[Release] openclaw/openclaw v2026.6.5-beta.6: openclaw 2026.6.5-beta.6

OpenClaw v2026.6.5-beta.6 introduces critical fixes for QQBot reasoning stripping, MCP tool result coercion to prevent API errors, improved Anthropic extended-thinking recovery, Parallel web-search provider bundling, and enhanced durability for auth/plugin state via SQLite. The release strengthens security around MCP leases, prompt-cache tool names, and HTTP tools while improving macOS node stability and upgrade safety across multiple platforms.

Key Points

• •QQBot now strips model reasoning/thinking scaffolding before delivery to prevent raw `<thinking>` content from leaking into channel replies
• •MCP tool results are coerced at materialize boundary to handle `resource_link`, `resource`, `audio`, and malformed image blocks, preventing Anthropic 400s and poisoned session history
• •Anthropic extended-thinking sessions recover after prompt-cache expiry or Gateway restart by waiting for `message_start` events before stream processing
• •Parallel is now a bundled `web_search` provider with `PARALLEL_API_KEY` discovery, guarded endpoint handling, and cache-safe session IDs
• •Auth profiles and official npm plugin install records now persist in SQLite for improved durability and trusted pin preservation
• •Agent, tool, and provider loops enforce stricter validation on MCP lease timestamps, prompt-cache tool names, local tool catalogs, and owner-only HTTP tools
• •macOS node mode no longer silently self-reconnects away from healthy direct Gateway sessions, reducing unexpected companion app churn
• •Release numbering switched to `YYYY.M.PATCH` monthly patch format with June 2026 floor at `2026.6.5`
• •Matrix channels now support voice-message preflight and thread-aware read/reply behavior with QA scenario coverage
• •Google Vertex ADC users regain static catalog rows and runtime model resolution with improved single-provider cooldown recovery
