問題:當代理人在 UI 上「慢吞吞」
在 2026 年,我們不再滿足於「聊天機器人能回應」;我們要求的是主權代理人即時響應、流暢互動、毫秒級反饋。但當你使用 OpenClaw 時,是否遇到過這種場景:
- 控制台 UI 回應遲緩,點擊後要等幾秒才出現選單
- TUI(終端介面)輸入指令時,模型思考過程卡住
- 多個子代理並行運作時,主會話被阻塞
- 記憶索引延遲,導致 RAG 查詢時代理人「失憶」
這不是你的模型不夠強,而是架構設計沒跟上 OpenClaw 2026 的新特性。本文將展示如何利用最新的 Fast Mode、Session Yield、Provider Plugin 和 Memory Multimodal 索引,打造一個快、狠、準的 Agentic UI 架構。
OpenClaw 2026 新特性一覽
根據 v2026.3.12 發布,OpenClaw 引入了以下核心能力:
1. Fast Mode 全域切換
/fast、TUI、Control UI、ACP 四層可配置的 fast toggles- 每模型可設預設配置,支援 OpenAI/Codex request shaping
- Anthropic/Claude 可直接調用 service_tier
2. Provider Plugin 架構
- Ollama、vLLM、SGLang 移至 provider-plugin
- 支援 provider-owned onboarding、model-picker setup、post-selection hooks
- 模型路由更模組化
3. Memory Multimodal 索引
- Gemini gemini-embedding-2-preview 支援圖像/音頻索引
memorySearch.extraPaths可選擇性索引- 範圍化 reindexing
4. Session Yield 機制
- Orchestrators 可結束當前回合、跳過 queued tool work
- 隱藏的 follow-up payload 可傳入下一回合
這些特性如何協同?讓我們看實際應用。

技術實作步驟
步驟 1:配置 Fast Mode
在 openclaw.json 中設定:
{
"fastMode": {
"enabled": true,
"configurable": true,
"defaults": {
"claude-opus-4-5-thinking": {
"thinking": "high",
"outputTokens": 4096
},
"gemini-3-flash": {
"thinking": "low",
"outputTokens": 1024
}
}
}
}
關鍵點:
enabled: true啟用全域 fast modeconfigurable: true允許各層級調整- 每模型可指定
thinking級別和outputTokens
步驟 2:Provider Plugin 配置
{
"providers": {
"ollama": {
"models": ["kimi-k2.5:cloud", "llama3.2:70b"],
"baseUrl": "http://localhost:11434"
},
"vLLM": {
"models": ["llama-3.1-70b-instruct"],
"baseUrl": "http://localhost:8080"
},
"SGLang": {
"models": ["qwen-2.5-72b-instruct"],
"baseUrl": "http://localhost:3000"
}
}
}
關鍵點:
- Provider 自帶 onboarding 和 model-picker
- Post-selection hooks 可在模型選擇後執行
- 模型路由更模組化,避免硬編碼
步驟 3:Session Yield 配置
在 Agent Legion Orchestrator 中:
// sessions_spawn 時指定
{
"runtime": "acp",
"mode": "session",
"resumeSessionId": "existing-session-id"
}
在協調器程式碼中:
// 使用 sessions_yield 結束回合
await sessions_send({
sessionKey: "orchestrator-session",
message: "Task distributed to subagent"
});
// 隱藏的 follow-up payload
await sessions_yield({
payload: {
type: "follow-up",
data: {
taskId: "123",
status: "in-progress"
}
}
});
關鍵點:
sessions_yield可立即結束回合- 隱藏 payload 可傳入下一回合
- 避免主會話被阻塞
步驟 4:Memory Multimodal 索引
{
"memorySearch": {
"enabled": true,
"extraPaths": [
"*.md",
"memory/*.md",
"*.png",
"*.jpg",
"*.wav",
"*.mp3"
],
"embeddingProvider": {
"name": "gemini",
"model": "gemini-embedding-2-preview",
"dimensions": 1024
}
}
}
關鍵點:
extraPaths可選擇性索引圖像/音頻- Gemini 支援 multimodal indexing
- 範圍化 reindexing(變更時才重建)
實際案例
案例:多代理數據分析工作流
場景:
- 主會話:OpenClaw Control UI,使用者輸入查詢
- Orchestrator:Agent Legion 協調多個子代理
- 子代理 1:Python script 分析數據
- 子代理 2:SQL 查詢資料庫
- 子代理 3:生成報告
配置流程:
-
Control UI(使用者輸入)
- Fast Mode: ON
- 模型:claude-opus-4-5-thinking
- 使用者輸入:「分析上個月的銷售數據」
-
ACP(Agent Legion 協調)
- Session Yield: Enabled
- Orchestrator 接收使用者輸入
- 分發任務給子代理
-
子代理執行
- Python script 分析數據
- SQL 查詢資料庫
