oh-my-codex v0.15.0

Summary

0.15.0 is a minor release candidate that prepares the plugin delivery and Codex App compatibility train, Visual Ralph, setup install-mode selection, native agent/model routing, hook/runtime hardening, Windows/tmux question reliability, CI hang protection, Rust compatibility fixes, and release collateral for the next release cut.

Release range note: v0.14.4 exists, but it is not an ancestor of the current dev release candidate. The verified reachable base for this candidate is v0.14.3; the 0.14.4 metadata/collateral history is retained as historical release context.

Highlights

• Plugin delivery and Codex App compatibility — ships the first-party plugins/oh-my-codex bundle, plugin descriptors, marketplace metadata, plugin mirror synchronization, and setup/install-mode coverage.
• Visual Ralph — adds the Visual Ralph workflow as a first-class skill with routing, docs, and regression coverage for frontend/UI iteration workflows.
• Setup/install mode hardening — setup can preserve project plugin mode, clarify next steps, keep managed hooks/runtime assets aligned, and clean plugin-mode drift safely.
• Native agent/model routing — native agent definitions, model table generation, and setup refresh tests align on the gpt-5.5 frontier, gpt-5.4-mini standard, and gpt-5.3-codex-spark fast-lane contract.
• Runtime reliability — Stop hook parseability, notification fallback watchers, derived watchers, stale tmux sockets, team/runtime guidance, and CI silence handling have targeted hardening.
• Windows/tmux and Rust compatibility — question rendering paths cover Windows/non-attached terminals, while the explore harness remains compatible with the supported Rust toolchain.

Upgrade notes

• No tag, npm publish, or GitHub release has been created by this release-prep change.
• Existing CLI users can continue with legacy skill delivery; setup now makes plugin-vs-legacy mode explicit and preserves persisted choices.
• Codex App users should prefer the shipped first-party plugin bundle once the release owner publishes v0.15.0.
• Existing model overrides remain respected; default generated guidance continues to use gpt-5.5 for frontier lanes, gpt-5.4-mini for standard lanes, and gpt-5.3-codex-spark for fast exploration.
