            <description><![CDATA[<h2>OpenClaw 2026.4.11</h2>
<h3>Changes</h3>
<ul>
<li>Dreaming/memory-wiki: add ChatGPT import ingestion plus new <code>Imported Insights</code> and <code>Memory Palace</code> diary subtabs so Dreaming can inspect imported source chats, compiled wiki pages, and full source pages directly from the UI. (#64505)</li>
<li>Control UI/webchat: render assistant media/reply/voice directives as structured chat bubbles, add the <code>[embed ...]</code> rich output tag, and gate external embed URLs behind config. (#64104)</li>
<li>Tools/video_generate: add URL-only generated asset delivery, typed <code>providerOptions</code>, reference audio inputs, per-asset role hints, <code>adaptive</code> aspect-ratio support, and a higher image-input cap so video providers can expose richer generation modes without forcing large files into memory. (#61987, #61988) Thanks @xieyongliang.</li>
<li>Feishu: improve document comment sessions with richer context parsing, comment reactions, and typing feedback so document-thread conversations behave more like chat conversations. (#63785)</li>
<li>Microsoft Teams: add reaction support, reaction listing, Graph pagination, and delegated OAuth setup for sending reactions while preserving application-auth read paths. (#51646)</li>
<li>Plugins: allow plugin manifests to declare activation and setup descriptors so plugin setup flows can describe required auth, pairing, and configuration steps without hardcoded core special cases. (#64780)</li>
<li>Ollama: cache <code>/api/show</code> context-window and capability metadata during model discovery so repeated picker refreshes stop refetching unchanged models, while still retrying after empty responses and invalidating on digest changes. (#64753) Thanks @ImLukeF.</li>
<li>Models/providers: surface how configured OpenAI-compatible endpoints are classified in embedded-agent debug logs, so local and proxy routing issues are easier to diagnose. (#64754) Thanks @ImLukeF.</li>
<li>QA/parity: add the GPT-5.4 vs Opus 4.6 agentic parity report gate with shared scenario coverage checks, stricter evidence heuristics, and skipped-scenario accounting for maintainer review. (#64441) Thanks @100yenadmin.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Fixes</h3>
<ul>
<li>OpenAI/Codex OAuth: stop rewriting the upstream authorize URL scopes so new Codex sign-ins do not fail with <code>invalid_scope</code> before returning an authorization code. (#64713) Thanks @fuller-stack-dev.</li>
<li>Audio transcription: disable pinned DNS only for OpenAI-compatible multipart requests, while still validating hostnames, so OpenAI, Groq, and Mistral transcription works again without weakening other request paths. (#64766) Thanks @GodsBoy.</li>
<li>macOS/Talk Mode: after granting microphone permission on first enable, continue starting Talk Mode instead of requiring a second toggle. (#62459) Thanks @ggarber.</li>
<li>Control UI/webchat: persist agent-run TTS audio replies into webchat history and preserve interleaved tool card pairing so generated audio and mixed tool output stay attached to the right messages. (#63514) Thanks @bittoby.</li>
<li>WhatsApp: honor the configured default account when the active listener helper is used without an explicit account id, so named default accounts do not get registered under <code>default</code>. (#53918) Thanks @yhyatt.</li>
<li>ACP/agents: suppress commentary-phase child assistant relay text in ACP parent stream updates, so spawned child runs stop leaking internal progress chatter into the parent session. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
<li>Agents/timeouts: honor explicit run timeouts in the LLM idle watchdog and align default timeout config so slow models can keep working until the configured limit instead of using the wrong idle window.</li>
<li>Config: include <code>asyncCompletion</code> in the generated zod schema so documented async completion config no longer fails with an unrecognized-key error. (#63618)</li>
<li>Google/Veo: stop sending the unsupported <code>numberOfVideos</code> request field so Gemini Developer API Veo runs do not fail before OpenClaw can complete the intended Google video generation path. (#64723) Thanks @velvet-shark.</li>
<li>QA/packaging: stop packaged CLI startup and completion cache generation from reading repo-only QA scenario markdown, ship the bundled QA scenario pack in npm releases, and keep <code>openclaw completion --write-state</code> working even if QA setup is broken. (#64648) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
<li>Codex/QA: keep Codex app-server coordination chatter out of visible replies, add a live QA leak scenario, and classify leaked harness meta text as a QA failure instead of a successful reply. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
<li>WhatsApp: route <code>message react</code> through the gateway-owned action path so reactions use the live WhatsApp listener in both DM and group chats, matching <code>message send</code> and <code>message poll</code>. Thanks @mcaxtr.</li>
<li>Auto-reply/WhatsApp: preserve inbound image attachment notes after media understanding so image edits keep the real saved media path instead of hallucinating a missing local path. (#64918) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
<li>Telegram/sessions: keep topic-scoped session initialization on the canonical topic transcript path when inbound turns omit <code>MessageThreadId</code>, so one topic session no longer alternates between bare and topic-qualified transcript files. (#64869) Thanks @jalehman.</li>
<li>Agents/failover: scope assistant-side fallback classification and surfaced provider errors to the current attempt instead of stale session history, so cross-provider fallback runs stop inheriting the previous provider's failure. (#62907) Thanks @stainlu.</li>
<li>MiniMax/OAuth: write <code>api: "anthropic-messages"</code> and <code>authHeader: true</code> into the <code>minimax-portal</code> config patch during <code>openclaw configure</code>, so re-authenticated portal setups keep Bearer auth routing working. (#64964) Thanks @ryanlee666.</li>

