 For more detailed release notes, refer to the [NemoClaw GitHub announcements](https://github.com/NVIDIA/NemoClaw/discussions/categories/announcements?discussions_q=is%3Aopen+category%3AAnnouncements).
 
+## v0.0.69
+
+NemoClaw v0.0.69 improves sandbox recovery, Deep Agents Code workflows, Hermes messaging, inference setup, policy approval guidance, and release validation.
+
+- Sandbox lifecycle and onboarding flows now preserve state more predictably across destroy, recreate, rebuild, recovery, and validation failures.
+  Destroy wipes persistent workspace and state directories, GPU recreate rolls back failed pre-patch sandboxes, recovery can rediscover live sandboxes when the local registry is empty, and hosted endpoint validation failures keep a nonzero exit status.
+  For more information, refer to [Manage Sandbox Lifecycle](../manage-sandboxes/lifecycle), [Backup and Restore](../manage-sandboxes/backup-restore), and [Troubleshooting](../reference/troubleshooting).
+- Deep Agents Code workflows now have clearer terminal and CLI behavior.
+  Session export reports actionable guidance for dash-prefixed arguments, warm-up sessions stay out of normal history, `nemo-deepagents` aliases share a consistent command surface, terminal runtime dispatch and version probes are more accurate, and status reports out-of-memory degradation with useful context.
+  For more information, refer to [Quickstart with LangChain Deep Agents Code](../get-started/quickstart-langchain-deepagents-code) and [NemoClaw CLI Commands Reference](../reference/commands).
+- Deep Agents Code rebuild and snapshot operations now protect more user state.
+  Skills created with `skill-creator` persist across rebuilds, the managed Python environment stays on `PATH`, rebuild warns before dropping user-managed files, and snapshot creation refuses to capture an active Deep Agents Code session.
+  For more information, refer to [Workspace Files](../manage-sandboxes/workspace-files), [Backup and Restore](../manage-sandboxes/backup-restore), and [Security Best Practices](../security/best-practices).
+- Hermes, messaging, and provider switching now use more explicit runtime state.
+  Hermes moves to the 2026.6.19 release line, supported messaging channels come from manifests, invalid channel values fail fast, reused sandboxes refresh stale messaging plans, Hermes preserves Slack-compatible aliases after upgrades, and provider switches retain endpoint, credential, and inference API metadata.
+  For more information, refer to [Messaging Channels](../manage-sandboxes/messaging-channels), [NemoClaw Quickstart with Hermes](../get-started/quickstart-hermes), and [Switch Inference Providers](../inference/switch-inference-providers).
+- Inference setup now handles local and compatible endpoints with tighter validation.
+  DGX Station managed vLLM defaults to DeepSeek V4 Flash, Ollama setup records explicit interaction state, compatible endpoint smoke checks retry only recognized transient failures, and validation redacts sensitive error details.
+  For more information, refer to [NemoClaw Inference Options](../inference/inference-options) and [Use a Local Inference Server](../inference/use-local-inference).
+- Security, policy, and observability paths now report safer runtime state.
+  Auto-restore seals the expected configuration hash, sandbox connect and login apply process and file-descriptor limits quietly, JSON agent failures keep parseable output with provenance warnings, log collection preserves per-source breadcrumbs, and in-sandbox Shields status no longer claims host posture it cannot verify.
+  For more information, refer to [Security Best Practices](../security/best-practices), [Credential Storage](../security/credential-storage), [NemoClaw CLI Commands Reference](../reference/commands), and [Monitor Sandbox Activity](../monitoring/monitor-sandbox-activity).
+- Documentation and release gates now cover more policy, approval, and live validation paths.
+  The docs include clearer policy round-trip and network-request approval examples, while the live release gates distinguish public NVIDIA API keys from hosted inference keys and exercise Deep Agents Code terminal behavior more directly.
+  For more information, refer to [Network Policies](../reference/network-policies), [Customize the Network Policy](../network-policy/customize-network-policy), and [Approve or Deny Agent Network Requests](../network-policy/approve-network-requests).
