Outcome

A fresh OpenClaw sandbox on nvidia-prod no longer onboards clean and then fails its first status
with an unexplained HTTP 404. Onboarding now sends the same Chat Completions smoke every other
OpenAI-completions remote provider already sends, so an unusable model is caught while reselection can
still recover it. When a 404 does reach status, the row names the request that failed and the cause
behind it.

Before:

Inference: unhealthy (https://inference.local/v1/models)
  Inference gateway did not serve an inference request: sandbox inference invocation probe returned HTTP 404.
Inference (route reachability): reachable (https://inference.local/v1/models)

After:

Inference: unhealthy (https://inference.local/v1/chat/completions)
  Inference gateway did not serve an inference request: sandbox inference invocation probe returned
  HTTP 404: Model 'nvidia/nemotron-3-super-120b-a12b' not found — it is in the NVIDIA Build catalog
  but is not deployed for your account. Pick a different model, or check the model card on
  https://build.nvidia.com to see if it requires org-level access.
Inference (route reachability): reachable (HTTP 404) (https://inference.local/v1/models)

Reason

REMOTE_PROVIDER_CONFIG.build registers nvidia-prod with OpenShell provider type "nvidia"
(src/lib/onboard/providers.ts:126). shouldSmokeOpenAiLikeOnboardRoute
(src/lib/inference/onboard-probes.ts:1157) allowlists nvidia-nim and nvidia-router by name and
otherwise requires providerType === "openai" | "openrouter", which "nvidia" does not match.
nvidia-prod was therefore the only OpenAI-completions remote provider whose onboarding never sent a
Chat Completions request — verified by executing the predicate: it returns false for nvidia-prod
and true for nvidia-nim, nvidia-router, openai-api, openrouter-api, gemini-api,
compatible-endpoint. A model that is in the public NVIDIA Build catalog but is not deployed for the
caller's account passes the catalog GET /v1/models, passes inference set --no-verify, passes the
in-sandbox /v1/models check that accepts any status under 500, and first fails at status.

status could not explain the failure either:

  • buildInvokedRouteHealth labelled the row with gateway.endpoint (the models route) even though the
    failing request was POST /v1/chat/completions, which is why the report reads as a models-route fault.
  • The non-2xx body was discarded before isNvcfFunctionNotFoundForAccount — a classifier this repo has
    owned since fix(onboard): NVIDIA Endpoints model selection has 4 broken probe behaviors causing misleading errors and hung wizard #1601 — could read it. It had never been reachable from status, start, or readiness.
  • reachableRouteSubprobe hardcoded ok: true, okLabel: "reachable", and printInferenceProbeLine
    drops detail on the ok branch, so the models-route HTTP code was erased. Driving
    buildSandboxInferenceRouteHealth with httpStatus 200 vs 404 and an identical failing invocation
    produced byte-identical rendered output, so route reachability: reachable in the report does not
    establish that the models route answered 2xx.

Related issues

Fixes #10879
Relates to #10543 — shares the onboarding blind spot, but is the opposite hop (/v1/models 404 with a
successful invocation) and is not fixed here.

