            <description><![CDATA[<h2>OpenClaw 2026.4.9</h2>
<h3>Changes</h3>
<ul>
<li>Memory/dreaming: add a grounded REM backfill lane with historical <code>rem-harness --path</code>, diary commit/reset flows, cleaner durable-fact extraction, and live short-term promotion integration so old daily notes can replay into Dreams and durable memory without a second memory stack. Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Control UI/dreaming: add a structured diary view with timeline navigation, backfill/reset controls, traceable dreaming summaries, and a grounded Scene lane with promotion hints plus a safe clear-grounded action for staged backfill signals. (#63395) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>QA/lab: add character-vibes evaluation reports with model selection and parallel runs so live QA can compare candidate behavior faster.</li>
<li>Plugins/provider-auth: let provider manifests declare <code>providerAuthAliases</code> so provider variants can share env vars, auth profiles, config-backed auth, and API-key onboarding choices without core-specific wiring.</li>
<li>iOS: pin release versioning to an explicit CalVer in <code>apps/ios/version.json</code>, keep TestFlight iteration on the same short version until maintainers intentionally promote the next gateway version, and add the documented <code>pnpm ios:version:pin -- --from-gateway</code> workflow for release trains. (#63001) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Fixes</h3>
<ul>
<li>Browser/security: re-run blocked-destination safety checks after interaction-driven main-frame navigations from click, evaluate, hook-triggered click, and batched action flows, so browser interactions cannot bypass the SSRF quarantine when they land on forbidden URLs. (#63226) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Security/dotenv: block runtime-control env vars plus browser-control override and skip-server env vars from untrusted workspace <code>.env</code> files, and reject unsafe URL-style browser control override specifiers before lazy loading. (#62660, #62663) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Gateway/node exec events: mark remote node <code>exec.started</code>, <code>exec.finished</code>, and <code>exec.denied</code> summaries as untrusted system events and sanitize node-provided command/output/reason text before enqueueing them, so remote node output cannot inject trusted <code>System:</code> content into later turns. (#62659) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Plugins/onboarding auth choices: prevent untrusted workspace plugins from colliding with bundled provider auth-choice ids during non-interactive onboarding, so bundled provider setup keeps operator secrets out of untrusted workspace plugin handlers unless those plugins are explicitly trusted. (#62368) Thanks @pgondhi987.</li>
<li>Security/dependency audit: force <code>basic-ftp</code> to <code>5.2.1</code> for the CRLF command-injection fix and bump Hono plus <code>@hono/node-server</code> in production resolution paths.</li>
<li>Android/pairing: clear stale setup-code auth on new QR scans, bootstrap operator and node sessions from fresh pairing, prefer stored device tokens after bootstrap handoff, and pause pairing auto-retry while the app is backgrounded so scan-once Android pairing recovers reliably again. (#63199) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
<li>Matrix/gateway: wait for Matrix sync readiness before marking startup successful, keep Matrix background handler failures contained, and route fatal Matrix sync stops through channel-level restart handling instead of crashing the whole gateway. (#62779) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
<li>Slack/media: preserve bearer auth across same-origin <code>files.slack.com</code> redirects while still stripping it on cross-origin Slack CDN hops, so <code>url_private_download</code> image attachments load again. (#62960) Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
<li>Reply/doctor: use the active runtime snapshot for queued reply runs, resolve reply-run SecretRefs before preflight helpers touch config, surface gateway OAuth reauth failures to users, and make <code>openclaw doctor</code> call out exact reauth commands. (#62693, #63217) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Control UI: guard stale session-history reloads during fast session switches so the selected session and rendered transcript stay in sync. (#62975) Thanks @scoootscooob.</li>
