…sight-tools/ The agent-sdk package was split out to be shared across harnesses, but openclaw is its only user. Move its code into the plugin (src/knowledge-tools.ts) and drop the package, its release script and workflow, its CI job and the lint/lockfile special cases. Openclaw's lockfile resolved the published 0.1.0 from npm, so the next release also picks up the 0.1.1 fixes that never shipped.
… knowledge tools - knowledge-tools.ts: factory comment now says index.ts wraps the tools; drop unused KnowledgeToolName export - knowledge-pages docs (+ generated docs skill): agent_knowledge_* tools come from the OpenClaw plugin, not the agent SDK
… only The opt-in knowledge tools (enableKnowledgeTools) never left alpha: they built their own client, ignored the plugin's recall settings (#5057) and were only enabled by the self-driving-agents CLI. Remove them, the bank resolver and Code Mode details helper they used, the registerTool typing and the manifest tool contracts. enableKnowledgeTools stays in the schema as deprecated and ignored, like daemonIdleTimeout: the root schema has additionalProperties: false, so dropping it would reject existing configs that set it.

Deletes the
@vectorize-io/hindsight-agent-sdkpackage and the openclawagent_knowledge_*tools it powered. Openclaw keeps auto-recall and auto-retain only.Why: the SDK was split out to be shared across harnesses, but openclaw was its only user. The knowledge tools behind it never left alpha: opt-in via
enableKnowledgeTools, only turned on by the self-driving-agents CLI, built their own API client, and ignored the plugin's recall settings (#5057).Removed
hindsight-tools/(the SDK),scripts/release-tool.sh+ its test,release-tool.yml, thetest-hindsight-agent-sdkCI job, the SDK build steps in the openclaw CI jobs and integration release, the lint.sh and lockfile-check special cases, the root workspace entryresolveBankIdForKnowledgeTools,knowledgeToolDetails,registerTool/PluginToolContexttyping, manifestcontracts.tools, README and docs sectionsKept:
enableKnowledgeToolsstays in the manifest schema as deprecated and ignored (same asdaemonIdleTimeout). The root schema hasadditionalProperties: false, so dropping the key would make OpenClaw reject existing configs that set it.Closes #5057 (the tools it reports on are gone).
Openclaw: tsc clean, 379 tests pass; lint.sh and check-integration-lockfiles.sh pass.
