Summary

  • Forward frequency_penalty, presence_penalty, and seed from inbound POST /v1/chat/completions through streamParams → runtime stream wrapper → OpenAI transport, so client-supplied sampling parameters reach the upstream provider.
  • Extend AgentStreamParams with frequencyPenalty, presencePenalty, and seed fields. Forward them through createStreamFnWithExtraParams (extra-params layer) and buildOpenAICompletionsParams (transport layer) to the provider request payload.
  • Add gateway-side validation for the new parameters in validateOpenAiSamplingParams: penalty params constrained to [-2.0, 2.0], seed must be an integer — matching the existing temperature/top_p validation contract.
  • Resolve aliased param keys with camelCase (runtime/request) priority over snake_case (config) so per-request gateway overrides take precedence over configured model defaults.

Verification

  • pnpm test src/agents/pi-embedded-runner/extra-params.sampling.test.ts — 8/8 (existing sampling tests, no regressions)
  • pnpm test src/agents/openai-transport-stream.test.ts — 168/168 (no regressions)
  • pnpm test src/gateway/openai-http.usage.test.ts src/gateway/openai-http.image-budget.test.ts — 7/7 (no regressions)
  • pnpm check:changed — clean (locally)
  • codex review — "No discrete correctness issues were identified in the provided diff."
  • Fork CI (Lellansin/openclaw, run 26092092169) — 54/54 jobs passed

Real behavior proof

  • Behavior or issue addressed: OpenAI-compatible Gateway HTTP requests now forward client-supplied frequency_penalty, presence_penalty, and seed from POST /v1/chat/completions through streamParams to the upstream OpenAI-compatible provider. Invalid values are rejected at the gateway boundary with deterministic OpenAI-compatible 400 errors.

  • Real environment tested: Local dev gateway on loopback port 18790, built from commit 044a61060a with pnpm build. Runtime Node v24.14.1, CLI/gateway version 2026.5.19. Default agent model deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash. Gateway token and provider key read from local OpenClaw config.

  • Exact steps or command run after this patch: Ran pnpm build, then stopped the managed gateway service, started a dev gateway on port 18790, and posted 7 authenticated local requests to http://127.0.0.1:18790/v1/chat/completions: a happy-path request, three invalid-value probes (out-of-range frequency_penalty, out-of-range presence_penalty, fractional seed), and three boundary probes (frequency_penalty: -2.0, presence_penalty: 2.0, seed: -1).

  • Evidence after fix:

    Happy-path request (frequency_penalty: 0.5, presence_penalty: 0.3, seed: 42):

    {"id":"chatcmpl_91ca1153-...","object":"chat.completion","model":"openclaw","choices":[{"message":{"role":"assistant","content":"Hi"}}],"usage":{"prompt_tokens":16847,"completion_tokens":16,"total_tokens":16863}}

    Out-of-range frequency_penalty: 3:

    {"error":{"message":"`frequency_penalty` must be between -2.0 and 2.0.","type":"invalid_request_error"}}

    Out-of-range presence_penalty: -3:

    {"error":{"message":"`presence_penalty` must be between -2.0 and 2.0.","type":"invalid_request_error"}}

    Non-integer seed: 42.5:

    {"error":{"message":"`seed` must be an integer.","type":"invalid_request_error"}}

    Boundary frequency_penalty: -2.0 → 200 OK
    Boundary presence_penalty: 2.0 → 200 OK
    Negative integer seed: -1 → 200 OK (rejected upstream by DeepSeek as invalid u64, not a gateway issue)

  • Observed result after fix: Valid frequency_penalty/presence_penalty/seed requests completed successfully through the local OpenAI-compatible gateway. Invalid-value probes were intercepted with deterministic OpenAI-compatible 400 errors matching the existing temperature/top_p validation pattern. Boundary values within spec were accepted.

  • What was not tested: /v1/responses endpoint (uses a different code path); top_k and repetition_penalty were intentionally excluded from this PR as they are not standard OpenAI Chat Completions fields and require per-provider gating.

Codex review: needs maintainer review before merge. Reviewed May 25, 2026, 7:27 PM ET / 23:27 UTC.

Summary
The branch forwards frequency_penalty, presence_penalty, and seed through the OpenAI-compatible Chat Completions gateway, agent stream params, extra-param wrapper, OpenAI transport payload, docs, and tests.

PR surface: Source +83, Tests +165, Docs +3. Total +251 across 9 files.

Reproducibility: yes. source-level. Current main only forwards adjacent token, temperature, top-p, and response-format fields, while the PR body supplies after-fix local gateway output for valid, invalid, and boundary cases.

Review metrics: 1 noteworthy metric.

  • OpenAI-Compatible Request Params: 3 added (frequency_penalty, presence_penalty, seed). These are new public gateway request fields with validation and upstream forwarding behavior that maintainers should consciously accept before merge.

Merge readiness
Overall: 🐚 platinum hermit
Proof: 🦞 diamond lobster
Patch quality: 🐚 platinum hermit
Result: ready for maintainer review.

Overall follows the weaker of proof and patch quality, so missing proof can cap an otherwise strong patch.

Rank-up moves:

  • Maintainers choose standard-field forwarding versus provider/model capability gating before merge.

Risk before merge

  • Existing clients that currently send invalid frequency_penalty, presence_penalty, or fractional seed fields will receive gateway 400 responses instead of having those fields ignored.
  • OpenAI-compatible providers or models that do not accept one of these fields may start returning upstream errors when clients or config include them.
  • Maintainers still need to choose between unconditional best-effort standard-field forwarding and provider/model capability gating.

Maintainer options:

  1. Accept Standard-Field Forwarding
    Maintainers can accept the documented best-effort behavior that standard Chat Completions fields are validated and forwarded when present, with provider-specific rejection still possible.
  2. Gate By Provider Capability
    Require the branch to forward these fields only when provider/model metadata declares support if avoiding new upstream rejection is more important than broad compatibility.
  3. Pause For API Policy
    Pause this PR if maintainers want a wider provider-parameter policy before adding more first-class OpenAI-compatible request fields.

Next step before merge
Needs maintainer compatibility-policy review; there is no narrow automated repair unless maintainers choose provider gating or a different validation contract.

Security
Cleared: The diff changes authenticated gateway parameter validation/forwarding plus docs/tests, with no new dependency, workflow, secret, permission, or code-execution surface found.

Review details

Best possible solution:

Land this path once maintainers explicitly accept the compatibility policy, or require provider/model capability gating before merge if best-effort forwarding is too broad.

Do we have a high-confidence way to reproduce the issue?

Yes, source-level. Current main only forwards adjacent token, temperature, top-p, and response-format fields, while the PR body supplies after-fix local gateway output for valid, invalid, and boundary cases.

