v0.17.1

Fixed

• Fixed runtime launch so quitting the codexfast launch terminal process no longer sends terminal process-group signals to the launched Codex app.

Changed

• Reduced the generated CLI source to the runtime launcher, runtime patch engine, app-environment checks, command policy, and legacy watcher cleanup shim while preserving the single-file bin/codexfast output.

Removed

• Removed the legacy bundle patch flow, including internal status, apply, restore, archive rewrite, ASAR helper, Sparkle bridge, re-sign, and legacy file-patch self-test code.
• Removed legacy watcher install/uninstall code. The hidden repair command now only removes old watcher files for compatibility.

Documentation

• Removed the recommended label from the public runtime launch menu and README examples.
• Updated maintenance guidance for the runtime-only launcher, generated CLI boundary, TypeScript regression runner, and supported-version drift check.

v0.17.0

Added

• Added support for Codex.app 26.513.31313 (build 2867) after direct installed-bundle inspection confirmed the updated Settings Fast, /fast, composer Intelligence Speed menu, Plugins, and composer @ plugin mention target shapes.

Changed

• Runtime launch no longer terminates Codex after the patch session is lost following a successful startup; Codex keeps running, while later lazy-loaded chunks may require a full relaunch to be patched.
• Runtime launch now prints patched target labels before the foreground-session instructions.

Removed

• Removed macOS ScreenCapture permission reset logic; current public launch does not re-sign the app.
• Removed the browser-use native pipe peer-auth compatibility target from the current implementation. Users with old locally ad-hoc signed apps should reinstall official Codex.app to recover the OpenAI Developer ID signature.

v0.16.0

Added

• Added a browser-use native pipe peer-auth compatibility target that only allows missing-code-signing-identity and reports Browser-use native pipe peer auth independently in runtime launch output and internal target checks.

Changed

• Help, the interactive menu, and README docs now expose codexfast launch as the public runtime path and remove the legacy status, apply, restore, install-watcher, and uninstall-watcher entries.
• Internal legacy restore now prints the current-version official Codex.app download URL after a successful restore so recovered installs can choose whether to reinstall and recover the OpenAI Developer ID signature.

Fixed

• Fixed runtime launch interception for Codex.app 26.513.20950 by waiting for the initial renderer load to settle before enabling Fetch interception and reloading the page.
• Fixed the generated single-file runtime patch engine extraction so launch can apply the embedded patch rules instead of silently continuing intercepted responses.
• Kept runtime launch interception alive for the lifetime of the launched Codex process so lazy-loaded Settings Fast and Plugins page-content chunks can be patched after the initial window appears.
• Added runtime launch heartbeat and bounded CDP reconnects so dropped runtime patch sessions retry at most three times before reporting Runtime patch session lost.
• Matched both current app://-/assets/.js runtime URLs and legacy app://-/webview/assets/.js runtime URLs.
• Removed legacy auto-repair watcher files automatically during launch, and kept old watcher-triggered repair as a cleanup-only compatibility path.

v0.15.1

Fixed the 26.513.20950 composer @ plugin mention list getting stuck on the remote shared-with-me plugin catalog under API-key auth, while preserving local and already available plugin results.

v0.15.0

Added

• Added support for Codex.app 26.513.20950 build 2816 after direct installed-bundle inspection confirmed the updated Settings Fast, /fast, composer Intelligence Speed menu, and Plugins target shapes.
• Added a Sparkle public EdDSA key bridge for patched 26.506.31421 build 2620 installs so apply and watcher repair preserve the in-app update path to 26.513.20950 build 2816 after local ad-hoc re-signing.

v0.14.0

Added

• Added support for Codex.app 26.506.31421 (build 2620) after direct installed-bundle inspection and real app apply/status validation confirmed the updated asset names and Plugins sidebar gate shape.

Changed

• Changed new watcher installs to write a small codexfast@latest runner instead of copying the current CLI snapshot.
• Removed the watcher-only repair command from the public command reference.

v0.13.1

Changed

• Restore now removes the auto-repair watcher before modifying app.asar, preventing a watched restore from being immediately re-patched by repair.
• New auto-repair watcher installs now call repair directly; the legacy --quiet marker remains accepted for existing watcher plists and user scripts.
• Documented the non-interactive command reference for status, apply, repair, restore, install-watcher, and uninstall-watcher.

v0.13.0

Added

• Added support for Codex.app 26.506.21252 (build 2575) after direct installed-bundle inspection and real app apply/status validation confirmed the updated Settings Fast, /fast, composer Intelligence Speed menu, and Plugins target shapes.
• Added non-interactive status, apply, repair, restore, install-watcher, and uninstall-watcher commands.
• Added help and version commands that work before app-environment checks.
• Added an optional per-user macOS launchd watcher that monitors Codex.app app.asar and runs quiet repair after supported app updates.

Changed

• Made apply-style runs skip archive rewrite and re-sign when all targets are already patched, preventing watcher self-trigger loops.
• Made quiet repair skip unsupported Codex builds without notifications, dialogs, backups, unpacking, archive writes, or re-signing.

v0.12.0

Added

• Added support for Codex.app 26.429.61741 (build 2429) after direct installed-bundle inspection and real app apply/status validation confirmed it matches the current 26.429.30905 Settings Fast, /fast, composer Intelligence Speed menu, and Plugins target shapes.

v0.11.0

Added

• Added support for Codex.app 26.429.30905 (build 2345) after direct installed-bundle inspection and real app apply/status validation confirmed the current Settings Fast, /fast, composer Intelligence Speed menu, and Plugins targets.
