* feat(ui): redesign /btw side chat into floating multi-turn panel
The inline BTW side-result card becomes a floating Side chat panel pinned
to the thread column: multi-turn conversation with markdown answers, a
follow-up input that carries the previous side answer as context, and
header actions to clear (retires the pending run) or close (conversation
and pending run survive; an arriving answer reopens the panel).
* fix(ui): carry prior side question in follow-ups; display typed question structurally
Review follow-ups: the /btw follow-up command now embeds both the previous
side question and answer (answers alone lose the referents), and the panel
shows the user's typed question via structured state (pending record
correlated by runId) instead of parsing a marker out of user-controlled
command text.
* fix(ui): stop pending side runs on clear and keep rejected follow-up drafts
Trash now sends a targeted chat.abort for the pending /btw run (the retire
set still suppresses its late events if the abort races), the follow-up
input is hidden while disconnected like other slash sends, and a rejected
detached send restores the typed follow-up into the panel input.
* test(ui): attach side-chat panel test container for restore assertion
* fix(ui): block side-chat follow-ups while pending; notify rejection on pre-send exits
A follow-up while a question is pending would retire the in-flight run and
silently drop its answer, so the panel input is disabled until the answer
lands. The rejection callback now fires on every non-accepted path of the
guarded detached send (early exits, guard dedupe, rejected acks), not just
rejected acknowledgements.
* fix(ui): render side-chat questions verbatim
Pending and turn questions are already display-ready (chat-send strips
composer commands, the server echo carries no /btw prefix, panel follow-ups
pass structured text); re-extracting corrupted questions that begin with a
command token.
* refactor(sessions): migrate runtime storage to sqlite
* test(sessions): fix sqlite CI regressions
* test(sessions): align remaining sqlite fixtures
* fix(codex): require sqlite trajectory recorder
* test(sessions): align orphan recovery sqlite fixture
* test(sessions): align sqlite rebase fixtures
* fix(sessions): finish current-main integration of the sqlite flip
Resolve the whole-store SDK removal across its owner boundary: drop the
loadSessionStore re-export and the registry whole-store wrappers, wire
hasTrackedActiveSessionRun into gateway chat, complete the
preserveLockedHarnessIds cleanup contract, flip the codex thread-history
import to storePath targets, and port remaining main-side tests from
file-store helpers to session accessor reads.
* chore: drop committed pebbles log, revert plugin-inspector bump, refresh generated docs
Remove the 1.8k-line .pebbles/events.jsonl work log from the branch, restore
the plugin-inspector advisory lane to main's pinned 0.3.10 so the supply-chain
bump gets its own review, and regenerate docs_map, the plugin SDK API baseline,
and the export-surface ratchet for the merged tree.
* feat(sessions): keep archived transcripts by default with zstd cold storage
Codex-style retention: deleting or resetting a session archives its
transcript as a zstd-compressed JSONL artifact (plain when the runtime
lacks node:zlib zstd) and keeps it until the disk budget evicts oldest
first. resetArchiveRetention now governs both deleted and reset archives
and defaults to keep; maxDiskBytes defaults to 2gb so retention stays
bounded, with archives evicted before live sessions. The cron reaper
follows the same knob instead of deleting archives on its own timer.
* fix(state): converge agent DB migration lineages and bound database growth
Merge coherence: run both structure-gated legacy memory-schema repairs
(flip-lineage drop, main-lineage identity rebuild) before the flip
migration so pre-flip v1/v2 and pre-merge flip v1/v4 databases all
converge, and hoist foreign_keys=OFF outside the schema transaction
where the pragma was silently ignored and the v1 sessions rebuild
cascade-deleted session_entries.
Growth guards: fresh agent DBs enable auto_vacuum=INCREMENTAL, WAL
maintenance releases freed pages in bounded passes (never a blocking
full VACUUM), and doctor reports state/agent DB bloat from freelist
stats.
* fix(codex): resolve the store path for thread-history import via the SDK
The supervision catalog passed the legacy sessionFile locator to the
storePath-targeted transcript mirror; resolve the agent store path with
the session-store SDK helper instead of a runtime-object seam so test
fakes and headless callers need no extra surface. Drop the obsolete
missing-session-id preprocessing case: sessions rows are NOT NULL on
session_id and upsert repairs id-less patches at write time.
* fix(sessions): fail safe on malformed disk-budget config and doctor stat errors
A malformed explicit maxDiskBytes disables the budget instead of
falling back to the destructive 2gb default the user never chose, and
the doctor bloat check skips databases whose paths stat-fail instead of
aborting doctor.
* fix(sessions): complete sqlite conflict translations
* test(sqlite): align hardening checks with maintenance
* test(sessions): inspect compressed transcript archives
* fix(tests): await session seeds and drop unused helpers flagged by CI lint
The five unawaited writeSessionStoreSeed calls raced their SQLite seeds
against the assertions, failing compact shards; the bloat probe drops a
useless initializer and the merged tests drop now-unused helpers.
* test(sessions): type legacy proof events directly
* test(sessions): align hardening contracts
* perf(sessions): read usage transcript sizes from SQL aggregates
Usage/cost scans walked every session and materialized every transcript
event just to re-stringify it for a byte estimate — the #86718 stall
class reborn on the DB. readTranscriptStatsSync sums stored JSON bytes
in SQLite without loading a single row.
* fix(sessions): re-root foreign-root transcript paths onto the current sessions dir
Restored backups, moved OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR, and rehearsal copies carry
absolute sessionFile paths from the old root; the containment fallback
kept those foreign paths, so migration read (and would archive) files in
the original root and reported local copies missing. Re-root the
canonical agents/<id>/sessions suffix onto the current dir when the file
exists there; genuine cross-root layouts still fall through unchanged.
* test(agents): seed harness admission through sqlite
* fix(sqlite): close agent db on pragma setup failure
* fix(doctor): compact and retrofit incremental auto-vacuum after session import
The migration is the sanctioned offline window: post-import compact
reclaims import churn and applies auto_vacuum=INCREMENTAL to databases
created before the fresh-DB pragma existed, so runtime maintenance can
release pages in bounded passes on every install.