<li>Gateway/chat: suppress exact and streamed <code>ANNOUNCE_SKIP</code> / <code>REPLY_SKIP</code> control replies across live chat updates and history sanitization so internal agent-to-agent control tokens no longer leak into user-facing gateway chat surfaces. (#51739) Thanks @Pinghuachiu.</li>
<li>Auto-reply/NO_REPLY: strip glued leading <code>NO_REPLY</code> tokens before reply normalization and ACP-visible streaming so silent sentinel text no longer leaks into user-visible replies while preserving substantive <code>NO_REPLY ...</code> text. Thanks @frankekn.</li>
<li>Sessions/routing: preserve established external routes on inter-session announce traffic so <code>sessions_send</code> follow-ups do not steal delivery from Telegram, Discord, or other external channels. (#58013) Thanks @duqaXxX.</li>
<li>Gateway/sessions: clear auto-fallback-pinned model overrides on <code>/reset</code> and <code>/new</code> while still preserving explicit user model selections, including legacy sessions created before override-source tracking existed. (#63155) Thanks @frankekn.</li>
<li>Slack/ACP: treat Slack ACP block replies as visible delivered output so OpenClaw stops re-sending the final fallback text after Slack already rendered the reply. (#62858) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
<li>Slack/partial streaming: key turn-local dedupe by dispatch kind and keep the final fallback reply path active when preview finalization fails so stale preview text cannot suppress the actual final answer. (#62859) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
<li>Matrix/doctor: migrate legacy <code>channels.matrix.dm.policy: "trusted"</code> configs back to compatible DM policies during <code>openclaw doctor --fix</code>, preserving explicit <code>allowFrom</code> boundaries as <code>allowlist</code> and defaulting empty legacy configs to <code>pairing</code>. (#62942) Thanks @lukeboyett.</li>
<li>npm packaging: mirror bundled channel runtime deps, stage Nostr runtime deps, derive required root mirrors from manifests and built chunks, and test packed release tarballs without repo <code>node_modules</code> so fresh installs fail fast on missing plugin deps instead of crashing at runtime. (#63065) Thanks @scoootscooob.</li>
<li>QA/live auth: fail fast when live QA scenarios hit classified auth or runtime failure replies, including raw scenario wait paths, and sanitize missing-key guidance so gateway auth problems surface as actionable errors instead of timeouts. (#63333) Thanks @shakkernerd.</li>
<li>Providers/OpenAI: default missing reasoning effort to <code>high</code> on OpenAI Responses, WebSocket, and compatible completions transports, while still honoring explicit per-run reasoning levels.</li>
<li>Providers/Ollama: allow Ollama models using the native <code>api: "ollama"</code> path to optionally display thinking output when <code>/think</code> is set to a non-off level. (#62712) Thanks @hoyyeva.</li>
<li>Codex CLI: pass OpenClaw's system prompt through Codex's <code>model_instructions_file</code> config override so fresh Codex CLI sessions receive the same prompt guidance as Claude CLI sessions.</li>
<li>Auth/profiles: persist explicit auth-profile upserts directly and skip external CLI sync for local writes so profile changes are saved without stale external credential state.</li>
<li>Agents/timeouts: make the LLM idle timeout inherit <code>agents.defaults.timeoutSeconds</code> when configured, disable the unconfigured idle watchdog for cron runs, and point idle-timeout errors at <code>agents.defaults.llm.idleTimeoutSeconds</code>. Thanks @drvoss.</li>
<li>Agents/failover: classify Z.ai vendor code <code>1311</code> as billing and <code>1113</code> as auth, including long wrapped <code>1311</code> payloads, so these errors stop falling through to generic failover handling. (#49552) Thanks @1bcMax.</li>
<li>QQBot/media-tags: support HTML entity-encoded angle brackets (<code>&lt;</code>/<code>&gt;</code>), URL slashes in attributes, and self-closing media tags so upstream <code><qqimg></code> payloads are correctly parsed and normalized. (#60493) Thanks @ylc0919.</li>
<li>Memory/dreaming: harden grounded backfill inputs, diary writes, status payloads, and diary action classification by preserving source-day labels, rejecting missing or symlinked targets cleanly, normalizing diary headings in gateway backfills, and tightening claim splitting plus diary source metadata. Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Memory/dreaming: accept embedded heartbeat trigger tokens so light and REM dreaming still run when runtime wrappers include extra heartbeat text.</li>