Changes

  • src/lib/inference/onboard-probes.ts — allowlist nvidia-prod alongside nvidia-nim and
    nvidia-router in shouldSmokeOpenAiLikeOnboardRoute. Protected by
    test/onboarding/onboard-smoke-verifier.test.ts.
  • src/lib/actions/sandbox/inference-invocation-probe.ts — the probe script classifies a 404 inside
    the sandbox
    and prints a single fixed marker token; only that constant can cross the boundary, never
    the body it matched. Node compares the marker by exact full-line equality and appends
    nvcfFunctionNotFoundMessage(model). The result now also carries the endpoint that was requested.
    This preserves the [Ubuntu 24.04][Sandbox] Deep Agents nemoclaw <dcode-sb> rebuild is non-atomic — destroys sandbox before validating recreate config (sibling OpenClaw fix does not cover langchain-deepagents-code) #6195 contract and the published "Status diagnostics do not include the response
    body" guarantee, both of which a redacted body slice would have broken.
  • src/lib/actions/sandbox/inference-route-health.ts — the failing row reports
    invocation.endpoint ?? gateway.endpoint; the reachability subprobe stays green (the route did
    answer, per fix(cli): report inference health from a served request #8731) but its label carries the code for any non-2xx models route.
  • src/lib/inference/nvcf-model-access.ts (new) — the NVCF classifier moves out of validation.ts to
    the inference layer that owns both callers, so the probe does not add a 25th importer to
    validation.ts. validation.ts re-exports for its existing consumers. Net ratchet effect:
    validation.ts fan-in 24 → 23; src/lib/inference root files 63 → 64.
  • Docs: verify-inference-route.mdx and understand-provider-validation.mdx. Line 39
    ("Status diagnostics do not include the response body") is unchanged and still true.
  • Tests: 11 added or updated across the probe, route health, onboarding gate, and status --json.

Verification

  • npx vitest run over the 12 directly affected suites — 346 passed, including
    validation, onboard-probes, inference-invocation-probe, inference-route-health,
    status-snapshot-inference-health, status-inference, status-flow,
    launch-readiness-gateway-health, start, rebuild-dcode-preflight, inference-set-provider,
    onboard-smoke-verifier
  • npx vitest run test/cli/sandbox-status-json.test.ts test/cli/sandbox-status-text.test.ts after
    npm run build:cli on this branch — 28 passed; the new --json case asserts the classified
    detail and the /v1/chat/completions endpoint through the real CLI
  • Generated probe script executed under /bin/sh with a stubbed curl — classifies the NVCF body,
    stays silent on a plain 404 page not found, emits no canary from a 500 body, still streams the 2xx
    body for shape validation; sh -n clean
  • npm run typecheck — pass
  • npm run checks:repository — pass (source-architecture budget, layer boundaries, vitest project
    membership, test title style)
  • npm run source-shape:check, npm run test-size:check, npm run test:titles:check,
    npm run test:projects:check — pass
  • npx oxfmt --check, npx oxlint, bash scripts/check-spdx-headers.sh on all changed files — pass
  • npx commitlint --from origin/main --to HEAD — 0 problems
  • Regression baseline: src/lib/onboard/ is 51 failed / 8836 passed on both this branch and
    unmodified origin/main
    on this machine (the pre-existing patchStagedDockerfile corporate-CA
    family). The 5 files failing under src/lib/actions/sandbox/ + src/lib/inference/
    (gateway-state-hints, gateway-state-drift, serving/resolver, llama-cpp/managed-selection,
    vllm-models) also fail on baseline and are unrelated to inference routing.
  • No secrets, API keys, or credentials in the diff.

Review notes

  • Contract changes maintainers should weigh. (1) SandboxInferenceInvocationResult gains an
    optional endpoint, so a failing status row and its --json output now name
    /v1/chat/completions rather than /v1/models; the 401/403 integration case was updated to match.
    (2) The route reachability label becomes reachable (HTTP <code>) for a non-2xx models route. This
    keeps fix(cli): report inference health from a served request #8731's intent — the hop stays green because the route did answer — while restoring the code
    that made it interpretable. (3) nvidia-prod onboarding now performs a Chat Completions request; the
    capability cache makes it a no-op in the normal flow, but it will now fail onboarding for a model the
    credential cannot invoke, which is the intended behavior change.
  • Scope. This makes the failure detectable and explainable at onboarding; it cannot make an
    unentitled model invocable. If the gateway's stored credential genuinely cannot invoke the model,
    status reporting unhealthy remains correct.
  • Not fixed here, tracked separately. The invocation curl is not hardened with -q /
    --cacert "$CA_BUNDLE" the way the models probe at connect-inference-route-probe.ts:33 is. A
    missing -q lets ~/.curlrc redirect the POST and is an independent 404 vector; --cacert cannot
    produce a 404. Also unchanged: verify-deployment.ts still accepts any status under 500 on the
    in-sandbox /v1/models check (fix(onboard): report an unhealthy inference route as not ready #6862), and the sandbox-side smoke stays gated to
    compatible-endpoint (fix(onboard): validate compatible endpoint sandbox route #10531) — broadening either is the shared fix with [Ubuntu 24.04][Onboard] onboarding claims a healthy inference route and exits 0 for an OpenClaw openrouter-api sandbox that status reports unhealthy on /v1/models 404 #10543 and needs a
    maintainer scope decision.
  • Local hooks. prek cannot install on this machine (the release download host returns HTTP 503),
    so npm run validate:pr could not run. The equivalent checks were run directly and are listed above.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved inference health reporting by identifying the specific endpoint involved in failures.
    • Route checks now display HTTP status codes for non-successful responses, including 404 errors.
    • NVIDIA Build account-access errors are detected and reported with clearer, model-specific guidance.
    • Diagnostics now sanitize upstream response details while preserving useful failure information.
    • Added NVIDIA production endpoint coverage to onboarding smoke validation.
  • Documentation

