OpenClaw Signals: Custom Schedulers, Plugin State, and Context-Aware Limits

Tools

Custom Scheduler Interface (PR #329)

This PR lets you swap out the built-in scheduler for your own. If you have specific latency or batching needs, this gives you direct control without forking.

Compact Mode for Event Serialization (PR #327)

Smaller serialization payloads mean faster events. Low-hanging fruit for performance if your setup is event-heavy.

Analysis

State Persistence on Plugin Exit (Issue #1560)

A critical discussion on plugin lifecycle management. If you're running stateful plugins, you need to watch this thread to prevent data corruption during updates.

News

Context-Aware Rate Limiting (PR #328)

The default rate limiter is getting smart about where requests come from. This should help keep shared instances stable without manual tuning.
