Outcome

New OpenClaw sandboxes attach Ollama, standalone vLLM, and llama.cpp to a sandbox-owned OpenShell provider. Existing shared-route sandboxes retain supported live model switches. Unsafe local selection, resume, or rebuild stops before route mutation with backup and fresh recreation guidance.

Scope

This is the accepted OpenClaw slice of #12975. Local NVIDIA NIM retains its shared route; user-supplied compatible endpoints retain the behavior already on main. Deep Agents Code behavior comes from merged #13203; Pi and Hermes routing are unchanged by this diff. Refs #12975.

Changes

  • Preserve OpenClaw native-local identity and receipt validation through onboarding, config generation, live selection, status, and rebuild.
  • Reuse the sandbox's exact provider attachment for a model switch. For another local provider, prepare its sandbox-owned attachment using the existing runtime endpoint and credential owners, verify it, and commit through the existing switch transaction. Detach and retire it when leaving native local routing. If retirement remains attached after route commit, retain its authority and retry exact cleanup on the next inference set.
  • Keep Local NIM on its shared route and retain merged feat(inference): attach Deep Agents Code local providers #13203 Deep Agents Code behavior.
  • Update routing and recovery docs, including the architecture reference. State that legacy OpenClaw local sandboxes without an attachment can switch models on their shared route but cannot resume or rebuild.
  • Add a bounded inference-routing-openclaw-native live target for authenticated llama.cpp and credentialless vLLM OpenClaw consumer cases. The authenticated case covers rebuild, restart, a live inference set model switch, unchanged shared route, sibling denial, and credential isolation. Its source owners select this target for later native-local implementation changes. Reuse the existing OpenClaw switching test owner, with separate selectors and time budgets. Remove deterministic metadata duplicates and a redundant direct mock request while preserving live gateway, lifecycle and security evidence.

Verification

  • Current candidate b4bb31e7af82922af0936f45ad5b6f12e67e0f91 passes OpenClaw's agent identity to the start-time inference probe so it uses the recorded native endpoint. Failed replacement cleanup now preserves its error while attempting to restore the prior local attachment; if restoration also fails, the error names both retained providers. All 84 focused start/native-switch tests pass. Four new cases failed against the previous code: two wrong-endpoint cases, missing prior attachment after cleanup failure, and skipped restoration diagnostics. Commit hooks and growth guardrails pass. No live assertions, timeouts or budgets changed.

  • Previous candidate 7f11569215a5f4b1bd238387eef99f4f5dc44f28 verifies the recorded native-local attachment immediately before rebuild deletion instead of looking for a shared provider under the logical provider name. It preserves runtime/gateway identity and refuses deletion if authority changed during backup. All 73 focused provider and rebuild-flow tests pass, including successful native OpenClaw rebuild without a shared provider and refusal after detachment. Both new integrated cases failed against the old pipeline. Commit hooks and growth budgets pass; no live assertions changed.

  • Previous candidate 1caff05f7da8e4b837ad3b0b996b9c560c7a44c7 reuses the existing host-to-gateway endpoint conversion during final native route verification. This fixes authenticated llama.cpp onboarding without changing attachment ownership checks or live assertions. The two host-address regressions failed before the repair; all 36 route tests and 54 endpoint-conversion/terminal-verification tests passed afterward.

  • Previous candidate 2bfd92e74c25ae6beee612f435e74a7dfe938ca3 permits the existing Python onboarding smoke client in the OpenClaw native-local profile. Its credentialless vLLM fixture accepts unauthenticated host preflight while still rejecting wrong supplied tokens and requiring the exact sentinel on the real agent request.

  • Previous repair: 61 native-local tests, seven HTTP fixture tests and seven growth-guardrail tests passed. Assertion census remains 1,256 direct expectations across 77 test files. CLI typecheck, lint, secret scanning, semantic phase checks and isolated publication validation passed. No live assertion was weakened or removed in this repair.

  • Previous candidate 9c4be6cde888f6c2a4186516199d8d6b36980dc3 repaired native preflight with shared peers and switches between local providers using sandbox-owned attachments. Failed attachment or registry publication removes the new provider and restores prior access; owned NIM retains its shared route.

  • Previous repair: 97 focused switch/rollback/credential tests passed, followed by 54 after import consolidation; final native switch suite passed 9 cases. Native preflight/NIM startup tests passed 27 cases; E2E target selection passed 139. Counts overlap. Commit hooks passed; dependency budget decreased from 31 to 30 imports for the switch entrypoint.

  • Earlier local validation: 240 focused CLI/E2E-support tests passed; 127 switching/configuration tests passed; final rollback changes passed 90 focused tests. Growth guardrails (7 tests), mock/live parity, semantic phase coverage, assertion census, type checking, lint and secret scanning passed. Counts overlap across focused runs.

