Codex is more beautiful
Codex tool calls now show richer file, command, and search details. We also now render Codex subagents, and gpt-image-2 results.
Files to copy
We’ve added a new field in each repo’s settings for *files to copy. *Conductor will automatically copy these file paths in each new workspace. Learn more.

Managed settings
You can now add a ~/.conductor/settings.json file that manages certain settings for you. If you have a managed setting on your system, you cannot overwrite it unless you change the ~/.conductor/settings.json. For now, default agent, enterpriseDataPrivacy, and claudeExecutablePath are configurable. You can see the supported schema at http://conductor.build/schemas/settings.json. Learn more.
New train sounds!
Welcome to the NYC MTA and Paris Métro:
