@@ -19,6 +19,7 @@ Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai
 - CLI/Install: add an npm-link fallback to fix CLI startup `Permission denied` failures (`exit 127`) on affected installs. (#17151) Thanks @sskyu and @vincentkoc.
 - Agents/Ollama: demote empty-discovery logging from `warn` to `debug` to reduce noisy warnings in normal edge-case discovery flows. (#26379) Thanks @byungsker.
 - Install/npm: fix npm global install deprecation warnings. (#28318) Thanks @vincentkoc.
+- Slack/Native commands: register Slack native status as `/agentstatus` (Slack-reserved `/status`) so manifest slash command registration stays valid while text `/status` still works. Landed from contributor PR #29032 by @maloqab. Thanks @maloqab.
 - Android/Nodes reliability: reject `facing=both` when `deviceId` is set to avoid mislabeled duplicate captures, allow notification `open`/`reply` on non-clearable entries while still gating dismiss, trigger listener rebind before notification actions, and scale invoke-result ack timeout to invoke budget for large clip payloads. (#28260) Thanks @obviyus.
 - Android/Camera clip: remove `camera.clip` HTTP-upload fallback to base64 so clip transport is deterministic and fail-loud, and reject non-positive `maxWidth` values so invalid inputs fall back to the safe resize default. (#28229) Thanks @obviyus.
 - Android/Gateway canvas capability refresh: send `node.canvas.capability.refresh` with object `params` (`{}`) from Android node runtime so gateway object-schema validation accepts refresh retries and A2UI host recovery works after scoped capability expiry. (#28413) Thanks @obviyus.

 - Native command auto-mode is **off** for Slack (`commands.native: "auto"` does not enable Slack native commands).
 - Enable native Slack command handlers with `channels.slack.commands.native: true` (or global `commands.native: true`).
-- When native commands are enabled, register matching slash commands in Slack (`/<command>` names).
+- When native commands are enabled, register matching slash commands in Slack (`/<command>` names), with one exception:
+  - register `/agentstatus` for the status command (Slack reserves `/status`)
 - If native commands are not enabled, you can run a single configured slash command via `channels.slack.slashCommand`.
 - Native arg menus now adapt their rendering strategy:
   - up to 5 options: button blocks

   - Telegram: `telegram:slash:<userId>` (targets the chat session via `CommandTargetSessionKey`)
 - **`/stop`** targets the active chat session so it can abort the current run.
 - **Slack:** `channels.slack.slashCommand` is still supported for a single `/openclaw`-style command. If you enable `commands.native`, you must create one Slack slash command per built-in command (same names as `/help`). Command argument menus for Slack are delivered as ephemeral Block Kit buttons.
+  - Slack native exception: register `/agentstatus` (not `/status`) because Slack reserves `/status`. Text `/status` still works in Slack messages.
