fix: register embedded profiles in CLI metadata on daemon start (#546)
When HindsightEmbedded(profile="myapp") starts a daemon, the profile
was never written to metadata.json or given a .env file, making it
invisible to `hindsight-embed profile list` and other CLI commands.

Add _register_profile() to DaemonEmbedManager which saves HINDSIGHT_API_*
config to ~/.hindsight/profiles/{name}.env and registers the port in
metadata.json. Called after a successful new daemon start and when the
daemon is already running, so orphaned profiles also get registered on
next use.

fix: cancel in-flight async ops when bank is deleted (#545)
* fix: cancel async ops on bank delete via CASCADE FK + heartbeat checkpoints

- Add migration e5f6g7h8i9j0: FK ON DELETE CASCADE from async_operations
  and webhooks to banks, so deleting a bank auto-removes all its ops/webhooks
- Add _check_op_alive() helper: returns False if op row was deleted (cascade)
- Add consolidation checkpoint: after each LLM batch commit, abort early if
  op was deleted mid-run (returns status='cancelled')
- Add retain checkpoint: between sub-batches, abort early if op was deleted
- _mark_operation_completed/failed/completed_and_fire_webhook: gracefully
  handle missing row (UPDATE 0) with log instead of silent error
- Thread operation_id into run_consolidation_job() for checkpoint access
- Fix y0t1u2v3w4x5 and a1b2c3d4e5f6 migrations: add IF NOT EXISTS to prevent
  failure on idempotent re-runs
- Add 10 tests covering cascade delete, _check_op_alive, graceful mark methods,
  consolidation checkpoint, and retain checkpoint

* refactor: use RETURNING + fetchrow instead of execute + string comparison

* fix: add bank upsert before async_operations FK inserts and update tests

- memory_engine.py: upsert bank in submit_async_retain before async_operations INSERT
- http.py: upsert bank in api_create_webhook before webhooks INSERT
- test_worker.py, test_async_batch_retain.py, test_webhooks.py: add _ensure_bank
  helper calls before direct async_operations/webhooks inserts to satisfy FK constraint

* fix: mock bank_utils.get_bank_profile in unit test with mocked pool

feat: add jina-mlx reranker provider for Apple Silicon (#542)
* feat: add JinaMLXCrossEncoder for native Apple Silicon reranking

Adds a new `jina-mlx` reranker provider backed by jinaai/jina-reranker-v3-mlx,
a 0.6B multilingual listwise reranker running via the MLX framework on Apple Silicon.
The model is downloaded automatically from HuggingFace Hub on first use.

Benchmarked latencies (Apple Silicon): 1 doc→32ms, 5→45ms, 10→60ms, 20→94ms.
Sub-linear scaling because all docs are ranked in a single forward pass.

- Embeds the MLX reranker implementation (_MLXReranker / _MLPProjector) directly
  in cross_encoder.py with no transformers/PyTorch dependency
- Adds `mlx`, `mlx-lm`, `safetensors` to pyproject.toml optional deps (uv add)
- Updates configuration.md with provider docs and benchmark table

* refactor: import MLXReranker from repo rerank.py instead of duplicating code

Use importlib to load MLXReranker directly from the model repo's own rerank.py
(downloaded via snapshot_download). Also pin exact minimum versions for
mlx>=0.31.0, mlx-lm>=0.31.1, safetensors>=0.6.2 (verified against installed versions).

* refactor: move MLX reranker impl to dedicated jina_mlx_reranker.py

Replaces the importlib hack with a proper module. jina_mlx_reranker.py is
adapted from jinaai/jina-reranker-v3-mlx/rerank.py (CC BY-NC 4.0) with the
source clearly documented at the top of the file.

* docs: simplify jina-mlx reranker docs

* fix: disable GIN fastupdate on source_memory_ids index to prevent deadlocks

GIN fastupdate buffers inserts in a pending list and flushes it with
AccessExclusiveLock when full. Under concurrent test load (8 xdist workers
all running retain_async), two workers can trigger a flush simultaneously
and deadlock. Recreating the index with fastupdate=off eliminates the
flush/lock cycle at the cost of slightly slower individual inserts.

* fix: drop per-bank HNSW indexes after transaction to avoid AccessExclusiveLock deadlock

When deleting a bank, the previous code dropped HNSW indexes inside the
same transaction as the DELETE FROM memory_units. Since DROP INDEX needs
AccessExclusiveLock on the parent table and DELETE holds RowExclusiveLock,
two concurrent bank deletions deadlocked on the same table lock.

