release: rust-v0.160.0-cometix
New Features
- Browse older tasks in the agent command center with a keyboard-accessible “Show more” action. (openai#49106)
- Select transcript text and paste with middle-click in fullscreen mode on supported local Linux X11 terminals. (openai#49112)
- Start sessions outside a project with workspace defaults when policy permits, and restore saved permissions when resuming. (openai#49160)
- Added opt-in Guardian review capabilities to retrieve earlier user instructions and include context from agent handoffs. (openai#49036, openai#49057)
Bug Fixes
- Unsent queued messages now resume after reconnection once uncertain submissions are resolved, avoiding duplicate sends. (openai#49105)
- The terminal UI now preserves server provider, reasoning-summary, and verbosity settings and shows the correct sessions in resume and fork history. (openai#49144, openai#49161, openai#49171)
- Fixed Windows sandbox PowerShell fallbacks and long-path permission repairs, and suppressed unwanted console windows from background helpers. (openai#49019, openai#49058, openai#49098, openai#49164, openai#49386)
- Subagents now retain environments that are still starting and receive their configuration or preparation failure. (openai#49075)
- Prevented SQLite stalls during connection setup and logging, and surfaced initialization errors instead of masking them as timeouts. (openai#49032, openai#49102)
- Explicit provider model catalogs no longer include unsupported bundled models or reuse stale entries after refresh failures. (openai#49135)
Documentation
- Clarified how provider credentials use the configured storage backend and how
env_keyidentifies the API-key environment variable. (openai#49118)
Chores
- Reduced repeated plugin-loading work by caching parsed manifests and reusing HTTP connections for remote plugin requests. (openai#49099, openai#49100)
- Added background reclamation of unused log database space to reduce disk usage. (openai#49069)
