 - OpenAI/Streaming transport: make `openai` Responses WebSocket-first by default (`transport: "auto"` with SSE fallback), add shared OpenAI WS stream/connection runtime wiring with per-session cleanup, and preserve server-side compaction payload mutation (`store` + `context_management`) on the WS path.
 - Android/Gateway capability refresh: add live Android capability integration coverage and node canvas capability refresh wiring, plus runtime hardening for A2UI readiness retries, scoped canvas URL normalization, debug diagnostics JSON, and JavaScript MIME delivery. (#28388) Thanks @obviyus.
 - Android/Nodes parity: add `system.notify`, `photos.latest`, `contacts.search`/`contacts.add`, `calendar.events`/`calendar.add`, and `motion.activity`/`motion.pedometer`, with motion sensor-aware command gating and improved activity sampling reliability. (#29398) Thanks @obviyus.
+- CLI/Config: add `openclaw config file` to print the active config file path resolved from `OPENCLAW_CONFIG_PATH` or default locations. (#26256) thanks @cyb1278588254.
 - Feishu/Docx tables + uploads: add `feishu_doc` actions for Docx table creation/cell writing (`create_table`, `write_table_cells`, `create_table_with_values`) and image/file uploads (`upload_image`, `upload_file`) with stricter create/upload error handling for missing `document_id` and placeholder cleanup failures. (#20304) Thanks @xuhao1.
 - Feishu/Reactions: add inbound `im.message.reaction.created_v1` handling, route verified reactions through synthetic inbound turns, and harden verification with timeout + fail-closed filtering so non-bot or unverified reactions are dropped. (#16716) Thanks @schumilin.
 - Feishu/Chat tooling: add `feishu_chat` tool actions for chat info and member queries, with configurable enablement under `channels.feishu.tools.chat`. (#14674) Thanks @liuweifly.
