Sandbox agent cannot read Slack file uploads from media/inbound via read tool
증상
When files are uploaded via Slack, they are correctly staged to media/inbound/ in the workspace. The sandbox container can see and read the files via shell (cat, head), but the agent’s read file tool consistently fails to access them. The agent tries multiple path variations and eventually gives up.
원인
Container permission, networking, or environment variable misconfiguration inside the sandbox.
해결법
Manually copying the file to the project directory works:
cp ~/.openclaw/workspace-test/media/inbound/<file>.csv ~/.openclaw/workspace-test/test-project/import-data.csv
Also, adding a hint to BOOTSTRAP.md helps the agent attempt the correct path, but the read tool still fails.
