Codex CLI 0.150.0-alpha.6

0.150.0-alpha.5→0.150.0-alpha.6·August 22, 2026 at 12:19 AM UTC

Pre-release 0.150.0-alpha.6 builds out browser/computer-use configuration, AWS/Bedrock account setup, and related app-server and core groundwork on top of 0.150.0-alpha.5.

Changelog

  • [changed] Browser-use and computer-use settings are modeled more fully, including origin policy and per-platform requirements (macOS/Windows), so those capabilities can be configured and enforced more precisely.
  • [changed] Account/login handling continues to expand toward Amazon Bedrock and related cloud setup flows (including cancel-login style account responses).
  • [new] Additional app-server and control-plane response shapes land for areas such as apps listing, skills listing, model listing, plugin reads, thread unarchive, and patch approval.
  • [changed] Hook and tool-trace wiring is adjusted (prompt-oriented hook handling and richer tool-call runtime tracing), replacing earlier variants in the same paths.
  • [removed] The CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED environment flag is no longer present.
  • [changed] Collaboration wait signaling is simplified (collab_waiting_end is dropped); TUI suspend-failure notification support is added.

Under the hood

  • New AWS auth discovery and Bedrock-oriented account setup paths support cloud account initialization and environment detection.
  • Core gains guardian review evidence context handling for richer review/audit trails in-session.
  • Config requirement surfaces grow (ConfigToml / ConfigRequirements and related TOML mirrors) to carry the broader browser-use, computer-use, and daemon-related settings.
  • Filesystem path matching picks up glob-pattern support via the new wildmatch dependency.
  • TUI internal thread-event handling is reworked (prior dedicated thread-events module removed) in favor of the updated event set.
  • Dependency locks and the alpha version tag are bumped to 0.150.0-alpha.6.

Upgrade notes

  • If you relied on CODEX_SANDBOX_NETWORK_DISABLED, switch to the current sandbox/network controls exposed through config and runtime settings—this env var is gone in alpha.6.
  • Browser-use and computer-use related config keys may need review if you already maintain custom TOML; field coverage and requirement checks are broader than in alpha.5.
  • This remains an alpha build; treat Bedrock/AWS setup and the newer config surfaces as still evolving.
