+Shield captures what your agent *does* — tool invocations and their results — not what it says.

+The Activity section shows two levels:
+
+- **Session-level** (`TOOL_CALL`, `TOOL_RESULT`) — every tool invocation and result, shown in the "This session" summary
+- **Sync-level** (`exec`, `file`, `web`, etc.) — the specific event type after parsing, shown in "Last sync"
+
+`exec: 2` in Last sync means 2 of those synced events were shell commands. Those same 2 are also counted within the `TOOL_CALL` total in the session view. They are not separate.

 ### Quarantine
 
-Quarantine counts events that failed local schema validation and were **held back** rather than forwarded to the platform. They are not lost — they're written to `~/.openclaw/shield/data/quarantine.jsonl` for inspection. A non-zero quarantine count usually means a plugin version mismatch between the collector and the platform schema; upgrading Shield typically resolves it.

-Redaction runs locally before anything leaves your machine. The counts shown are **occurrences** — how many times that category of sensitive data was detected and replaced with a reversible token (e.g. `host:a3f9b1c2`, `user:7b2c4a1f`). The original values are stored in an encrypted local vault (`~/.openclaw/shield/data/redaction-vault.json`) so they can be recovered for investigation — they are never transmitted to the platform.

+## What is sent to the platform
+
+Shield uses two separate channels with different privacy properties:
+
+### Telemetry (operational identity)
+
+Sent every ~5 minutes over HTTPS. This tells the platform *where* the instance is running, not *what* it does. It does **not** pass through the redaction pipeline.
+
+```json
+{
+  "machine": {
+    "hostname": "openclaw-agent",
+    "os": "linux",
+    "arch": "x64",
+    "node_version": "v22.x.x",
+    "public_ip": "1.2.3.4"
+  },
+  "software": {
+    "plugin_version": "0.3.x",
+    "openclaw_version": "2026.x.x",
+    "agent_label": "main",
+    "instance_name": "openclaw-agent"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Telemetry fields like `hostname`, `public_ip`, and `instance_name` are operational identity signals used for geo-correlation in detection rules and instance health monitoring. They travel over HTTPS and are never exposed publicly.
+
+### Events (behavioural data)
+
+Sent every poll cycle over HTTPS. This is the data stream subject to the full redaction pipeline. Per-event fields include: tool name, redacted command/path/output, timestamp, session ID, and action type. Sensitive values are replaced with `category:hash` tokens before transmission.
+
+> **The distinction:** telemetry = *who/where the instance is* (slim, operational). Events = *what the agent did* (redacted, privacy-protected).
+
+---
+
 ## How your data is protected
 
-**Redaction** runs locally before any data leaves your machine. The redactor detects hostnames, usernames, file paths, API keys, and secrets — replacing them with deterministic `category:hash` tokens. The token→original mapping is stored in an AES-256-GCM encrypted vault (`~/.openclaw/shield/data/redaction-vault.json`, mode 0600). Original values are never transmitted.

+## FAQ
+
+**How long until I see my first event on the platform?**
+Within 1–2 minutes of activation. Shield polls every ~30 seconds; the platform processes events within seconds of receipt.
+
+**How do I verify it's working end-to-end?**
+Run `openclaw shield status` and check that `Events sent` is increasing and `Last capture` is recent. Then visit [uss.upx.com](https://uss.upx.com) and check your instance — you should see events flowing within 2 minutes.
+
+**What if I don't see any events after 5 minutes?**
+Check `openclaw shield status` for elevated `Failures` or a stale `Last sync`. If failures are high, restart the gateway. If `Last capture` is old, your agent hasn't used any tools — run a command to generate activity.
+
+**Can I run Shield alongside other plugins?**
+Yes. Shield runs as a passive observer — it hooks into the event stream and does not interfere with other plugins or agent behavior.
+
+**Is my Installation Key burned if activation fails?**
+No. The key is consumed only on the first *successful* activation. If the attempt fails (network issue, config error), you can fix the issue and retry with the same key.
+
+**Where is the changelog?**
+the CHANGELOG, available on the Shield portal at uss.upx.com
+
+---
+
+## Subscription expiry
+
+When a subscription lapses or the monthly event quota is exhausted, Shield detects this on the next ingest call and will:
+
+1. Log a clear warning
+2. Stop transmitting events — **events are dropped, not queued**
+3. Show elevated consecutive failures in `openclaw shield status`
+
+Events generated during an expiry or quota period are permanently lost. Renew your subscription at [uss.upx.com](https://uss.upx.com) and restart the gateway to resume.
+
+---
+
 ## Uninstalling
 
 ```bash
 openclaw plugins uninstall shield
 ```
 
-Stops the monitoring bridge and removes the plugin.
+This removes the plugin code. To fully remove all local Shield data:
+
+```bash
+rm -rf ~/.openclaw/shield/
+```
+
+This deletes credentials, cursors, IP cache, and the redaction vault. 
+
+> **Note:** The redaction vault (`data/redaction-vault.json`) contains the mapping from redaction tokens back to original values. Deleting it means you can no longer reverse-lookup redacted values from past events. Retain this file for as long as your data retention policy requires.
