Add optional name, email, avatar, and denchOrgId fields to
telemetry.json. When present, all telemetry layers (CLI, web server,
web client, OpenClaw plugin) call PostHog identify() with $name,
$email, $avatar, and dench_org_id person properties.
Remove $process_person_profile:false from all layers so every install
gets a PostHog person profile. Enable session replay with masking
controlled by privacy mode (all text/inputs masked when on, nothing
masked when off).

Made-with: Cursor
The root layout called getOrCreateAnonymousId() in a Server Component
without marking the route as dynamic. Next.js treated it as static,
pre-rendering the developer's UUID into the standalone build shipped
via npm — so every `npx denchclaw` user shared the same PostHog identity.
- Add `export const dynamic = "force-dynamic"` to root layout
- Replace `process.env.HOME || "~"` fallback with `homedir()` in web
telemetry and posthog-analytics plugin (Node.js path.join doesn't
expand "~", creating a relative path under cwd instead)
Bootstrap posthog-js with the persisted install ID from the server, forward distinctId to API routes, and restructure feedback traces to use chronological conversation order.
Client-side posthog-js was using a random anonymous ID (reset every
page load) while server-side posthog-node used a deterministic
SHA256(hostname:username) hash. Bootstrap the client with the server's
anonymous ID so both sides share the same per-machine-per-user identity.
- Fix bootstrap-command test: mock ensureManagedWebRuntime to probe
directly instead of requiring standalone build on disk
- Add PostHog telemetry to CLI and web app with opt-out support
- Add dench alias package (npm rejects name; kept for future use)
- Bump version to 2.0.4 and publish to npm
Overhaul the Dench web app with a comprehensive visual redesign and several
major feature additions across the chat interface, workspace, and agent
runtime layer.
Theme & Design System
- Replace the dark-only palette with a full light/dark theme system that
respects system preference via localStorage + inline script (no FOUC).
- Introduce new design tokens: glassmorphism surfaces, semantic colors
(success/warning/error/info), object-type chip palettes, and a tiered
shadow scale (sm/md/lg/xl).
- Add Instrument Serif + Inter via Google Fonts for a refined typographic
hierarchy; headings use the serif face, body uses Inter.
- Rebrand UI from "Ironclaw" to "Dench" across the landing page and
metadata.
Chat & Chain-of-Thought
- Rewrite the chain-of-thought component with inline media detection and
rendering — images, video, audio, and PDFs referenced in agent output
are now displayed directly in the conversation thread.
- Add status indicator parts (e.g. "Preparing response...",
"Optimizing session context...") that render as subtle activity badges
instead of verbose reasoning blocks.
- Integrate react-markdown with remark-gfm for proper markdown rendering
in assistant messages (tables, strikethrough, autolinks, etc.).
- Improve report-block splitting and lazy-loaded ReportCard rendering.
Workspace
- Introduce @tanstack/react-table for the object table, replacing the
hand-rolled table with full column sorting, fuzzy filtering via
match-sorter-utils, row selection, and bulk actions.
- Add a new media viewer component for in-workspace image/video/PDF
preview.
- New API routes: bulk-delete entries, field management (CRUD + reorder),
raw-file serving endpoint for media assets.
- Redesign workspace sidebar, empty state, and entry detail modal with
the new theme tokens and improved layout.
Agent Runtime
- Switch web agent execution from --local to gateway-routed mode so
concurrent chat threads share the gateway's lane-based concurrency
system, eliminating cross-process file-lock contention.
- Advertise "tool-events" capability during WebSocket handshake so the
gateway streams tool start/update/result events to the UI.
- Add new agent callback hooks: onLifecycleStart, onCompactionStart/End,
and onToolUpdate for richer real-time feedback.
- Forward media URLs emitted by agent events into the chat stream.
Dependencies
- Add @tanstack/match-sorter-utils and @tanstack/react-table to the web
app.
