- State integrity checks now detect orphan transcript files in the sessions directory. Archiving them as `.deleted.<timestamp>` requires an interactive confirmation; `--fix`, `--yes`, and headless runs leave them in place.
- Doctor also scans `~/.openclaw/cron/jobs.json` (or `cron.store`) for legacy cron job shapes and can rewrite them in place before the scheduler has to auto-normalize them at runtime.
- On Linux, doctor warns when the user's crontab still runs legacy `~/.openclaw/bin/ensure-whatsapp.sh`; that script is no longer maintained and can log false WhatsApp gateway outages when cron lacks the systemd user-bus environment.
- Doctor cleans legacy plugin dependency staging state created by older OpenClaw versions. It also repairs missing configured downloadable plugins when the registry can resolve them, and the 2026.5.2 doctor pass automatically installs downloadable plugins that an older config already uses before marking the config touched for that release. If the download fails, doctor reports the install error and preserves the configured plugin entry for the next repair attempt.
- Doctor cleans legacy plugin dependency staging state created by older OpenClaw versions. It also repairs missing downloadable plugins that are referenced by config, such as `plugins.entries`, configured channels, configured provider/search settings, or configured agent runtimes. During package updates, doctor skips package-manager plugin repair until the package swap is complete; rerun `openclaw doctor --fix` afterward if a configured plugin still needs recovery. If the download fails, doctor reports the install error and preserves the configured plugin entry for the next repair attempt.
- Doctor repairs stale plugin config by removing missing plugin ids from `plugins.allow`/`plugins.entries`, plus matching dangling channel config, heartbeat targets, and channel model overrides when plugin discovery is healthy.
- Doctor quarantines invalid plugin config by disabling the affected `plugins.entries.<id>` entry and removing its invalid `config` payload. Gateway startup already skips only that bad plugin so other plugins and channels can keep running.
- Set `OPENCLAW_SERVICE_REPAIR_POLICY=external` when another supervisor owns the gateway lifecycle. Doctor still reports gateway/service health and applies non-service repairs, but skips service install/start/restart/bootstrap and legacy service cleanup.
