Three defects proven by running the shipped configs:
Kubernetes probes checked only the status code against /startupz, but the
pinned image predates that route and the Control UI answers unknown paths
with a catch-all 200. A wedged pod was therefore marked Ready forever.
Probes now assert the JSON probe contract and target routes the pinned
image actually serves; verified in a kind cluster where the old command
exits 0 on the missing route and the new one exits 1.
render.yaml set no dockerCommand, so the image CMD ran without
--allow-unconfigured and a fresh Render disk exited 78 with 'Missing
config' before binding. Reproduced locally with Render's exact env.
The Cloudflare Container readiness poll had the same route mismatch
against operator-supplied official image digests; it now polls /healthz,
which every published image serves.
Also replaces an R2 verification step that could never fail: wrangler
cannot list object keys, so the documented command 404'd into || true.
* refactor(config): retire dead streaming.progress.render key
The key had zero runtime consumers after #122552. Core doctor now strips it via stripRetiredTuningKnobs, and production LOC is net -13.
* fix(tooling): pin plugin SDK surface counts to the reduced export set
The retired progress-draft render reader counted twice via channel-outbound and channel-message's wildcard re-export.
* feat(ui): open subagent details in chat sidebar
* chore: drop changelog edit (release generation owns it)
* refactor(ui): drop duplicate close in subagent detail panel
The sidebar region header already owns a Close Details control in both
wide and narrow layouts; the panel-local X duplicated it 40px away.
* fix(ui): stop subagent transcript loader when pane presentation retires
Pane retention wipes sidebarContent directly, so the detail slot's
render-time reset can never run again; a pending refresh timer plus
incoming task events kept refetching chat.history for a hidden panel.
* docs(ui): note close-control ownership in subagent detail header
* fix(ui): break transcript renderer import cycle
* fix(ui): use shared action cursor for subagent rows
The template shipped without the operator-facing half: no way to prove the
restore path works before depending on it, no cost signal for the always-on
versus webhook-only choice, no log surfaces, and no failure-mode index.
Adds an architecture diagram, a restore rehearsal, measured recovery numbers
from the real-R2 proof, provisioned-resource cost guidance, wrangler tail
observability, and a troubleshooting index covering image architecture,
Litestream S3 credentials, the startupz/readyz split, and ephemeral-disk
config loss.
The PR-changed test planner fails safe to the compact full-suite plan for any diff touching packages/**, but that compact plan excludes all extension test configs, so mixed package+extension PRs landed with zero extension test execution (escapes: PR #120534 breaking extensions/codex run-attempt.native-hook-relay.test.ts, PRs #122163/#121522 and cd7b7f639d breaking media-understanding-provider.test.ts and thread-lifecycle.test.ts on main full runs). The preflight now appends whole-config shards for the diff's touched extensions whenever the precise plan fails safe; whole configs (not precise targets) because the fail-safe cause leaves the non-extension diff's extension impact unbounded.
* feat(deploy): add experimental Cloudflare template
* fix(deploy): keep container SSH debug access opt-in
* fix(deploy): satisfy scripts tsgo lane and model wrangler entrypoint in knip
* fix(deploy): model wrangler-consumed exports and isolated dependency in knip
The Worker default export and Durable Object class are instantiated by
wrangler from wrangler.jsonc, and @cloudflare/containers lives in the
template's isolated package.json — modeled per the deadcode checks' own
guidance rather than root-manifest changes.
* docs(deploy): align SSH bootstrap flow with the disabled-by-default policy
* refactor(plugins): retire deactivate hook alias

* test(logging): isolate logger test controls
* refactor(logging): internalize file transport controls
* test(plugin-sdk): preserve retired facade coverage
* test(auto-reply): remove stale diagnostic imports
* refactor(logging): delete dead config-read guard
shouldSkipMutatingLoggingConfigRead had no production caller even on main;
it survived the dead-export scan only via logger's testApi re-export. The
test-isolation commit removed that mask, exposing the fossil. Delete the
guard, its test-only re-export, its mock entry, and its dedicated test file.

* refactor(secrets): remove retired collector barrel
* test(plugin-sdk): tighten wildcard surface pin
* refactor(plugin-sdk): retire matrix facade metadata
* style(plugin-sdk): format facade metadata
* fix(ci): load channel setup contracts from source
Repair the main-owned regression from 99d662473c (Peter Steinberger): the new env-contract test could consume stale ignored dist metadata instead of the checked-in plugin declaration.
* test(plugin-sdk): refresh API baseline after rebase
* feat(slack): render live session cards as the default Slack progress mode
Slack streaming.mode default flips partial->progress.
Progress mode renders one live Block Kit session card with a status header, narration, plan, activity, diff stat, and elapsed time; it is edited in place and finalized to success or error with an Open in OpenClaw button when gateway.publicOrigin is set.
