Follow-up to yesterday's covered 0.155.0 alpha: Rust-v0.155.0 was tagged stable on Sep 17. Changelog adds experimental /voice conversations with live transcripts, live reasoning summaries in the TUI status row, task hiding/archiving in the agents overview, Touch ID verification for MCP requests on Mac, configurable daemon update schedules, and Bedrock credential fetching from configured commands. Security items block Windows-process escapes from WSL sandboxes and protect shell snapshots from credential exposure.

Why it matters

Voice input and hardware-gated MCP approvals move Codex toward hands-free, higher-trust agentic operation; the sandbox fixes address actively probed escape paths.

Importance: 2/5

Stable release of a major coding-agent CLI with security hardening