Fix: capture internal_id inside the transaction, commit, then drop the
indexes outside the transaction so no row-level locks are held.

perf: replace window-function retrieval with UNION ALL + per-bank HNSW indexes (#541)
* perf: replace window-function retrieval with UNION ALL + per-bank HNSW indexes

The previous retrieve_semantic_bm25_combined() used ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION
BY fact_type ...) which forced a full sequential scan — pgvector cannot use HNSW
indexes when a window function partitions on the same column as the ORDER BY.

Changes:
- retrieval.py: rewrite to UNION ALL of per-fact_type subqueries; each arm has
  its own ORDER BY embedding <=> $1 LIMIT n, enabling partial HNSW index scans.
  Semantic arms over-fetch 5x (min 100) for HNSW approximation; trimmed in Python.
- memory_engine.py: set hnsw.ef_search=200 at pool init (persistent per-connection,
  no per-query SET/RESET overhead).
- bank_utils.py: add create_bank_hnsw_indexes / drop_bank_hnsw_indexes for
  per-(bank_id, fact_type) partial HNSW index lifecycle management.
- fact_storage.py / bank_utils.py: create per-bank indexes on fresh bank insert.
- memory_engine.py delete_bank: drop per-bank indexes via DELETE...RETURNING to
  avoid a separate round-trip.
- Migration a3b4c5d6e7f8: add interim fact_type-only partial indexes.
- Migration d5e6f7a8b9c0: add internal_id UUID UNIQUE to banks, replace
  fact_type-only indexes with per-(bank, fact_type) partial HNSW indexes, drop
  the global idx_memory_units_embedding that competed with them.

Why per-(bank, fact_type) not just per-fact_type:
The idx_memory_units_bank_id B-tree index always wins over fact_type-only partial
indexes when bank_id appears in the WHERE clause. Including bank_id in the partial
index predicate removes the B-tree from consideration and lets the planner choose
HNSW. The global HNSW index must also be dropped to avoid competing for the larger
fact_type partitions (world, observation).

* refactor: collapse two HNSW migrations into one

* refactor: generate bank internal_id in Python before insert

Instead of relying on DEFAULT gen_random_uuid() and RETURNING internal_id,
generate the UUID in application code before the INSERT. This means we
always know the value upfront and can call create_bank_hnsw_indexes
immediately without needing a DB round-trip to retrieve the assigned ID.

Also adds tests for HNSW index lifecycle and retrieve_semantic_bm25_combined.

* fix: correct migration and prevent global HNSW index recreation

Migration fixes:
- Add text() wrappers for raw SQL in d5e6f7a8b9c0 (SQLAlchemy 2.0 compat)
- Drop stale fact_type-only partial indexes (idx_mu_emb_world/observation/experience)
  that may exist from prior migrations on the same DB

migrations.py fix:
- Skip global HNSW index creation when per-bank partial HNSW indexes already
  exist on memory_units (idx_mu_emb_* pattern). Without this, the post-migration
  vector index check detects no %embedding% named index and recreates the global
  idx_memory_units_embedding, which defeats the per-bank index strategy.

Verified with EXPLAIN ANALYZE on 66K-row bank: all three fact_type arms use
their per-bank HNSW index scan (idx_mu_emb_worl/expr/obsv_<uid16>).

* fix: use correct embeddings.encode() in test

fix: resolve remaining webhook schema issues in multi-tenant retain (#533)
Follow-up to #499 which fixed the worker path and http.py but missed
two code paths in memory_engine.py:

1. `_retain_batch_async_internal` (line ~2185) still passed
   `request_context.tenant_id` which is always None for HTTP requests
   (tenant_id is never populated by the HTTP layer — the schema is
   stored in the _current_schema contextvar by _authenticate_tenant).

2. `_build_retain_outbox_callback._callback` captured the `schema`
   parameter at closure creation time. In the HTTP path, http.py builds
   the callback *before* calling retain_batch_async, but _current_schema
   is only set inside retain_batch_async by _authenticate_tenant — so
   the captured schema is always None. Fixed by resolving schema at
   callback invocation time via `schema or _current_schema.get()`.

