Just dropped: OpenClaw v2026.3.8
If you’re running OpenClaw in production (or even side projects), this is a high-value upgrade.
Why this release matters:
✅ New backup commands:
• openclaw backup create
• openclaw backup verify
Huge for safer updates + rollback confidence.
✅ Better day-to-day stability:
• Telegram DM dedupe + streaming polish
• Cron delivery/replay fixes
• Gateway restart/startup behavior improvements
• Plugin onboarding and bundled plugin preference fixes
✅ Better operator experience:
• Talk mode now has configurable silence timeout (talk.silenceTimeoutMs)
• Better macOS onboarding/token handling + more robust UI behaviors
✅ Security improvements:
• Browser redirect/SSRF hardening
• Safer script execution validation
• Skill download path hardening
If you’re behind a few versions, this one is worth upgrading for reliability + safety alone.
