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".

- Add argv.test.ts coverage for ironclaw binary detection
Test fixes (28 failures → 0):
- Update all test assertions expecting "openclaw" CLI command output to "ironclaw"
- Fix version.test.ts package name from "openclaw" to "ironclaw"
- Fix camera/canvas temp path patterns in nodes-camera and program.nodes-media tests
- Fix pairing message, telegram bot, channels, daemon, onboard, gateway tool,
status, and profile test expectations

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.

The Next.js web app was only built inside the gateway process on first
boot. When the daemon was freshly installed (e.g. `onboard
--install-daemon`), the LaunchAgent would start and block on `next
build`, causing a noticeably slow first startup.
Add `ensureWebAppBuilt()` to `src/gateway/server-web-app.ts` — a
standalone pre-build function that checks for `.next/BUILD_ID` and runs
dep install + `next build` if missing. Skips silently when the web app
is disabled, already built, in dev mode, or inapplicable (global npm
install without `apps/web`).
Call both `ensureWebAppBuilt()` and `ensureControlUiAssetsBuilt()` before
the daemon is installed in every relevant path:
- Interactive onboarding (`onboarding.finalize.ts`) — moved the existing
Control UI build from after the daemon install to before it, and added
the web app build alongside it.
- Non-interactive onboarding (`daemon-install.ts`) — added both pre-build
calls before `service.install()`.
- Standalone `openclaw gateway install` CLI (`daemon-cli/install.ts`) —
added both pre-build calls before `service.install()`.
- Configure wizard (`configure.wizard.ts`) — added the web app build
alongside the existing Control UI build.
Updated test mocks for `ensureWebAppBuilt` in onboarding, configure
wizard, and daemon CLI coverage tests.
Bumped version to 2026.2.6-3.7 and published to npm.

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)
Add virtual folder system that surfaces Skills, Memories, and Chat sessions
in the workspace sidebar alongside real dench files. Rearchitect the home
page into a landing hub and move the ChatPanel into the workspace as the
default view.
New API route — virtual-file:
- apps/web/app/api/workspace/virtual-file/route.ts: new GET/POST API that
resolves virtual paths (~skills/*, ~memories/*) to absolute filesystem
paths in ~/.openclaw/skills/ d ~/.openclaw/workspace/. Includes path
traversal protection and directory allowlisting.
Tree API — virtual folder builders:
- apps/web/app/api/workspace/tree/route.ts: add `virtual` field to TreeNode
type. Add ildSkillsVirtualFolder() scanning ~/.openclaw/skills/ and
~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/ with SKILL.md frontmatter parsing (name +
emoji). Add buildMemoriesVirtualFolder() scanning MEMORY.md and daily
logs from ~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/. Virtual folders are appended
after real workspace entries and are also returned when no dench root
exists.
File manager tree — virtual node awareness:
- apps/web/app/components/workspace/file-manager-tree.tsx: add isVirtualNode()
helper and RESERVED_FOLDER_NAMES set (Chats, Skills, Memories). Virtual
nodes show a lock badge, disable drag-and-drop, block rename/delete, and
reject reserved names during create/rename. Add ChatBubbleIcon for ~chats/
paths.
Markdown editor — virtual path routing:
- apps/web/app/components/workspace/markdown-editor.tsx: save to
/api/workspace/virtual-file for paths starting with ~ instead of the
regular /api/workspace/file endpoint.
Home page redesign:
- apps/web/app/page.tsx: replace the chat-first layout (SidebarhatPanel)
with a branded landing page showing the OpenClaw Dench heading, tagline,
and a single "Open Workspace" CTA linking to /workspace.
Workspace page — unified layout with integrated chat:
- apps/web/app/workspace/page.tsx: ChatPanel is now the default main view
when no file is selected. Add session fetching from /api/web-sessions and
build an enhanced tree with a virtual "Chats" folder listing all sessions.
Clicking ~chats/<id> loads the session; clicking ~chats starts a new one.
Add isVirtualPath()/fileApiUrl() helpers for virtual file reads. Add a
"Back to chat" button in the top bar alongside the chat sidebar toggle.
Sidebar + empty-state cosmetic updates:
- apps/web/app/components/workspace/workspace-sidebar.tsx: rename BackIcon
to HomeIcon (house SVG), change label from "Back to Chat" to "Home".
- apps/web/app/components/workspace/empty-state.tsx: update link text from
"Back to Chat" to "Back to Home".
New libraries:
- workspace-links.ts: builders, parsers, and type guards for workspace URLs
(/workspace?path=... for files/objects, /workspace?entry=objName:id for entries).
Replaces ad-hoc relative-path links with real navigable URLs.
- search-index.ts: useSearchIndex hook that fetches a unified search index from
the API and provides Fuse.js-powered fuzzy search across files, objects, and
database entries. Exposes a stable ref-based search function safe for capture
in tiptap extensions.
New API routes:
- GET /api/workspace/search-index: builds a flat search index from the filesystem
tree (knowledge/, reports/, top-level files) and all DuckDB object entries with
display-field labels and preview fields.
- GET /api/workspace/objects/[name]/entries/[id]: fetches a single entry with
all field values, resolved relation labels, reverse relations (incoming links
from other objects), and the effective display field.
New component:
- EntryDetailModal: slide-over modal for viewing an individual entry's fields,
enum badges, user avatars, clickable relation chips (navigate to related
entries), reverse relation sections, and timestamps. Supports Escape to close
and backdrop click dismiss.
Slash command refactor (slash-command.tsx):
- New createWorkspaceMention(searchFn) replaces the old file-only @ mention with
unified search across files, objects, and entries.
- searchItemToSlashItem() converts search index items into tiptap suggestion
items with proper icons, badges (object name pill for entries), and link
insertion commands using real workspace URLs.
- Legacy createFileMention(tree) now delegates to createWorkspaceMention with a
simple substring-match fallback for when no search index is available.
Editor integration (markdown-editor.tsx, document-view.tsx):
- MarkdownEditor accepts optional searchFn prop; when provided, uses
createWorkspaceMention instead of the legacy createFileMention.
- Link click interception now uses the shared isWorkspaceLink() helper and
registers handlers in capture phase for reliable interception.
- DocumentView forwards searchFn to editor and adds a delegated click handler
in read mode to intercept workspace links and navigate via onNavigate.
Object table (object-table.tsx):
- Added onEntryClick prop; table rows are now clickable with cursor-pointer
styling, firing the callback with the entry ID.
Workspace page (page.tsx):
- Integrates useSearchIndex hook and passes search function down to editor.
- Entry detail modal state with URL synchronization (?entry=objName:id param).
- New resolveNode() with fallback strategies: exact match, knowledge/ prefix
toggle, and last-segment object name matching.
- Unified handleEditorNavigate() dispatches /workspace?entry=... to the modal
and /workspace?path=... to file/object navigation.
- URL bar syncs with activePath via router.replace (no full page reloads).
- Top-level container click safety net catches any workspace link clicks that
bubble up unhandled.
Styles (globals.css):
- Added .slash-cmd-item-badge for object-name pills in the @ mention popup.
* fix(whatsapp): convert Markdown bold/strikethrough to WhatsApp formatting
* refactor: Move `escapeRegExp` utility function to `utils.js`.

