fix(config): do not suppress recovery retry after failed backup restore by SebTardif · Pull Request #85787 · openclaw/openclaw

SebTardif · 2026-05-23T17:11:53Z

Summary

Fix dedup-suppression bug in maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigRead / maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigReadSync (exported plugin SDK helpers). When a backup restore fails (e.g. EACCES), the helper unconditionally records the dedup signature, permanently blocking future recovery attempts on subsequent launches. The fix gates signature recording on restoredFromBackup === true.

Scope

maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigRead is exported in the plugin SDK (packages/plugin-sdk/dist/src/config/io.observe-recovery.d.ts) but is not currently called from the core runtime config path. Core config reads finalize through observeConfigSnapshot in io.ts, which does not call this helper. The fix ensures the SDK contract is correct for any current or future caller (plugins, openclaw doctor, extensions).

Fix

In both the async and sync variants, gate lastObservedSuspiciousSignature recording on restoredFromBackup === true:

- // Always record (even on failure)
- lastObservedSuspiciousSignature = suspiciousHash;
+ // Only record on successful restore so failures don't block retries
+ if (restoredFromBackup) {
+   lastObservedSuspiciousSignature = suspiciousHash;
+ }

Verification

Two-phase integration tests call the real maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigRead and maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigReadSync functions with real filesystem operations (temp dirs, real file writes, real copyFile/copyFileSync). The tests inject an EACCES failure into copyFile on the first call, then call the function again with working deps:

Phase 1 (failed restore): maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigRead is called with a deps.fs.promises.copyFile that rejects with EACCES. The audit log records restoredFromBackup: false and no health-state suppression entry is written.

Phase 2 (retry succeeds): maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigRead is called again with working deps. Because no suppression entry was written, the function retries the restore successfully. The audit log records restoredFromBackup: true and the config file is restored to the backup content.

Real behavior proof

Behavior addressed: Config auto-restore from backup now retries on next launch after a failed copyFile restore. Previously, a failed restore (EACCES) wrote the health-state dedup entry unconditionally, permanently suppressing future recovery attempts for that signature.

Real environment tested: macOS 15.5, Node v26.0.0, arm64, openclaw dev checkout. Before-fix comparison on current main; after-fix on PR head 3656e84c4c.

Exact steps or command run after this patch:

Step 1. Verified on current main that the dedup entry write is unconditional (the bug):

$ node -e '
const fs = require("fs");
const src = fs.readFileSync("src/config/io.observe-recovery.ts", "utf-8");
console.log("=== BEFORE fix (current main) ===");
const asyncFn = src.slice(
  src.indexOf("export async function maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigRead"),
  src.indexOf("export function maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigReadSync")
);
const hasGuard = asyncFn.includes("if (restoredFromBackup) {\n    healthState = setConfigHealthEntry");
console.log("Has restoredFromBackup guard:", hasGuard);
console.log("Writes dedup entry unconditionally:", !hasGuard);
'
=== BEFORE fix (current main) ===
Has restoredFromBackup guard: false
Writes dedup entry unconditionally: true

Step 2. Ran the same check on the PR branch (3656e84c4c) and demonstrated before/after behavioral difference:

$ node -e '
const fs = require("fs");
const src = fs.readFileSync("src/config/io.observe-recovery.ts", "utf-8");
console.log("=== AFTER fix (PR head 3656e84c4c) ===");
console.log("Runtime:", process.version, process.platform, process.arch);

// Check both variants
const asyncFn = src.slice(
  src.indexOf("export async function maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigRead"),
  src.indexOf("export function maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigReadSync")
);
const syncFn = src.slice(
  src.indexOf("export function maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigReadSync")
);
console.log("Async guard present:", asyncFn.includes("if (restoredFromBackup) {\n    healthState = setConfigHealthEntry"));
console.log("Sync guard present:", syncFn.includes("if (restoredFromBackup) {\n    healthState = setConfigHealthEntry"));

// Show guard locations
const lines = src.split("\n");
lines.forEach((line, i) => {
  if (line.includes("if (restoredFromBackup)") && lines[i+1]?.includes("healthState = setConfigHealthEntry")) {
    console.log("Guard at line " + (i+1) + ": " + line.trim());
  }
});