            <description><![CDATA[<h2>OpenClaw 2026.4.10</h2>
<h3>Changes</h3>
<ul>
<li>Models/Codex: add the bundled Codex provider and plugin-owned app-server harness so <code>codex/gpt-*</code> models use Codex-managed auth, native threads, model discovery, and compaction while <code>openai/gpt-*</code> stays on the normal OpenAI provider path. (#64298)</li>
<li>Memory/Active Memory: add a new optional Active Memory plugin that gives OpenClaw a dedicated memory sub-agent right before the main reply, so ongoing chats can automatically pull in relevant preferences, context, and past details without making users remember to manually say "remember this" or "search memory" first. Includes configurable message/recent/full context modes, live <code>/verbose</code> inspection, advanced prompt/thinking overrides for tuning, and opt-in transcript persistence for debugging. Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/concepts/active-memory. (#63286) Thanks @Takhoffman.</li>
<li>macOS/Talk: add an experimental local MLX speech provider for Talk Mode, with explicit provider selection, local utterance playback, interruption handling, and system-voice fallback. (#63539) Thanks @ImLukeF.</li>
<li>Tools/video generation: add Seedance 2.0 model refs to the bundled fal provider and submit the provider-specific duration, resolution, audio, and seed metadata fields needed for live Seedance 2.0 runs.</li>
<li>Microsoft Teams: add message actions for pin, unpin, read, react, and listing reactions. (#53432) Thanks @sudie-codes.</li>
<li>QA/Matrix: add a live <code>openclaw qa matrix</code> lane backed by a disposable Matrix homeserver, shared live-transport seams, and Matrix-specific transport coverage for threading, reactions, restart, and allowlist behavior. (#64489) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
<li>QA/Telegram: add a live <code>openclaw qa telegram</code> lane for private-group bot-to-bot checks, harden its artifact handling, and preserve native Telegram command reply threading for QA verification. (#64303) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
<li>QA/testing: add a <code>--runner multipass</code> lane for <code>openclaw qa suite</code> so repo-backed QA scenarios can run inside a disposable Linux VM and write back the usual report, summary, and VM logs. (#63426) Thanks @shakkernerd.</li>
<li>CLI/exec policy: add a local <code>openclaw exec-policy</code> command with <code>show</code>, <code>preset</code>, and <code>set</code> subcommands for synchronizing requested <code>tools.exec.*</code> config with the local exec approvals file, plus follow-up hardening for node-host rejection, rollback safety, and sync conflict detection. (#64050)</li>
<li>Gateway: add a <code>commands.list</code> RPC so remote gateway clients can discover runtime-native, text, skill, and plugin commands with surface-aware naming and serialized argument metadata. (#62656) Thanks @samzong.</li>
<li>Models/providers: add per-provider <code>models.providers.*.request.allowPrivateNetwork</code> for trusted self-hosted OpenAI-compatible endpoints, keep the opt-in scoped to model request surfaces, and refresh cached WebSocket managers when request transport overrides change. (#63671) Thanks @qas.</li>
<li>Feishu: standardize request user agents and register the bot as an AI agent so Feishu deployments identify OpenClaw consistently. (#63835) Thanks @evandance.</li>
<li>Matrix/partial streaming: add MSC4357 live markers to draft preview sends and edits so supporting Matrix clients can render a live/typewriter animation and stop it when the final edit lands. (#63513) Thanks @TigerInYourDream.</li>
<li>Control UI/dreaming: simplify the Scene and Diary surfaces, preserve unknown phase state for partial status payloads, and stabilize waiting-entry recency ordering so Dreaming status and review lists stay clear and deterministic. (#64035) Thanks @davemorin.</li>
<li>Agents: add an opt-in strict-agentic embedded Pi execution contract for GPT-5-family runs so plan-only or filler turns keep acting until they hit a real blocker. (#64241) Thanks @100yenadmin.</li>
<li>Agents/OpenAI: add provider-owned OpenAI/Codex tool schema compatibility and surface embedded-run replay/liveness state for long-running runs. (#64300) Thanks @100yenadmin.</li>
<li>Docs i18n: chunk raw doc translation, reject truncated tagged outputs, avoid ambiguous body-only wrapper unwrapping, and recover from terminated Pi translation sessions without changing the default <code>openai/gpt-5.4</code> path. (#62969, #63808) Thanks @hxy91819.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Fixes</h3>
<ul>
<li>Browser/security: tighten browser and sandbox navigation defenses across strict SSRF defaults, hostname allowlists, interaction-driven redirects, subframes, CDP discovery, existing sessions, tab actions, noVNC, marker-span sanitization, and Docker CDP source-range enforcement. (#61404, #63332, #63882, #63885, #63889, #64367, #64370, #64371)</li>
<li>Security/tools: harden exec preflight reads, host env denylisting, node output boundaries, outbound host-media reads, profile-mutation authorization, plugin install dependency scanning, ACPX tool hooks, Gmail watcher token redaction, and oversized realtime WebSocket frame handling. (#62333, #62661, #62662, #63277, #63551, #63553, #63886, #63890, #63891, #64459)</li>
<li>OpenAI/Codex: add required Codex OAuth scopes, classify provider/runtime failures more clearly, stop suggesting <code>/elevated full</code> when auto-approved host exec is unavailable, add OpenAI/Codex tool-schema compatibility, and preserve embedded-run replay/liveness truth across compaction retries and mutating side effects. (#64300, #64439) Thanks @100yenadmin.</li>
<li>CLI/WhatsApp media sends: route gateway-mode outbound sends with <code>--media</code> through the channel <code>sendMedia</code> path and preserve media access context, so WhatsApp document and attachment sends stop silently dropping the file while still delivering the caption. (#64478, #64492) Thanks @ShionEria.</li>
