+# 微信文本-图片缓存隔离事故报告
+
+## 结论
+
+本次事故已经按最新备份链路回滚并完成第二轮评审修复。`3d9782fc346d1e7defde090ab8637e62ab28ab8a` 进一步修复了英文诊断文本和未确认引用文本误入图片路径的问题，`706c0b0` 则是后续最小修复提交。当前文档只记录证据、部署和验收边界，不把“真实 owner inbound 已完成”写成结论。
+
+## 现象
+
+- 纯文本消息被误答成旧图片回复，属于 stale-image reply on pure text。
+- 现场证据显示 `types=1` 且 `hasMedia=false`，但后续又进入 `message_type=image`、`image_count=0`、`implicit_image_message`，最终落到 `cached_image_expired`。
+- 这说明“诊断文本”被误判成图片意图后，又继承了 sender 级旧图缓存。
+
+## 根因
+
+- `fixes/patch_openclaw_weixin_hermes.py:768-839` 把文本意图判断和缓存回退放在同一条链上。
+- `looksLikeHermesImageFollowup()` 会把含图片关键字的诊断文本推进 image intent。
+- `resolveHermesFollowupImageContext()` 随后会读取 sender 级缓存；一旦缓存命中失败或过期，就会落到 `cached_image_expired`，从而让纯文本沾上旧图上下文。
+- `handleHermesImplicitImage()` 继续把消息送入 `handleHermes(..., "implicit_image_message")`，所以误判会沿着同一条图片处理通道传播。
+
+## 护栏不变量
+
+- 图片处理上下文必须来自当前消息图片、已确认的引用图片，或精确匹配的缓存图片 ID；缺少这三类证据时，纯文本不能进入 `handleHermesImplicitImage()`。
+- 未确认的引用文本不能继承 sender 级旧图缓存，必须返回 `referenced_image_not_confirmed`。
+- 只有精确缓存图片 ID 命中且缓存仍有效时，才允许走 `resolveHermesCachedImageEntry()` 的 `cached_image_matched` 路径。
+- `/hermes` 这类 slash 路径保持原有分流，slash/channel 面不变。
+- 这次修复的守卫目标，是把中英文诊断文本、未确认引用文本与图片缓存回退拆开，避免再把普通文本提升成图片意图。
+
+## TDD 与幂等性
+
+- `66d637fc0364a617c7b9fd8cd9baa68fb0368675`（`fix(weixin): isolate text from stale image cache`）引入了隔离修复和 `tests/test_weixin_image_followup_intent.py`。
+- `2de29c59bb946cc3db3e14e8a06270391ede8401`（`fix(weixin): add process-only runtime patch mode`）继续收紧 process-only 运行模式，保持回放幂等。
+- `3d9782fc346d1e7defde090ab8637e62ab28ab8a`（`fix(weixin): require confirmed image reference context`）补齐英文诊断文本和未确认引用文本用例，并把图片引用收紧到已确认上下文。
+- 用户实测的 TDD 路径为 RED `8 PASS / 1 FAIL`，随后 GREEN `9 PASS`。
+- 最小修复提交为 `706c0b0`，对应 quoted pure text 的最后一层收敛修复。
+- 第二轮回归结果为 `8 PASS`；node check 同样通过，重复应用补丁保持幂等。
+- 生产 npm 分发侧本身缺少 `tsconfig/tests`，baseline 与 patched 共享这一限制，所以这里不把分发目录的缺口当成回归点；验收以 node check 和 8 tests 为准。
+
+## 用户实测补充
+
+- 普通文本两项为 PASS。
+- quoted pure text 为 FAIL，日志证据包含 `ref_msg.message_item.type=0/NONE`、quoted id、`implicit_image_message`、`referenced_image_unresolved`。
+- 这组证据说明 quoted pure text 没有被当成真正的图片 follow-up，且没有越过引用确认边界。
+
+## 回滚与备份
+
+- 回滚按最新备份执行，基线指向 `/data/aios-gitops/runtime/latest-backup-dir.txt` 所示的最新备份目录。
+- 备份路径链路按供给证据记录为 `T064506Z`、`T074212Z`、`T081658Z`。
+- 第一轮恢复后的部署过程哈希记录为 `e9625d12` 和 `c00c58f8`。
+- v2 部署备份为 `/var/backups/aios/weixin-text-cache-isolation-20260711T094908Z`。
+- v2 部署文件哈希为 TS `024c6498284d1871b048f6157d5d3dbd4d34e54b53a05afd744b00458ceeb79f`、JS `d73b15d6752056192a1d1939b04107334419785b41175b39f1cbc1132ac65c47`；slash/channel 口径保持不变。
+- 首次部署因为 `-- No entries --` 门禁误判而回滚，随后纠正部署在线，PID 为 `2496603`。
+- 在线修复后的 hashes 为 `86dfe...` / `a9b854...`，`channel 4` accounts healthy，cache unchanged。
+
+## 运行态验证
+
+- 第一轮 gateway PID 由 `4025932` 变为 `1723576`；v2 部署后由 `1723576` 变为 `1876713`。
+- v2 现场/供给证据为 `active`、监听 `18789`、`error_count=0`、`channel gate pass`、`cache preserved`。
+- 最终 read-only gate 通过，说明部署后运行态未出现新的插件错误，channel 状态和缓存均保持预期。
+- quoted pure text 的第二次 owner live acceptance 仍为 PENDING。
+
+## 未完成的真实验收
+
+- owner 纯文本
+- diagnostic text
+- genuine image-followup message
+- quoted pure text 的第二次 owner live acceptance
+
+以上四类消息仍需要由 owner 真实 inbound 到达，才能把这次“文本隔离”结论升格为完整的线上接受；本报告明确保留该项为 pending，不把它们写成已经完成。
+
+## 安全说明
+
+- 本次仅更新本报告，没有修改代码、runtime、services 或 secrets。
+- 报告里没有任何凭据、密钥或原始敏感 ID。

+# V1R4C4 SR-01: Gitea Branch Sync Fix
+
+Status: started
+
+Priority: P0
+
+Risk: medium
+
+Baseline dependency: V1R4C3
+
+## Decision
+
+Start V1R4C4 with SR-01 only.