<li>Android/manual connect: allow blank port input only for TLS manual gateway endpoints so standard HTTPS Tailscale hosts default to <code>443</code> without silently changing cleartext manual connects. (#63134) Thanks @Tyler-RNG.</li>
<li>Windows/update: add heap headroom to Windows <code>pnpm build</code> steps during dev updates so update preflight builds stop failing on low default Node memory.</li>
<li>Plugin SDK: export the channel plugin base and web-search config contract through the public package so plugins can use them without private imports.</li>
<li>Plugins/contracts: keep test-only helpers out of production contract barrels, load shared contract harnesses through bundled test surfaces, and harden guardrails so indirect re-exports and canonical <code>*.test.ts</code> files stay blocked. (#63311) Thanks @altaywtf.</li>
<li>Control UI/models: preserve provider-qualified refs for OpenRouter catalog models whose ids already contain slashes so picker selections submit allowlist-compatible model refs instead of dropping the <code>openrouter/</code> prefix. (#63416) Thanks @sallyom.</li>
<li>Plugin SDK/command auth: split command status builders onto the lightweight <code>openclaw/plugin-sdk/command-status</code> subpath while preserving deprecated <code>command-auth</code> compatibility exports, so auth-only plugin imports no longer pull status/context warmup into CLI onboarding paths. (#63174) Thanks @hxy91819.</li>

            <description><![CDATA[<h2>OpenClaw 2026.4.8</h2>
<h3>Fixes</h3>
<ul>
<li>Telegram/setup: load setup and secret contracts through packaged top-level sidecars so installed npm builds no longer try to import missing <code>dist/extensions/telegram/src/*</code> files during gateway startup.</li>
<li>Bundled channels/setup: load shared secret contracts through packaged top-level sidecars across BlueBubbles, Feishu, Google Chat, IRC, Matrix, Mattermost, Microsoft Teams, Nextcloud Talk, Slack, and Zalo so installed npm builds no longer rely on missing <code>dist/extensions/*/src/*</code> files during gateway startup.</li>
<li>Bundled plugins: align packaged plugin compatibility metadata with the release version so bundled channels and providers load on OpenClaw 2026.4.8.</li>
<li>Agents/progress: keep <code>update_plan</code> available for OpenAI-family runs while returning compact success payloads and allowing <code>tools.experimental.planTool=false</code> to opt out.</li>
<li>Agents/exec: keep <code>/exec</code> current-default reporting aligned with real runtime behavior so <code>host=auto</code> sessions surface the correct host-aware fallback policy (<code>full/off</code> on gateway or node, <code>deny/off</code> on sandbox) instead of stale stricter defaults.</li>
<li>Slack: honor ambient HTTP(S) proxy settings for Socket Mode WebSocket connections, including NO_PROXY exclusions, so proxy-only deployments can connect without a monkey patch. (#62878) Thanks @mjamiv.</li>
<li>Slack/actions: pass the already resolved read token into <code>downloadFile</code> so SecretRef-backed bot tokens no longer fail after a raw config re-read. (#62097) Thanks @martingarramon.</li>
<li>Network/fetch guard: skip target DNS pinning when trusted env-proxy mode is active so proxy-only sandboxes can let the trusted proxy resolve outbound hosts. (#59007) Thanks @cluster2600.</li>

            <description><![CDATA[<h2>OpenClaw 2026.4.7</h2>
<h3>Changes</h3>
<ul>
<li>CLI/infer: add a first-class <code>openclaw infer ...</code> hub for provider-backed inference workflows across model, media, web, and embedding tasks. Thanks @Takhoffman.</li>
<li>Tools/media generation: auto-fallback across auth-backed image, music, and video providers by default, preserve intent during provider switches, remap size/aspect/resolution/duration hints to the closest supported option, and surface provider capabilities plus mode-aware video-to-video support.</li>
<li>Memory/wiki: restore the bundled <code>memory-wiki</code> stack with plugin, CLI, sync/query/apply tooling, memory-host integration, structured claim/evidence fields, compiled digest retrieval, claim-health linting, contradiction clustering, staleness dashboards, and freshness-weighted search. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
<li>Plugins/webhooks: add a bundled webhook ingress plugin so external automation can create and drive bound TaskFlows through per-route shared-secret endpoints. (#61892) Thanks @mbelinky.</li>
