First public release of OpenClaw Outer Loop.
OpenClaw Outer Loop adds bounded same-session continuation so an agent can keep working across completed turns until the task is done or truly blocked, instead of stopping early and waiting for another human “go ahead” message.
What’s included in v0.1.0:
- live same-session continuation bridge
- plugin-driven continuation policy
- duplicate-pending protection
- real inbound preemption protection
- bounded continuation count with live user controls
- startup banner and operator-facing command UX
- live proof in a patched OpenClaw gateway
Live commands:
/outerloop status/outerloop on/outerloop off/outerloop max <n>
Bounds:
- minimum max continuations:
1 - maximum max continuations:
10 - default:
3
Tested on:
- OpenClaw
3.13
Important:
- this release requires both the plugin and the runtime patch
- the runtime patch filename is version-specific and may change on OpenClaw update
- transcript/internal tagging for continuation turns is not included yet
Planned for v0.1.1:
- transcript/internal tagging so continuation turns no longer look like ordinary user messages in session history
This is the first public release. It is live-working and suitable for internal operators who are comfortable applying a targeted runtime patch and testing an autonomy feature in real workflows.
