Codex CLI 0.145.0-alpha.13

0.145.0-alpha.12→0.145.0-alpha.13·July 15, 2026 at 8:16 AM UTC

Patch alpha release: thread fork goals, TUI safety buffering and chat replay, exec/environment connection work, and removal of the o1 model.

Changelog

  • [new] Thread forking can take a goal: the app-server path that handles fork requests now processes fork goals alongside the existing thread-fork parameters.
  • [new] The TUI adds safety buffering so sensitive or approval-gated output can be held before it hits the transcript.
  • [changed] Chat history display is reworked around replay (the previous transcript module is replaced), improving how past turns are reconstructed in the UI.
  • [new] Environment connection events and notifications surface when the runtime attaches to or starts talking to an environment.
  • [new] Exec command begin events are emitted when a managed command starts, giving clearer lifecycle signals for command runs.
  • [new] Collaboration turns can signal collab_waiting_end when a waiting phase finishes.
  • [changed] Thread-fork request parameters are expanded so forks can carry more context into the new thread.
  • [changed] Token budget configuration gains additional fields for finer-grained budget control.
  • [changed] Managed exec filesystem permissions and sandbox entries are refined (path kinds, restricted/managed profiles, network permissions) for clearer sandbox policy.
  • [changed] Marketplace load failures can carry structured error info instead of a bare failure.
  • [new] CODEX_MANAGED_BY_BUN7 marks runs managed by the Bun-based launcher/host.
  • [removed] The o1 model identifier is no longer offered.

Under the hood

  • New exec-server relay protobuf surface (exec_server.relay.v1) for process/relay communication.
  • Login/account response types grow cancel-login handling; ChatGPT login param shapes are cleaned up.
  • MCP elicitation and content variants are adjusted (including URL-based elicitation and value matchers).
  • Guardian approval review actions pick up network-access oriented cases; several older sub-agent activity item shapes give way to collab agent tool-call items.
  • Handshake rejection can report an incompatible-version case; assorted error/stream connection variants are refreshed.
  • Workspace lockfile and alpha version metadata advance to 0.145.0-alpha.13.

Upgrade notes

  • If you still pin or select o1, switch to a supported model before upgrading.
  • Hosts that wrap Codex under Bun can set CODEX_MANAGED_BY_BUN7 when they need the managed-by-Bun marker.
