openai/codex release: rust-v0.153.0
name: 0.153.0

## New Features
- Vim mode now supports undo with `u` and redo with `Ctrl+R`, preserving complete drafts including pasted content and attachments. ([#41941](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/41941), [#42140](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/42140))
- The plugin CLI can list, install, and remove plugins from remote marketplaces. ([#42150](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/42150))
- Set `tui.auto_recap = false` to disable automatic recaps while keeping manual `/recap` available. ([#42101](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/42101))
- TUI history shows complete patches, input sent to background terminals, and individual completed commands. ([#41893](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/41893), [#42107](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/42107))
- Plus and Team users receive an earlier warning when less than half of their allowance remains in an approximately five-hour usage window. ([#42142](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/42142))
## Bug Fixes
- TUI sessions reconnect after an external app-server connection drops, preserving drafts and transcripts while keeping uncertain or queued submissions paused for review. ([#41911](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/41911), [#41916](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/41916), [#41918](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/41918))
- Full Access skips Guardian reviews for confirmation-only actions. User approval mode skips background Guardian scoring and prewarming, while sensitive-action checks and requests for user input retain their existing handling. ([#42147](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/42147), [#42256](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/42256))
- Guardian review history survives compaction, restarts, and user-created forks while respecting rollback boundaries and isolating subagent history. ([#41879](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/41879), [#4
