 - Discord: read `channel.parentId` through a safe accessor in the slash-command, reaction, and model-picker paths so partial `GuildThreadChannel` prototype getters no longer throw `Cannot access rawData on partial Channel` when commands like `/new` run from inside a thread. Fixes #69861. (#69908) Thanks @neeravmakwana.
 - Browser/Chrome MCP: reset cached existing-session control sessions when a `navigate_page` call times out, so one stuck navigation no longer poisons the browser profile until a gateway restart. (#69733) Thanks @ayeshakhalid192007-dev.
 - Browser/Chrome MCP: propagate click timeouts and abort signals to existing-session actions so a stuck click fails fast and reconnects instead of poisoning the browser tool until gateway restart. (#63524) Thanks @dongseok0.
+- Gateway/channel health: base stale-socket recovery on provider-proven transport activity instead of inbound app-event freshness, preventing quiet Slack, Discord, Telegram, Matrix, and local-style channels from being restarted solely because no user traffic arrived. (#69833) Thanks @bek91.
 - OpenCode Go: canonicalize stale bundled `opencode-go` base URLs from `/go` or `/go/v1` to `/zen/go` or `/zen/go/v1`, so older generated model metadata stops hitting the 404 HTML endpoint. (#69898)
 - CLI/channels: honor `channels.<id>.enabled=false` as a hard read-only presence opt-out, so env vars, manifest env vars, or stale persisted auth state no longer make disabled channel plugins appear in status, doctor, or setup-only discovery.
 - Channels/preview streaming: centralize draft-preview finalization so Slack, Discord, Mattermost, and Matrix no longer flush temporary preview messages for media/error finals, and preserve first-reply threading for normal fallback delivery.
