September 29, 2026Sign in with ChatGPT

We're excited to be partnering with OpenAI on Sign in with ChatGPT.
You can now bring your ChatGPT plan to Conductor in a few clicks. Go to Settings → Agents → Codex and click Continue with ChatGPT to start using your Codex plan in Conductor.
Other big improvements:
- The PR view has a new layout. One card at the top shows the branch, review, checks, and merge status, with the description and activity below it.
- New workspaces get descriptive branch names based on what you're working on. To turn this off, go to Settings → Git → Automatically rename new branches.
- You can now steer Cursor chats while they run.
- Desktop tabs are available in every cloud workspace, with no experimental setting needed.
- Cloud workspaces show their number (like W-123) in the top bar, workspace links, the All Workspaces list, and the command palette.
Improvements
- In the PR view, open the Review row to add unresolved comments to chat, or the Checks row to re-run or fix failed checks.
- Steer Cursor chats while they're running, in local and cloud workspaces.
- Merging a PR from Conductor now only merges the code that's in your workspace. If the PR on GitHub has changed, the merge is blocked and you get a link to merge on GitHub instead.
- PR comments edited on GitHub show "edited" with the edit time. If you'd already sent them to the agent or hidden them, they reappear as new.
- In the PR view, checks and deployments waiting on an approval show a clock instead of looking pending.
- Deep links can include a
branchparameter to start a new workspace from an existing branch. - In cloud workspaces, detected ports show which process is listening, like
postgresornext dev. - Hover over a cloud workspace in the sidebar to see its repository.
- Right-click the Pinned section in the sidebar to create a new pinned workspace.
- Hover over file names in the Git panel to see their full paths.
- Repository selectors are sorted alphabetically, and become searchable when you have five or more repositories.
- The + menu in the composer highlights Add attachment and puts it closest to the button.
- In cloud organizations, loadout changes sync across your devices.
- In cloud organizations, the Recommended MCPs tab also lists MCPs you've already added, marked Installed.
- When you add a custom MCP server with OAuth, you can copy Conductor's OAuth callback URL to register it with the provider.
- The toast for an MCP server that needs re-authentication shows the server's logo and name.
- Right-click a settings tab to copy a web link that opens Conductor to that page.
- Codex chats routed through Vercel AI Gateway use its dedicated Codex endpoint.
- Cloud workspaces load and sync faster, file sync picks up workspace changes immediately, and images use less memory.
- Animated workspace status marks in the sidebar use less CPU.
Fixes
- Fixed high memory use that grew as you opened more chats.
- Fixed slow startup and high memory use in organizations with many archived cloud workspaces.

- Fixed Codex tasks stopping on temporary rate-limit and model capacity errors after work had started.
- Fixed Codex chats failing to start with a "failed to load configuration" error when your ChatGPT workspace restricts Codex's sandbox.
- Codex inline visualizations render in the chat instead of showing raw directive text.
- Codex model pickers no longer list audio, embedding, and legacy completion models when you use an API key, and the placeholder "Test Model" entries are gone from all model pickers.
- Fixed sent queued messages appearing earlier in the chat, and messages briefly returning to the queue during attachment uploads or while background agents run.
- Fixed the Reset chat dialog reappearing after you sent the next message.
- Fixed a stacked PR's diff still including changes from the PR below it after that PR merged.
- Fixed slow switching between stacked PRs and occasional stale diffs.
- Fixed opening a workspace's merged PR showing a blank title, description, and activity.
- Fixed deleted lines in the diff view not being selectable or copyable.
- Fixed files marked as Viewed in the diff viewer resetting after restarting Conductor.
- Fixed regenerated images, PDFs, and videos sometimes showing an older version.
- Fixed a crash that kept a workspace from opening again after you opened a file from a chat.

conductor://prompt, Linear, or async deep link in a chat message doing nothing. - Fixed copying a link or transcript from another chat tab's menu switching to that tab.
- Fixed new local workspaces showing a random string as their name.
- Fixed ⌘⇧N not focusing search when opening a new workspace.
- Fixed a project filter chosen in a local organization hiding every workspace in a cloud organization's sidebar.
- Fixed an empty gap building up in the status-grouped sidebar while archiving several workspaces.
- Fixed the left sidebar button shifting when the sidebar is collapsed.
- Fixed the settings sidebar scrollbar overlapping the selected item.
- Fixed switching between agents in Settings → Agents briefly showing the previous agent's settings.
- Fixed closing a zoomed image temporarily blocking clicks and scrolling.
- Fixed inline command terminals so they sit flush with the composer and show one close button.
