Codex update breaks control plugins and repair consumes user quota

What issue are you seeing?
This is a Codex update regression. The repair process should not consume my quota.
Codex breaks my computer-control plugin and browser-control plugin after every update. I have to ask Codex to repair them each time, and the repair process consumes my usage quota very quickly. This is not user code work; it is recovery from a Codex update regression. Please treat this as a product bug and either prevent plugin breakage after updates or provide a quota-free repair/recovery path.
Update Codex
Launch computer-control plugin / browser-control plugin
Plugin fails
Ask Codex to repair
Quota is consumed rapidly
What steps can reproduce the bug?
- Start with a working Codex installation where the computer-control plugin and browser-control plugin are functioning normally.
- Update Codex to the latest version.
- Restart Codex / reopen the IDE or terminal.
- Try to use the computer-control plugin.
- Try to use the browser-control plugin.
- Observe that both plugins fail to start or no longer work after the update.
- Ask Codex to repair or restore the broken plugins.
- Observe that the repair process consumes my usage quota quickly, even though the issue was caused by the Codex update.
What is the expected behavior?