Final assistant text always delivers separately.
The shared progress compositor gains a success-only additive per-turn diffStat mirroring the task ledger fold.
resolveGatewayPublicOrigin is exported through the plugin SDK.
The diffs viewer URL falls back to publicOrigin.
The old rich/text progress render fork is deleted.
Native task cards remain unchanged and opt-in.
* chore(config): regenerate bundled channel config metadata
* refactor(slack): keep session card state type internal
* refactor(slack): split session-card and diff-stat owners under lint ceilings
* refactor(channels): reuse diff-stat type from its owner module
Import ChannelProgressDraftDiffStat from progress-draft-diffstat instead of
redeclaring it in the compositor, resolving the all-exports deadcode scan.
* chore(plugin-sdk): regenerate api baselines for channel barrels
Baselines drifted after the rebase reconciled them against main; regenerate to
match the branch's actual channel-message/channel-outbound surface.
* fix(slack): drop a session card that cannot terminalize after final delivery
If the final reply is delivered but the terminal card edit fails, the caller
now clears the stale card instead of leaving it stuck in its Working state
(mirrors the pre-card preview cleanup). Adds a transport-failure regression and
corrects three tests that asserted the prior ignore-the-result behavior.
Documents resolveGatewayPublicOrigin as a dependency-light runtime helper on the
config-contracts SDK subpath, which previously described a type-only surface.
Addresses ClawSweeper P2 (unfinalized card) and P1 (runtime SDK contract).
* fix(slack): suppress default tool messages under the default progress card
resolveChannelStreamingSuppressDefaultToolProgressMessages re-derived the stream
mode from config with an "off" default, unlike its sibling resolvers which take
a caller-resolved mode override. After this branch made progress the Slack
default, a default-config channel turn saw mode "off" and left a stray
"Using tool: X" plain message posting alongside the session card. Thread the
caller-resolved mode through (compositor passes params.mode; Slack dispatch passes
slackStreaming.mode), matching resolveChannelStreamingPreviewToolProgress.
Retarget the progress-session-card delivery-trace golden at an EMPTY Slack config
so it proves the real default path; the regenerated golden is byte-identical,
confirming defaults now yield the clean card sequence (one card post, separate
final text, one terminal update with the Open in OpenClaw button, no stray tool
message). Switch the dispatch delivery-mode mock to the real resolver so the card
tests exercise the true channel default (automatic), not a hand-rolled one.
* chore(plugin-sdk): regenerate api baselines for the streaming mode param
resolveChannelStreamingSuppressDefaultToolProgressMessages gained an optional
mode override; the changed signature reflows the surface hash of every barrel
that re-exports it, so regenerate the affected baselines.
* chore(config): regenerate config baselines
* fix(channels): validate headless channel setup
* docs(channels): document headless provisioning
* fix(channels): repair setup metadata typing
* chore(channels): regenerate official channel catalog for env metadata
* fix(slack): keep mode-conditional env contract plugin-owned
Static --use-env declaration keeps only the unconditional SLACK_BOT_TOKEN;
socket-vs-HTTP conditional requirements (app token, signing secret) stay in
Slack's own setup validation so HTTP mode no longer demands an irrelevant
SLACK_APP_TOKEN.
* chore(sdk): regenerate api baselines and catalog after rebase
* fix(slack): align manifest env declaration with runtime contract
* chore(sdk): regenerate api baselines after rebase
* chore(sdk): regenerate api baselines after rebase
* chore(sdk): regenerate api baselines after rebase
* refactor(infra): extract shared git exec and verified snapshot-copy helpers
Moves the worktrees git wrapper to src/infra/git-exec.ts (with optional
maxOutputBytes for large buffered reads) and the online-backup/sanitize/
VACUUM/verify snapshot step into src/snapshot/openclaw-snapshot-copy.ts so
snapshot backends share one hardened copy path. Behavior-identical moves;
all importers updated.
* feat(snapshot): git-backed versioned SQLite snapshot engine
Deterministic per-table JSONL dumps (PK-ordered, lossless bigint/blob
encoding), verbatim DDL preservation, virtual/shadow-table skipping with
FTS rebuild on restore, secret-table redaction policy, manifest with
per-table row counts and content hashes, and restore verification by
re-serialization. Unchanged data produces no commit.
* feat(backup): recorded runs, freshness surfacing, and scheduled git backups
Every backup attempt is recorded in the previously writer-less backup_runs
table (bounded to 200 rows). openclaw status gains a Backups overview row
and JSON payload; doctor prints an informational hint when no successful
backup is recorded or the newest is stale. New commands: backup git
init/create/log/verify/restore and backup enable/disable, which provision
one idempotent gateway cron job running scheduled git backups.