<li>Microsoft Teams: restore media downloads for personal DMs, Bot Framework <code>a:</code> conversations, OneDrive/SharePoint shared files, and Graph-backed chat IDs; accept Bot Framework audience tokens; prevent feedback-learning filename collisions; keep long tool chains alive with typing indicators; add SSO sign-in callbacks; inject parent context for thread replies; and deliver cron announcements to Teams conversation IDs. (#54932, #55383, #55386, #58001, #58249, #58774, #59731, #60956, #62219, #62674, #63063, #63942, #63945, #63949, #63951, #63953, #64087, #64088, #64089)</li>
<li>Gateway/tailscale: start Tailscale exposure and the gateway update check before awaiting channel and plugin sidecar startup so remote operators are not locked out when startup sidecars stall.</li>
<li>Gateway/startup: keep WebSocket RPC available while channels and plugin sidecars start, hold <code>chat.history</code> unavailable until startup sidecars finish so synchronous history reads cannot stall startup (reported in #63450), refresh advertised gateway methods after deferred plugin reloads, and enforce the pre-auth WebSocket upgrade budget before the no-handler 503 path so upgrade floods cannot bypass connection limits during that window. (#63480) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
<li>WhatsApp: keep inbound replies, media, composing indicators, and queued outbound deliveries attached to the current socket across reconnect gaps, including fresh retry-eligible sends after the listener comes back. (#30806, #46299, #62892, #63916) Thanks @mcaxtr.</li>
<li>Gateway/thread routing: preserve Slack, Telegram, Mattermost, Matrix, ACP, restart-sentinel, and agent announce delivery targets so subagent, cron, stream-relay, session fallback, and restart messages land back in the originating thread, topic, or room casing. (#54840, #57056, #63143, #63228, #63506, #64343, #64391)</li>
<li>Models/fallback: preserve <code>/models</code> selection across transient primary-model failures and config reloads, allow timeout cooldown probes, classify OpenRouter no-endpoints responses, detect llama.cpp context overflows, and keep provider/runtime context metadata stable through reloads. (#61472, #64196, #64471)</li>
<li>Agents/BTW: keep <code>/btw</code> side questions working after tool-use turns by stripping replayed tool blocks, hidden reasoning, and malformed image payloads, omitting empty tool arrays, allowing Bedrock <code>auth: "aws-sdk"</code>, and routing Feishu <code>/btw</code> plus <code>/stop</code> through bounded out-of-band lanes. (#64218, #64219, #64225, #64324) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
<li>Control UI/BTW: render <code>/btw</code> side results as dismissible ephemeral cards in the browser, send <code>/btw</code> immediately during active runs, and clear stale BTW cards on reset flows so webchat matches the intended detached side-question behavior. (#64290) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
<li>Commands/targeting: use the selected agent or session for command output, send policy, usage/cost, context reports, model lists, bash sandbox hints, BTW/compact working directories, plugin commands, and session exports so multi-agent commands describe and mutate the intended target instead of the requester.</li>
<li>Conversation bindings: normalize focused/current conversation ids, preserve binding metadata on account and Discord rebinds, avoid stale Discord lifecycle windows, and keep generic activity touches persisted so reply routing survives rebinds and restarts.</li>
<li>iMessage/self-chat: distinguish normal DM outbound rows from true self-chat using <code>destination_caller_id</code> plus chat participants, preserve multi-handle self-chat aliases, drop ambiguous reflected echoes, and strip wrapped imsg RPC text fields. (#61619, #63868, #63980, #63989, #64000) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
<li>Matrix: keep multi-account room scoping consistent, keep packaged crypto migrations warning-only when appropriate, preserve ordered block streaming, add explicit Matrix block-streaming opt-in, and resolve verification/bootstrap from the packaged runtime entry. (#58449, #59249, #59266, #64373) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
<li>Telegram/security: tighten Telegram <code>allowFrom</code> sender validation and keep <code>/whoami</code> allowlist reporting in sync with command auth checks.</li>
<li>Agents/timeouts: extend the default LLM idle window to 120s and keep silent no-token idle timeouts on recovery paths, so slow models can retry or fall back before users see an error.</li>
<li>Gateway/agents: preserve configured model selection and richer <code>IDENTITY.md</code> content across agent create/update flows and workspace moves, and fail safely instead of silently overwriting unreadable identity files. (#61577) Thanks @samzong.</li>
<li>Skills/TaskFlow: restore valid frontmatter fences for the bundled <code>taskflow</code> and <code>taskflow-inbox-triage</code> skills and copy bundled <code>SKILL.md</code> files as hard dist-runtime copies so skills stay discoverable and loadable after updates. (#64166, #64469) Thanks @extrasmall0.</li>
<li>Skills: respect overridden home directories when loading personal skills so service, test, and custom launch environments read the intended user skill directory instead of the process home.</li>
<li>Windows/exec: settle supervisor waits from child exit state after stdout and stderr drain even when <code>close</code> never arrives, so CLI commands stop hanging or dying with forced <code>SIGKILL</code> on Windows. (#64072) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
<li>Browser/sandbox: prevent sandbox browser CDP startup hangs by recreating containers when the browser security hash changes and by waiting on the correct sandbox browser lifecycle. (#62873) Thanks @Syysean.</li>
