@@ -17,6 +17,7 @@ Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai
 - Setup/providers: guard preferred-provider lookup during setup so malformed plugin metadata with a missing provider id no longer crashes the wizard with `Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'trim')`. (#66649) Thanks @Tianworld.
 - Matrix/security: normalize sandboxed profile avatar params, preserve `mxc://` avatar URLs, and surface gmail watcher stop failures during reload. (#64701) Thanks @slepybear.
 - Telegram/documents: drop leaked binary caption bytes from inbound Telegram text handling so document uploads like `.mobi` or `.epub` no longer explode prompt token counts. (#66663) Thanks @joelnishanth.
+- Gateway/auth: resolve the active gateway bearer per-request on the HTTP server and the HTTP upgrade handler via `getResolvedAuth()`, mirroring the WebSocket path, so a secret rotated through `secrets.reload` or config hot-reload stops authenticating on `/v1/*`, `/tools/invoke`, plugin HTTP routes, and the canvas upgrade path immediately instead of remaining valid on HTTP until gateway restart. (#66651) Thanks @mmaps.
