I don't know if it was before 2026.04.24, that's the point where I have noticed it.

I think a lot of the tickets currently open have a similar problem but they see/show only one side of the problem.

plugin-runtime-deps, event_loop and gateway connection problems occur on every openclaw interaction / session (re)start

Root Cause

I don't know if it was before 2026.04.24, that's the point where I have noticed it.

I think a lot of the tickets currently open have a similar problem but they see/show only one side of the problem.

plugin-runtime-deps, event_loop and gateway connection problems occur on every openclaw interaction / session (re)start

Summary

I don't know if it was before 2026.04.24, that's the point where I have noticed it.

I think a lot of the tickets currently open have a similar problem but they see/show only one side of the problem.

plugin-runtime-deps, event_loop and gateway connection problems occur on every openclaw interaction / session (re)start

Steps to reproduce

I have setup openclaw fresh, added my memories from a previous installation (on a M1 Mac) and got similar results

Expected behavior

Messages should return in a reasonable time, without warnings in the log, without restarting gateway, without constantly reinstalling dependency deps.

Actual behavior

The System feels unstable, unreliable, slow and does not feels working as expected atm.

I have a lot of log messages like shown below.

When I ask my openclaw to identify why it has a gateway connection error it told me the times it needed:

core-plugin-tools: ~8200ms (8+ seconds!)
system-prompt: ~3800ms
stream-setup: ~3700ms

Well, if every action in Openclaw tries to install a lot of packages, before it can work, I can imagine why everything is slow.

My openclaw summarized it for me:

In the last 12h (overnight - no one was using the system and the system had nothing to do) the system tried to install 42 dependencies 933 times. I don't know how npm handles a situation if another process tries to do the same action, but maybe here is the source of the problem?

If I try to ask my openclaw to analyze the problem it tells me, that the cache-key will never hit:

// In buildCacheKey():
const bundledRuntimeDepsMode = params.installBundledRuntimeDeps === false 
 ? "skip-runtime-deps" 
 : "install-runtime-deps"; // ← DEFAULT, if not explicitly false

And after that the code does

// In loadOpenClawPlugins():
if (shouldLoadModules && shouldInstallBundledRuntimeDeps && candidate.origin === "bundled") {
 // for EACH Plugin-Load → staging + install
 installDeps(installParams); // "staging bundled runtime deps..."
}

And he told me, that there is no "check if plugin dependencies are already installed" kinda code. I am using glm-5.1. So if it totally hallucinated, I am sorry for the confusion.

TL;DR

The issue is likely caused by the repeated installation of bundled runtime dependencies, which can be mitigated by setting installBundledRuntimeDeps to false or implementing a check to avoid redundant installations.

Guidance

Review the buildCacheKey function: Ensure that the cache key is correctly generated to avoid unnecessary reinstallations of dependencies.
Implement a check for existing dependencies: Before installing bundled runtime dependencies, verify if they are already installed to prevent redundant installations.
Set installBundledRuntimeDeps to false: If possible, set this parameter to false to skip the installation of bundled runtime dependencies.
Monitor the system's performance: Keep an eye on the system's performance and adjust the installation process as needed to prevent slowdowns.

Example

// In loadOpenClawPlugins():
if (shouldLoadModules && shouldInstallBundledRuntimeDeps && candidate.origin === "bundled") {
  // Check if dependencies are already installed before installing
  const dependenciesInstalled = checkDependenciesInstalled(installParams);
  if (!dependenciesInstalled) {
    installDeps(installParams); // "staging bundled runtime deps..."
  }
}

Notes

The provided logs indicate that the system is attempting to install dependencies repeatedly, which may be causing performance issues. However, without more information about the system's configuration and the specific requirements of the dependencies, it is difficult to provide a more detailed solution.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by setting installBundledRuntimeDeps to false or implementing a check to avoid redundant installations, as this is likely to mitigate the issue.

FAQ

Expected behavior

Messages should return in a reasonable time, without warnings in the log, without restarting gateway, without constantly reinstalling dependency deps.
