* fix: preserve ${VAR} env var references when writing config back to disk
Fixes#11466
When config is loaded, ${VAR} references are resolved to their plaintext
values. Previously, writeConfigFile would serialize the resolved values,
silently replacing "${ANTHROPIC_API_KEY}" with "sk-ant-api03-..." in the
config file.
Now writeConfigFile reads the current file pre-substitution, and for each
value that matches what a ${VAR} reference would resolve to, restores the
original reference. Values the caller intentionally changed are kept as-is.
This fixes all 50+ writeConfigFile call sites (doctor, configure wizard,
gateway config.set/apply/patch, plugins, hooks, etc.) without requiring
any caller changes.
New files:
- src/config/env-preserve.ts — restoreEnvVarRefs() utility
- src/config/env-preserve.test.ts — 11 unit tests
* fix: remove global config env snapshot race
* docs(changelog): note config env snapshot race fix

* fix: defer gateway restart until all replies are sent
Fixes a race condition where gateway config changes (e.g., enabling
plugins via iMessage) trigger an immediate SIGUSR1 restart, killing the
iMessage RPC connection before replies are delivered.
Both restart paths (config watcher and RPC-triggered) now defer until
all queued operations, pending replies, and embedded agent runs complete
(polling every 500ms, 30s timeout). A shared emitGatewayRestart() guard
prevents double SIGUSR1 when both paths fire simultaneously.
Key changes:
- Dispatcher registry tracks active reply dispatchers globally
- markComplete() called in finally block for guaranteed cleanup
- Pre-restart deferral hook registered at gateway startup
- Centralized extractDeliveryInfo() for session key parsing
- Post-restart sentinel messages delivered directly (not via agent)
- config-patch distinguished from config-apply in sentinel kind

* fix(gateway): normalize session key casing to prevent ghost sessions on Linux
On case-sensitive filesystems (Linux), mixed-case session keys like
agent:ops:MySession and agent:ops:mysession resolve to different store
entries, creating ghost duplicates that never converge.
Core changes in session-utils.ts:
- resolveSessionStoreKey: lowercase all session key components
- canonicalizeSpawnedByForAgent: accept cfg, resolve main-alias references
via canonicalizeMainSessionAlias after lowercasing
- loadSessionEntry: return legacyKey only when it differs from canonicalKey
- resolveGatewaySessionStoreTarget: scan store for case-insensitive matches;
add optional scanLegacyKeys param to skip disk reads for read-only callers
- Export findStoreKeysIgnoreCase for use by write-path consumers
- Compare global/unknown sentinels case-insensitively in all canonicalization
functions
sessions-resolve.ts:
- Make resolveSessionKeyFromResolveParams async for inline migration
- Check canonical key first (fast path), then fall back to legacy scan
- Delete ALL legacy case-variant keys in a single updateSessionStore pass
Fixes#12603
* fix(gateway): propagate canonical keys and clean up all case variants on write paths
- agent.ts: use canonicalizeSpawnedByForAgent (with cfg) instead of raw
toLowerCase; use findStoreKeysIgnoreCase to delete all legacy variants
on store write; pass canonicalKey to addChatRun, registerAgentRunContext,
resolveSendPolicy, and agentCommand
- sessions.ts: replace single-key migration with full case-variant cleanup
via findStoreKeysIgnoreCase in patch/reset/delete/compact handlers; add
case-insensitive fallback in preview (store already loaded); make
sessions.resolve handler async; pass scanLegacyKeys: false in preview
- server-node-events.ts: use findStoreKeysIgnoreCase to clean all legacy
variants on voice.transcript and agent.request write paths; pass
canonicalKey to addChatRun and agentCommand
* test(gateway): add session key case-normalization tests
Cover the case-insensitive session key canonicalization logic:
- resolveSessionStoreKey normalizes mixed-case bare and prefixed keys
- resolveSessionStoreKey resolves mixed-case main aliases (MAIN, Main)
- resolveGatewaySessionStoreTarget includes legacy mixed-case store keys
- resolveGatewaySessionStoreTarget collects all case-variant duplicates
- resolveGatewaySessionStoreTarget finds legacy main alias keys with
customized mainKey configuration
All 5 tests fail before the production changes, pass after.

