Selective E2E evidence — exact PR head

Requesting changes on 4fe9f99ccb6257da887b42069a05ff3330c77aaa for two P2 regressions in the fail-closed session-evidence contract from #10978:
- Malformed provider-message content can authorize a retry.
- A provider error returns retry eligibility before later appended messages are validated.
Both findings are reproduced with the actual embedded OPENCLAW_SESSION_EVIDENCE_SCRIPT, using fresh baselines and session files. These cases must remain non-retryable; a successful second attempt can otherwise hide invalid first-session evidence. The inline comments describe the required changes and regression cases.

Validation: 150 focused E2E-support tests passed; 37 Linux-only tests were skipped on macOS with Node 25.9.0. One local socket test required an isolated rerun outside the execution sandbox. PR CI and the existing live OpenClaw security job passed for this candidate. Those passing checks do not cover the invalid combinations above.
The earlier forwarding changes are absent from the current diff. These findings concern E2E qualification and failure classification.

Approved commit 49e86588c9ee1146e525b9e597355fb05b8269d9. No blocking findings remain after reviewing the complete change and its repairs.
The two findings from my earlier review are resolved: malformed provider content is rejected, and the complete appended sequence is validated before granting retry eligibility. The subsequent Advisor findings are also resolved: policy and permission denials remain non-retryable, and a provider error recorded just before TUI exit receives a final evidence check.
Validation:
- 155 focused tests passed locally; 37 Linux-only cases were skipped on macOS.
- The retained results from CI run 34329071555 confirm all 77 tests across the three launch/provider support files passed on Linux, including all seven immediate-exit producer-to-retry cases.
- Direct verifier and deterministic timing reproductions confirm the reported failures are fixed while valid transient outages remain retryable.
- Current PR CI is green. All nine reports from Advisor run 34330553633 contain no findings. The Architecture review completed successfully on attempt 2, completing the previously missing evidence.
Security review: PASS across all nine repository categories. Retry remains bounded, requires successful cleanup, and uses a fresh run ID and inputs. Workflow permissions and credential boundaries are preserved.
This approval supersedes my earlier request for changes.

Reconfirming approval of 49e86588c9ee1146e525b9e597355fb05b8269d9 after the requested live E2E validation.
E2E run 34339706126, attempt 1, succeeded. All eight selected suites passed across nine executions. The retained results contain 14 passed tests, 0 failures, and 2 intentional skips.
| Execution | Result |
|---|---|
| Full E2E | PASS |
| Security posture — OpenClaw | PASS |
| Security posture — Hermes | PASS |
| Cloud onboarding | PASS |
| Cloud inference | PASS |
| Inference routing | PASS: 5 passed, 2 skipped |
| OpenClaw provider switching | PASS |
| Network policy | PASS |
| Gateway crash recovery | PASS |
Verified the immutable dispatch receipt, candidate SHA and correlation ID in all nine result artifacts, and the eight catalogue evidence manifests. All 44 recorded cleanup operations passed. Docker credential cleanup succeeded in all nine jobs; cloud onboarding also removed its raw traces.
Full E2E and OpenClaw security posture each completed the readiness probe and both launch sessions with exit code 0 and no timeout. Neither live scenario needed a provider retry. The passing Linux CI run supplies the deterministic outage, rejection, cleanup-failure, and immediate-child-exit evidence reviewed earlier.
The two skipped inference-routing cases are the existing runtime identity refresh scenarios: the pinned OpenShell 0.0.106 qualification declares that projection unsupported. They provide no runtime identity refresh evidence in this run.
This focused Linux run does not qualify the separate macOS, portable-launch, or staging Launchable workflows. The trusted main planner retains its existing 75-minute enclosing job budget; the proposed 115-minute budget remains covered by deterministic workflow tests.

Outcome
OpenClaw security E2E launch turns now retry one positively classified transient hosted-inference outage in a fresh session after a one-second backoff. Authentication, authorization, policy, malformed-response, cleanup, and unknown failures continue to fail closed without retrying.
Reason
A transient NVIDIA hosted-inference
ServiceUnavailableErrorcan leave the launch session with a structured error assistant record even though the security posture itself did not fail. This made the live security lane fail for an external provider availability event instead of retrying once with bounded behavior.Related issues

This PR is intentionally limited to the E2E harness behavior needed by #10978. The earlier OpenShell forwarding/recovery changes and documentation were removed because #11157 already resolved #11084 under the accepted process-agnostic forwarding scope.
The retry classifier is fail-closed. The in-sandbox verifier is the sole source of provider-outage eligibility, and the shell producer emits the run-bound marker only after successful cleanup. TypeScript schedules the bounded retry only for that exact final marker.
