OpenClaw news (Apr 19, 2026)

What’s new

• Pre-release fix for multi-account setups: cross-agent subagent spawns now route through the target agent’s bound channel account, so child sessions stop inheriting the caller’s account in shared rooms. Source
• Gemini TTS shows up in April changelogs: text-to-speech support (voice selection, WAV reply output, and telephony-friendly PCM) is landing via the bundled Google plugin. Source
• New telephony skill announcement: “Ring-a-Ding” launched as an OpenClaw skill aimed at outbound phone-call workflows (quotes, bookings, availability checks). Source

One evergreen tip

If your agent can touch multiple accounts, make “who am I acting as?” explicit: log the channel account id, keep it visible in status cards, and pass it through child tasks instead of guessing.
