OpenClaw has released OpenClaw 2.0, which the team described as the largest update in the project’s history. The release comes nearly seven weeks after the previous major version shipped in mid-July, a clear slowdown from the project’s earlier pace of roughly one update every two days. According to the team, 933 developers contributed to the release, with more than 16,000 pull requests merged, accounting for about half of all merged PRs in the project’s history. The main focus of the update is to reduce setup friction: installation can now automatically detect existing ChatGPT and Claude subscriptions, API keys, and local models on a user’s computer, cutting down manual configuration. The browser version was also rebuilt to support direct chat, task continuation, session management, and collaborative handoff or participation on the same task. The update also touches messaging, memory, Skills, models, automation, plugins, security, and native apps. Over the past 230 days, OpenClaw has shipped 106 versions. The team said its earlier release pace had become too fast for the underlying architecture and release process to keep up with, and added that update frequency will continue to decline from here.
OpenClaw has released a new version, OpenClaw 2.0, which the team described as the biggest update in the project’s history.
According to BlockBeats, the previous major version was released in mid-July. Nearly seven weeks passed without another formal major release. That marks a noticeable change in pace, given that OpenClaw had previously updated about once every two days on average.
The team said 933 developers contributed to OpenClaw 2.0, with more than 16,000 pull requests merged. That figure accounts for about half of all merged PRs in the project’s history.
The main goal of the release is to lower the barrier to use. During installation, the software can automatically identify existing ChatGPT and Claude subscriptions, API keys, and local models already present on a user’s computer, reducing manual setup.
The browser experience was also rebuilt. Users can now chat directly, continue tasks, and manage sessions in the browser, while multiple people can join or take over the same task.
The update also covers messaging, memory, Skills, models, automation, plugins, security, and native apps.
Over the past 230 days, OpenClaw has released 106 versions. The team acknowledged that its earlier shipping cadence had been too fast, and that the underlying architecture and release process were no longer keeping up. It said the project will continue to reduce update frequency going forward.
