From the AI digest for 2026-10-02

OpenClaw week (~11:22 PM ET): (1) 50+ first-party plugins added from Notion, Canva, Dropbox et al. — installable directly from chat, hot-reloaded, no gateway restart; (2) ClawScan now integrates Tencent Hunyuan's AI-Infra-Guard (AIG) as part of the security review every skill and plugin upload to ClawHub passes through. Same-week context: the AI Worth Using × OpenClaw 2.0 hackathon reached its final five (Rundown, Milo, Sitemaxxing, RELAY, Meetly) with a winner promised by end-of-day Oct 1.

What's genuinely new: the harness is becoming a marketplace with a supply chain — vendor-distributed plugins plus automated security review is the shape that makes or breaks these ecosystems; AIG integration means the review layer is vendor-model-based from day one.

Watch: the hackathon winner; whether plugin trust signals surface to users pre-install.
