Running OpenClaw 2026.4.2 on macOS. Slack channel is configured and enabled but keeps failing with:
Bundled plugin public surface access blocked for "slack" via slack/runtime-api.js: no bundled plugin manifest found for slack
Plugin shows as loaded in openclaw plugins list (version 2026.4.1-beta.1) but gateway won't start it. Tried reinstalling and restarting — same error. All Telegram channels working fine.
Anyone else seeing this? Any fix?

Yeah — this usually means plugin discovery is seeing a Slack runtime file but not a matching manifest record (often from a mixed/stale install path).
The 2026.4.2 core + Slack plugin 2026.4.1-beta.1 combo is a red flag for that.
Try this exact cleanup flow:
openclaw --version
which -a openclaw
openclaw plugins doctor
openclaw doctor --fix
openclaw plugins inspect slack --json
In inspect, Slack should ideally show origin: "bundled" and a rootDir under your current OpenClaw install.
If it doesn’t, reset Slack plugin state:
openclaw plugins uninstall slack
openclaw plugins install slack --force
openclaw plugins enable slack
openclaw gateway restart
openclaw status --all
Also check for a stale bundled path override:
echo "$OPENCLAW_BUNDLED_PLUGINS_DIR"
openclaw config get plugins.load.paths
