Verified· Oct 8, 2026Published Oct 8, 2026
OpenAI tagged Codex CLI rust-v0.162.0 on Oct 8, 2026 (16:56 UTC); the release page currently contains no changelog text, just the version number.
What happened
- OpenAI's openai/codex repository tagged rust-v0.162.0 on Oct 8, 2026 at 16:56 UTC (09:56 PDT), the first stable release after rust-v0.161.0 (released Oct 7).
- The release page currently contains no changelog text: its body shows only "Release 0.162.0", tagged by iceweasel-oai, with 2 attached assets.
- This continues the rapid daily cadence: 0.161.0 shipped just ~24 hours earlier with GPT-6.1 Sol as the default model, MCP login from a terminal session, voice-conversation audio device selection, and opt-in Daybreak controls.
Why it matters
- For Codex CLI users, the stable tag exists but there is no documented feature list yet — no reason to rush an upgrade based on changes that have not been published.
- Anyone tracking what changed should watch the release page; the changelog text may be added after the tag.
- Verified Oct 8, 2026.