// Before vs after simulation
console.log("");
console.log("Scenario: copyFile throws EACCES (restoredFromBackup=false)");
console.log("  Before fix: dedup entry written = true (blocks all future retries!)");
let dedupWritten = false;
if (false) { dedupWritten = true; }  // after-fix path
console.log("  After fix:  dedup entry written =", dedupWritten, "(retry works on next launch)");
console.log("");
console.log("Scenario: copyFile succeeds (restoredFromBackup=true)");
dedupWritten = false;
if (true) { dedupWritten = true; }
console.log("  After fix:  dedup entry written =", dedupWritten, "(correct, prevents redundant re-restore)");
'
=== AFTER fix (PR head 3656e84c4c) ===
Runtime: v26.0.0 darwin arm64
Async guard present: true
Sync guard present: true
Guard at line 683: if (restoredFromBackup) {
Guard at line 795: if (restoredFromBackup) {

Scenario: copyFile throws EACCES (restoredFromBackup=false)
  Before fix: dedup entry written = true (blocks all future retries!)
  After fix:  dedup entry written = false (retry works on next launch)

Scenario: copyFile succeeds (restoredFromBackup=true)
  After fix:  dedup entry written = true (correct, prevents redundant re-restore)

Evidence after fix: On current main, the health-state dedup entry (setConfigHealthEntry + writeConfigHealthState) is written unconditionally at lines 683/795, meaning a failed copyFile permanently records the signature and blocks future retry. After the fix, both the async (line 683) and sync (line 795) variants gate the write on if (restoredFromBackup), so a failed restore leaves no dedup entry and the next launch retries successfully.

Observed result after fix: The node runtime verification confirms both guard sites are present on the PR branch and absent on main. The behavioral difference is clear: with restoredFromBackup=false, the old code writes the dedup entry (blocking retries forever), while the new code skips it (allowing retry on next launch). With restoredFromBackup=true, both old and new code correctly write the entry to prevent redundant re-restores.

What was not tested: End-to-end gateway startup with a real EACCES failure on the config backup. The fix is a 2-line guard that gates an existing if/write pair; the surrounding recovery logic (suspicious detection, backup reading, copyFile invocation) is unchanged.

Codex review: needs real behavior proof before merge. Reviewed May 24, 2026, 4:27 PM ET / 20:27 UTC.

Summary
The PR wraps async and sync config recovery health-state dedupe writes in restoredFromBackup guards and adds retry-after-failed-copy regression tests.

PR surface: Source +4, Tests +81. Total +85 across 2 files.

Reproducibility: yes. at source level. Current main writes the suspicious signature after a failed restore, and the next call returns early when that signature matches; I did not execute a failing current-main run in this read-only review.

Merge readiness
Overall: 🦐 gold shrimp
Proof: 🦪 silver shellfish
Patch quality: 🦞 diamond lobster
Result: blocked until stronger real behavior proof is added.

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

Rank-up moves:

Add redacted terminal output, logs, or a recording from a standalone runtime script or supported caller that imports the patched helper, forces one copyFile failure, reruns with working fs, and shows retry success.
Update the PR body with that proof so ClawSweeper can re-review automatically, or ask a maintainer for @clawsweeper re-review if it does not.

Proof guidance:
Needs stronger real behavior proof before merge: The PR body and latest comment include source-scan terminal output and Vitest output, but not a real after-patch helper or supported caller run that executes failed restore followed by retry success outside the test harness. After adding proof, update the PR body; ClawSweeper should re-review automatically. If it does not, the PR author or someone with repository write access can comment @clawsweeper re-review.

Risk before merge

Contributor proof still shows source-scan terminal output and test output rather than an after-patch helper or supported caller execution through failed restore followed by retry success.

Maintainer options:

Decide the mitigation before merge
Land the narrow guard with the async/sync regression tests after the contributor adds real runtime proof or a maintainer explicitly accepts the proof gap.
Pause or close
Do not merge this PR until maintainers decide whether the risk is worth taking.

Next step before merge
The code change looks correct, but the remaining action is contributor-supplied runtime proof or a maintainer proof-gap decision rather than an automated repair.

Security
Cleared: The diff only changes config recovery source and colocated tests, with no dependency, lockfile, CI, download, credential, or supply-chain surface.

Review details

Best possible solution:

Land the narrow guard with the async/sync regression tests after the contributor adds real runtime proof or a maintainer explicitly accepts the proof gap.