  • Suite budget is below main: 16 fewer direct and unique expect calls and 10 fewer direct and unique assertion points; no additional live test files. Existing helpers increase only the consolidated file's transitive allocation. Exact authorization: feat(inference): attach OpenClaw local providers #13293 (comment). Candidate policy binds that transition; independent enforcement still checks the maintainer record.

  • Current-candidate CI, managed-image activation, automated review and native-local E2E are pending. On 7f115692, full CI, the entire managed-image workflow (both architectures and rootless Podman activation), and rootless CPU qualification passed. CodeRabbit reviewed the five-file rebuild repair with no actionable findings. All nine Advisor specialists completed; its gate reported three findings. The start and rollback findings are repaired above. The explanatory routing statements in docs/reference/platform-support.mdx:138 and docs/inference/choose-local-inference-server.mdx:132 are deferred to documentation follow-up under the requested scope policy; current routing guidance already describes native OpenClaw selections. The Advisor aggregate was not green. Native E2E was not dispatched on that commit because the start defect was reproduced before a live run. On 1caff05f, full CI, all managed-image activation jobs and rootless CPU passed. All nine Advisor code ledgers were clear; its aggregate remained red for an unresolved native-target recommendation. CodeRabbit withdrew its duplicate-assertion suggestion. Native run 38908173132 passed credentialless vLLM and authenticated llama.cpp onboarding on both Docker and Podman, then stopped before rebuild deletion because it looked for the nonexistent shared provider. The current repair addresses that check. All four sandbox/fixture cleanups passed; recreation, restore, restart, model-switch and isolation checks remain unproven by that run. On 2bfd92e7, full CI and managed-image activation passed, CodeRabbit reported no actionable comments, and all nine Advisor code ledgers were clear; its aggregate remained red for unresolved native coverage. Native run 38900071371 passed credentialless vLLM on Docker and Podman but failed authenticated llama.cpp final verification after its Python smoke succeeded. The host/gateway endpoint mismatch is repaired above. All four owner/fixture cleanups passed; later llama.cpp lifecycle/isolation checks were unreached. On 9c4be6c, native E2E run 38883902736 exposed the two onboarding blockers repaired above; later lifecycle/isolation assertions were not reached. Broader run 38883974902, attempt 2, passed both protected image architectures, GPU/local-inference qualification and its cleanup, but failed existing-path scenarios. That broad set is not green and is historical evidence for the current candidate. All nine prior Advisor code ledgers were clear; its aggregate remained red for unresolved native-local live coverage.

Review notes

Source tests own deterministic receipt/configuration fields. Live tests retain actual OpenClaw requests, selected models, authenticated and sentinel credential consumption, lifecycle, unchanged shared-route state, credential scans and owner/sibling isolation. NIM and unrelated provider/agent behavior remain outside this slice.

Deferred: minor rebuild wording clarification for owned NIM, redundant low-level NIM configuration plumbing (production callers already disable native selection), inherited DCode response-API/profile-normalization diagnostics and additional defensive handler validation beyond the existing receipt-confirming setup path. Sensitive inference, onboarding and configuration paths still require final independent automated-review disposition and exact-candidate live evidence.

Broader-run follow-ups: DCode baseline HTTP 503 and its credentialless loopback-fixture mismatch also fail on exact base bdf2172 in 38866880024. Podman hosted-switch fixtures use an unsupported custom Dockerfile or a rejected link-local address. Other existing-path failures (Entra request, Podman cleanup permissions and Anthropic-custom SQLite backup) are recorded without claiming their root causes are established. The existing OpenClaw rebuild case passed. These do not authorize expanding this local-provider slice.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • OpenClaw can use sandbox-attached Ollama, standalone vLLM, and llama.cpp providers. Inference requests go directly to the attached provider, with credentials scoped to the sandbox.
    • Provider and model switches preserve the appropriate route; Local NVIDIA NIM and compatible custom endpoints continue to use the shared route.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Rebuilds verify a recorded local provider attachment before deleting a sandbox, helping prevent loss of access when its provider authority is unavailable.
    • Older OpenClaw sandboxes without a local attachment cannot be resumed or rebuilt; back them up and create a fresh sandbox when required.
  • Documentation
    • Updated guidance covers routing, credentials, and recovery steps.

📝 Walkthrough

OpenClaw now supports sandbox-attached native-local inference through Ollama, standalone vLLM, and llama.cpp. The changes update routing, onboarding, inference switching, and rebuild validation. They also add end-to-end coverage and document routing behavior and legacy sandbox recovery requirements.

