## New Features

- Open the agent command center with `codex agents --no-daemon`. The command center and session picker now mark unread results (#58238, #58239, #58263, #58264).
- Switch between connected backends from the terminal session picker and keep your drafts when switching (#58280, #58457).
- Preview local image attachments while composing on supported terminals, and open viewed local images from clickable transcript paths (#58261, #58446).
- Find API key and cloud provider options under “Sign in another way.” Enable `gcp_setup_wizard` to set up Google Cloud Vertex AI with Application Default Credentials or a credential file (#57857, #58427).
- Opt into macOS or Windows system proxy settings from `/experimental` (#58157).
- Expand patch details directly in the transcript while an approval prompt is open (#58281).

- Long realtime V3 conversations save completed speech to chat history as the transcript grows (#58221).
- Automatic context compaction now accounts for retained output from failed responses and responses with missing token usage data (#58404).

- The `openai-docs` skill recommends the documented
