On every Gateway startup, the following log message is printed at INFO level:

\
[agents/model-providers] [xai-auth] bootstrap config fallback: no config-backed key found \\

This message appears even when the user has no xAI provider configured at all. Since xAI is not a required provider, printing an INFO-level log for a non-existent configuration creates unnecessary noise in the startup logs.

Root Cause

On every Gateway startup, the following log message is printed at INFO level:

\
[agents/model-providers] [xai-auth] bootstrap config fallback: no config-backed key found \\

This message appears even when the user has no xAI provider configured at all. Since xAI is not a required provider, printing an INFO-level log for a non-existent configuration creates unnecessary noise in the startup logs.

PR fix notes

PR #56894: fix: lower xai bootstrap fallback log noise

Description (problem / solution / changelog)

Summary

  • downgrade the [xai-auth] bootstrap fallback message from INFO to DEBUG when no config-backed key exists

Why

Users who do not configure xAI should not see an INFO-level startup message for an optional provider. This keeps gateway startup logs quieter without removing the trace entirely for debug sessions.

Closes #56884

Changed files

  • src/agents/models-config.providers.secrets.ts (modified, +1/-1)

Description

On every Gateway startup, the following log message is printed at INFO level:

\
[agents/model-providers] [xai-auth] bootstrap config fallback: no config-backed key found \\

This message appears even when the user has no xAI provider configured at all. Since xAI is not a required provider, printing an INFO-level log for a non-existent configuration creates unnecessary noise in the startup logs.

Suggestion

  • Downgrade this log level from INFO to DEBUG, or suppress it entirely when no xAI-related configuration is present.
  • Alternatively, consider only logging this when the user has explicitly attempted to configure an xAI provider (i.e., when there is a partial/invalid xAI config).

Environment

  • OpenClaw (latest)
  • OS: Windows 11

Fix Plan

To address the issue, we will downgrade the log level from INFO to DEBUG when no xAI-related configuration is present.

Steps to Fix

  • Identify the logging statement in the codebase responsible for the message.
  • Modify the logging level to DEBUG.
  • Add a conditional check to only log the message when an xAI provider is configured.

Example Code

import logging

# Assuming 'xai_config' is a variable holding the xAI configuration
if xai_config:
    # Log at INFO level if xAI provider is configured
    logging.info("[agents/model-providers] [xai-auth] bootstrap config fallback: no config-backed key found")
else:
    # Log at DEBUG level if no xAI provider is configured
    logging.debug("[agents/model-providers] [xai-auth] bootstrap config fallback: no config-backed key found")

Alternatively, you can suppress the log message entirely when no xAI-related configuration is present:

if xai_config:
    logging.info("[agents/model-providers] [xai-auth] bootstrap config fallback: no config-backed key found")

Verification

To verify the fix, restart the Gateway and check the startup logs. The log message should no longer appear at the INFO level when no xAI provider is configured.

Extra Tips

  • Make sure to update the logging configuration accordingly to reflect the changed log level.
  • Consider adding additional logging statements to provide more context when an xAI provider is configured.