Changes: OpenClaw native-local inference

Layer / File(s) Summary
Native-local routing contract
src/lib/inference/native-local/*, src/lib/inference/config.ts, src/lib/inference/selection.ts, src/lib/inference/config.test.ts, src/lib/inference/native-local.test.ts
Native-local bindings can identify OpenClaw ownership. Routing predicates and profile selection now account for OpenClaw, local providers, and NIM selection.
Onboarding and runtime setup
Dockerfile, scripts/generate-openclaw-config.mts, src/lib/onboard/*, src/lib/onboard/machine/handlers/*, test/onboarding/onboard-host-local-inference-routing.test.ts, test/generation/*, src/lib/onboard/managed-workload/native-local-startup-route.test.ts, src/lib/verify-deployment.ts
Onboarding and managed startup record and use OpenClaw native-local attachments. Config generation resolves local credential references, and the runtime payload includes the required modules.
Inference selection and provider lifecycle
src/lib/actions/inference-get.ts, src/lib/actions/inference-set.ts, src/lib/actions/inference-set/*, src/lib/actions/inference-set-*.test.ts, test/helpers/inference-set*.ts
Inference readback validates matching OpenClaw attachments. Switching updates local route and configuration state and handles provider detachment, restoration, retirement, and reconciliation.
Route readback and rebuild safeguards
src/lib/actions/sandbox/*, src/lib/onboard/machine/handlers/sandbox.ts, src/lib/onboard/setup-inference.ts, test/helpers/rebuild-flow-*.ts, test/package-contract/rebuild-owning-registry-worker.test.ts, src/lib/onboard/machine/handlers/sandbox-route-publication.test.ts
Rebuild validation accepts matching native attachments and rejects legacy shared local routes that cannot be safely preserved. Rebuild fixtures and recreation tests cover these cases.
End-to-end coverage and test harness
test/e2e/fixtures/*, test/e2e/lib/fake-openai-compatible-api.mts, test/e2e/live/openclaw-inference-switch.test.ts, test/e2e/support/*, test/e2e/mock-parity.json, tools/e2e/*, ci/e2e-assertion-*.json, ci/source-architecture-budget.json
New tests cover authenticated and credentialless OpenClaw inference, rebuild and restart, credential isolation, and sibling access denial. The E2E target, timeouts, and assertion budgets include the coverage.
Inference routing documentation
docs/about/*, docs/deployment/*, docs/inference/*, docs/manage-sandboxes/*, docs/reference/*
The documentation distinguishes native-local attachments from shared routes and describes routing, readback, switching, and recovery for legacy sandboxes.

Review comments at @ci/platform-matrix.json:
- Line 211: Update ci/platform-matrix.json at 211 to remove newly migrated
OpenClaw local selections from the shared-route list and state that they use
sandbox-attached providers. In docs/about/how-it-works.mdx at 216, identify Pi,
Hermes, and unmigrated OpenClaw local sandboxes as using the shared route. In
docs/reference/architecture.mdx at 33, 175, 362, and 368, place new OpenClaw
local selections on the attached-provider path. In docs/reference/commands.mdx
at 1724, 1774, 2133, and 3332, correct references to other agents’ local
selections to distinguish newly migrated OpenClaw selections. In
docs/reference/network-policies.mdx at 225–229, split the openclaw,hermes
variant so the shared-route claim applies only to Hermes and unmigrated
OpenClaw. Regenerate docs/reference/platform-support.mdx at 138 from the
corrected platform matrix.

Review comments at @src/lib/actions/inference-set.ts:
- Around line 1994-2000: In the catch flow around restorePreviousOpenClawLocal,
catch and retain any local restore failure instead of allowing it to replace the
original error. Continue running restorePreviousNativeAfterFailedPublish,
rollbackNativeSelection, and provider-mutation recovery, then include the
retained restore failure alongside the original error in the final thrown error.

Review comments at @src/lib/actions/sandbox/inference-invocation-probe.ts:
- Around line 331-333: Pass input.agentName to getSandboxInferenceConfig in the
success-path response-body validation so its inferenceApi matches the API
selected by buildProbeRequest for native local endpoints.

Review comments at
@src/lib/adapters/openshell/native-inference-profile-response.ts:
- Around line 190-202: Update the expected boundary in the native profile
response validator to use the prepared endpoint as the single source of truth.
Replace values recomputed from binding.endpointUrl with endpoint.host,
endpoint.port, and rules derived from endpoint.rules, and use
expected.credentialEnv instead of binding.credentialEnv so validation matches
the normalized prepared document.

Review comments at @src/lib/onboard.ts:
- Around line 3210-3216: Extract the inline verifyDeployment closure and its
onboardInferenceVerificationContext setup into a focused helper, then wire the
helper at the existing verifyDeployment assignment. Preserve the current
arguments and verification behavior while keeping the entry point limited to
dependency wiring.

