The health monitor treated an account sleeping between its own auto-restart
attempts as "stopped" and force-restarted it. That start booted nothing (the
channel supervisor still owned the account task), but the accompanying
resetRestartAttempts wiped the retry ladder, so a crash-looping channel
restarted at attempt 1 every cooldown and could never reach
"giving up after 10 restart attempts".
ChannelManager now reports isAutoRestartScheduled for the supervisor's backoff
sleep and replacement start, and the health monitor defers to it instead of
restarting, resetting attempts, or spending its cooldown/hourly budget. The
monitor stays the last restart owner once the supervisor gives up.
Live evidence (clawmac gateway logs, 2026-07-27/28): 198 "restarting
(reason: stopped)" lines, zero give-ups, attempt ladders truncated at 8/10.

* fix(config): compaction.enabled is rejected as invalid config
Setting agents.defaults.compaction.enabled in openclaw.json made the
whole config fail to load with "agents.defaults.compaction: Invalid
input", so auto-compaction could not be turned off.
The runtime already reads the field (SettingsManager.getCompactionEnabled
returns settings.compaction?.enabled ?? true, and setCompactionEnabled
writes it), and the documented config example in
docs/reference/session-management-compaction.md already shows
"enabled: true". Only the zod schema was missing the key, and the
compaction object is .strict(), so the unknown key rejected the config.
Adds enabled to AgentDefaultsSchema and to AgentCompactionConfig.
Closes#110065

* build(deps): remove npm shrinkwrap; mirror pnpm lock into transient package locks
npm 12 removed shrinkwrap (command + tarball/root loading). Delete all 82
committed npm-shrinkwrap.json files and stop publishing lockfiles; keep
pnpm-lock.yaml as the single reviewed dependency boundary. The generator
becomes scripts/generate-npm-package-lock.mjs and feeds plugin bundling via
a transient package-lock.json + npm ci (works on npm 11 and 12). Tarball
validation treats the published 2026.7.2 beta train as a shrinkwrap
transition; self-update npm detection now uses install topology instead of
the shipped shrinkwrap.

The update_plan checklist tool has been default-on with no model gating for a
while, so keeping it under tools.experimental misrepresented it and kept a
container key alive for a single boolean. Rename it to a plain boolean
tools.updatePlan (camel-cased tool id, matching tools.agentToAgent and
tools.toolSearch), keeping the !== false default-on semantics.
The strict schema rejects the retired key, so openclaw doctor --fix now lifts
tools.experimental.planTool to tools.updatePlan and deletes the emptied
container. Registration also drops five parameters that were never read
(agentSessionKey, agentId, modelProvider, modelId, pluginToolAllowlist).
Docs: config-tools.md dropped a stale claim that the tool defaults off behind a
strict-agentic GPT-5 rule that no longer exists, experimental-features.md no
longer lists the tool and now cites the real Codex app-server floor (0.143.0,
per MIN_CODEX_APP_SERVER_VERSION).
Config baseline core count drops 2307 -> 2306.
* docs: correct retired cron/audit config keys, cron failure-alert default, memory recall default, and tool-search telemetry claims
- configuration-reference: cron block documented cron.webhook and cron.failureDestination, both retired by the config-surface reduction tranches (58452de711, edecdbd05e); the cron schema is strict so a copied snippet is rejected. Document only the live keys and note the doctor --fix migrations.
- configuration-reference: root-level audit block is retired; canonical path is logging.audit (src/config/zod-schema.root-shape.ts).
- configuration-reference: cron.failureAlert.after default is 2, not 3 (src/cron/service/failure-alerts.ts).
- memory-config: rememberAcrossConversations defaults on for personal installs (packages/memory-host-sdk/src/host/config-utils.ts), matching the canonical table earlier in the page.
- tool-search: telemetry records catalogSize, per-source counts, and search/describe/call counts, and only on tool_search_code results. No byte accounting exists in the runtime.
* docs: retire remaining references to removed cron, audit, and logging config keys
Sweep follow-up to the previous commit, covering the same bug class in the pages that still contradicted it.
- cron-jobs/cli-cron: global cron.failureDestination is retired; the destination fields now live on cron.failureAlert (src/config/zod-schema.root-shape.ts, merged by legacy-config-migrations.runtime.retired.ts:379). Per-job delivery.failureDestination bullets left intact.
- gateway/audit, cli/audit, gateway/protocol: root-level audit.* is retired; canonical path is logging.audit.*.
- logging: logging.redactSensitive is retired (dead-config-keys.test.ts:198; removed by legacy-config-migrations.runtime.tier-eval.ts:12). resolveConfigRedaction hardcodes DEFAULT_REDACT_MODE = tools, so redaction is unconditional. Also documented that redactPatterns replaces the defaults on the log path (redact.ts:419) while tool payloads always merge them.
- logging: consoleStyle accepts only pretty|json (zod-schema.root-shape.ts:106); compact remains the automatic non-TTY rendering style (logging/console.ts:40) but is no longer settable, and doctor maps a stored one to pretty.
- security: security --fix no longer touches redaction and the logging.redact_off audit check is retired (src/security/audit-loopback-logging.test.ts asserts it never fires).
* chore(docs): regenerate docs map after retired-key cleanup
* refactor(gateway): remove dead sessions.observer.ask rpc

