OpenClaw 2026.3.13 is a recovery release.
Important release-version note
OpenClaw published this release as v2026.3.13-1 on GitHub because immutable release constraints prevented reusing the original v2026.3.13 tag.
- GitHub release tag:
v2026.3.13-1 - npm package version:
2026.3.13
So the -1 suffix is a release-tag recovery detail, not a separate npm version line.
What was included
This release bundles a broad set of follow-up fixes across reliability, UI, channels, and runtime behavior, including:
- Telegram media/download and transport-policy fixes
- Discord gateway metadata fetch failure handling
- session reset and transcript edge-case fixes
- Docker timezone support via
OPENCLAW_TZ - Android/iOS onboarding and UI refinements
- browser batch action/session lifecycle hardening
- updater/service reinstall and restart path fixes
- chat rendering/history reload stability fixes
- security fix to prevent gateway token leak in Docker build context
- config/startup crash and schema validation fixes
Why this matters for OpenClaw VPS
For hosted operators, this is mainly a stability consolidation release:
- smoother upgrade/restart paths,
- fewer delivery/UI regressions,
- better cross-platform behavior under real usage.