<li>Gateway/sessions: add persisted compaction checkpoints plus Sessions UI branch/restore actions so operators can inspect and recover pre-compaction session state. (#62146) Thanks @scoootscooob.</li>
<li>Compaction: add pluggable compaction provider registry so plugins can replace the built-in summarization pipeline. Configure via <code>agents.defaults.compaction.provider</code>; falls back to LLM summarization on provider failure. (#56224) Thanks @DhruvBhatia0.</li>
<li>Agents/system prompt: add <code>agents.defaults.systemPromptOverride</code> for controlled prompt experiments plus heartbeat prompt-section controls so heartbeat runtime behavior can stay enabled without injecting heartbeat instructions every turn.</li>
<li>Providers/Google: add Gemma 4 model support and keep Google fallback resolution on the requested provider path so native Google Gemma routes work again. (#61507) Thanks @eyjohn.</li>
<li>Providers/Google: preserve explicit thinking-off semantics for Gemma 4 while still enabling Gemma reasoning support in compatibility wrappers. (#62127) Thanks @romgenie.</li>
<li>Providers/Arcee AI: add a bundled Arcee AI provider plugin with Trinity catalog entries, OpenRouter support, and updated onboarding/auth guidance. (#62068) Thanks @arthurbr11.</li>
<li>Providers/Anthropic: restore Claude CLI as the preferred local Anthropic path in onboarding, model-auth guidance, doctor flows, and Docker Claude CLI live lanes again.</li>
<li>Providers/Ollama: detect vision capability from the <code>/api/show</code> response and set image input on models that support it so Ollama vision models accept image attachments. (#62193) Thanks @BruceMacD.</li>
<li>Memory/dreaming: ingest redacted session transcripts into the dreaming corpus with per-day session-corpus notes, cursor checkpointing, and promotion/doctor support. (#62227) Thanks @vignesh07.</li>
<li>Providers/inferrs: add string-content compatibility for stricter OpenAI-compatible chat backends, document <code>inferrs</code> setup with a full config example, and add troubleshooting guidance for local backends that pass direct probes but fail on full agent-runtime prompts.</li>
<li>Agents/context engine: expose prompt-cache runtime context to context engines and keep current-turn prompt-cache usage aligned with the active attempt instead of stale prior-turn assistant state. (#62179) Thanks @jalehman.</li>
<li>Plugin SDK/context engines: pass <code>availableTools</code> and <code>citationsMode</code> into <code>assemble()</code>, and expose memory-artifact and memory-prompt seams so companion plugins and non-legacy context engines can consume active memory state without reaching into internals. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
<li>ACP/ACPX plugin: bump the bundled <code>acpx</code> pin to <code>0.5.1</code> so plugin-local installs and strict version checks pick up the latest published runtime release. (#62148) Thanks @onutc.</li>
<li>Discord/events: allow <code>event-create</code> to accept a cover image URL or local file path, load and validate PNG/JPG/GIF event cover media, and pass the encoded image payload through Discord admin action/runtime paths. (#60883) Thanks @bittoby.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Fixes</h3>
<ul>
<li>CLI/infer: keep provider-backed infer behavior aligned with actual runtime execution by fixing explicit TTS override handling, profile-aware gateway TTS prefs resolution, per-request transcription <code>prompt</code>/<code>language</code> overrides, image output MIME/extension mismatches, configured web-search fallback behavior, and agent-vs-CLI web-search execution drift.</li>
<li>Plugins/media: when <code>plugins.allow</code> is set, capability fallback now merges bundled capability plugin ids into the allowlist (not only <code>plugins.entries</code>), so media understanding providers such as OpenAI-compatible STT load for voice transcription without requiring <code>openai</code> in <code>plugins.allow</code>. (#62205) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
<li>Agents/history and replies: buffer phaseless OpenAI WS text until a real assistant phase arrives, keep replay and SSE history sequence tracking aligned, hide commentary and leaked tool XML from user-visible history, and keep history-based follow-up replies on <code>final_answer</code> text only. (#61729, #61747, #61829, #61855, #61954) Thanks @100yenadmin and contributors.</li>
