Summary

Repair the deterministic non-credential regressions found by full E2E run 31895698451. The changes preserve fail-closed identity and ownership checks while restoring documented historical upgrades, bounded recovery convergence, fixed-port reuse, and protected OpenClaw startup.

Changes

  • recognize only the documented NemoClaw v0.0.74 legacy identity from OpenShell 0.0.72 with ttl_secs = 3600, preserve its signing material, and rewrite it to the current non-expiring form; arbitrary TTLs and scoped-identity mismatches remain fatal
  • allow only the installer-authorized NemoClaw v0.0.55 backup recovery path (NEMOCLAW_RESTORE_LATEST_BACKUP_ON_RECREATE=1) to attach the first scoped identity to an owner-controlled OpenShell 0.0.44 pre-auth database; JWT-backed or otherwise ambiguous state remains fatal
  • retry the authoritative inference invocation inside the existing three-attempt post-recovery window, with two-second delays only between failed attempts, instead of treating the first DNS-convergence miss as final
  • wait within the existing five-second forward-release budget before classifying the retiring Hermes port 8642 listener as foreign, using one owner-aware forward policy for onboarding and recovery
  • advance the live onboarding driver through the current Choose an action prompt
  • create /tmp/auto-pair.log as root-owned mode 0600 in root mode so PID 1 can open the redirection after dropping CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE; the stepped-down watcher receives only the inherited descriptor, while non-root mode retains its existing owner
  • correct the generated platform evidence to cite the nproc limit and DANGEROUS_CAPS source ranges
  • extend one startup recovery test timeout from 15 to 30 seconds after repeated coverage timeouts on unrelated PRs; assertions and product behavior remain unchanged

Type of Change

  • Code change (feature, bug fix, or refactor)
  • Code change with doc updates
  • Doc only (prose changes, no code sample modifications)
  • Doc only (includes code sample changes)

Quality Gates

  • Tests added or updated for changed behavior
  • Existing tests cover changed behavior — justification:
  • Tests not applicable — justification:
  • Docs updated for user-facing behavior changes
  • Docs not applicable — justification:
  • Sensitive paths changed (security, policy, credentials, preflight, onboarding, inference, runner, sandbox, or messaging)
  • Sensitive-path review completed or maintainer-approved waiver recorded — reviewer/approval link/justification: reviewed legacy TTL identity, signing-key, and token preservation plus negative mismatches; v0.0.44 restore authority, no-follow ownership/mode/version checks, and JWT rejection; the existing three-attempt inference budget with two inter-attempt delays; sandbox-owned forward release within five seconds; onboarding prompt sequencing; root-owned mode-0600 auto-pair output and test-temporary isolation; and generated platform citations. No credential or argv logging was added.
  • Non-success, skipped, or missing CI check accepted by maintainer — check name, approval link, and follow-up issue:

Documentation Writer Review

  • Documentation writer subagent reviewed the completed changes
  • Result: docs-updated
  • Evidence: Review covered the complete PR delta at commit under review 6e9be93f5. docs/reference/commands.mdx documents ordinary and recovered status inference traffic, three total recovered attempts, token use, and two-second inter-attempt delays. ci/platform-matrix.json and generated docs/reference/platform-support.mdx cite the current nproc and capability sources. The Anthropic retry fixture correction aligns an existing test with the native contract documented in fix(inference): reject flattened Anthropic tool calls #9236 for tool_use contract and needs no additional documentation. The PRA-1 test adds coverage for three failed inference requests after gateway recovery and needs no additional documentation because production behavior and its documentation do not change. All three follow-up changes are test-only and change no security boundary. The targeted inference-health test file passed 13/13 after the PRA-1 change. The startup test file passed 37/37 after the timeout correction. git diff --check passes.

  • Applicable broad gate passed — GitHub CI and protected amd64/arm64 managed-runtime qualification passed for PR commit 6e9be93f5
  • Quality Gates section completed with required justifications or waivers
  • No secrets, API keys, or credentials committed
  • npm run docs builds without warnings (doc changes only) — the command passed with zero errors; Fern reported the unauthenticated redirect-check warning and the existing 2.41:1 accent-color contrast warning

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This change updates gateway-state restoration, JWT configuration, forward cleanup polling, inference health retries, secure auto-pair log setup, onboarding prompt coverage, and related documentation and tests.

