docs(changelog): correct contributor count — four of six PRs are @vvlasy-openclaw's, not two (release reviewer)

Consolidates #179/#153/#154/#183/#181/#182 (merged since the v3.23.0 tag).
3.23.0 → 3.24.0.

Minor: four user-facing features (multimodal vision #154, structured outputs
#153, SPOT-derived prompt budget #179, OCP_LOCAL_TOOLS #182) + two fixes
(#183 agentic final-answer, #181 deep-reply-500). No breaking change; no new
endpoint; no new cli.js wire behavior. Two features from @vvlasy-openclaw.

Release-kit walk: new env vars all documented in-PR (CLAUDE_IMAGE_ALLOW_URL /
CLAUDE_MAX_IMAGE_* #154, OCP_STRUCTURED_MAX_ATTEMPTS #153, OCP_LOCAL_TOOLS #182 —
grepped present in README env table); ADR 0009 (#179) + ADR 0006 (B.1, #153/#154)
indexed; version from package.json only (no stale refs); the CHANGELOG Unreleased
section (which held #182) is retitled to v3.24.0 with the other five entries added.

Tag push v3.24.0 at this squash commit triggers release.yml.

-- **Claude Opus 5 (`claude-opus-5`), and the `opus` alias now resolves to it.** New `models.json` entry — `/v1/models` goes 6 → 7 and OpenClaw picks it up on the next `ocp update` (via `scripts/sync-openclaw.mjs`). Verified against the installed CLI rather than assumed: the compiled `claude` 2.1.220 bundle carries `latest_per_family:{fable:"claude-fable-5",opus:"claude-opus-5",sonnet:"claude-sonnet-5",haiku:"claude-haiku-4-5"}`, so repointing `opus` mirrors what the CLI itself defaults to — the same reasoning as #168 (sonnet → sonnet-5). Availability confirmed with a live `claude -p --model claude-opus-5` completion on the subscription pool. Pricing is unchanged from Opus 4.8 ($5/$25 per MTok, CLI registry `pricing:"tier_5_25"`), so the alias repoint carries no cost change. `claude-opus-4-8` is retained for pinning.
-- `contextWindow` is deliberately **200000**, not Opus 5's native 1M. Two reasons, both verified: (1) `MAX_PROMPT_CHARS` is a **single global** budget — `derivePromptCharBudget` takes `max(contextWindow) × 3` across *all* entries (`lib/prompt.mjs`), so a 1M entry would raise the truncation ceiling to 3,000,000 chars for `claude-haiku-4-5` too, which is genuinely 200k native, converting clean OCP-side truncation into an upstream API rejection; (2) OpenClaw scales its history budget linearly off this value (`contextWindow × maxHistoryShare × SAFETY_MARGIN` = `× 0.6`, plus an oversized-message threshold at `× 0.5`, per `compaction-planning` in OpenClaw 2026.7.1), and its own bundled registry hardcodes 200000 for Claude — the upstream request to raise it to 1M ([openclaw#22979](https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/issues/22979)) was closed *not planned*. A new regression test pins the invariant so a future 1M entry has to be a deliberate, reviewed change. Raising it for real needs per-model budgets — tracked separately, ADR-level.

 ## v3.24.0 — 2026-07-21
 
 Minor release. Headline: two long-requested **OpenAI-compat features** land — **multimodal vision** (`image_url` parts) and **structured outputs** (`response_format` / JSON schema). Also: the prompt-char budget now derives from the model SPOT instead of a hand-set constant, an agentic-turn bug that dropped the model's final answer is fixed, and `OCP_LOCAL_TOOLS` supports the OpenClaw-backend use case. Four of the six landed from external contributors (@vvlasy-openclaw). Every code PR carried a fresh-context reviewer (Iron Rule 10); no new endpoint, no new `cli.js` wire behavior.