<li>Control UI: show <code>/tts</code> audio replies in webchat, detect mistaken <code>?token=</code> auth links with the correct <code>#token=</code> hint, and keep Copy, Canvas, and mobile exec-approval UI from covering chat content on narrow screens. (#54842, #61514, #61598) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
<li>iOS/gateway: replace string-matched connection error UI with structured gateway connection problems, preserve actionable pairing/auth failures over later generic disconnect noise, and surface reusable problem banners and details across onboarding, settings, and root status surfaces. (#62650) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
<li>TUI: route <code>/status</code> through the shared session-status command, keep commentary hidden in history, strip raw envelope metadata from async command notices, preserve fallback streaming before per-attempt failures finalize, and restore Kitty keyboard state on exit or fatal crashes. (#49130, #59985, #60043, #61463) Thanks @biefan and contributors.</li>
<li>iOS/Watch exec approvals: keep Apple Watch review and approval recovery working while the iPhone is locked or backgrounded, including reconnect recovery, pending approval persistence, notification cleanup, and APNs-backed watch refresh recovery. (#61757) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
<li>Agents/context overflow: combine oversized and aggregate tool-result recovery in one pass and restore a total-context overflow backstop so recoverable sessions retry instead of failing early. (#61651) Thanks @Takhoffman.</li>
<li>Auth/OpenAI Codex OAuth: reload fresh on-disk credentials inside the locked refresh path and retry once after <code>refresh_token_reused</code> rotates only the stored refresh token, so relogin/restart recovery stops getting stuck on stale cached auth state. Thanks @owen-ever.</li>
<li>Auth/OpenAI Codex OAuth: keep native <code>/model ...@profile</code> selections on the target session and honor explicit user-locked auth profiles even when per-agent auth order excludes them. (#62744) Thanks @jalehman.</li>
<li>Providers/Anthropic: preserve thinking blocks for Claude Opus 4.5+, Sonnet 4.5+, and newer Claude 4-family models so prompt-cache prefixes keep matching, and skip <code>service_tier</code> injection on OAuth-authenticated stream wrapper requests so Claude OAuth streaming stops failing with HTTP 401. (#60356, #61793)</li>
<li>Agents/Claude CLI: surface nested API error messages from structured CLI output so billing/auth/provider failures show the real provider error instead of an opaque CLI failure.</li>
<li>Agents/exec: preserve explicit <code>host=node</code> routing under elevated defaults when <code>tools.exec.host=auto</code>, fail loud on invalid elevated cross-host overrides, and keep <code>strictInlineEval</code> commands blocked after approval timeouts instead of falling through to automatic execution. (#61739) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
<li>Nodes/exec approvals: keep <code>host=node</code> POSIX transport shell wrappers (<code>/bin/sh -lc ...</code>) aligned with inner-command allowlist analysis so allowlisted scripts stop prompting unnecessarily, while Windows <code>cmd.exe</code> wrapper runs stay approval-gated. (#62401) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
<li>Nodes/exec approvals: keep Windows <code>cmd.exe /c</code> wrapper runs approval-gated even when <code>env</code> carriers, including env-assignment carriers, wrap the shell invocation. (#62439) Thanks @ngutman.</li>
<li>Gateway tool/exec config: block model-facing <code>gateway config.apply</code> and <code>config.patch</code> writes from changing exec approval paths such as <code>safeBins</code>, <code>safeBinProfiles</code>, <code>safeBinTrustedDirs</code>, and <code>strictInlineEval</code>, while still allowing unchanged structured values through. (#62001) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Host exec/env sanitization: block dangerous Java, Rust, Cargo, Git, Kubernetes, cloud credential, config-path, and Helm env overrides so host-run tools cannot be redirected to attacker-chosen code, config, credentials, or repository state. (#59119, #62002, #62291) Thanks @eleqtrizit and contributors.</li>
<li>Commands/allowlist: require owner authorization for <code>/allowlist add</code> and <code>/allowlist remove</code> before channel resolution, so non-owner but command-authorized senders can no longer persistently rewrite allowlist policy state. (#62383) Thanks @pgondhi987.</li>
