 - Agents/failover: treat Gemini `MALFORMED_RESPONSE` stop reasons as retryable timeouts so preview-model enum drift falls back cleanly instead of crashing the run, without also reclassifying malformed function-call errors. (#42292) Thanks @jnMetaCode.
 - Discord/Telegram outbound runtime config: thread runtime-resolved config through Discord and Telegram send paths so SecretRef-based credentials stay resolved during message delivery. (#42352) Thanks @joshavant.
 - Secrets/SecretRef: reject exec SecretRef traversal ids across schema, runtime, and gateway. (#42370) Thanks @joshavant.
+- Telegram/docs: clarify that `channels.telegram.groups` allowlists chats while `groupAllowFrom` allowlists users inside those chats, and point invalid negative chat IDs at the right config key. (#42451) Thanks @altaywtf.
