OpenClaw 2026.6.34: extended-stable security release, Plugin SDK removals announced

Maintenance release on the extended-stable line — targeted security and reliability repairs, no new features. Notable for plugin authors: before_agent_start, root openclaw/plugin-sdk imports, providerAuthEnvVars, and channelEnvVars are scheduled for removal. OpenCode Go users get the corrected hy3 model identifier in place of the failing hy3-preview alias.

Highlights

  • Sandboxed browser routes, trusted DNS targets, custom browser origins, and loopback provider endpoints reject unsafe access paths
  • Retained session writes, provider fallbacks, stream progress handling, and stdio failures recover without silently ending active work
  • Pending channel work resumes after recovery, acknowledgements are idempotent, sustained Discord gateway bursts stay bounded
  • Command and status surfaces keep owner-only actions protected; credentials kept out of account URLs and summaries
  • SQLite checkpoints, workspace reads, gateway process signalling, plugin HTTP responses, and dependency handling tolerate transient host conditions

Fixes

  • OpenCode Go: use documented hy3 model identifier instead of the failing hy3-preview alias
  • Codex native subagents: retain parent app-server subscription; recognize multi-agent V2 child activity until a yielded child completion reaches its requester
  • Dependency resolutions updated for patched brace-expansion, PostCSS, fast-uri, ip-address, Undici (#113428, #118804)

Upcoming deprecations

  • before_agent_start, root openclaw/plugin-sdk imports, providerAuthEnvVars, and channelEnvVars scheduled for removal after July 24 — migrate to modern hook stages, focused SDK subpath imports, and manifest setup descriptors

Release notes