<li>Feishu/docx uploads: honor <code>tools.fs.workspaceOnly</code> for local <code>upload_file</code> and <code>upload_image</code> paths by forwarding workspace-constrained <code>localRoots</code> into the media loader, so docx uploads can no longer read host-local files outside the workspace when workspace-only mode is active. (#62369) Thanks @pgondhi987.</li>
<li>Network/fetch guard: drop request bodies and body-describing headers on cross-origin <code>307</code> and <code>308</code> redirects by default, so attacker-controlled redirect hops cannot receive secret-bearing POST payloads from SSRF-guarded fetch flows unless a caller explicitly opts in. (#62357) Thanks @pgondhi987.</li>
<li>Browser/SSRF: treat main-frame <code>document</code> redirect hops as navigations even when Playwright does not flag them as <code>isNavigationRequest()</code>, so strict private-network blocking still stops forbidden redirect pivots before the browser reaches the internal target. (#62355) Thanks @pgondhi987.</li>
<li>Browser/node invoke: block persistent browser profile create, reset, and delete mutations through <code>browser.proxy</code> on both gateway-forwarded <code>node.invoke</code> and the node-host proxy path, even when no profile allowlist is configured. (#60489)</li>
<li>Gateway/node pairing: require a fresh pairing request when a previously paired node reconnects with additional declared commands, and keep the live session pinned to the earlier approved command set until the upgrade is approved. (#62658) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Gateway/auth: invalidate existing shared-token and password WebSocket sessions when the configured secret rotates, so stale authenticated sockets cannot stay attached after token or password changes. (#62350) Thanks @pgondhi987.</li>
<li>MS Teams/security: validate file-consent upload URLs against HTTPS, Microsoft/SharePoint host allowlists, and private-IP DNS checks before uploading attachments, blocking SSRF-style consent-upload abuse. (#23596)</li>
<li>Media/base64 decode guards: enforce byte limits before decoding missed base64-backed Teams, Signal, QQ Bot, and image-tool payloads so oversized inbound media and data URLs no longer bypass pre-decode size checks. (#62007) Thanks @eleqtrizit.</li>
<li>Runtime event trust: mark background <code>notifyOnExit</code> summaries, ACP parent-stream relays, and wake-hook payloads as untrusted system events so lower-trust runtime output no longer re-enters later turns as trusted <code>System:</code> text. (#62003)</li>
<li>Auto-reply/media: allow managed generated-media <code>MEDIA:</code> paths from normal reply text again while still blocking arbitrary host-local media and document paths, so generated media keep delivering without reopening host-path injection holes.</li>
<li>Gateway/status and containers: auto-bind to <code>0.0.0.0</code> inside Docker and Podman environments, and probe local TLS gateways over <code>wss://</code> with self-signed fingerprint forwarding so container startup and loopback TLS status checks work again. (#61818, #61935) Thanks @openperf and contributors.</li>
<li>Gateway/OpenAI-compatible HTTP: abort in-flight <code>/v1/chat/completions</code> and <code>/v1/responses</code> turns when clients disconnect so abandoned HTTP requests stop wasting agent runtime. (#54388) Thanks @Lellansin.</li>
<li>macOS/gateway version: strip trailing commit metadata from CLI version output before semver parsing so the Mac app recognizes installed gateway versions like <code>OpenClaw 2026.4.2 (d74a122)</code> again. (#61111) Thanks @oliviareid-svg.</li>
<li>Sessions/model selection: resolve the explicitly selected session model separately from runtime fallback resolution so session status and live model switching stay aligned with the chosen model.</li>
<li>Discord/ACP bindings: canonicalize DM conversation identity across inbound messages, component interactions, native commands, and current-conversation binding resolution so <code>--bind here</code> in Discord DMs keeps routing follow-up replies to the bound agent instead of falling back to the default agent.</li>
<li>Discord: recover forwarded referenced message text and attachments when snapshots are missing, use <code>ws://</code> again for gateway monitor sockets, stop forcing a hardcoded temperature for Codex-backed auto-thread titles, and harden voice receive recovery so rapid speaker restarts keep their next utterance. (#41536, #61670) Thanks @artwalker and contributors.</li>
<li>Slack/thread mentions: add <code>channels.slack.thread.requireExplicitMention</code> so Slack channels that already require mentions can also require explicit <code>@bot</code> mentions inside bot-participated threads. (#58276) Thanks @praktika-engineer.</li>