Review comments at @src/lib/onboard/machine/handlers/sandbox.ts:
- Around line 1310-1323: Align staged recreation support between setup inference
and sandbox validation: if OpenClaw recreation is in scope, update
validatedNativeLocalCreateEntry to accept both agent names and require
staged.attachment.agent to be "openclaw" for OpenClaw and undefined for
langchain-deepagents-code, then add an OpenClaw case to the legacy DCode
recreation publication suite. Otherwise, reject OpenClaw in setup-inference.ts
before prepareNativeLocalSelection runs.

Review comments at @src/lib/onboard/managed-workload/onboard-orchestration.ts:
- Around line 403-407: Before calling resolveSandboxCreateIntent for fresh
OpenClaw creation, reject local-provider selections that lack a matching
nativeLocalProviderAttachment; preserve explicitly authorized legacy shared
routes. Use the existing validation and authorization context to distinguish
those legacy routes from unattached fresh local routes.

Review comments at @test/e2e/live/inference-routing.test.ts:
- Line 1291: In TC-INF-15, assert that attachment is defined immediately after
onboarding and before rebuild or sibling onboarding, following the existing
pattern in TC-INF-16; retain the later endpointUrl usage only after that
assertion.

Update the docs that still say OpenClaw local selections use the shared route. This PR adds sandbox-attached providers for new OpenClaw Ollama, standalone vLLM, and llama.cpp selections.

Pass agentName to the response-body API resolution.

buildProbeRequest calls getSandboxInferenceConfig with input.agentName (Line 109). For DCode and OpenClaw native local endpoints, getSandboxInferenceConfig then forces inferenceApi to openai-completions, so the request goes to /chat/completions.

The success-path check at Lines 327-334 omits agentName. Without it, the forced override does not apply, and inferenceApi falls back to input.preferredInferenceApi. Suppose a recorded preferredInferenceApi is openai-responses or anthropic-messages. Then validateInferenceResponseBody checks a chat-completions body against the wrong schema. The probe reports "invalid response body" for a working native local route.

Status, start, and readiness probes pass sb.preferredInferenceApi directly. Resolve the API once with the same arguments that build the request.

Build the expected boundary from the prepared document. Do not re-parse the raw binding URL.

prepareNativeLocalProfile normalizes the binding. The normalization removes a trailing path slash and canonicalizes the origin. This validator takes allowed_ips and binaries from that normalized document. It recomputes host, port, and rules from the raw binding.endpointUrl instead.

Consider a caller that supplies a qualified URL with a trailing slash, such as http://host.docker.internal:11435/v1/. That URL is accepted by normalizeNativeLocalBinding. The validator then expects /v1//models and /v1//chat/completions. The imported profile contains /v1/models and /v1/chat/completions. The live profile read fails with a schema error, even though the profile is correct.

The url.port || (https ? 443 : 80) fallback is also unreachable, because qualification requires an explicit port. Use the prepared endpoint as the single source of truth.

Move the deployment-verification context wiring out of the entry point to fix the growth-guardrail failure.

The growth guardrail test fails because src/lib/onboard.ts grew by 5 lines. This change adds the onboardInferenceVerificationContext construction inline in the verifyDeployment closure. The growth-guardrail job blocks merge.

Move the verifyDeployment closure body into a focused helper under src/lib/onboard/. For example, add src/lib/onboard/deployment-verification.ts and export createOnboardDeploymentVerifier({ gatewayName, agentName, getContext, getSandbox, sandboxExec, providerExistsInGateway }). Then call it here in one line. The repository guidance states: "Keep src/lib/onboard.ts as entry setup and dependency wiring."

Assert that the attachment exists before you dereference it.

TC-INF-15 does not assert attachment. If onboarding records no nativeLocalProviderAttachment, attachment!.endpointUrl throws a TypeError late in the test, after rebuild and sibling onboarding. The test then fails with an unclear error. Add expect(attachment).toBeDefined() after Line 1211, as TC-INF-16 does.

Published the scoped final-verification repair in 1caff05f7da8e4b837ad3b0b996b9c560c7a44c7.

The last native E2E run passed credentialless vLLM on Docker and Podman. Authenticated llama.cpp reached a successful Python inference smoke, then failed final verification because the selected host URL was compared against the gateway attachment URL. Verification now uses the existing endpoint converter before the existing exact comparison; ownership checks remain intact.

The two host-address regressions failed before the fix. All 36 route tests and 54 endpoint-conversion/terminal-verification tests pass afterward. No live assertion or budget changed. Both runtimes completed owner/fixture cleanup. Fresh CI, image qualification and native E2E are pending; approval has not been submitted. Existing nonblocking follow-ups remain deferred.

Published the scoped rebuild repair in 7f11569215a5f4b1bd238387eef99f4f5dc44f28.

Native run 38908173132 passed vLLM and llama.cpp onboarding on Docker and Podman, then found a delete-edge check still looking up a shared provider. The repair revalidates the exact recorded native attachment immediately before deletion and stops if it was detached during backup. All 73 focused tests and commit growth checks pass. No live assertions changed. Existing nonblocking follow-ups remain deferred.