* feat(gateway): add register and awaitDecision methods to ExecApprovalManager
Separates registration (synchronous) from waiting (async) to allow callers
to confirm registration before the decision is made. Adds grace period for
resolved entries to prevent race conditions.
* feat(gateway): add two-phase response and waitDecision handler for exec approvals
Send immediate 'accepted' response after registration so callers can confirm
the approval ID is valid. Add exec.approval.waitDecision endpoint to wait for
decision on already-registered approvals.
* fix(exec): await approval registration before returning approval-pending
Ensures the approval ID is registered in the gateway before the tool returns.
Uses exec.approval.request with expectFinal:false for registration, then
fire-and-forget exec.approval.waitDecision for the decision phase.
Fixes#2402
* test(gateway): update exec-approval test for two-phase response
Add assertion for immediate 'accepted' response before final decision.
* test(exec): update approval-id test mocks for new two-phase flow
Mock both exec.approval.request (registration) and exec.approval.waitDecision
(decision) calls to match the new internal implementation.
* fix(lint): add cause to errors, use generics instead of type assertions
* fix(exec-approval): guard register() against duplicate IDs
* fix: remove unused timeoutMs param, guard register() against duplicates
* fix(exec-approval): throw on duplicate ID, capture entry in closure
* fix: return error on timeout, remove stale test mock branch
* fix: wrap register() in try/catch, make timeout handling consistent
* fix: update snapshot on timeout, make two-phase response opt-in
* fix: extend grace period to 15s, return 'expired' status
* fix: prevent double-resolve after timeout
* fix: make register() idempotent, capture snapshot before await
* fix(gateway): complete two-phase exec approval wiring
* fix: finalize exec approval race fix (openclaw#3357) thanks @ramin-shirali
* fix(protocol): regenerate exec approval request models (openclaw#3357) thanks @ramin-shirali
* fix(test): remove unused callCount in discord threading test

Thread: unknown
When: 2026-02-08 20:08 CST
Repo: https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw.git
Branch: codex/wip/2026-02-09/compact-post-compaction-parentid-fix
Problem
- Post-compaction turns sometimes lost the compaction summary + kept suffix in the *next* provider request.
- Root cause was session graph corruption: gateway appended "stopReason: injected" transcript lines via raw JSONL writes without `parentId`.
- Pi's `SessionManager.buildSessionContext()` walks the `parentId` chain from the current leaf; missing `parentId` can sever the active branch and hide the compaction entry.
Fix
- Use `SessionManager.appendMessage(...)` for injected assistant transcript writes so `parentId` is set to the current leaf.
- Route `chat.inject` through the same helper to avoid duplicating the broken raw JSONL append logic.
Why This Matters
- The compaction algorithm may be correct, but if the leaf chain is broken right after compaction, the provider payload cannot include the summary/suffix "shape" Pi expects.
Testing
- pnpm test src/agents/pi-embedded-helpers.post-compaction-shape.test.ts src/agents/pi-embedded-runner/run.overflow-compaction.post-context.test.ts
- pnpm build
Notes
- This is provider-shape agnostic: it fixes transcript structure so Anthropic/Gemini/etc all see the same post-compaction context.
Resume
- If post-compaction looks wrong again, inspect the session transcript for entries missing `parentId` immediately after `type: compaction`.
* Gateway: guardrail test for transcript parentId (chat.inject)
* Gateway: guardrail against raw transcript appends (chat.ts)
* Gateway: add local AGENTS.md note to preserve Pi transcript parentId chain
* Changelog: note gateway post-compaction amnesia fix
* Gateway: store injected transcript messages with valid stopReason
* Gateway: use valid stopReason in injected fallback
* initial commit
* feat: implement deriveSessionTotalTokens function and update usage tests
* Added deriveSessionTotalTokens function to calculate total tokens based on usage and context tokens.
* Updated usage tests to include cases for derived session total tokens.
* Refactored session usage calculations in multiple files to utilize the new function for improved accuracy.
* fix: restore overflow truncation fallback + changelog/test hardening (#11551) (thanks @tyler6204)
* refactor: update cron job wake mode and run mode handling
- Changed default wake mode from 'next-heartbeat' to 'now' in CronJobEditor and related CLI commands.
- Updated cron-tool tests to reflect changes in run mode, introducing 'due' and 'force' options.
