Bug: macOS app Sparkle updater offers downgrade (v2026.2.15) instead of latest
Running macOS app v2026.2.21 (build 13056). The built-in update checker prompts to "update" to v2026.2.15 โ which is a downgrade.
Root cause: appcast.xml on the main branch hasn't been updated since v2026.2.14. Sparkle reads this feed and offers the only version it finds.
Related issue: #18178
Gateway updates fine via pnpm update openclaw@latest โ this is macOS app only.
Suggestion: Either update appcast.xml with each release, or point the Sparkle feed to the GitHub Releases API so it stays in sync automatically.
Screenshot attached showing the downgrade prompt.