* feat(sessions): durable session state events with parent invalidation
Parents no longer act on stale child-session state: a durable, typed
signal log (session_state_events + per-agent heads) records direct human
messages to children, child spawn/terminal outcomes, goal changes, and
compaction at the seams where those facts are created. A frozen-watermark
cursor protocol (session_watch_cursors) delivers one coalesced system
notice to the parent through the existing system-event + heartbeat wake
idiom, acknowledged at the shared generic drain, with a deferred startup
sweep for restart recovery. session_status gains stateVersion and
changesSince (with exact pruned-history gap signaling); sessions_list
rows gain stateVersion.
Closes#104565
* chore: regenerate docs map and prompt snapshots for session_status changesSince
* feat: node-hosted plugins — dynamic tools, MCP servers, and skills
Nodes become declarative plugin hosts:
- node.pluginTools.update: node hosts publish plugin-registered agent tool
descriptors; gateway materializes them as agent tools executing via
node.invoke under the node command allowlist, with tools.effective
invalidation and node online/offline removal.
- Trusted paired-node descriptors: no gateway-side plugin registration
required; gateway.nodes.pluginTools.enabled off-switch (default on);
description/count caps; deterministic node-prefixed collision names.
- Declarative node-hosted MCP: nodeHost.mcp.servers (McpServerConfig shape)
starts MCP clients on the node host, publishes tools as pluginId node-mcp,
executes via built-in mcp.tools.call.v1 with per-layer timeouts, failure
isolation, and orphan-safe shutdown. No re-pairing when servers change.
- Node-hosted skills: node.skills.update publishes ~/.openclaw/skills
content (64 skills/64KB/512KB caps both sides); gateway merges them into
the skills snapshot while connected and exec host=node is available, with
node:// locators, node-prefixed collisions, disabled command dispatch,
and gateway.nodes.skills.enabled + nodeHost.skills.enabled switches.
- Security: node-supplied pluginIds cannot satisfy pluginId-scoped tool
allowlists unless gateway-registered; reserved node-mcp id requires the
core MCP descriptor shape; protocol registry kept out of public
plugin-sdk dts.
- E2E: pond harness proves publication, MCP round-trip, skills locator, and
disconnect/reconnect for all three surfaces.
* style: format node-plugin-tools test
* fix(skills): keep status loader unfiltered when eligibility is passed
skills.status started passing eligibility for the node-skill merge, which
flipped loadWorkspaceSkillEntries into filtered mode and dropped disabled
skills from status reports (QA plugin-lifecycle-hot-reload timeout). Status
now merges node skills explicitly around an unfiltered load. Also: regen
docs_map for new node docs sections; add the intentional node-host MCP
onclose suppression to the lint-suppression allowlist.

* fix(control-ui): retire abandoned BTW runs so late side events never reach the transcript
* chore(docs): regenerate docs map for btw selection-popup section; fix selection-popup test lint
* fix(agents): apply stale-run liveness to aborted subagent orphan recovery
Skip stale unended subagent runs during orphan recovery and registry
restore, even when they carry abortedLastRun. Previously, restart-aborted
runs were exempt from the stale-unended age check, allowing hours-old
aborted child sessions to be resurrected after long downtime.