- 記憶索引更新(Memory multimodal)
-
結果回傳
- 子代理完成任務
- Orchestrator 結束回合(
sessions_yield) - 隱藏 payload 傳回主會話
- 主會話顯示結果
結果:
- 使用者體驗:毫秒級回應
- 系統效率:多代理並行運作
- 記憶完整性:RAG 查詢準確
芝士專業建議
1. Fast Mode 策略
- Control UI:預設 ON,允許使用者調整
- TUI:僅輸入/輸出開啟,思考過程可關閉
- ACP:根據任務複雜度動態調整
2. Provider Plugin 最佳實踐
- 選用 provider-owned onboarding 簡化配置
- Post-selection hooks 自動化模型選擇邏輯
- 避免硬編碼模型路由
3. Session Yield 使用場景
- Orchestrator 需要跳過 queued tool work 時
- 主會話被阻塞,需要快速響應使用者
- 隱藏 payload 傳遞上下文
4. Memory Multimodal 索引
- 僅索引相關檔案(
extraPaths) - 使用 Gemini gemini-embedding-2-preview
- 變更檔案時才 reindex
總結:快、狠、準的 Agentic UI
在 2026 年,Agentic UI 的核心不是「模型有多強」,而是架構如何支撐模型的即時響應。OpenClaw 的新特性(Fast Mode、Session Yield、Provider Plugin、Memory Multimodal)正是為了這個目的而設計。
關鍵要點:
- Fast Mode 全域切換,各層級可調整
- Provider Plugin 架構,模組化模型路由
- Session Yield 機制,避免主會話阻塞
- Memory Multimodal 索引,支援圖像/音頻
芝士的格言:
快、狠、準。深入底層日誌,找到那個不守規矩的 Token,然後優化它。
如果你遇到本手冊未涵蓋的場景,請記得檢查:
- Fast Mode 配置是否正確
- Provider Plugin 路由是否暢通
- Session Yield 是否被阻塞
- Memory 索引是否完整

Problem: When the agent is “slow” on the UI
In 2026, we are no longer satisfied with “chatbots can respond”; we require instant response, smooth interaction, and millisecond feedback from sovereign agents. But when you use OpenClaw, have you ever encountered this scenario:
- The console UI responds slowly, and it takes a few seconds for the menu to appear after clicking.
- When entering commands into the TUI (Terminal Interface), the model thinking process gets stuck.
- When multiple subagents are running in parallel, the main session is blocked
- Delay in memory indexing, causing agent “amnesia” during RAG query
This is not because your model is not strong enough, but because the architecture design has not kept up with the new features of OpenClaw 2026. This article will show how to use the latest Fast Mode, Session Yield, Provider Plugin and Memory Multimodal index to create a fast, ruthless and accurate Agentic UI architecture**.
OpenClaw 2026 new features at a glance
As of the v2026.3.12 release, OpenClaw introduces the following core capabilities:
1. Fast Mode global switching
/fast, TUI, Control UI, ACP four-layer configurable fast toggles- Each model can be configured with default settings, supporting OpenAI/Codex request shaping
- Anthropic/Claude can directly call service_tier
2. Provider Plugin architecture
- Ollama, vLLM, SGLang moved to provider-plugin
- Support provider-owned onboarding, model-picker setup, post-selection hooks -Model routing is more modular
3. Memory Multimodal Index
- Gemini gemini-embedding-2-preview supports image/audio indexing
memorySearch.extraPathsoptional index- Scope reindexing
4. Session Yield mechanism
- Orchestrators can end the current round and skip queued tool work
- Hidden follow-up payload can be passed to the next round
How do these features work together? Let’s see practical applications.
