Two production fixes ship: Telegram group transcripts survive session resets without losing older messages, and OpenRouter-routed DeepSeek V4 requests stop sending conflicting reasoning controls.

The ambient transcript watermark introduced in #99306 was surviving session resets while the transcript rows it vouched for did not, leaving group messages permanently invisible in prompt windows after a manual, daily, or delete reset. Ambient transcript watermarks now carry the transcript session id, resolve only for the current session entry, and skip stale room-event hooks that no longer match the prepared transcript session, which backfills rows missing from the new session transcript while preserving steady-state filtering [1][2].

DeepSeek V4 models routed through OpenRouter could hit a 400 error because OpenClaw sent both OpenRouter reasoning controls and DeepSeek-native thinking controls in the same request. OpenRouter DeepSeek V4 requests now stay on the OpenRouter reasoning payload shape (`reasoning.effort`) and no longer add DeepSeek-native `thinking` / `reasoning_effort` fields after the provider wrapper runs [3][4].

On macOS 26.4, casting a vote in a native Messages poll produced a vote with no balloon payload, so the associated `4000` message shipped (`is_sent=1`) but never delivered (`is_delivered=0`) and never registered on the recipient's poll. The fix applies the Polls balloon and payload across the associated message and backing item, with focused regression coverage [5][6].

A refactor consolidates 17 duplicate non-array object type guards under `src/` to the canonical `isRecord` export from `@openclaw/normalization-core/record-coerce`, removing maintenance surface without adding new workspace dependency edges [7]. The docs desk saw routine syncs and translation refreshes [8][9][10][11].
