OpenAI removed the /backend-api/responses alias on chatgpt.com server-side.
The OpenAI SDK appends /responses to the configured baseUrl, so OpenClaw's
current baseUrl ("https://chatgpt.com/backend-api") now resolves to
/backend-api/responses and hits a Cloudflare HTML 403 block page. The
provider's 403+HTML error classifier then surfaces this as an auth-scope
failure, triggering fruitless OAuth re-login loops for every GPT-5.4
sub-agent call.
- Point OPENAI_CODEX_BASE_URL at https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex
(both the catalog constant and the sibling local constant in the provider).
- Extend isOpenAICodexBaseUrl to accept the new /codex segment while keeping
the legacy path recognized so pre-existing user configs and persisted
model metadata still round-trip through the normalizer correctly.
- Add positive-case test coverage for the new base URL; update existing
normalization tests whose expected canonical output now includes /codex.
Verified with live curl using the exact OAuth access token stored by
OpenClaw: the /codex/responses path returns HTTP 200 with streaming SSE,
while the old /responses alias returns HTTP 403 HTML regardless of auth
headers. Scoped tests (base-url, openai-codex-provider, transport-policy,
openai-provider, index) pass; pnpm tsgo and pnpm build are clean.
Adds tiered model pricing support for cost tracking, keeps configured pricing ahead of cached catalog values, and includes latest Moonshot Kimi K2.6/K2.5 cost estimates.\n\nThanks @sliverp.
Adds missing compatibility runtime path metadata for bundled SecretRef-capable web-search providers and keeps the manifest registry covered by a regression test.\n\nThanks @afurm!
Raise the Telegram polling watchdog default from 90s to 120s and add bounded channels.telegram.pollingStallThresholdMs overrides, including per-account config.\n\nThanks @Vitalcheffe.
