Outcome

Authenticated hosted OpenAI-compatible and Anthropic-compatible endpoints use their configured HTTPS URL through an endpoint-restricted OpenShell provider attached to the selected sandbox. Selecting or refreshing an endpoint preserves other sandboxes' attachments and keeps upstream credentials outside agent configuration.

Slice 1 (#12562) has merged, and this PR now targets main. Existing AWS Bedrock workflows use a sandbox-attached provider and verified host adapter. Hosted real-provider qualification remains pending. Supported credentialless loopback endpoints retain their host-local path and belong to the local-provider slice.

Reason

The OpenShell upgrade needs hosted endpoint workflows to stop depending on the shared inference route while preserving destination validation, API restrictions, credential custody and recovery.

Related issues

Refs #12636. Part of #12558. Builds on merged #12562; independent of Slice 2, #12589 / #12593.

Changes

  • Validate HTTPS, endpoint and the complete DNS-address set before creating immutable endpoint/API/address-specific profiles. Keep issued pins in ownership receipts; explicit reselection creates a new address version without mutating a shared profile.
  • Reuse the native provider lifecycle for NVIDIA and compatible endpoints, requiring exact ownership and observed attachment. Preserve custom API paths, native agent configuration and selected-path status, health, readiness and connect.
  • Retire superseded compatible providers after successful selection commit, and failed new selections after the prior route is restored. Nonforce deletion and locked registry checks preserve attached and pending peers; observed absence is required before clearing authority. Confirmed destroy and terminal onboarding fallback failure after proven absence use the same ownership boundary. Uncertain creation retains recovery authority.
  • Preserve Bedrock AWS discovery on the host, bind the provider to the verified adapter generation and port, and carry the recorded native selection through onboarding, switching, get, status, health and cleanup.
  • Reject public HTTP before native provider creation and accept bounded generated profile identifiers during real CLI metadata readback.
  • Replace arbitrary native credential sentinels with supervisor-issued runtime handle references. Reject missing, raw and unversioned values before native probes or managed agent launch; include the inherited NVIDIA sibling path.
  • Verify effective OpenClaw endpoint, API, model and credential reference before reporting native onboarding smoke success.
  • Continue every native rollback attempt after a failure and preserve the original error. Validate endpoint/API selection and pending-reservation receipts before publishing state; retain ownership when detachment is uncertain. Focused action, registry and onboarding regressions cover these recovery cases.
  • Enforce the reviewed Slack package contract in both archive and installed-plugin remediation paths, and handle normalized provider names and HTTPS URL schemes consistently when selecting native credentials.
  • Add native compatible endpoint consumer coverage to the existing inference-routing owner, and correct the owning documentation.
  • Preserve failed destroy recovery while recording a bounded release-state/socket diagnostic. This improves evidence for the Docker cleanup failure; it does not claim the underlying cleanup problem is fixed.

Verification

Author repair c9d0cfeb43 fixes a runtime qualification failure: OpenShell rejected the generated compatible provider type because it was 87 characters long, beyond its 64-character limit. Bedrock used the same boundary with an 84-character identifier. Both now use lossless base36 encoding of the complete SHA256 identity, preserving all endpoint, protocol, address, gateway and adapter-generation inputs. Receipt ownership and reset checks remain fail-closed for obsolete identifiers.

The new length tests failed before the repair and passed afterward. Contract, lifecycle, reset, export and onboarding tests passed, along with full CLI typecheck, source architecture checks and normal signed commit hooks. The subsequent verified bot merge db4efe3480 incorporates main aa753e2c8c and preserves the repair plus the exact seven-point assertion delta. Its current-head hosted CI and reviews are pending; required workflows were approved through the existing maintainer account. The preceding author head passed core CI and incremental CodeRabbit review, but Advisor discovery failed before specialists ran as the PR revision changed. Previous-head results remain historical.

Previous head 9cc7909024 passed core CI, the scoped growth check, all managed-image jobs and all nine Advisor reviews after one bounded missing-artifact retry. Its subsequent inference-routing qualification failed at native provider creation; five scenarios passed, one failed and one was not run. The full failure log, assertions and cleanup were audited before this repair. That failed qualification has not yet been cleared on the new head. The live assertion increase remains seven points with an accepted scoped maintainer record; this repair adds no live assertions.

Review notes

This implementation used AI assistance. Independent human review and required current-head checks remain necessary. The PR targets main; Slice 1 is merged.

The earlier CodeRabbit question about retained public-HTTP hosted sandboxes remains a scope/compatibility question for maintainer review. The accepted migration excludes automatic legacy-beta migration and shared-route fallback; the implementation retains fail-closed receipt checks. No separate maintainer disposition on that compatibility question is claimed.

The existing inference-routing job can qualify the native custom endpoint path with an authenticated HTTPS fixture and a real sandbox agent turn, without vendor credentials. A fresh run is pending successful current-head image production and required review collection. The full recorded qualification floor remains in scope, including the separate credential-free Bedrock fixture and vendor-backed scenarios with their own environment and credential prerequisites. No unobserved live-provider success is claimed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added sandbox-attached inference for authenticated hosted OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible endpoints and AWS Bedrock, alongside NVIDIA Endpoints. Requests use the selected endpoint or verified Bedrock adapter.
    • Added route-aware status, health checks, configuration export, and credential support for these inference paths.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Strengthened credential validation and secret handling; unverified or mismatched provider routes now fail safely.
    • Improved provider cleanup and recovery when switching inference routes or removing sandboxes.
  • Documentation
    • Expanded setup, routing, verification, and troubleshooting guidance for hosted compatible endpoints and Bedrock.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Preserve the retained shared route for existing compatible sandboxes.

If a persisted compatible sandbox uses a public HTTP shared route without a native attachment, isNativeCompatibleHostedSelection still returns true. nativeInferenceInvocationFields then rejects the missing receipt after startSandbox has started the sandbox. Distinguish retained shared-route state from a native selection before requiring the receipt. Keep missing native receipts fail-closed. docs/inference/custom-endpoint-security.mdx documents both the retained route and public HTTP support. As per path instructions, “Trace every in-scope entrypoint and lifecycle path, including fresh execution, resume/retry/rebuild, persisted state.”

Publish cleanup for inactive OpenClaw providers.

patchOpenClawInferenceConfig changes inactive provider credentials in memory, but writeOpenClawInferenceConfigNatively sends only the selected provider entry. Include the changed inactive providers in the native update so their recognized NemoClaw credential references do not remain stale in the sandbox configuration.
