The test previously asserted that a valid snapshot without gateway.mode
blocks startup. After defaulting gateway.mode to 'local' when unset,
the gateway should start successfully in this scenario — update the
test to verify the new expected behavior.

After v2026.3.24 introduced a gateway.mode guard, startup fails on
Windows (and other platforms) when the config file exists but doesn't
contain an explicit gateway.mode value. This happens after 'openclaw
onboard' writes a minimal config without gateway settings.
Default to 'local' when the mode is unset, restoring pre-3.24 behavior
where the gateway started without requiring an explicit mode.

Fix stale lock files from crashed gateway processes blocking new invocations on Windows/macOS. Detect PID recycling to avoid false positive lock conflicts, and add startup progress indicator.
Thanks @TonyDerek-dot
Add toolsAllow field to cron agent-turn payloads, enabling users to
restrict which tool schemas are sent to the model for a given cron job.
When --tools is set:
- Only listed tools are included in the provider request
- promptMode is forced to 'minimal' (strips skills catalog, reply tags,
heartbeat, messaging, docs, memory, model aliases, silent replies)
- Dramatically reduces input tokens for small local models (~16K to ~800)
CLI surface:
- openclaw cron add --tools exec,read,write
- openclaw cron edit <id> --tools exec
- openclaw cron edit <id> --clear-tools (remove allow-list)
Closes#58435

* fix(config): prevent AJV schema defaults from leaking into persisted config
Fixes#56772. Ensures that channel and plugin AJV validations respect the applyDefaults option, preventing runtime defaults from being written to openclaw.json during doctor/update flows.
* test: address review feedback on #56772 fix
- Split validation.channel-metadata.test.ts into applyDefaults true/false cases (fixes CI)
- Update io.write-config.test.ts regression test to use a mock plugin registry, ensuring it actually exercises the AJV default injection path
* fix(config): revert applyDefaults passthrough to prevent required-field regression
Codex-connector correctly identified that BlueBubbles channel schema marks
enrichGroupParticipantsFromContacts as both default:true and required.
Passing applyDefaults:false during write validation would cause required
checks to fail, breaking writeConfigFile entirely.
Reverted validation.ts to always use applyDefaults:true for channel/plugin
AJV validation. The protection against default leakage into persisted config
is fully handled by the persistCandidate change in io.ts (cfgToWrite uses
the pre-validation merge-patched value, not validated.config).
Updated validation.channel-metadata.test.ts to reflect this architecture.
* fix(config): apply legacy web-search normalization to persistCandidate
* fix: stabilize config default-leak landing tests (#56834) (thanks @openperf)
