Clients like OpenClaw send message content as an array of content blocks
(e.g. [{type: "text", text: "hello"}]) rather than a plain string.
The previous code pushed the array directly into parts[], which caused
JavaScript to coerce it to "[object Object]" when joining.
- Add OpenAIContentBlock type and update OpenAIChatMessage.content to
accept string | OpenAIContentBlock[]
- Add extractTextContent() to normalize both formats before use
- Apply extractTextContent() across all roles in messagesToPrompt

Problem
When clients like OpenClaw send chat requests, they use the OpenAI content block array format for message content:
{"role": "user", "content": [{"type": "text", "text": "hello there"}]}The
messagesToPromptfunction assumedcontentwas always astring. Pushing an array intopartsand then calling.join("\n")caused JavaScript to coerce it viaArray.prototype.toString(), producing[object Object]as the prompt sent to Claude.Fix
