[Release] openclaw/openclaw v2026.6.11: openclaw 2026.6.11

OpenClaw v2026.6.11 is a major release featuring enhanced channel control across Slack, Mattermost, and WhatsApp with relay modes and per-DM model overrides. The update introduces richer operator workflows through file-driven message handling and RAFT CLI wake bridges, safer plugin distribution with externalized official plugins, stronger mobile operations via Android settings improvements, and more reliable agent turns through Codex partial deltas and prompt-cache stability. The release includes 308 merged PRs addressing channel delivery reliability, gateway safety, provider model coverage, and configuration guardrails across multiple messaging platforms.

Key Points

• •Slack relay mode and native Mattermost `/oc_queue` slash command enable easier channel automation and per-DM model overrides for fine-tuned control

• •Official plugins are now externalized cleanly with bundled plugin icon metadata available to installed clients for safer distribution
• •Android settings detail panels improve mobile configuration visibility and control on mobile devices
• •Codex partial deltas, harness activation, and long-context prompt-cache stability reduce lost progress and inconsistent agent runs
• •Channel identity hook context and per-agent usage-cost reporting enable more precise routing and accounting for integrations
• •Telegram progress rendering, webhook lifecycle, reaction directives, and WhatsApp durable reply targets are now more reliable
• •WhatsApp native quotes, Baileys group reliability, and approval reactions preserve conversation context across JID drift
• •Gateway and session safety improvements handle stuck release claims, draining-state reporting, and remote probe timeouts without silent routing loss
