OpenClaw Development

Reduces plugin boot time by splitting manifest fetch from full plugin load, enabling lazy init.

OpenClaw Performance

Avoids repeated expensive manifest validation by caching derived configs, with TTL-based invalidation for dev/prod restarts.

OpenClaw Sandbox

Sandbox Mount Hardening

Enforces read-only FS mounts by default for plugin sandboxes, reducing lateral movement risk from vuln plugins.

OpenClaw Issue Tracker