Changes

Sandbox onboarding and recovery

Layer / File(s) Summary
Gateway state recovery and JWT configuration
src/lib/onboard/docker-driver-gateway-*, test/support/openshell-gateway-config-helpers.ts
Gateway onboarding validates authorized OpenShell pre-authentication state, preserves approved legacy JWT TTL values, rejects ambiguous state, and propagates restore authority through environment and launch paths.
Forward release and recovery polling
src/lib/onboard/forward-cleanup.ts, src/lib/onboard/dashboard.ts, src/lib/actions/sandbox/forward-recovery.ts, test/onboard-dashboard.test.ts
Shared bounded polling helpers handle stopped-forward port release and recovery state. Dashboard setup waits for host listeners before reusing ports.
Inference gateway and invocation probing
src/lib/actions/sandbox/status-snapshot.ts, src/lib/actions/sandbox/status-snapshot-inference-health.test.ts, docs/reference/commands.mdx
Status checks retry gateway and provider-model invocation probes together after recovery, with bounded attempts and delays.
Secure auto-pair log setup and sandbox references
scripts/nemoclaw-start.sh, scripts/lib/sandbox-init.sh, test/nemoclaw-start-safe-tmp.test.ts, test/nemoclaw-start.test.ts, ci/platform-matrix.json, docs/reference/platform-support.mdx
Startup centralizes mode-600 auto-pair log creation with root- or sandbox-owned files. Documentation references the current process-limit script and trust-boundary behavior.
Onboarding action prompt update
test/e2e/live/onboard-policy-preset-sequencing.test.ts
The E2E test responds to the current action-selection prompt.

Main E2E triage evidence for latest PR commit c9f95ecd:

  • I independently reproduced the v0.0.74 upgrade failure from run 31895698451, job 95038810719, using the literal v0.0.74 generator and the current verifier. The sole semantic mismatch in the private, owner-controlled gateway config is historical ttl_secs = 3600 versus current ttl_secs = 0. The production recognition logic in this PR matches that boundary.
  • Please retain deterministic negative coverage that an arbitrary legacy TTL such as 3601 remains fatal without mutation and that a scoped-identity config with TTL 3600 remains fatal. The successful migration should also preserve the gateway ID, JWT key, and existing signed sandbox token. My unpublished focused proof passed 17/17.
  • This monitor uses one root cause per PR. The v0.0.74 TTL recognition regression is independently confirmed; the v0.0.55 pre-auth database, DNS retry, Hermes port, onboarding prompt, and managed-image diagnostic are distinct first failing boundaries. Please split unrelated causes before marking this PR ready. I will not publish a duplicate TTL fix. Ownership claim: [Ubuntu 24.04][Sandbox] Upgrading across #8677 orphans every pre-existing Docker sandbox on the first gateway restart: records are purged and baked sandbox tokens are rejected #8740 (comment)
  • Three completed PR E2E dispatches did not exercise a target. Run 31901743374 / job 95053606443 supplied managed-image-protected-runtime through the wrong selector input and the trusted controller rejected it. Run 31901878741 / job 95053893954 supplied the corrected selector but retained workflow/base SHA 1281924e6 after main advanced to de29c02a; authentication failed with workflow_sha must match the trusted main workflow SHA. Run 31901973319 / job 95054138949 used current workflow SHA de29c02a but retained PR commit eb5ff2f after the PR advanced to c9f95ecd; authentication failed with checkout_sha must match the PR head SHA. All target jobs were skipped. Do not duplicate these dispatches.

This monitor issued no E2E dispatch or E2E rerun.

PR Review Advisor — No blocking findings reported

Advisor assessment: No blocking advisor findings reported
Next action: No advisor follow-up needed.
Findings: 0 blockers · 0 warnings · 0 suggestions

  • GPT-5.6 Terra (primary): Completed · high confidence · 0 blockers · 0 warnings · 0 suggestions
  • Nemotron 3 Ultra (second opinion): Completed · high confidence · 0 blockers · 2 warnings · 0 suggestions
  • Model comparison: normalized findings differ; normalized terminology decisions differ; normalized E2E selections match; Nemotron reported the same number of blockers, 2 more warnings, the same number of suggestions.
2 terminology differences from the second opinion

Advisory only. These are normalized differences from the primary terminology receipt.