    • Clarified NVIDIA endpoint validation behavior and inference-health results, including failure, authorization, availability, and reachability reporting.

…cause

A fresh OpenClaw sandbox on nvidia-prod completed onboarding and then failed the
next `status` with a bare "invocation probe returned HTTP 404", pointing at the
models route it had not requested.

nvidia-prod registers as OpenShell provider type "nvidia", which the
providerType allowlist in shouldSmokeOpenAiLikeOnboardRoute does not match, so
it was the only OpenAI-completions remote provider whose onboarding never sent a
Chat Completions request. A model that is in the NVIDIA Build catalog but not
deployed for the account therefore onboarded clean and first failed at status.
Status could not explain it either: the invocation row reported the models
endpoint, the 404 body was discarded before the NVCF classifier the onboarding
probe already owns could read it, and the route-reachability subprobe rendered a
404 models route as a bare "reachable".

Smoke nvidia-prod during onboarding like nvidia-nim and nvidia-router, so the
failure surfaces where model reselection can still recover it. Classify a 404
inside the sandbox and emit only a fixed marker token, so the detail names the
account-entitlement cause while status diagnostics still carry no response body
(#6195). Report the endpoint the invocation actually requested instead of the
models route, and carry the models-route status in the reachability label for
any non-2xx answer. Move the NVCF classifier out of validation.ts into the
inference layer that owns both callers; validation.ts fan-in drops 24 to 23.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds shared NVCF account-access detection, reports selected inference endpoints, improves route-health status labels, extends NVIDIA onboarding smoke validation, and adds regression coverage and documentation.

Changes

Inference route validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
NVCF access helpers and onboarding validation
src/lib/inference/nvcf-model-access.ts, src/lib/validation.ts, src/lib/inference/onboard-probes.ts, test/onboarding/*, docs/inference/understand-provider-validation.mdx, ci/source-architecture-budget.json
NVCF detection and message generation now use a dedicated module. nvidia-prod uses /v1/chat/completions during onboarding validation.
Sandbox invocation classification and endpoint reporting
src/lib/actions/sandbox/inference-invocation-probe.ts, src/lib/actions/sandbox/inference-invocation-probe.test.ts
The sandbox recognizes NVCF account-specific 404 responses through a fixed marker. Probe failures report the selected endpoint and sanitized model details.
Route health aggregation and reporting
src/lib/actions/sandbox/inference-route-health.ts, src/lib/actions/sandbox/inference-route-health.test.ts, docs/inference/verify-inference-route.mdx
Invocation failures report their request endpoint. Non-2xx reachable models routes include the HTTP status. 2xx routes retain reachable.
CLI status fixtures and entitlement coverage
test/cli/helpers.ts, test/cli/sandbox-status-json.test.ts
Test stubs support classified probe output. CLI status tests cover NVCF entitlement failures and endpoint-specific authorization reporting.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 5e249

This change validates NVIDIA model invocation during onboarding and improves status diagnostics with endpoint-specific, sanitized failure details. No concrete current-head merge-blocking risk remains.