Both issues cause `relation "webhooks" does not exist` errors that
abort the entire retain transaction in multi-tenant deployments,
silently rolling back all inserted memory data.

fix: normalize named tool_choice to required + filtered tools for OpenAI-compatible providers (#528)
LM Studio (and Ollama) reject the named tool_choice dict format
{"type": "function", "function": {"name": "..."}} with HTTP 400.

The reflect agent uses this format on iterations 0-2 to force sequential
tool selection, causing reflect to fail entirely on LM Studio.

The fix converts named tool_choice dicts to tool_choice="required" with
the tools list filtered to just the requested tool — semantically identical
and accepted by all providers including LM Studio and Ollama.

Closes #520

fix(consolidation): respect bank mission over ephemeral-state heuristic (#525)
* Add Hindsight as git subtree + BCGU noise filtering tests

Adds hindsight server source as a subtree under hindsight-api/ so we
can iterate on server-side fixes directly.

test_bcgu_noise_filtering.py proves that a well-crafted
retain_custom_instructions (BCGU_RETAIN_MISSION) can suppress
talking-head noise at fact extraction time — eliminating the need for
client-side --filter-vision-noise preprocessing.

Tests cover:
- Default mode extracts 3 noise facts from talking-head frame (problem documented)
- BCGU mission produces 0 noise facts from same talking-head frame
- BCGU mission still extracts 2 high-value ChatGPT screen facts correctly
- Mixed doc (2 talking-head + 2 screen): 0% noise ratio with BCGU mission
- Pure talking-head doc: 0 facts extracted

All 5 tests pass in ~32s using gpt-4o-mini.

* fix(consolidation): respect mission context over ephemeral-state heuristic

Two related fixes for the consolidation engine when a bank mission is
configured:

1. **Mission override for ephemeral-state filter** (`prompts.py`):
   The system prompt previously instructed the LLM to discard any fact
   that looked like "ephemeral state" (e.g. current position, transient
   actions).  When a mission is active the mission itself defines what is
   valuable — timestamped screen actions, session events, tool interactions
   may all be mission-critical even though they look ephemeral.  Added a
   MISSION OVERRIDE block that explicitly tells the LLM the mission takes
   priority over the generic ephemeral-state guidance.

2. **Remove contradictory durable-knowledge nudge** (`consolidator.py`):
   The user-prompt builder was injecting "Focus on DURABLE knowledge that
   serves this mission, not ephemeral state" alongside the mission text.
   This phrasing contradicted missions that intentionally capture
   timestamped events.  Replaced with a neutral directive that simply
   signals the mission overrides general rules.

3. **JSON control-character sanitisation** (`consolidator.py`):
   LLMs occasionally embed literal ASCII control characters (0x00–0x1f)
   inside JSON string values, causing `json.loads` to raise a
   JSONDecodeError.  Added a try/except that strips control characters
   and retries the parse before re-raising, preventing spurious failures.

* refactor(consolidation): move sanitize_llm_output to llm_wrapper, reuse in consolidator

- Add `sanitize_llm_output()` to `llm_wrapper.py` as the single canonical
  function for stripping characters that break downstream systems
  (ASCII control chars 0x00-0x08/0x0B-0x0C/0x0E-0x1F/0x7F and Unicode
  surrogates). Tab, newline, and carriage-return are preserved.
- Reduce `_sanitize_text()` in `fact_extraction.py` to a thin wrapper
  that delegates to `sanitize_llm_output()`.
- Update `consolidator.py` to import and call `sanitize_llm_output()`
  directly instead of reimplementing the logic inline.
- Remove test_bcgu_noise_filtering.py (should not have been committed).

* fix(consolidation): apply sanitize_llm_output to observation text fields

sanitize_llm_output was imported but unused after the old _call_llm_once
path was removed. The batch flow uses structured Pydantic output so
there's no raw json.loads call — instead, apply sanitization via
field_validator on _CreateAction.text and _UpdateAction.text so control
characters are stripped before observation text reaches the database.

* fix(entity-resolver): correct mention_count for new entities in batch retain

When the same entity (e.g. "Bob") appears across N items in a single batch
retain, _resolve_entities_batch_impl deduplicates them into one name group
before inserting, then queued only ONE _EntityStat regardless of N. The
flush therefore always incremented mention_count by 1 beyond the INSERT
value — giving 2 for any number of mentions.