Is this the best way to solve the issue?

Likely yes, with a policy caveat. Threading these fields through the existing stream-param and OpenAI Chat Completions transport path matches the current temperature/top_p pattern, but maintainers still need to choose unconditional forwarding or provider-specific gating.

AGENTS.md: found and applied where relevant.

Codex review notes: model gpt-5.5, reasoning high; reviewed against bef0ba8f5a7e.

Label changes

Label changes:

  • add proof: sufficient: Contributor real behavior proof is sufficient. The PR body includes after-fix local gateway live output showing successful forwarding and deterministic invalid-value 400 responses, and the latest head only adds focused coverage on top of that behavior.

Label justifications:

  • P2: This is a bounded gateway/provider compatibility improvement with user impact and workarounds, but no active outage evidence.
  • merge-risk: 🚨 compatibility: Merging changes previously ignored request fields into validated and forwarded fields, which can create new gateway 400s or upstream provider errors.

What I checked:

  • Current gateway omits the requested fields: Current main's OpenAI-compatible request type and streamParams builder include token caps, temperature, top_p, and response_format, but not frequency_penalty, presence_penalty, or seed. (src/gateway/openai-http.ts:69, bef0ba8f5a7e)
  • Current extra-param wrapper omits the requested fields: Current main maps configured/runtime extra params for temperature, topP, token caps, responseFormat, transport, and cache params, with no penalty or seed mapping. (src/agents/pi-embedded-runner/extra-params.ts:428, bef0ba8f5a7e)
  • Current OpenAI transport omits the upstream payload fields: Current main's Chat Completions payload builder emits adjacent sampling fields but does not emit frequency_penalty, presence_penalty, or seed. (src/agents/openai-transport-stream.ts:3497, bef0ba8f5a7e)
  • PR diff adds the requested pipeline and tests: The PR file list shows additions across gateway request parsing/validation, shared stream params, extra-param forwarding, OpenAI transport payload emission, docs, and focused gateway/transport tests for the three new fields. (src/gateway/openai-http.ts:80, 9abb9466d991)
  • Real behavior proof is present: The PR body includes after-fix local gateway live output for a successful request, deterministic invalid penalty/seed 400 responses, and boundary probes, with no private token values shown. (9abb9466d991)
  • Dependency contract check: The official OpenAI OpenAPI schema lists Chat Completions frequency_penalty and presence_penalty as numeric fields with -2..2 bounds and seed as an integer field, matching the PR's standard-field shape.

Likely related people:

  • Lellansin: Prior merged work added adjacent OpenAI-compatible sampling and response-format forwarding through the same gateway, extra-param, and transport path, and this branch extends that surface. (role: recent adjacent contributor; confidence: high; commits: 78e03e300482, 8503418274a3, 6a0d501fc34d; files: src/gateway/openai-http.ts, src/agents/pi-embedded-runner/extra-params.ts, src/agents/openai-transport-stream.ts)
  • steipete: Recent history shows direct commits and PR-branch test work around OpenAI-compatible docs, token aliases, response-format forwarding, and this PR's gateway coverage. (role: recent gateway and transport merger; confidence: high; commits: d5eec80e3403, 5bb94caef814, 9abb9466d991; files: src/gateway/openai-http.ts, src/agents/openai-transport-stream.ts, docs/gateway/openai-http-api.md)
  • vincentkoc: History shows OpenAI-compatible gateway endpoint and agent-first compatibility work touching the same public gateway/docs surface. (role: adjacent OpenAI-compatible gateway contributor; confidence: medium; commits: d10669629d73, eaad4ad1be38; files: src/gateway/openai-http.ts, docs/gateway/openai-http-api.md, src/agents/command/shared-types.ts)
What the crustacean ranks mean
  • 🦀 challenger crab: rare, exceptional readiness with strong proof, clean implementation, and convincing validation.
  • 🦞 diamond lobster: very strong readiness with only minor maintainer review expected.
  • 🐚 platinum hermit: good normal PR, likely mergeable with ordinary maintainer review.
  • 🦐 gold shrimp: useful signal, but proof or patch confidence is still limited.
  • 🦪 silver shellfish: thin signal; proof, validation, or implementation needs work.
  • 🧂 unranked krab: not merge-ready because proof is missing/unusable or there are serious correctness or safety concerns.
  • 🌊 off-meta tidepool: rating does not apply to this item.

Shiny media proof means a screenshot, video, or linked artifact directly shows the changed behavior. Runtime, network, CSP, and security claims still need visible diagnostics.

How this review workflow works
  • ClawSweeper keeps one durable marker-backed review comment per issue or PR.
  • Re-runs edit this comment so the latest verdict, findings, and automation markers stay together instead of adding duplicate bot comments.
  • A fresh review can be triggered by eligible @clawsweeper re-review comments, exact-item GitHub events, scheduled/background review runs, or manual workflow dispatch.
  • PR/issue authors and users with repository write access can comment @clawsweeper re-review or @clawsweeper re-run on an open PR or issue to request a fresh review only.
  • Maintainers can also comment @clawsweeper review to request a fresh review only.
  • Fresh-review commands do not start repair, autofix, rebase, CI repair, or automerge.
  • Maintainer-only repair and merge flows require explicit commands such as @clawsweeper autofix, @clawsweeper automerge, @clawsweeper fix ci, or @clawsweeper address review.
  • Maintainers can comment @clawsweeper explain to ask for more context, or @clawsweeper stop to stop active automation.

Copy: My PR egg hatched a 🥚 common Tiny Patch Peep in ClawSweeper.

What is this egg doing here?
  • Eggs appear after the PR passes real-behavior proof. It is here for vibes, not verdicts: it does not change labels, ratings, merge decisions, or automation.
  • The shell reacts to review momentum: open follow-up work warms it up, re-review makes it wobble, and a clean final review lets it hatch.
  • Hatchability usually comes from sufficient real-behavior proof, no blocking P0/P1/P2 findings, no security attention needed, and clean correctness. A merged PR is already final, so merge makes the egg hatchable independently.
  • The hatch is seeded from this repository and PR number, so the same PR keeps the same creature; the reviewed head SHA can only change safe visual details.
  • Rarity is just collectible sparkle: 🥚 common, 🌱 uncommon, 💎 rare, ✨ glimmer, and 🌈 legendary.

* fix(doctor): prune stale bundled plugin paths (openclaw#85038)

* fix: honor OPENCLAW_HOME defaults (openclaw#85802)

* fix: honor OPENCLAW_HOME defaults

* fix(install): preserve openclaw home upgrade defaults

* fix(install): satisfy shellcheck tilde patterns

* fix(config): do not suppress recovery retry after failed backup restore (openclaw#85787)

maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigRead unconditionally recorded
lastObservedSuspiciousSignature in health state even when
restoredFromBackup was false (copyFile failed). The guard at
resolveConfigReadRecoveryContext then prevented the same
signature from ever being retried, permanently accepting the
suspicious config on every subsequent launch.