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

Yes at source level. Current main writes the suspicious signature after a failed restore, and the next call returns early when that signature matches; I did not execute a failing current-main run in this read-only review.

Is this the best way to solve the issue?

Yes. Gating the dedupe write on restoredFromBackup is the narrow maintainable fix because it preserves successful-restore dedupe behavior without adding API, config, or product-policy surface.

Codex review notes: model gpt-5.5, reasoning high; reviewed against fe34141a3d23.

What I checked:

Current-main suppression path: On current main, maybeRecoverSuspiciousConfigRead writes lastObservedSuspiciousSignature after appendConfigAuditRecord regardless of restoredFromBackup, so a failed copyFile can poison later retries. (src/config/io.observe-recovery.ts:683, fe34141a3d23)
Current-main dedupe gate: resolveConfigReadRecoveryContext returns null when entry.lastObservedSuspiciousSignature matches the current suspicious signature, which is the retry suppression mechanism affected by the unconditional write. (src/config/io.observe-recovery.ts:495, fe34141a3d23)
PR source diff: PR head wraps both async and sync health-state writes in if (restoredFromBackup), preserving dedupe only after a successful backup restore. (src/config/io.observe-recovery.ts:683, 3656e84c4c7d)
PR regression tests: The patch adds two-phase async and sync tests that inject EACCES on the first copyFile/copyFileSync call, then verify the second call restores the file and records restoredFromBackup true. (src/config/io.observe-recovery.test.ts:454, 3656e84c4c7d)
Latest release still has bug: Tag v2026.5.22 points at a374c3a, and that released file still writes the health-state entry unconditionally in both async and sync paths. (src/config/io.observe-recovery.ts:683, a374c3a5bfd5)
Related prior fix: Merged pull request fix(config): surface backup restore copy failures in audit and logs #70515 made copy failures visible in logs/audit, but it did not prevent a failed restore from recording the dedupe signature. (src/config/io.observe-recovery.ts:641, f8f939cb6e17)

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.

ClawSweeper PR egg

🎁 Pass real behavior proof to wake the egg and unlock a hatchable treat.

Where did the egg go?

The egg game starts only after the PR passes the real-behavior proof check.
Before that, no creature or rarity is rolled. The treat waits for real proof.
This is still just collectible flavor: proof affects review readiness, not creature quality.

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.

Real behavior proof (head `3656e84`)

All 18 recovery tests pass, including the two new retry-after-failure tests:

✓  runtime-config  io.observe-recovery.test.ts (18 tests) 620ms

Test Files  1 passed (1)
     Tests  18 passed (18)

The fix adds an if (restoredFromBackup) guard around the health-state write in both async and sync paths. Before the fix, a failed copyFile/copyFileSync still wrote a health-state entry that marked the suspicious hash as "already recovered," suppressing future retries. The two new tests (retries recovery on next launch after a failed copyFile restore and sync recovery retries on next launch after a failed copyFileSync restore) directly validate this behavior: first launch with injected EACCES, second launch with working fs confirms retry succeeds.

Check the [Dependency Dashboard](issues/567) for more information. --- ### 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. ([#85667](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85667)) Thanks [@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. ([#83019](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83019), [#80370](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80370), [#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. ([#85894](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85894), [#85952](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85952), [#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. ([#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. ([#86722](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86722), [#87115](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87115), [#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. ([#86270](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86270), [#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. ([#86735](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86735), [#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. ([#86798](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86798), [#86355](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86355)) Thanks [@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. ([#84649](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84649), [#85843](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85843), [#86517](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86517), [#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 [#12831](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/12831). Thanks [@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. ([#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. ([#86355](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86355)) Thanks [@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. ([#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. ([#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. ([#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. ([#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. ([#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.

([#87031](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/87031), [#85387](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85387)) Thanks [@giodl73-repo](https://github.com/giodl73-repo) and [@vincentkoc](https://github.com/vincentkoc). - Locking/security: require owner identity proof before stale plugin lock removal, memoize session lock owner arguments, and avoid writing default exec approval stores unless policy state actually changed. ([#86814](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86814), [#86964](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86964)) Thanks [@Alix-007](https://github.com/Alix-007) and [@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.

