## OpenClaw Upgrade — March 4 AM

### Pre-upgrade state
- Version before upgrade: 2026.2.21-2
- Backup location: ~/openclaw-backup-20260303/ (9.5 MB sqlite, all configs, secrets, memory, calls.jsonl, action board)

### Upgrade steps completed
- npm install -g openclaw@2026.3.2 --prefix ~/.npm-global (landed in lib/node_modules, not node_modules)
- Version 2026.3.2 confirmed at ~/.npm-global/lib/node_modules/openclaw/
- Doctor ran: no hard errors; flagged service entrypoint mismatch + 1297 orphan transcripts + legacy session keys
- doctor --fix did NOT auto-patch service file — manual fix required
- Step 10.6B: service file updated (ExecStart + SERVICE_VERSION) → both confirmed correct
- Step 10.6C: systemctl --user daemon-reload → OK
- Step 11: systemctl --user restart openclaw-gateway.service issued — restart in progress at time of compaction

### Key findings
- New binary path: ~/.npm-global/lib/node_modules/openclaw/dist/index.js
- Old binary path: ~/.npm-global/node_modules/openclaw/dist/index.js (still present, old version)
- directPolicy: not set → default "allow" → DMs work ✅
- Plugins: 6 loaded, 0 errors ✅
- Security: clean ✅
- which openclaw → /home/isthekid/.npm-global/bin/openclaw
