Bump version and publish ironclaw@2026.2.10-1.14. Includes chain-of-thought,
chat-message, active-runs, and agent-runner improvements.
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Syntax highlighting & code viewer:
- Add shiki for syntax-highlighted fenced code blocks in chat messages
- New SyntaxBlock component (lazy shiki, dual light/dark theme)
- New CodeViewer for workspace file panel (routes code files via isCodeFile())
- API routes (browse-file, virtual-file) now return "code" type for known extensions
Diff rendering:
- New DiffCard component for rendering unified diffs with add/remove colors
- diff-blocks.ts parser to extract fenced blocks from markdown
- Chain-of-thought tool steps show inline diffs for edit/write tools
(synthetic from old_string/new_string or direct from tool output)
- Agent runner passes through diff/firstChangedLine from edit tool results
- Document view handles diff blocks alongside report blocks
Rich chat editor (Tiptap):
- Replace plain textarea with Tiptap-based ChatEditor
- File mention extension (@-mention files with autocomplete dropdown)
- File mention list with keyboard navigation and search via suggest-files API
- New suggest-files API endpoint for fuzzy file search
File search & navigation:
- FileSearch component in workspace sidebar (debounced search, keyboard nav)
- Search results navigate sidebar to file location and open in panel
- File picker modal for browsing/selecting workspace files
Drag & drop:
- File tree nodes support native HTML5 drag (application/x-file-mention)
for cross-component drops (e.g. dragging files into chat editor)
Chat attachments reworked:
- Switch from browser File objects to path-based references (name + path)
- Simplified attachment strip (no media previews, shows shortened paths)
Also adds software-engineering skill and related CSS for code blocks/shiki.
* feat(gateway): add register and awaitDecision methods to ExecApprovalManager
Separates registration (synchronous) from waiting (async) to allow callers
to confirm registration before the decision is made. Adds grace period for
resolved entries to prevent race conditions.
* feat(gateway): add two-phase response and waitDecision handler for exec approvals
Send immediate 'accepted' response after registration so callers can confirm
the approval ID is valid. Add exec.approval.waitDecision endpoint to wait for
decision on already-registered approvals.
* fix(exec): await approval registration before returning approval-pending
Ensures the approval ID is registered in the gateway before the tool returns.
Uses exec.approval.request with expectFinal:false for registration, then
fire-and-forget exec.approval.waitDecision for the decision phase.
Fixes#2402
* test(gateway): update exec-approval test for two-phase response
Add assertion for immediate 'accepted' response before final decision.
* test(exec): update approval-id test mocks for new two-phase flow
Mock both exec.approval.request (registration) and exec.approval.waitDecision
(decision) calls to match the new internal implementation.
* fix(lint): add cause to errors, use generics instead of type assertions
* fix(exec-approval): guard register() against duplicate IDs
* fix: remove unused timeoutMs param, guard register() against duplicates
* fix(exec-approval): throw on duplicate ID, capture entry in closure
* fix: return error on timeout, remove stale test mock branch
* fix: wrap register() in try/catch, make timeout handling consistent
* fix: update snapshot on timeout, make two-phase response opt-in
* fix: extend grace period to 15s, return 'expired' status
* fix: prevent double-resolve after timeout
* fix: make register() idempotent, capture snapshot before await
* fix(gateway): complete two-phase exec approval wiring
* fix: finalize exec approval race fix (openclaw#3357) thanks @ramin-shirali
* fix(protocol): regenerate exec approval request models (openclaw#3357) thanks @ramin-shirali
* fix(test): remove unused callCount in discord threading test

* fix(config): migrate audio.transcription with any CLI command
Two bugs fixed:
1. Removed CLI allowlist from mapLegacyAudioTranscription - the modern
config format has no such restriction, so the allowlist only blocked
legacy migration of valid configs like whisperx-transcribe.sh
2. Moved audio.transcription migration to a separate migration entry -
it was nested inside routing.config-v2 which early-exited when no
routing section existed
Closes#5017
* fix(macos): ensure exec approval prompt displays the command
The NSStackView and NSScrollView for the command text lacked proper
width constraints, causing the accessory view to collapse to zero
width in some cases. This fix:
1. Adds minimum width constraint (380px) to the root stack view
2. Adds minimum width constraint to the command scroll view
3. Enables vertical resizing and scrolling for long commands
4. Adds max height constraint to prevent excessively tall prompts
Closes#5038
* fix: validate legacy audio transcription migration input (openclaw#5042) thanks @shayan919293
* docs: add changelog note for legacy audio migration guard (openclaw#5042) thanks @shayan919293
* fix: satisfy lint on audio transcription migration braces (openclaw#5042) thanks @shayan919293

- Switch DEFAULT_PACKAGE_NAME to ironclaw in update-cli and update-runner
- Add cliName param to system prompt builder for dynamic CLI references
- Update README clone URL from openclaw-ai-sdk to ironclaw
- Update cron dashboard empty state to reference ironclaw CLI
- Restructure dench skill: flatten knowledge/ paths, add browser use section
- Fix spawnAgentProcess path resolution: walk up to find package root
instead of assuming 2 levels up from apps/web (breaks in standalone
where cwd is deep inside .next/standalone/); use openclaw.mjs in
production since scripts/run-node.mjs isn't shipped in the package
- Add missing readline error handlers in active-runs.ts and
agent-runner.ts to prevent "Unhandled 'error' event" crashes when
the child process fails to start
- Pass OPENCLAW_ROOT env var from gateway to standalone server so the
web app can reliably find the CLI entry point
- Add 32 tests covering path resolution, SSE streaming, error handling,
run lifecycle, replay, and abort

Ship a self-contained standalone server with the npm package so
`npm i -g ironclaw` can serve the web UI without runtime `npm install`
or `next build`. This eliminates the fragile first-boot build step
and cuts the cold-start time for the gateway web app.
Changes:
- next.config.ts: enable `output: "standalone"` and set
`outputFileTracingRoot` to the monorepo root so pnpm workspace
deps are traced correctly. Remove the now-unnecessary manual
webpack externals for Node.js built-ins.
- package.json: update `files` to ship only the standalone build
output, static assets, and public dir (instead of the entire
`apps/web/` tree). Add `web:build` and `web:prepack` to the
`prepack` script so the standalone server is built and its
static/public assets are copied into place before publish. Bump
version to 2026.2.10-1.5.
- server-web-app.ts: rewrite the web app lifecycle to prefer the
pre-built standalone `server.js` in production. Add
`resolveStandaloneServerJs`, `hasStandaloneBuild`,
`hasLegacyNextBuild`, and `isInWorkspace` helpers. In dev
workspaces, fall back to building on-the-fly or legacy
`next start`. Export key functions for testability.
- server-web-app.test.ts: add comprehensive unit tests covering
path resolution, standalone/legacy build detection,
ensureWebAppBuilt scenarios (skip, disabled, dev, standalone,
legacy, missing), startWebAppIfEnabled (skip, disabled, null
config, missing dir, standalone start, missing build error,
default port, graceful stop).
- workspace-sidebar.tsx: update sidebar branding to "Ironclaw".

- Introduced a new RelationSelect component for managing relations in forms.
- Updated EntryDetailModal and ObjectTable components to utilize RelationSelect for relation fields, allowing for inline editing and improved user experience.
- Enhanced API route for fetching relation options based on user input.
- Refactored EditableCell to support relation editing with dropdowns, improving data entry efficiency.
- Added new API endpoint for fetching lightweight options for relation dropdowns.
This update streamlines the handling of relational data within the workspace, enhancing the overall functionality and user interface.
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.