Fresh CI, image activation and exact-candidate native lifecycle/isolation evidence are still pending; this is not a final approval.

Published the scoped runtime repairs in b4bb31e7af82922af0936f45ad5b6f12e67e0f91.

  • OpenClaw start now supplies its agent identity to the inference probe, which selects the recorded native endpoint.
  • If replacement-provider cleanup fails during rollback, restoration of the prior attachment is still attempted. Errors preserve both provider identities when both operations fail, and recovery authority is retained.
  • All 84 focused start/native-switch tests pass. Four new cases failed against the previous implementation. Normal commit hooks and growth guardrails passed; no live assertions, timeouts, or budgets changed.

On the previous commit, full CI and the complete managed-image workflow passed. CodeRabbit had no actionable findings. All nine Advisor specialists completed: the two runtime findings are repaired here; the stale explanatory statements in docs/reference/platform-support.mdx:138 and docs/inference/choose-local-inference-server.mdx:132 are deferred to documentation follow-up under the requested scope policy. Existing routing guidance already describes the accepted native OpenClaw contract. This deferral does not claim the Advisor gate passed.

Fresh CI, reviews and native lifecycle/isolation E2E are pending. Final approval has not been submitted.

Post-merge follow-up: #13354 adds safe, native-local restart probe diagnostics for the failure observed in the exact-merge main E2E run at f860e2eccb93ccba546cf45c71998e88e60a13d0. The authenticated OpenClaw restart remains WIP until the follow-up has exact-head live evidence and any underlying failure is classified and repaired.

## Outcome

New Pi native-local selections use sandbox-attached providers. Existing
Pi sandboxes retain their completed shared local route during resume and
rebuild. Qualified private compatible endpoints use the same native
route on nonstandard ports. Pending or unpublished shared routes stop
before rebuild can back up or delete the sandbox.

## Reason

This implements the accepted Pi slice of #12975 while preserving
OpenClaw compatibility. The OpenClaw prerequisite #13293 is merged; this
PR now targets main and preserves its final fixes.

### Related issues

Refs #12975. Prerequisites #13293 and #13203 are merged.

## Changes

- Preserve Pi provider identity through route reservation, managed
startup, and rebuild. Reject another agent's attachment and defer legacy
recreation until backup succeeds.
- Resolve credentials through pinned Pi 0.84.1 and send the issued
credential even when Pi stores a stale key.
- Synchronize managed model defaults while preserving unrelated
settings. Include settings in startup rollback; accept empty files and
reject invalid nonempty contents without overwriting them.
- Use the existing persisted-route predicate for Pi rebuild preflight.
Regression cases cover missing publication time and a pending route
reservation. The existing inference-selection module exports the
predicate without adding another direct dependency on its
implementation.
- Use Pi’s existing qualified endpoint validator throughout selection,
startup, route retention, and legacy-route guards. Keep other agents’
endpoint selection unchanged.
- Select the Pi qualification target when its timeout contract changes.
Preserve the existing timeout and live assertions.
- Retain Pi qualification for authenticated local requests before and
after rebuild, credential isolation, and destruction. The existing
approval covers its ten added live assertions.
- Seed the existing rebuild-retention fixture with canonical managed
defaults so the unchanged settings hash assertion measures retention.
Keep user settings and trust/session checks intact.
- Clarify that Local NVIDIA NIM retains the shared route in Pi
quickstart and support guidance. Broader documentation catch-up and
separable enhancements remain deferred.

## Verification

- The main integration passed **455 tests in 17 focused Vitest suites**,
including Pi routing and retention, OpenClaw inference switching,
rebuild preflight, shared verification, and timeout selection.
- Strict `pi-qualification-receipt-refresh.mts` validation passed.
Paired AMD64/ARM64 receipts from [run
38873268267](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/38873268267),
source `46762b985`, retain Pi image-input parity.
- `npm run e2e:assertions:check` passed: 1,266 direct assertions across
77 live test files. No tests or live assertions were removed, and no
budget was raised.
- Normal signed commit and publication hooks passed, including
repository checks, growth checks, compiler checks, and secret scanning.
The diff contains no secrets, API keys, or credentials. Hooks deny
contributor credential access; signing and Git transport remain outside
that boundary.
- The fixture repair passed **114 tests in 3 focused suites**, a
before/after reproduction through the actual configuration generator,
and the unchanged assertion census. `npm run docs` passed with no
errors.
- Prior candidate `e059596b1` failed rootless Podman activation after
external OpenClaw rebuild at `ADMIN_REQUEST_SELECTION_FAILED` /
`selection-state-read` ([job
117063831360](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/38925489727/job/117063831360)).
All registered cleanup passed. The suite, approval helpers, canonical
state reader, and workflow are byte-identical to passing Podman run
38889770458 and the recorded main base. The exact state-read subtype was
not retained; no deterministic Pi-owned cause was identified. The final
commit still needs a successful Podman result; no waiver is claimed.
- Results for the new repair commit are pending. Prior candidate
`e059596b1` passed full CI and CodeRabbit review. All nine Advisor
reviews were collected; the valid Local NIM wording finding is repaired
here.
- Manual Pi run
[38925630404](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/38925630404)
stopped at the image prerequisite before workload execution. It supplies
no live qualification evidence. The next run must wait for successful
managed-image validation of the new commit.

