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

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.
── 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.
* macOS: honor Nix defaults suite; auto launch in Nix mode
Fixes repeated onboarding in Nix deployments by detecting nixMode from the stable defaults suite (ai.openclaw.mac) and bridging key settings into the current defaults domain.
Also enables LaunchAgent autostart by default in Nix mode (escape hatch: openclaw.nixAutoLaunchAtLogin=false).
* macOS: keep Nix mode fix focused
Drop the automatic launch-at-login behavior from the Nix defaults patch; keep this PR scoped to reliable nixMode detection + defaults bridging.
* macOS: simplify nixMode fix
Remove the defaults-bridging helper and rely on a single, stable defaults suite (ai.openclaw.mac) for nixMode detection when running as an app bundle. This keeps the fix focused on onboarding suppression and rename churn resilience.
* macOS: fix nixMode defaults suite churn (#12205)
* refactor: update cron job wake mode and run mode handling
- Changed default wake mode from 'next-heartbeat' to 'now' in CronJobEditor and related CLI commands.
- Updated cron-tool tests to reflect changes in run mode, introducing 'due' and 'force' options.
- Enhanced cron-tool logic to handle new run modes and ensure compatibility with existing job structures.
- Added new tests for delivery plan consistency and job execution behavior under various conditions.
- Improved normalization functions to handle wake mode and session target casing.
This refactor aims to streamline cron job configurations and enhance the overall user experience with clearer defaults and improved functionality.
* test: enhance cron job functionality and UI
- Added tests to ensure the isolated agent correctly announces the final payload text when delivering messages via Telegram.
- Implemented a new function to pick the last deliverable payload from a list of delivery payloads.
- Enhanced the cron service to maintain legacy "every" jobs while minute cron jobs recompute schedules.
- Updated the cron store migration tests to verify the addition of anchorMs to legacy every schedules.
- Improved the UI for displaying cron job details, including job state and delivery information, with new styles and layout adjustments.
These changes aim to improve the reliability and user experience of the cron job system.
* test: enhance sessions thinking level handling
- Added tests to verify that the correct thinking levels are applied during session spawning.
- Updated the sessions-spawn-tool to include a new parameter for overriding thinking levels.
- Enhanced the UI to support additional thinking levels, including "xhigh" and "full", and improved the handling of current options in dropdowns.
These changes aim to improve the flexibility and accuracy of thinking level configurations in session management.
* feat: enhance session management and cron job functionality
- Introduced passthrough arguments in the test-parallel script to allow for flexible command-line options.
- Updated session handling to hide cron run alias session keys from the sessions list, improving clarity.
- Enhanced the cron service to accurately record job start times and durations, ensuring better tracking of job execution.
- Added tests to verify the correct behavior of the cron service under various conditions, including zero-delay timers.
These changes aim to improve the usability and reliability of session and cron job management.
* feat: implement job running state checks in cron service
- Added functionality to prevent manual job runs if a job is already in progress, enhancing job management.
- Updated the `isJobDue` function to include checks for running jobs, ensuring accurate scheduling.
- Enhanced the `run` function to return a specific reason when a job is already running.
- Introduced a new test case to verify the behavior of forced manual runs during active job execution.
These changes aim to improve the reliability and clarity of cron job execution and management.
* feat: add session ID and key to CronRunLogEntry model
- Introduced `sessionid` and `sessionkey` properties to the `CronRunLogEntry` struct for enhanced tracking of session-related information.
- Updated the initializer and Codable conformance to accommodate the new properties, ensuring proper serialization and deserialization.
These changes aim to improve the granularity of logging and session management within the cron job system.
* fix: improve session display name resolution
- Updated the `resolveSessionDisplayName` function to ensure that both label and displayName are trimmed and default to an empty string if not present.
- Enhanced the logic to prevent returning the key if it matches the label or displayName, improving clarity in session naming.
These changes aim to enhance the accuracy and usability of session display names in the UI.
* perf: skip cron store persist when idle timer tick produces no changes
recomputeNextRuns now returns a boolean indicating whether any job
state was mutated. The idle path in onTimer only persists when the
return value is true, eliminating unnecessary file writes every 60s
for far-future or idle schedules.
* fix: prep for merge - explicit delivery mode migration, docs + changelog (#10776) (thanks @tyler6204)
- Add forceReload option to ensureLoaded to avoid stat I/O in normal
paths while still detecting cross-service writes in the timer path
- Post isolated job summary back to main session (restores the old
isolation.postToMainPrefix behavior via delivery model)
- Update legacy migration tests to check delivery.channel instead of
payload.channel (normalization now moves delivery fields to top-level)
- Remove legacy deliver/channel/to/bestEffortDeliver from payload schema
- Update protocol conformance test for delivery modes
- Regenerate GatewayModels.swift (isolation -> delivery)
- Enhanced the delivery configuration logic in CronJobEditor to explicitly set the bestEffort property based on job settings.
- Refactored the CLI command to streamline delivery object creation, ensuring proper handling of optional fields like channel and to.
- Improved code readability and maintainability by restructuring delivery assignment logic.
This update clarifies the delivery configuration process, enhancing the reliability of job settings in both the editor and CLI.
- Updated isolated cron jobs to support new delivery modes: `announce` and `none`, improving output management.
- Refactored job configuration to remove legacy fields and streamline delivery settings.
- Enhanced the `CronJobEditor` UI to reflect changes in delivery options, including a new segmented control for delivery mode selection.
- Updated documentation to clarify the new delivery configurations and their implications for job execution.
- Improved tests to validate the new delivery behavior and ensure backward compatibility with legacy settings.
This update provides users with greater flexibility in managing how isolated jobs deliver their outputs, enhancing overall usability and clarity in job configurations.
