OpenClaw v2026.3.24 shipped on March 25, 2026, delivering a complete Microsoft Teams overhaul, broader API compatibility for third-party clients, and streamlined skill management. Twelve contributors participated in this release.
Microsoft Teams SDK Migration
The Teams integration received its most significant upgrade yet, migrating to the official Microsoft Teams SDK. The new implementation brings AI-agent-specific UX improvements including streaming replies, welcome cards with prompt starters, and native AI labeling. Users can now also edit and delete sent messages — a long-requested feature for Teams deployments.
OpenAI-Compatible API Endpoints
The gateway now exposes /v1/models and /v1/embeddings endpoints with explicit model override forwarding. This makes OpenClaw instances compatible with a broader range of third-party clients and RAG pipelines that expect OpenAI-style API endpoints — a significant step toward enterprise integration.
Tools Visibility and One-Click Skills
A new /tools endpoint displays all tools available to the current agent, with a compact default view and optional detailed mode. The Control UI now includes a live "Available Right Now" section. Bundled skills gain one-click install recipes — when a skill's dependencies are missing, both the CLI and Control UI can install them automatically.
Discord Threading
Discord channels can now use autoThreadName: "generated" for LLM-generated thread titles, keeping busy Discord servers organized without manual thread management.
CLI Containerization
The new --container flag and OPENCLAW_CONTAINER environment variable allow running CLI commands inside Docker or Podman containers — useful for remote management and CI/CD pipelines.

- Fixed WhatsApp group echo, Telegram topic routing, and Discord timeout issues
