OpenClawOpenClaw has released version 2026.2.3, bringing Cloudflare AI Gateway integration, a new provider targeting the Chinese market, and security improvements to the locally-running AI agent platform.
The update, announced on GitHub by founder Peter Steinberger, introduces four major features: Cloudflare AI Gateway support, a Moonshot provider for China, self-announcing cron summaries, and security hardening across the platform.
Cloudflare Gateway and China Market Entry
The Cloudflare AI Gateway integration gives OpenClaw users a unified control plane for managing AI model requests. The gateway provides caching, rate limiting, and analytics across multiple AI providers, potentially reducing costs and improving reliability for users running agents that make frequent API calls.
The Moonshot provider addition marks OpenClaw's formal expansion into the Chinese market. Moonshot AI, a Beijing-based company known for its Kimi large language model, offers localized AI capabilities that comply with Chinese regulatory requirements. This move follows OpenClaw's recent momentum after surpassing React in GitHub stars last month.
Cron Gets Smarter
The cron feature now announces its own summaries, eliminating the need for users to manually check scheduled task outputs. When a scheduled agent completes a job, it can push a summary directly to configured chat apps like Telegram or Slack, where OpenClaw already operates.
This builds on OpenClaw's core architecture: the agent runs entirely on local hardware but integrates with messaging platforms for interaction. Users maintain control over their data while gaining the convenience of chat-based AI assistance.
Security Hardening and TypeScript Cleanup
The security improvements arrive two weeks after OpenClaw partnered with VirusTotal to automatically scan ClawHub skills for malware. While the release notes don't detail specific security patches, the timing suggests continued focus on threat prevention following that integration.
On the development side, the team removed the last @ts-nocheck directives from the Telegram integration code, completing a migration to proper TypeScript typing. The changes include direct use of Grammy types and deduplicated sticker metadata handling. According to the release notes, zero @ts-nocheck comments now remain in the Telegram source directory.
ClawCon Mention
Steinberger's announcement included a cryptic reference to "the first ClawCon" with the note that recipients "weren't invited." No public details about the event have been shared, though it likely refers to an internal team gathering or private user summit. The project has grown rapidly since rebranding from Moltbot to OpenClaw in January, now claiming over 310,000 GitHub stars.
OpenClaw 2026.2.3 is available now on GitHub. The platform requires local installation and supports multiple AI providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, and now Moonshot for Chinese users.
