OpenClaw beta 2026.8.1: secret egress binding, GPT-5.6 Ultra support, SQLite snapshots, macOS app profiles, plugin provenance warnings

A feature-dense beta release. Secrets are now bound to explicit HTTPS destinations so unbound substitution fails closed. Adds GPT-5.6 Ultra (Sol/Terra/Luna) with atomic runtime switching across OpenClaw and Codex engines. Introduces SQLite backup snapshots with verify/restore, macOS app profiles for instance isolation, plugin install provenance warnings requiring --force for untrusted sources, CDP relay for external Puppeteer clients, Fish Audio speech synthesis, and multiple Control UI improvements including update recovery, sender identity, and who's-online roster.

OpenClaw 2026.6.33: security hardening across gateway auth, MCP authority, and channel delivery

A 169-PR release dominated by security and reliability repair. Gateway HTTP now rejects disallowed browser origins before unauthenticated handling, external MCP loopback clients get short-lived session-bound grants instead of inheriting mutable child-process authority, Codex app-server commands require a real human or plugin approval, and secrets are redacted from MCP status output and Telegram-adjacent logs. Operators running exposed gateways should treat this as an upgrade release.

OpenClaw 2026.7.2-beta.7: durable state and delivery, session rewind/fork, Claude Opus 5 and Kimi K3

Large beta covering crash recovery for persisted state, durable message delivery across nine chat platforms, and conversation rewind/fork across web and native apps. Adds Claude Opus 5, Kimi K3, and GPT Live realtime support — but realtime Talk now requires a supported OpenAI Platform API key, as the Codex OAuth fallback is rejected.

OpenClaw 2026.7.2-beta.6: Claude Opus 5, MCP Apps host, session forking, crash-durable state

Large beta covering persistence hardening (quarantine store, crash-recoverable SQLite snapshots, rejection of data-losing schema upgrades), durable message delivery across ten chat channels, conversation rewind/fork with branch switching, and a ticketed MCP Apps host with dashboards. Adds Claude Opus 5, Kimi K3, and GPT Live realtime — realtime Talk now requires a supported OpenAI Platform API key, as the Codex OAuth fallback is rejected. Also adds meeting guests for Teams/Zoom/Meet, a Wear OS companion, and in-process llama.cpp inference.

OpenClaw 2026.7.2-beta.5: Claude Opus 5 and Kimi K3 support, MCP Apps host, session rewind/fork

Large beta covering new model support (Claude Opus 5, Kimi K3, GPT Live via Codex OAuth), a ticketed MCP Apps host with dashboards, conversation rewind/fork with branch switching, durable message delivery across nine chat channels, in-process llama.cpp local inference, and a Wear OS companion. Affects anyone running OpenClaw as a gateway — state-durability and channel-delivery work changes recovery behaviour after crashes and restarts.

OpenClaw 2026.7.2-beta.3: remote coding sessions, GPT-5.6 defaults, channel allowlist fix

Prerelease carrying the 2026.7.2 cycle changelog: Control UI sessions on cloud workers, Codex/Claude sessions opened in terminals on their owning host, and a fix so channel allowlists no longer grant owner access. Fresh setups now default to GPT-5.6 (Sol), and Slack lifecycle reaction updates require opting in via messages.statusReactions.enabled: true.
