[Release] openclaw/openclaw v2026.7.2-beta.3: openclaw 2026.7.2-beta.3

OpenClaw v2026.7.2-beta.3 introduces remote coding sessions on cloud workers, native automation capabilities for mobile and headless Linux, safer channel operations with improved Telegram and Signal handling, guided Control UI setup for model providers and channels, and enhanced gateway/session recovery. The release also includes new Linux packaging options (deb and AppImage), external gateway supervision mode, ClickClack integration improvements, and numerous UI/UX refinements across Control UI, including better chat layouts, keyboard shortcuts, and session management.

Key Points

• •Remote coding sessions now run on cloud workers with Control UI, Codex, Claude catalog, OpenCode, and Pi sessions resumable in terminals on their owning hosts
• •Native automation parity brought to mobile with foreground Voice Wake on Android; camera, location, and notification capabilities exposed from headless Linux nodes
• •Safer channel operations: prevent Telegram durable-ingress loss after restarts, keep Signal controls responsive during active turns, and fix channel allowlists from granting owner access
• •Guided Control UI setup enables configuring model providers from Settings, onboarding channels through setup pages, and selecting images/models during session creation
• •Gateway and session recovery improvements prevent restart admission wedging, recover reply sessions after finalization stalls, and maintain one-shot cron jobs through lifecycle claim races
• •New Linux packaging with deb and AppImage bundles published from stable main-based releases; Windows installs continue immediately after winget adds Node.js
• •External gateway supervision mode (`OPENCLAW_SUPERVISOR_MODE=external`) for lifecycle owners like OCM with verified restart/deferral behavior without exposing native service authority
• •ClickClack integration: guided setup via `openclaw onboard`, native command publishing to composer autocomplete, and per-account opt-out with compatibility handling
• •Control UI improvements: centered chat layout, keyboard shortcuts (⇧⌘B for workspace, ⇧⌘, for Settings), per-message token/context details on hover, and improved composer footer layout
• •Skill Workshop enhancements: agent-initiated actions without approval prompts by default, history review with progressive session scanning, and conservative skill idea proposals
