[Bug]: Restoring SimpleDocumentStore from a dictionary shares data with the original
### Bug Description I found this while inspecting dictionary serialization, then reproduced it through the public storage APIs. `SimpleKVStore.__init__` and `to_dict()` copy only the outer dictionary, leaving the collection dictionaries and nested values shared. As a result,...
[Bug][KV Connector][Kimi-K3.1-Pro] Local hybrid hit can exceed draft-attention coverage
...cache lengths are deterministic test inputs; the serving incident did not record the failing per-group lengths. Upstream reproduction is CPU-only; the serving crash was observed in the deployment above. ## Expected behavior Reconcile when a cacheable attention group hits less...
[Bug][Prefix Cache][Kimi-K3.1-Pro] DSpark does not enable shared Mamba checkpoints
## Summary With `--enable-mamba-shared-prefix-checkpoint`, a no-drop DSpark drafter can leave the effective checkpoint flag false. `KVCacheManager` requires a non-empty EAGLE group set, while the planner marks those groups only for drafters needing EAGLE block drop....
[BUG] slugify custom separators strip valid input characters
## Description `slugify` treats the separator as characters to strip and as a regex replacement string, rather than as a literal delimiter. A separator containing letters can remove letters from the original input even when that input needs no normalization. ## Reproduction...
[BUG] Business Premium: 37% of weekly Codex quota consumed by a single Astra Ultra request, another 8% in one hour of Sol High/Xhigh
...intensive development sessions. I cannot determine whether this is expected behavior, an issue with the account's assigned entitlement, a usage-accounting regression, or delayed usage attribution. ### Additional information ## Environment - **Subscription:** ChatGPT Business...
[Windows CLI] Previously working Chrome access now fails with browser access host unavailable; Desktop still works
...machine, ask to list Chrome tabs. This works. 6. Retry `await cua.listBrowsers()` in the failing CLI conversation after the Desktop success. It still fails with the same error, reproduced on 2026-11-04 at approximately 02:38 UTC. The initial inventory also reported a missing...

...is not limited to the moment before a closing backtick arrives during streaming. - Workaround verified by the user's screenshots: insert an ASCII space before the opening backtick when it follows one of the tested Chinese punctuation marks. Extra spacing after the closing...
Regression: Windows Codex CLI browser access previously worked; now fails
...show successful Chrome DOM reads from standalone exec tasks using CLI 0.160.0. Current failing tasks use CLI 0.166.0-alpha.5.1. The standalone launch pattern predates those successful runs. The initial trigger and exact update introducing the failure are unknown. This is an...
[BUG] SpiderTool cannot use the website_url configured at construction
### Description The SpiderTool README and constructor document `website_url` as a fallback when configured at initialization. However, the input schema requires a URL for every call, and `_run` also has a required positional website_url argument. As a result, the configured...
[BUG] ScrapegraphScrapeTool overwrites the configured extraction prompt for dynamic URLs
### Description The tool README's Custom Prompt example configures `user_prompt` at construction and then supplies only `website_url` to `run()`. The dynamic input schema fills its own hard-coded prompt before `_run()`, so the API receives the generic extraction instruction...

...* CLI: `0.164.0` * Desktop app: `26.1021.3705.0` * Bundled plugins: `26.1021.31345` It stopped working on 28 October, after the desktop app auto-updated to `26.1023.6123.0` and bundled plugins updated to `26.1023.50603`. Running `@Browser list my open Brave tabs` from the...
Codex became 3–4 times slower after October 28 update
After updating Codex on October 28, 2026, I experienced an immediate and severe performance regression. On the exact same tasks as before the update, Codex now takes **3-4 times longer**. Even simple questions take an unusually long time to answer. It frequently appears stuck in...

bug(agents): remote conversation state crosses parent sessions and endpoints
### What happened? Remote-agent conversation identifiers can carry across independent parent sessions in one process. The default RemoteAgentInvocation stores a static map under agent name alone, so same-named agents at different endpoints also reuse contextId/taskId....
bug(tools): oversized single-line background logs return no output
### What happened? read_background_output silently loses a log consisting of a single oversized line. Write 70,000 ASCII characters followed by a newline (70,001 bytes total), register that process in the current session's history, then read its output. The actual tool returns...
bug(tools): delayed background output reads ignore cancellation
### What happened? ReadBackgroundOutputInvocation ignores its AbortSignal. Its delay_ms option uses an unconditional setTimeout promise, then continues with process lookup and file reads even after cancellation. Reproduction: invoke read_background_output with delay_ms=300 and...
bug(scripts): YAML preflight still depends on Unix tools and legacy encoding on Windows
...preserve filenames containing spaces and Unicode, read UTF-8 content, and return a failing exit code for malformed YAML. An empty file list must not invoke a stdin-reading linter. ### Client information Windows, Node.js 22.19.0, npm 10.9.3, Python 3.11, source checkout cd1b45c....