  • authoritative invocation at src/lib/actions/sandbox/status-snapshot-inference-health.test.ts:138: primary classified it as replace; the second opinion classified it as define.
  • pre-auth at src/lib/onboard/docker-driver-gateway-config-toml.test.ts:474: selected only by the second-opinion lane as define.

Second-opinion terminology and E2E selections are advisory. Live E2E does not run automatically for pull requests.

3 semantic terminology decisions

Terminology decisions are advisory. They affect the assessment only when a separate finding identifies concrete semantic impact.

  • replace — authoritative invocation at src/lib/actions/sandbox/status-snapshot-inference-health.test.ts:138: Replace with "authoritative inference request" when the route distinction matters.
  • justified — pre-auth database at src/lib/onboard/docker-driver-gateway-config-toml.test.ts:474: Keep "pre-auth database" and retain the version and restore-authority constraints where the term is used.
  • justified — retiring listener at src/lib/onboard/dashboard.ts:297: Keep "retiring listener" with the surrounding explanation of the bounded release wait.

E2E guidance

Advisory only. A maintainer can dispatch the default E2E suite for the commit under review.

Recommended E2E: None

Manual-only E2E: cloud-onboard, managed-image-multiarch-startup, security-posture, onboard-repair, onboard-resume, ubuntu-repo-docker-post-reboot-recovery, onboard-policy-preset-sequencing, cloud-inference, rebuild-openclaw, state-backup-restore
The manual PR workflow does not run these selectors for the commit under review. Run them from reviewed code on main.

Additional automatic-main evidence from run 31901879474 at de29c02a:

  • Job 95054048046 (v0.0.74, x86-64) completed the backup and installed OpenShell 0.0.101, then failed at the first recovery gateway query: Failed to query running sandboxes from OpenShell / recovery did not complete. The installer returned 1. The later No active gateway cleanup message is downstream.
  • Jobs 95054047983 (v0.0.55, Arm64) and 95054048053 (v0.0.55, x86-64) failed at the same recovery boundary after their backups and OpenShell upgrades. These lanes exercise the pre-auth database case described in this PR.

This confirms the v0.0.74 and v0.0.55 ownership already declared here. It does not change the earlier request to keep unrelated DNS, port, onboarding, and managed-image causes separate before review. No E2E dispatch or rerun was issued.

Maintainer review update — two blockers remain

I reviewed the complete 21-file diff, the two verified commits since 67b1644e9, linked E2E evidence, tests, security-sensitive paths, documentation, current CI, CodeRabbit, and both Advisor lanes at latest PR commit 7e09ee508.

Resolved since the prior review:

  • The startup fixture now rewrites prepare_auto_pair_log to its temporary path and rejects an accidental /tmp/auto-pair.log write. The prior shared-fixture finding is fixed.
  • docs/reference/commands.mdx now describes the delay between failed attempts. The documentation receipt is current, and the recorded docs build passed with its disclosed baseline warnings.
  • The new commits do not change production behavior or introduce a new security finding.

Remaining blockers:

  1. Record one accepted scope. The PR still combines independent gateway-upgrade recovery, inference retry, Hermes forward retirement, onboarding prompt sequencing, auto-pair log ownership, and generated platform-evidence repairs. Split the independent causes, or record an explicit maintainer decision accepting this combined regression-repair batch and its evidence requirements.
  2. Wait for terminal gates. Nemotron failed, and protected runtime, image, security, CLI-shard, and Advisor lanes are still running. Earlier protected dispatches that did not execute the intended target are not qualification evidence.

The current approval does not replace the missing written scope decision or the unfinished required gates. I did not approve or merge this PR.

Maintainer review — latest PR commit f32e641621

The automated upstream merge resolves the sole source conflict in status-snapshot.ts by applying main's shared retry helper to #9219's combined gateway-and-invocation recovery attempt. It preserves the existing three-attempt budget, two inter-attempt delays, terminal result handling, and fail-closed exception reporting. I found no new source blocker in that resolution.

Two revision-bound gates remain:

  1. Substantive CI did not run for the latest PR commit. The synchronization-triggered workflows are action_required. A later description-edit run reports gate false: its wrapper passes, but the static, build, CLI, plugin, installer, and advisor lanes are skipped. Authorize or otherwise obtain the normal current-commit runs and require their terminal results before merge.
  2. The documentation receipt and validation narrative are stale. They still bind the independent documentation review, focused tests, docs build, and managed-runtime qualification to 7e09ee508. Refresh the independent review and all revision-bound evidence for f32e641621, including the conflict resolution.