- Enhanced cron-tool logic to handle new run modes and ensure compatibility with existing job structures.
- Added new tests for delivery plan consistency and job execution behavior under various conditions.
- Improved normalization functions to handle wake mode and session target casing.
This refactor aims to streamline cron job configurations and enhance the overall user experience with clearer defaults and improved functionality.
* test: enhance cron job functionality and UI
- Added tests to ensure the isolated agent correctly announces the final payload text when delivering messages via Telegram.
- Implemented a new function to pick the last deliverable payload from a list of delivery payloads.
- Enhanced the cron service to maintain legacy "every" jobs while minute cron jobs recompute schedules.
- Updated the cron store migration tests to verify the addition of anchorMs to legacy every schedules.
- Improved the UI for displaying cron job details, including job state and delivery information, with new styles and layout adjustments.
These changes aim to improve the reliability and user experience of the cron job system.
* test: enhance sessions thinking level handling
- Added tests to verify that the correct thinking levels are applied during session spawning.
- Updated the sessions-spawn-tool to include a new parameter for overriding thinking levels.
- Enhanced the UI to support additional thinking levels, including "xhigh" and "full", and improved the handling of current options in dropdowns.
These changes aim to improve the flexibility and accuracy of thinking level configurations in session management.
* feat: enhance session management and cron job functionality
- Introduced passthrough arguments in the test-parallel script to allow for flexible command-line options.
- Updated session handling to hide cron run alias session keys from the sessions list, improving clarity.
- Enhanced the cron service to accurately record job start times and durations, ensuring better tracking of job execution.
- Added tests to verify the correct behavior of the cron service under various conditions, including zero-delay timers.
These changes aim to improve the usability and reliability of session and cron job management.
* feat: implement job running state checks in cron service
- Added functionality to prevent manual job runs if a job is already in progress, enhancing job management.
- Updated the `isJobDue` function to include checks for running jobs, ensuring accurate scheduling.
- Enhanced the `run` function to return a specific reason when a job is already running.
- Introduced a new test case to verify the behavior of forced manual runs during active job execution.
These changes aim to improve the reliability and clarity of cron job execution and management.
* feat: add session ID and key to CronRunLogEntry model
- Introduced `sessionid` and `sessionkey` properties to the `CronRunLogEntry` struct for enhanced tracking of session-related information.
- Updated the initializer and Codable conformance to accommodate the new properties, ensuring proper serialization and deserialization.
These changes aim to improve the granularity of logging and session management within the cron job system.
* fix: improve session display name resolution
- Updated the `resolveSessionDisplayName` function to ensure that both label and displayName are trimmed and default to an empty string if not present.
- Enhanced the logic to prevent returning the key if it matches the label or displayName, improving clarity in session naming.
These changes aim to enhance the accuracy and usability of session display names in the UI.
* perf: skip cron store persist when idle timer tick produces no changes
recomputeNextRuns now returns a boolean indicating whether any job
state was mutated. The idle path in onTimer only persists when the
return value is true, eliminating unnecessary file writes every 60s
for far-future or idle schedules.
* fix: prep for merge - explicit delivery mode migration, docs + changelog (#10776) (thanks @tyler6204)
* security: add skill/plugin code safety scanner module
* security: integrate skill scanner into security audit
* security: add pre-install code safety scan for plugins
* style: fix curly brace lint errors in skill-scanner.ts
* docs: add changelog entry for skill code safety scanner
* security: redact credentials from config.get gateway responses
The config.get gateway method returned the full config snapshot
including channel credentials (Discord tokens, Slack botToken/appToken,
Telegram botToken, Feishu appSecret, etc.), model provider API keys,
and gateway auth tokens in plaintext.
Any WebSocket client—including the unauthenticated Control UI when
dangerouslyDisableDeviceAuth is set—could read every secret.
This adds redactConfigSnapshot() which:
- Deep-walks the config object and masks any field whose key matches
token, password, secret, or apiKey patterns
- Uses the existing redactSensitiveText() to scrub the raw JSON5 source
- Preserves the hash for change detection
- Includes 15 test cases covering all channel types
* security: make gateway config writes return redacted values
* test: disable control UI by default in gateway server tests
* fix: redact credentials in gateway config APIs (#9858) (thanks @abdelsfane)