The runtime retirement already shipped: busy deferral is automatic,
reasoning payloads stay internal, the HEARTBEAT_OK ack budget is fixed at
300 chars, the Heartbeats prompt section follows cadence, and tool-error
warnings are always on. Docs still advertised skipWhenBusy, ackMaxChars,
includeReasoning, includeSystemPromptSection, and suppressToolErrorWarnings
as live options; this aligns seven pages with the fixed policies and the
strict heartbeat field list, locks the claw-profile skipWhenBusy rejection
diagnostic with a dedicated test, renames includeReasoning-era test/comments,
and canonicalizes claw add-plan workspace path assertions (macOS realpath).
* docs: sync heartbeat, memory, commitments, and system-prompt docs with current behavior
The heartbeat doc described a removed broad default prompt; the memory doc
claimed automatic distillation that does not run on a default install; the
commitments docs advertised a snoozed status nothing currently writes; the
system-prompt doc omitted the Promised Work and Proactive Sub-Agent
Orchestration sections.

* feat(sdk): always persist media facts and ship facts-first replacements for legacy Media* surfaces
PR 1 of the media legacy retirement program (audit-frozen, 4 PRs).
- Every media-bearing user turn now persists normalized __openclaw.media
facts unconditionally while continuing to emit the legacy top-level
Media* projection byte-identically (dual-write bridge; the conditional
shouldPersistStructuredMediaEntries gate now always includes media).
- New replacement APIs, shipped before any removal: typed hook media
facts (media[], originalMedia[], mediaStagingPending) on message
events; {{AttachmentPath}}/{{AttachmentUrl}}/{{AttachmentContentType}}/
{{AttachmentDir}}/{{AttachmentIndex}} template variables; focused
openclaw/plugin-sdk/media-local-roots subpath split out of the
deprecated agent-media-payload facade.
- Every legacy surface carries @deprecated naming its replacement, under
one named compatibility record media-legacy-projection with the
operator-approved removeAfter 2026-10-01 (two release trains; deletion
additionally gates on a clean published-plugin artifact sweep).
- Generic transcript append invariant documented; SDK migration, hooks,
and configuration docs updated to the facts-first path.
Writer golden matrix proves legacy bytes and model prompt bytes are
unchanged while nested facts become unconditional. 2,189 broad media
tests green; SDK api-baseline regenerated on fresh-env Testbox.

The database scratch migration (3e2b3ea4) left two named upgrade bridges:
the revision-0 read-only HEARTBEAT.md fallback in the heartbeat runner and
the doctor heartbeat-template repair contribution. This deletes both; the
doctor scratch migration remains the sole upgrade path.
Merge gate: hold until the next stable release containing 3e2b3ea4 has
shipped and completed its upgrade window.
Each legacy heartbeat tasks: entry becomes an editable system-created cron
job (declaration key heartbeat-task:<agentId>:<hash>, per-occurrence
identity for duplicate names) that fires a guarded heartbeat wake carrying
the task prompt plus current monitor scratch context. Task cadence is now
independent of the base heartbeat interval; active-hours, busy-retry,
min-spacing, and flood guards are preserved, deferred payload-carrying
wakes are retained and retried after the spacing floor, and colliding
task/event wakes cannot starve each other.
openclaw doctor --fix migrates existing blocks: async parse/plan, then one
synchronous SQLite transaction that rereads the pinned scratch revision,
upserts job rows, and strips the tasks: block atomically — concurrent
doctors serialize on the database and a losing run aborts untouched.
Orphan fields, invalid intervals, and incomplete entries block migration
of their block with a clear finding instead of silent text loss. The
runtime tasks: parser is deleted; leftover text is ordinary scratch prose.
Nine Codex gpt-5.6-sol xhigh autoreview cycles; final verdict clean.
