codex

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).
