Live-testing #126377 in a real explicit fleet surfaced an inaccuracy that PR
introduced. It dropped 'Other agent-scoped methods do not use this setting as a
general default', which is still true: only models.list, models.authStatus,
skills.status, and doctor.memory.status opt in, while the generic Gateway
resolver in agent-id-shared.ts deliberately does not.
Verified against a live gateway and CLI on a three-agent explicit fleet with
systemAgent.agentId set: 'openclaw models list', 'openclaw sessions', stored
session lookup, and TUI startup all still require an explicit agent. Name those
surfaces so operators know where the owner does and does not apply.
* fix(outbound): resolve ambient delivery owner through the system-agent chain
Agent-less outbound channel bootstrap resolved its owner via the deprecated
throwing resolver, so multi-agent explicit-ownership configs with only
agents.defaults.systemAgent.agentId set threw AgentSelectionRequiredError from
inside gateway delivery recovery, aborting the whole drain ("Delivery recovery
failed") for every queued entry.
Bootstrap now follows the same ambient owner chain heartbeats and cron use
(legacy default, then systemAgent, then sole agent), consolidated into one
canonical tryResolveAmbientOwnerAgentId in agent-scope-config; the duplicated
chain in cron/agent-id.ts is deleted and heartbeat resolution reuses the
helper. Truly ownerless fleets no longer throw either: bootstrap proceeds with
global-scope plugin discovery only, never selecting an agent workspace, so
per-entry delivery outcomes stay recorded instead of one entry starving the
recovery loop.
Regression tests fail pre-fix: agent-less bootstrap routes through the
configured system-agent owner, and ownerless fleets bootstrap without
throwing.
* refactor(agents): route ambient owner resolution through one canonical chain
The idiom `tryResolveLegacyCompatibilityAgentId(cfg) ?? resolveDefaultAgentId(cfg)`
was copied across nine ambient surfaces. It reads like a fallback but is not: when
the first call returns undefined, resolveDefaultAgentId reduces to resolveSoleAgentId
and throws, so the second leg only ever throws — and neither leg consults
agents.defaults.systemAgent.agentId. Every one of those surfaces raised
AgentSelectionRequiredError in explicit fleets that own ambient work through a
system agent.
Promote the chain to one owner in agent-scope-config: tryResolveAmbientOwnerAgentId
(undefined when ownerless) and resolveAmbientOwnerAgentId (throws with the caller's
existing selection context). The throwing variant is a drop-in for every former
composite: identical message when a fleet has no owner, but the system-agent leg
now resolves.
Converted: resolveDefaultAgentDir (the shared producer behind auth, model catalog,
doctor, wizard, and Plugin SDK helpers), config identity-avatar validation, prepared
model catalog and registry, session reset, Talk target, main-session routing and its
routing-contract fingerprint, session store targets, hooks CLI, plugin LLM
completion, and first-run onboarding.
resolveDefaultAgentId keeps backing explicit-selection surfaces where 'pass --agent'
is the right answer; its deprecation note now sends ambient callers to the new
helper.
* fix(sessions,hooks): keep agent-narrowing surfaces on explicit selection
CI caught the over-reach: session-store listing and hooks status reporting are
deliberately explicit-selection surfaces, not ambient system work. Both narrow
output to one agent, so adopting agents.defaults.systemAgent.agentId would hide
the other agents' sessions/hooks instead of failing with the escape hatches the
operator needs. sessions.default-agent-store.test.ts pins that contract by
configuring a system agent and still expecting the --agent/--all-agents error.
Restore the prior behavior at both sites, spelled honestly as
tryResolveLegacyCompatibilityAgentId ?? resolveSoleAgentId — provably identical
to the old composite, since the composite's second leg could only ever throw —
with a comment recording why these two resist the ambient chain.
* test: declare the ambient owner binding in agent-scope mock factories
Explicit vi.mock factories enumerate exports, so production calling
resolveAmbientOwnerAgentId broke prepared-model-catalog, prepared-model-registry,
and channel-resolution with 'No "resolveAmbientOwnerAgentId" export is defined on
the ... mock'. Declare it in the four factories; channel-resolution now drives the
non-throwing variant the bootstrap actually calls.
Also restore session-store targets and hooks status to their exact previous code.
Both stay out of the ambient chain by design, so the smallest correct diff at an
out-of-scope site is none: they now differ from main only by the comment recording
why they resist it.
* fix(models): resolve the model-config workspace through the ambient owner
ClawSweeper P1: prepareModelsConfigContext resolved agentDir through
resolveDefaultAgentDir (ambient chain) but its workspace through
resolveDefaultAgentId (deprecated throwing chain), so explicit fleets owned by a
system agent still failed model preparation on the workspace lookup — a one-sided
fix inside a single function.
Both halves now resolve the same ambient owner.
* docs(agents): describe the widened ambient system-agent ownership
config-agents.md claimed 'Other agent-scoped methods do not use this setting as
a general default', which this branch makes false: systemAgent.agentId is now
the ambient owner for agent dir/workspace resolution, outbound bootstrap and
delivery recovery, main-session routing, Talk, and onboarding.
Record the widened set, the two surfaces that deliberately still demand explicit
selection (sessions, hooks), and delivery recovery's per-entry degradation.
* fix(sessions): zero highWaterBytes no longer clears all session history
resolveHighWaterBytes passed an explicit non-positive highWaterBytes through
verbatim. The resolved value is the disk-budget cleanup loop's stop condition,
so a zero target made enforce mode evict every unprotected session and prune
its extracted archives instead of trimming to the documented 80% default.
Route the non-positive case to the function's existing unusable-value branch
(computeDefault). Not null: that disables the budget and permits unbounded
growth, which is right for a cap but wrong for a target.
Sibling of #119422, which fixed the same harm for maxDiskBytes and guarded
only resolveMaxDiskBytes.
* test(infra): isolate worktree migration discovery
Keep worktree migration coverage focused on its real filesystem, Git, and SQLite owner while avoiding unrelated channel and plugin doctor cold starts on fork CI.

