Codex CLI 0.157.0-alpha.1

0.156.0-alpha.14→0.157.0-alpha.1·September 21, 2026 at 6:17 PM UTC

Minor alpha release (0.157.0-alpha.1) with agent message-board groundwork, a new exclude_slash_tmp config option, removal of the o1 model id, and TUI/runtime refinements.

Changelog

  • [new] Added an exclude_slash_tmp configuration key.
  • [new] Landed early agent message-board support: posts, threads, channels, subscriptions, search/read paths, and a posts_roots_created event.
  • [new] Extended agent-control tooling shapes (including close-agent, wait, and request-user-input argument types).
  • [changed] TUI turn handling and empty-state presentation were reworked (dedicated turn runtime; empty-state lighting updates).
  • [changed] Markdown rendering in the TUI now includes source-table handling.
  • [removed] Dropped the o1 model identifier from the built-in model list.

Under the hood

  • New agent_message_board subsystem and agent-control inspection/target modules to support collaborative post/thread flows and tighter control of agent targets.
  • Auth and account-login parameter paths were adjusted (including ChatGPT and Amazon Bedrock-related setup variants).
  • Added a SecretsRequest typed payload path for secrets-related requests.
  • Process-identity and related runtime status modeling were refined across platforms.
  • Dependency set now includes caseless; lockfiles refreshed for the 0.157.0-alpha.1 bump.
  • Internal session/thread and cloud-tasks environment flag names were corrected/renamed (CODEX_SESSION_IDT, CODEX_THREAD_IDT, CODEX_CLOUD_TASKS_FORCE_INTERNAL).

Upgrade notes

  • If you still pin or select o1 explicitly, switch to a supported model before upgrading.
  • Prefer the updated CODEX_SESSION_IDT / CODEX_THREAD_IDT / CODEX_CLOUD_TASKS_FORCE_INTERNAL names if you relied on the previous internal spellings.
