 ### Fixes
 
+- Doctor/Sandbox: when sandbox mode is enabled but Docker is unavailable, surface a clear actionable warning (including failure impact and remediation) instead of a mild “skip checks” note. (#25438) Thanks @mcaxtr.
 - Config/Meta: accept numeric `meta.lastTouchedAt` timestamps and coerce them to ISO strings, preserving compatibility with agent edits that write `Date.now()` values. (#25491) Thanks @mcaxtr.
 - Auto-reply/Reset hooks: guarantee native `/new` and `/reset` flows emit command/reset hooks even on early-return command paths, with dedupe protection to avoid double hook emission. (#25459) Thanks @chilu18.
 - Hooks/Slug generator: resolve session slug model from the agent’s effective model (including defaults/fallback resolution) instead of raw agent-primary config only. (#25485) Thanks @SudeepMalipeddi.