Only record the dedup signature when the backup restore
actually succeeded.

* fix(docker): restore config parent ownership

* fix(pi-runner): flush blocks after compaction retry (openclaw#85288) (thanks @spacegeologist)

Behavior addressed: Embedded PI compaction retry now drains block replies again after the retry wait resolves, so retry-generated replies are not left behind while preserving aggregate-timeout fallback behavior.
Real environment tested: local OpenClaw focused Pi runner test shard plus contributor local live-output proof in the PR body.
Exact steps or command run after this patch: pnpm test src/agents/pi-embedded-runner/run/attempt.spawn-workspace.context-engine.test.ts src/agents/pi-embedded-runner/run/compaction-retry-aggregate-timeout.test.ts; .agents/skills/autoreview/scripts/autoreview --mode branch --base origin/main
Evidence after fix: 2 test files passed, 55 tests passed; final autoreview clean with no accepted/actionable findings.
Observed result after fix: the runner flushes before the compaction wait, waits for compaction retry, then performs a second idempotent flush when the wait resolves without timing out.
What was not tested: fresh external-channel live retry by this agent; PR retains contributor live-output proof for the delayed channel adapter path.

Thanks @spacegeologist.

### Release Notes

<details>
<summary>openclaw/openclaw (ghcr.io/openclaw/openclaw)</summary>

### [`v2026.5.26`](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.md#2026526)

[Compare Source](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/compare/v2026.5.22...v2026.5.26)

##### Highlights

- Faster Gateway and replies: startup avoids repeated plugin, channel, session, usage-cost, warning, scheduled-service, and filesystem scans; visible replies separate user-facing sends from slower follow-up work; Gateway runtime/session caches churn less under load.
- Transcripts are core: transcript-backed meeting summaries, source-provider chunks, cleaned user turns, media provenance, Codex mirrors, WebChat replies, and CLI/TUI replay now use one more reliable transcript path.
- More channels are production-ready: Telegram keeps typing/progress context and forum topics, iMessage handles attachment roots, remote media staging, and duplicate local Messages sources, WhatsApp restores group/media behavior, Discord improves voice playback and model picking, and Signal/iMessage/WhatsApp get reaction approvals.
- Better voice and Talk: realtime Talk runs can be inspected, steered, cancelled, or followed up from Web UI and Discord voice; wake-name handling is more tolerant without letting ambient speech trigger agents.
- Safer content boundaries: Browser snapshot reads honor SSRF policy, system-event text cannot spoof nested prompt markers, fetched file text is wrapped as external content, ClickClack inbound sender allowlists run before agent dispatch, stale device tokens are rejected, and serialized tool-call text is scrubbed from replies.
- Providers, Codex, and local models are steadier: named auth profiles, OpenAI sampling params, Codex app-server resume/timeout/usage-limit recovery, dynamic tool-schema guards, xAI usage-limit surfacing, Ollama top-p normalization, and local approval resolution reduce provider-specific dead ends.
- More reliable install/update/release paths: Alpine installs, trusted runtime fallback roots, stable update channels, Docker/package timeouts, Windows Scheduled Tasks, Windows/macOS proof lanes, Testbox/Crabbox delegation, plugin publish checks, and macOS runner bootstraps all got hardened.
- Better observability: Activity tab, gateway secret-prep traces, tool/model stream progress, explicit fast-mode status, systemd Gateway hygiene, OpenTelemetry LLM spans, release performance evidence, and richer telemetry signals make failures easier to inspect.

##### Changes

- Transcripts: add core transcript capture and source-provider support for transcript-backed meeting summaries, including the renamed Transcripts docs, CLI surface, source-provider chunks, and cleaned user-turn persistence.
- Auth: add named model login profiles and supported credential migration for Hermes, OpenCode, and Codex auth profiles, with explicit opt-out and non-interactive controls. ([#&#8203;85667](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85667)) Thanks [@&#8203;fuller-stack-dev](https://github.com/fuller-stack-dev).
- Diagnostics: trace gateway secret preparation, classify skill/tool usage, surface model stream progress, add OpenTelemetry LLM content spans, and expose alertable telemetry for blocked tools, failover, stale sessions, liveness, oversized payloads, and webhook ingress. ([#&#8203;83019](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83019), [#&#8203;80370](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80370), [#&#8203;86191](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86191))
- Channels: add Signal reaction approvals, iMessage thumb approval reactions, and WhatsApp thumb approval reaction support so mobile approval flows work without textual `/approve` commands. ([#&#8203;85894](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85894), [#&#8203;85952](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85952), [#&#8203;85477](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85477))
- Agents/API: forward OpenAI sampling params through the Gateway and expose estimated context-budget status for active agent runs. ([#&#8203;84094](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84094))
- TUI/status: queue prompts submitted while an agent is busy and show explicit fast-mode state plus richer systemd Gateway hygiene in status output. ([#&#8203;86722](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86722), [#&#8203;87115](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87115), [#&#8203;86976](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86976))
- Exec approvals: hide durable approval actions that are unavailable for the current prompt and keep approval runtime tokens local-only so stale prompts cannot offer misleading controls. ([#&#8203;86270](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86270), [#&#8203;86359](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86359))
- Plugin SDK: add reaction approval helpers and keep diagnostic event root exports discoverable across function-name and alias-bound module graphs. ([#&#8203;86735](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86735), [#&#8203;87084](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87084))
- Android/iOS: add the Android pair-new-gateway action and improve mobile Talk mode surfaces, including iOS realtime Talk mode and Android offline voice/gateway recovery. ([#&#8203;86798](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86798), [#&#8203;86355](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86355)) Thanks [@&#8203;ngutman](https://github.com/ngutman).
- Performance: cache plugin metadata snapshots, package realpaths, stable gateway metadata, model cost indexes, channel resolution, usage-cost indexes, and session/auth hot-path facts so common Gateway and reply paths do less rediscovery. ([#&#8203;84649](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84649), [#&#8203;85843](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85843), [#&#8203;86517](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86517), [#&#8203;86678](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86678))
- Voice: expose shared realtime turn-context tracking through the realtime voice SDK and reuse it for Discord speaker attribution and wake-name context recovery.
- Voice: reuse shared realtime output activity tracking in Google Meet command and node audio bridges, including recent-output checks for local barge-in detection.
- Voice: expose shared realtime output activity tracking through the realtime voice SDK and reuse it for Discord playback activity and barge-in decisions.
- Voice: expose shared realtime consult question matching, speakable-result extraction, and alias-aware forced-consult coordination through the realtime voice SDK, then reuse it in Gateway Talk, Voice Call, and Discord voice paths.
- Voice: share activation-name matching and consult-transcript screening through the realtime voice SDK so Discord, browser voice, and meeting surfaces can reuse one implementation.
- Cron: default `cron.maxConcurrentRuns` to 8 so scheduled automations and their isolated agent turns can make progress in parallel without explicit configuration.
- QA-Lab: add `qa coverage --match <query>` so focused proof selection can discover matching scenarios from existing metadata before running live or remote lanes.
- Discord/model picker: surface an alpha-bucket select (e.g. `A–G (12) · H–N (18) · O–Z (5)`) when the provider list or a provider's model list exceeds 25 items, so configs with `provider/*` wildcards stay one click from the right page instead of paginating through prev/next; falls back to numeric chunks when every item shares the same first letter.
- Control UI: add an ephemeral Activity tab for sanitized live tool activity summaries without persisting raw telemetry. Fixes [#&#8203;12831](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/12831). Thanks [@&#8203;BunsDev](https://github.com/BunsDev).
- Build: include `ui:build` in the `full` and `ciArtifacts` profiles of `scripts/build-all.mjs` so `pnpm build` always rebuilds `dist/control-ui` after `tsdown` cleans `dist`, removing the second-command requirement and the missing-asset failure mode for source/runtime installs and CI artifact uploads. ([#&#8203;85206](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85206))
- iOS: improve Talk mode with direct realtime voice sessions, compact toolbar status, and responsive voice waveform feedback. ([#&#8203;86355](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86355)) Thanks [@&#8203;ngutman](https://github.com/ngutman).
- Media: replace the Sharp image backend with Rastermill for metadata, resizing, EXIF orientation, and PNG alpha-preserving optimization so OpenClaw no longer installs Sharp or the WhatsApp Jimp fallback for image processing. ([#&#8203;86437](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86437))
- Codex: update the bundled Codex CLI to 0.134.0 and keep native compaction disabled for budget-triggered app-server turns so OpenClaw owns the recovery boundary. ([#&#8203;86772](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86772))

