Codex CLI 0.158.0-alpha.7

0.158.0-alpha.6→0.158.0-alpha.7·September 24, 2026 at 6:17 AM UTC

Alpha patch (0.158.0-alpha.6 → 0.158.0-alpha.7) with a new config option, session startup prewarm reorganization, and internal cleanup.

Changelog

  • [new] Added an exclude_slash_tmp configuration key.
  • [changed] Session startup prewarm lives under the session module (replacing the previous standalone layout).
  • [removed] Dropped the realtime history presentation path and related subsystem surface.
  • [changed] Trimmed unused TUI pieces around activity-chart palette handling and empty-state lighting animation.
  • [changed] Continued internal API/model churn (usage summaries, migrations, model list/hint payloads, user-input tool responses, thread queue/background-terminal shapes, and related error/event variants).

Under the hood

  • Startup prewarm sources were consolidated into session rather than a top-level session-startup module, keeping prewarm logic with the rest of session startup.
  • Realtime history presentation code was removed as that subsystem was pared back.
  • Minor TUI internal cleanup removed dedicated palette and lighting helpers that are no longer needed.
  • Picked up event-listener-strategy as a dependency.
  • Assorted typed payload and enum refactors (hooks, permissions snapshots, review targets, scheduled-task schedules, client message chunking, and connection/error reporting) to match the current protocol shapes.
