Codex CLI 0.130.0 Adds `remote-control`, Richer Plugin Sharing Metadata, and Better App-Server Thread Paging
OpenAI shipped Codex CLI 0.130.0 in May 2026. The release adds a new `codex remote-control` command for starting a headless, remotely controllable app-server, improves app-server clients with paging options for large threads (unloaded/summary/full turn items), expands plugin sharing with link metadata and discoverability controls, adds Bedrock auth support for AWS console-login credentials from `aws login` profiles, and fixes several app-server/thread reliability issues.
Codex CLI 0.129.0 Adds Modal Vim Composer, Redesigned Resume/Fork Picker, and a `/hooks` Browser
OpenAI shipped Codex CLI 0.129.0 on May 7, 2026. The release brings modal Vim editing to the TUI composer via `/vim`, a redesigned resume/fork picker, a raw scrollback mode, workspace-aware `/diff`, a new `/hooks` browser with before/after compaction support, expanded plugin management with workspace sharing and share access controls, theme-aware status lines, and Codex Apps auth surfaced through Guardian. Plus a long bug-fix list across Linux/Windows sandboxes, MCP, and TUI input handling.
Codex CLI 0.128.0 Lands Persisted `/goal` Workflows: Ralph-Style Agents That Don't Stop Until Done
OpenAI shipped Codex CLI 0.128.0 on April 30, 2026 with a persisted `/goal` system that keeps a goal alive across turns and runs the agent until it is achieved. As of September 2026 the feature is stable and on by default (`features.goals`, no config change needed), Goal mode left experimental status on May 21, 2026, and the `/goal` command is documented with set, view, edit, pause, resume, and clear subcommands. The five goal PRs in the release were authored by Eric Traut.
