OpenClaw 2026.6.9-beta.1: Richer Telegram Delivery and Improved Channel Reliability

OpenClaw 2026.6.9-beta.1 is out, focused on channel delivery improvements.

Telegram gets a significant upgrade: rich HTML rendering, preserved markdown formatting, sticker path preservation, and more faithful progress draft and CLI-backed reply rendering. Mentions and spooled handlers now stay on the correct delivery path.

The release also includes durable channel reply fixes — Telegram polling and preview failures now recover instead of ending a stream, Slack keeps delivered replies in the transcript, and top-level image sends retain their intended media source.

Contributors in this release include @obviyus, @vin, @joshavant, @TurboTheTurtle, @xydigit-sj, @ichirokyoto, and @Ta.
