2.0.1 — 2026-09-10

Preserve the running Windows interpreter during upgrades by updating its environment in place.
Honor an existing GH_TOKEN/GITHUB_TOKEN for authenticated release metadata requests in CI. Normal local use still requires no account.
Add real upgrade preflight against published artifacts.

Windows users on 2.0.0 should rerun the installer once to receive this fix. macOS/Linux users can use codex-ui upgrade.

First public release of Ryan / Ensomniac's desktop controller.

Promote the local 1.2.1 script into an MIT-licensed Python package and public repository.
Preserve macOS native control, the JSON schema and 39 original regression tests.
Separate portable CLI, models, parser, browser payloads, platform capabilities and lifecycle.
Add release upgrades, agent skill installation, package-manager bridges, examples and human documentation.
Replace maintainer-specific screenshot paths with user-relative configurable storage.
Make unhealthy doctor results return nonzero.
Fix Chrome page buttons that acknowledge AXPress without firing: click the exact semantic frame once.
Establish sole-code-owner, locally signed agent review and optional PR notifications.
Define Windows/Linux expansion with mandatory install and upgrade parity.

The command remains codex-ui. Desktop behavior remains macOS-only. Python internals are not a stable API in this release.
