Preserving signed thinking payloads across providers

OpenClaw now preserves provider-owned signed thinking text byte-for-byte, fixing the regression where replay altered Anthropic thought blocks.

The most consequential change is a fix to thinking payload handling in agent transports [1]. Previously, signed Anthropic thinking text and Bedrock reasoningText were not preserved byte-for-byte on transport ingest and replay, which could corrupt replay fidelity. Now those provider-owned payloads are preserved, while unsigned fallback text and synthetic reasoning_content blocks keep their sanitation. This closes issue #87459 and affects any flow that streams or replays messages through Anthropic or Bedrock transports. If you depend on exact replay of reasoning, this is the fix you were waiting for.

A refactor centralizes the OpenAI Codex OAuth flow by removing duplicated browser/token code, keeping the existing OpenAI plugin OAuth runtime as the single implementation [2]. No user-visible OAuth behavior change is intended, and legacy src/llm login/refresh behavior is preserved, including abort propagation and callback handling. If you maintain forks or custom OAuth wrappers, you should verify nothing depends on the old duplicated paths.

CI gains phase-level timing instrumentation in scripts/build-all.mjs so `pnpm build:ci-artifacts` logs each build phase duration with a slowest-first summary [3]. A duplicate `Build Control UI` step was removed. This is instrumentation only; optimization is deliberately deferred until the timing data points to the real bottleneck. Expect clearer CI logs, not faster builds yet.

Across docs and packaging, the day is routine: five docs sync commits mirror upstream changes [4][5][6][7][8], and CrabBox released 0.21.0 and opened the 0.21.1 changelog [9][10].