##### Fixes

- Memory/security: reject prompt-like text submitted through the explicit `memory_store` tool before embedding or storage, matching the existing auto-capture prompt-injection filter. ([#&#8203;87142](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87142))

- Gateway/security: enable the default auth rate limiter for remote non-browser and HTTP gateway auth failures when `gateway.auth.rateLimit` is unset, while preserving the loopback exemption. ([#&#8203;87148](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87148))

- Prompt hardening: route untrusted group prompt metadata through sanitized untrusted structured context while preserving trusted operator-configured group system prompts and aligning the plugin SDK docs/test helpers. ([#&#8203;87144](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87144))

- Security/content boundaries: validate Browser snapshot tab URLs against SSRF policy before ChromeMCP or direct CDP reads, sanitize queued system-event text so untrusted plugin/channel labels cannot spoof nested prompt markers, wrap fetched file text and metadata as external content, apply ClickClack `allowFrom` sender allowlists before agent dispatch, reject RPCs from invalidated device-token clients during rotation, require staged sandbox media refs, and scrub serialized tool-call text from replies. ([#&#8203;78526](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/78526), [#&#8203;87094](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87094), [#&#8203;87062](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87062), [#&#8203;83741](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83741), [#&#8203;70707](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/70707), [#&#8203;86924](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86924)) Thanks [@&#8203;zsxsoft](https://github.com/zsxsoft), [@&#8203;ttzero25](https://github.com/ttzero25), and [@&#8203;mmaps](https://github.com/mmaps).

- Transcripts/user turns: persist CLI, WebChat, media, follow-up, hook, and Codex-mirror user turns to the admitted session target; keep cleaned transcript text, inline image routing, provenance metadata, replay hooks, and fallback paths idempotent when runtimes fail or restart.

- TUI/status/onboarding/UI: queue busy TUI prompts instead of dropping them, preserve the configured default model during onboarding, show failed tool results as errors, show config-open failures in Control UI, keep status JSON plugin scans healthy, preserve xAI usage-limit errors locally, and expose explicit fast-mode/systemd state. ([#&#8203;86722](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86722), [#&#8203;87000](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87000), [#&#8203;85786](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85786), [#&#8203;87108](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87108), [#&#8203;87001](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87001), [#&#8203;86614](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86614), [#&#8203;87115](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87115), [#&#8203;86976](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86976))

- Plugin commands/SDK: preserve plugin LLM command auth, bind native plugin command dispatch to the host agent's LLM auth, keep `onDiagnosticEvent` exports discoverable through `Function.name`, stabilize diagnostic event root aliases, correlate pathless read diagnostics, suppress transient runner failures in channel command paths, and repair local approval resolution. ([#&#8203;85936](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85936), [#&#8203;87084](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87084), [#&#8203;86977](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86977), [#&#8203;87069](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87069), [#&#8203;86771](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86771))

- Codex/providers: keep WebChat delivery hints out of user prompts, avoid false queued-terminal idle timeouts, share the native hook relay registry, quarantine unsupported dynamic tool schemas, preserve Claude resumed-session system prompts, normalize greedy Ollama `top_p`, preserve per-agent thinking defaults for ingress runs, and avoid native compaction takeover on budget-triggered Codex turns. ([#&#8203;87096](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87096), [#&#8203;73950](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/73950), [#&#8203;87049](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87049), [#&#8203;86689](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86689), [#&#8203;86772](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86772))

- Gateway/perf/release: reuse startup-warning metadata and prepared auth stores, avoid cloning live-switch and lifecycle session caches on read paths, defer warning and scheduled-service fallback imports, trim Gateway session/startup/runtime CPU churn, skip duplicate turn session touches, stop chat timeout fallback cascades, drop stale subagent announce history, bound benchmark/watch/kitchen-sink teardown waits, bound macOS/package/onboarding/plugin smoke commands, bound install finalization probes, resolve Parallels npm-update commands from guest `PATH`, and bootstrap raw AWS macOS Node/pnpm commands through `/usr/bin/env`. ([#&#8203;86997](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86997))

- Reply/perf: reduce visible reply delivery latency by preserving Telegram typing/progress context, lazy-loading slash-command startup metadata, avoiding hot-path model hydration, flag-gating Codex profiler timing, deferring context compaction maintenance, and tracking delivery timing. ([#&#8203;86989](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86989), [#&#8203;86990](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86990), [#&#8203;86991](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86991), [#&#8203;86992](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86992), [#&#8203;86993](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86993), [#&#8203;86994](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86994)) Thanks [@&#8203;keshavbotagent](https://github.com/keshavbotagent).