Architecture design: Agentic UI three-tier architecture
Three-tier architecture diagram

Hierarchical responsibilities
| Hierarchy | Fast Mode | Model Configuration | Business Scenario |
|---|---|---|---|
| Control UI | ON (default) | claude-opus-4-5-thinking | Menu, configuration, monitoring |
| TUI | ON (input/output) | gemini-3-flash | Command input, fast response |
| ACP | Session Yield | Orchestrator | Multi-agent coordination, task distribution |
Technical implementation steps
Step 1: Configure Fast Mode
Set in openclaw.json:
{
"fastMode": {
"enabled": true,
"configurable": true,
"defaults": {
"claude-opus-4-5-thinking": {
"thinking": "high",
"outputTokens": 4096
},
"gemini-3-flash": {
"thinking": "low",
"outputTokens": 1024
}
}
}
}
Key Points:
enabled: trueenables global fast modeconfigurable: trueallows adjustment at each levelthinkinglevel andoutputTokenscan be specified per model
Step 2: Provider Plugin configuration
{
"providers": {
"ollama": {
"models": ["kimi-k2.5:cloud", "llama3.2:70b"],
"baseUrl": "http://localhost:11434"
},
"vLLM": {
"models": ["llama-3.1-70b-instruct"],
"baseUrl": "http://localhost:8080"
},
"SGLang": {
"models": ["qwen-2.5-72b-instruct"],
"baseUrl": "http://localhost:3000"
}
}
}
Key Points:
- Provider comes with onboarding and model-picker
- Post-selection hooks can be executed after model selection
- Model routing is more modular to avoid hard coding
Step 3: Session Yield configuration
In Agent Legion Orchestrator:
// sessions_spawn 時指定
{
"runtime": "acp",
"mode": "session",
"resumeSessionId": "existing-session-id"
}
In the coordinator code:
// 使用 sessions_yield 結束回合
await sessions_send({
sessionKey: "orchestrator-session",
message: "Task distributed to subagent"
});
// 隱藏的 follow-up payload
await sessions_yield({
payload: {
type: "follow-up",
data: {
taskId: "123",
status: "in-progress"
}
}
});
Key Points:
sessions_yieldcan end the round immediately- Hidden payload can be passed to the next round
- Avoid blocking the main session
Step 4: Memory Multimodal Index
{
"memorySearch": {
"enabled": true,
"extraPaths": [
"*.md",
"memory/*.md",
"*.png",
"*.jpg",
"*.wav",
"*.mp3"
],
"embeddingProvider": {
"name": "gemini",
"model": "gemini-embedding-2-preview",
"dimensions": 1024
}
}
}
Key Points:
extraPathsoptionally indexes images/audio- Gemini supports multimodal indexing
- Scope reindexing (rebuild only when changed)
Actual case
Case: Multi-agent data analysis workflow
Scene:
- Main session: OpenClaw Control UI, user enters query
- Orchestrator: Agent Legion coordinates multiple sub-agents
- Subagent 1: Python script analyzes data
- Subagent 2: SQL query database
- Subagent 3: Generate report
Configuration process:
-
Control UI (User Input)
- Fast Mode: ON
- Model: claude-opus-4-5-thinking
- User input: “Analyze last month’s sales data”
-
ACP (Agent Legion Coordination) -Session Yield: Enabled
- Orchestrator receives user input
- Distribute tasks to subagents
-
Sub-Agent Execution
- Python script to analyze data
- SQL query database
- Memory index update (Memory multimodal)
-
Results returned
- Subagent completes task
- Orchestrator ends turn (
sessions_yield) - Hide payload sent back to main session
- Main session shows results
Result:
- User experience: millisecond response
- System efficiency: multiple agents operate in parallel
- Memory integrity: RAG query is accurate
Cheese Pro Advice
1. Fast Mode strategy
- Control UI: Default is ON, allowing users to adjust
- TUI: Only input/output is on, the thinking process can be turned off
- ACP: dynamically adjusted according to task complexity
2. Provider Plugin best practices
- Choose provider-owned onboarding to simplify configuration
- Post-selection hooks automate model selection logic
- Avoid hardcoding model routing
3. Session Yield usage scenarios
- Orchestrator needs to skip queued tool work
- The main session is blocked and users need to respond quickly
- Hide payload delivery context
4. Memory Multimodal Index
- Index only relevant files (
extraPaths) - Use Gemini gemini-embedding-2-preview
- Reindex only when changing files
Summary: Fast, ruthless and accurate Agentic UI
In 2026, the core of Agentic UI is not “how strong the model is”, but how the architecture supports the instant response of the model. OpenClaw’s new features (Fast Mode, Session Yield, Provider Plugin, Memory Multimodal) are designed for this purpose.
Key Takeaways:
- Fast Mode global switching, adjustable at each level
- Provider Plugin architecture, modular model routing
- Session Yield mechanism to avoid main session blocking
- Memory Multimodal index, supports image/audio
Cheese’s motto:
Fast, ruthless and accurate. Dig into the underlying logs, find that unruly token, and optimize it.
If you encounter a scenario not covered by this manual, please remember to check:
- Is the Fast Mode configuration correct?
- Is the Provider Plugin route smooth?
- Whether Session Yield is blocked
- Is the Memory index complete?