I did not merge. Re-review can proceed after current evidence is available.

This PR may remain one regression-repair batch because all six changes address deterministic, non-credential failures from E2E run 31895698451. They restore established runtime, recovery, onboarding, and platform-evidence behavior. They do not introduce a supported integration.

Before merge, require:

  • all required checks on commit 6e9be93f5
  • passing managed OpenClaw runtime qualification
  • passing Podman CPU proof, with an unrelated runner-setup failure retried
  • the documentation receipt for 6e9be93f5
  • no unresolved correctness or security finding

Current CI blocks approval at latest PR commit 5977055c72fa1e6ec88a429b4735636172f02812.

cli-test-shards (3) failed in test/onboard-selection-anthropic-retry.test.ts:217: the NVIDIA API key prompt reached EOF (Prompt closed before input), returned exit code 1, and caused the aggregate cli-tests and checks failures. The managed OpenClaw startup check is also still running.

The failing test is outside this PR's effective diff, so this may be an existing test-isolation failure rather than a behavior regression. Approval still requires a successful current rerun or a maintainer-approved waiver with the failing log and follow-up issue. Refresh the broad-gate evidence after that decision.

Reviewed the complete 22-file diff and one-file delta at latest PR commit 3a3723832ed633034ff4893d7d0731abaa79dab9.

The latest test-only commit fixes the prior CLI-shard failure by updating the Anthropic retry fixture to the existing native tool_use event sequence. It changes no production behavior or security boundary. The independent docs-updated review and receipt are current, and maintainer comment 5306108111 records the accepted combined regression-repair scope and required evidence.

No new code or documentation blocker was found in the latest delta. Approval still waits on terminal gates: the Nemotron advisor failed, CodeQL, managed-image/runtime checks, and several CLI shards remain in progress, and the accepted scope decision requires passing managed OpenClaw qualification and Podman CPU proof for this commit.

Reviewed the complete 22-file diff and the one-file delta at latest PR commit 9df0ac8200d337d862a5843223d92959e1f91204.

The latest test covers the terminal recovery case already implemented and documented: three healthy gateway probes, three failed inference requests, two 2-second inter-attempt delays, and an unhealthy result. It changes no production behavior or security boundary. The independent docs-updated review and receipt are current, and the primary Advisor reports no blocker.

No new source or documentation blocker was found. Approval still waits on terminal evidence:

  • PR build and direct managed startup (Hermes) failed during Docker Buildx setup because Docker Hub returned HTTP 502 before any PR image build or test step. This is infrastructure failure, not evidence against the change, but the required job still needs a passing current-commit result or a recorded maintainer waiver.
  • Nemotron failed after a partial review, and several CodeQL, managed-image, Podman lifecycle, and CLI lanes remain in progress.

I did not rerun the resource-creating managed-image workflow.

Reviewed the complete 23-file diff and the one-file delta at latest PR commit 6e9be93f53341768bd5882e8864013721f37dcea.

The latest commit only extends the existing structured-recovery test timeout from 15 to 30 seconds after repeated coverage timeouts. It changes no assertions, product behavior, or security boundary. The independent docs-updated receipt is checked and current, and the owning command/platform documentation remains accurate.

No new code or documentation blocker was found. The new commit restarted the required gates, so the prior Docker Hub 502 is superseded by the current run. Approval waits for terminal Advisor, CodeQL, managed-image, Podman lifecycle, static/build, and CLI results. I did not rerun or dispatch any resource-creating workflow.

## Summary

Add an advisory same-commit E2E reliability report that separates
trusted main pushes from manual qualification runs and measures
first-pass, retry-recovery, exhausted, superseded, flip, and fixed
failure-class outcomes without exposing artifact payloads.

## Related Issue

Closes #9168.

