Bug Description

Unable to have two accounts for Slack @mention. Slack socket mode connections succeed when using the accounts object in channels.slack, but no events are ever received. Direct messages work fine but unable to do @mentions. The same bot token works correctly when placed at the top level of channels.slack where @mentions work fine.

Environment

• OpenClaw version: 2026.2.14
• Platform: Raspberry Pi (aarch64), Debian, Node 22.22.0
• Slack mode: Socket mode

Reproduction

Working config (top-level tokens)

{
  "channels": {
    "slack": {
      "enabled": true,
      "groupPolicy": "open",
      "dmPolicy": "open",
      "botToken": "xoxb-...",
      "appToken": "xapp-...",
      "name": "bot1"
    }
  },
  "bindings": [
    { "agentId": "bot1", "match": { "channel": "slack" } }
  ]
}

Logs show [default] starting provider → slack socket mode connected → events flow normally, @mentions in channels work.

Broken config (accounts object, same token)

{
  "channels": {
    "slack": {
      "enabled": true,
      "groupPolicy": "open",
      "dmPolicy": "open",
      "accounts": {
        "default": {
          "name": "bot1",
          "botToken": "xoxb-...",
          "appToken": "xapp-..."
        }
      }
    }
  },
  "bindings": [
    { "agentId": "bot1", "match": { "channel": "slack", "accountId": "default" } }
  ]
}

Logs show [default] starting provider → slack socket mode connected → zero events received. No log entries at all when @mentioning the bot in a channel. DMs also stop working.

What was tested

Key finding

The accounts object itself is the problem. Even with a single account named default using the exact same token that works at the top level, events stop flowing. The socket handshake completes but the event listener/handler does not appear to receive any Slack events.

Expected behavior

Events should be received and processed identically whether tokens are at the top level or inside the accounts object.