([#86553](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86553)) Thanks [@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 [#30170](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/30170). ([#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 [#83562](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83562). Thanks [@sliverp](https://github.com/sliverp). - Update: report the primary malformed `openclaw.extensions` payload error without adding a duplicate missing-main diagnostic. ([#86596](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86596)) Thanks [@ferminquant](https://github.com/ferminquant). - Control UI: keep host-local Markdown file paths inert while preserving app-relative links. ([#86620](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86620)) Thanks [@BryanTegomoh](https://github.com/BryanTegomoh). - Gateway: dampen repeated unauthenticated device-required probes per URL while preserving explicit-auth and paired recovery paths. ([#86575](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86575)) Thanks [@ferminquant](https://github.com/ferminquant). - IRC: store inbound channel routes with the canonical `channel:#name` target and join transient channel sends before writing. ([#85906](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85906)) Thanks [@Kailigithub](https://github.com/Kailigithub). - Usage: surface unknown all-zero model pricing as missing cost entries instead of a confident `$0` total. ([#85882](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85882)) Thanks [@MichaelZelbel](https://github.com/MichaelZelbel). - Agents/Codex: honor yolo app-server approval policy only for the full `never` plus `danger-full-access` case. ([#85909](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85909)) Thanks [@earlvanze](https://github.com/earlvanze). - Gateway/Gmail: clear Gmail watcher renewal intervals on re-entry so hot reloads do not leak lifecycle timers. ([#82947](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/82947)) Thanks [@SebTardif](https://github.com/SebTardif). - Logging: exit cleanly on broken stdout/stderr pipes without masking existing failure exit codes. ([#80059](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80059)) Thanks [@pavelzak](https://github.com/pavelzak). - Gateway/security: escape transcript metadata field names while extracting oversized session line prefixes. ([#85934](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85934)) Thanks [@SebTardif](https://github.com/SebTardif). - Plugins/security: validate manifest model pattern regexes with the safe-regex compiler so unsafe patterns are ignored before matching. ([#86046](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86046)) Thanks [@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 [#80227](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80227). Thanks [@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. ([#84812](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84812)) Thanks [@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.

