📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThis change replaces selective state persistence with version 2 archives of the complete native home and workspace. It removes per-sandbox snapshot commands and selective restore paths. Rebuild, destroy, agent contracts, tests, CI configuration, and documentation are updated for native-state transfer. ChangesNative state persistence and snapshot retirement
Priority: ➖ Normal Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Severity of issue fixed: Medium Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Stopped Deep Agents Code sandboxes can fail to rebuild because the rebuild now checks a live inference route that a stopped container cannot serve. The archive-listing helper can also skip link-safety checks when a caller reuses one file descriptor. Fix both before merging. Some documentation and test gaps should also be addressed. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 3 | ❌ 1 | ❓ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning, 1 inconclusive)

Inline comments:
In `@docs/deployment/deploy-to-headless-server.mdx`:
- Around line 344-352: Update the sandbox state boundary table to remove the
manifest-defined and arbitrary-edit claims, which conflict with the whole-home
transfer boundary shown in the rebuild table. Replace them with the complete
native home/workspace transfer boundary, while retaining the credential-store
and outside-home exclusions.
In `@docs/manage-sandboxes/recover-rebuild-sandboxes.mdx`:
- Around line 402-404: Update the Hermes rebuild section to describe
transferring the complete native home to the replacement, including its
configuration and other files, and passing the complete current OpenShell
policy. Remove references to capturing config set dotpaths, merging
configuration, and reporting restored or dropped keys.
In `@docs/manage-sandboxes/workspace-files.mdx`:
- Line 251: Remove the following kanban exclusion sentence from the
workspace-files documentation, since it conflicts with the statement that
rebuilds transfer the complete OpenShell-provided native home. Do not replace it
with exclusions for paths inside that home.
In `@docs/reference/commands.mdx`:
- Line 1995: Remove the stale workspace-wipe paragraph from the `destroy`
section of the command reference. Keep the updated guidance that OpenShell
deletion removes native home/workspace storage, and do not imply that `destroy`
runs a wipe step.
- Line 900: Remove the stale AgentOnly blocks for OpenClaw and Hermes that list
manifest-derived backed-up paths and kanban exclusions; retain the complete
native home/workspace transfer description and its surrounding recreation
guidance.
In `@src/lib/actions/sandbox/destroy-execution.ts`:
- Around line 537-538: Update the refusal and failure diagnostics in the
destroy-execution flow to remove references to the workspace wipe, which no
longer runs. Keep references to provider cleanup and sandbox deletion where
applicable, and retain the existing managed inference cleanup guidance.
In `@src/lib/state/sandbox.ts`:
- Around line 1348-1349: Update copyNativeArchiveToPrivateDescriptor to accept
backupPath as its staging parent and create the private restore directory there
instead of under os.tmpdir(). In openValidatedNativeArchive, preserve any
underlying error code in the returned archive error message.
- Line 1463: Update the root-directory guards in both command strings in the
sandbox flow so failure of either the directory check or symlink check
explicitly exits before `tar` or `find` runs. Preserve both checks and the
existing command behavior when the root is a valid non-symlink directory.
- Around line 1750-1752: Update listBackups and getLatestBackup so version-1
manifests are excluded before a backup can be selected for onboard or upgrade
restoration; retain restoreNativeSandboxState’s validation and provide explicit
manual-recovery guidance when no supported backup is available.

In `@docs/reference/troubleshooting.mdx`:
- Line 1607: Remove the leftover snapshot-sanitization text following the
rewritten rebuild sentence, including the stray list item, incomplete-snapshot
paragraphs, and warning. Update the recovery wording near “Restore a trusted
snapshot into a recreated sandbox” to refer to a trusted host copy instead.
In `@src/lib/state/sandbox.ts`:
- Around line 1621-1622: Update the link validation in the native restore flow
so it accepts hard-linked files and absolute symlinks resolving outside `$root`,
while still preserving symlinks and preventing writes outside the target
sandbox. Keep the existing protections for links that could escape during
extraction, and ensure restore handles the cases accepted by
`backupNativeSandboxState`.
- Around line 1272-1294: Quiesce or stop the agent before the native state
capture performed by the `spawnSync` tar command, and ensure every
caller—including backup-all, upgrade, rebuild, and credential-rotation
paths—does so. If any path must capture a live sandbox, use consistent SQLite
snapshots and report tar status 1 as a distinct condition.