* fix(state): stop bumping schema_meta.updated_at on unchanged opens
updated_at now records when schema metadata actually changed instead of
when the database was last opened; unconditional bumps dirtied the row on
every open and defeated no-change backup detection.
* docs: document versioned git backups, scheduling, and backup freshness
* fix(backup): satisfy CI ownership checks
* fix(backup): complete CI contract coverage
* fix(backup): complete credential table redaction
* fix(backup): isolate git repository ownership
* fix(backup): persist push degradation
* fix(backup): atomically converge schedules
* fix(status): isolate backup freshness environment
* fix(status): carry scan environment to freshness reads
* fix(backup): harden Git repository ownership
* docs(backup): document Git repository safety
* fix(backup): non-creating outcome log and origin preflight for pushed schedules
Recording a backup outcome never bootstraps an absent state database (a
failed backup on a fresh host would otherwise create a blank DB that a
retry treats as real input), and backup enable --push now requires the
repository to have an origin remote, pointing at backup git init --remote
instead of scheduling permanently degraded pushes.
* refactor(worktrees): use shared git exec helpers
* refactor(worktrees): remove unused git buffer wrapper
* refactor(worktrees): consume buffered git helper
* feat(backup): redact pushed schedules by default
Unattended recurring pushes retain credential-bearing tables durably in
remote Git history, so backup enable --push now defaults to
--exclude-secrets; --include-secrets is the explicit full-fidelity
override (still warned). Local non-push schedules keep full fidelity for
complete restores.
* fix(backup): redact audit HMAC and OAuth pending state; tolerate absent backup_runs
Adds audit_identity_keys (audit HMAC key) and mcp_oauth_pending_authorizations
(live OAuth callback state) to the redaction inventory, and makes read-only
backup freshness treat a same-version database without the additive
backup_runs table as no recorded backups instead of failing before a
writable open converges the schema.
* fix(backup): restrict schedules to local gateways
* fix(snapshot): harden Git restore and redaction
* fix(backup): block pushes of adopted history
* fix(backup): contain commits and pairing secrets
* feat(gateway): add gateway-host desktop source behind desktop.host lab
Introduce the host as a first-class desktop source so operators can view
the machine OpenClaw runs on, not just cloud-worker environments:
- protocol: desktop.observe / desktop.launch with a discriminated
DesktopSource union (host | environment) plus an additive auth hint;
EnvironmentSummary gains a top-level desktop flag
- config: desktop.host { enabled, port?, passwordFile? }, Labs-gated
- rfb-probe: pure RFB version/security-type parser used to detect an
already-running loopback VNC server and classify its auth
- host-source: attaches to 127.0.0.1:<port>, refuses unauthenticated
(None) and unsupported (VeNCrypt) servers, and refuses ARD with the
supported alternative until the macOS milestone
- host-guidance: per-OS enablement text so no path dead-ends
- doctor + status report host desktop availability and auth type only
worker.desktop.observe/launch stay as delegating aliases with identical
behavior. Also drops the now-unused WorkerDesktopTunnels type export.
Live-verified against macOS Screen Sharing: probe reads RFB 003.889,
returns security types [30,33,36,35], classifies ard-account.
* test(gateway): probe RFB handshakes through the socket boundary
The probe's banner and security-offer parsers were exported solely so
unit tests could call them, which the dead-export gate rejects and which
tests internals rather than behavior. Keep them module-local and drive
the probe through a scripted loopback server instead.
The boundary tests also cover what pure-function vectors could not:
handshakes split across packets, legacy RFB 3.3 single-word security,
server-rejected handshakes, early hangups, and connect timeouts.
* feat(ui): let the Desktop panel view this machine, not just cloud workers
The Desktop panel was gated on a cloud-worker session placement, so an
operator running OpenClaw locally had no way to see the machine hosting
their main session even with a VNC server running on it.
Availability now follows the advertised desktop.observe method plus
operator.admin instead of session placement, and the picker lists every
environment whose summary reports a desktop, with the gateway row shown
as "This machine". Sources are passed to the generic desktop.observe /
desktop.launch RPCs; the app launcher stays worker-only. When a host
attach needs a password the gateway did not supply, the panel prompts and
keeps the value in memory for that connection only.
Adds the hostDesktop Labs toggle for desktop.host.enabled.
* fix(scripts): keep the env-var ratchet usable in shallow checkouts
The env-var budget check resolved its base ref, then hard-failed when
`git merge-base` found no shared ancestor. Shallow clones and grafted
agent checkouts resolve origin/main but truncate the history behind it,
so an advisory growth ratchet took down the whole check:changed gate
with "Could not resolve env-var count merge base for: origin/main".
Only the growth comparison needs a baseline, and the script already has
a no-baseline path. Treat git's exit 1 with empty output (no shared
ancestor) as that case and say so on stderr; a genuine failure still
exits 128 and still throws, and the absolute count-vs-budget check runs
either way.