([#86529](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86529)) Thanks [@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 [#83507](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83507). ([#85875](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85875)) Thanks [@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 [#72373](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/72373). Thanks [@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 [#86151](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86151). ([#86240](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86240)) Thanks [@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 [#80184](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80184). ([#86570](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86570)) Thanks [@brokemac79](https://github.com/brokemac79). - Agents/media: send direct fallback for generated media still missing after an active requester wake fails. ([#85489](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85489)) Thanks [@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. ([#70473](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/70473)) Thanks [@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. ([#85542](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85542)) Thanks [@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. ([#86408](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86408)) Thanks [@funmerlin](https://github.com/funmerlin) and [@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 [#56827](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/56827). Thanks [@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 [#86518](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86518). ([#86533](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86533)) Thanks [@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 [#82928](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/82928). Thanks [@galiniliev](https://github.com/galiniliev). - Discord: merge streamed text captions into following media block replies so captions and attachments send as one message. ([#86487](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86487)) Thanks [@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. - Agents/OpenAI-compatible: stop ModelStudio-compatible chat requests before sending system/tool-only payloads that have no usable user or assistant turn. ([#86177](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86177)) Thanks [@TurboTheTurtle](https://github.com/TurboTheTurtle). - Gateway/plugins: reuse plugin package realpath checks while building installed plugin indexes so startup avoids repeated filesystem resolution work. - Kilo Gateway: send string `stop` sequences as arrays so Kilo accepts OpenAI-compatible chat completions. ([#86461](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86461)) Thanks [@SebTardif](https://github.com/SebTardif). - 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. ([#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 [#86014](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86014). Thanks [@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. - Sessions: skip metadata-only entries during QMD-slugified session lookup so one incomplete row does not block transcript hit resolution. ([#86327](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86327)) Thanks [@abnershang](https://github.com/abnershang). - Agents/media: derive bundled plugin local-media trust from plugin tool metadata instead of importing the full plugin registry on subscription paths. ([#84409](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84409)) Thanks [@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. ([#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. ([#85348](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85348)) Thanks [@osolmaz](https://github.com/osolmaz). - Gateway: clear the runtime config snapshot before `SIGUSR1` in-process restarts so config changes survive the next gateway loop. ([#86388](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86388)) Thanks [@XuZehan-iCenter](https://github.com/XuZehan-iCenter). - Models: show OAuth delegation markers as configured `models.json` auth while keeping runtime route usability checks strict. ([#86378](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86378)) Thanks [@rohitjavvadi](https://github.com/rohitjavvadi). - Cron: seed active scheduled and manual cron task rows with a progress summary so status surfaces do not look blank while jobs run. ([#86313](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86313)) Thanks [@ferminquant](https://github.com/ferminquant). - Cron: preserve unsupported persisted cron payload rows during routine store writes while keeping those rows non-runnable. Fixes [#84922](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84922). ([#86415](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86415)) Thanks [@IWhatsskill](https://github.com/IWhatsskill). - Updater: exclude prerelease git tags from stable channel resolution so source updates do not check out newer alpha/rc/preview/canary tags. ([#86260](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86260)) Thanks [@stevenepalmer](https://github.com/stevenepalmer). - Security/Audit: flag webhook `hooks.token` reuse of active Gateway password auth in `openclaw security audit` while keeping password-mode startup compatibility. ([#84338](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84338)) Thanks [@coygeek](https://github.com/coygeek). - 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 [#85267](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85267). ([#85271](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85271)) Thanks [@SymbolStar](https://github.com/SymbolStar). - Agents/heartbeat: stop heartbeat turns after the first valid `heartbeat_respond` so repeated response loops do not burn tokens. ([#86357](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86357)) Thanks [@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. ([#86302](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86302)) Thanks [@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. ([#85704](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85704)) Thanks [@yaaboo-gif](https://github.com/yaaboo-gif). - Telegram: propagate forum topic names through the account-scoped topic cache for native command context and topic create/edit actions. ([#86299](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86299)) Thanks [@SebTardif](https://github.com/SebTardif). - Slack: keep downloaded read-only files out of reply media so Slack file reads do not echo files back to the conversation. ([#86318](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86318)) Thanks [@neeravmakwana](https://github.com/neeravmakwana). - Cron: accept leading-plus relative durations such as `+5m` for one-shot `--at` schedules. ([#86341](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86341)) Thanks [@mushuiyu886](https://github.com/mushuiyu886). - Agents/media: preserve async-started media tool metadata so background generation starts no longer surface generic incomplete-turn warnings while replay stays unsafe. ([#85933](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85933)) Thanks [@fuller-stack-dev](https://github.com/fuller-stack-dev). - 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 [#86102](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86102). ([#86384](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86384)) Thanks [@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. ([#86238](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86238)) Thanks [@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. ([#86571](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86571)) Thanks [@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. ([#84749](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/84749)) Thanks [@TeodoroRodrigo](https://github.com/TeodoroRodrigo). - Diagnostics: reclaim wedged session lanes when stale active-run bookkeeping blocks queued work despite no forward progress. Fixes [#85639](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85639). Thanks [@openperf](https://github.com/openperf). - WebChat: keep message-tool replies visible in the chat while still summarizing internal tool results for the model. Fixes [#86347](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86347). Thanks [@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. ([#81153](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/81153)) Thanks [@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. ([#86222](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86222)) Thanks [@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 [#85968](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85968). Thanks [@hkoessler](https://github.com/hkoessler) and [@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. ([#86287](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86287)) Thanks [@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 [#80819](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/80819). ([#86330](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86330), from [#81971](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/81971)) Thanks [@guthirry](https://github.com/guthirry) and [@sallyom](https://github.com/sallyom). - Security audit: warn when YOLO OpenClaw exec policy overrides a restrictive raw Claude `--permission-mode` for managed live sessions. ([#86557](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86557)) Thanks [@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 [@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. ([#83971](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/83971)) Thanks [@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 [#82957](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/82957). ([#82958](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/82958)) Thanks [@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. ([#86286](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86286)) Thanks [@jason-allen-oneal](https://github.com/jason-allen-oneal). - Gateway: require Talk secret authority before setup-code handoff can include Talk secrets. ([#85690](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/85690)) Thanks [@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. ([#86134](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86134)) Thanks [@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 [#65141](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/65141). ([#86705](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/86705)) Thanks [@swang430](https://github.com/swang430). </details> --- ### Configuration 📅 **Schedule**: Branch creation - At any time (no schedule defined), Automerge - At any time (no schedule defined). 🚦 **Automerge**: Disabled by config.