- Reply/source delivery: keep TUI, Control UI, media, TTS, transcript, and Codex source-reply finals live without duplicate terminal events or stale replay artifacts.

- Agents/replay: repair legacy tool results before replay, preserve `sessions_spawn` transcript payloads, restore current guard checks, stage sandboxed workspace media, and keep duplicate transcripts tool display metadata from reappearing. ([#&#8203;82203](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/82203), [#&#8203;86934](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86934), [#&#8203;87025](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87025)) Thanks [@&#8203;martingarramon](https://github.com/martingarramon), [@&#8203;vincentkoc](https://github.com/vincentkoc), and [@&#8203;joshavant](https://github.com/joshavant).

- Agents/sessions: handle active-fallback failures in `sessions_send` so fallback routing reports the real failure and does not leave callers with an ambiguous dropped send. ([#&#8203;86638](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86638))

- Agents/hooks/subagents: enforce default hook agent allowlists, recover failed subagent lifecycle completions, and keep node task lifecycle cleanup from closing the Gateway listener. ([#&#8203;86101](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86101))

- Codex: project newer OpenClaw chat history into resumed app-server threads and keep Codex turn timeouts inside the Codex runtime boundary so timeouts do not poison shared app-server clients or fall through to unrelated provider fallback. ([#&#8203;86677](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86677), [#&#8203;86476](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86476)) Thanks [@&#8203;TurboTheTurtle](https://github.com/TurboTheTurtle) and [@&#8203;pashpashpash](https://github.com/pashpashpash).

- Config/doctor/update: narrow profiled tool-section doctor repair, keep runtime-injected legacy web-search provider config out of user-authored config validation, and keep prerelease tags excluded from stable updater resolution. ([#&#8203;87030](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87030), [#&#8203;86818](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86818), [#&#8203;86559](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86559)) Thanks [@&#8203;joshavant](https://github.com/joshavant), [@&#8203;luoyanglang](https://github.com/luoyanglang), and [@&#8203;stevenepalmer](https://github.com/stevenepalmer).

- Doctor/runtime: validate active bundled MCP tool schemas through the same runtime projection path so unsupported MCP input schemas are reported and quarantined instead of poisoning assistant startup.

- CLI/Windows: add a Windows-only stack-size respawn for stack-heavy startup paths, default CLI logs to local timestamps, and validate timeout/banner TTY state more strictly. ([#&#8203;87031](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87031), [#&#8203;85387](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85387)) Thanks [@&#8203;giodl73-repo](https://github.com/giodl73-repo) and [@&#8203;vincentkoc](https://github.com/vincentkoc).

([#&#8203;86814](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86814), [#&#8203;86964](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86964)) Thanks [@&#8203;Alix-007](https://github.com/Alix-007) and [@&#8203;vincentkoc](https://github.com/vincentkoc).

- Install/release: bound Docker package build, inventory, pack, and tarball preparation with process-group timeouts; pin shrinkwrap patch drift to the pnpm lock; harden macOS restart and dSYM packaging; and run release Docker/live timeout wrappers in the foreground so child processes cannot wedge gates.

- QA/Telegram: bound Telegram user credential tar and broker calls so live proof setup fails with a timeout instead of waiting for the outer Crabbox job deadline.

- QA/Tool Search: bound gateway E2E HTTP probes, run only the fixture plugin, and clean up temporary fixture trees after the compact tool-catalog proof completes.

- Telegram/network: treat `ENETDOWN` as a transient pre-connect network failure so Telegram sends, gateway unhandled-rejection handling, and cron network retries follow the same recovery path as sibling network outages. ([#&#8203;86762](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86762)) Thanks [@&#8203;TurboTheTurtle](https://github.com/TurboTheTurtle).

- Telegram: preserve inbound text entities, overlapping DM replies, account topic cache sidecars, outbound reply context, targeted bot-command mentions, durable group retry targets, forum topic names, and native progress callbacks.

- Agents/sessions: include visibility metadata on restricted `sessions_list` results so scoped counts are clearly reported without widening access or exposing hidden-session counts. ([#&#8203;86944](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86944)) Thanks [@&#8203;ferminquant](https://github.com/ferminquant).

- Gateway/DNS: validate wide-area discovery domains before deriving zone paths or writing zone files, so invalid `discovery.wideArea.domain` and `dns setup --domain` values fail with a DNS-name diagnostic instead of falling through to unrelated configuration errors. Thanks [@&#8203;mmaps](https://github.com/mmaps).

- Agents/BTW: route fallback side-question streams through the embedded stream resolver so Anthropic-compatible MiniMax requests use the same capped transport as normal chat. ([#&#8203;86312](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86312)) Thanks [@&#8203;neeravmakwana](https://github.com/neeravmakwana).

- Telegram: treat `/command@TargetBot` bot-command entities as explicit mentions for the addressed bot so `requireMention` groups no longer drop targeted commands or captions. Fixes [#&#8203;84462](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84462). ([#&#8203;86553](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86553)) Thanks [@&#8203;luoyanglang](https://github.com/luoyanglang).

- CI: bound Docker/Bash E2E tarball npm installs with `OPENCLAW_E2E_NPM_INSTALL_TIMEOUT` so package, onboarding, plugin, and upgrade lanes fail instead of hanging on a stuck npm install.

- CI: fail Parallels npm-update smoke jobs after the guest command timeout and cleanup backstop instead of only logging a timeout line.

- CI: bound kitchen-sink RPC HTTP probes so stalled gateway readiness or response bodies fail and retry instead of wedging the walker.

- CI: bound Telegram user Crabbox proof Bot API calls so stalled Telegram responses fail instead of wedging credential and desktop proof cleanup.

- CI: bound MCP channel stdio client initialization so Docker channel proof fails and closes the bridge transport instead of waiting for the outer job timeout.

- CI: keep `OPENCLAW_TESTBOX=1 pnpm check:changed` delegating to Blacksmith Testbox through Crabbox without forwarding local Testbox or worker env into the remote command.

- CI: send KILL after the TERM grace period for manual checkout fetch timeouts so stuck Testbox and workflow checkout retries cannot hang behind a wedged `git fetch`.

- CI: send KILL after the TERM grace period for Bun global install smoke command timeouts so trapped `openclaw` child processes cannot wedge the scheduled install smoke.

- iMessage: thread current channel/account inbound attachment roots into the image tool so iMessage-saved attachments under `~/Library/Messages/Attachments` (including the wildcard `/Users/*/Library/Messages/Attachments` root) are read through the existing inbound path policy instead of being rejected as `path-not-allowed`. Literal `localRoots` stays workspace-scoped. Fixes [#&#8203;30170](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/30170). ([#&#8203;86569](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86569))

- QQ Bot: respect `OPENCLAW_HOME` for outbound media path resolution so `<qqmedia>` sends no longer silently fail when `HOME` and `OPENCLAW_HOME` differ (Docker / multi-user hosts). Persisted QQ Bot data (sessions, known users, refs) stays anchored on the OS home for upgrade compatibility. Fixes [#&#8203;83562](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83562). Thanks [@&#8203;sliverp](https://github.com/sliverp).