In @docs/manage-sandboxes/run-pi.mdx:
- Line 82: Update the `tools/` persistence entry in the native-state transfer
table to mark the directory as preserved, reflecting that the transfer includes
it.
In @src/lib/actions/sandbox/rebuild-backup-phase.ts:
- Around line 159-162: Update runRebuildBackupPhase to pass stoppedNativeState
into backupSandboxStateForRebuild and use its nativeDirectory to create
native-home.tar locally, without SSH capture or starting the container. Preserve
validation, credential scanning, digest generation, and manifest generation with
root set to /sandbox, and assert the stopped source is current before publishing
the manifest.
In @src/lib/state/sandbox.ts:
- Around line 996-1020: Update nativeArchiveCredentialViolation to collect
sensitive, environment, and structured-file candidates in one pass, then extract
those candidates together once into a private temporary directory under
backupPath instead of calling readNativeArchiveEntry per file. Read extracted
files with O_NOFOLLOW, preserve the existing size limit and credential checks,
and remove the temporary directory in a finally block.
- Around line 1160-1170: Update inspectNativeSandboxState to accept an optional
member filter and have runHermesCronRestoreBackupPreflight inspect only .hermes;
stage extraction beside the backup instead of in os.tmpdir(), treat a missing
filtered member as an empty directory, and report genuine extraction failures
clearly.
- Around line 1003-1016: Update nativeArchiveCredentialViolation to avoid
rejecting backups because unrelated dependency or schema files contain
recognized credential fields. Limit structured-file scanning to NemoClaw-owned
configuration files, while preserving credential checks for runtime credential
files and the existing lockfile exclusion.
- Around line 1627-1632: Update the staging and replacement commands in
restoreNativeSandboxState to create the restore stage under "$root" instead of
the temporary directory. Exclude "$stage" when clearing the root, then move its
staged contents into "$root" so extraction and replacement stay on the target
filesystem.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Checked 574c2c1ce95c2d96ffb5bdaba1391357360e6d83 against the two findings in Advisor run 36627945589. Both still need resolution:
- Pi persistence contract:
docs/reference/pi-support.mdxsays whole-home rebuild preserves project-trust files, butsrc/lib/state/sandbox.ts:93still excludes.pi/agent/trust.json. The Pi qualification test also expects that file's marker to disappear. This exclusion existed before this PR; the new preservation claim conflicts with the retained behavior. Align the implementation, qualification test, and documentation with #11767's accepted native-state contract. If excluding per-path trust remains intentional, record that exception and its fallback behavior instead of promising preservation. - Recovery commands:
docs/reference/troubleshooting.mdx:2189-2196still instructs users with an empty OpenClaw config to runsnapshot listandsnapshot restore, while this PR deletes those commands. Replace that procedure with the supported independent-backup and recreation steps. The sub-agent guide also still claims rebuild strips credentials and snapshot restore exists; align that guidance with the new fail-closed transfer behavior.
The latest automatic Advisor run, 36640312528, was skipped; the published specialist reports cover the older 58d6b40 commit. Current-commit feedback collection is therefore incomplete, and this comment is not a completed review of the entire 299-file change.
Separately, CI run 36638782930 fails its required checks aggregate because npm audit rejects three advisories for undici@8.10.0. The manifests and lockfiles match base b1494a0, so this is inherited dependency debt, not a new defect introduced by this PR. Approval remains pending the findings and required checks.

Outcome
Native agents now retain their complete OpenShell-backed home and workspace instead of a NemoClaw-selected inventory of directories and files. Routine stop, start, and reconnect continue to rely on OpenShell storage; unavoidable rebuilds transfer the whole native agent root without copying OpenShell-owned host credentials.
Reason
Selective snapshots and per-agent allowlists could discard valid but unrecognized configuration, history, hooks, plugins, packages, cron data, and child-agent state. The basic onboarder should preserve native agent storage without imposing a second state model.
Fixes #11767
Changes
native-home.tararchive.node_modules, and virtual environments; discard the unpublished backup on any violation or inspection failure.Verification
