openclaw 2026.3.24-beta.2 on Node.js NPM

Outbound media/local files: align outbound media access with the configured fs policy so host-local files and inbound-media paths keep sending when workspaceOnly is off, while strict workspace-only agents remain sandboxed.
Runtime/install: lower the supported Node 22 floor to 22.14+ while continuing to recommend Node 24, so npm installs and self-updates do not strand Node 22.14 users on older releases.
CLI/update: preflight the target npm package engines.node before openclaw update runs a global package install, so outdated Node runtimes fail with a clear upgrade message instead of attempting an unsupported latest release.
Tests/security audit: isolate audit-test home and personal skill resolution so local ~/.agents/skills installs no longer make maintainer prep runs fail nondeterministically. (#54473) thanks @huntharo