<li>Slack/threading: keep legacy thread stickiness for real replies when older callers omit <code>isThreadReply</code>, while still honoring <code>replyToMode</code> for Slack's auto-created top-level <code>thread_ts</code>. (#61835) Thanks @kaonash.</li>
<li>Slack/media: keep attachment downloads on the SSRF-guarded dispatcher path so Slack media fetching works on Node 22 without dropping pinned transport enforcement. (#62239) Thanks @openperf.</li>
<li>Matrix/onboarding: add an invite auto-join setup step with explicit off warnings and strict stable-target validation so new Matrix accounts stop silently ignoring invited rooms and fresh DM-style invites unless operators opt in. (#62168) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
<li>Matrix/formatting: preserve multi-paragraph and loose-list rendering in Element so numbered and bulleted Markdown keeps their content attached to the correct list item. (#60997) Thanks @gucasbrg.</li>
<li>Telegram/doctor: keep top-level access-control fallback in place during multi-account normalization while still promoting legacy default auth into <code>accounts.default</code>, so existing named bots keep inherited allowlists without dropping the legacy default bot. (#62263) Thanks @obviyus.</li>
<li>Plugins/loaders: centralize bundled <code>dist/**</code> Jiti native-load policy and keep channel, public-surface, facade, and config-metadata loader seams off native Jiti on Windows so onboarding and configure flows stop tripping <code>ERR_UNSUPPORTED_ESM_URL_SCHEME</code>. (#62286) Thanks @chen-zhang-cs-code.</li>
<li>Plugins/channels: keep bundled channel artifact and secret-contract loading stable under lazy loading, preserve plugin-schema defaults during install, and fix Windows <code>file://</code> plus native-Jiti plugin loader paths so onboarding, doctor, <code>openclaw secret</code>, and bundled plugin installs work again. (#61832, #61836, #61853, #61856) Thanks @Zeesejo and contributors.</li>
<li>Plugins/ClawHub: verify downloaded plugin archives against version metadata SHA-256, fail closed when archive integrity metadata is missing or malformed, and tighten fallback ZIP verification so plugin installs cannot proceed on mismatched or incomplete ClawHub package metadata. (#60517) Thanks @mappel-nv.</li>
<li>Plugins/provider hooks: stop recursive provider snapshot loads from overflowing the stack during plugin initialization, while still preserving cached nested provider-hook results. (#61922, #61938, #61946, #61951)</li>
<li>Docker/plugins: stop forcing bundled plugin discovery to <code>/app/extensions</code> in runtime images so packaged installs use compiled <code>dist/extensions</code> artifacts again and Node 24 containers do not boot through source-only plugin entry paths. Fixes #62044. (#62316) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
<li>Providers/Ollama: honor the selected provider's <code>baseUrl</code> during streaming so multi-Ollama setups stop routing every stream to the first configured Ollama endpoint. (#61678)</li>
<li>Providers/Ollama: stop warning that Ollama could not be reached when discovery only sees empty default local stubs, while still keeping real explicit Ollama overrides loud when the endpoint is unreachable.</li>
<li>Providers/xAI: recognize <code>api.grok.x.ai</code> as an xAI-native endpoint again and keep legacy <code>x_search</code> auth resolution working so older xAI web-search configs continue to load. (#61377) Thanks @jjjojoj.</li>
<li>Providers/Mistral: send <code>reasoning_effort</code> for <code>mistral/mistral-small-latest</code> (Mistral Small 4) with thinking-level mapping, and mark the catalog entry as reasoning-capable so adjustable reasoning matches Mistral’s Chat Completions API. (#62162) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
<li>OpenAI TTS/Groq: send <code>wav</code> to Groq-compatible speech endpoints, honor explicit <code>responseFormat</code> overrides on OpenAI-compatible paths, and only mark voice-note output as voice-compatible when the actual format is <code>opus</code>. (#62233) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
<li>Tools/web_fetch and web_search: fix <code>TypeError: fetch failed</code> caused by undici 8.0 enabling HTTP/2 by default; pinned SSRF-guard dispatchers now explicitly set <code>allowH2: false</code> to restore HTTP/1.1 behavior and keep the custom DNS-pinning lookup compatible. (#61738, #61777) Thanks @zozo123.</li>
