📢 OpenClaw Releases
🌟 openclaw 2026.6.1-beta.1 🚧 Pre-release
2026.6.1
Highlights
- Agents and CLI-backed runtimes recover more cleanly from interrupted tool calls, stale session bindings, compaction handoffs, and media delivery retries. (#88129, #88136, #88141, #88162, #88182)
- Channels and mobile delivery are steadier across Telegram, WhatsApp, iMessage, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, Google Meet, and iOS realtime Talk. (#88096, #88105, #88183, #88231)
- Provider and plugin requests now bound more timers, retries, OAuth/device-code lifetimes, media downloads, local service probes, and generated-content polling paths before they can hang a run.
- Skills, session metadata, gateway runtime state, plugin metadata, and store writes do less repeated work on hot paths while keeping config and dispatch behavior stable.
- Skills and plugin loading now handle stale disabled snapshots and loader failures more clearly, so channel turns avoid disabled SecretRefs and operators get better recovery guidance. (#79072, #79173) Thanks @ze...

🤖 The forgotten organ that could predict how long you live
A long-overlooked organ may hold surprising clues to healthy aging and cancer survival. Researchers at Mass General Brigham used AI to analyze CT scans from tens of thousands of adults and found that people with healthier thymuses—a small immune-system organ once thought to become largely irrelevant after childhood—lived longer and had substantially lower risks of heart disease, cancer, and death.
