OpenClaw has released a v2026.3.23 maintenance update, addressing around 25 issues

According to 1M AI News monitoring, OpenClaw has released version v2026.3.23, which is a pure maintenance update containing about 25 fixes with no new features. One of the fixes addressed an issue overlooked by the founder Peter Steinberger in the previous day's release v2026.3.22: the frontend assets and some built-in plugins for the Web Console (Control UI) were missing from the npm release package. This update filled in the missing resources, added a new check step in the release process to fail the release directly if the packaged artifacts are missing, preventing similar issues from happening again.

Other key fixes include: Chrome MCP browser connection timeout and repeated authorization issues on macOS, ClawHub authentication failure in macOS default path and XDG path, message sending anomalies in multiple plugins (Discord, Telegram, Lark, Matrix), a 422 error caused by Mistral model token limit configuration, and a gateway deadlock crash loop under launchd/systemd.
