OpenClaw v2026.9.9 patch release adds GPT-6.1 Sol and Haiku 5.5 support

OpenClaw v2026.9.9 is now available on the stable channel as a patch release, introducing support for new models and resolving several operational issues.

New Model Support

• GPT-6.1 Sol has been added to the Codex model list, requiring an eligible account and compatible Codex setup.
• Claude Haiku 5.5 is supported via the Anthropic API and Claude CLI, with the haiku alias now defaulting to this version and adaptive thinking enabled.

Key Fixes and Improvements

• Update Recovery: Improved handling for failed updates, addressing false maintenance warnings and failures in Windows, Docker, and package-manager environments.
• Messaging: Fixed an issue where iMessage replies could be generated but not sent.
• Scheduling: An old scheduled job timing out no longer interrupts newer conversations in the same session.
• UI: Chat scrolling now preserves reading position when browsing history and maintains focus on new replies.

Upgrade Notes

• September stable upgrades retain the data format from 2026.9.8.
• Warning: If an October beta has already converted data to a newer format, v2026.9.9 cannot open, downgrade, or repair it.
• Known Issue: Interrupted one-shot jobs may run again after a restart, potentially causing duplicate deliveries.
