OpenClaw GPT-5.5 migration target pivots — gpt-5.5 does not exist in…
Decision
OpenClaw GPT-5.5 migration target pivots — gpt-5.5 does not exist in OpenClaw 2026.4.15’s bundled model catalog. Highest GPT-5 tier accessible via Codex OAuth subscription is gpt-5.4-pro. Migration must select from gpt-5.4-pro / gpt-5.4-latest / gpt-5.4-codex; AJ choice pending.
Rationale
Grep across /home/openclaw/.nvm/versions/node/v24.13.0/lib/node_modules/openclaw/dist/ for hardcoded gpt-5\.[0-9]+ IDs surfaced only gpt-5.0 through gpt-5.4-pro (no gpt-5.5). Live openclaw models list after OAuth login showed only openai-codex/gpt-5.4 configured. Earlier WebFetch summary that mentioned gpt-5.5 under the openai provider’s models[] was a summarizer hallucination — the live bundle is ground truth per feedback_zero_compromise_no_api_guessing.md. Forward path: when OpenClaw upstream ships gpt-5.5, model swap is a single config-key change.
