What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

26.616.9593.0

What subscription do you have?

Plus

What platform is your computer?

Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.26200.0 x64

What issue are you seeing?

The Plugins tab in Codex does not render plugin icons/logos.

Plugin entries and plugin detail pages are visible, but icons are missing for OpenAI-suggested plugins. I verified that the remote plugin catalog contains logo_url and composer_icon_url values, and the full icon URLs open correctly in a browser. This looks like a Codex UI/rendering issue rather than missing metadata or a general network block.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Feedback ID: 019ef6af-73aa-74e0-a772-c325d47b8d79

What is the expected behavior?

Plugin icons/logos should render in the Plugins tab and in plugin detail views for OpenAI-suggested plugins.

Additional information

Diagnostics performed:

  • Codex app version from process path: OpenAI.Codex_26.616.9593.0_x64__2p2nqsd0c76g0
  • Codex release seen in logs: codex@26.616.71553
  • OS: Windows 10.0.26200 x64
  • Runtime seen in logs: Electron / Chromium 149.0.7827.115

Remote plugin catalog:

  • C:\Users\aleus\.codex\cache\remote_plugin_catalog\bbd453f78c2c627b.json
  • Catalog contains logo_url and composer_icon_url values for suggested plugins.

Network checks:

  • Full files.openai.com/content?... image URLs open correctly in browser.
  • Full chatgpt.com/backend-api/estuary/content?... image URLs open correctly when copied without truncation.
  • Opening only https://files.openai.com returns Bad Request, which is expected because the full /content?... URL is required.

Firewall checks:

  • Windows Firewall rules observed were codex_sandbox_*, which appear related to sandboxed command execution rather than the Codex UI.
  • No evidence that the icon domains are globally blocked.

Codex process:

  • Process command line includes:

--user-data-dir=C:\Users\aleus\AppData\Roaming\Codex\web\Codex

Conclusion:
The icon URLs are present and accessible, but the Plugins UI does not render them. This appears to be a Codex app UI/rendering issue rather than missing metadata or a general network block.
