Node service crash-looping after gateway token reset on v2026.2.19-2 (macOS arm64)
After resolving a device token mismatch via openclaw doctor --fix + openclaw devices rotate, the gateway is healthy (reachable, auth OK) but the node service crash-loops in node.err.log with alternating ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:18789 and pairing required. The gateway IS listening (curl confirms it). Node plist port is correct (18789). Restarting/kickstarting the node doesn't help. openclaw status shows node service running but it never actually connects.