<li>QQBot/streaming: make block streaming configurable per QQ bot account via <code>streaming.mode</code> (<code>"partial"</code> | <code>"off"</code>, default <code>"partial"</code>) instead of hardcoding it off, so responses can be delivered incrementally. (#63746)</li>
<li>QQBot/config: allow extra fields in <code>channels.qqbot</code> and <code>channels.qqbot.accounts.*</code> so extended qqbot builds can add new config options without gateway startup failing on schema validation. (#64075) Thanks @WideLee.</li>
<li>Dreaming/gateway: require <code>operator.admin</code> for persistent <code>/dreaming on|off</code> changes and treat missing gateway client scopes as unprivileged instead of silently allowing config writes. (#63872) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Gateway/pairing: prefer explicit QR bootstrap auth over earlier Tailscale auth classification so iOS <code>/pair qr</code> silent bootstrap pairing does not fall through to <code>pairing required</code>. (#59232) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
<li>Browser/control: auto-generate browser-control auth tokens for <code>none</code> and <code>trusted-proxy</code> modes, and route browser auth/profile/doctor helpers through the public browser plugin facades. (#63280, #63957) Thanks @pgondhi987.</li>
<li>Browser/act: centralize <code>/act</code> request normalization and execution dispatch while adding stable machine-readable route-level error codes for invalid requests, selector misuse, evaluate-disabled gating, target mismatch, and existing-session unsupported actions. (#63977) Thanks @joshavant.</li>
<li>Security/QQBot: enforce media storage boundaries for all outbound local file paths and route image-size probes through SSRF-guarded media fetching instead of raw <code>fetch()</code>. (#63271, #63495) Thanks @pgondhi987.</li>
<li>Channel setup: ignore workspace plugin shadows when resolving trusted channel setup catalog entries so onboarding and setup flows keep using the bundled, trusted setup contract.</li>
<li>Gateway/memory startup: load the explicitly selected memory-slot plugin during gateway startup, while keeping restrictive allowlists and implicit default memory slots from auto-starting unrelated memory plugins. (#64423) Thanks @EronFan.</li>
<li>Config/plugins: let config writes keep disabled plugin entries without forcing required plugin config schemas or crashing raw plugin validation, and avoid re-activating plugin registry state during schema checks. (#54971, #63296) Thanks @fuller-stack-dev.</li>
<li>Config validation: surface the actual offending field for strict-schema union failures in bindings, including top-level unexpected keys on the matching ACP branch. (#40841) Thanks @Hollychou924.</li>
<li>Wizard/plugin config: coerce integer-typed plugin config fields from interactive text input so integer schema values persist as numbers instead of failing validation. (#63346) Thanks @jalehman.</li>
<li>Daemon/gateway install: preserve safe custom service env vars on forced reinstall, merge prior custom PATH segments behind the managed service PATH, and stop removed managed env keys from persisting as custom carryover. (#63136) Thanks @WarrenJones.</li>
<li>Cron/scheduling: treat <code>nextRunAtMs <= 0</code> as invalid across cron update, maintenance, timer, and stale-delivery paths so corrupted zero timestamps self-heal instead of causing immediate runs or skipped deliveries. (#63507) Thanks @WarrenJones.</li>
<li>Cron/auth: resolve auth profiles consistently for isolated cron jobs so scheduled runs use the same configured provider credentials as interactive sessions. (#62797) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
<li>Tasks: let <code>openclaw tasks cancel</code> cancel stuck background tasks that never reached a normal terminal state. (#62506) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
<li>Sessions/model selection: preserve catalog-backed session model labels, provider-qualified context limits, and already-qualified session model refs when catalog metadata is unavailable, so model selection and memory/context budgets survive reloads without bogus provider prefixes. (#61382, #62493) Thanks @Mule-ME.</li>
<li>Status: show configured fallback models in <code>/status</code> and shared session status cards so per-agent fallback configuration is visible before a live failover happens. (#33111) Thanks @AnCoSONG.</li>
<li><code>/context detail</code> now compares the tracked prompt estimate with cached context usage and surfaces untracked provider/runtime overhead when present. (#28391) Thanks @ImLukeF.</li>
<li>Gateway/sessions: scope bare <code>sessions.create</code> aliases like <code>main</code> to the requested agent while preserving the canonical <code>global</code> and <code>unknown</code> sentinel keys. (#58207) Thanks @jalehman.</li>
<li>Gateway/session reset: emit the typed <code>before_reset</code> hook for gateway <code>/new</code> and <code>/reset</code>, preserving reset-hook behavior even when the previous transcript has already been archived. (#53872) Thanks @VACInc.</li>
<li>Plugins/commands: pass the active host <code>sessionKey</code> into plugin command contexts, and include <code>sessionId</code> when it is already available from the active session entry, so bundled and third-party commands can resolve the current conversation reliably. (#59044) Thanks @jalehman.</li>
<li>Agents/auth: honor <code>models.providers.*.authHeader</code> for pi embedded runner model requests by injecting <code>Authorization: Bearer <apiKey></code> when requested. (#54390) Thanks @lndyzwdxhs.</li>
<li>Claude CLI: clear inherited Anthropic auth/header environment aliases before spawning Claude Code and add sanitized CLI backend auth-env diagnostics for debugging gateway-run provider selection.</li>
<li>Agents/failover: classify AbortError and stream-abort messages as timeout so Ollama NDJSON stream aborts stop showing <code>reason=unknown</code> in model fallback logs. (#58324) Thanks @yelog.</li>
<li>Fireworks/FirePass: disable Kimi K2.5 Turbo reasoning output by forcing thinking off on the FirePass path and hardening the provider wrapper so hidden reasoning no longer leaks into visible replies. (#63607) Thanks @frankekn.</li>
