Fixes#59545.
Suppress the macOS General/Tailscale initial hydration apply path from rewriting openclaw.json when settings are unchanged, and add regression coverage for gateway/auth/meta/wizard preservation.
Verified on the retry head 8a30aa831c:
- GitHub CI completed successfully, including macos-node, macos-swift, check-docs, security, Workflow Sanity, and OpenGrep.
- Review threads were empty before merge.
- Duplicate sweep kept #59545 as the canonical standalone issue; no duplicate closures were appropriate.
Fixes#63195.
Closes#68162.
Closes#73546.
- Keep Control UI chat sends bound to the history-backed session id across reconnects.
- Accept chat.send sessionId at the gateway/protocol boundary and update generated Swift models.
- Resume the last selected TUI session for the same gateway/agent/scope when still present.

Adds the SDK-facing tools.invoke Gateway RPC for #74705.
Reuses the /tools/invoke policy path for tool policy, deny-list, owner filtering, before-tool-call hooks, session/agent scoping, and plugin approval handling. Returns typed SDK approval/refusal/success results while preserving HTTP compatibility and uses idempotencyKey as the stable tool-call id.
Includes protocol schema exports, method scope/list registration, SDK helper/types, docs, generated Swift models, tests, and changelog credit.
Harden gateway recovery diagnostics and media delivery.\n\n- Accept gateway send asVoice and map it to outbound audioAsVoice.\n- Preserve generated Swift protocol models for the gateway send schema.\n- Keep the broader recovery hardening for install/update/status/vector/TTS paths in one reviewed PR.\n\nProof:\n- Focused local gateway/outbound/update/status/doctor/sqlite-vec tests passed.\n- oxfmt --check and git diff --check passed.\n- Testbox OPENCLAW_TESTBOX=1 pnpm check:changed passed at 2f5ef650e97763a61ff43c28e61707db84c50060.\n- GitHub required checks are green at the merge SHA; the qa-lab parity gate is optional/surface-only and was still pending.
Replaces JavaScriptCore catalog evaluation with a bounded fail-closed object-literal parser for the generated macOS model catalog.\n\nValidation: macos-node, macos-swift, security-fast, security-scm-fast, security-dependency-audit, workflow sanity checks passed on PR #73112.
Fixes#68160.
Drops stale optionality from the hello-ok auth schema and keeps generated Swift models, macOS fixtures, browser client types, protocol docs, and merged-base test boundaries aligned.
