Codex SEO v1.9.6-codex.5

Codex SEO v1.9.6-codex.5 fixes the macOS/PowerShell bootstrap installer issue and publishes the macOS Python 3.14 bootstrap fix behind a new immutable tag.

• Bootstrap now returns structured JSON errors for platform failures before verification.
• PowerShell installer has a Python-backed fallback for large or deeply nested bootstrap payloads.
• Bootstrap subprocess logs are truncated inside JSON to keep parsing stable.
• Public install refs now point to v1.9.6-codex.5.

Verification:

• GitHub CI passed on main.
• GitHub security workflow passed on main.
• Local pytest suite passed: 56 tests.
• Bash syntax, PowerShell parse, and Python compile checks passed.
• Clean isolated bash install passed from committed code with core/full/visual readiness true.
• Clean isolated PowerShell install passed from committed code with core/full/visual readiness true.

Codex SEO v1.9.6-codex.3

Windows installer hotfix for Codex SEO.

What Changed

• Fixed install.ps1 on Windows PowerShell 5.1, where ConvertFrom-Json -Depth 100 is not supported and caused bootstrap parsing to fail.
• Added bootstrap JSON extraction so dependency-tool noise around the JSON payload does not break installer parsing.
• Added clearer installer diagnostics with the underlying PowerShell parser error and a short bootstrap output preview.
• Bumped installer defaults and docs to v1.9.6-codex.3.

Affected Error

Bootstrap script produced invalid JSON output.
At ...\install.ps1:240 char:9

If you saw that on Windows 11, install from this release.

Verification

• Local pytest suite passed: 48 tests.
• PowerShell parser check passed for install.ps1 and uninstall.ps1.
• PowerShell JSON extraction simulation passed.
• Shell syntax, compile, help, and contract checks passed.
• GitHub CI passed on main for commit 7ab35e9.
• GitHub security workflow passed on main for commit 7ab35e9.
• Release package SHA256: 1db765c98ffdedd57980018713e475824de8ec74b4a32ce395f8849729549962.