Two-part fix:
- INSERT with mention_count=0 so the post-transaction flush is the single
  source of truth for the count (avoids an off-by-one for N=1 as well).
- Append one _EntityStat per original mention (len(g.indices)) instead of
  one per unique name, so flush_pending_stats() adds the correct total N.

This makes the batch path consistent with the single-entity path, which
already accumulates one stat per mention via entities_to_update.

feat: change tags for a document (#517)
* feat: add update document tags endpoint with observation invalidation

Adds PATCH /v1/default/banks/{bank_id}/documents/{document_id} to change
tags on a document without re-processing content.

- Updates tags on the document and all associated memory units atomically
- Invalidates observations derived from the document's memory units
- Resets consolidated_at on the document's own units for re-consolidation
- Also resets consolidated_at on co-source memories from other documents
  that shared those observations (matching delete_document behavior)
- Triggers async consolidation when observations are invalidated
- 9 new tests covering all invalidation scenarios

UI: adds inline tag editor to the document detail panel in the control plane
Docs: new "Update Document Tags" section in documents.mdx with Python/JS examples

* refactor: simplify UpdateDocumentTagsResponse to {success: true}

* refactor: make PATCH /documents generic update_document endpoint

Renames update_document_tags → update_document (engine + HTTP + clients + UI).
Currently only tags are supported; the structure is open for future fields.
Tags are the only field with side effects (observation invalidation + re-consolidation).

Fix GCS auth for Workload Identity Federation credentials (#518)
* Fix GCS auth for external_account credentials (Workload Identity)

obstore's built-in credential parsing only supports service_account and
authorized_user JSON types. Use google.auth as a credential_provider
callback to support all credential types including external_account
(Workload Identity Federation), impersonated credentials, and metadata
server credentials.

* Hide GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS during GCSStore construction

GCSStore eagerly parses the credential file from env vars even when a
custom credential_provider is passed. Temporarily unset the env var
during construction so obstore doesn't choke on external_account
credential files (Workload Identity Federation).

* Support HINDSIGHT_GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS_FILE for GCS auth

When GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS must be unset to prevent obstore
from parsing unsupported credential types (e.g. external_account),
google.auth can load credentials from HINDSIGHT_GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS_FILE
instead. This avoids mutating env vars at runtime.

* Simplify GCS credential workaround: hide env var during construction

Remove HINDSIGHT_GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS_FILE indirection. Instead, let
google.auth.default() load credentials normally via GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS,
then temporarily hide the env var during GCSStore() construction so obstore
doesn't try to parse credential types it doesn't support.

* Work around obstore bug: hide env var during GCSStore construction

obstore always parses credential files from GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS
and the well-known ADC path, even when credential_provider is supplied
(contrary to docs). This crashes on external_account credentials from
Workload Identity Federation.

Temporarily hide the env var during GCSStore() construction. google.auth
has already loaded credentials by this point via credential_provider.

  navigation (left=older, right=newer), word-level content diff view

* fix: resolve alembic migration head conflict for mental model history

* feat: mental model history tracking, side-by-side diff UI, and config flag

- Track content changes on every mental model update/refresh (persisted in JSONB history column)
- New GET /mental-models/{id}/history endpoint returning changes most-recent-first
- Side-by-side diff view in History tab (Before/After columns, line-level highlights)

feat: observation history tracking and diff UI (#513)
* feat: add source facts token limits to consolidation and recall

- Add two new configurable (per-bank) parameters:
  - consolidation_source_facts_max_tokens: total token budget for source
    facts across all observations in the consolidation prompt (-1 = unlimited)
  - consolidation_source_facts_max_tokens_per_observation: per-observation
    cap so each observation gets a fair share of source facts (-1 = unlimited,
    default 256)
- Both are also exposed as recall API parameters via SourceFactsIncludeOptions
  (max_tokens and max_tokens_per_observation)
- Consolidation now uses resolve_full_config to respect bank-level overrides
- Improve consolidation prompt: temporal metadata (occurred_start=, | Involving:)
  is now clearly separated from observation text, with a concrete example showing
  the expected synthesis style and explicit rules not to copy raw fact lines
- Add tests for recall source facts capping and consolidation config forwarding
- Expose all three new fields in the control plane bank config UI
- Document new env vars in configuration.md
- Regenerate OpenAPI spec and all SDK clients

* fix: reorder observations UI fields and rename Label Groups to Entity Labels

* fix: revert Entities section title (only rename inner label)