## Changes

- Add a post-evaluation workflow job that writes a Markdown step summary
and uploads bounded JSON and Markdown reports with 14-day retention.
- Stream bounded JSON and Markdown through separate workflow channels
into the documented artifact files and job summary.
- Align the existing Anthropic retry fixture with the native tool-call
contract already documented by #9236.
- Add a reporter that groups completed E2E history by candidate commit
and provenance and emits only allowlisted aggregate fields.
- Authenticate manual-run identity with the run-bound dispatch receipt
and terminal outcome with canonical run-, attempt-, candidate-,
workflow-, and job-status-bound evidence manifests.
- Keep retry and runner-pressure evidence as narrower failure-class
evidence, expose complete/missing/malformed states separately, and
prevent malformed classification data from erasing an authenticated
outcome.
- Bind trusted-main retry artifacts to a validated `NVIDIA/NemoClaw`
controller run from `.github/workflows/e2e-main-retry.yaml`, rejecting
missing provenance and duplicate artifact names.
- Lock the reporter job to the canonical source repository, E2E
workflow, main branch, and trusted `github.workflow_sha` checkout with
an executable source-shape contract.
- Structurally validate artifact ZIP entries against ambiguous paths,
duplicates, links, encryption, ZIP64/split archives, invalid UTF-8,
unsupported compression, inconsistent headers, excess entries, size
bounds, and CRC mismatches.
- Add synthetic coverage for authenticated passing and failing terminal
evidence, missing terminal evidence, malformed failure classes,
same-commit grouping, retries, exhaustion, flips, controller provenance,
artifact-name collisions, fixed classes, and credential-negative output.
- Document identity, outcome, failure-class, job-summary, artifact,
retention, and ZIP validation semantics in `test/e2e/README.md`.

## 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] Docs updated for user-facing behavior changes
- [ ] Docs 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:
#9237 (review)
records the complete security review through `790ab125c`.
#9237 (review)
confirms that the stream-capture repair at `4aa14aa39` aligns the
publication contract and adds no security blocker. The timeout
correction at `411dff12c` and Anthropic fixture correction at
`1e9a971da` are test-only.
- [ ] Non-success, skipped, or missing CI check accepted by maintainer —
check name, approval link, and follow-up issue:

## Documentation Writer Review

- [x] Documentation writer subagent reviewed the completed changes
- Result: `docs-updated`
- Evidence: `test/e2e/README.md`; the prior complete-PR review through
`790ab125c` remains valid. Extended review through commit under review
`1e9a971da` confirmed that `4aa14aa39` preserves the documented JSON
artifact, Markdown artifact, job-summary table, allowlisted contents,
and retention behavior while changing only stream capture. `411dff12c`
changes only a test timeout. `1e9a971da` changes only the Anthropic
retry fixture to match #9236’s documented native tool-call contract; the
identical #9219 correction passed GitHub shard 3 at `9df0ac820`. No
additional documentation is needed. The prior Markdownlint, format
check, and docs build evidence remains applicable because the later
commits do not change documentation.

## DGX Station Hardware Evidence

- [ ] Tested on DGX Station
- Tested commit:
- Station profile/scenario:

- Supporting evidence:

## Verification

- [x] PR description includes a `Signed-off-by:` line and every commit
appears as `Verified` in GitHub
- [x] Normal `pre-commit`, `commit-msg`, and `pre-push` hooks passed, or
applicable local gates passed after refreshing `origin/main`
- [x] Targeted behavior tests pass for the current change set, or tests
are marked not applicable above — 28 E2E-support tests passed at
`790ab125c`; `4aa14aa39` adds seven assertions to the existing
reliability test, and `411dff12c` changes only a test timeout. The
startup test command in the fresh fork checkout stopped before running
tests because the shared plugin artifact was not built. The identical
Anthropic fixture correction passed #9219 GitHub shard 3 at `9df0ac820`.
Current GitHub CI provides revision-bound validation.
- [x] Applicable broad gate passed — GitHub CI and managed-runtime
qualification passed for PR commit `1e9a971da`; the primary advisor and
publisher reported no findings, while the second-opinion lane repeated
an advisor protocol fault after one retry
- [x] Quality Gates section completed with required justifications or
waivers
- [x] No secrets, API keys, or credentials committed
- [ ] `npm run docs` builds without warnings (doc changes only)
- [ ] Doc pages follow the [style
guide](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/blob/main/docs/CONTRIBUTING.md)
(doc changes only)
- [ ] New doc pages include SPDX header and frontmatter (new pages only)

The repository-wide test wrapper stopped before running tests because
the existing local `nemoclaw` package installation lacks `json5` and
`tar`; the directly applicable E2E support tests and root typecheck
above completed successfully.

The documentation-only repair at `790ab125c` passed `npm exec
markdownlint-cli2 -- test/e2e/README.md`, `npm run format:check`, and
`npm run docs`; Fern reported 0 errors and 2 non-blocking warnings.