…ifier

Review found the shell rule added for the status probe was case-sensitive with
literal spaces while `isNvcfFunctionNotFoundForAccount` matches case-insensitively
with `\s`. A body such as `Function 'id': not FOUND for ACCOUNT 'x'` was therefore
classified during onboarding but reached `status` as a bare HTTP 404 — two
reachable classification contracts that could diverge.

Give `nvcf-model-access.ts` both forms of the one contract: the TypeScript
predicate and the POSIX ERE plus match flags the sandbox needs, with the marker
token alongside them. The probe now consumes those instead of owning a second
pattern.

Also preserve the endpoint when `runSandboxInferenceInvocationProbe` handles a
thrown probe error, so an abnormal probe no longer reports the models route as
the failing object.

Tests execute the generated probe command under `/bin/sh` with a stub curl and
assert host/sandbox parity across canonical, case-variant, and extra-whitespace
NVCF bodies, that a generic 404 stays unclassified, and that a 500 body still
cannot reach the output. The onboarding smoke test now drives
`verifyOnboardInferenceSmoke` itself and asserts nvidia-prod issues a Chat
Completions request; it fails without the selector change. Documentation now
scopes the endpoint and reachability statements to the paths that produce them.

Pushed f0dc2257f addressing the review. Thanks — the parity finding was a real defect I introduced.

Case-sensitivity mismatch (raised by CodeRabbit's sibling finding and by the Architecture, Customer-value, Migration-completion, and Verification specialists). Confirmed before fixing:

body: Function 'abc': not FOUND for ACCOUNT 'xyz'
  host isNvcfFunctionNotFoundForAccount  -> true
  sandbox grep -qE  "...: *Not found for account"  -> false
  sandbox grep -qiE "...:[[:space:]]*Not found..."  -> true

nvcf-model-access.ts now owns both forms of the one contract — the TypeScript predicate plus NVCF_FUNCTION_NOT_FOUND_SHELL_ERE, NVCF_FUNCTION_NOT_FOUND_SHELL_MATCH_ARGS (-qiE) and NVCF_FUNCTION_NOT_FOUND_MARKER. The probe consumes them instead of carrying a second pattern, and the comment that wrongly claimed the two already matched is gone. [[:space:]] mirrors \s.

The parity tests now execute the generated command under /bin/sh with a stub curl rather than injecting the marker: canonical, case-variant, and extra-whitespace NVCF bodies each emit only the marker (asserting the account id and function id never appear), a generic 404 page not found body stays unclassified, and a 500 canary body still cannot reach the output.

Exception path reported the wrong endpoint (Operability & recovery). runSandboxInferenceInvocationProbe built its catch-block result without endpoint, so a thrown probe fell back to /v1/models — contradicting the contract this PR introduces. It now derives the endpoint from the same input via the exported resolveSandboxInferenceInvocationEndpoint, covered by a test across all three API families.

Onboarding entrypoint coverage (CodeRabbit, Major). The gate test only exercised the predicate. Added a case that drives verifyOnboardInferenceSmoke through runVerifyOnboardSmokeHarness and asserts nvidia-prod issues POST https://integrate.api.nvidia.com/v1/chat/completions. Verified it guards the change: reverting the selector makes it record zero runCurlProbe calls and fail.

Docs (CodeRabbit, ×2). Reworded the 404 guidance, and scoped the endpoint and reachability statements to the invoked path — a gateway failure or absent invocation still names the models route and produces no reachability subprobe.

Re-verified: 355 unit tests across 12 affected suites, 29 CLI integration tests against a CLI rebuilt from this branch, typecheck, checks:repository, oxfmt, oxlint, commitlint — all pass.