* doc: add consolidation source facts and batch size fields to memory-banks docs

* feat: add observation history tracking and UI diff view

- Track observation changes over time in a JSONB history column,
  appending each update's previous state (text, tags, dates, sources)
  instead of overwriting
- Add HINDSIGHT_API_ENABLE_OBSERVATION_HISTORY config flag (default: true)
  to toggle history recording
- Expose history field in get_memory_unit for observations
- Fix observations/[modelId] route that was proxying to wrong endpoint
- Add History tab in observation modal and History section in panel,
  showing word-level and tag diffs between each change (newest first)
- Extract shared ObservationHistoryView component used by both modal and panel
- Add --random-port flag to start.sh to run multiple dev instances
- Scope Next.js distDir by port to prevent lock file collisions between instances
- Restyle consolidation pending badge (rounded-md with border) and add
  inline refresh button; fix loading flicker on data refresh

* feat: dedicated observation history endpoint with source facts diff

- Add GET /memories/{id}/history endpoint returning enriched history with
  resolved source fact texts and is_new flags per change
- Deprecate history field in GET /memories/{id} (always returns empty list)
- Reconstruct cumulative source facts per history entry by working backwards
  from current state, marking newly added facts with is_new
- Replace inline history panel with "View History" button opening modal
- History modal fetches from dedicated endpoint lazily on tab switch
- Timeline view now opens MemoryDetailModal instead of side panel
- History view uses prev/next navigation (left = older, right = newer)
- Fix --random-port: pass dynamic API_PORT as HINDSIGHT_CP_DATAPLANE_API_URL
  to control plane, preserving caller values over .env

feat: per-request file parser selection with fallback chains (#514)
* feat: allow per-request file parser selection with fallback chains

Clients can now specify which parser(s) to use when calling the file
retain endpoint, instead of being locked to the server-side default.

Changes:
- `parser` field added to `FileRetainRequest` (request-level default)
  and `FileRetainMetadata` (per-file override); accepts a single name
  or an ordered fallback chain (list)
- Resolution priority: per-file > request-level > server default
- `HINDSIGHT_API_FILE_PARSER` now accepts a comma-separated fallback
  chain (e.g. `iris,markitdown`); fully backward-compatible
- New `HINDSIGHT_API_FILE_PARSER_ALLOWLIST` env var restricts which
  parsers clients may request (defaults to all registered parsers)
- Invalid/disallowed parser names are rejected with HTTP 400
- `FileParserRegistry.convert_with_fallback()` tries each parser in
  order, falling back on UnsupportedFileTypeError, empty content, or
  any other error
- Worker updated to use the fallback chain stored per-task
- OpenAPI spec and all generated clients regenerated

* fix: handle on_file_convert_complete hook and rebase onto main

- Return ConvertResult dataclass from convert_with_fallback() instead
  of a plain str, carrying both the content and the winning parser name
- Use winning_parser_name in the on_file_convert_complete hook so
  parser_name reflects the parser that actually succeeded, not the chain
- Update all test calls to submit_async_file_retain() to use the new
  per-item parser field instead of the removed top-level parser= kwarg

* docs: document HINDSIGHT_API_FILE_PARSER fallback chain and ALLOWLIST

Add on_file_convert_complete extension hook after file-to-markdown conversion (#507)
* Add file upload API with parser selection and conversion hooks

- Add FileRetainRequest.parser field for per-request parser selection
- Add FileConvertResult dataclass and on_file_convert_complete extension hook
- Fire hook after file-to-markdown conversion with output text for metering
- Fix obstore.Bytes incompatibility with httpx in Iris parser (GCS returns
  obstore.Bytes instead of plain bytes)
- Export new types from extensions __init__

* remove parser field from FileRetainRequest API

Parser selection remains server-side only via HINDSIGHT_API_FILE_PARSER config.

* test: add tests for on_file_convert_complete extension hook

Verifies that the hook is called with correct parameters on success,
called once per file for multi-file uploads, and not called when
file conversion fails.

