v0.0.57

NemoClaw v0.0.57 improves multi-agent command workflows, local inference setup, messaging channel reliability, sandbox diagnostics, policy persistence, and installer pinning:

  • OpenClaw sandboxes can manage conversation sessions and secondary agents from the host CLI. Use nemoclaw <name> sessions to list sessions, reset a session key through the OpenClaw gateway, or delete a non-main session, and use nemoclaw <name> agents add or nemoclaw <name> agents delete to invoke the in-sandbox OpenClaw agent commands. Build-time config also accepts NEMOCLAW_EXTRA_AGENTS_JSON so operators can bake validated secondary-agent entries into agents.list without replacing the primary main agent. For more information, refer to NemoClaw CLI Commands Reference.
  • Local inference setup is more observable and more resilient. Managed vLLM on DGX Spark defaults to nvidia/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-NVFP4, streams Hugging Face model-download progress, polls /v1/models for readiness, and uses a progress-aware Docker pull watchdog. Local Ollama routes request streaming usage metadata so OpenClaw token counters can update, and connect warns when the recorded inference route diverges from the live gateway route instead of reverting silently. For more information, refer to Choose a Local Inference Server.
  • Onboarding and re-onboarding preserve more operator intent. Linux Docker-driver onboarding can auto-apply a narrow UFW rule for the sandbox-to-gateway bridge when NEMOCLAW_AUTO_FIX_FIREWALL=1, verifies host-network local-inference reachability before reporting success, reuses healthy containerized gateways, binds gateway state by port, rolls back a freshly-created sandbox when setup is cancelled at the policy preset step, and carries finalized policy preset selections across later re-onboard runs. For more information, refer to NemoClaw CLI Commands Reference.
  • Messaging channel setup fails earlier and leaves fewer partial changes. Slack setup validates both Socket Mode tokens before saving credentials, channels add checks the matching built-in policy preset before prompting or persisting channel state, failed preset application rolls back staged bridge changes when possible, WhatsApp pairing renders a compact QR code with clearer gateway diagnostics, and Slack runtime placeholders are normalized before OpenClaw starts. For more information, refer to Add Channels After Onboarding.
  • Sandbox status and repair output are more actionable. nemoclaw <name> status reports Docker daemon, stopped-container, dashboard-port-conflict, and paused-container layers without running misleading inference probes, doctor skips stale Kubernetes-only gateway container checks on Docker-driver installs, and stale local registry entries are preserved so the suggested rebuild --yes recovery path still has the metadata it needs. For more information, refer to NemoClaw CLI Commands Reference.
  • Installer and policy guidance tightened. Piped installs show the correct NEMOCLAW_INSTALL_TAG placement and fail clearly when a requested ref is unavailable, the pypi preset allows the uv package manager binary, and Jira validation now uses a body-visible Atlassian API probe so operators can distinguish blocked and approved curl traffic.
