New Sidebar, Rebuilt Composer, Codex Checkpoints

Introducing our new, simplified sidebar. See GitHub status (merged, failing CI, conflicts, etc at a glance). Hover any workspace to see metadata and get easy access to next actions without leaving your current chat.

We've re-built the composer. @ is now instant, search result keywords are highlighted, and ⌘Z works consistently!

We've also added checkpointing to Codex sessions:

You can now /add-dir any local folder on your file system.

Improvements

You can now reset to a previous turn in Codex sessions
/add-dir now lets you link any folder on your machine, not just existing workspaces
Clicking an already-selected workspace in the sidebar now jumps to its oldest unread chat
Adjusted prompts to discourage an issue where the AI would omit key information from its final summary message
Improve command palette search UX
You can now permanently allow MCP tools, web search, and web fetch from the permission prompt
Added inline file pills when attaching files in the composer
User messages now show clickable links
Search results now highlight matched characters, making it easier to understand why each result was matched

Most error toasts now include a copy button
