Bug Description

When using the Control UI web interface, clicking on a session in the dropdown menu does not respond or navigate to that session. The dropdown appears to register the click visually, but the UI does not switch to the selected session.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open the Control UI (e.g., http://127.0.0.1:18789/)
  2. Click the session dropdown selector (top of the chat interface)
  3. Select any session from the list
  4. Observe that the UI does not navigate to or switch to the selected session

Expected Behavior

Selecting a session from the dropdown should immediately switch the chat view to that session, loading its context and message history.

Actual Behavior

  • The dropdown closes after clicking
  • No navigation occurs
  • The current session remains unchanged
  • No error message is displayed in the UI

Regression Note

This appears to be a regression. Session switching via the dropdown previously worked correctly.

Environment

  • OpenClaw CLI version: 2026.5.28
  • Gateway: local loopback
  • Browser: Chrome (latest)
  • OS: Windows 11 + WSL2(openclaw gateway running in wsl2)
