What's New
Savings Measurement Fix
- Loop detection now estimates 15K tokens saved per caught loop (was logging 0)
- Quality nudges now estimate 10K tokens recovered per nudge (was logging 0)
- Your dashboard will finally show real savings numbers instead of $0.02
New Detectors
- Output waste: 3-signal detector for excessive output tokens
- Cache instability: flags CLAUDE.md patterns that break prompt cache prefix
Activity Intelligence
- Mode detection: 10-tool sliding window classifies session mode
- Mode-aware compaction: PRESERVE/DROP adapts to what you are doing
- Decision extraction: detects chose/decided/going with patterns in real-time
- Anchored compact state: persists across compaction cycles
OpenClaw v2.4.0
- Output waste detector ported to TypeScript (16 detectors total)
Quality Fixes
- Catastrophic regex backtracking eliminated
- Activity log bounded with automatic pruning
- Vacuous truth on empty tool lists fixed
- Rollback guard prevents leaked implicit transactions
