New Features
- Open the agent command center with
codex agents --no-daemon. The command center and session picker now mark unread results (#58238, #58239, #58263, #58264). - Switch between connected backends from the terminal session picker and keep your drafts when switching (#58280, #58457).
- Preview local image attachments while composing on supported terminals, and open viewed local images from clickable transcript paths (#58261, #58446).
- Find API key and cloud provider options under “Sign in another way.” Enable
gcp_setup_wizardto set up Google Cloud Vertex AI with Application Default Credentials or a credential file (#57857, #58427). - Opt into macOS or Windows system proxy settings from
/experimental(#58157). - Expand patch details directly in the transcript while an approval prompt is open (#58281).
Bug Fixes
- Saved chats stay visible after you switch model providers. If a chat can’t resume, you can read its transcript and prepare an editable prompt to continue in a new chat (#58202).
Ctrl+Lclears the terminal display while keeping earlier messages available throughCtrl+T(#58266).- Deleting text that exposes a leading
!keeps an ordinary draft in chat mode (#58412). - Network approval prompts close when their requests end. Concurrent requests to the same endpoint prompt one at a time (#58350, #58351).
- Long realtime V3 conversations save completed speech to chat history as the transcript grows (#58221).
- Automatic context compaction now accounts for retained output from failed responses and responses with missing token usage data (#58404).
Documentation
- The app-server README covers managed network constraints under
[permissions.network]andprompt-usercommand rules that require fresh human approval (#58045, #58182). - The
openai-docsskill recommends the documented replacement when migrating away from a deprecated model (#58134).
Chores
- DotSlash manifests now reference the Cargo packages shipped with the release (#58717, #58757).
- Linux musl builds use fewer allocator arenas to reduce idle memory after conversations unload (#58399).