* fix(agents): finalize stale aborted runs instead of only skipping them
Previously the stale-run check in recoverOrphanedSubagentSessions only
incremented the skipped counter. Stale active runs were left unended
because scheduleOrphanRecovery only retries failedRuns, not skipped runs.
Now stale runs are finalized via finalizeInterruptedSubagentRun so they
don't remain orphaned in the registry.

* fix(agents): await stale-run finalization in orphan recovery

* test(agents): faithful restart-path proof for stale orphan recovery
Drive the real recoverOrphanedSubagentSessions against the real subagent
registry, the real isStaleUnendedSubagentRun policy, and a real on-disk
session store, mocking only the outbound gateway transport and transcript
reader. Proves finalizeInterruptedSubagentRun actually ends the stale
aborted run in the registry (endedAt set, outcome error) instead of
resuming it, while a fresh aborted run still resumes.

* fix(exec): auto-approve recognized read-only boolean flags on default safe bins
Default safe bins (cut, head, tail, tr, uniq, wc) auto-approve stdin-only
text-filter invocations, but the short-option validator only had an accept
path for value-consuming flags: a cluster of pure boolean short flags fell
through to a terminal reject, so common read-only forms like 'wc -l',
'tr -d', 'uniq -c' and 'sort -n' were force-routed to manual approval even
though the bins are stdin-only and the dangerous flags are already denied.
Add an allowedBooleanFlags allowlist to the safe-bin profile model and
populate it for the default bins with their read-only boolean flags. The
short-cluster validator now accepts recognized boolean flags and the long
validator reuses its existing boolean-flag accept branch (previously
unreachable). Unrecognized short flags (e.g. 'tr -S') stay fail-closed, and
denied flags are still rejected first.
* fix(exec): keep safe-bin allowedBooleanFlags off the config-facing fixture type
The boolean-flag allowlist for default safe bins leaked onto SafeBinProfileFixture, the type used for tools.exec.safeBinProfiles, while the strict zod schema and the config normalizer never accepted or preserved the key. Move allowedBooleanFlags to an internal BuiltinSafeBinProfileFixture used only for the curated built-in profiles; custom config profiles keep the allowedValueFlags/deniedFlags model.
Adds tests proving built-in profiles still honor the boolean allowlist and that a custom profile cannot widen it.

* fix(doctor): gate cross-state-dir legacy imports behind explicit doctor opt-in
A gateway or CLI command started with OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR pointing at a
non-default directory used to import legacy files FROM the default
~/.openclaw state dir (exec-approvals.json, plugin-binding-approvals.json)
and archive the originals with a .migrated suffix. Any isolated, test, or
staging run on a host with production state silently captured and archived
the production files.
Cross-state-dir imports now run only with the new crossStateDirImports
opt-in: openclaw doctor --fix (or an interactive doctor confirm) performs
the import; the implicit CLI/gateway preflight leaves the default dir
untouched and emits a notice pointing at doctor instead.
* test(doctor): include notices in legacy-state detector mocks
* test: shorten loopback token fixtures below secret-scanner thresholds
* feat: carry gateway client capabilities through the CLI loopback backend
CLI-backed model runs now transport the originating client's declared
capabilities along the existing per-field loopback contract: RunCliAgentParams
gains clientCaps, prepare emits OPENCLAW_MCP_CLIENT_CAPS, the loopback header
template forwards x-openclaw-client-caps, the request context parses and
normalizes it (grant-authenticated callers keep ignoring spoofable headers),
and the loopback tool cache keys on a stable caps serialization so capless and
capped requests never share tool lists. Capability-gated tools such as
show_widget now work on CLI backends; the CLI session binding hash includes
caps, consistent with messageProvider. Cron and command-attempt runs stay
capless (fail closed).
Fixes#102577
Adds client-capability-gated tool availability: gateway clients declare
capabilities at connect (new inline-widgets cap), chat.send stamps them into
the run context, and every tool assembly path (embedded runner, queued
followups, Codex app-server harness, plugin-only construction plans) drops
tools whose requiredClientCaps the originating client did not declare. The
Canvas plugin ships the first such tool, show_widget: agents pass SVG or an
HTML fragment plus a title; the plugin hosts it as a bounded, retention-scoped
Canvas document and returns the existing canvas preview handle, which web chat
renders as a sandboxed iframe fitted to the widget's reported content height.
Widget frames never get allow-same-origin (per-preview sandbox ceiling,
including the sidebar path) and the Canvas host serves widget documents with a
CSP sandbox header so direct navigation runs in an opaque origin. Verified
live end-to-end on a Testbox with gpt-5.5 (screenshots on the PR). CLI-backed
model backends do not carry client caps yet and stay fail-closed (#102577).
