Changelog: April 24, 2026

A maintenance-focused update with stability and flexibility improvements.

New Features

Custom Environment Variables

You can now set your own environment variables that persist across restarts. Add them to ~/.openclaw-env on your cloud computer and they’ll be loaded automatically every time your machine boots.

Improvements

Connection Stability

We resolved an issue that could cause WebSocket disconnects under certain configurations. Sessions should now stay connected more reliably, especially during high-traffic periods.

Logging Optimization

Improved how logs are collected behind the scenes — your cloud computer now runs slightly leaner with less disk I/O from log processing.
