**[OpenClaw 2.0 Released: The Biggest Update in History After 7 Weeks of Silence]** Beating AI News Flash: OpenClaw's last major version was released in mid-July, and there have been no official major updates for nearly 7 weeks since. Previously, updates were released approximately every two days, but this time the pace has clearly slowed down. Today, the OpenClaw team released a new version called "OpenClaw 2.0," which is also the largest update in the project's history. A total of 933 developers participated, merging over 16,000 PRs, accounting for about half of all PRs ever merged in the project's history. The focus of this update is to lower the barrier to entry. During installation, it will automatically detect existing ChatGPT, Claude subscriptions, API Keys, and local models on the computer, reducing the need for manual configuration. The browser interface has also been revamped, allowing users to chat directly, continue tasks, and manage sessions. It now supports multiple users joining or taking over the same task. The update also includes improvements to messaging, memory, Skills, models, automation, plugins, security, and native apps. Over the past 230 days, OpenClaw has released 106 versions. The team admitted that the previous release pace was too fast, and the underlying architecture and release process could no longer keep up. Moving forward, OpenClaw plans to reduce the update frequency. [Original Link]
