Add channels.telegram.linkPreview config to control whether link previews
are shown in outbound messages. When set to false, uses Telegram's
link_preview_options.is_disabled to suppress URL previews.
- Add linkPreview to TelegramAccountConfig type
- Add Zod schema validation for linkPreview
- Pass link_preview_options to sendMessage in send.ts and bot/delivery.ts
- Propagate linkPreview config through deliverReplies callers
- Add tests for link preview behavior
Fixes#1675

Follow-up to #1609 fix:
- Remove formUnsafe check from canSave (was blocking save even with valid changes)
- Suppress disconnect message for code 1012 (service restart is expected during config save)

Add documentation for running Clawdbot in a sandboxed macOS VM
using Lume. This provides an alternative to buying dedicated
hardware or using cloud instances.
The guide covers:
- Installing Lume on Apple Silicon Macs
- Creating and configuring a macOS VM
- Installing Clawdbot inside the VM
- Running headlessly for 24/7 operation
- iMessage integration via BlueBubbles
- Saving golden images for easy reset
Adds support for Brave Search API's freshness parameter to filter results
by discovery time:
- 'pd' - Past 24 hours
- 'pw' - Past week
- 'pm' - Past month
- 'py' - Past year
- 'YYYY-MM-DDtoYYYY-MM-DD' - Custom date range
Useful for cron jobs and monitoring tasks that need recent results.
Note: Perplexity provider ignores this parameter (Brave only).

🤖 AI-assisted: This PR was created with Claude (Opus). Lightly tested via
build script. The change follows existing patterns for optional parameters
(country, search_lang, ui_lang).
## Problem
The clawdbot-gateway systemd service was crash-looping on Linux (Fedora 42,
aarch64) with the error:
error: unknown command '/usr/bin/node-22'
After ~20 seconds of runtime, the gateway would exit with status 1/FAILURE
and systemd would restart it, repeating the cycle indefinitely (80+ restarts
observed).
## Root Cause Analysis
### Investigation Steps
1. Examined systemd service logs via `journalctl --user -u clawdbot-gateway.service`
2. Found the error appeared consistently after the service had been running
for 20-30 seconds
3. Added debug logging to trace argv at parseAsync() call
4. Discovered that argv was being passed to Commander.js with the node binary
and script paths still present: `["/usr/bin/node-22", "/path/to/entry.js", "gateway", "--port", "18789"]`
5. Traced the issue to the lazy subcommand registration logic in runCli()
### The Bug
The lazy-loading logic for subcommands was gated behind `hasHelpOrVersion(parseArgv)`:
```typescript
if (hasHelpOrVersion(parseArgv)) {
const primary = getPrimaryCommand(parseArgv);
if (primary) {
const { registerSubCliByName } = await import("./program/register.subclis.js");
await registerSubCliByName(program, primary);
}
}
```
This meant that when running `clawdbot gateway --port 18789` (without --help
or --version), the `gateway` subcommand was never registered before
`program.parseAsync(parseArgv)` was called. Commander.js would then try to
parse the arguments without knowing about the gateway command, leading to
parse errors.
The error message "unknown command '/usr/bin/node-22'" appeared because
Commander was treating the first positional argument as a command name due to
argv not being properly stripped on non-Windows platforms in some code paths.
## The Fix
Remove the `hasHelpOrVersion()` gate and always register the primary
subcommand when one is detected:
```typescript
// Register the primary subcommand if one exists (for lazy-loading)
const primary = getPrimaryCommand(parseArgv);
if (primary) {
const { registerSubCliByName } = await import("./program/register.subclis.js");
await registerSubCliByName(program, primary);
}
```
This ensures that subcommands like `gateway` are properly registered before
parsing begins, regardless of what flags are present.
## Environment
- OS: Fedora 42 (Linux 6.15.9-201.fc42.aarch64)
- Arch: aarch64
- Node: /usr/bin/node-22 (symlink to node-22)
- Deployment: systemd user service
- Runtime: Gateway started via `clawdbot gateway --port 18789`
## Why This Should Be Merged
1. **Critical Bug**: The gateway service cannot run reliably on Linux without
this fix, making it a blocking issue for production deployments via systemd.
2. **Affects All Non-Help Invocations**: Any direct subcommand invocation
(gateway, channels, etc.) without --help/--version is broken.
3. **Simple & Safe Fix**: The change removes an unnecessary condition that was
preventing lazy-loading from working correctly. Subcommands should always be
registered when detected, not just for help/version requests.
4. **No Regression Risk**: The fix maintains the lazy-loading behavior (only
loads the requested subcommand), just ensures it works in all cases instead
of only help/version scenarios.
5. **Tested**: Verified that the gateway service now runs stably for extended
periods (45+ seconds continuous runtime with no crashes) after applying this
fix.
