Codex CLI 0.146.0-alpha.7

0.146.0-alpha.6→0.146.0-alpha.7·July 24, 2026 at 8:17 PM UTC

Alpha prerelease (0.146.0-alpha.7) focused on agent plugin manifests, MCP session prewarm/refresh, and thread-store / TUI turn-runtime groundwork.

Changelog

  • [new] Agent plugin manifest support, including integration with the agent-plugins marketplace endpoint.
  • [new] MCP session prewarm and refresh so servers can be prepared and updated more smoothly within a session.
  • [new] Rollout support as a first-class subsystem for conversation summary / history paths.
  • [new] Thread-store improvements for paginated fork and turn lookup in local history.
  • [new] TUI turn runtime handling for chat turns.
  • [changed] Sandbox and network-related environment knobs: CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED, CODEX_NETWORK_PR (replacing CODEX_NETWORK_PR_PROFILE), CODEX_SNAPSHOT_PROXY_OVERRIDE (replacing the prior override name), and CODEX_ESCALATE_SOCKET.
  • [changed] Collaboration and exec lifecycle signals, including collab_waiting_end and exec_command_begin.
  • [changed] Thread, tool, and input models refined (plugin source shapes, sandbox policy deserialization, web-search actions, mentions, and related thread-item payloads).
  • [removed] Obsolete typed payloads and events superseded by the above model updates (including the prior delete_to_line_end notification).

Under the hood

  • New core-plugins manifest parsing for agent plugins, aligned with marketplace plugin source objects (including git subdirectory packaging).
  • Session-layer MCP prewarm/refresh modules to reduce startup friction and keep server state current.
  • Local thread-store work for paginated forks and efficient turn history lookup; TUI chat widget gains a dedicated turn runtime path.
  • Data-model and enum cleanups across history cursors, thread metadata, skill migration, login/account params, and tool-call summaries—mostly renames and shape fixes rather than user-visible behavior changes.
  • Dependency/lockfile refresh for the alpha.7 version bump.
