OpenClaw v2026.7.1 introduces major platform enhancements including new AI models (Claude Sonnet 5, Mythos 5, Meta Muse Spark 1.1), a redesigned Control UI with sessions-first navigation, conversational onboarding via Crestodian agent-loop, offline/spoken mobile chat capabilities, and improved session organization with auto-generated titles. The release also strengthens Telegram/Codex continuity, adds startup/upgrade recovery mechanisms, and expands provider support with ClawRouter for dynamic model discovery and budget management.

OpenClaw v2026.7.1-beta.6 introduces major UI/UX improvements with a redesigned Control UI featuring session-primary navigation and native macOS chat, adds support for new AI models (GPT-5.6, Claude Sonnet 5, Meta Muse Spark 1.1) and providers (Featherless, ClawRouter), implements conversational onboarding through an agent-loop setup, and enhances mobile experiences with offline caching, voice capabilities, and improved session management across iOS, Android, and Apple Watch.

OpenClaw v2026.7.1-beta.5 introduces major features including conversational AI-guided onboarding through Crestodian, a new ClawRouter provider for dynamic model discovery and quota management, redesigned Control UI with session-first navigation, offline/spoken capabilities for mobile platforms, and support for GPT-5.6 models. The release emphasizes improved user experience across web, iOS, Android, macOS, and Apple Watch with features like auto-generated session titles, external harness attachment via Claude Code, and Telegram workflow enhancements.

Performance improvements include background agent auto-upgrades and better model picker accuracy.

Claude Code v2.1.204 is a bug fix release that addresses an issue where hook events were not streaming properly during SessionStart hooks in headless sessions. This problem could cause remote workers to be incorrectly terminated (idle-reaped) while still processing hooks. The fix ensures proper event streaming and worker lifecycle management in headless environments.

Claude Code v2.1.203 is a maintenance release focused on stability, performance, and user experience improvements. Key fixes address background session reliability, memory/CPU regressions, environment variable handling, and UI responsiveness.