<li>Discord: update Carbon to v0.15.0. Thanks @thewilloftheshadow.</li>
<li>Config/Discord: coerce safe integer numeric Discord IDs to strings during config validation, keep unsafe or precision-losing numeric snowflakes rejected, and align <code>openclaw doctor</code> repair guidance with the same fail-closed behavior. (#45125) Thanks @moliendocode.</li>
<li>BlueBubbles/config: accept <code>enrichGroupParticipantsFromContacts</code> in the core strict config schema so gateways no longer fail validation or startup when the BlueBubbles plugin writes that field. (#56889) Thanks @zqchris.</li>
<li>Feishu/webhooks: read webhook bodies through the pre-auth guard so unauthenticated webhook traffic stays under the same body budget as other protected channel ingress paths.</li>
<li>Tools/web_fetch: add an opt-in <code>tools.web.fetch.ssrfPolicy.allowRfc2544BenchmarkRange</code> config so fake-IP proxy environments that resolve public sites into <code>198.18.0.0/15</code> can use <code>web_fetch</code> without weakening the default SSRF block. (#61830) Thanks @xing-xing-coder.</li>
<li>Dreaming/cron: reconcile managed dreaming cron from startup config and runtime lifecycle changes, but only recover managed dreaming cron state during heartbeat-triggered dreaming checks so ordinary chat traffic does not recreate removed jobs. (#63873, #63929, #63938) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Memory/lancedb: accept <code>dreaming</code> config when <code>memory-lancedb</code> owns the memory slot so Dreaming surfaces can read slot-owner settings without schema rejection. (#63874) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Control UI/dreaming: keep the Dreaming trace area contained and scrollable so overlays no longer cover tabs or blow out the page layout. (#63875) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Dreaming/narrative: harden request-scoped diary fallback so scheduled dreaming only falls back on the dedicated subagent-runtime error, stop trusting spoofable raw error-code objects, and avoid leaking workspace paths when local fallback writes fail. (#64156) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Dreaming/diary: add idempotent narrative subagent runs, preserve restrictive <code>DREAMS.md</code> permissions during atomic writes, and surface temp cleanup failures so repeated sweeps do not double-run the same narrative request or silently weaken diary safety. (#63876) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Heartbeats/sessions: remove stale accumulated isolated heartbeat session keys when the next tick converges them back to the canonical sibling, so repaired sessions stop showing orphaned <code>:heartbeat:heartbeat</code> variants in session listings. (#59606) Thanks @rogerdigital.</li>
<li>Gateway/run cleanup: fix stale run-context TTL cleanup so the new maintenance sweep resets orphaned run sequence state and prevents unbounded run-context growth. (#52731) Thanks @artwalker.</li>
<li>UI/compaction: keep the compaction indicator in a retry-pending state until the run actually finishes, so the UI does not show <code>Context compacted</code> before compaction actually finishes. (#55132) Thanks @mpz4life.</li>
<li>Cron/tool schemas: keep cron tool schemas strict-model-friendly while still preserving <code>failureAlert=false</code>, nullable <code>agentId</code>/<code>sessionKey</code>, and flattened add/update recovery for the newly exposed cron job fields. (#55043) Thanks @brunolorente.</li>
<li>Git metadata: read commit ids from packed refs as well as loose refs so version and status metadata stay accurate after repository maintenance. (#63943)</li>
<li>Gateway: keep <code>commands.list</code> skill entries categorized under tools and include provider-aware plugin <code>nativeName</code> metadata even when <code>scope=text</code>, so remote clients can group skills correctly and map text-surface plugin commands back to native aliases. (#64147)</li>
<li>TUI: reset footer activity to idle when switching sessions so a stale streaming indicator cannot persist after the selection changes. (#63988) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
<li>Claude CLI: stop marking spawned Claude Code runs as host-managed so they keep using normal CLI subscription behavior. (#64023) Thanks @Alex-Alaniz.</li>
<li>Codex auth: brand Codex OAuth flows as OpenClaw in user-visible auth prompts and diagnostics.</li>
<li>Gateway/pairing: fail closed for paired device records that have no device tokens, and reject pairing approvals whose requested scopes do not match the requested device roles.</li>
<li>ACP/gateway chat: classify lifecycle errors before forwarding them to ACP clients so refusals use ACP's refusal stop reason while transient backend errors continue to finish as normal turns.</li>
<li>Claude CLI/skills: pass eligible OpenClaw skills into CLI runs, including native Claude Code skill resolution via a temporary plugin plus per-run skill env/API key injection. (#62686, #62723) Thanks @zomars.</li>
<li>Discord: keep generated auto-thread names working with reasoning models by giving title generation enough output budget for thinking plus visible title text. (#64172) Thanks @hanamizuki.</li>
<li>Heartbeat: ignore doc-only Markdown fence markers in the default <code>HEARTBEAT.md</code> template so comment-only heartbeat scaffolds skip API calls again. (#61690, #63434) Thanks @ravyg.</li>
<li>Reply/skills: keep resolved skill and memory secret config stable through embedded reply runs so raw SecretRefs in secondary skill settings no longer crash replies when the gateway already has the live env. (#64249) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Dreaming/startup: keep plugin-registered startup hooks alive across workspace hook reloads and include dreaming startup owners in the gateway startup plugin scope, so managed Dreaming cron registration comes back reliably after gateway boot. (#62327, #64258) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Plugins: treat duplicate <code>registerService</code> calls from the same plugin id as idempotent so snapshot and activation loads no longer emit spurious <code>service already registered</code> diagnostics. (#62033, #64128) Thanks @ly85206559.</li>
