OpenClaw 3.23 just changed the game. 🚨 Cheaper models. Better stability. 40+ bugs fixed. Auto model pricing with OpenRouter. DeepSeek now runs as a modular plugin instead of being locked inside the core. This update makes OpenClaw feel like a completely different tool.

Local model update! 🚨 The MiniMax (official) 2.7 model has been powering my homeschool OpenClaw🦞 for a week without any issue 💕 Sooo much cheaper than Anthropic options in general, but with my Mac Studio it’s running for the cost of electricity!

Claude Code is the OpenClaw alternative you already had. I've been telling people this in person for three months. Now it's a piece on Every 📧. When OpenClaw was at peak hype a few months ago, everyone was going crazy over it — for good reasons. But almost nobody made the obvious comparison: Claude Code already does the thing you love about OpenClaw. In a lot of cases, better. Here's why people missed it. You have to understand the difference between a model and a harness. OpenClaw, at the end of the day, is just a harness on top of AI models. And Claude Code is too — it just got marketed as a coding tool, an alternative to Cursor. Until Cowork launched, almost nobody looked at it as a tool for non-programmers. Dan Shipper 📧 was one of the earliest to make that claim, and he was damn right. Let Claude Code run from the home folder of your computer with free access, and you get exactly what made OpenClaw exciting. Instead of just arguing it, here's a video walkthrough of a couple of my AI employees i built on the Claude Code harness. And here's the full article:

Here’s a quick few turns on the new #SonicBlitz Update, which has just revamped the Core Mechanics of the game. It’s… one lane now instead of two, which makes it so multiple cards now do completely different things, and so far I’m struggling to understand where the strategy lies in this new version. Can’t judge with only one match though. We’ll see. #SonicNews

Finally got a chance to play around with Andrej Karpathy's LLM Council. I built it as a plugin inside of Claude Code. Hooked it up with OpenRouter for models. The AskUserQuestion tool came in handy to select the council and chairman. This is my first test, but I agree with Karpathy that the concept of LLM ensembles can be used beyond models that offer perspectives on interesting questions. I feel like this could have really cool applications in agentic coding. More on that soon. I built this as a plugin, so next I will be exploring other user cases around agentic coding, like evaluation, tool building, designing, and research. If there is enough interest, I will clean it up and push it out as an open plugin.

Using Claude Pro credits no longer works on OpenClaw! Many heavy OpenClaw users were signing up for Claude Code subscriptions and then using their OAuth tokens to power the virtual assistant. But what was once a gray area is now an explicit violation of Anthropic policy. Users can no longer use their tokens in a third party tool as a work-around for not having to pay per use! What happens now? Will everyone start shifting to the cheaper Chinese models like Kimi?

This guy literally tested Hermes Agent vs OpenClaw side by side. Hermes won. And it wasn't close. Here's what made the difference: → Hermes built the website faster → Hermes gave live updates the whole time. OpenClaw went silent. → Hermes designed a cleaner page using the exact same AI model → And then Hermes did something OpenClaw can't do at all. It learned from the task. Every mistake gets logged. Every win gets saved as a reusable skill. The more you use it, the smarter it gets. OpenClaw doesn't do this unless you manually set up a learning file. Hermes does it automatically. Every single time. Other wins: → Runs free with Ollama + MiniMax → Works on Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, and Email → Supports 200+ AI models → Built-in migration tool from OpenClaw — one command to switch 11,600 GitHub stars. 142 contributors. If you're already on OpenClaw, you don't have to start over. Just ask Hermes to import everything.

OpenClaw just got a lot cheaper to run. Alibaba Cloud dropped a Coding Plan that gives you 4 frontier models under one API key. Plug it straight into OpenClaw and you're done. Qwen 3.5-Plus. Kimi K2.5. MiniMax M2.5. GLM-5. 18,000 requests a month for just $10. In single subscriptions, you can swap the models and keep building. The interesting part isn't even the price. It's that they built this for developers already inside tools like OpenClaw, Claude Code, and Cline. The top engineers will quietly plug this in this week and say nothing. The rest will find out in 6 months when the cost gap is impossible to ignore. Setup takes 30 seconds. 👇