[BUG] A2A wildcard negotiation drops compatible MIME types after the first match
## Description A2A content negotiation silently drops supported response formats when the client uses a wildcard. For example, a client configured to accept `image/*` negotiates only `image/png` with an agent advertising both `image/png` and `image/jpeg`....
Speculative sampling accepts zero-probability candidates when the acceptance draw is zero
### System Info Recorded on Colab standard CPU, Linux x86_64, Python 3.13.16, PyTorch `2.11.0+cpu`, Transformers `5.21.0.dev0` at `1a55addd658aaa95b52871f5b72e91a6b91449b6`. No pretrained weights were downloaded. The helper was unchanged at main commit...
Python: Rejected system messages leave AgentChat permanently active
`AgentChat.add_chat_messages()` sets its activity signal before validating message roles. If it rejects a system message, it raises before entering the `try/finally` that clears the signal. After the caller catches this validation error, the same `AgentGroupChat` cannot accept a...
macOS app 26.1016.51333: new chats fail on first message with Cannot serialize value (couldn't stringify value)
...attachments or file references. 4. Send the first message. ## Actual behavior The chat fails to start with the error above. This reproduces both in a newly added project and in a new chat within an existing project. The error appears after sending the first message, rather than...
Pydantic task inputs with unset private attributes fail during resolution
### Bug summary Resolving a Pydantic model containing an uninitialized private attribute fails as soon as a public field is transformed. The model itself is valid: `PrivateAttr()` does not require a value. This prevents task input resolution even though the private attribute is...
Responses API: unrecognized input item type (e.g. Codex CLI's additional_tools) aborts the whole request instead of being skipped
...which surfaces to the Codex client as `HTTP 400: Cannot determine type of 'item'` - failing the request before the model ever sees it. Notably, the top-level `tools` array in the same endpoint already has a lenient fallback for unsupported tool types a few lines below...

[BUG] Tool validation converts nested Pydantic inputs to dictionaries
## Description Tool argument validation recursively serializes nested Pydantic models before invoking the callable. A function annotated with `Location` receives a `dict`, causing attribute access to fail. This affects both `CrewStructuredTool.invoke/ainvoke` and decorated...
[BUG] CrewJSONEncoder crashes on non-dictionary RootModel outputs
## Description `CrewJSONEncoder` assumes `BaseModel.model_dump()` returns a dictionary and unconditionally calls `.items()`. Pydantic `RootModel` can return a list, scalar, or `None`, causing an `AttributeError` instead of encoding valid structured data. This also breaks...
[Bug]: ChromaVectorStore rejects metadata-only node deletion
### Bug Description `ChromaVectorStore.delete_nodes(filters=...)` fails when `node_ids` is omitted. The adapter changes `None` to `[]`, then passes that empty list alongside the translated metadata filter. Chroma rejects the empty ID list before applying the filter. This also...
[BUG] Sync file-store APIs mask storage RuntimeError inside an async caller
### Description Calling a synchronous file-store API from an async function hides a storage `RuntimeError`. Instead of the original error, the caller receives `asyncio.run() cannot be called from a running event loop`. `_run_sync()` catches `RuntimeError` around both loop...
[BUG] sanitize_tool_name exceeds short max_length limits
## Description `sanitize_tool_name(name, max_length=...)` produces names longer than the requested limit when the limit is smaller than its nine-character hash suffix. Negative slice lengths preserve most of the original name before appending the suffix. ## Steps to reproduce /...
Recorder cannot save a session to a bare relative filename
### Bug `ChatCompletionClientRecorder.finalize()` fails when `session_file_path` is a bare relative filename, such as `session.json`. `os.path.dirname("session.json")` is empty, so the unconditional `os.makedirs("")` raises `FileNotFoundError`, wrapped as `ValueError`. Using...

...- Logging out and back in does not help. - File descriptor limit is `1048576`. - **Workaround:** `codex -c log_dir="$HOME/.codex/log"` works. - However, setting the exact same `log_dir` in `~/.codex/config.toml` (root level) does not resolve the issue. - Restarting the...
dot cannot read user-created Codex threads: “unsupported placement format version” / “unsupported placement region”
...- Account-level list_threads returned 30 IDs with no continuation cursor. The first two failing thread IDs were absent. The archived list was empty. This listing check occurred before the new test session was created. - That listing exposed IDs, not thread titles or project...

Windows Codex is broken after the update - even Get-Location fails. Found the cause in sandbox.log.
I've been troubleshooting Windows Codex for the past two days, and I think I've finally narrowed down what's going wrong.. After a recent update, Codex completely stopped executing local commands. Even the simplest PowerShell command fails:. Get-Location . Instead of running, it...
[MPS] eager MPS silently produces incorrect weights despite synchronization before inspection; an intermediate synchronization prevents this observed failure.
...codex noticed that: > **All MPS runs synchronize before final inspection, including the failing run.** The zeroed matrices are therefore observed after the queued GPU work has completed. Waiting at the end does not repair the corrupted result; this is not simply inspection of an...

[Bug]: Relative score fusion corrupts rankings when cached results share score wrappers
### Bug Description `QueryFusionRetriever` mutates `NodeWithScore.score` during relative and distance-based fusion. If a retriever reuses a cached wrapper for the same node in multiple query results, the later normalization reads a score already normalized for another result...
Code extension intermittently drops submitted messages after update.
After updating the Codex VS Code extension on October 1, 2026, pressing Enter frequently clears the composer, but the message does not appear in the conversation and Codex does not respond. This happens even when Codex is idle. Repeating the same message several times eventually...
VS Code Codex 26.928.31416: normal messages disappear, spin forever, or get stuck in steer-like pending state
...updated to version 26.928.31416 on 1 October 2026, the extension became intermittently unusable. I am not intentionally sending steering messages. During normal usage, roughly every few messages one of the following happens: - A normal message appears to enter a steer/pending...
[Bug]: MarkdownNodeParser treats more than six opening hashes as a heading

[Bug]: websearch_interception + use_chat_completions_api: streaming /v1/responses 500s — bridge returns non-async-iterable ResponsesAPIResponse
## What happened? Streaming `/v1/responses` requests that include a hosted `web_search` tool return HTTP 500 when the target deployment sets `use_chat_completions_api: true` (the chat-completions bridge path). The identical request with `"stream": false` returns 200. This is the...
[Bug]: FastEmbed sparse model options reach incorrect constructor parameters
