Codex Crash
Open 💬 2 comments Opened Jun 27, 2026 by nmwcharran-jedi
Codex desktop app crashes immediately after updating to version 26.623.42026 on macOS.
The crash occurs during plugin startup with:
(code=null, signal=SIGKILL)
The app repeatedly reports invalid bundled plugin manifests, including errors such as:
interface.defaultPrompt: maximum of 3 prompts is supportedprompt must be at most 128 characters
Affected plugin paths have included:
template-creatorngs-analysis
I have already tried:
- rebooting macOS
- clearing Codex runtime caches
- clearing temporary plugin caches
- moving aside
~/.codex/config.toml - disabling
template-creatorinconfig.toml - rebuilding the Codex plugin/runtime cache
The issue persists even after the configuration/cache reset. My local Xcode project is unaffected.
Please investigate whether build 26.623.42026 has a bundled-plugin or plugin-loader regression on macOS.