OpenClaw meets RL! OpenClaw Agents adapt through memory files and skills, but the base model weights never actually change. OpenClaw-RL solves this! It wraps a self-hosted model as an OpenAI-compatible API, intercepts live conversations from OpenClaw, and trains the policy in the background using RL. The architecture is fully async. This means serving, reward scoring, and training all run in parallel. Once done, weights get hot-swapped after every batch while the agent keeps responding. Currently, it has two training modes: - Binary RL (GRPO): A process reward model scores each turn as good, bad, or neutral. That scalar reward drives policy updates via a PPO-style clipped objective. - On-Policy Distillation: When concrete corrections come in like "you should have checked that file first," it uses that feedback as a richer, directional training signal at the token level. When to use OpenClaw-RL? To be fair, a lot of agent behavior can already be improved through better memory and skill design. OpenClaw's existing skill ecosystem and community-built self-improvement skills handle a wide range of use cases without touching model weights at all. If the agent keeps forgetting preferences, that's a memory problem. And if it doesn't know how to handle a specific workflow, that's a skill problem. Both are solvable at the prompt and context layer. Where RL becomes interesting is when the failure pattern lives deeper in the model's reasoning itself. Things like consistently poor tool selection order, weak multi-step planning, or failing to interpret ambiguous instructions the way a specific user intends. Research on agentic RL (like ARTIST and Agent-R1) has shown that these behavioral patterns hit a ceiling with prompt-based approaches alone, especially in complex multi-turn tasks where the model needs to recover from tool failures or adapt its strategy mid-execution. That's the layer OpenClaw-RL targets, and it's a meaningful distinction from what OpenClaw offers. I have shared the repo in the replies!

Hermes Agent now has Computer Use🤯 You can now control your actual computer with ANY model through Hermes Agent × Cua not just frontier models locked behind special modes. Even crazier: • Runs entirely in the background • Doesn’t hijack your PC • You keep full control of your keyboard, mouse, and screen while the agent works This is starting to feel less like an AI chatbot and more like a real agentic operating system.

Introducing Open Source AI CRM, that runs on your OpenClaw. A few weeks ago, we launched Ironclaw (An Open Source OpenClaw CRM Framework) which now has around 1.4k stars. A lot of people confused us with NearAI’s Ironclaw, so we changed our name to DenchClaw. OpenClaw today feels a lot like early React: the primitive is incredibly powerful, but the patterns are still forming, and everyone is piecing together their own way to actually use it. What made React explode wasn’t just React itself, but the emergence of frameworks like Gatsby and Next.js that turned raw capability into something opinionated, repeatable, and easy to adopt. That is how I think about DenchClaw. We are not just building on top of OpenClaw; we are trying to make it one of the clearest, most practical, and most complete ways to use OpenClaw in the real world. We are an OpenClaw Framework, we are aiming to be the most correct way to use OpenClaw. We entered Y Combinator with Merse (AI Audio Comic), it was an app that I personally never used. Michael Seibel confronted us on it, and said, “if you aren’t the best user of your consumer app, then who is?”. I now use DenchClaw daily for everything I do, it also works as a coding agent like Cursor, DenchClaw built DenchClaw. I am addicted to DenchClaw now that I can ask it, “hey in the companies table only show me the ones who have more than 5 employees” and it updates it live than me having to manually add a filter. On Dench, everything sits in a file system, the table filters, views, column toggles, calendar/gantt views, etc, so OpenClaw can directly work with it using Dench’s CRM skill. The CRM is built on top of DuckDB, the smallest, most performant and at the same time also feature rich database we could find. It creates a new OpenClaw🦞 profile called “dench”, and opens a new OpenClaw Gateway… that means you can run all your usual openclaw commands by just prefixing every command with `openclaw --profile dench` . It will start your gateway on port 19001 range. You will be able to access the DenchClaw frontend at localhost:3100. Once you open it on Safari, just add it to your Dock to use it as a PWA. Think of it as Cursor for your Mac which is based on OpenClaw. DenchClaw has a file tree view for you to use it as an elevated finder tool to do anything on your mac. I use it to create slides, do LinkedIn outreach using MY browser. DenchClaw sees what you see, does what you do. It’s the everything app, that sits locally on your mac. All yours. Just ask it “hey import my notion”, “hey import everything from my hubspot”, and it will literally go into your browser, export all objects and documents and put it in its own workspace that you can use. P.S. It comes with Garry Tan's GStack built in.
