Codex CLI 0.150.0-alpha.12

0.150.0-alpha.11→0.150.0-alpha.12·August 26, 2026 at 10:17 AM UTC

Alpha patch release: adds a /recap slash command, improves TUI editing (vim commands and hyperlinks), and tightens git URL handling and related internals.

Changelog

  • [new] Added the /recap slash command and supporting TUI recap flow so you can pull a session recap from the bottom pane.
  • [new] Textarea hyperlink support in the TUI for link-aware editing and display.
  • [changed] Expanded vim normal- and operator-mode keymaps and command handling in the TUI textarea.
  • [changed] Git URL handling now goes through a dedicated sanitization path (backed by gix-url) for safer, more consistent repo URL treatment.
  • [removed] Dropped the exclude_slash_tmp config key.
  • [removed] Removed the app-server realtime history path in favor of the current history/session plumbing.

Under the hood

  • Exec-server client refresh support for keeping long-lived exec-server clients in sync.
  • Skills subsystem telemetry hooks for better visibility into skills usage.
  • Protocol and event surface updates, including chunked client message results, exec_command_begin, and TUI suspend-failure signaling.
  • Broader data-model work around analytics/auto-review config shapes, thread usage and background-terminal responses, token usage profiles, turn steering, patch approval, and related API payloads.
  • JsonSchema and vim keymap structures extended to match the richer TUI and protocol behavior.
  • Dependency bump: gix-url for git URL parsing/sanitization.
  • Workspace version metadata set to 0.150.0-alpha.12.

Upgrade notes

  • If you still set exclude_slash_tmp in config, remove it; the key is no longer recognized.
  • Alpha builds may expose additional env/experimental knobs around permissions, connectors, exec-server stdin behavior, and MCP protocol versioning — only rely on documented settings unless you are intentionally testing internals.
