* fix(plugins): resolve sdk alias from import.meta.url for external plugins
When a plugin is installed outside the openclaw package (e.g.
~/.openclaw/extensions/), resolveLoaderPluginSdkPackageRoot() fails to
locate the openclaw root via cwd or argv1 hints, resulting in an empty
alias map. Jiti then cannot resolve openclaw/plugin-sdk/* imports and
the plugin fails to load with "Cannot find module".
Since sdk-alias.ts is always compiled into the openclaw package itself,
import.meta.url reliably points inside the installation directory. Add it
as an unconditional fallback in resolveLoaderPluginSdkPackageRoot() so
external plugins can always resolve the plugin SDK.
Fixes: Error: Cannot find module 'openclaw/plugin-sdk/plugin-entry'
* fix(plugins): pass loader moduleUrl to resolve sdk alias for external plugins
The previous approach of adding import.meta.url as an unconditional
fallback inside resolveLoaderPluginSdkPackageRoot() broke test isolation:
tests that expected null from untrusted fixtures started finding the real
openclaw root. Revert that and instead thread an optional moduleUrl through
buildPluginLoaderAliasMap → resolvePluginSdkScopedAliasMap →
listPluginSdkExportedSubpaths → resolveLoaderPluginSdkPackageRoot.
loader.ts passes its own import.meta.url as the hint, which is always
inside the openclaw installation. This guarantees the sdk alias map is
built correctly even when argv1 does not resolve to the openclaw root
(e.g. single-binary distributions, custom launchers, or Docker images
where the binary wrapper is not a standard npm symlink).
Tests that call sdk-alias helpers directly without moduleUrl are
unaffected and continue to enforce the existing isolation semantics.
A new test covers the moduleUrl resolution path explicitly.
* fix(plugins): use existing fixture file for moduleUrl hint in test
The previous test pointed loaderModuleUrl to dist/plugins/loader.js
which is not created by createPluginSdkAliasFixture, causing resolution
to fall back to the real openclaw root instead of the fixture root.
Use fixture.root/openclaw.mjs (created by the bin+marker fixture) so
the moduleUrl hint reliably resolves to the fixture package root.
* fix(test): use fixture.root as cwd in external plugin alias test
When process.cwd() is mocked to the external plugin dir, the
findNearestPluginSdkPackageRoot(process.cwd()) fallback resolves to
the real openclaw repo root in the CI test runner, making the test
resolve the wrong aliases. Using fixture.root as cwd ensures all
resolution paths consistently point to the fixture.

* fix(release): add plugin-sdk:check-exports to release:check
plugin-sdk subpath exports (e.g. openclaw/plugin-sdk/plugin-entry,
openclaw/plugin-sdk/provider-auth) were missing from the published
package.json, causing external plugins to fail at load time with
'Cannot find module openclaw/plugin-sdk/plugin-entry'.
Root cause: sync-plugin-sdk-exports.mjs syncs plugin-sdk-entrypoints.json
into package.json exports, but this sync was never validated in the
release:check pipeline. As a result, any drift between
plugin-sdk-entrypoints.json and the published package.json goes
undetected until users hit the runtime error.
Fix: add plugin-sdk:check-exports to release:check so the CI gate
fails loudly if the exports are out of sync before publishing.
* fix(test): isolate moduleUrl hint test from process.cwd() fallback
Use externalPluginRoot as cwd instead of fixture.root, so only the
moduleUrl hint can resolve the openclaw package root. Previously,
withCwd(fixture.root) allowed the process.cwd() fallback to also
resolve the fixture root, making the moduleUrl path untested.
Spotted by greptile-apps review on #54283.
* fix(test): use empty string to disable argv1 in moduleUrl hint test
Passing undefined for argv1 in buildPluginLoaderAliasMap triggers the
STARTUP_ARGV1 default (process.argv[1], the vitest runner binary inside
the openclaw repo). resolveTrustedOpenClawRootFromArgvHint then resolves
to the real openclaw root before the moduleUrl hint is checked, making
the test resolve wrong aliases.
Pass "" instead: falsy so the hint is skipped, but does not trigger the
default parameter value. Only the moduleUrl can bridge the gap.
Made-with: Cursor
* fix(plugins): thread moduleUrl through SDK alias resolution for external plugins (#54283) Thanks @xieyongliang
