10 commits landed across OpenClaw in the last 3 hours. This is a UI-and-feel batch: Peter Steinberger drove most of it, with Vincent Koc trimming dead surface area and Alix-007 hardening realtime signaling.
What Changed
Android skill management polish (#105592). Steinberger tightened the skill-management flow on Android — the mobile side of OpenClaw keeps getting first-class attention rather than being an afterthought.
An animated claw banner (#105540). feat(cli): animate the claw banner and show it on gateway startup means the claw now animates in and greets you the moment the gateway boots. Small, but it sets the tone for every session.
The working claw now punches (#105597). improve(ui): make the working claw punch instead of fade — while the agent is working, the claw has more presence instead of quietly fading out.
Three real UI fixes. #105603 stops queued steers from appearing below the composer, #105598 fixes the sidebar sort/group/customize menus rendering behind the resize divider, and #105600 locks the workboard draft during save so concurrent edits don't clobber each other.
Realtime hardening (#104662). Alix-007 added a timeout to WebRTC offer requests, so a stalled peer negotiation can't hang the connection indefinitely.
Cleanup. Vincent Koc trimmed dead plugin exports (#105612) and internal helper surface (#105606), and Steinberger replaced broken export-report lanes with an enforced knip exports ratchet (#105595) — dead-code enforcement that actually holds instead of reporting into a void.
Why It Matters
This batch is polish-plus-safety: the visible changes make OpenClaw feel alive on startup and on mobile, while the quieter commits stop drafts from corrupting, menus from hiding, and WebRTC from hanging. The knip ratchet is the kind of invisible investment that makes the next feature cheaper to ship. For where the platform is heading at scale, our OpenClaw Claude session fleet coverage shows the fleet trajectory these cleanups feed.