<li>Discord/TTS: route auto voice replies through the native voice-note path so Discord receives Opus voice messages instead of regular audio attachments. (#64096) Thanks @LiuHuaize.</li>
<li>Config/plugins: use plugin-owned command alias metadata when <code>plugins.allow</code> contains runtime command names like <code>dreaming</code>, and point users at the owning plugin instead of stale plugin-not-found guidance. (#64191, #64242) Thanks @feiskyer.</li>
<li>Agents/Gemini: strip orphaned <code>required</code> entries from Gemini tool schemas so provider validation no longer rejects tools after schema cleanup or union flattening. (#64284) Thanks @xxxxxmax.</li>
<li>Assistant text: strip Qwen-style XML tool call payloads from visible replies so web and channel messages no longer show raw <code><tool_call><function=...></code> output. (#63999, #64214) Thanks @MoerAI.</li>
<li>Daemon/gateway: prevent systemd restart storms on configuration errors by exiting with <code>EX_CONFIG</code> and adding generated unit restart-prevention guards. (#63913) Thanks @neo1027144-creator.</li>
<li>Agents/exec: prevent gateway crash ("Agent listener invoked outside active run") when a subagent exec tool produces stdout/stderr after the agent run has ended or been aborted. (#62821) Thanks @openperf.</li>
<li>Gateway/OpenAI compat: return real <code>usage</code> for non-stream <code>/v1/chat/completions</code> responses, emit the final usage chunk when <code>stream_options.include_usage=true</code>, and bound usage-gated stream finalization after lifecycle end. (#62986) Thanks @Lellansin.</li>
<li>Matrix/migration: keep packaged warning-only crypto migrations from being misclassified as actionable when only helper chunks are present, so startup and doctor stay on the warning-only path instead of creating unnecessary migration snapshots. (#64373) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
<li>Matrix/ACP thread bindings: preserve canonical room casing and parent conversation routing during ACP session spawn so mixed-case room ids bind correctly from top-level rooms and existing Matrix threads. (#64343) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
<li>Agents/subagents: deduplicate delivered completion announces so retry or re-entry cleanup does not inject duplicate internal-context completion turns into the parent session. (#61525) Thanks @100yenadmin.</li>
<li>Agents/exec: keep sandboxed <code>tools.exec.host=auto</code> sessions from honoring per-call <code>host=node</code> or <code>host=gateway</code> overrides while a sandbox runtime is active, and stop advertising node routing in that state so exec stays on the sandbox host. (#63880)</li>
<li>Agents/subagents: preserve archived delete-mode runs until <code>sessions.delete</code> succeeds and prevent overlapping archive sweeps from duplicating in-flight cleanup attempts. (#61801) Thanks @100yenadmin.</li>
<li>Cron/isolated agent: run scheduled agent turns as non-owner senders so owner-only tools stay unavailable during cron execution. (#63878)</li>
<li>Discord/sandbox: include <code>image</code> in sandbox media param normalization so Discord event cover images cannot bypass sandbox path rewriting. (#64377) Thanks @mmaps.</li>
<li>Agents/exec: extend exec completion detection to cover local background exec formats so the owner-downgrade fires correctly for all exec paths. (#64376) Thanks @mmaps.</li>
<li>Security/dependencies: pin axios to 1.15.0 and add a plugin install dependency denylist that blocks known malicious packages before install. (#63891) Thanks @mmaps.</li>
<li>Browser/security: apply three-phase interaction navigation guard to pressKey and type(submit) so delayed JS redirects from keypress cannot bypass SSRF policy. (#63889) Thanks @mmaps.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Browser/security: guard existing-session Chrome MCP interaction routes with SSRF post-checks so delayed navigation from click, type, press, and evaluate cannot bypass the configured policy. (#64370) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Browser/security: default browser SSRF policy to strict mode so unconfigured installs block private-network navigation, and align external-content marker span mapping so ZWS-injected boundary spoofs are fully sanitized. (#63885) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Browser/security: apply SSRF navigation policy to subframe document navigations so iframe-targeted private-network hops are blocked without quarantining the parent page. (#64371) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Hooks/security: mark agent hook system events as untrusted and sanitize hook display names before cron metadata reuse. (#64372) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Daemon/launchd: keep <code>openclaw gateway stop</code> persistent without uninstalling the macOS LaunchAgent, re-enable it on explicit restart or repair, and harden launchd label handling. (#64447) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
<li>Plugins/context engines: preserve <code>plugins.slots.contextEngine</code> through normalization and keep explicitly selected workspace context-engine plugins enabled, so loader diagnostics and plugin activation stop dropping that slot selection. (#64192) Thanks @hclsys.</li>
<li>Heartbeat: stop top-level <code>interval:</code> and <code>prompt:</code> fields outside the <code>tasks:</code> block from bleeding into the last parsed heartbeat task. (#64488) Thanks @Rahulkumar070.</li>
<li>Agents/OpenAI replay: preserve malformed function-call arguments in stored assistant history, avoid double-encoding preserved raw strings on replay, and coerce replayed string args back to objects at Anthropic and Google provider boundaries. (#61956) Thanks @100yenadmin.</li>
