UM-Codex 0.1.0-alpha.2: the launcher window, the browser tool, and fixes

New

  • A launcher window replaces the terminal questions. The UM-Codex app or shortcut opens a small page on your computer:

    • your setups as cards, with Start, Edit, Duplicate and Delete;
    • folders chosen with your system's folder picker, each set to "Read only" or "Read & write";
    • switches for the internet, the browser tool and approvals;
    • a plain summary before Start;
    • running sessions, each with Stop;
    • a first-run checklist.

    um-codex in a terminal still works.

  • A browser tool inside the sandbox, offered when the internet is on. Codex can open websites in a fresh browser, with none of your logins, running in the container. It asks before actions like opening pages, clicking and typing; reading a page doesn't ask.

Fixed

  • "Failed to persist config … config.toml" at every launch. UM-Codex's settings now live in Codex's read-only system layer, and your own Codex preferences can be saved again.
  • Codex no longer switches models by itself. The setup's model is used, /model lists the Toolkit models Codex knows, and there's no upgrade prompt.
  • Sessions are locked to full access inside the sandbox, so /permissions can't choose a mode that breaks commands in the container.

Updating from alpha.1: run um-codex update. The first time you open UM-Codex afterwards, the Desktop app and shortcuts switch to the launcher window by themselves.

Coming next: "Open in: Codex app". The Codex desktop app works in the sandbox through UM-Codex's connection; it's being tested now (Mac first).
