Documentation
OpenClaw Update Checker
Read-only version checker. Compares the installed OpenClaw version against the npm registry and reports whether updates are available. Does not install, modify, or restart anything.
Usage
# Human-readable output python3 scripts/check_update.py # Machine-readable JSON (for dashboards, cron, integrations) python3 scripts/check_update.py --format json
Output
Text mode: One-liner if current, or a summary showing installed vs latest version and number of versions behind. JSON mode: { "installed": "2026.2.21-2", "latest": "2026.2.21-2", "up_to_date": true, "newer_versions": [], "changelog_url": "https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/releases/tag/v2026.2.21" }
How It Works
Reads the installed version from the local package.json file at known npm global install paths (/usr/lib/node_modules/openclaw/package.json or /usr/local/lib/node_modules/openclaw/package.json) Queries the npm registry via an HTTPS GET request to https://registry.npmjs.org/openclaw using Python's urllib.request (stdlib) Compares versions and reports the result
What It Does NOT Do
Does not install or update any packages Does not write to any files Does not restart any services Does not execute any subprocesses or shell commands
System Access
File reads: /usr/lib/node_modules/openclaw/package.json and /usr/local/lib/node_modules/openclaw/package.json (read-only, to determine installed version) Network: Single HTTPS GET to https://registry.npmjs.org/openclaw (read-only, no authentication, to fetch available versions)
Requirements
Python 3.10+ (uses str | None type union syntax) OpenClaw installed globally via npm Outbound HTTPS access to registry.npmjs.org
Category context
