+## v3.0.43 — Telegram stops rebooting into a dead network: outages now pause-and-wait instead of restart-storming
+
+- **A host-wide network blip no longer triggers a reboot storm.** v3.0.42 fixed the *in-loop* poll wedge (a poisoned reused poller) so it heals in place — but it still kept the 10-minute `process.exit(1)` backstop, which fired even when the *entire host* had lost the network (a laptop sleep/wake, or pod egress starvation where Telegram poll+send, Kazee WS and Spaces WS all drop together). Exiting into a dead network just relaunched straight back into the same outage, so you'd see "Back online and ready! Running v3.0.42" every ~14 minutes, busting the prompt cache and spamming the chat. Now the self-exit is **reachability-gated**: before it ever restarts the process it runs a fresh, connection-fresh HEAD probe to `api.telegram.org`, and only exits if that probe genuinely **succeeds** — proving the API is reachable and it's a real in-process wedge worth a clean restart, not the host being offline.
+- **When the host is actually offline, the bot now pauses and waits instead of hammering.** On a confirmed-unreachable probe the adapter enters an *outage pause*: it **stops polling entirely** (so `node-telegram-bot-api` no longer respins `getUpdates` every ~300ms into a dead socket — the "not waiting between reconnects" hammering) and re-probes on a calm **30-second** cadence. The instant connectivity returns it resumes polling cleanly from a fresh poller (the update offset is preserved, so nothing is refetched or skipped) — no process restart, no "Back online" spam. The pause also suspends the health watchdog and hiccup handler so they don't fight the slow re-probe. Poll-health transitions are now timestamped for easier post-mortem.
+- **Agent-space / OpenClaw:** no new deps, env, or schema change; Docker image builds FROM the existing `:base`. Change is confined to `channels/telegram/adapter.js` (the `_heal` backstop plus the new `_enterOutagePause`/`_armHealthyCheck` paths); covered by new cases in `test-telegram-poll-recovery.js` (the gated exit defers on a live host, pauses instead of rebooting on a dead one, and resumes when the network returns). Existing pods pick it up on their next approved upgrade.
+
 ## v3.0.42 — Telegram stops rebooting itself: the long-poll wedge now heals in place
 
 - **The bot no longer restarts the whole process to recover from a stuck Telegram long-poll.** When the network stalls a poll mid-flight (a half-open socket after a laptop sleep/wake, or a NAT/IPv6 connection eviction), `node-telegram-bot-api` was left holding one reused internal poller whose abort flag got stuck "on". Restarting polling *in place* revived that same poisoned object, which fired a single `getUpdates` and then silently refused to schedule the next one — a dead loop that threw no error, so the heal looked like it "worked" while nothing was actually polling. The only thing that ever truly recovered was the 10-minute backstop calling `process.exit(1)` and letting the supervisor relaunch — i.e. the reboot storm you'd see. The heal now **discards the poisoned poller so a fresh one is built** (the update offset is preserved, so no messages are refetched or skipped), and it only declares polling "healthy again" once a `getUpdates` has genuinely **completed since the restart** — otherwise it re-arms another heal instead of blindly declaring victory. Net effect: transient poll wedges recover in seconds without a process restart; the 10-min self-exit becomes the rare true-last-resort it was meant to be.