<li>Tools/web search/Exa: show Exa Search in onboarding and configure provider pickers again by marking the bundled Exa provider as setup-visible. Thanks @vincentkoc.</li>
<li>Memory/vector recall: surface explicit warnings when <code>sqlite-vec</code> is unavailable or vector writes are degraded, and strip managed Light Sleep and REM blocks before daily-note ingestion so memory indexing and dreaming stop reporting false-success or re-ingesting staged output. (#61720) Thanks @MonkeyLeeT.</li>
<li>Memory/dreaming: make Dreams config reads and writes respect the selected memory slot plugin instead of always targeting <code>memory-core</code>. (#62275) Thanks @SnowSky1.</li>
<li>QQ Bot/media: route gateway-side attachment and fallback downloads through guarded QQ/Tencent HTTPS fetches so QQ media handling no longer follows arbitrary remote hosts.</li>
<li>Browser/remote CDP: retry the DevTools websocket once after remote browser restarts so healthy remote browser profiles do not fail availability checks during CDP warm-up. (#57397) Thanks @ThanhNguyxn07.</li>
<li>UI/light mode: target both root and nested WebKit scrollbar thumbs in the light theme so page-level and container scrollbars stay visible on light backgrounds. (#61753) Thanks @chziyue.</li>
<li>Agents/subagents: honor <code>sessions_spawn(lightContext: true)</code> for spawned subagent runs by preserving lightweight bootstrap context through the gateway and embedded runner instead of silently falling back to full workspace bootstrap injection. (#62264) Thanks @theSamPadilla.</li>
<li>Cron: load <code>jobId</code> into <code>id</code> when the on-disk store omits <code>id</code>, matching doctor migration and fixing <code>unknown cron job id</code> for hand-edited <code>jobs.json</code>. (#62246) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
<li>Agents/model fallback: classify minimal HTTP 404 API errors (for example <code>404 status code (no body)</code>) as <code>model_not_found</code> so assistant failures throw into the fallback chain instead of stopping at the first fallback candidate. (#62119) Thanks @neeravmakwana.</li>
<li>BlueBubbles/network: respect explicit private-network opt-out for loopback and private <code>serverUrl</code> values across account resolution, status probes, monitor startup, and attachment downloads, while keeping public-host attachment hostname pinning intact. (#59373) Thanks @jpreagan.</li>
<li>Agents/heartbeat: keep heartbeat runs pinned to the main session so active subagent transcripts are not overwritten by heartbeat status messages. (#61803) Thanks @100yenadmin.</li>
<li>Agents/heartbeat: respect disabled heartbeat prompt guidance so operators can suppress heartbeat prompt instructions without disabling heartbeat runtime behavior.</li>
<li>Agents/compaction: stop compaction-wait aborts from re-entering prompt failover and replaying completed tool turns. (#62600) Thanks @i-dentifier.</li>
<li>Approvals/runtime: move native approval lifecycle assembly into shared core bootstrap/runtime seams driven by channel capabilities and runtime contexts, and remove the legacy bundled approval fallback wiring. (#62135) Thanks @gumadeiras.</li>
<li>Security/fetch-guard: stop rejecting operator-configured proxy hostnames against the target-scoped hostname allowlist in SSRF-guarded fetches, restoring proxy-based media downloads for Telegram and other channels. (#62312) Thanks @ademczuk.</li>
<li>Logging: make <code>logging.level</code> and <code>logging.consoleLevel</code> honor the documented severity threshold ordering again, and keep child loggers inheriting the parent <code>minLevel</code>. (#44646) Thanks @zhumengzhu.</li>
<li>Agents/sessions_send: pass <code>threadId</code> through announce delivery so cross-session notifications land in the correct Telegram forum topic instead of the group's general thread. (#62758) Thanks @jalehman.</li>
<li>Daemon/systemd: keep sudo systemctl calls scoped to the invoking user when machine-scoped systemctl fails, while still avoiding machine fallback for permission-denied user bus errors. (#62337) Thanks @Aftabbs.</li>
<li>Docs/i18n: relocalize final localized-page links after translation and remove the zh-CN homepage redirect override so localized Mintlify pages resolve to the correct language roots again. (#61796) Thanks @hxy91819.</li>
<li>Agents/exec: keep timed-out shell-backgrounded commands on the failed path and point long-running jobs to exec background/yield sessions so process polling is only suggested for registered sessions.</li>