+
+SR-04 Portal AIOS Integration Merge remains deferred and is not part of this execution scope.
+
+## Background
+
+V1R4C3 completed the immediate branch_sync mitigation by changing branch synchronization to use `git ls-remote` instead of depending on the Gitea branch API pagination path.
+
+That mitigation avoids the user-visible failure path, but it does not fully certify or eliminate the root reliability issue:
+
+```text
+bare repository refs
+        !=
+Gitea branch metadata / DB index
+        !=
+Gitea branch API visible state
+```
+
+SR-01 exists to validate and fix the root problem category: Gitea branch metadata/index drift from the bare repository state.
+
+## Scope
+
+SR-01 includes:
+
+1. Confirm current branch_sync no longer depends on Gitea API pagination.
+2. Validate that Gitea DB branch metadata is consistent with bare repository refs.
+3. Add or activate consistency verification around branch metadata drift.
+4. Ensure autonomous operations do not continue mutating state when drift is detected.
+5. Produce a repeatable acceptance test for future incidents.
+
+SR-01 excludes:
+
+- Portal AIOS Integration Merge.
+- Search Gateway real provider binding.
+- Broad P1 capability merges.
+- Bulk patch merge or branch deletion.
+
+## Required Checks
+
+### Branch sync path
+
+Verify branch_sync source of truth:
+
+```text
+git ls-remote / bare repository refs
+```
+
+The Gitea branch API must not be the mandatory source of truth for synchronization.
+
+### Gitea consistency path
+
+Verify equality between:
+
+```text
+bare repository refs count
+Gitea branch live metadata count
+Gitea branch API paginated visible count
+```
+
+Any mismatch must be treated as reliability drift.
+
+### Safe-mode behavior
+
+When drift is detected:
+
+1. Stop autonomous mutations.
+2. Preserve read-only diagnostics.
+3. Emit safe-mode marker.
+4. Require controlled recovery before mutation resumes.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+SR-01 is complete when all of the following are true:
+
+1. branch_sync continues to work without Gitea branch API pagination dependency.
+2. Gitea branch metadata drift can be detected deterministically.
+3. Drift causes autonomous safe mode instead of continued mutation.
+4. Recovery procedure includes minimal repair, not default restart.
+5. Runtime acceptance passes:
+
+```text
+getRuntimeStatus
+    ->
+getBaseline
+    ->
+createBranch
+    ->
+createPatch
+```
+
+Expected results:
+
+- runtime status is active;
+- baseline reads V1R4C3 or later;
+- createBranch returns commit/rev/sync status;
+- createPatch returns commit/rev/sync status.
+
+## Execution Order
+
+1. Open SR-01 patch branch.
+2. Review V1R4C3 branch_sync behavior.
+3. Integrate Gitea branch consistency sentinel and safe-mode gate.
+4. Run runtime acceptance.
+5. If clean, prepare V1R4C4 reliability baseline proposal.
+
+## Follow-on Gates
+
+SR-02 Watcher State Cleanup may start after SR-01 acceptance is green.
+
+SR-03 Search Gateway Real Provider Binding may start after SR-01 confirms GitOps/Gitea reliability is stable enough for non-P0 work.
+
+SR-04 Portal AIOS Integration Merge remains deferred pending explicit approval.
+
+## Safety Rules
+
+- Do not bulk merge old patches.
+- Do not delete remote branches during SR-01 unless the branch consistency sentinel is already deployed and healthy.
+- Do not restart Gitea unless process-level failure is proven.
+- Do not modify Gitea DB without backup and owner/admin approval.
