This update focuses on critical stability fixes for Apple Silicon local embeddings, a new credential migration system for Codex and Hermes, and significant refinements to the Control UI and Telegram integration.
node-llama-cpp and Metal cleanup, local memory embeddings are now isolated in a worker process by default. This prevents native teardown failures from crashing the entire gateway. If a worker fails, the system now degrades safely to configured fallbacks or FTS-only search.openclaw migrate command allows users to import auth credentials from Codex and Hermes into OpenClaw auth profiles. This includes support for OpenAI OAuth, OpenCode, and GitHub Copilot credentials, with strict guards against TOCTOU and credential fingerprinting errors.ui:build in the full and ciArtifacts profiles, ensuring that the Control UI assets are generated alongside the backend. Additionally, the project has enabled modern TypeScript module syntax (verbatimModuleSyntax) to improve type-checking and build hygiene.runtimeConfigSnapshot before SIGUSR1 in-process restarts, preventing the gateway from reverting newly patched configurations to stale in-memory values.heartbeat_respond loops, which previously caused massive token usage and cache reads without performing useful work.pi-embedded-runner now propagates trigger-derived priority (e.g., "foreground" for users, "background" for cron) to the global lane, ensuring user interactions are not queued behind background maintenance tasks.+duration syntax for one-shot jobs and honors sessionTarget: "isolated" to prevent background jobs from colliding with active WebUI dashboard sessions.These changes significantly harden the system for power users and developers. The isolation of local embeddings removes a major crash vector for macOS users, while the credential migration path simplifies the transition from legacy tools. From a performance perspective, the priority propagation in the global lane ensures that the system remains responsive during heavy background activity.
Furthermore, the refinements to Telegram and Discord integrations reduce "noise" in agent prompts and improve the accuracy of context-aware responses. The build system changes eliminate a common source of frustration where the Control UI would disappear after a backend rebuild, streamlining the development and deployment workflow.