* test: verify tenant_id propagation to on_file_convert_complete hook

fix: openclaw tests + split doc-examples CI per language (#503)
* fix: update openclaw tests to use before_prompt_build hook and split doc-examples CI per language

- Update hooks.integration.test.ts: rename describe block and all
  triggerHook calls from 'before_agent_start' to 'before_prompt_build'
  to match the hook registered in index.ts (changed in PR #480)
- Fix 'includes the user message' test: prependContext contains memories
  (bullet list), not the raw user query; update assertion accordingly
- Split test-doc-examples CI job into a matrix over [python, node, cli, go]
  so each language runs in parallel; language-specific setup steps
  (Rust/CLI build, Node.js, Python client, TypeScript client) are
  conditional on matrix.language to avoid unnecessary work

* fix: spy on HindsightClient prototype to intercept all per-bank client instances

getClientForContext creates new HindsightClient instances per bank when
dynamicBankId is true, so vi.spyOn(c, 'recall') on the default client
never captured calls. Spy on HindsightClient.prototype instead so all
dynamically created bank clients are intercepted.

fix: run schema migrations in thread to prevent event loop deadlock (#500)
When a new tenant schema is provisioned while retain/recall operations
are in-flight, run_migration() was calling synchronous migration
functions directly on the asyncio event loop. These functions execute
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY, which waits for all active transactions to
commit. But in-flight asyncpg transactions cannot flush their COMMIT
because the event loop is blocked — deadlock.

Fix: wrap all four sync migration calls in asyncio.to_thread() so they
run in the thread pool, keeping the event loop free.

Reproduced with the unfixed code: test_retain_memory timed out with
httpx.ReadTimeout when run concurrently with test_create_tenant.
All 75 integration tests pass after the fix.

fix: use correct schema name in webhook outbox callback to prevent silent transaction rollback (#499)
The retain outbox callback was passing context.tenant_id (raw UUID like
0f3ad4ec-8b88-...) instead of the PostgreSQL schema name (tenant_0f3ad4ec_...).
This caused the webhook manager to query a non-existent schema, triggering a
PostgreSQL error that silently aborted the entire retain transaction — rolling
back all inserted memory data with no clear indication of data loss.

Fixed both the async worker path (memory_engine.py) and sync HTTP path (http.py)
to use _current_schema.get() which holds the correct tenant-prefixed schema name.

Also changed fire_event_with_conn to re-raise exceptions instead of swallowing
them, since errors inside a caller's transaction poison it irreversibly.

feat(openclaw): v2 recall/retention controls, scalability fixes, and Gemini safety settings (#480)
* feat(openclaw): squash branch updates for fork PR

* revert(api): drop memory_engine query normalization from this PR

* fix(openclaw): harden hook isolation and sanitize recall logging

* chore(openclaw): gate missing-senderId notice behind debug logger

* fix(openclaw): address remaining PR review follow-ups

* fix(openclaw): address upstream review comments on isolation and tests

* feat(openclaw): prepend current timestamp to recalled memory context

* chore(openclaw): sync package-lock version to 0.4.14

* chore(openclaw): format recall timestamp as yyyy-mm-dd HH:MM

* feat(openclaw): add configurable recall context composition

- Add recallRoles config to filter which message roles are included in recall query context
- Add recallContextTurns to control how many user turns of prior context to include
- Add recallMaxQueryChars to cap composed query length
- Reduce default max_tokens from 2048 to 1024 for recall responses
- Update documentation and plugin schema with new configuration options

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(openclaw): put latest user message at end of recall query, add debug to schema

- Reorder composed recall query so latest user message is at the bottom,
  giving embedding models the most weight where it matters most
- Update truncateRecallQuery to trim oldest context lines first,
  always preserving the suffix (priority instruction + latest message)
- Add debug flag to openclaw.plugin.json schema
- Update tests to reflect new query order

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(openclaw): add verbose debug logging for recall/retain

- Log full recall query (not just first 50 chars)
- Log all raw recall results with scores and content before topK trimming
- Log retain transcript preview and document ID

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(openclaw): strip sender metadata envelope from prior context in recall query

Prior context messages passed to composeRecallQuery contained raw OpenClaw
envelope blocks (Sender/untrusted metadata JSON) which were diluting the
semantic signal of the recall query. Strip them the same way extractRecallQuery
already does for the latest message.

* fix(openclaw): add debug log for event.messages at recall time

Helps diagnose why recallContextTurns > 1 may not show extra context
by logging message count and roles available in event.messages.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(openclaw): strip sender metadata envelope from rawMessage before recall query extraction

The rawMessage from Telegram group chats arrives wrapped in a:
  ---
  Sender (untrusted metadata):
  ```json {...}```

  <actual message>
  ---

envelope. This wasn't being stripped before extractRecallQuery used it,
so the full envelope including JSON metadata was being sent as the recall
query, severely diluting semantic relevance.

* fix(openclaw): warn when recallContextTurns > 1 but event.messages is empty

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(openclaw): read messages from event.context.sessionEntry.messages for recall and retain

event.messages was always empty — the actual conversation history is at
event.context.sessionEntry.messages. Fall back to event.messages for
backwards compatibility. This fixes recallContextTurns and retain both
being unable to see the conversation history.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(openclaw): extract stripMetadataEnvelopes helper and apply to retain path

- Add shared stripMetadataEnvelopes() to strip OpenClaw sender/conversation
  metadata blocks from message content in all paths (recall query extraction,
  prior context composition, and retain transcript)
- This prevents metadata-polluted memories (name/sender ID facts) from being
  stored and ensures recall queries contain clean user text only

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(openclaw): strip metadata envelopes after channel envelope extraction too

The prompt format is: [ChannelName ...]\n<metadata envelope>\n<message>
After extracting content after [ChannelName], the metadata envelope was
still present. Now stripMetadataEnvelopes runs again after the channel
envelope extraction step.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(openclaw): switch recall hook from before_agent_start to before_prompt_build

before_prompt_build runs after session load and has messages available,
enabling recallContextTurns to work correctly. before_agent_start runs
pre-session with no messages.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(openclaw): move current time inside memory tag, simplify recall query format

- Move "Current time" line inside <hindsight_memories> so it's not exposed
  to the recall search as part of the query context
- Remove RECALL_QUERY_PRIORITY_INSTRUCTION and "Latest user message:" label
  from composed recall query — the raw message is more effective for
  semantic search without the extra prompt noise

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(openclaw): address PR review comments on bank ID fallback and memory leaks

- Add early return in deriveBankId when ctx is undefined, falling back
  to static default bank instead of generating a placeholder-filled ID
- Remove unused RECALL_QUERY_PRIORITY_INSTRUCTION dead constant
- Evict from banksWithMissionSet when evicting from clientsByBankId
  to prevent unbounded memory growth in long-running instances
- Fix integration test hook name: before_agent_start → before_prompt_build
- Fix integration test assertions to match actual composeRecallQuery output

* fix(openclaw): extract sender ID from inbound metadata blocks for bank ID derivation

Agent-phase hooks (before_prompt_build, agent_end) don't carry senderId in ctx
by design. Parse it from the "Conversation info / Sender (untrusted metadata)"
JSON blocks that OpenClaw injects into the prompt/messages instead.

- Add extractSenderIdFromText() helper that scans all metadata blocks and
  returns the first sender_id / id field found
- before_prompt_build: extract from event.prompt/rawMessage, spread into ctx
  before calling deriveBankId and getClientForContext
- agent_end: scan user messages for the metadata block, spread into effectiveCtx
  before calling deriveBankId and getClientForContext
- Gracefully skipped when senderId is already present in ctx

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(openclaw): scan messages from end for sender ID to handle group chats

When multiple users have spoken in a session, scanning from the front
returns the first sender in history rather than the one who triggered
the current agent run. Reverse the slice before finding so we always
pick the most recent user message's sender ID.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(openclaw): use event.messages for sender ID in agent_end, not sessionEntry

sessionEntry.messages is the cleaned-up history without OpenClaw's injected
metadata prefix blocks. event.messages is the raw payload that still contains
the "Conversation info (untrusted metadata)" JSON — so parse sender_id from
there instead.

Also removes the unnecessary senderIdBySession cache added in the previous
attempt, since event.messages has everything needed directly.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(openclaw): cache sender ID from before_prompt_build for use in agent_end

event.prompt in before_prompt_build contains OpenClaw's injected metadata
blocks with sender_id. event.messages in agent_end is clean history without
them — so parsing messages in agent_end never finds a sender ID.

Fix: cache the resolved sender ID (keyed by sessionKey) when it's extracted
in before_prompt_build, then look it up by sessionKey in agent_end.

* fix: resolve chunks for observation results via source_memory_ids

Observations have no direct chunk_id (they are synthesized from source
memories). When include_chunks=True and fact_type includes 'observation',
chunks were silently returned as None.

Fix collects source chunk_ids via a single JOIN on source_memory_ids,
using array_position to preserve observation rank order so observation
source chunks are interleaved at the correct position rather than
appended after all direct-fact chunks.
