Vyctor H. Brzezowski aba94bbe0b fix: install or review the publisher you picked when ClawHub skills share a slug (#121697)
* fix(skills): keep ClawHub publisher identity from search through install

ClawHub search returns one entry per publisher, so several results can share a
slug. Every client collapsed the selection to that bare slug before calling
skills.detail and skills.install, and ClawHub answered 409 AMBIGUOUS_SKILL_SLUG
with no in-product way forward.

searchClawHubSkills now records the publisher-qualified reference once, on the
result that carries it, and the Gateway protocol documents it. skills.detail
parses the same reference grammar skills.install already accepted, so review and
install cannot resolve to different publishers. Control UI carries that one
reference through row actions, detail, busy state, and acknowledgement retries,
and shows it so otherwise identical rows are distinguishable.

Fixes #117633

* fix(apps): send the ClawHub publisher reference from native skill browsers

macOS, iOS, and Android read the qualified reference from search results and use
it for skills.detail, install, busy state, installed matching, and list identity,
so two publishers sharing a slug stay distinct instead of collapsing into one
ambiguous request.

* fix(skills): refuse external-source skill detail instead of reading a same-slug skill

ClawHub has no source-qualified read endpoint, so a skills-sh reference parsed
down to its bare slug would have returned a registry skill's card while install
resolved the external artifact. Review and install could name different skills.

skills.detail now fails closed on any reference that carries a source, and the
macOS and AgentPro rows show the publisher reference next to the summary instead
of only when a summary is missing, so same-slug rows stay distinguishable.

* chore(apps): refresh native i18n source baseline for the skill row references

* refactor(skills): drop the unread search-result ownerHandle field

installRef is the one reference clients send back, and no client reads the
publisher handle separately, so the protocol and Control UI carry one field
instead of two.

* fix(skills): name the next step when external skill detail is refused

Clients that gate install behind a successful review would otherwise see only a
refusal, so the error names the direct install path and the CLI equivalent.

* fix(macos): use a doc comment on the ClawHub row subtitle

swift-format's docComments rule requires doc comments on declarations; the
subtitle property carried a regular comment and failed macos-swift.

* fix(skills): carry ClawHub trust state to clients that can install

Forwarding installRef let clients install the exact publisher the operator
picked, including external skills-sh sources. It did not forward the trust
state that says ClawHub never scanned that source, so iOS AgentPro — the one
surface that installs in a single tap with no review step — could install an
unscanned artifact with nothing on screen saying so. The CLI already labels
these (docs/clawhub/cli.md, docs/cli/skills.md); native clients could not,
because trustState was never on the wire.

trustState becomes an optional field on SkillsSearchResultSchema. It is purely
additive: older clients ignore an unknown key and the field is absent for
registry results, so downgraded readers are unaffected and no protocol version
moves.

Every client that renders a search row now shows "Not scanned by ClawHub",
matching the CLI wording exactly: iOS AgentPro in the row above the install
button, macOS and Android beside the review action, and Control UI on the row
that explains why review is refused for these sources.

Covered by a wire assertion that the state reaches clients for an external
source and stays absent for registry rows, plus decode-and-label tests on the
shared Swift kit and the Android parser, and a Control UI render assertion.

* fix(ui): size the ClawHub detail dialog to a refusal message

Refusing detail for an external source made an error-only dialog reachable.
The shared preview panel reserves a tall reader height for skill documents, so
a two-line refusal rendered in a mostly empty dialog and read as broken rather
than deliberate. Found by inspecting the review captures.

* revert(ui,apps): drop the ClawHub trust label layer

Maintainer product decision: skills.sh runs its own scanners, so OpenClaw does
not add a second alert layer in the apps. Removes the label from Control UI,
iOS, macOS and Android, and drops the trustState wire field that nothing would
render. The CLI keeps its existing label; changing that is a separate call.

Publisher identity, the fail-closed detail refusal, and the message-only dialog
are unchanged. Splits the oversized skills view test file to satisfy max-lines
without a suppression.

* test(ui): fix ClawHub skill fixture checks

* chore(plugin-sdk): refresh API baseline

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)
