📢 OpenClaw Releases

🌟 openclaw 2026.3.24

Breaking

Changes

Gateway/OpenAI compatibility: add `/v1/models` and `/v1/embeddings`, and forward explicit model overrides through `/v1/chat/completions` and `/v1/responses` for broader client and RAG compatibility. Thanks @vincentkoc.
Agents/tools: make `/tools` show the tools the current agent can actually use right now, add a compact default view with an optional detailed mode, and add a live "Available Right Now" section in the Control UI so it is easier to see what will work before you ask.
Microsoft Teams: migrate to the official Teams SDK and add AI-agent UX best practices including streaming 1:1 replies, welcome cards with prompt starters, feedback/reflection, informative status updates, typing indicators, and native AI labeling. (#51808)
Microsoft Teams: add message edit and delete support for sent messages, including in-thread fallbacks when no explicit target is provided. (#49925)
Skills/install metadata: add one-click install recipes to bundled...

🌟 openclaw 2026.3.24-beta.2 🚧 Pre-release

Fixes

Outbound media/local files: align outbound media access with the configured fs policy so host-local files and inbound-media paths keep sending when `workspaceOnly` is off, while strict workspace-only agents remain sandboxed.
Runtime/install: lower the supported Node 22 floor to `22.14+` while continuing to recommend Node 24, so npm installs and self-updates do not strand Node 22.14 users on older releases.
CLI/update: preflight the target npm package `engines.node` before `openclaw update` runs a global package install, so outdated Node runtimes fail with a clear upgrade message instead of attempting an unsupported latest release.
Tests/security audit: isolate audit-test home and personal skill resolution so local `~/.agents/skills` installs no longer make maintainer prep runs fail nondeterministically. (#54473) thanks @huntharo
