Release notes
New Features

- Added /cd, /pwd, and /cwd commands for managing the working directory in TUI sessions. (#38894)
- Added codex queue for sending messages to existing local or remote sessions. (#39092)
- Expanded Vim editing with character replacement and more change motions such as cw, c$, and cc. (#39661)
- codex doctor now diagnoses endpoint protection, network/proxy failures, desktop app state, and update connectivity. (#38827, #38918, #39060, #39074)
- SDK users can now pass exact CLI config overrides and select max or ultra reasoning effort. (#38817, #39662)
Bug Fixes
- Queued messages now wake idle sessions reliably, resolve duplicate session names more usefully, and preserve pasted or deferred command semantics. (#39034, #39385, #39604)
- Resumed and forked threads now restore their active permission profile instead of silently falling back to current defaults. (#39153)
- Fixed duplicate sub-agent activity and tightened TUI routing for sub-agent notifications and approvals. (#39049, #39088)
- Realtime WebRTC sideband connections now reconnect after unexpected transport loss without dropping pending output. (#39257)
- Inline TUI history now remains available in Windows Terminal scrollback. (#39619)
- Inactive TUI thread replay buffers are now bounded to prevent excessive retained streamed output. (#39081)
Documentation
- Clarified that external contributions should go through issues and design discussion rather than pull requests. (#39089)
- Documented DNS exfiltration risks and trust limitations for secure devcontainers. (#39283)
