What issue are you seeing?
Browser and Computer Use plugins became unavailable in the Codex desktop app.
In Settings > Browser, it shows:
应用内浏览器插件不可用
In Settings > Computer Use, it shows:
Computer Use 插件不可用
Both plugins were available yesterday, but today they are unavailable after opening Codex. Restarting Codex does not fix it.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
- Open Codex desktop app on Windows.
- Go to Settings > Browser.
- Browser shows “应用内浏览器插件不可用”.
- Go to Settings > Computer Use.
- Computer Use shows “Computer Use 插件不可用”.
- Restart Codex.
- The two plugins are still unavailable.
What is the expected behavior?
Browser and Computer Use should be available. They were working yesterday, but today they are both shown as unavailable.
Additional information
Local checks:
- The plugin files still exist locally:
C:\Users\lenovo\.codex\plugins\cache\openai-bundled\browser\26.601.21317
C:\Users\lenovo\.codex\plugins\cache\openai-bundled\computer-use\26.601.21317
- config.toml has both plugins enabled:
[plugins."browser@openai-bundled"]
enabled = true
[plugins."computer-use@openai-bundled"]
enabled = true
- The installed Codex app resources also contain browser and computer-use plugins.
- After restart, .codex-global-state.json keeps only:
electron-chrome-extension-sync-managed-plugin-ids: ["chrome@openai-bundled"]
- Browser and Computer Use were available yesterday, then became unavailable today without me changing settings.
