There was a problem hiding this comment.
Security review blocks approval at the commit under review. Ordinary OpenClaw settlement checks runtime identity before the write phase, then performs warm-up and approval without holding the canonical sandbox lifecycle and gateway-route mutation locks. A runtime replacement or route reuse during that window can redirect an approval write; the final observation detects the change only after the authorization mutation. Hold the canonical locks, in canonical order, across target validation, warm-up/approval, and final same-device observation (or use an equivalent existing authority-fencing mutation gate), and add a deterministic race test proving no write reaches a replacement runtime.
Also address retained-artifact redaction before approval: the issue-4462 gateway-log projection omits common password, secret, cookie/set-cookie, and github_pat_ forms. Prefer a structured allowlist; otherwise expand the patterns and negative tests.
The product scope gate also needs maintainer acceptance for the canonical onboarding behavior, with ownership, lifecycle, compatibility, security, and validation expectations. Exact-commit live evidence and settled security CI remain required.

167-212: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 TrivialNote the total lock hold time under both locks.
The baseline wait and the final wait each allow
OPENCLAW_ONBOARDING_PAIRING_TIMEOUT_MS(30s). Warmup and approval add more. In the worst case the code holds the sandbox lifecycle lock and the gateway-route mutation lock for over a minute. Concurrent sandbox lifecycle work and gateway-route mutations block for that whole period.

The canonical lock ordering and structured diagnostic redaction are now fixed. Remaining blockers:
- The race test still mocks both locks and lets the target change while
runApprovalis already executing. It proves callback placement, not that the real lifecycle and route lock authorities prevent replacement or route reuse before an authorization write. Add deterministic contention coverage against the actual lock implementations, or an equivalent integration boundary, showing a competing replacement or route mutation cannot enter until settlement exits and no approval reaches replacement authority. - Linked issue #9844 remains
needs: triagewith no recorded product-scope acceptance for this canonical onboarding behavior. - No current-commit live
issue-4462-scope-upgrade-approvalevidence is recorded. Add the tested commit, scenario, result, and supporting link.
The lock acquisition itself now correctly uses lifecycle then route order and holds both across revalidation, baseline, warm-up, approval, and final observation. The allowlisted diagnostic artifact also avoids raw secret-bearing log output.

OBSERVED_REQUEST_IDSandVALIDATED_REQUEST_IDSretain every unique gateway request ID until the watcher exits. The watcher can run for up to eight hours, and the sets have no size limit, TTL, or pruning. Repeated request creation can therefore grow memory without bound and degrade the watcher.Use a bounded LRU/TTL structure or prune IDs against the live request set. Add a bounded-state regression test.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Two blockers remain. First, approval-stage diagnostics are incomplete: one handled failure branch logs only approve failed, so the allowlisted Issue 4462 artifact can omit the actionable transition. Emit a fixed stage=approval failed reason=<allowlisted-reason> event and add a fixture/parser regression for that branch.
Second, issue #9844 still has needs: triage and no maintainer scope acceptance. This PR changes supported onboarding completion behavior, so Product Scope Gate requires an accepted ownership, lifecycle, compatibility, security, and validation decision before approval.
The real lock-contention integration evidence is now sufficient, and the latest commit resolves the prior deadline, malformed ID, bounded state, bootstrap, cleanup, timeout, and watcher-execution gaps. Broad CI and current-head automated review must also settle after these blockers are addressed.

This is a Product Scope Gate decision; technical correctness and green CI cannot supply it. The PR is deferred until that decision is recorded. LOC review: +1,902 and -286 across 19 files.

Exact-head Managed Images found a real settlement-budget blocker at
Fresh OpenClaw reached sandbox Ready, launched the gateway, and applied policies, then failed because the canonical CLI device still had only baseline pairing state. The settlement controller uses one 30-second overall deadline, but its bounded warm-up child can itself consume 30 seconds and the subsequent approval pass has its own 35-second cap. When warm-up reaches its allowed bound, the controller exits before approval and final canonical observation. The repair in progress keeps the pairing-appearance, warm-up, approval, and final observation operations individually bounded while giving them explicit headroom under one fixed total cap. A fake-clock regression will prove that a child reaching its bound cannot starve approval or final observation. The managed-image failure artifact will also receive the existing bounded, credential-free stage projection; this run had generic startup signals but not enough stage detail to distinguish pending creation from watcher listing, validation, or approval.

Exact-head Managed Images at Run 32542317420 produced this split on the same candidate:
The direct warm-up removes the slow inference trigger, but the controller still shares one 30-second deadline across pairing appearance, a warm-up with its own 30-second cap, an approval pass with its own 35-second cap, and final canonical observation. The same-head pass/fail split demonstrates the remaining deadline race. Cleanup passed completely in both failed jobs. The activation job removed all five registered resources with no failures. MCP pass 1 removed its sandbox, tunnels, HTTPS servers, and compatible endpoint mock with no failures, and its credential scan passed. The append-only combined candidate now keeps the fast direct warm-up and reserves the existing bounded phase budgets under one fixed total cap. It also reuses the bounded, credential-free pairing-stage diagnostics for managed-image onboarding failures. That candidate is undergoing final exact-base review before publication. Do not rerun |

## Summary Fresh default-profile OpenClaw onboarding could report success while canonical CLI device pairing was incomplete. This replacement is based on current `main` and incorporates the final reviewed #9847 behavior plus the version 1 journal upgrade repair found during replacement review. ## Related Issue Fixes #9844 Replaces #9847 ## Changes - Require exactly one canonical local CLI operator device with the baseline scopes and no same-device pending request before fresh OpenClaw onboarding succeeds. Settlement uses fixed phase budgets, lifecycle and gateway-route locks, runtime identity revalidation, and a resumable incomplete result. - Keep Portable settlement strict, allow the supported ordinary policy-skip path, leave Hermes and Deep Agents outside this gate, and use the validated recreate-journal handoff only for inner rebuild onboarding. - Use a direct tagged gateway probe for request creation and pairing-only stored-device authentication for settlement reads. The probe has its own 5-second subprocess timeout, leaving headroom for the settlement poll within the 30-second outer cap. Each child removes ambient shared gateway and pairing overrides. The direct probe sets forced device pairing only on its command, and settlement reads set the pairing-only stored-auth marker. Bootstrap and approval retain separate bounded credential paths. - Publish pending, paired, and stored CLI authentication state through one recoverable version 2 journal. Approval fails closed on scope, token-binding, recovery, or journal-clear failures. Locked reads migrate a validated version 1 idle journal or recover its interrupted prepared or committed pairing state before publishing the version 2 idle form. - Run the post-rebuild OpenClaw doctor through bounded OpenShell execution without direct-container fallback. An inconclusive transport cannot authorize rebuild success. - Emit fixed watcher stages, reject malformed request IDs without disclosure, and persist only anchored, allowlisted pairing diagnostics before sandbox cleanup. Register strict inference-routing cleanup before onboarding. - Document fresh OpenClaw pairing readiness and journal version 2 recovery in the owning quickstart and security review. - Increase the CLI shard job budget from 15 to 30 minutes and pin that workflow contract because the pairing and journal suites exceed the previous budget on CI runners. - During Docker final handoff, accept an OpenShell `Error` row only after the replacement was deliberately stopped and an exact Docker query confirms it is the sole remaining OpenShell-labeled container for that sandbox. Query failure, missing or ambiguous matches, noncanonical container IDs, and an exhausted lifecycle deadline remain fail-closed. ## Type of Change - [ ] Code change (feature, bug fix, or refactor) - [x] Code change with doc updates - [ ] Doc only (prose changes, no code sample modifications) - [ ] Doc only (includes code sample changes) ## Quality Gates - [x] Tests added or updated for changed behavior - [ ] Existing tests cover changed behavior, justification: - [ ] Tests not applicable, justification: - [x] Sensitive paths changed (security, policy, credentials, preflight, onboarding, inference, runner, sandbox, or messaging) - [x] Sensitive-path review completed or maintainer-approved waiver recorded, reviewer/approval link/justification: Product scope was accepted by a maintainer on [#9844](#9844 (comment)).

Summary
Fresh default-profile OpenClaw onboarding could report success after best-effort pairing work even when no canonical local CLI device had settled. This change waits for one matching device with baseline operator scopes and no same-device pending request, pauses onboarding resumably when the bounded check fails, and captures credential-free structured stage diagnostics for the issue 4462 live target.
The root cause was that finalization discarded warm-up and approval outcomes, then treated dashboard health as sufficient. Existing tests checked call ordering but did not assert the canonical paired-device state, and failure evidence did not identify the pairing stage.

docs-updateddocs/get-started/quickstart.mdxfor fresh default-profile OpenClaw pairing readiness. Independently reviewed the complete PR diff throughed6982323, the full quickstart page, security owner text, intended PR body, comments, test titles, agent scope, settlement behavior, diagnostics, journal version 2 recovery, token binding, credential lifetime, and cleanup against the documentation guide, writing rules, shared review contract, controlled terminology, and product-scope gate. Approval now publishes pending, paired, and stored-auth state through one recoverable journal and cannot report success while token-bearing journal snapshots remain. Supplied focused, E2E-support, integration, real-pinned, rebuild, growth, build, typecheck, syntax, formatting, repository, secret, commit, diff, docs, and merged-base validations passed. The pre-merge and current-main-relative binary diffs are identical with SHA-2561058a6123174bdd00792523320e87d40c15b8f2c68120525fc95d76400622deaand stable patch ID5de76ee8667181485ba1885e22881880b384e910.The exact follow-up review confirmed that signed merge commit
abd8b41b674198c8ba03999ea09ef9d285d83b02preserves the accepted transactional credential hardening byte-for-byte with stable patch ID8f8f5e056; all 45 PR-path blobs match, and the disjoint current-main updates have zero path overlap. The transaction now requires unique allowlisted stored-auth and paired scope equality during publication and recovery, while retaining one canonical approval write and excluding token values from output. Exact-final validation passed 91 tests, the prior focused and pinned real-distribution suites, CLI type-checking, repository checks,git diff --check, and normal hooks.Signed-off-by: Rebecca Sliter 571084+rsliter@users.noreply.github.com