<li>Heartbeat/config: accept and honor <code>agents.defaults.heartbeat.timeoutSeconds</code> and per-agent heartbeat timeout overrides for heartbeat agent turns. (#64491) Thanks @cedillarack.</li>
<li>CLI/devices: make implicit <code>openclaw devices approve</code> selection preview-only and require approving the exact request ID, preventing latest-request races during device pairing. (#64160) Thanks @coygeek.</li>
<li>Media/security: honor sender-scoped <code>toolsBySender</code> policy for outbound host-media reads so denied senders cannot trigger host file disclosure via attachment hydration. (#64459) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Browser/security: reject strict-policy hostname navigation unless the hostname is an explicit allowlist exception or IP literal, and route CDP HTTP discovery through the pinned SSRF fetch path. (#64367) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Models/vLLM: ignore empty <code>tool_calls</code> arrays from reasoning-model OpenAI-compatible replies, reset false <code>toolUse</code> stop reasons when no actual tool calls were parsed, and stop sending <code>tool_choice</code> unless tools are present so vLLM reasoning responses no longer hang indefinitely. (#61197, #61534) Thanks @balajisiva.</li>
<li>Heartbeat/scheduling: spread interval heartbeats across stable per-agent phases derived from gateway identity, so provider traffic is distributed more uniformly across the configured interval instead of clustering around startup-relative times. (#64560) Thanks @odysseus0.</li>
</ul>

            <description><![CDATA[<h2>OpenClaw 2026.4.9</h2>
<h3>Changes</h3>
<ul>
<li>Memory/dreaming: add a grounded REM backfill lane with historical <code>rem-harness --path</code>, diary commit/reset flows, cleaner durable-fact extraction, and live short-term promotion integration so old daily notes can replay into Dreams and durable memory without a second memory stack. Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Control UI/dreaming: add a structured diary view with timeline navigation, backfill/reset controls, traceable dreaming summaries, and a grounded Scene lane with promotion hints plus a safe clear-grounded action for staged backfill signals. (#63395) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>QA/lab: add character-vibes evaluation reports with model selection and parallel runs so live QA can compare candidate behavior faster.</li>
<li>Plugins/provider-auth: let provider manifests declare <code>providerAuthAliases</code> so provider variants can share env vars, auth profiles, config-backed auth, and API-key onboarding choices without core-specific wiring.</li>
<li>iOS: pin release versioning to an explicit CalVer in <code>apps/ios/version.json</code>, keep TestFlight iteration on the same short version until maintainers intentionally promote the next gateway version, and add the documented <code>pnpm ios:version:pin -- --from-gateway</code> workflow for release trains. (#63001) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Fixes</h3>
<ul>
<li>Browser/security: re-run blocked-destination safety checks after interaction-driven main-frame navigations from click, evaluate, hook-triggered click, and batched action flows, so browser interactions cannot bypass the SSRF quarantine when they land on forbidden URLs. (#63226) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Security/dotenv: block runtime-control env vars plus browser-control override and skip-server env vars from untrusted workspace <code>.env</code> files, and reject unsafe URL-style browser control override specifiers before lazy loading. (#62660, #62663) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Gateway/node exec events: mark remote node <code>exec.started</code>, <code>exec.finished</code>, and <code>exec.denied</code> summaries as untrusted system events and sanitize node-provided command/output/reason text before enqueueing them, so remote node output cannot inject trusted <code>System:</code> content into later turns. (#62659) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Plugins/onboarding auth choices: prevent untrusted workspace plugins from colliding with bundled provider auth-choice ids during non-interactive onboarding, so bundled provider setup keeps operator secrets out of untrusted workspace plugin handlers unless those plugins are explicitly trusted. (#62368) Thanks @pgondhi987.</li>
<li>Security/dependency audit: force <code>basic-ftp</code> to <code>5.2.1</code> for the CRLF command-injection fix and bump Hono plus <code>@hono/node-server</code> in production resolution paths.</li>
<li>Android/pairing: clear stale setup-code auth on new QR scans, bootstrap operator and node sessions from fresh pairing, prefer stored device tokens after bootstrap handoff, and pause pairing auto-retry while the app is backgrounded so scan-once Android pairing recovers reliably again. (#63199) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
<li>Matrix/gateway: wait for Matrix sync readiness before marking startup successful, keep Matrix background handler failures contained, and route fatal Matrix sync stops through channel-level restart handling instead of crashing the whole gateway. (#62779) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
<li>Slack/media: preserve bearer auth across same-origin <code>files.slack.com</code> redirects while still stripping it on cross-origin Slack CDN hops, so <code>url_private_download</code> image attachments load again. (#62960) Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
<li>Reply/doctor: use the active runtime snapshot for queued reply runs, resolve reply-run SecretRefs before preflight helpers touch config, surface gateway OAuth reauth failures to users, and make <code>openclaw doctor</code> call out exact reauth commands. (#62693, #63217) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Control UI: guard stale session-history reloads during fast session switches so the selected session and rendered transcript stay in sync. (#62975) Thanks @scoootscooob.</li>