Unset heartbeat.target now resolves "owner": elected heartbeat notifications deliver to the operator's DM resolved from commands.ownerAllowFrom or the channel allowFrom (first concrete entry; wildcards and channel-scoped wildcards excluded; configured owners exhausted across channels before any channel-local fallback). Delivery requires the channel's own classifier to positively prove a direct destination — every bundled messaging plugin now ships an inferTargetChatType contract — and unproven or group-shaped destinations fail closed to the visible no-route state. The first implicitly-routed delivery carries a one-line self-explanation naming the target: "none" opt-out. Explicit target "last" remains as the follow-the-conversation opt-in. Refines the unreleased #121892 default before it ships; refs #121880.

Unset heartbeat.target silently collapsed into the explicit "none" opt-out: heartbeats ran every 30m by default, elected notifications were dropped with only an in-memory event, and health read fine. Unset now resolves to "last" (the most recent conversation); explicit target: "none" keeps its internal-only contract. Polls skip pre-model with reason no-route while no route exists yet, and status/doctor surface the waiting-for-route state. Deliberate maintainer-owned default cutover: existing installs without a configured target start receiving heartbeat alerts in their last conversation after upgrade.

* fix(openai): describe personality as the canonical GPT-5 style toggle
The shipped config-schema description told operators and models to prefer
agents.defaults.promptOverlays.gpt5.personality, a retired key that config
validation rejects and doctor deletes. plugins.entries.openai.config.personality
is the only live reader (src/agents/gpt5-prompt-overlay.ts).
* docs: align prompt-overlay, truncation-notice, and pruning docs with shipped behavior
- teach plugins.entries.openai.config.personality as canonical; retired
agents.defaults.promptOverlays noted as rejected/migrated
- replace nonexistent agents.defaults.bootstrapPromptTruncationWarning with
prose describing the built-in always-on notice
- reword session-pruning internal constants as built-in behavior, name the
real contextPruning config surface
- delete stale/orphan pages (path3 harness for a never-committed script,
superseded swarms plan, landed path3 artifact-family scoping note)
- fix dead paths in reference/test.md and concepts/typebox.md
* docs: describe the embedded truncation notice as compact
The embedded runtime injects buildBootstrapPromptWarningNotice, which
deliberately omits file names and sizes; per-file diagnostics stay in
/context, status, and logs. Addresses ClawSweeper P2 on #121324.
* docs: doctor migrates the retired personality key instead of removing it
Main landed #121346 mid-flight: doctor --fix now moves
agents.defaults.promptOverlays.gpt5.personality into
plugins.entries.openai.config.personality when unset.
The group-mentions ack gate returned false whenever a group did not require mentions, conflating group policy with whether this message mentioned the agent. Under the default scope, mentioning the agent in a group configured to answer everything produced no ack at all, so the user had no signal the turn was picked up until the reply arrived.
Behavior change on a default path: those groups now show the 👀 ack (and the lifecycle status reactions when messages.statusReactions.enabled is true) on mentions. Mention-required groups, group-all, unmentioned messages, and off/none are unchanged. The gate no longer reads requireMention, so the parameter is gone from the shared type and all channel call sites.
Proven live on Telegram across three configurations, including a no-mention control confirming group-mentions did not become group-all.

* 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.

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).
