fix: serialize bundled runtime dependency repair

@@ -47,6 +47,11 @@ Benefits:
 - Prefer a first-party OpenClaw surface when the task is fundamentally "run inference."
 - Use the normal local path without requiring the gateway for most infer commands.
 
+For end-to-end provider checks, prefer `openclaw infer ...` once lower-level
+provider tests are green. It exercises the shipped CLI, config loading,
+default-agent resolution, bundled plugin activation, runtime-dependency repair,
+and the shared capability runtime before the provider request is made.

+- Use `image generate --model <provider/model> --json` as the narrowest live

 - For `image describe`, `--model` must be an image-capable `<provider/model>`.
 - For local Ollama vision models, pull the model first and set `OLLAMA_API_KEY` to any placeholder value, for example `ollama-local`. See [Ollama](/providers/ollama#vision-and-image-description).