- Control UI: keep host-local Markdown file paths inert while preserving app-relative links. ([#&#8203;86620](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86620)) Thanks [@&#8203;BryanTegomoh](https://github.com/BryanTegomoh).

- Gateway: dampen repeated unauthenticated device-required probes per URL while preserving explicit-auth and paired recovery paths. ([#&#8203;86575](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86575)) Thanks [@&#8203;ferminquant](https://github.com/ferminquant).

- IRC: store inbound channel routes with the canonical `channel:#name` target and join transient channel sends before writing. ([#&#8203;85906](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85906)) Thanks [@&#8203;Kailigithub](https://github.com/Kailigithub).

- Usage: surface unknown all-zero model pricing as missing cost entries instead of a confident `$0` total. ([#&#8203;85882](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85882)) Thanks [@&#8203;MichaelZelbel](https://github.com/MichaelZelbel).

- Agents/Codex: honor yolo app-server approval policy only for the full `never` plus `danger-full-access` case. ([#&#8203;85909](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85909)) Thanks [@&#8203;earlvanze](https://github.com/earlvanze).

- Gateway/Gmail: clear Gmail watcher renewal intervals on re-entry so hot reloads do not leak lifecycle timers. ([#&#8203;82947](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/82947)) Thanks [@&#8203;SebTardif](https://github.com/SebTardif).

- Logging: exit cleanly on broken stdout/stderr pipes without masking existing failure exit codes. ([#&#8203;80059](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80059)) Thanks [@&#8203;pavelzak](https://github.com/pavelzak).

- Gateway/security: escape transcript metadata field names while extracting oversized session line prefixes. ([#&#8203;85934](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85934)) Thanks [@&#8203;SebTardif](https://github.com/SebTardif).

- Plugins/security: validate manifest model pattern regexes with the safe-regex compiler so unsafe patterns are ignored before matching. ([#&#8203;86046](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86046)) Thanks [@&#8203;SebTardif](https://github.com/SebTardif).

- Discord: route gateway metadata REST lookups through the configured Discord proxy so proxied accounts do not fall back to direct `discord.com` connections before opening the WebSocket. Fixes [#&#8203;80227](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80227). Thanks [@&#8203;Clivilwalker](https://github.com/Clivilwalker).

- Agents/media: hydrate current-turn image attachments from filename-derived MIME types so active vision can see generated or forwarded images whose source omitted an image content type. ([#&#8203;84812](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84812)) Thanks [@&#8203;marchpure](https://github.com/marchpure).

- Agents/fs: point workspace-only scratch-path guidance at in-workspace temp directories while keeping host-root writes rejected by the tool guard. ([#&#8203;86501](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86501)) Thanks [@&#8203;tianxiaochannel-oss88](https://github.com/tianxiaochannel-oss88).

- Agents/media: keep async cron media completions scoped to their run session while preserving direct delivery for stale generated-media success and failure notifications. ([#&#8203;86529](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86529)) Thanks [@&#8203;ai-hpc](https://github.com/ai-hpc).

- Gateway: emit plugin `session_end`/`session_start` hooks when `agent.send` rotates or replaces a session id, keeping hook lifecycle state aligned with `sessions.changed` notifications. Fixes [#&#8203;83507](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83507). ([#&#8203;85875](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85875)) Thanks [@&#8203;brokemac79](https://github.com/brokemac79).

- OpenShell/SSH: reject malformed generated exec commands before sandbox/session setup so unresolved workflow placeholders fail fast instead of reaching the remote shell. Fixes [#&#8203;72373](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/72373). Thanks [@&#8203;brokemac79](https://github.com/brokemac79).

- Google: stop normalizing `gemini-3.1-flash-lite` to the retired preview endpoint and update Flash Lite alias guidance to the GA model id. Fixes [#&#8203;86151](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86151). ([#&#8203;86240](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86240)) Thanks [@&#8203;SebTardif](https://github.com/SebTardif).

- Installer: make Alpine apk installs cover Git, verify the Node runtime floor, try `nodejs-current`, and report Alpine version guidance when repositories only provide older Node packages.

- Agents/status: prefer the active Claude CLI OAuth auth label over an unused Anthropic env API-key label for equivalent runtime aliases. Fixes [#&#8203;80184](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80184). ([#&#8203;86570](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86570)) Thanks [@&#8203;brokemac79](https://github.com/brokemac79).

- Agents/media: send direct fallback for generated media still missing after an active requester wake fails. ([#&#8203;85489](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85489)) Thanks [@&#8203;fuller-stack-dev](https://github.com/fuller-stack-dev).

- Agents: derive overflow compaction budgets from provider-reported and synthetic over-budget token counts so confirmed context overflows compact before retrying. ([#&#8203;70473](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/70473)) Thanks [@&#8203;fuller-stack-dev](https://github.com/fuller-stack-dev).

- Agents/Codex: recover Codex context-window prompt errors through overflow compaction and surface reset guidance when recovery is exhausted. ([#&#8203;85542](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85542)) Thanks [@&#8203;fuller-stack-dev](https://github.com/fuller-stack-dev).

- Agents/Codex: allow Codex app-server runs to bootstrap from `CODEX_API_KEY` or `OPENAI_API_KEY` when no Codex auth profile is configured.

- Agents/Codex: keep selected Codex runtime routing on OpenAI-Codex while preserving direct OpenAI API-key compaction fallback. ([#&#8203;86408](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86408)) Thanks [@&#8203;funmerlin](https://github.com/funmerlin) and [@&#8203;VACInc](https://github.com/VACInc).

- Agent transcript: include OpenClaw agent session logs when finding local transcript candidates.

- Crabbox: bootstrap raw AWS macOS shell commands wrapped in absolute `time` paths so RSS probes can run Node and pnpm on fresh macOS runners.

- Crabbox: bootstrap raw AWS macOS shell commands even when setup statements precede Node or pnpm usage.

- TUI/local: skip unnecessary secret resolution, gateway model catalog loading, bootstrap, and skill scans in explicit local-model runs so startup reaches the model request faster.

- Sessions/doctor: load large session stores without clone amplification during read-only doctor checks and reclaim stale `sessions.json.*.tmp` sidecars. Fixes [#&#8203;56827](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/56827). Thanks [@&#8203;openperf](https://github.com/openperf).

- Tests: clean successful plugin gateway gauntlet isolated temp roots while keeping an explicit preservation switch for failed/debug runs.

