plugins on clawhub

[plain fossil]

For code plugins on ClawHub, what exact value format should openclaw.compat.pluginApi and openclaw.build.openclawVersion use in package.json?

[glad beacon]

Yep, for code plugins published to ClawHub the expected format is:

"openclaw": {
  "compat": {
    "pluginApi": ">=2026.4.11"
  },
  "build": {
    "openclawVersion": "2026.4.11"
  }
}

So, exactly:

• openclaw.compat.pluginApi
  • semver range string

• normally >=<openclaw-version>

  • examples:
    • ">=2026.4.11"
    • ">=2026.3.24-beta.2"

• openclaw.build.openclawVersion

  • exact version string
  • no range operator
  • examples:
    • "2026.4.11"
    • "2026.3.24-beta.2"

I'd stick to the bare version form, no v prefix.

The docs/examples match that exactly:
