v0.4.0
Highlights
FableCodex v0.4.0 adds an evidence-backed findings gate to the existing Fable-style goal workflow. The new flow is meant for review-sensitive work where accepted review issues should not be lost before final completion.
What's New
- Added
codex_findings.py, a local findings ledger stored under.codex-fable5/. - Added a single user-facing terminal wrapper:
codex-fable5. - Added
codex-fable5 findings ...commands for adding, listing, resolving, rejecting, blocking, reopening, and gating findings. - Added
codex-fable5 goals ...as the terminal entrypoint for the existing goal ledger. - Kept
codex-findingsandcodex-goalsas advanced aliases.
Findings Gate Behavior
- Findings are evidence-backed review or verification issues, not brainstorming notes.
- New findings attach to the active goal automatically when a goal is in progress.
- A finding cannot be resolved without resolution evidence and verification evidence.
- Final goal checkpoints now fail while open or blocked findings remain.
codex-fable5 findings gateexits non-zero when blocking findings remain, so it can be used in manual release or review workflows.
User-Facing Commands
From a checkout:
export PATH="$PWD/plugins/codex-fable5/bin:$PATH"
codex-fable5 statusTrack a finding:
codex-fable5 findings add \
--title "Missing final verification" \
--evidence "Review found no command output proving the final state."
codex-fable5 findings next
codex-fable5 findings resolve \
--id F001 \
--evidence "Added final verification." \
--verify-evidence "Tests passed and final status was checked."
codex-fable5 findings gateIn Codex chat, users can simply ask:
Use $codex-fable5 to implement this and track findings before final completion.
When To Use It
Use findings tracking for multi-file work, migrations, security-sensitive changes, failed or uncertain verification, or review/sub-agent feedback with concrete evidence.
Do not use it for simple edits or routine factual answers.
