Highlights
WinkTerm v0.4.0 expands Codex integration, managed terminal automation, desktop update support, and terminal reliability. It also includes the Windows installer packaging introduced after v0.3.0.
Codex and AI setup
- Added ChatGPT Codex OAuth login and model support, including manual callback handling for remote deployments.
- Redesigned AI provider setup and isolated WinkTerm credentials from the system Codex login.
- Added real credential validation, token refresh, model checks, and Codex client-version reporting.
- Added Agent instructions and long-term memory editing through
agents.mdandmemory.md.
Terminal reliability and automation
- Added managed terminal runs and richer external-agent terminal APIs.
- Fixed
#command routing so plain shell commands cannot accidentally reuse earlier AI input or# winkterm:output. - Added final-message delivery for providers that do not emit LangChain stream events.
- Fixed stale WebSocket output callbacks across reconnects.
- Closed every PTY during backend reload/shutdown and blocked delayed spawn races that could leave orphaned PowerShell processes.
- Added unit, reconnect, reload-race, and real browser terminal regression coverage.
Frontend and operations
- Added global toast notifications and SSH soft-delete with undo.
- Added collapsible side panels and improved narrow-layout behavior.
- Improved settings guidance, update UI, and secret retention.
- Added MSI packaging, Docker lockfile fixes, and deployment pipeline corrections.
Verification
- Backend automated tests, frontend lint/build/typecheck, terminal API and WebSocket reconnect smoke tests, and browser E2E passed before release.
- Windows MSI passed WiX validation; internal ProductVersion is
0.4.0.
