New Features

• Fast mode is now enabled by default, and the TUI header shows whether the session is running in Fast or Standard mode. (#13450, #13446)
• js_repl can now dynamically import local .js and .mjs files, making it easier to reuse workspace scripts from the REPL. (#13437)
• Codex now tells the model which plugins are enabled at session start, improving discovery of installed MCPs, apps, and skills. (#13433)
• App-server v2 now exposes MCP elicitation as a structured request/response flow instead of raw events, which simplifies client integrations. (#13425)
• Expanded image workflow support for clients, including client-side handling of image-generation events and model metadata for image-capable web search. (#13512, #13538)

Bug Fixes

• Resuming a thread now preserves its stored git context and keeps apps enabled, avoiding broken state after codex resume. (#13504, #13533)

Documentation

• Added sample skill documentation for artifact workflows, including slide deck and spreadsheet examples. (#13525)
