Users have reported confusion about "when will ClawPanel update its
gateway protocol to v4". This is actually a misreading: ClawPanel v0.15+
already advertises `minProtocol=3, maxProtocol=4` in its connect frame,
and negotiates v4 transparently when the kernel is >= 2026.5.12. The
`v3|` prefix users were seeing in dev-api.js is the device signature
payload string schema version, which is a completely separate concept
from the handshake protocol version.
Make this visible and unambiguous:
UI
- Add a "Proto v4" badge next to the Gateway service name in
/services once the WS handshake succeeds, with a tooltip explaining
that this is the WS handshake protocol version (not the device
signature payload v3 format).
- Add the same protocol info to the WebSocket row in /chat-debug.
API
- WsClient now exposes `negotiatedProtocol` which prefers the explicit
field from the hello payload (`protocol` / `protocolVersion` /
`negotiatedProtocol`) and falls back to inferring from serverVersion:
kernels >= 2026.5.12 are reported as v4, older as v3. This matches
the panel's advertised range of [3, 4].
- KernelSnapshot grows a `protocol` field so feature gates and UIs that
already consume the snapshot can read it without touching wsClient.
Comments
- Expand the KERNEL_TARGET comment in feature-catalog.js to spell out
the two-distinct-version-numbers rule explicitly.
- Add matching clarifying comments next to the `v3|...` payload string
in both scripts/dev-api.js and src-tauri/src/commands/device.rs, so
the next reader does not confuse payload schema with handshake.
## Verification
- node --check on all touched JS files
- npm run build
- cargo fmt --check && cargo check (clippy errors that surface are
pre-existing debt in config.rs, untouched here)
- Playwright /services: mock wsClient state, observe `协议 v4` badge
rendered with `rgba(99, 102, 241, 0.1)` background and accent color,
for both the explicit-protocol path and the version-inferred path.
Add a model client import flow that scans local Codex, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and common environment variable configurations without reading or copying OAuth tokens.
The new backend command returns safe import candidates with provider metadata, model IDs, and API key environment-variable references. Tauri and Web/dev-api both implement the scanner, and Web mode keeps the scan local even when a remote instance is active.
The Models page now offers an import wizard that lets users select importable candidates, adds providers without overwriting existing keys, preserves secrets as ${ENV_VAR} references, and leaves OAuth-only Codex entries as guidance rather than direct OpenClaw imports.
## Verification
- node --check src/pages/models.js
- node --check src/lib/tauri-api.js
- node --check src/locales/modules/models.js
- node --check scripts/dev-api.js
- cargo fmt --check
- cargo check
- npm run build
The runtime locale JSON bundles still contained the older About/Services policy copy even after the module-level strings were updated, so the About page could continue to show the old "recommended only" message in Chinese.
This syncs the zh-CN/en locale bundles with the latest-upstream upgrade copy and mirrors the suffixed OpenClaw version comparison fix in the Web dev API.
## Verification
- npm run build
- node --check scripts/dev-api.js
- cargo check
