OpenClaw 2026.3.13 Released + Agentbot Progress Update
OpenClaw 2026.3.13 is now the production runtime across all Agentbot deployments. This release brings Ollama support, the A2A protocol, streaming infrastructure, and smart AI tiers — plus Agentbot achieves A++ certification ahead of the March 31 launch.
OpenClaw 2026.3.13 — What's New
Ollama Support
Run local models via Ollama alongside cloud providers. Agents can now route tasks to locally-hosted LLMs for latency-sensitive or privacy-critical workloads, with automatic fallback to cloud when needed.
A2A Protocol
Agent-to-Agent communication is now native. OpenClaw agents can discover, authenticate, and delegate tasks to other agents on the network — building composable multi-agent pipelines without manual orchestration.
Streaming Responses
All AI responses now stream in real time to connected clients. Telegram, Discord, and WhatsApp channels receive token-by-token output, eliminating the perception of lag on longer generations.
Smart AI Tiers
Agents now select model tier automatically based on task type:
- Reasoning — complex analysis, long-form planning
- Coding — code generation, debugging, refactoring
- Fast — quick lookups, routing, classification
- Creative — writing, ideation, content generation
This cuts inference costs by 40–60% while keeping response quality high for each use case.
Additional Improvements
- Enhanced agent orchestration with better task queuing
- Improved Docker container stability and restart recovery
- Memory persistence across agent restarts
- Better rate limiting and backoff on provider errors
- Reduced cold-start time by 35%
Agentbot: A++ Certification
Agentbot passed a full pre-launch audit this week, covering 52 atomic criteria across design consistency, API integrity, skills verification, and build pipeline health. The platform achieved A++ status — every page aligned to the design system, every skill functional, zero build errors.
What Was Audited
- Design system lock — zero forbidden tokens across 15+ pages
- Skills base verification — 11 platform skills confirmed functional
- Build pipeline — Turbopack clean, zero TypeScript errors
- Agent provisioning — real backend wiring via
/api/deployments - Dashboard async fix —
useEffectIIFE pattern enforced
10 Days to Launch
March 31 is locked. Agentbot goes live with three plans:
- Underground — £29/mo — 1 agent, community access
- Collective — £69/mo — 3 agents, priority support
- Label — £199/mo — 10 agents, white-glove onboarding
All plans run OpenClaw 2026.3.13 from day one, with automatic updates as new versions ship.
Deploy your first agent in under 60 seconds.
