OpenClaw 2026.9.3 rehearses updates and raises Node minimums
OpenClaw 2026.9.3 rehearses core and plugin changes in isolated candidate state, recovers abandoned update records, preserves warm caches and persistent workshop skills, and introduces several breaking runtime and SDK migrations.
Why it matters: The release strengthens upgrade recovery for a stateful agent runtime, but its new Node floor and SDK changes can block existing gateways or plugins if operators update without a compatibility checkpoint.
