Enable experimental /voice conversations in Codex CLI
Upgrade to Codex CLI rust-v0.155.0, run /experimental then /voice for live transcripts and mic controls, use TUI live reasoning summaries plus completion timestamps, and approve MCP requests with Touch ID on supported Macs.Why this loop
rust-v0.155.0 makes hands-free Codex turns available on supported builds via experimental /voice (live transcripts, microphone controls, mute shortcut) gated behind /experimental. The TUI now streams reasoning summaries in the status row and stamps completion times after successful turns, so you can follow long work without hunting the transcript. Local Mac TUI sessions can require Touch ID for MCP requests, which stops unattended tool calls. The agents overview now hides, archives, and deletes tasks, shows worktree ownership, and confirms deletion of clean managed worktrees—use that to stop leftover agent worktrees from piling up. Configure daemon update schedules and run codex app-server daemon update so saved threads and active goals recover after restarts. Bedrock users can supply an AWS credential command with cache, expiration refresh, and auth recovery. Switching accounts now invalidates remote-control sessions, cached WebSocket state, and the previous identity’s model catalogs, so re-auth after an identity change.
Proposed actions
- Upgrade Codex CLI to rust-v0.155.0, open the TUI, run
/experimental, then start/voiceand use the mute shortcut and microphone controls while live transcripts and recording indicators update. - During a turn, read streaming reasoning summaries in the TUI status row and the completion timestamp after success instead of scrolling the transcript to see whether the agent is still working.
- On a supported Mac in a local TUI session, complete Touch ID when Codex prompts for MCP user verification before allowing the MCP request.
- In the agents overview, hide or archive stale tasks, inspect worktree ownership details, and confirm deletion only for clean managed worktrees.
- Run
codex app-server daemon updateand set a daemon update schedule so saved threads and active goals recover after daemon restarts; if you use Amazon Bedrock, configure the AWS credentials command Codex should run for cache, expiration refresh, and auth recovery.
