ChromaPaw 0.4.8

This release improves Windows recovery after Codex Store updates and verifies that plugin installations contain the selected release's actual files.

Changes

  • Recover ordinary Codex startup when a Store update removes a previously pinned executable, using the verified official packaged-app identity.
  • Persist reviewed skin activation and project-sidebar repair for the next managed launch. Requests are consumed only after successful verification.
  • Synchronize the configured UI language, verify renderer readback, and retry bounded transient CDP timeouts.
  • Add reviewed signed Store adapters and preserve application-menu contrast and transparent pet overlays.
  • Compare installed files against the selected marketplace snapshot by SHA-256; reject missing modules and stale content even when version strings match.
  • Exclude local dependencies, caches, logs and private artifacts from package staging; update recovery guidance and cross-platform tests.

Compatibility

Windows skin activation remains experimental and is enabled only for exact reviewed executable identities. Historical live acceptance covers signed Store builds 26.901.1978.0, 26.901.2854.0 and 26.901.5003.0. Store build 26.903.9818.0, observed during release preparation, has no reviewed adapter and skin activation remains disabled for it. A newer Store build is not covered merely because an earlier version passed.

macOS supports portable package tooling and a read-only compatibility probe; live skin activation is not implemented. The Apple Silicon and Intel harness uses a simulated renderer, not the signed logged-in Codex application. Pet generation requires a compatible external hatch-pet workflow.

Plugin installation does not activate a skin or replace an existing reviewed runtime generation. Start a new Codex task to load updated plugin skills.

Validation and downloads

The release process runs the repository checks and installs the plugin from the exact annotated tag before publishing. Local verification ran 192 tests with 191 passing and one symlink test skipped due to host permissions. Required cross-platform CI, enhanced macOS harness checks and CodeQL gate the merge.

Downloads include ZIP and TAR.GZ source archives, an SPDX JSON software bill of materials, and SHA256SUMS.txt. Use the checksums to verify downloaded assets.
