- Remove standalone Next.js output; gateway now installs deps and builds
on first start, skips if .next/BUILD_ID already exists
- Rename openclaw→ironclaw workspace refs in all 30 extensions + clawdbot/moltbot
- Add @tiptap/core as explicit dep in apps/web (pnpm strict mode requires it)
- Improve ensureDepsInstalled: detect pnpm workspace vs npm global install
- Remove pre-build step from deploy.sh; ship source, build on user machine
- Update package.json files to include full apps/web/ source

- Add gateway.webApp config (enabled, port, dev) as the unified toggle
for both the Next.js web UI and the built-in control UI
- Spawn Next.js app alongside the gateway; stop it on shutdown
- Auto-enable webApp in config for new and existing installs
- Pre-build Next.js in deploy.sh and ship .next/ in the npm package
so installed users get instant startup (no build step)
- Gateway skips build when pre-built .next/ exists; builds on first
run for dev/git-checkout users
- Onboarding "Open the Web UI" now opens the Ironclaw web app
- Fix pre-existing Next.js build errors (ES2023 lib, Tiptap v3 types,
Suspense boundary, ReportConfig type alignment)
- Rename deploy target from openclaw-ai-sdk to ironclaw

Rebrand the project from the OpenClaw/Lobster identity to Ironclaw with
a new iron-metallic visual language across CLI and web UI.
## CLI identity
- Rename default CLI name from `openclaw` to `ironclaw` (keep `openclaw`
in KNOWN_CLI_NAMES and regex for backward compat)
- Set process.title to `ironclaw`; update all `[openclaw]` log prefixes
to `[ironclaw]`
- Add `IRONCLAW_*` env var checks (IRONCLAW_HIDE_BANNER,
IRONCLAW_NO_RESPAWN, IRONCLAW_NODE_OPTIONS_READY,
IRONCLAW_TAGLINE_INDEX) with fallback to legacy `OPENCLAW_*` variants
## Animated ASCII banner
- Replace the old lobster block-art with a figlet "ANSI Shadow" font
IRONCLAW ASCII wordmark
- Add `gradient-string` dependency for terminal gradient rendering
- Implement iron shimmer animation: a bright highlight sweeps across the
ASCII art (~2.5 s at 12 fps, 3 full gradient cycles) using a rotating
iron-to-silver color array
- Make `emitCliBanner` async to support the animation; update all call
sites (preaction hook, route, run-main) to await it
- Move banner emission earlier in `runCli()` so it appears for all
invocations (bare command, subcommands, help) with the existing
bannerEmitted guard preventing double-emission
## Iron palette and theme
- Rename LOBSTER_PALETTE → IRON_PALETTE in `src/terminal/palette.ts`
with new cool-steel color tokens (steel grey accent, bright silver
highlight, dark iron dim, steel bl info)
- Re-export LOBSTER_PALETTE as backward-compatible alias
- Update `src/terminal/theme.ts` to import and use IRON_PALETTE
## Tagline cleanup
- Remove lobster-themed, Apple-specific, and platform-joke taglines
- Fix smart-quote and em-dash formatting across remaining taglines
- Add "Holiday taglines" comment grouping for date-gated entries
## Web UI
- Add `framer-motion`, `fuse.js`, and `next-themes` to web app deps
- Add custom font files: Bookerly (regular/bold/italic), SpaceGrotesk
(light/regular/medium/semibold/bold), FoundationTitlesHand
- Update chat panel labels: "OpenClaw Chat" → "Ironclaw Chat",
"Message OpenClaw..." → "Message Ironclaw..."
- Update sidebar header: "OpenClaw Dench" → "Ironclaw"
- CSS formatting cleanup: expand single-lins, add consistent
blank lines between selector blocks, normalize child combinator
spacing (li > ul → li>ul)
── Tiptap Markdown Editor ──
- Add full Tiptap-based WYSIWYG markdown editor (markdown-editor.tsx, 709 LOC)
with bubble menu, auto-save (debounced), image drag-and-drop/paste upload,
table editing, task list checkboxes, and frontmatter preservation on save.
- Add slash command system (slash-command.tsx, 607 LOC) with "/" trigger for
block insertion (headings, lists, tables, code blocks, images, reports) and
"@" trigger for file/document mention with fuzzy search across the workspace
tree.
- Add ReportBlockNode (report-block-node.tsx) — custom Tiptap node that renders
embedded report-json blocks as interactive ReportCard widgets inline in the
editor, with expand/collapse and edit-JSON support.
- Add workspace asset serving API (api/workspace/assets/[...path]/route.ts) to
serve images from the workspace with proper MIME types.
- Add workspace file upload orkspace/upload/route.ts) for multipart
image uploads (10 MB limit, image types only), saving to assets/ directory.
- Add ~500 lines of Tiptap editor CSS to globals.css (editor layout, task lists,
images, tables, slash command dropdown, bubble menu toolbar, code blocks, etc.).
- Add 14 @tiptap/* dependencies to apps/web/package.json (react, starter-kit,
markdown, image, link, table, task-list, suggestion, placeholder, etc.).
── Document View: Edit/Read Mode Toggle ──
- document-view.tsx: Add edit/read mode toggle; defaults to edit mode when a
filePath is available. Lazy-loads MarkdownEditor to keep initial bundle light.
- workspace/page.tsx: Pass activePath, tree, onSave, onNavigate, and
onRefreshTree through to DocumentView for full editor integration with
workspace navigation and tree refresh after saves.
── Subagent Session Isolation ──
- agent-runner.ts: Add RunAgentOptions with optional sessionId; when set, spawns
the agent with --session-key agent:main:subagent:<id> ant so
file-scoped sidebar chats run in isolated sessions independent of the main
agent.
- route.ts (chat API): Accept sessionId from request body and forward it to
runAgent. Resolve workspace file path prefixes (resolveAgentWorkspacePrefix)
so tree-relative paths become agent-cwd-relative.
- chat-panel.tsx: Create per-instance DefaultChatTransport that injects sessionId
via body function and a ref (avoids stale closures). On file change, auto-load
the most recent session and its messages. Refresh session tab list after
streaming ends. Stop ongoing stream when switching sessions.
- register.agent.ts: Add --session-key <key> and --lane <lane> CLI flags.
- agent-via-gateway.ts: Wire sessionKey into session resolution and validation
for both interactive and --stream-json code paths.
- workspace.ts: Add resolveAgentWorkspacePrefix() to map workspace-root-relative
paths to repo-root-relative paths for the agent process.
── Error Surfacing ──
- agent-runner.ts: Add onAgentError callback extraction helpers
(parseAgentErrorMessage, parseErrorBody, parseErrorFromStderr) to surface
API-level errors (402 payment, rate limits, etc.) to the UI. Captures stderr
for fallback error detection on non-zero exit.
- route.ts: Wire onAgentError into the SSE stream as [error]-prefixed text
parts. Improve onError and onClose handlers with clearer error messages and
exit code reporting.
- chat-message.tsx: Detect [error]-prefixed text segments and render them as
styled error banners with alert icon instead of plain text.
- chat-panel.tsx: Restyle the transport-level error bar with themed colors and
an alert icon consistent with in-message error styling.
