app-scroll.test.ts, ui/src/ui/app.ts)
  • BunsDev: Recent WebChat auto-scroll mode work added the persisted always/near-bottom/off setting that this patch preserves while changing manual interruption semantics. (role: adjacent auto-scroll settings contributor; confidence: medium; commits: 256377c029f6; files: ui/src/ui/app-scroll.ts, ui/src/ui/app-scroll.test.ts, ui/src/ui/storage.ts)
  • Shakker: They added the new-messages indicator surface and current blame on the central helper points at a recent current-main snapshot under this author.

  • enis-uys: They authored the older overlapping WebChat scroll-interrupt repair that maintainers should compare before landing only one implementation. (role: parallel repair contributor; confidence: medium; commits: cf25d824345a; files: ui/src/ui/app-scroll.ts, ui/src/ui/app-scroll.test.ts, ui/src/ui/views/chat.ts)
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.

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.

Land-ready after maintainer fixup.

Summary:

  • Preserves WebChat backscroll during streaming after the user scrolls up.
  • Added a maintainer follow-up so forced initial/tab-entry scroll still bypasses the follow lock.
  • Added regression coverage for the forced-scroll/follow-lock interaction.

Verification:

  • git diff --check origin/main...HEAD
  • node_modules/.bin/oxfmt --check ui/src/ui/app-scroll.ts ui/src/ui/app-scroll.test.ts ui/src/ui/app.ts

##### Highlights

- Telegram and WhatsApp channel delivery are richer and less brittle: Telegram can send structured rich text with tables, lists, expandable blockquotes, prompt-preserving CLI backend delivery, retired native draft migration, and safer rich-media boundaries, while WhatsApp now honors configured ACP bindings.

- Agent and Gateway recovery is sharper across account-scoped DM sends, generated media completions, restart shutdown aborts, yielded subagent pauses, yielded cron media, heartbeat dedupe, session identity prompts, and unknown OpenAI agent selector rejection.

- Provider/model handling expands and tightens with GLM-5.2, Claude Haiku 4.5 catalog rows, OpenRouter and Google Vertex provider-prefix normalization, managed SecretRef auth, bounded model browse discovery, storeless OpenAI Responses replay gating, and Claude 4.5 Copilot tool-streaming safety.

- `/usage` and reply payload hooks now have a native full footer renderer, default template, fixed-decimal formatting, credential-aware limits, better partial-count handling, and warnings for broken templates instead of silent bad output. ([#&#8203;92657](openclaw/openclaw#92657), [#&#8203;89835](openclaw/openclaw#89835), [#&#8203;89629](openclaw/openclaw#89629)) Thanks [@&#8203;Marvinthebored](https://github.com/Marvinthebored).
- UI and mobile flows are steadier: workspace files can collapse and start collapsed, WebChat backscroll survives streaming, the sidebar session picker remains interactive above the desktop workbench, reset soft args survive UI dispatch, stale dashboard session parent lineage is preserved, and iOS reconnects stale foreground gateways.

- Memory, state, and diagnostics recover cleaner: oversized OpenAI embedding batches split before 431s, QMD memory search stays available in transient mode, SQLite avoids WAL on NFS state volumes, stuck-session recovery scheduling no longer resets warning backoff, and Infinity chunk limits stay genuinely unbounded.

- Agent commands: support `/btw` in CLI-backed sessions and keep CLI usage-error exits classified as usage failures instead of successful runs. ([#&#8203;92669](openclaw/openclaw#92669), [#&#8203;92162](openclaw/openclaw#92162)) Thanks [@&#8203;joshavant](https://github.com/joshavant) and [@&#8203;Pandah97](https://github.com/Pandah97).

##### Fixes

- Onboarding/skills: show the Homebrew install recommendation only on macOS and Linux, so FreeBSD and other unsupported platforms no longer get a misleading brew prompt.

- Channels and delivery: preserve account-scoped DM channel send policy, rich Telegram final replies, rich Telegram tables and lists, Telegram thread-create CLI remapping, Slack outbound `message_sent` hooks, contributed message-tool schema optionality, same-channel generated media completions, and channel chunking around surrogate pairs and Infinity limits.

