Gateway fixes bind cancellations to exact live runs; hot reload keeps webhook retries

By RepoJournal · Filed · About OpenClaw

OpenClaw's gateway now aborts the precise live run when a task is cancelled and keeps webhook ingress retryable during hot reload.

Cancelling a task now aborts the exact live run owned by the gateway: the fix binds ordinary Gateway-owned tasks to their live producer, uses the canonical abort owner, and confirms settlement before reporting cancellation [1]. Background-command ownership, cancellation reasons, requester access, and unrelated work are preserved.

Webhook ingress stays retryable through hot reload: the gateway retains webhook ownership through account and registry replacement, shared-route handoff, startup backoff, and failed rollback, while retiring removed, disabled, manually stopped, or terminal owners [2]. This prevents webhooks from dropping during reload cycles.

The web provider forwarding layers were removed from plugins, simplifying the provider stack [3]. Watch devices gain opt-in native standalone realtime voice with provider-direct WebRTC/Opus, scoped Gateway control, and explicit call/audio ownership; phone-mediated voice is preserved [4]. macOS legacy device identity migration now reports conflicting file paths and device IDs across Application Support and Group Containers instead of failing silently [5]. The docs repo only received routine sync mirrors from openclaw/openclaw commits, including the watch voice change [6].
