The restart helper and taskkill spawn calls were missing windowsHide: true,
causing visible command prompt windows to flash on screen during gateway
restart and process cleanup on Windows.
* fix(gateway): correct launchctl command sequence for gateway restart (closes#20030)
* fix(restart): expand HOME and escape label in launchctl plist path
* fix(restart): poll port free after SIGKILL to prevent EADDRINUSE restart loop
When cleanStaleGatewayProcessesSync() kills a stale gateway process,
the kernel may not immediately release the TCP port. Previously the
function returned after a fixed 500ms sleep (300ms SIGTERM + 200ms
SIGKILL), allowing triggerOpenClawRestart() to hand off to systemd
before the port was actually free. The new systemd process then raced
the dying socket for port 18789, hit EADDRINUSE, and exited with
status 1, causing systemd to retry indefinitely — the zombie restart
loop reported in #33103.
Fix: add waitForPortFreeSync() that polls lsof at 50ms intervals for
up to 2 seconds after SIGKILL. cleanStaleGatewayProcessesSync() now
blocks until the port is confirmed free (or the budget expires with a
warning) before returning. The increased SIGTERM/SIGKILL wait budgets
(600ms / 400ms) also give slow processes more time to exit cleanly.

* fix: add EADDRINUSE retry and TIME_WAIT port-bind checks for gateway startup
* fix(ports): treat EADDRNOTAVAIL as non-retryable and fix flaky test
* fix(gateway): hot-reload agents.defaults.models allowlist changes
The reload plan had a rule for `agents.defaults.model` (singular) but
not `agents.defaults.models` (plural — the allowlist array). Because
`agents.defaults.models` does not prefix-match `agents.defaults.model.`,
it fell through to the catch-all `agents` tail rule (kind=none), so
allowlist edits in openclaw.json were silently ignored at runtime.
Add a dedicated reload rule so changes to the models allowlist trigger
a heartbeat restart, which re-reads the config and serves the updated
list to clients.

* test(restart): 100% branch coverage — audit round 2
Audit findings fixed:
- remove dead guard: terminateStaleProcessesSync pids.length===0 check was
unreachable (only caller cleanStaleGatewayProcessesSync already guards)
- expose __testing.callSleepSyncRaw so sleepSync's real Atomics.wait path
can be unit-tested directly without going through the override
- fix broken sleepSync Atomics.wait test: previous test set override=null
but cleanStaleGatewayProcessesSync returned before calling sleepSync —
replaced with direct callSleepSyncRaw calls that actually exercise L36/L42-47
- fix pid collision: two tests used process.pid+304 (EPERM + dead-at-SIGTERM);
EPERM test changed to process.pid+305
- fix misindented tests: 'deduplicates pids' and 'lsof status 1 container
edge case' were outside their intended describe blocks; moved to correct
scopes (findGatewayPidsOnPortSync and pollPortOnce respectively)
- add missing branch tests:
- status 1 + non-empty stdout with zero openclaw pids → free:true (L145)
- mid-loop non-openclaw cmd in &&-chain (L67)
- consecutive p-lines without c-line between them (L67)
- invalid PID in p-line (p0 / pNaN) — ternary false branch (L67)
- unknown lsof output line (else-if false branch L69)
Coverage: 100% stmts / 100% branch / 100% funcs / 100% lines (36 tests)
* test(restart): fix stale-pid test typing for tsgo
* fix(gateway): address lifecycle review findings
* test(update): make restart-helper path assertions windows-safe

The updater was previously attempting to restart the service using the
installed codebase, which could be in an inconsistent state during the
update process. This caused the service to stall when the updater
deleted its own files before the restart could complete.
Changes:
- restart-helper.ts: new module that writes a platform-specific restart
script to os.tmpdir() before the update begins (Linux systemd, macOS
launchctl, Windows schtasks).
- update-command.ts: prepares the restart script before installing, then
uses it for service restart instead of the standard runDaemonRestart.
- restart-helper.test.ts: 12 tests covering all platforms, custom
profiles, error cases, and shell injection safety.
Review feedback addressed:
- Use spawn(detached: true) + unref() so restart script survives parent
process termination (Greptile).
- Shell-escape profile values using single-quote wrapping to prevent
injection via OPENCLAW_PROFILE (Greptile).
- Reject unsafe batch characters on Windows.
- Self-cleanup: scripts delete themselves after execution (Copilot).
- Add tests for write failures and custom profiles (Copilot).
Fixes#17225