- Plugins/perf: reuse derived plugin metadata snapshots for the lifetime of the process so reply-time skill setup no longer rescans plugin metadata on every turn.

- Discord/OpenAI voice: keep wake-name master consults using the current speaker context after ignored ambient transcripts and shorten the default capture silence grace.

- Doctor: skip redundant Gateway restart prompts when a recent supervisor restart leaves the Gateway healthy. Fixes [#&#8203;86518](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86518). ([#&#8203;86533](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86533)) Thanks [@&#8203;liaoyl830](https://github.com/liaoyl830).

- Cron: restore suspended cron lanes to the configured/default concurrency instead of falling back to one after quota or circuit-breaker auto-resume.

- Gateway: keep session-only Control UI tool-start mirrors flowing during diagnostic queue pressure instead of silently dropping non-terminal tool updates.

- Agents/memory: return optional not-found context for missing date-only daily memory reads instead of logging benign first-run `ENOENT` failures. Fixes [#&#8203;82928](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/82928). Thanks [@&#8203;galiniliev](https://github.com/galiniliev).

- Discord: merge streamed text captions into following media block replies so captions and attachments send as one message. ([#&#8203;86487](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86487)) Thanks [@&#8203;neeravmakwana](https://github.com/neeravmakwana).

- Gateway: avoid sending duplicate tool-event frames to Control UI connections that are subscribed by both run and session.

- Discord/OpenAI voice: accept broader edge-position fuzzy wake-name transcripts while keeping ambient speech gated.

- Discord/OpenAI voice: accept longer leading wake-name mistranscripts such as "Open Club" for OpenClaw.

- Discord/OpenAI voice: accept leading fuzzy wake-name transcripts such as "Monty" or "Moti" for a Molty agent while keeping ambient speech gated.

- Media understanding: convert HEIC and HEIF images to JPEG before image description providers run so iPhone photos work in direct and configured image-description flows. ([#&#8203;86037](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86037))

- Agents: release embedded-attempt session locks from outer teardown so post-prompt exceptions cannot wedge later requests behind `SessionWriteLockTimeoutError`. Fixes [#&#8203;86014](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86014). Thanks [@&#8203;openperf](https://github.com/openperf).

- Discord/OpenAI voice: rotate Realtime sessions at provider max duration without logging the expected session-expiry event as an error.

- Agents/media: derive bundled plugin local-media trust from plugin tool metadata instead of importing the full plugin registry on subscription paths. ([#&#8203;84409](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84409)) Thanks [@&#8203;samzong](https://github.com/samzong).

- Image tool: keep config-backed custom-provider API keys usable for auto-discovered vision models, including deferred image-tool execution without env keys or auth profiles. ([#&#8203;85733](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85733))

- Memory/local embeddings: run local GGUF embeddings in an isolated worker sidecar and degrade to configured fallback or keyword search on worker failure so native embedding crashes do not take down the Gateway. ([#&#8203;85348](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85348)) Thanks [@&#8203;osolmaz](https://github.com/osolmaz).

- Gateway: clear the runtime config snapshot before `SIGUSR1` in-process restarts so config changes survive the next gateway loop. ([#&#8203;86388](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86388)) Thanks [@&#8203;XuZehan-iCenter](https://github.com/XuZehan-iCenter).

- QQBot: derive the outbound reply watchdog from configured agent and provider timeouts so slow local model replies are not cut off at five minutes. Fixes [#&#8203;85267](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85267). ([#&#8203;85271](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85271)) Thanks [@&#8203;SymbolStar](https://github.com/SymbolStar).

- Agents/heartbeat: stop heartbeat turns after the first valid `heartbeat_respond` so repeated response loops do not burn tokens. ([#&#8203;86357](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86357)) Thanks [@&#8203;udaymanish6](https://github.com/udaymanish6).

- Tasks: keep retained lost tasks out of default status health counts, explain their cleanup window during maintenance, and prune lost task records after 24 hours instead of the general 7-day terminal retention.

- Memory-core: keep REM dreaming focused on live light-staged memories and mark staged entries as considered so old recall history no longer dominates fresh candidates. ([#&#8203;86302](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86302)) Thanks [@&#8203;SebTardif](https://github.com/SebTardif).

- Memory: abort sync instead of downgrading an existing semantic vector index to FTS-only when the configured embedding provider is temporarily unavailable. ([#&#8203;85704](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85704)) Thanks [@&#8203;yaaboo-gif](https://github.com/yaaboo-gif).

- Docker E2E: dedupe scheduler lane resources so npm/service package lanes are not over-counted and serialized unnecessarily.

- QA/diagnostics: add a collector-backed OpenTelemetry smoke lane, make the OTLP payload leak check scenario-aware, and keep source QA builds from failing on optional dependency imports resolved through pnpm's temp module path.

- Crabbox: bootstrap Git metadata for sparse remote changed gates so raw synced workspaces can run `pnpm check:changed` from the intended diff.

- xAI/LM Studio: avoid buffering ordinary bracketed or `final` prose until stream completion while watching for plain-text tool-call fallbacks.

- Doctor: warn and continue when the cron job store exists but cannot be read so later health checks still run. Fixes [#&#8203;86102](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86102). ([#&#8203;86384](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86384)) Thanks [@&#8203;1052326311](https://github.com/1052326311).

- Discord: suppress a bot's previous reply body and referenced media from prompt context when a user replies to that bot message, while keeping reply metadata for routing. ([#&#8203;86238](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86238)) Thanks [@&#8203;fuller-stack-dev](https://github.com/fuller-stack-dev).

- Discord: restore bare numeric channel IDs for outbound message-tool sends while keeping explicit DM targets unambiguous. ([#&#8203;86571](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86571)) Thanks [@&#8203;joshavant](https://github.com/joshavant).

- Docker E2E: avoid rebuilding the Control UI twice while preparing the shared OpenClaw package tarball for package-backed scenario runs.

- Tests: avoid rebuilding the Control UI twice during the installer Docker smoke now that `pnpm build` includes `ui:build`.

- Tests: give QA config mutation RPCs enough native Windows budget to finish gateway config writes and restart settle after hot scenario runs.

- Tests: keep the gateway restart-inflight QA scenario focused on restart recovery on native Windows by allowing expected embedded prompt handoff errors and using the Windows-safe timeout budget.

- QA-Lab: make the synthetic OpenAI provider honor generic `reply exactly:` directives after required kickoff reads so restart-recovery scenarios do not fall through to generic repo-summary prose.

- Gateway: abort active `agent` RPC runs during forced restart shutdown so stale in-process turns cannot keep writing a session after the Gateway lifecycle restarts.

