Measured with the unmodified Codex binary on 10 Oct 2026:
- real context windows per model (NanoGPT list, local table, combo = its
smallest member, capped at the summarizer's window) so Codex compacts by
itself when switching to a smaller model; an overflow guard trims
oversized old parts and reports what still does not fit
- classic tools instead of code mode for external models: GLM 0/3 -> 3/3,
Qwen 0/3 -> 2/3 on simple tool tasks, Claude/cx/Gemini unchanged
- phase (commentary / final_answer) on external assistant messages
- an answer cut by the client is carried to the next turn once
- images stay for vision-capable targets
- summary brake stops tight loops, not frequent compaction
- permanent gateway errors and tool-less targets fail at once with a
readable message instead of five reconnects
- a lone "." (used to apply a model change in voice) is answered locally
- the bridge listens within seconds; the IDE waits 45 s for it
Release: AITURK IDE 1.0.0-beta.26.

Adds the IDE's models and combos to Codex's model list and keeps conversation
summaries readable across providers, so switching models in Codex no longer
drops the conversation. Standard-library Python, run on the agent venv.
