 - Plugins/bundled channels: partition bundled channel lazy caches by active bundled root so `OPENCLAW_BUNDLED_PLUGINS_DIR` flips stop reusing stale plugin, setup, secrets, and runtime state. (#67200) Thanks @gumadeiras.
 - Packaging/plugins: prune common test/spec cargo from bundled plugin runtime dependencies and fail npm release validation if packaged test cargo reappears, keeping published tarballs leaner without plugin-specific special cases. (#67275) thanks @gumadeiras.
 - Agents/context + Memory: trim default startup/skills prompt budgets, cap `memory_get` excerpts by default with explicit continuation metadata, and keep QMD reads aligned with the same bounded excerpt contract so long sessions pull less context by default without losing deterministic follow-up reads.
+- Matrix/commands: skip DM pairing-store reads on room traffic now that room control-command authorization ignores pairing-store entries, keeping the room path narrower without changing room auth behavior. (#67325) Thanks @gumadeiras.

 ### Fixes
 
+- fix(matrix): block DM pairing-store entries from authorizing room control commands [AI-assisted]. (#67294) Thanks @pgondhi987.
 - Docker/build: verify `@matrix-org/matrix-sdk-crypto-nodejs` native bindings with `find` under `node_modules` instead of a hardcoded `.pnpm/...` path so pnpm v10+ virtual-store layouts no longer fail the image build. (#67143) thanks @ly85206559.
 - Matrix/E2EE: keep startup bootstrap conservative for passwordless token-auth bots, still attempt the guarded repair pass without requiring `channels.matrix.password`, and document the remaining password-UIA limitation. (#66228) Thanks @SARAMALI15792.
 - Cron/announce delivery: suppress mixed-content isolated cron announce replies that end with `NO_REPLY` so trailing silent sentinels no longer leak summary text to the target channel. (#65004) thanks @neo1027144-creator.
