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.
