2026-08-20-codex-0-149-0-is-npm-latest-and-restores-permission-profile-on-resume

Codex 0.149.0 published 2026-08-20T21:04:55Z as prerelease=false. npm dist-tag latest=0.149.0. Compare rust-v0.148.0...rust-v0.149.0 reports ahead_by=242. Release notes add codex agents, codex queue, and /cd /pwd /cwd, and state that resumed and forked threads restore their active permission profile instead of silently falling back to current defaults (#39153).

Channel: tagged-release. Half: both.

Operator consequence: default install is 0.149.0. Two stables in 48 hours. If you jumped from 0.147.0, regression-test permission profile on resume.
