- Agents/diagnostics: split slow embedded-run `attempt-dispatch` startup summaries into workspace, prompt, runtime-plan, and final dispatch subspans so traces identify the delayed setup phase. Fixes #82782. (#82783) Thanks @galiniliev.

- CLI/media: accept HTTP(S) URLs in `openclaw infer image describe --file`, fetching remote images through the guarded media path instead of treating URLs as local files. Fixes #82837. (#82854) Thanks @neeravmakwana.

- Agents/subagents: keep session-backed parent runs active when the child wait call times out before the child session has actually settled, so late subagent completions are reconciled instead of being lost. Fixes #82787. Thanks @ramitrkar-hash.

- Control UI: advertise shared Gateway protocol constants in browser connect frames, fixing protocol mismatch handshakes after the protocol 5 bump. Fixes #82882. Thanks @galiniliev.

- Agents/subagents: route group/channel subagent completions through message-tool-only handoffs when required and keep active-requester wake failures from dropping completion delivery. Fixes #82803. Thanks @galiniliev, @yozakura-ava, and @moeedahmed.

- Memory-core: scan persisted memory source sessions on startup, comparing on-disk transcripts against the index and marking only missing/newer/resized files dirty for incremental sync. Fixes #82341. (#82341) Thanks @giodl73-repo.

- Telegram: keep the top-level default account in the account list when named accounts or bindings are added alongside top-level credentials, preserving default polling while still letting named-only configs resolve to a single account. Fixes #82794. (#82794) Thanks @giodl73-repo.
