* refactor(i18n): re-key native i18n artifacts to content-hash identity (v2)

The native inventory stored a write-only 'line' field per entry, so any
unrelated edit above a string rewrote apps/.i18n/native-source.json
(~half of all commits touching it were pure line-number churn). Identity
was (surface, path, source), duplicating the same string per file
(5385 entries for 4187 unique pairs) and churning IDs on file moves.
Locale artifacts were positional arrays repeating full English source
text, so one inserted string rewrote diff spans in all 21 files.

v2 artifacts: inventory entries keyed by (surface, source) with merged
per-site {path, kind} lists and pure sha256 content-hash IDs; locale
files become id-keyed sorted translation maps. Existing translations
carry over by source match with a deterministic duplicate pick; the
sticky-ID reuse machinery and positional validation are deleted.
Everything under apps/.i18n plus generated platform locale artifacts is
marked linguist-generated. ci-changed-scope gains a one-time
owner-complete migration escape mirroring the control-ui precedent.

CLI surface (baseline/check/sync/verify) and the locale-refresh
workflow are unchanged.

* ci: register run-attempt-state test in its Vitest lane

Commit e04dfd26e2 added extensions/codex/src/app-server/run-attempt-state.test.ts
without a lane owner, so the full-suite ownership audit
(test/vitest-projects-config.test.ts) fails on main. Register it in the
attempt-light shard alongside its run-attempt siblings.

OpenClaw macOS app (dev + signing)

Quick dev run

# from repo root
scripts/restart-mac.sh

Options:

scripts/restart-mac.sh --no-sign   # fastest dev; ad-hoc signing (TCC permissions do not stick)
scripts/restart-mac.sh --sign      # force code signing (requires cert)
scripts/restart-mac.sh --background-only # keep services running without automatic windows

--background-only suppresses first-run onboarding, update and CLI prompts, and the --chat/--dashboard auto-open helpers. Pairing, control-channel, and Mac node services still start. Combine it with --attach-only when an external process owns the local Gateway.

App profiles

Launch a fully isolated app instance with the same profile name used by the CLI:

OPENCLAW_PROFILE=work /Applications/OpenClaw.app/Contents/MacOS/OpenClaw

Profile names use 164 lowercase letters, numbers, underscores, or hyphens and must start with a letter or number. default selects the normal app; gateway, mac, and node are reserved LaunchAgent identities.

scripts/restart-mac.sh intentionally rejects named profiles because its packaging cleanup is host-global. Build/package normally, then launch the named profile directly with the command above.

A named profile keeps state in ~/.openclaw-<name>, uses its own app defaults, Keychain services, duplicate-instance lock, and the CLI-managed Gateway service ai.openclaw.<name>. Unless config or environment selects a port, each profile derives a stable port in the profile 20000...59999 range. The app does not install or modify the host-global Mac node service or OpenClaw login item while a profile is active. The runtime child node still runs in process as usual. App relocation, Sparkle updates, and post-update service repair are disabled in profile mode; update the installed app through the normal default-profile workflow.

Packaging flow

scripts/package-mac-app.sh

Creates dist/OpenClaw.app and signs it via scripts/codesign-mac-app.sh.

Signing behavior

Auto-selects identity (first match):

  1. Developer ID Application
  2. Apple Distribution
  3. Apple Development
  4. first available identity

If none found:

  • errors by default
  • set ALLOW_ADHOC_SIGNING=1 or SIGN_IDENTITY="-" to ad-hoc sign

Team ID audit (Sparkle mismatch guard)

After signing, we read the app bundle Team ID and compare every Mach-O inside the app. If any embedded binary has a different Team ID, signing fails.

Skip the audit:

SKIP_TEAM_ID_CHECK=1 scripts/package-mac-app.sh

Library validation workaround (dev only)

If Sparkle Team ID mismatch blocks loading (common with Apple Development certs), opt in:

DISABLE_LIBRARY_VALIDATION=1 scripts/package-mac-app.sh

This adds com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation to app entitlements. Use for local dev only; keep off for release builds.

Useful env flags

  • SIGN_IDENTITY="Apple Development: Your Name (TEAMID)"
  • ALLOW_ADHOC_SIGNING=1 (ad-hoc, TCC permissions do not persist)
  • CODESIGN_TIMESTAMP=off (offline debug)
  • DISABLE_LIBRARY_VALIDATION=1 (dev-only Sparkle workaround)
  • SKIP_TEAM_ID_CHECK=1 (bypass audit)
