 - WhatsApp: update Baileys to `7.0.0-rc12`.
 - Build: suppress per-locale `rolldown-plugin-dts:fake-js` CommonJS dts warnings emitted while bundling the intentionally-inlined `zod/v4/locales/*.d.cts` files, so `pnpm build` output stays readable after the 0.25.1 plugin bump. Thanks @romneyda.
+- CLI/nodes: route lazy plugin-registration logs to stderr for JSON-mode `openclaw nodes` commands so stdout stays parseable. (#84684) Thanks @TurboTheTurtle.
 - Approvals: route manual `/approve` decisions through the trusted approval runtime so active exec and plugin approvals no longer look unknown or expired.
 - Mac app: update the About settings copyright year to 2026. (#84385) Thanks @pejmanjohn.
 - Dependencies: update `@openclaw/fs-safe` to `0.2.7` so OpenClaw's default Python-helper-off policy keeps best-effort Node write fallbacks for private stores, secret writes, run logs, and media attachments on Linux/macOS.
