macOS TCC permissions break when node binary path changes during update
증상
When OpenClaw auto-updates via update-openclaw (or manual npm install -g openclaw@latest), if the underlying Node.js binary path changes (e.g. from node@24 to node@25, or a Homebrew upgrade), all macOS TCC (Transparency, Consent, and Control) permissions are silently lost. This breaks:
원인
OpenClaw gateway, skill, or agent configuration issue — root cause confirmed in the openclaw/openclaw issue tracker.
해결법
Manually copy TCC permissions from old node binary to new one:
sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/com.apple.TCC/TCC.db "
INSERT OR REPLACE INTO access (service, client, client_type, auth_value, auth_reason, auth_version, indirect_object_identifier, indirect_object_identifier_type, flags)
SELECT service, '/opt/homebrew/Cellar/node/25.5.0/bin/node', client_type, auth_value, auth_reason, auth_version, indirect_object_identifier, indirect_object_identifier_type, flags
FROM access
WHERE client='/opt/homebrew/Cellar/node@24/24.13.0/bin/node' AND auth_value=2;"
