Eckart heat flux holds for all timelike scalar configurations in F(Φ,X)R + G theories if and only if F_X ≡ 0, reducing the theory to a Jordan-like subclass of Horndeski.
Jordan-frame multi-scalar-tensor gravity admits an Eckart-like first-order thermodynamic description whose heat flux and residual gradient sector are not generically reducible to a single KT-type quantity.
Scalar and tensor perturbations in Jordan-frame scalar-tensor gravity admit an exact linear-order Eckart effective-fluid description, with gravitational-wave damping governed by the scalar sector's transverse-traceless anisotropic stress.
A causal Israel–Stewart extension of scalar-tensor thermodynamics is constructed via a timelike heat-flux ansatz, enabling the first explicit split of K and T in Bianchi I and FLRW universes.