<li>Gateway/chat: suppress exact and streamed <code>ANNOUNCE_SKIP</code> / <code>REPLY_SKIP</code> control replies across live chat updates and history sanitization so internal agent-to-agent control tokens no longer leak into user-facing gateway chat surfaces. (#51739) Thanks @Pinghuachiu.</li>
<li>Auto-reply/NO_REPLY: strip glued leading <code>NO_REPLY</code> tokens before reply normalization and ACP-visible streaming so silent sentinel text no longer leaks into user-visible replies while preserving substantive <code>NO_REPLY ...</code> text. Thanks @frankekn.</li>
<li>Sessions/routing: preserve established external routes on inter-session announce traffic so <code>sessions_send</code> follow-ups do not steal delivery from Telegram, Discord, or other external channels. (#58013) Thanks @duqaXxX.</li>
<li>Gateway/sessions: clear auto-fallback-pinned model overrides on <code>/reset</code> and <code>/new</code> while still preserving explicit user model selections, including legacy sessions created before override-source tracking existed. (#63155) Thanks @frankekn.</li>
<li>Slack/ACP: treat Slack ACP block replies as visible delivered output so OpenClaw stops re-sending the final fallback text after Slack already rendered the reply. (#62858) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
<li>Slack/partial streaming: key turn-local dedupe by dispatch kind and keep the final fallback reply path active when preview finalization fails so stale preview text cannot suppress the actual final answer. (#62859) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
<li>Matrix/doctor: migrate legacy <code>channels.matrix.dm.policy: "trusted"</code> configs back to compatible DM policies during <code>openclaw doctor --fix</code>, preserving explicit <code>allowFrom</code> boundaries as <code>allowlist</code> and defaulting empty legacy configs to <code>pairing</code>. (#62942) Thanks @lukeboyett.</li>
<li>npm packaging: mirror bundled channel runtime deps, stage Nostr runtime deps, derive required root mirrors from manifests and built chunks, and test packed release tarballs without repo <code>node_modules</code> so fresh installs fail fast on missing plugin deps instead of crashing at runtime. (#63065) Thanks @scoootscooob.</li>
<li>QA/live auth: fail fast when live QA scenarios hit classified auth or runtime failure replies, including raw scenario wait paths, and sanitize missing-key guidance so gateway auth problems surface as actionable errors instead of timeouts. (#63333) Thanks @shakkernerd.</li>
<li>Providers/OpenAI: default missing reasoning effort to <code>high</code> on OpenAI Responses, WebSocket, and compatible completions transports, while still honoring explicit per-run reasoning levels.</li>
<li>Providers/Ollama: allow Ollama models using the native <code>api: "ollama"</code> path to optionally display thinking output when <code>/think</code> is set to a non-off level. (#62712) Thanks @hoyyeva.</li>
<li>Codex CLI: pass OpenClaw's system prompt through Codex's <code>model_instructions_file</code> config override so fresh Codex CLI sessions receive the same prompt guidance as Claude CLI sessions.</li>
<li>Auth/profiles: persist explicit auth-profile upserts directly and skip external CLI sync for local writes so profile changes are saved without stale external credential state.</li>
<li>Agents/timeouts: make the LLM idle timeout inherit <code>agents.defaults.timeoutSeconds</code> when configured, disable the unconfigured idle watchdog for cron runs, and point idle-timeout errors at <code>agents.defaults.llm.idleTimeoutSeconds</code>. Thanks @drvoss.</li>
<li>Agents/failover: classify Z.ai vendor code <code>1311</code> as billing and <code>1113</code> as auth, including long wrapped <code>1311</code> payloads, so these errors stop falling through to generic failover handling. (#49552) Thanks @1bcMax.</li>
<li>QQBot/media-tags: support HTML entity-encoded angle brackets (<code>&lt;</code>/<code>&gt;</code>), URL slashes in attributes, and self-closing media tags so upstream <code><qqimg></code> payloads are correctly parsed and normalized. (#60493) Thanks @ylc0919.</li>
<li>Memory/dreaming: harden grounded backfill inputs, diary writes, status payloads, and diary action classification by preserving source-day labels, rejecting missing or symlinked targets cleanly, normalizing diary headings in gateway backfills, and tightening claim splitting plus diary source metadata. Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Memory/dreaming: accept embedded heartbeat trigger tokens so light and REM dreaming still run when runtime wrappers include extra heartbeat text.</li>
<li>Android/manual connect: allow blank port input only for TLS manual gateway endpoints so standard HTTPS Tailscale hosts default to <code>443</code> without silently changing cleartext manual connects. (#63134) Thanks @Tyler-RNG.</li>
<li>Windows/update: add heap headroom to Windows <code>pnpm build</code> steps during dev updates so update preflight builds stop failing on low default Node memory.</li>
<li>Plugin SDK: export the channel plugin base and web-search config contract through the public package so plugins can use them without private imports.</li>
<li>Plugins/contracts: keep test-only helpers out of production contract barrels, load shared contract harnesses through bundled test surfaces, and harden guardrails so indirect re-exports and canonical <code>*.test.ts</code> files stay blocked. (#63311) Thanks @altaywtf.</li>
<li>Control UI/models: preserve provider-qualified refs for OpenRouter catalog models whose ids already contain slashes so picker selections submit allowlist-compatible model refs instead of dropping the <code>openrouter/</code> prefix. (#63416) Thanks @sallyom.</li>
<li>Plugin SDK/command auth: split command status builders onto the lightweight <code>openclaw/plugin-sdk/command-status</code> subpath while preserving deprecated <code>command-auth</code> compatibility exports, so auth-only plugin imports no longer pull status/context warmup into CLI onboarding paths. (#63174) Thanks @hxy91819.</li>
