That usually means the bundled plugin runtime deps didn’t stage/install correctly — not that all 24 plugins are individually misconfigured.

First: what does this print?

openclaw --version

Then try the repair path:

openclaw status --all
openclaw doctor --fix
openclaw gateway restart

If it still fails, please paste the relevant redacted output from:

#

openclaw status --all
openclaw logs --tail 200

If this is 2026.4.24, we’ve seen a similar pattern around bundled plugin runtime deps. Updating to the latest patch is the best first move; if you’re hard-blocked, mention your OS + install method too.

OpenClaw 2026.4.24 (cbcfdf6)

Yep — 2026.4.24 is the suspicious one here. I checked npm and it’s still the latest right now, so openclaw update probably won’t move you forward yet.

Try repair once:

openclaw doctor --fix
openclaw gateway restart

If it still reports those 24 plugin validation failures, I’d temporarily roll back to the previous package:

openclaw gateway stop
pnpm add -g openclaw@2026.4.23
openclaw doctor --fix
openclaw gateway restart
