Extract shared normalization/coercion helpers into private @openclaw/normalization-core workspace package while preserving existing plugin SDK helper subpaths.\n\nAlso keeps direct normalization-core imports internal, wires UI/build/loader resolution, and replaces the slow PR network CodeQL lane with a fast added-line boundary scan while retaining full CodeQL for scheduled/manual runs.\n\nVerification: local moved tests, plugin SDK boundary tests, extension loader tests, agents-support shard, UI build/test, build artifacts, lint, workflow guards, autoreview, and GitHub CI passed on PR head 963d893715.
Extract web-content shared runtime helpers into packages/web-content-core, move the focused tests with the new package, and split quiet CI shards so the node matrix no longer stalls past the no-output watchdog.\n\nVerification: node scripts/run-vitest.mjs test/scripts/ci-node-test-plan.test.ts test/scripts/run-vitest.test.ts src/infra/restart.test.ts src/infra/os-summary.test.ts src/infra/gateway-processes.test.ts src/infra/inline-option-token.test.ts src/infra/map-size.test.ts src/infra/machine-name.test.ts src/commands/doctor-whatsapp-responsiveness.test.ts; autoreview clean; manual CI https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/actions/runs/26693962844; dependency guard https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/actions/runs/26693959937. Admin merge used because optional Mantis Telegram Desktop proof was cancelled after blocking merge outside this PR's required proof.
Move model catalog normalization and package-owned catalog schema/types into model-catalog-core while keeping public plugin SDK model catalog declarations on the existing SDK surface. Verified focused tests, package-boundary compile, full build, changed gate, declaration leak grep, CI, and autoreview.
Move model catalog ref helpers into @openclaw/model-catalog-core/model-catalog-refs and update internal callers/package-boundary aliases. Also fix the timestamp predicate typing that blocked prod type checks on current main.
* refactor: extract model catalog core package
* refactor: route model catalog imports through package boundary
* build: include model catalog in plugin sdk package dts
* fix: preserve static fallback model metadata
* TypeScript: add extensions to tsconfig and fix type errors
- Add extensions/**/* to tsconfig.json includes
- Export ProviderAuthResult, AnyAgentTool from plugin-sdk
- Fix optional chaining for messageActions across channels
- Add missing type imports (MSTeamsConfig, GroupPolicy, etc.)
- Add type annotations for provider auth handlers
- Fix undici/fetch type compatibility in zalo proxy
- Correct ChannelAccountSnapshot property usage
- Add type casts for tool registrations
- Extract usage view styles and types to separate files
* TypeScript: fix optional debug calls and handleAction guards
* fix: use .js extension for ESM imports of RoutePeerKind
The imports incorrectly used .ts extension which doesn't resolve
with moduleResolution: NodeNext. Changed to .js and added 'type'
import modifier.
* fix tsconfig
* refactor: unify peer kind to ChatType, rename dm to direct
- Replace RoutePeerKind with ChatType throughout codebase
- Change 'dm' literal values to 'direct' in routing/session keys
- Keep backward compat: normalizeChatType accepts 'dm' -> 'direct'
- Add ChatType export to plugin-sdk, deprecate RoutePeerKind
- Update session key parsing to accept both 'dm' and 'direct' markers
- Update all channel monitors and extensions to use ChatType
BREAKING CHANGE: Session keys now use 'direct' instead of 'dm'.
Existing 'dm' keys still work via backward compat layer.
* fix tests
* test: update session key expectations for dmdirect migration
- Fix test expectations to expect :direct: in generated output
- Add explicit backward compat test for normalizeChatType('dm')
- Keep input test data with :dm: keys to verify backward compat
* fix: accept legacy 'dm' in session key parsing for backward compat
getDmHistoryLimitFromSessionKey now accepts both :dm: and :direct:
to ensure old session keys continue to work correctly.
* test: add explicit backward compat tests for dmdirect migration
- session-key.test.ts: verify both :dm: and :direct: keys are valid
- getDmHistoryLimitFromSessionKey: verify both formats work
* feat: backward compat for resetByType.dm config key
* test: skip unix-path Nix tests on Windows
The previous migration to tsdown was reverted because it caused a ~20x slowdown when running OpenClaw from the repo. @hyf0 investigated and found that simply renaming the `dist` folder also caused the same slowdown. It turns out the Plugin script loader has a bunch of voodoo vibe logic to determine if it should load files from source and compile them, or if it should load them from dist. When building with tsdown, the filesystem layout is different (bundled), and so some files weren't in the right location, and the Plugin script loader decided to compile source files from scratch using Jiti.
The new implementation uses tsdown to embed `NODE_ENV: 'production'`, which we now use to determine if we are running OpenClaw from a "production environmen" (ie. from dist). This removes the slop in favor of a deterministic toggle, and doesn't rely on directory names or similar.
There is some code reaching into `dist` to load specific modules, primarily in the voice-call extension, which I simplified into loading an "officially" exported `extensionAPI.js` file. With tsdown, entry points need to be explicitly configured, so we should be able to avoid sloppy code reaching into internals from now on. This might break some existing users, but if it does, it's because they were using "private" APIs.