 - **Callers see no API change.** The response is a normal OpenAI completion object or chunked SSE — identical wire format.
 - **Real streaming is opt-in (`OCP_TUI_STREAM=1`), and off by default.** By default TUI-mode buffers the full response and replays it as chunked SSE — you see a delay, then the complete response. Set `OCP_TUI_STREAM=1` and `stream:true` turns emit real SSE `delta.content` chunks as `claude` renders them, sourced from `claude`'s own `MessageDisplay` hook (byte-faithful raw markdown, on the subscription pool, no `-p`). Two honest caveats: granularity is **block-level** — the hook fires once per rendered block, so a handful of chunks per answer, scaling with length, not token-by-token; and it moves the **first** byte, not the last, so a consumer that must parse a complete reply gains nothing. The transcript stays authoritative: every streamed turn is asserted against it at the end, and a turn whose stream disagrees is **failed rather than served** (watch `tui.streamDivergences` on `/health`). Evidence: [`plans/2026-07-13-tui-latency/streaming-spike.md`](plans/2026-07-13-tui-latency/streaming-spike.md).
 - **Cache and singleflight work normally.** TUI-mode writes the buffered response to the cache on success; cache-hits skip the interactive turn entirely.
-- **The host's `CLAUDE.md` / auto-memory is never injected.** OCP is a proxy — the proxied client (OpenClaw / your IDE) owns its own context and memory. TUI-mode runs `claude` with `--safe-mode`, which disables all host customizations (CLAUDE.md, skills, plugins, hooks, MCP servers) while leaving auth, model selection, built-in tools, and permissions untouched — so a `CLAUDE.md` on the OCP host can never leak into a proxied turn and steer the answer, and the session still bills the subscription pool (`cc_entrypoint=cli`, unlike `--bare`). The `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_CLAUDE_MDS` / `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_AUTO_MEMORY` env vars are kept as a fallback (see #4). Built-in tool schemas + the interactive system prompt remain (the inherent ~20–35K context floor of interactive mode); MCP is hard-disabled. **Exception:** the two opt-in modes that deliberately need a customization `--safe-mode` would strip — real streaming (`OCP_TUI_STREAM`, which registers a `MessageDisplay` **hook** via `--settings`) and `OCP_TUI_FULL_TOOLS` (which grants an **MCP** / skills surface) — run without `--safe-mode` and rely on the env-var suppression alone.
+- **The host's `CLAUDE.md` / auto-memory is never injected.** OCP is a proxy — the proxied client (OpenClaw / your IDE) owns its own context and memory. TUI-mode always runs `claude` with `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_CLAUDE_MDS` + `CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_AUTO_MEMORY`, so a `CLAUDE.md` on the OCP host can never leak into proxied turns (verified live; see #4). Built-in tool schemas + the interactive system prompt remain (the inherent ~20–35K context floor of interactive mode); MCP is hard-disabled.
 - **Authenticate via `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` in a credential-isolated home (recommended).** tmux does not forward the parent process's env to the pane, so OCP sets the token explicitly on the spawned `claude` when `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` is present. With the env token set and `OCP_TUI_HOME` unset, OCP runs claude in a **credential-isolated home** (`$HOME/.ocp-tui/home`) that has **no `credentials.json`** — so the env token is the only credential and is authoritative, and claude never runs the token-refresh path. This both stops a stale `credentials.json` from shadowing the token and ends the refresh-token corruption behind the permanent `Please run /login · API Error: 401` (full two-layer root cause, live proof, and fix in [Troubleshooting § the permanent TUI-mode 401](troubleshooting.md#tui-401)). Transcripts land under the same isolated home, so the answer-reader is unaffected. Without the env token, claude falls back to the real home's `credentials.json` (byte-for-byte the previous behaviour). (The token is visible in `ps` on the pane command — acceptable for the single-user A-path; the multi-user B-path is refused at boot.) See ADR 0007 PR-C / PR-D amendments.
 - **Stale tmux sessions are reaped.** The pane's `claude` is a child of the tmux server (not OCP), so OCP cannot reap it directly; `claude` zombies can otherwise accumulate as `<defunct>` over a long-running host. OCP reaps them at boot and on a 15-min idle sweep by issuing `tmux kill-server` — but **only when no foreign tmux session remains** (it never disrupts a co-hosted `olp-tui-*` instance). See ADR 0007 PR-C amendment.
 - **Default path unchanged.** Unset `CLAUDE_TUI_MODE` and restart → `callClaude` / `callClaudeStreaming` are used again, byte-for-byte identical to today.