* test(ui): measure the inline-code chip against its line box
The inline-code spacing test compared the chip's height to a prose text
rect, so it silently measured the monospace font's default line spacing.
That is ~17px on macOS and several px shorter on Linux, so the assertion
passed on CI and failed locally at 4.5 against a 3.75 bound -- after the
bound had already been widened once to chase browser font metrics.
Compare the chip to the paragraph's CSS line box instead, which is what
"the chip must not disrupt the line" actually means and is platform
independent. The horizontal gap stays as-is: it is em-derived padding
plus border, and it is the assertion that catches detached punctuation.
Verified both directions on macOS: the file is fully green, and
restoring the pre-fix 0.15em/0.35em padding still fails the gap
assertion at 5.41.
* feat(gateway): view macOS Screen Sharing from the Desktop panel
Modern macOS only offers ARD account authentication for Screen Sharing,
so the host desktop source refused every Mac. The Gateway now performs
the ARD handshake itself against the loopback server and hands the
browser a plain RFB 003.008 no-auth handshake, so the operator's macOS
account password authenticates the desktop without ever reaching the
browser, the observe result, a URL, or a log.
- rfb-preauth: ARD (type 30) Diffie-Hellman with MD5-derived AES-128-ECB
credentials, and VncAuth (type 2) bit-reversed DES, both under a single
10s negotiation deadline; Apple's RFB 003.889 maps to 3.8
- observe-bridge: runs pre-auth before splicing and starts the view-only
filter at clientInit, since the browser handshake is consumed here;
worker tokens keep the original version start phase
- host-source: attaches ARD, requiring per-observation credentials that
live only in the one-shot observer token and are dropped after use
- doctor: offers an explicitly confirmed sudo launchctl repair when
Screen Sharing is off, and prints the System Settings path otherwise
Live-verified against this Mac's Screen Sharing: the DH exchange and
credential framing are accepted and the server returns SecurityResult.
The VncAuth DES vector is confirmed against OpenSSL independently.
* fix(plugins): own packed entry lifecycles by package
Persist package ownership per runtime child, route lifecycle actions through one closed resolver, reconcile removed child policy during updates, and retain rollback generations until durable config/index commit.
* fix(plugins): break uninstall policy import cycle
* test(plugins): model package ownership in lifecycle fixtures
* feat(gateway): projects.list groups known checkouts by repo identity
Implements docs/plan/runners.md milestone 4 derived projects read model.
* feat(ui): regroup the Where picker by gateway, devices, and cloud
* feat(ui): placement chip shows where a session runs with reclaim
Implements docs/plan/runners.md milestone 4 placement display and reclaim.
* test(ui): advertise terminal and browser panels in the mock harness
The mocked Control UI never advertised browser.request or terminal.open and
left terminalEnabled false, so the chat header's panel toggles were invisible
in the harness and could not be visually verified.
* fix(ui): give the chat pane header the only panel toggle row
The session workspace rail header rendered Terminal, Browser, Ask OpenClaw and
Changes alongside its own dock/refresh/collapse controls. Terminal and Changes
already lived in the chat pane header, so both rendered twice at once, while
Browser was reachable only from inside a files rail and Ask OpenClaw sat in a
per-session rail despite being a global surface that already owns a sidebar
entry (settings route 'custodian').
The rail header now owns workspace-file actions only. Browser moves up to the
pane header beside Terminal and into the narrow-header overflow menu; the
duplicated Terminal and Changes buttons and the Ask OpenClaw toggle are gone.
Production LOC: +21 -84.
* test(ui): stop the vite stub from shadowing the mock bootstrap config
ui/vite.config.ts registers a placeholder /control-ui-config.json middleware
and config-file plugins load before inline ones, so the mock gateway plugin's
bootstrap body never reached the app and every scenario bootstrap field was
silently dropped. Marking the mock plugin 'pre' lets it answer first.
* feat(gateway): add /startupz startup probe with auth-gated version detail
Startup/traffic-admission probe that excludes downstream channel health:
200 started once startup work completes and the gateway is not draining,
503 starting/draining otherwise. Version and uptime are only included for
local-direct or authenticated callers, reusing the /readyz detail gate.
* fix(deploy): use /startupz for traffic admission in bundled templates
fly.toml gains its missing HTTP check; render.yaml stops using pure
liveness as admission; k8s pins an immutable image tag, seeds config
only when missing, and adds a startupProbe; stale Fly healthcheck-port
doc corrected (healthcheck follows the active gateway lock port since
bc4221a07e).
* docs(k8s): make persistent-file config ownership explicit with reseed path
Canonical beta branch head exact-SHA provenance; unique merged-PR attribution for GitHub web-flow signed transport; extract duplicated gate into one trusted helper.