On the two red E2E jobs (test-e2e-sandbox, test-e2e-gateway-isolation): both are failing repo-wide, not from this change. PRs #10956, #10952 and #10595 fail the same two jobs with identical messages — Apply did not use the gateway-pinned base-policy read and OVERRIDE_FAIL primary=inference/nvidia/nemotron-3-super-120b-a12b models=1 all_patched=False.

Remove the matcher implementation assertion.

Line 136 requires grep -qiE in the generated command. The observable requirement is NVCF classification and response-body suppression. Lines 189-218 already execute and verify that behavior. Remove this assertion, or replace it with another shell behavior case.

This pull request requires additional validation before any workflows can run on NVIDIA's runners.

Pull request vetters can view their responsibilities here.

Contributors can view more details about this message here.

The github-actions[bot] "merge: resolve conflicts with main" push cannot start
`pull_request` or `pull_request_target` workflows, so `Security / Package
OpenShell SDK for PR` never ran for de6a49b. `openshell-sdk-package` then
timed out waiting for its archive, the CLI shards were skipped, and `checks`
reported both. No test failed. This empty commit produces the `synchronize`
event those workflows need.

CI status on 922ab4b2d, for whoever picks this up: 40 pass, 11 fail, 4 skipping — none of the failures are from this PR.

checks is red for exactly one dependency: build-typecheck. I read the aggregator's log; it flags only that job, so the nine Specialist / * reds are not required checks and are not gating.

build-typecheck fails on a packaged-install test unrelated to this change, and it is not a flake — attempt 2 failed identically:

FAIL package-contract test/package-contract/managed-image-registry-transport.test.ts
  > loads from the packed CLI after an omit-dev install (#7744)
AssertionError: npm error Cannot read properties of null (reading 'edgesOut')
Tests  1 failed | 1238 passed (1239)

PR #10956 fails identically (same test, same npm/arborist error, same 1/1239), while #10952 and #10935 passed build-typecheck before they merged — so this looks like a recent repo-wide breakage in the packed --omit=dev install rather than anything in either PR. I could not find an existing issue for it. Locally on this branch npm run typecheck:cli, npm --prefix nemoclaw run typecheck and npx tsc -p jsconfig.json all pass; only the package-contract project reproduces it, and only in that one test.

Two other notes on this PR's CI history:

  • The github-actions[bot] "merge: resolve conflicts with main" push stranded the pipeline: a GITHUB_TOKEN push starts neither pull_request nor pull_request_target workflows, so Security / Package OpenShell SDK for PR never ran for that commit, openshell-sdk-package timed out waiting for its archive, the CLI shards were skipped, and checks reported the cascade. The empty commit 922ab4b2d produced the synchronize event those workflows needed; that workflow is now green and the shards run. Expect this to recur on any branch the bot auto-merges.
  • I verified the bot's conflict resolution did not touch this change: none of the five source files in this PR appear in de6a49b62, and the fix's markers are all intact. Re-verified after it: npm run typecheck and npm run checks:repository pass, and the six affected suites are 222/222.

test-e2e-sandbox and test-e2e-gateway-isolation no longer appear at all — the E2E gate has not dispatched E2E / Self-Hosted PR Qualification for any recent commit on this branch, so the two legacy suites #10941 removes are no longer red here either.

Picks up #10986, which fixes the build-typecheck packed-CLI install contract.

Update — the required checks are green. Superseding my previous comment: 474878d0c merges main, which now carries #10986 (test(package): install packed CLI as a consumer). That PR states the cause directly — "Main's build-typecheck job fails in this contract because npm 10.9.8 crashes with Cannot read properties of null (reading 'edgesOut')" — and rewrites the same contract test, confirming the failure was repo-wide rather than anything here. No issue needs filing.

On 474878d0c: 44 pass, 7 fail, 4 skipping. build-typecheck, cli-tests and the aggregate checks all pass. The 7 remaining reds are all Specialist / * advisor jobs, which checks does not gate on and which are failing on their own lifecycle step across other PRs too (#10930 had 7/9 red at the same time).

Locally on this head: npm run typecheck and npm run checks:repository pass, and the six affected suites are 222/222.
