Added

PaperFlow Native Host v1.0.11

PaperFlow 1.0.11 replaces the Codex app-server chat path with direct, tool-free streaming through the OAuth credentials managed by the official Codex CLI. This isolates PaperFlow from user MCP servers, plugins, shell tools, and repository configuration.

The settings UI can switch between ChatGPT subscription and OpenAI-compatible API modes while preserving each mode's model selection.

Native Host packages are precompiled for Windows, macOS, and Linux and are currently unsigned. The Windows combined test package includes the fixed-ID extension and the Windows Native Host. Verify downloads with the accompanying SHA-256 files.

PaperFlow Native Host v1.0.10

Precompiled PaperFlow Native Host packages for Windows, macOS, and Linux. These packages are currently unsigned. Download only the archive for your operating system.
