 ### Fixes
 
 - Control UI: point the Appearance tweakcn browse action and docs at the live tweakcn editor route instead of the removed `/themes` page. Fixes #77048.
+- Control UI: render Dream Diary prose through the sanitized markdown pipeline, so diary bold/italic/header markdown no longer appears as literal source text. Fixes #62413.
 - Diagnostics: keep webhook/message OTEL attributes and Prometheus delivery labels low-cardinality and omit raw chat/message IDs from spans, so progress-draft and message-tool modes do not leak high-cardinality messaging identifiers.
 - Google Meet: stop advertising legacy `mode: "realtime"` to agents and config UIs, while keeping it as a hidden compatibility alias for `mode: "agent"`, so new joins use the STT -> OpenClaw agent -> TTS path instead of selecting the direct realtime voice fallback.
 - Google Meet: add `chrome.audioBufferBytes` for generated command-pair SoX audio commands and lower the default buffer from SoX's 8192 bytes to 4096 bytes to reduce Chrome talk-back latency.
