READY TO POST:
openai codex just dropped rust-v0.149.0! includes a slick new `codex agents` dashboard and better TUI commands like `/cd` and `/pwd`.
devs using openai codex SDK, check it: v0.149.0 now lets you pass exact CLI config overrides and choose `max` or `ultra` reasoning effort. gotta love those granular controls.
