Release Notes

New Features - TUI controls now support F13-F24 keybindings, paste in searchable menus, and a compact reasoning-only status/title item (25329, 25400, 25504). - Enterprise/admin flows now show monthly credit limits and can apply cloud-managed config bundles, including EDU workspaces (24812, 24617, 24619, 24620, 24622, 25963). - Remote-control clients can start pairing and list or revoke controller grants through app-server v2 RPCs (25675, 25785). - Plugin workflows gained machine-readable codex plugin list --json output and cached remote catalog suggestions (25330, 25457). - Hosted web and image tools are available in more code-mode flows, with standalone web searches able to run in parallel (25176, 25702, 25890, 25923). - Multi-agent v2 keeps runtime choice with each thread and exposes cleaner follow-up and metadata defaults for spawned agents (25266, 25636, 25720, 25721, 25722, 25841, 26114). Bug Fixes - Cancelling a submitted prompt before visible output now restores the draft, attachments, and collaboration mode for editing (25316). - Slash-command filtering and footer shortcut hints now reset or render according to the current UI state (25492, 25625). - Platform reliability improved for macOS app launches and Windows SQLite startup, thread resume, and sandbox setup refreshes (25485, 25490, 25509, 25949). - Plugin loading preserves app manifest order, deduplicates local/remote curated installs, and treats malformed skills fields as warnings (25491, 25681, 25717, 25782). - Permission requests and approvals now carry environment identity, and managed MITM proxying exports readable CA bundles to child commands (25850, 25858, 25862, 22668). - Local session history is safer for compressed rollouts, renamed titles, pathless side-chat reloads, and stack-heavy startup/config rebuilds (25087, 25624, 25661, 25814, 25844, 25847). Documentation - Added app-server docs and generated schema updates for monthly credit limits, remote-control RPCs, and environment-scoped permission approvals (24812, 25675, 25785, 25862). - Moved repo review rules and contributor conventions into AGENTS.md, including Rust test-module layout and Python 3 compatibility guidance (25682, 25690, 25738). Chores - Root formatting and Justfile workflows are more complete and Windows-aware (24983, 25165, 25683). - Rust CI and release workflows use the git CLI for Cargo fetches to avoid intermittent libgit2/submodule failures (25644, 25775). - Python SDK releases now publish runtime wheels from the SDK workflow and pin to a glibc-compatible runtime package (25906, 25907). - Bazel CI’s BuildBuddy wrapper was reintroduced with Windows-safe process handling and validation (25915). - Shared prompts, context fragments, and skills plumbing moved into dedicated crates/extension paths to reduce codex-core coupling (25151, 25953, 25959, 26106, 26122, 26167).
