Plugin installs and updates got a bunch of unglamorous hardening: managed npm mutations now use the same stable lifecycle shell as package updates, and rollback/repair paths behave more predictably. The best plugin bug is the one you never meet. docs.openclaw.ai/tools/plugin

`openclaw channels list` is channel-only now, with `--all` for bundled/catalog channels and clear installed/configured/enabled state. Cron JSON also gets computed status, so scripts stop guessing. docs.openclaw.ai/cli/channels

OpenClaw 2026.5.7 🦞 🔐 Native command + Active Memory auth tightened 📣 Telegram access groups fixed 🧰 Channels list + cron JSON cleaned up 🔌 Plugin install/update repairs hardened Boring fixes, useful boring. github.com/openclaw/openc…

@openclaw @steipete is this supposed to happen?

Reminder: OpenClaw has plugins now. Install the integrations you want, keep noisy ones disabled, and enable/disable them from the CLI as your setup changes. Less bundled mystery, more deliberate claws. docs.openclaw.ai/plugins/plugin…

Gateway diagnostics got more useful: deep status now shows recent supervisor restart handoffs, token-shadowing warnings are quieter and sharper, and quick restarts stop leaving background timers behind. docs.openclaw.ai/cli/gateway

Plugin update paths got sturdier: official npm and ClawHub plugins stay synced across host updates, SDK peer links are reasserted after installs, and diagnostics now explain source-only package failures clearly. docs.openclaw.ai/tools/plugin

OpenClaw 2026.5.5 🦞 💬 Feishu, LINE, Telegram, Discord fixes 🖥️ Control UI/TUI stay responsive 🔌 Plugins update without losing SDK links 🛠️ Gateway status/restarts clearer Tiny bugfix release. Extremely tiny. github.com/openclaw/openc…

@Cocoanetics That's what we been working on for a while - plugins moved out of the npm. More work to be done.

Is there a way to avoid having all those downloads for other platforms for @openclaw - I don't need hundreds of megabytes for linux, wind32, ...

Firefighters were deployed the whole night for this one 🔥🔥

Model auth is easier to inspect now: `openclaw models auth list` shows saved per-agent profiles without dumping secrets or forcing live provider calls. docs.openclaw.ai/cli/models

Meet and phone calls got snappier too: Twilio dial-ins can speak through the realtime Gemini voice bridge, with paced audio, bounded queues, and barge-in clearing. docs.openclaw.ai/plugins/google…

OpenClaw 2026.5.4 🦞 🧩 Cleaner plugin installs + updates ⚡ Faster Gateway startup paths 🛠️ Better doctor/repair hints 🪟 Windows + Discord reliability fixes The release where boring got fast. github.com/openclaw/openc…
