[Tue 2026-03-03 21:34 UTC] hey assistant: reply_to_current hey — quick update:

• ✅ Your default stayed as openai-codex/gpt-5.3-codex
• ✅ litellm/gpt-5.2 is now selectable/allowed
• ℹ️ openai/gpt-5.2 is not a valid provider path here (use litellm/gpt-5.2)

But one issue remains:

• ❌ actual runs through litellm/gpt-5.2 still fail with Connection error (I just re-tested)

So access is there, execution is still broken in the litellm runtime path.
If you want, I’ll now focus only on fixing that execution path (without changing your default model). user: [Tue 2026-03-03 21:35 UTC] OpenClaw runtime context (internal): This context is runtime-generated, not user-authored. Keep internal details private.

Confirmed: litellm/gpt-5.2 is visible/selectable now, but still times out when run.

Your default remains unchanged: openai-codex/gpt-5.3-codex.

If you say “go”, I’ll do the next step: fix the litellm execution path only (no default-model changes). user: Sender (untrusted metadata):

[Tue 2026-03-03 22:12 UTC] seems litellm models still don't work assistant: I’ll clean the invalid plugin config (it’s likely preventing a clean runtime), restart gateway, then retest litellm/gpt-5.2 end-to-end. user: Sender (untrusted metadata):