── 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.
* fix(cron): pass agentId to runHeartbeatOnce for main-session jobs
Main-session cron jobs with agentId always ran the heartbeat under
the default agent, ignoring the job's agent binding. enqueueSystemEvent
correctly routed the system event to the bound agent's session, but
runHeartbeatOnce was called without agentId, so the heartbeat ran under
the default agent and never picked up the event.
Thread agentId from job.agentId through the CronServiceDeps type,
timer execution, and the gateway wrapper so heartbeat-runner uses the
correct agent.

Previously, if one cron job had a malformed schedule expression (e.g. invalid cron syntax),
the error would propagate up and break the entire scheduler loop. This meant one misconfigured
job could prevent ALL cron jobs from running.
Changes:
- Wrap per-job schedule computation in try/catch in recomputeNextRuns()
- Track consecutive schedule errors via new scheduleErrorCount field
- Log warnings for schedule errors with job ID and name
- Auto-disable jobs after 3 consecutive schedule errors (with error-level log)
- Clear error count when schedule computation succeeds
- Continue processing other jobs even when one fails
This ensures the scheduler is resilient to individual job misconfigurations while still
providing visibility into problems through logging.

* fix(cron): re-arm timer when onTimer fires during active job execution
When a cron job takes longer than MAX_TIMER_DELAY_MS (60s), the clamped
timer fires while state.running is still true. The early return in
onTimer() previously exited without re-arming the timer, leaving no
setTimeout scheduled. This silently kills the cron scheduler until the
next gateway restart.
The fix calls armTimer(state) before the early return so the scheduler
continues ticking even when a job is in progress.
This is the likely root cause of recurring cron jobs silently skipping,
as reported in #12025. One-shot (kind: 'at') jobs were unaffected
because they typically complete within a single timer cycle.
Includes a regression test that simulates a slow job exceeding the
timer clamp period and verifies the next occurrence still fires.
* fix: update tests for timer re-arm behavior
- Update existing regression test to expect timer re-arm with non-zero
delay instead of no timer at all
- Simplify new test to directly verify state.timer is set after onTimer
returns early due to running guard
* fix: use fixed 60s delay for re-arm to prevent zero-delay hot-loop
When the running guard re-arms the timer, use MAX_TIMER_DELAY_MS
directly instead of calling armTimer() which can compute a zero delay
for past-due jobs. This prevents a tight spin while still keeping the
scheduler alive.
* style: add curly braces to satisfy eslint(curly) rule