- Auto-reply/groups: keep ordinary group text replies on automatic final-reply delivery while allowing `message(action=send)` for files, images, and other attachments to the same group or topic. Carries forward [#&#8203;43276](openclaw/openclaw#43276); refs [#&#8203;48004](openclaw/openclaw#48004). Thanks [@&#8203;NayukiChiba](https://github.com/NayukiChiba) and [@&#8203;ShakaRover](https://github.com/ShakaRover).
- Auto-reply/skills: preserve multiline payloads for `/skill` and direct skill slash commands while keeping command-head normalization for aliases, colon syntax, and bot mentions. Fixes [#&#8203;79155](openclaw/openclaw#79155); carries forward [#&#8203;81305](openclaw/openclaw#81305). Thanks [@&#8203;web3blind](https://github.com/web3blind).
- iMessage: normalize leading NUL sent-message echo prefixes while preserving interior NUL bytes and the leading attributedBody marker handling from [#&#8203;73942](openclaw/openclaw#73942). Carries forward [#&#8203;63581](openclaw/openclaw#63581). Thanks [@&#8203;drvoss](https://github.com/drvoss).
- Discord: give generated auto-thread titles a 60-second timeout and 4,096-token reasoning-model output budget, clamped to the selected model output cap. ([#&#8203;64734](openclaw/openclaw#64734)) Thanks [@&#8203;hanamizuki](https://github.com/hanamizuki).
- Agent, cron, and Gateway runtime: mark active main sessions before restart shutdown aborts, pause yielded subagent runs whose terminal also signals abort, preserve yielded media completions, de-duplicate main-session heartbeat events, expose session identity in runtime prompts, reject unknown OpenAI agent selectors, keep generated media completions and slash-command block replies in WebChat, preserve fresh post-compaction usage while clearing stale usage snapshots, and require admin privileges for HTTP session/model override surfaces. ([#&#8203;91357](openclaw/openclaw#91357), [#&#8203;92631](openclaw/openclaw#92631), [#&#8203;92146](openclaw/openclaw#92146), [#&#8203;91287](openclaw/openclaw#91287), [#&#8203;92468](openclaw/openclaw#92468), [#&#8203;92510](openclaw/openclaw#92510), [#&#8203;91246](openclaw/openclaw#91246), [#&#8203;50795](openclaw/openclaw#50795), [#&#8203;50845](openclaw/openclaw#50845), [#&#8203;82874](openclaw/openclaw#82874), [#&#8203;92651](openclaw/openclaw#92651), [#&#8203;92646](openclaw/openclaw#92646)) Thanks [@&#8203;ooiuuii](https://github.com/ooiuuii), [@&#8203;openperf](https://github.com/openperf), [@&#8203;IWhatsskill](https://github.com/IWhatsskill), [@&#8203;ZengWen-DT](https://github.com/ZengWen-DT), [@&#8203;zhangguiping-xydt](https://github.com/zhangguiping-xydt), [@&#8203;Hollychou924](https://github.com/Hollychou924), [@&#8203;leno23](https://github.com/leno23), and [@&#8203;TurboTheTurtle](https://github.com/TurboTheTurtle).
- Agents/exec: default empty-success background completion notices on only for real chat channels, preserving explicit opt-outs and keeping generic providers silent while carrying forward the narrow UX intent from [#&#8203;39726](openclaw/openclaw#39726) and [#&#8203;46926](openclaw/openclaw#46926). Thanks [@&#8203;Sapientropic](https://github.com/Sapientropic) and [@&#8203;wenkang-xie](https://github.com/wenkang-xie).
- Providers and model replay: preserve storeless OpenAI Responses replay compatibility, avoid eager tool streaming for Claude 4.5 in Copilot, honor profile auth for SecretRef model entries, bound model browsing, strip provider prefixes where runtimes need bare IDs, and surface nested embedding fetch failures. ([#&#8203;90706](openclaw/openclaw#90706), [#&#8203;75393](openclaw/openclaw#75393), [#&#8203;90686](openclaw/openclaw#90686), [#&#8203;92247](openclaw/openclaw#92247), [#&#8203;92627](openclaw/openclaw#92627), [#&#8203;91218](openclaw/openclaw#91218), [#&#8203;92628](openclaw/openclaw#92628)) Thanks [@&#8203;snowzlm](https://github.com/snowzlm), [@&#8203;Kailigithub](https://github.com/Kailigithub), [@&#8203;rohitjavvadi](https://github.com/rohitjavvadi), [@&#8203;samson910022](https://github.com/samson910022), [@&#8203;liuhao1024](https://github.com/liuhao1024), [@&#8203;bymle](https://github.com/bymle), and [@&#8203;mushuiyu886](https://github.com/mushuiyu886).
- Memory, state, diagnostics, and config: split header-too-large embedding batches, keep QMD memory search enabled in transient mode, avoid SQLite WAL on NFS volumes, preserve recovery scheduling outside stuck-session warning backoff, and keep shell environment fallbacks contained in config write tests. ([#&#8203;92650](openclaw/openclaw#92650), [#&#8203;92618](openclaw/openclaw#92618), [#&#8203;92639](openclaw/openclaw#92639), [#&#8203;91247](openclaw/openclaw#91247), [#&#8203;92752](openclaw/openclaw#92752)) Thanks [@&#8203;mushuiyu886](https://github.com/mushuiyu886), [@&#8203;TurboTheTurtle](https://github.com/TurboTheTurtle), [@&#8203;849261680](https://github.com/849261680), and [@&#8203;gnanam1990](https://github.com/gnanam1990).
- Workspace setup state: store setup completion outside the workspace dot directory using an OpenClaw-named root file, migrate valid legacy state forward, and avoid clobbering generic root `workspace-state.json` files for TigerFS-style dot-path compatibility. This Clownfish replacement carries forward the focused [#&#8203;53326](openclaw/openclaw#53326) fix idea because the original branch was closed and uneditable. ([#&#8203;53326](openclaw/openclaw#53326), [#&#8203;44783](openclaw/openclaw#44783), [#&#8203;39446](openclaw/openclaw#39446)) Thanks [@&#8203;1qh](https://github.com/1qh).
- UI/mobile/TUI: preserve dashboard session parent lineage, WebChat backscroll, reset soft command args, sidebar session picker interactivity, collapsed workspace files, resolved `/model` confirmation refs, and stale foreground iOS Gateway reconnects. ([#&#8203;90658](openclaw/openclaw#90658), [#&#8203;92622](openclaw/openclaw#92622), [#&#8203;91353](openclaw/openclaw#91353), [#&#8203;92705](openclaw/openclaw#92705), [#&#8203;92779](openclaw/openclaw#92779), [#&#8203;92773](openclaw/openclaw#92773), [#&#8203;92552](openclaw/openclaw#92552)) Thanks [@&#8203;luoyanglang](https://github.com/luoyanglang), [@&#8203;TurboTheTurtle](https://github.com/TurboTheTurtle), [@&#8203;zhouhe-xydt](https://github.com/zhouhe-xydt), [@&#8203;NianJiuZst](https://github.com/NianJiuZst), [@&#8203;shakkernerd](https://github.com/shakkernerd), [@&#8203;NarahariRaghava](https://github.com/NarahariRaghava), and [@&#8203;Solvely-Colin](https://github.com/Solvely-Colin).
- TUI: reload the active session after external `/new` or `/reset` session-change events so stale transcript and stream state clear promptly. Fixes [#&#8203;38966](openclaw/openclaw#38966); carries forward [#&#8203;40472](openclaw/openclaw#40472). Thanks [@&#8203;yizhanzjz](https://github.com/yizhanzjz) and [@&#8203;wsyjh8](https://github.com/wsyjh8).
- Control UI: preserve Gateway Access tokens during same-normalized WebSocket URL edits and reload gateway-scoped tokens when switching endpoints. Fixes [#&#8203;41545](openclaw/openclaw#41545); repairs [#&#8203;42001](openclaw/openclaw#42001) with additional source PRs [#&#8203;41546](openclaw/openclaw#41546), [#&#8203;41552](openclaw/openclaw#41552), and [#&#8203;41718](openclaw/openclaw#41718).