- Crabbox: sync clean sparse worktrees through a temporary full checkout even when reusing an existing lease so tracked build-time files are not omitted.

- Build: route `scripts/ui.js` through the shared pnpm runner and keep Control UI chunking helpers in sparse-included source so native Windows Corepack builds can produce `dist/control-ui`.

- Tests: give the memory fallback QA scenario enough turn budget to exercise native Windows gateway runs instead of failing on the client timeout while the mock agent is still dispatching.

- Tests: collect QA gateway CPU/RSS metrics on native Windows and give the channel baseline enough turn budget to report slow gateway runs instead of timing out before proof.

- Install/update: bypass npm `min-release-age` policies with `--min-release-age=0` instead of `--before` so hosted installers keep working on npm versions that reject the combined config. ([#&#8203;84749](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84749)) Thanks [@&#8203;TeodoroRodrigo](https://github.com/TeodoroRodrigo).

- WebChat: keep message-tool replies visible in the chat while still summarizing internal tool results for the model. Fixes [#&#8203;86347](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86347). Thanks [@&#8203;shakkernerd](https://github.com/shakkernerd).

- Gateway/perf: fail startup benchmark samples when the Gateway process exits before benchmark teardown, including signal deaths after readiness probes.

- Gateway/perf: fail restart benchmark samples when the Gateway exits before benchmark teardown, including clean exits and signal deaths after successful restart probes.

- Agents/tests: keep model catalog visibility on static selection helpers so catalog visibility checks avoid the broad model-selection barrel import.

- Agents/commitments: serialize commitment store load-modify-save writes so concurrent heartbeat and CLI updates no longer lose dismissal, sent, or attempt state. ([#&#8203;81153](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/81153)) Thanks [@&#8203;ai-hpc](https://github.com/ai-hpc).

- xAI/LM Studio: promote plain-text tool-call fallbacks into structured tool calls and strip leaked internal tool syntax before user-facing delivery. ([#&#8203;86222](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86222)) Thanks [@&#8203;fuller-stack-dev](https://github.com/fuller-stack-dev).

- CLI: suppress benign self-update version-skew warnings during package post-update finalization.

- Gateway/perf: tighten restart and startup benchmark failure handling so long profiling runs, failed probes, and fresh Linux runners no longer produce false passing or `n/a` results.

- Checks: keep intentional Knip unused-file findings optional so full CI and sparse proof workspaces stay aligned.

- Docker: restore writable `~/.config` in runtime images. Fixes [#&#8203;85968](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85968). Thanks [@&#8203;hkoessler](https://github.com/hkoessler) and [@&#8203;Bartok9](https://github.com/Bartok9).

- Plugin SDK: keep legacy root diagnostic subscriptions connected when built plugin SDK aliases resolve diagnostic helpers through a separate module graph.

- Diagnostics: export alertable OTel and Prometheus signals for blocked tools, model failover, stale sessions, liveness warnings, oversized payloads, and webhook ingress while fixing shared OTLP endpoints with query strings.

- Tests: normalize macOS canonical temp paths in exec allowlists, fs-safe trash assertions, installed plugin matching, Telegram topic-name stores, and built ACPX MCP server expectations so native macOS proof runners cover the intended behavior.

- Codex/app-server: preserve message-tool-only source reply delivery mode on active runs so sub-agent completion wakeups can steer the active Codex turn instead of being rejected. ([#&#8203;86287](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86287)) Thanks [@&#8203;ferminquant](https://github.com/ferminquant).

- Tests: sample the Windows kitchen-sink RPC gateway directly and serialize RSS probes so native runs keep the memory guard active.

- Tests: normalize bundled plugin lifecycle probe paths and state-root lookup so native Windows release sweeps accept valid packaged plugin installs.

- Agents/Claude CLI: route live native Bash permission requests through OpenClaw exec policy so Claude turns no longer stall on `control_request`, and document that OpenClaw exec policy is authoritative. Fixes [#&#8203;80819](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80819). ([#&#8203;86330](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86330), from [#&#8203;81971](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/81971)) Thanks [@&#8203;guthirry](https://github.com/guthirry) and [@&#8203;sallyom](https://github.com/sallyom).

- Security audit: warn when YOLO OpenClaw exec policy overrides a restrictive raw Claude `--permission-mode` for managed live sessions. ([#&#8203;86557](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86557)) Thanks [@&#8203;sallyom](https://github.com/sallyom).

- Config: keep benign legacy metadata write anomalies out of default doctor and config command output while preserving explicit anomaly logging for diagnostics.

- Codex: log when implicit app-server `never` approvals are promoted for OpenClaw tool policy, including whether the trigger was a `before_tool_call` hook or trusted tool policy.

- Codex harness: make subscription usage-limit errors without reset times explain that OpenClaw cannot determine the reset and point users to wait until Codex is available, use another Codex account, or switch to another configured model/provider. Thanks [@&#8203;amknight](https://github.com/amknight).

- Google Vertex: support production ADC modes such as Workload Identity Federation, service-account credentials, and metadata-server ADC for the native Vertex transport. ([#&#8203;83971](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83971)) Thanks [@&#8203;damianFelixPago](https://github.com/damianFelixPago).

- Telegram: route normal `[telegram][diag]` polling diagnostics through `runtime.log` while keeping non-diag warnings and persistence failures on `runtime.error`, so healthy polling startup no longer looks like an error. Fixes [#&#8203;82957](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/82957). ([#&#8203;82958](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/82958)) Thanks [@&#8203;galiniliev](https://github.com/galiniliev).

- Providers/Ollama: strip inline Kimi cloud reasoning prefixes from streamed and final visible replies while keeping ordinary Kimi answers append-only. ([#&#8203;86286](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86286)) Thanks [@&#8203;jason-allen-oneal](https://github.com/jason-allen-oneal).

- Gateway: require Talk secret authority before setup-code handoff can include Talk secrets. ([#&#8203;85690](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85690)) Thanks [@&#8203;ngutman](https://github.com/ngutman).

- Agents: keep fallback error reporting scoped to the active model candidate so stale prior-provider quota/auth text is not reported for later fallback attempts. ([#&#8203;86134](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86134)) Thanks [@&#8203;zhangguiping-xydt](https://github.com/zhangguiping-xydt).

- iMessage: dedupe watcher startup when `channels.imessage.accounts` lists both `default` and a named account that point at the same local Messages source, so the gateway no longer spawns two `imsg rpc` processes or doubles inbound replies; the dedupe is scoped to watcher startup, leaving duplicate accounts addressable for outbound sends, status, and capability listings, and `openclaw doctor` flags the redundant account with a rebinding hint. Fixes [#&#8203;65141](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/65141). ([#&#8203;86705](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86705)) Thanks [@&#8203;swang430](https://github.com/swang430).
