It set up daily checks, flagged a release, and rechecked the source when he questioned the version number. [OpenAI dots](https://www.automaticcompany.co/use-cases/agent/openai-dots/) Added Oct 13, 2026 ## What they did He asked the dot to monitor Lemonade Server, Windows Insider and Proxmox releases. It created a daily check and flagged a new Lemonade release. When he asked from his phone why the version number looked wrong, it went back to the official release page and GitHub's API and explained the project's year-and-week numbering. He also used it for a morning inbox brief and set a rule to confirm before any email is sent. ## How it went Tested by the press The release watch ran on its own and the dot refused to claim a performance gain the release notes did not mention. The morning brief was mostly useful. ## Good to know The inbox brief only saw the latest 40 emails because of a Gmail read limit, and dot memories cannot be edited one by one.

Tell me about any new version, what changed according to the official notes, and whether it is worth a post for . Link the source and do not claim anything the notes do not say. ## Source [xda-developers.com](https://www.xda-developers.com/openais-dots-gave-me-what-wanted-from-openclaw-without-the-hassle/) · published Oct 8, 2026 · checked Oct 13, 2026 Runs on [OpenAI dots](https://www.automaticcompany.co/platforms/openai-dots/). ## Want this running for you?