- Gateway CLI: tolerate a single transient clean WebSocket close before `hello-ok` so one-shot RPC calls reconnect instead of failing noisily, while repeated clean pre-hello closes still surface. Carries forward source PRs [#&#8203;54475](openclaw/openclaw#54475) and [#&#8203;54774](openclaw/openclaw#54774); [#&#8203;85253](openclaw/openclaw#85253) covered adjacent connect assembly diagnostics. Thanks [@&#8203;ruanrrn](https://github.com/ruanrrn).
- Gateway/Linux: keep root-owned systemd user service lifecycle commands on root's user manager when a stale `SUDO_USER` remains in a root shell with root's user bus environment. Fixes [#&#8203;81410](openclaw/openclaw#81410). Thanks [@&#8203;Ericksza](https://github.com/Ericksza) and [@&#8203;ChuckClose-tech](https://github.com/ChuckClose-tech).
- Release and test reliability: extend slow Gateway/full-suite watchdogs, split local full-suite shards when throttled, stabilize plugin auth marker fixtures, avoid brittle provider-ref error text, and keep QA Lab bootstrap selection assertions aligned with flow-only scenarios. ([#&#8203;92652](openclaw/openclaw#92652))
- macOS Peekaboo bridge: update the embedded Peekaboo package to 3.5.2 and route bundled-skill CLI commands through the OpenClaw app bridge so they inherit its Screen Recording and Accessibility grants.
- Agent routing: route subagent RPC callbacks addressed to an agent-shaped `--to` target to the correct session key instead of falling back to the main session, so WeChat (and other channel) session-key callbacks reach the intended subagent session. ([#&#8203;90231](openclaw/openclaw#90231)) Thanks [@&#8203;zhangguiping-xydt](https://github.com/zhangguiping-xydt).
- Cron: preserve model, fallback, thinking, timeout, light-context, unsafe-content, and tool allow-list overrides on implicit text payloads by promoting them to agent turns, while explicit system events still prune those fields. Fixes [#&#8203;28905](openclaw/openclaw#28905); carries forward [#&#8203;64060](openclaw/openclaw#64060) and [#&#8203;73946](openclaw/openclaw#73946). Thanks [@&#8203;liaoandi](https://github.com/liaoandi).
- QQBot delivery: keep markdown table chunks self-contained across message boundaries by preserving table state across block deliveries, flushing unfinished table-row fragments as plain text, and detecting short pipe-terminated rows by column count so split rows are not sent as malformed markdown. ([#&#8203;92428](openclaw/openclaw#92428)) Thanks [@&#8203;sliverp](https://github.com/sliverp).
