- Cron/restart catch-up semantics: replay interrupted recurring jobs and missed immediate cron slots on startup without replaying interrupted one-shot jobs, with guarded missed-slot probing to avoid malformed-schedule startup aborts and duplicate-trigger drift after restart. (from #34466, #34896, #34625, #33206) Thanks @dunamismax, @dsantoreis, @Octane0411, and @Sid-Qin.
7171
- Agents/session usage tracking: preserve accumulated usage metadata on embedded Pi runner error exits so failed turns still update session `totalTokens` from real usage instead of stale prior values. (#34275) thanks @RealKai42.
7272
- Slack/reaction thread context routing: carry Slack native DM channel IDs through inbound context and threading tool resolution so reaction targets resolve consistently for DM `To=user:*` sessions (including `toolContext.currentChannelId` fallback behavior). (from #34831; overlaps #34440, #34502, #34483, #32754) Thanks @dunamismax.

- Subagents/announce completion scoping: scope nested direct-child completion aggregation to the current requester run window, harden frozen completion capture for deterministic descendant synthesis, and route completion announce delivery through parent-agent announce turns with provenance-aware internal events. (#35080) Thanks @tyler6204.
7374
- Nodes/system.run approval hardening: use explicit argv-mutation signaling when regenerating prepared `rawCommand`, and cover the `system.run.prepare -> system.run` handoff so direct PATH-based `nodes.run` commands no longer fail with `rawCommand does not match command`. (#33137) thanks @Sid-Qin.
7475
- Models/custom provider headers: propagate `models.providers.<name>.headers` across inline, fallback, and registry-found model resolution so header-authenticated proxies consistently receive configured request headers. (#27490) thanks @Sid-Qin.
7576
- Ollama/custom provider headers: forward resolved model headers into native Ollama stream requests so header-authenticated Ollama proxies receive configured request headers. (#24337) thanks @echoVic.

215215
- The announce step runs inside the sub-agent session (not the requester session).
216216
- If the sub-agent replies exactly `ANNOUNCE_SKIP`, nothing is posted.
217-
- Otherwise the announce reply is posted to the requester chat channel via a follow-up `agent` call (`deliver=true`).
217+
- Otherwise delivery depends on requester depth:
218+
- top-level requester sessions use a follow-up `agent` call with external delivery (`deliver=true`)
219+
- nested requester subagent sessions receive an internal follow-up injection (`deliver=false`) so the orchestrator can synthesize child results in-session
220+
- if a nested requester subagent session is gone, OpenClaw falls back to that session's requester when available
221+
- Child completion aggregation is scoped to the current requester run when building nested completion findings, preventing stale prior-run child outputs from leaking into the current announce.
218222
- Announce replies preserve thread/topic routing when available on channel adapters.
219223
- Announce context is normalized to a stable internal event block:
220224
- source (`subagent` or `cron`)
