What issue are you seeing?
After updating Codex, the computer-use plugin failed to initialize. The failure happened before any app automation action, during the plugin bootstrap.
The error was:
Package subpath './dist/project/cua/sky_js/src/targets/windows/internal/computer_use_client_base.js' is not defined by "exports" in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\OpenAI\Codex\runtimes\cua_node\a89897d3d9baa117\bin\node_modules\@oai\sky\package.json
The file actually exists at:
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\OpenAI\Codex\runtimes\cua_node\a89897d3d9baa117\bin\node_modules\@oai\sky\dist\project\cua\sky_js\src\targets\windows\internal\computer_use_client_base.js
But package.json only exported the package root:
"exports": {
".": "./dist/project/cua/sky_js/src/index.js"
}
Meanwhile, computer-use-client.mjs imports this internal file directly:
import { WindowsComputerUseClientBase } from "@oai/sky/dist/project/cua/sky_js/src/targets/windows/internal/computer_use_client_base.js";
That causes Node to reject the import because the subpath is not listed in exports.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
- Use Codex App on Windows.
- Have the bundled
computer-use plugin installed under:
C:\Users\<user>\.codex\plugins\cache\openai-bundled\computer-use
- Attempt to use Computer Use.
- The plugin bootstrap fails with:
Package subpath ... computer_use_client_base.js is not defined by "exports"
Observed local versions/paths:
computer-use plugin version before update: 26.611.61753
computer-use plugin version after update: 26.611.62324
cua_node runtime path: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\OpenAI\Codex\runtimes\cua_node\a89897d3d9baa117
@oai/sky version: 0.4.13
The issue remained relevant after the plugin updated to 26.611.62324, because the newer computer-use-client.mjs still imports the same internal @oai/sky path.
What is the expected behavior?
The computer-use plugin should initialize successfully without requiring users to patch files inside the local Codex runtime cache.
Either:
@oai/sky/package.json should export the internal path used by computer-use-client.mjs, orcomputer-use-client.mjs should avoid importing a non-exported package subpath, or- the bundled
computer-use plugin and cua_node/@oai/sky runtime should be versioned together so incompatible cache combinations cannot occur.
Additional information
I was able to work around the issue locally by adding this exact export to:
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\OpenAI\Codex\runtimes\cua_node\a89897d3d9baa117\bin\node_modules\@oai\sky\package.json
"./dist/project/cua/sky_js/src/targets/windows/internal/computer_use_client_base.js": "./dist/project/cua/sky_js/src/targets/windows/internal/computer_use_client_base.js"
After adding that export, computer-use initialized successfully and sky.list_apps() returned installed/running Windows apps.
This suggests the root cause is likely a packaging/export mismatch between the Codex App bundled computer-use plugin and the bundled @oai/sky runtime, rather than a Windows automation permission issue.
