NemoClaw v0.0.75 is out

[prekshivyas]

NemoClaw v0.0.75 upgrades the bundled OpenClaw runtime to 2026.6.10 and makes sandbox upgrade and recovery substantially more reliable. Recreating a gateway during an upgrade no longer strands a previously onboarded sandbox, gateway-orphaned sandboxes are recovered in place, and a same-name --fresh re-onboard keeps the newly selected route.

Inference routing across custom and compatible endpoints is more correct as well. Hermes custom Anthropic-compatible inference now runs on the OpenAI frontend, OpenAI-only agents keep their /v1 base URL on Anthropic-compatible endpoints, and local Docker-driver sandbox credentials no longer expire out from under a long-running session.

The release also continues a large investment in test performance and release tooling, shortening the CI suite and tightening release labeling without changing runtime behavior.

OpenClaw Runtime and Sandbox Upgrade Recovery

• #5595 upgrades the bundled OpenClaw runtime to 2026.6.10 and hardens the managed runtime integration. Supported installs move to one reviewed runtime contract with pinned packages and fail-closed archive and patch validation.
• #6370 restores gateway state during prepared-backup recovery and defers the live inference-route check to authoritative onboarding. Upgrading an existing install now recovers a previously onboarded sandbox instead of failing because the recreated gateway has not yet reconfigured its route.
• #6305 recovers gateway-orphaned sandboxes during an in-place upgrade. A sandbox bound to a retired gateway is recovered rather than left behind after the gateway is recreated.
• #6332 preserves the freshly selected LangChain Deep Agents Code routing on a same-name --fresh re-onboard. Re-onboarding keeps the new provider and model instead of restoring stale routing from backed-up config.

Inference Routing

• #6335 routes Hermes custom Anthropic-compatible inference through the OpenAI frontend. Switching a managed sandbox to a compatible endpoint now registers and reports the provider and model correctly.
• #6298 keeps the /v1 base URL for OpenAI-only agents pointed at an Anthropic-compatible endpoint. The base URL is no longer rewritten, so routing stays correct for those agents.

Local Gateway, Hermes, and MCP

• #6304 makes local Docker-driver sandbox JWTs use OpenShell's non-expiring local contract. A long-running local sandbox stays reachable without a manual gateway restart.
• #6261 reconciles Hermes runtime and managed MCP state after a runtime change. Managed MCP state stays consistent with the live runtime instead of drifting.
• #6318 accepts a pinned base platform digest during Hermes installation. Digest-pinned base platforms are validated and accepted instead of rejected.

OpenClaw and Release Workflows

• #6291 restores OpenClaw's previous local CLI pairing path. A local sandbox reconnects without an extra re-pairing step.
• #6233 warns when a pull request reviewer also contributed code to that PR. Reviewers can catch approval-independence gaps before merge.
• #6284 grants the release labeling workflow permission to write PR labels. Merged pull requests are labeled with their release target automatically.

Thank you

Thank you to contributors @HOYALIM for reducing layer-boundary fixture scans in #6322 and @prekshivyas for restoring gateway state during prepared recovery in #6370.
