- Plugins/CLI: prefer native require for compiled bundled plugin JavaScript before jiti so read-only config, status, device, and node commands avoid unnecessary transform overhead on slow hosts. Fixes #62842. Thanks @Effet.

- Plugins/compat: add missing dated compatibility records for legacy extension-api, memory registration, provider hook/type aliases, runtime aliases, channel SDK helpers, and approval/test utility shims. Thanks @vincentkoc.

- Plugins/CLI: refresh the persisted registry after managed plugin files are removed so ClawHub uninstall cannot leave stale `plugins list` entries. Thanks @codex.

- Plugins/CLI: make plugin install and uninstall config writes conflict-aware, clear stale denylist entries on explicit reinstall/removal, and delete managed plugin files only after config/index commit succeeds. Thanks @codex.

- Plugins: fail `plugins update` when tracked plugin or hook updates error, keep bundled runtime-dependency repair behind restrictive allowlists, and reject package installs with unloadable extension entries. Thanks @codex.

- Gateway/chat: keep duplicate attachment-backed `chat.send` retries with the same idempotency key on the documented in-flight path so aborts still target the real active run. Fixes #70139. Thanks @Feelw00.

- MCP channel bridge (seeded Gateway + stdio bridge + raw Claude notification-frame smoke): `pnpm test:docker:mcp-channels` (script: `scripts/e2e/mcp-channels-docker.sh`)

- Pi bundle MCP tools (real stdio MCP server + embedded Pi profile allow/deny smoke): `pnpm test:docker:pi-bundle-mcp-tools` (script: `scripts/e2e/pi-bundle-mcp-tools-docker.sh`)

- Cron/subagent MCP cleanup (real Gateway + stdio MCP child teardown after isolated cron and one-shot subagent runs): `pnpm test:docker:cron-mcp-cleanup` (script: `scripts/e2e/cron-mcp-cleanup-docker.sh`)

- Plugins (install smoke + `/plugin` alias + Claude-bundle restart semantics): `pnpm test:docker:plugins` (script: `scripts/e2e/plugins-docker.sh`)

- Plugins (install smoke, ClawHub install/uninstall, marketplace updates, and Claude-bundle enable/inspect): `pnpm test:docker:plugins` (script: `scripts/e2e/plugins-docker.sh`)

Set `OPENCLAW_PLUGINS_E2E_CLAWHUB=0` to skip the live ClawHub block, or override the default package with `OPENCLAW_PLUGINS_E2E_CLAWHUB_SPEC` and `OPENCLAW_PLUGINS_E2E_CLAWHUB_ID`.

- Plugin update unchanged smoke: `pnpm test:docker:plugin-update` (script: `scripts/e2e/plugin-update-unchanged-docker.sh`)

- Config reload metadata smoke: `pnpm test:docker:config-reload` (script: `scripts/e2e/config-reload-source-docker.sh`)

- Bundled plugin runtime deps: `pnpm test:docker:bundled-channel-deps` builds a small Docker runner image by default, builds and packs OpenClaw once on the host, then mounts that tarball into each Linux install scenario. Reuse the image with `OPENCLAW_SKIP_DOCKER_BUILD=1`, skip the host rebuild after a fresh local build with `OPENCLAW_BUNDLED_CHANNEL_HOST_BUILD=0`, or point at an existing tarball with `OPENCLAW_BUNDLED_CHANNEL_PACKAGE_TGZ=/path/to/openclaw-*.tgz`. The full Docker aggregate pre-packs this tarball once, then shards bundled channel checks into independent lanes, including separate update lanes for Telegram, Discord, Slack, Feishu, memory-lancedb, and ACPX. Use `OPENCLAW_BUNDLED_CHANNELS=telegram,slack` to narrow the channel matrix when running the bundled lane directly, or `OPENCLAW_BUNDLED_CHANNEL_UPDATE_TARGETS=telegram,acpx` to narrow the update scenario. The lane also verifies that `channels.<id>.enabled=false` and `plugins.entries.<id>.enabled=false` suppress doctor/runtime-dependency repair.
