 ### Fixes
 
+- Memory/CLI: declare the built-in `local` embedding provider in the memory-core manifest, so standalone `openclaw memory status`, `index`, and `search` can resolve local embeddings just like the gateway runtime. Fixes #70836. (#70873) Thanks @mattznojassist.
 - Gateway/WebChat: preserve image attachments for text-only primary models by offloading them as media refs instead of dropping them, so configured image tools can still inspect the original file. Fixes #68513, #44276, #51656, #70212.
 - Plugins/Google Meet: hang up delegated Twilio calls on leave, clean up Chrome realtime audio bridges when launch fails, and use a flat provider-safe tool schema.
 - Media understanding: honor explicit image-model configuration before native-vision skips, including `agents.defaults.imageModel`, `tools.media.image.models`, and provider image defaults such as MiniMax VL when the active chat model is text-only. Fixes #47614, #63722, #69171.
