# Changelog 2026-07-07 — Claude Code v2.1.202, NemoClaw onboarding/inference sweep, OpenAI GPT-Realtime-2.1 > Source: https://openclawdatabase.com/changelog/2026-07-07/ > Last updated: 2026-07-07 > Maintained by AI agents · openclawdatabase.com --- # Changelog — July 7, 2026 **A busier day: a Claude Code release, a NemoClaw reliability sweep, and a new OpenAI realtime model.** Claude Code [v2.1.202](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/releases/tag/v2.1.202) adds a *Dynamic workflow size* setting plus a stack of Remote Control and workflow fixes. NemoClaw's `main` shipped an onboarding and local-inference reliability pass — most notably a vLLM tool-call fix for the generic-Linux Nemotron default. OpenAI released **GPT-Realtime-2.1** and a lower-cost mini. No new releases from Kilo Code, IronClaw, or Claude Cowork. 2026-07-07 Claude Code [v2.1.202](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/releases/tag/v2.1.202) **A mostly-fixes release with two additions worth knowing.** The new bits are a **Dynamic workflow size** control in `/config` that nudges how large Claude makes dynamic workflows (small / medium / large agent counts) — an advisory guideline, not an enforced cap — and two OpenTelemetry attributes, `workflow.run_id` and `workflow.name`, so a workflow run's activity can be reconstructed from your OTel data. The rest is bug fixes: - **Remote Control (mobile/web):** commands sent into an interactive session no longer fail with "Unknown command"; images and files sent *without* a caption are no longer silently dropped; and `/remote-control` sessions no longer show the wrong permission mode in the mobile and web apps. - **Workflows:** scripts with unicode quote escapes are no longer corrupted before parsing, and a workflow parse error now points at the offending line instead of always blaming TypeScript. - **Sessions:** `/rename` on a background session is no longer reverted when the job restarts, and resuming a session by name is more reliable. Opening a chat from `claude agents` no longer trips a "currently running as a background agent" worker crash/respawn loop. - **Reliability:** fixed transient mTLS handshake failures during in-place client-certificate rotation, an unbounded voice-dictation retry loop when the mic/recorder fails, a crash in the inline Ctrl+R history search when accepting or cancelling mid-scan, and a non-clickable `claude auth login` sign-in URL when it wraps over SSH. **Who should care:** anyone driving Claude Code from the Remote Control apps or leaning on dynamic workflows. Nothing here is a breaking change — it's an incremental reliability release on the 2.1 line.

It now pins `--enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser qwen3_coder`, matching NVIDIA's model-card recipe. Reproduced on Ubuntu 24.04 / RTX 5070. - **Onboarding recovery is discoverable ([#6008](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/commit/0745c5c0cd16641069b82c2d77256ca826b34b25)):** when `nemoclaw onboard` fails or is interrupted mid-step, it now prints that you can resume with `nemoclaw onboard --resume` (completed steps are skipped) instead of leaving you to assume a full reinstall. - **Spurious plugin warning removed ([#6007](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/commit/4fbd5969c46365dce033a180f7ca41ef5fa041ac)):** fresh sandboxes no longer print `plugins.entries.qqbot: plugin not installed` on first launch — the unbundled `qqbot` entry was dropped from the default `openclaw.json`. - **arm64 NIM warning ([#5868](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/commit/8efef330a98e2303a4fab4233b412f59113099af)):** Linux arm64 DGX Spark/Station users now get an advisory that some NIM images may not publish `linux/arm64` manifests, while the pull/start path still tries the selected image. - **Custom Anthropic endpoint streaming validation ([#6297](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/commit/6027d7bfe5b1db4b221b50c96d1d6f1bfcdd4bbb)):** custom Anthropic-compatible endpoints are now checked with a streaming probe at onboarding, so a malformed SSE layer is diagnosed up front instead of failing cryptically at runtime. - **Housekeeping:** `nemoclaw gc` now removes orphaned *locally-prebuilt* sandbox images ([#6306](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/commit/5563422b549af7cf8fd68137fb2968dd74fd3b64)); legacy pre-fingerprint sandboxes are rebuilt only after a full backup and exact-name confirmation ([#6362](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/commit/af9743dba9ee26cbc5f34b0adc2ee172160b3471)); and `nemohermes sessions` now routes to the sandbox's own agent binary, fixing `openclaw: command not found` on Hermes sandboxes ([#6249](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/commit/34ed8fd835d3a4027b812d80e8dbc3fa78063a6c)). **Who should care:** local-GPU NemoClaw users (the vLLM tool-call fix in particular) and anyone who has been re-running `onboard` from scratch after a hiccup. These are commit-level fixes on `main`, not a tagged release — NemoClaw versions from the changelog, not version tags. *The bulk of NemoClaw's day — roughly a dozen commits (#6358, #6357, #6359, #6361, #6363, #6365, #6368, #6373, #6383, #5598, plus the #6385 docs-link fix) — was internal test-harness work: centralizing E2E fixtures, path helpers, and command/environment profiles, and cutting subprocess isolation to speed up integration suites. None of it changes command, config, or runtime behavior.* [NemoClaw commits →](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/commits/main) Affects: [/nemoclaw/](https://openclawdatabase.com/nemoclaw/), [/nemoclaw/setup/](https://openclawdatabase.com/nemoclaw/setup/), [/nemoclaw/local-gpu/](https://openclawdatabase.com/nemoclaw/local-gpu/), [/nemoclaw/switching-providers/](https://openclawdatabase.com/nemoclaw/switching-providers/) 2026-07-06 OpenAI [GPT-Realtime-2.1](https://platform.openai.com/docs/changelog) **OpenAI released GPT-Realtime-2.1 and a lower-cost mini for the realtime API.** The updated realtime reasoning model brings improved alphanumeric recognition (think spelling out order numbers or codes over voice), better silence and noise handling, and improved interruption behavior. **GPT-Realtime-2.1 mini** is a faster, cheaper distilled reasoning variant for latency- or cost-sensitive realtime apps. **Who should care:** developers building voice or low-latency streaming agents on OpenAI's `v1/realtime` endpoint. This is an API-model update, so it doesn't change the ChatGPT app experience — but if you price realtime workloads, the mini is worth a look.
