Summary
The release adds ten numbered /presets slots, richer /model and /permissions arguments, terminal image previews and a default Amazon Bedrock setup wizard. It also masks credentials in supported remote shell operations and strengthens session recovery and sandbox checks.
Why it matters
Codex CLI is moving from an interactive coding assistant towards a configurable, enterprise-managed agent runtime with stronger controls for repeatable workflows and remote execution.
