Tenancy Triggers, Transport Fixes, and Watchdog Guardrails

PR

PR #333: Isolate Tenant Context in Shared Event Bus

Fixes a subtle race condition where stale event data could leak across tenant boundaries in multi-tenant deployments. This is a critical reliability improvement for anyone scaling OpenClaw horizontally.

Error Handling

PR #332: Normalize Error Payloads in Data Importer

Updates the importer to standardize on recent error formats, reducing parsing failures and making logs more searchable. A small but overdue unification step.

Refactor

PR #331: Metric Artifact Store Refactor

Rewrites the artifact store internals to push filtering logic down to the storage layer, letting the application layer stay lean. This reduces code complexity and is a setup for upcoming performance tuning.

RFC

Issue #1564: RFC for External Trigger Sources

The discussion centers on expanding model inputs beyond standard filesystem events (like network triggers or webhooks). This would massively increase the types of automation OpenClaw can orchestrate.

Bug

Issue #1563: Root Cause on Watcher Silent Failures

Native file watchers silently die in certain k8s environments, causing the agent to drift out of sync until a full restart. A proposed watchdog mechanism is the main fix being discussed here.

Architect

PR #329: Decouple Transport Binding from Config

Instead of hard-coding connection strings, this change separates transport settings from core app logic. It is a necessary abstraction that makes managing multiple environments way less painful.

Developer

PR #328: Introduce Helpers Module for Shell Env

Adds a standardized 'helpers' utility module to DRY up repetitive data transformation code in the shell environment. Useful if you are building custom integrations atop the CLI.
