rish2jain · OpenClaw Bot · web-flow · commit 6675aacb5eb4 · 2026-02-27T07:56:09.000-08:00
* feat(memory-lancedb): add custom baseUrl and dimensions support

* fix(memory-lancedb): strict model typing and safe dimension resolution

* style: fix formatting in memory-lancedb config

* fix(memory-lancedb): sync manifest schema with new embedding options
