2026.9.1

Highlights

  • Gateway restart recovery: preserve admitted turns across repeated Gateway restarts so restart-safe runs continue through each checkpoint and deliver their final response. (#130491) Thanks @jalehman.
  • Gateway config-write reliability: keep committed config writes pending through watcher handoff so same-write reloads settle against the observed generation instead of failing during source transfer. (#131515)
  • Codex managed runtime: update the bundled Codex runtime to 0.150.1 across Linux, macOS, and Windows while retaining platform-specific package resolution and current compaction behavior. (#130685) Thanks @vincentkoc.
  • Linux installation reliability: provision the stable Node 24 LTS stream and constrain RPM installs to the configured NodeSource repository so Linux setup cannot select an incompatible prerelease. PR 130369. Thanks @RomneyDa and @vincentkoc.
  • Worker recovery: re-arm admission-deadline launches, terminalize dead-worker turns, and defer debris cleanup so interrupted delegated work settles visibly. (#130446)
  • Control UI file safety: preserve confirmed agent-file saves during overlapping reads and refreshes while keeping newer drafts intact. (#130468)
  • Model browsing reliability: keep model discovery available after automatic plugin activation instead of losing the selected provider catalog. (#130481)

Changes

  • Audit decisions: record generic tool-action decisions at their authoritative execution boundary for clearer operator diagnostics. (#130358) Thanks @joshavant.
  • Codex app-server compatibility: carry Codex 0.150.1 collaboration, status, and activity protocol additions through the managed bridge without weakening exact platform package checks. (#130685) Thanks @vincentkoc.
  • Control UI appearance: save appearance preferences per user profile so shared browsers no longer collapse everyone onto one visual setup. (#130340)
  • Model selection scopes: add configurable model-selection scopes while preserving the canonical provider and runtime policy path. (#127813) Thanks @Marvinthebored and @Peetiegonzalez.

Fixes

  • Gateway restart recovery: retain admitted restart-safe runs across cleanup and repeated restarts, preserving checkpoints and final delivery. (#130491) Thanks @jalehman.
  • Gateway config watcher handoff: preserve pending config writes until the watcher observes the committed generation, preventing config.patch from failing during same-write source handoff. Fixes #131405. (#131515)
  • Linux installer runtime selection: use stable Node 24 LTS provisioning and scope RPM installs to NodeSource so fresh Linux installs cannot select an incompatible prerelease. PR 130369. Thanks @RomneyDa.
  • Worker admission recovery: re-arm eligible launches after admission deadlines and terminalize dead-worker turns instead of leaving delegated work unresolved. (#130446)
  • Control UI agent files: keep confirmed saves and file metadata intact when older reads or list refreshes finish later. (#130468)
  • Model catalog activation: preserve model browsing after automatic provider-plugin activation. (#130481)
