[Release] openclaw/openclaw v2026.5.28-beta.2: openclaw 2026.5.28-beta.2

OpenClaw v2026.5.28-beta.2 delivers major stability and safety improvements across agent runtime recovery, channel delivery, mobile/chat surfaces, and provider coverage. Key enhancements include steadier subagent workspace separation, safer session identity handling across multiple channels (Matrix, Slack, Discord, Teams, etc.), broader mobile UI refresh, stricter input validation, expanded provider support (Claude Opus 4.8, Fal Krea, NVIDIA models), and faster CLI/auth failure detection with clearer recovery paths.

Key Points

• •Agent runtime recovery improved: subagents maintain cwd/workspace separation, hook context stays prompt-local, session locks release on timeout, stale restart continuations avoided, and shared runtime state preserved across app-server/helper failures
• •Channel delivery safety enhanced across Matrix, iMessage, Slack, Discord, WhatsApp, Telegram, and Teams with proper session identity threading, room-id case preservation, and untrusted service URL blocking
• •Mobile and chat surfaces refreshed: iOS Pro UI, Gateway chat transport, onboarding, Talk permissions, WebChat reconnect delivery, and session picker behavior now preserve state across reconnects
• •Input validation stricter: Browser tool timeouts, viewport indices, Gateway ports, cron retry handling, Discord component IDs, schema array refs, and Telegram callbacks reject malformed values earlier
• •Provider coverage expanded: Claude Opus 4.8, Fal Krea image schemas, NVIDIA featured models, MiniMax streaming music, encrypted PDF extraction, GitHub Copilot agent runtime, and Codex Supervisor plugin support
• •CLI/auth/doctor paths fail faster with clearer recovery: malformed numeric/version options rejected, workspace dotenv credentials ignored, OAuth requests bounded, legacy api_key profiles migrated, and restart guidance actionable
• •Plugin and Gateway hot paths optimized: reduced repeated work while preserving cache correctness for install records, config parsing, tool search, session stores, and browser tokens
• •Release/QA/E2E validation improved: bounded log/artifact/harness waits prevent hanging tests and false-greens across cross-OS environments
• •New features: ClawHub plugin display names with skill verification, iOS dev app with Pro Command/Chat/Agents tabs, GitHub Copilot agent runtime, Codex Supervisor plugin, policy comparison and conformance checks
• •Documentation expanded: Codex computer-use setup, paste-token stdin auth, macOS gateway sleep troubleshooting, native Codex hook relay recovery, container model auth, and CLI setup flow compatibility