## Review notes

The current commit still requires CI, automated review, and the
authorized manual Pi E2E qualification before approval. The #13293
prerequisite is merged and the workflow's main-base requirement is
satisfied.

The [existing authenticated assertion
approval](#13007 (comment))
covers the unchanged ten Pi live assertions and exact change digest. No
additional assertions or budget increase were introduced by this
integration. Local growth and publication checks now use canonical
`origin/main`; independent enforcement remains required.

Source review covered the final Pi diff against main, including runtime
credential resolution, inference routing, onboarding, state retention,
E2E credential and cleanup boundaries, and the runtime bundle. The merge
retains the provider-neutral Python smoke probe alongside Pi Node access
and combines the parent route-verification matrix with Pi legacy-route
coverage. The general code review found the settings-fixture mismatch
repaired here and no additional product-code defect. Independent review
of the repair commit remains pending.

The previous candidate `260df64e1` passed CI, managed-image validation,
portable-profile E2E, Podman CPU, security, and CodeRabbit review. All
nine Advisor reviews were collected; eight were clear and the
documentation specialist reported the deferred broader-guidance update
below. That previous Advisor aggregate failed; no waiver or approval is
claimed.

Broader documentation catch-up remains deferred to `Docs / Author
Post-Merge Catch-Up`, as requested and permitted by root `AGENTS.md`:
`docs/about/how-it-works.mdx:217`,
`docs/reference/architecture.mdx:362`,
`docs/reference/platform-support.mdx:138`,
`docs/reference/enterprise-readiness.mdx:85,135`, and
`docs/reference/commands.mdx:1732,1784`. Owning Pi guidance remains in
this PR. Separable enhancements and cleanup are also deferred.

prekshivyas added a commit that referenced this pull request Oct 17, 2026
## Outcome

Hermes native-local startup, model switching and rebuild use
supervisor-issued credential references in all three managed credential
slots. Rebuild rebinds restored references through the existing guarded
writer while preserving route, user and MCP settings, including strings
interpreted differently by YAML 1.1 and 1.2. This PR contains the Hermes
slice on canonical main and preserves published history.

## Reason

The identityless credential alias cannot express provider ownership.
Restoring an archive also replaces fresh configuration with older
credential references and integrity anchors, so the ordinary strict
writer correctly refuses the required rebind.

### Related issues

Refs #12921 and #12558; implements the [accepted Hermes
slice](#12921 (comment)).
Uses the native-local foundation merged in #13203. Parent PR branches
remain unchanged; the separate OpenClaw slice merged in #13293 and is
preserved by this merge.

## Changes

- Extend the existing native-local configuration and provider owners to
Hermes, checking sandbox, gateway, provider and attachment identities.
Preserve canonical DCode behavior and the Local NIM exclusion.
- Refresh bounded opaque references in all three managed slots at
startup, initial activation, model switching and rebuild. Retain schema
validation, exact read digests, compensation, backup retention and
readiness checks.
- Add an explicit restore mode to the existing configuration
transaction. Only the three credential leaves may differ; validated
restored inputs become the rollback baseline under the existing lock.
Persisted recovery checks source digests and inodes before completing
interrupted anchor adoption. Ordinary writes retain strict drift checks,
with the authenticated startup transition described below. The real
guard regression covers successful adoption, refusals, rollback and
interrupted recovery; host transport tests verify the flag and sanitized
payload.
- Serialize Hermes configuration with YAML 1.1 compatibility. Archive
sanitization can produce JSON containing tool_search.enabled as the
string "on"; the previous writer emitted bare on, which Python
interpreted as true and correctly rejected as an unrelated change.
Preserve the value while retaining the strict three-credential-only
guard.
- Carry the validated sandbox agent into the existing
switch-verification probe so local requests use their recorded endpoint.
Report the selected Hermes native-local route from its recorded
attachment. Match the attachment's agent identity to the sandbox while
retaining sandbox, gateway, provider, credential and publication checks;
avoid consulting a stale shared route.
- Reconcile the actual non-root startup sequence before an ordinary root
config write. A bounded, untrusted preimage must match the existing
root-owned strict digest and replay the same three credential
replacements to exactly the current bytes. This is needed because
non-root startup can update only the compatibility hash. Preserve
mutable startup behavior, reject unrelated drift, and retain race,
rollback and cleanup checks. The startup regression exercises the real
guard with the production compat mode.
- Reconcile main's custom-hosted routing and cleanup ordering with
Hermes local routing. Existing routing and rollback tests protect both
paths.
- Extend existing Hermes live scenarios for authenticated requests and
sibling denial. Retain meaningful cleanup checks and documented
lower-level coverage. The current assertion allocation is three unique
points below main, with no per-file increase.

