OpenClaw at a glance
OpenClaw is an open-source AI assistant that runs on your own hardware and can be used on Windows, macOS and Linux. It accepts tasks via chat platforms, carries them out with connected tools and can access files, browsers and services in the process.
The project uses date-based version numbers and publishes beta builds alongside stable ones as GitHub releases. The intervals are short, and the release notes name changes to integrations, security settings and defaults.
When updating, keep in mind that such an assistant can hold far-reaching permissions. Before switching, check which accounts, keys and directories it can reach and whether permissions have changed in the new release. It belongs in a separated environment, and beta builds should not run on systems with production access.
