Four new models are live on every ClawCloud instance. The managed catalog went from 94 to 101 — seven new entries total across the native and OpenRouter catalogs.
Here's what was added:
Claude Sonnet 4.6
Anthropic's newest mid-range model. If you've been using Sonnet 4.5 or Opus 4.5, this is the direct upgrade path. It's already in both the native Anthropic and OpenRouter sections, so it works in BYOK and managed mode.
Switch to it on your own Anthropic key (BYOK):
/model anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-6
On managed credits (OpenRouter):
/model anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6
The existing sonnet alias still points to Claude Sonnet 4.5. If you want 4.6 specifically, use the full model ID for now.
GPT-5.3 Codex
OpenAI's latest code-focused model. If you use your OpenClaw bot for code review, debugging, or generation, this is worth trying. It follows the same pattern as previous Codex variants (5-Codex, 5.1-Codex, 5.2-Codex) but with the 5.3 base.
/model openai/gpt-5.3-codex
The gpt alias still maps to GPT-5.2 for general use.
Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview
Google's latest pro-tier model. Slots in alongside the existing Gemini 3 Flash and Gemini 3 Pro previews. If you're on a Google API key (BYOK) or using managed credits, it's available.
/model google/gemini-3.1-pro-preview
Grok Code Fast 1
xAI's first code-focused model, added to the OpenRouter catalog. This brings the total xAI models on ClawCloud to six (Grok 3, Grok 3 Mini, Grok 4, Grok 4 Fast, Grok 4.1 Fast, and now Grok Code Fast 1).
/model x-ai/grok-code-fast-1

No action needed
If your OpenClaw bot is already running on ClawCloud, these models are applied on the next agent defaults cycle. New deployments get them out of the box.
To see the full list on your bot, send /models in chat. To switch, send /model <id>. For the current catalog with aliases, see OpenClaw Models. For details on how model switching works, check the model switching guide.
Running DeepSeek or Qwen? Those were added earlier this month. See the DeepSeek and Qwen post for details on those models.