- Preserve the first public destroy failure in double-onboard while
attempting every remaining destroy and raw fallback. Reconcile the
registry after fallback deletion, then retain sandbox, registry and
listener checks and fail on any original destroy error. Registered
teardown uses the same raw-deletion-before-registry-reconciliation
recovery order. Separate artifacts retain the original failure and later
cleanup results.
- Preserve the typed offline native-home cleanup failure code in both
thrown and returned live-transport failure paths. Keep the original
error and existing refusal behavior; do not change provider ownership,
image acquisition, deletion authority or registry retention.
- Use the common Docker/Podman `--volume source:target:nocopy` syntax
for stopped-state cleanup. Podman 6.1 rejects the previous Docker-only
`--mount ... volume-nocopy` option before creating the cleanup helper.
Retain resource identity checks, restricted helper execution, protected
paths and original destroy-failure reporting.
- Document the backup and fresh-recreation requirement for legacy Hermes
local routes that cannot resume or rebuild.

## Verification

Candidate: `b2c717ee0aabe3c61c06bd1d3305dcb71b28f870`. Published history
is preserved. **All seven scoped E2E cases, core CI, the nine-specialist
Advisor review and exact-candidate image activation pass on this
commit.**

- [Full seven-case
qualification](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/38980150868):
passed on the first workflow attempt. OpenClaw double-onboard on
Docker/Podman, Hermes double-onboard on Docker, and Hermes native
NVIDIA/Anthropic-compatible switching on Docker/Podman all passed. The
authenticated dispatch receipt binds this candidate, base
`f1dcab784d273a56f1adc6292c7336b81fb41767`, trusted workflow
`4ce30c292c0a518ee713f2d10460d473bb904637`, and the selectors.
- [Podman
double-onboard](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/38980150868/job/117240028538):
the first public destroy of stopped sibling B now exits successfully and
removes its managed state volume. Both original destroys pass, the final
sandbox/registry/listener checks pass, and all nine registered cleanup
callbacks pass. The original-error failure guard remains intact. No live
assertion or budget was changed by the mount repair.
- All seven case artifacts were authenticated by run identity, size and
digest. The four Hermes switching cases verify native-local startup and
model switching, authenticated baseline requests, expected post-switch
responses, credential-reference shape, strict/compatibility integrity
checks, root-owned unwritable anchors, preserved environment hashes and
successful cleanup. The workflow's Podman host restoration steps passed.
- E2E ran exact candidate CLI/tests with verified immutable ancestor
`26c994164121069b16da818b7319485d5da1c242` image contracts from
[successful Images run
38975293705](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/38975293705).
The repair changes only a host cleanup owner and two unit tests;
reviewed image COPY inputs and the managed runtime bundle are unchanged.
The separate [exact-candidate Images
run](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/38979898389) also
passed, including AMD64, ARM64 and rootless Podman managed runtime
activation and cleanup.
- [Core CI](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/38979898392)
passed, including all 12 CLI test shards and static checks. The actual
pinned Podman 6.1 parser rejects the old argument with `volume-nocopy:
invalid mount option` and accepts the replacement with the same source,
destination and `nocopy` option. Two mount regressions fail before the
repair; all 80 focused tests pass afterward. Normal signed-commit and
pre-push checks passed, and GitHub verified the signature.
- Both committed Pi qualification receipts match their authenticated
AMD64/ARM64 archives. The persisted-route fixture includes `createdAt`
and restores the Pi target. The current image builds also produced
authenticated Pi contracts for both architectures. Separate Pi #13364
live qualification is not claimed.

## Review notes

[CodeRabbit reviewed this
commit](#13292 (comment))
and reported no actionable findings. Its automatic docstring-coverage
warning remains advisory. All nine [current Advisor
specialists](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/38981808232)
reported clear, with no findings or unresolved recommendations; the
workflow and blocker gate passed. Their required `double-onboard`
selector is covered by the seven-case qualification above. This evidence
covers the accepted Hermes/Rebecca follow-up; the broader path-derived
review-queue qualification floor is not claimed as fully executed. No
human approval or waiver is claimed.

All nine [preceding Advisor
reports](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/actions/runs/38977281162)
were collected: seven clear and two findings about the initial public
destroy failure. The mount repair and passing current Podman case
address that failure without suppressing the original error after
fallback cleanup.

[Rebecca’s latest
review](#13292 (review))
requested the Podman cleanup fix and a passing latest-commit selector.
Both now have the evidence above. The requested legacy Hermes recovery
documentation explains the resume/rebuild refusal, backup and
fresh-recreation path, and retained Local NVIDIA NIM exception. The
requested automated checks have now passed. Rebecca’s existing
changes-requested review remains in place pending her independent
assessment.

Defer the advisory composed Hermes rebuild test, blanket Ollama
documentation catch-up, inherited custom-hosted credential-alias rebuild
defect, pinned OpenShell start/watch race and speculative hardening.
Parent branches and the separate Pi work remain untouched.

sandl99 added a commit that referenced this pull request Oct 19, 2026
…der (#13447)

## Outcome
For OpenClaw sandboxes that use a native local provider (Ollama, vLLM or
llama.cpp), `status`, `connect` and `start` now send their inference
health request to the provider recorded for the sandbox. Before this
change they sent it to the shared `inference.local` route, which
native-local onboarding does not configure. OpenShell 0.0.116 answers
that route with HTTP 503 ("cluster inference is not configured").
`status` still displayed the native endpoint. The GPU Ollama and GPU
double-onboard E2Es now use the per-sandbox provider too.

## Reason
Native-local onboarding attaches a provider to each sandbox and leaves
the shared route empty (#13293). The probe request builder used the
native endpoint only when the caller passed an agent that uses native
local inference. Some callers did not pass one:

- `status` passed the agent only for Deep Agents Code.
- `connect` and `start` readiness represent OpenClaw as a null agent.

Without an agent, the builder used
`https://inference.local/v1/chat/completions`. `doctor` passes the
agent, so it passed while `status` and `connect` failed. This matches
run 39196254769 on `762aef4c82`:

- The authenticated native OpenClaw test failed at `start` after a
successful rebuild.
- Both managed vLLM cases passed `doctor` and failed `connect
--probe-only`.

The GPU tests separately hardcoded `inference.local` or expected a
shared Ollama route.

The 503 response bodies were not retained. The 503 mechanism comes from
the pinned OpenShell source
(`crates/openshell-supervisor-network/src/proxy.rs`, v0.0.116). The
wrong destination is reproduced by the unit tests below. This PR does
not claim to explain every historical 503 in #13338.

### Related issues
Refs #13338

## Changes
- `src/lib/actions/sandbox/inference-invocation-probe.ts`: when the
sandbox has a native local attachment, the probe sends its request to
the attachment's recorded endpoint, whichever agent the caller passes.
- `src/lib/actions/sandbox/inference-route-health.ts`: native local
status reports the endpoint that the failed request used.
- GPU E2E: `gpu-e2e` checks the recorded native Ollama endpoint. Both
GPU tests send their chat requests there with the OpenShell-issued
credential handle (`test/e2e/fixtures/native-local-chat.ts`).
- `tools/e2e/target-catalogue.mts`:
  - Changes to the chat fixture select both GPU targets.
- Changes to the probe builder or route health select
`inference-routing-openclaw-native`.
- Tests: `test/helpers/native-local-probe-shell.ts` runs the generated
probe command in a real shell with a recording `curl`. New cases check:
- the destination URL and `Authorization` header for vLLM, llama.cpp and
Ollama, with the agent omitted, null or `openclaw`;
- the legacy null OpenClaw paths through `status` and readiness health;
  - the endpoint reported on failure;
  - rejection of a raw credential;
  - selections without a native attachment still using the shared route.
- `ci/platform-matrix.json` and `docs/reference/platform-support.mdx`:
new OpenClaw local selections are now described as using
sandbox-attached providers.

## Verification
- Regression: on the unfixed probe code, the new cases fail (11 failed,
8 passed). With the fix, all 19 pass, and all 182 tests in the three
suites pass.
- `npm run test:changed` (2525 tests) has 7 failures:
- 6 in `native-podman-setup-action.test.ts`, which also fail on
unmodified `762aef4c82` in this environment.
- 1 in `portable-openclaw-pairing-settlement`, which passes when run
alone.
- Workflow plan tests: 142 passed.
- `tsc -p tsconfig.cli.json --noEmit`, oxlint and oxfmt: passed. Commit
and pre-push hooks passed.
- `e2e-mock-parity` and `test:e2e-phases:check`: passed.
- Live E2E on the final commit: results will be posted on this PR.
- The diff contains no secrets, API keys or credentials.

## Review notes
- An earlier revision of this PR also derived the agent and passed it
from `status`, `connect` and readiness health. It was replaced by the
smaller endpoint selection above.
- #13354 retries native-local 503s during restart. The cause it
describes (a reference-path 503 while `doctor` succeeds) matches the
endpoint selection fixed here. A retry does not change the destination.
