OpenAI Codex CLI 0.166.0: keyboard transcript selection, GPT-6.1 Terra in Vertex AI and Bedrock catalogs, codex doctor network checks

OpenAI published the stable Codex CLI release rust-v0.166.0 on GitHub at 19:47 UTC on Oct 29. It adds keyboard-driven transcript selection by word, line and page with built-in search, adds GPT-6.1 Terra to the bundled, Vertex AI and Amazon Bedrock model catalogs, introduces codex queue --resume and codex doctor --network-only, and shows clearer safety-block explanations with selectable safer follow-up prompts in the TUI.

Key Takeaways

  • Model catalogs: GPT-6.1 Terra added to the bundled, Vertex AI and Amazon Bedrock catalogs (#57293)
  • Transcript: keyboard selection by word, line and page, integrated search and configurable shortcuts (#57221 to #57224)
  • New commands: codex queue --resume resumes unloaded threads after queueing a message; codex doctor --network-only checks config, connectivity and WebSocket
  • Safety UX: clearer explanations when a request is blocked, plus selectable safer follow-up prompts (#57363, #57365)
  • Fixes: approval and permission settings survive resume and fork, and reasoning-token accounting is preserved to avoid premature compaction

Cline v4.1.21 Released: Refreshes Catalog to 6,386 Models Across 209 Providers, Defaults to Claude Opus 5.5

Open-source autonomous coding agent Cline (@cline_dev) shipped v4.1.21. The update refreshes Cline's model directory to 6,386 models across 209 providers, switching the resolved default to Anthropic's new Claude Opus 5.5 for 11 major providers (including GitHub Copilot and Google Cloud Vertex AI). It also introduces the Japanese open-weight provider ai& and patches a critical parser vulnerability in js-yaml.

Cline v4.1.21 Released: Refreshes Catalog to 6,386 Models Across 209 Providers, Defaults to Claude Opus 5.5

Key Takeaways

  • Expands provider coverage to 209 endpoints and 6,386 distinct models, the widest catalog among open-source coding agents.
  • Automatically updates the resolved default model to Claude Opus 5.5 across 11 major providers without user re-configuration.
  • Integrates OpenAI-compatible provider ai& to expand low-latency open-weight model serving in the Asia-Pacific region.
  • Upgrades core parser dependencies to js-yaml 4.3.2 to eradicate security vulnerabilities in untrusted config parsing.
