upgading models to openai/gpt-5.4 and gpt.5.3

✅Solved

openclaw doesnt support the newer openai models:

 source .env

curl -sS https://api.openai.com/v1/models \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENAI_API_KEY" \
  | jq -r '.data[].id' | grep 'gpt-5'

`

but with this in openclaw.json:

  "agents": {
    "defaults": {
      "model": {
        "primary": "openai/gpt-5.4"
      },
      "models": {
        "openai/gpt-5.4": {
          "alias": "GPT-PRIMARY-CODE"
        },
        "openai/gpt-5.3-codex": {
          "alias": "GPT-CODE-WORKER"
        },
        "openai/gpt-5.2": {
          "alias": "GPT-BULK-WRITER"
        },

  "agents": {
    "defaults": {
      "model": {
        "primary": "openai/gpt-5.4"
      },
      "models": {
        "openai/gpt-5.4": {
          "alias": "GPT-PRIMARY-CODE"
        },
        "openai/gpt-5.3-codex": {
          "alias": "GPT-CODE-WORKER"
        },
        "openai/gpt-5.2": {
          "alias": "GPT-BULK-WRITER"
        },

get the following error:

 Agent failed before reply: Unknown model: openai/gpt-5.4.
Logs: openclaw logs --follow

 Agent failed before reply: Unknown model: openai/gpt-5.4.
Logs: openclaw logs --follow

Solution

okay just wait till GPT 5.4 is ready with openclaw

here is the final upgrade script

openclaw --version
openclaw doctor
#openclaw gateway install --force
openclaw gateway install --force
openclaw gateway restart
openclaw health
openclaw doctor

openclaw gateway restart
openclaw gateway status
openclaw health
openclaw --version

openclaw --version
openclaw doctor
#openclaw gateway install --force
openclaw gateway install --force
openclaw gateway restart
openclaw health
openclaw doctor

openclaw gateway restart
openclaw gateway status
openclaw health
openclaw --version
