Codex installs package brand assets without manifest references and expose no UI entrypoint. This change wires the icon and logo metadata and registers an embedded Distill MCP App for global sidebar and thread tabs.

  • Reuse the notes, Review and annotation UI through the MCP Apps SDK and the existing Rust API handlers. Bundle HTML, JavaScript, CSS and fonts into one offline resource.
  • Add mise run build:plugins:dev with a separate distill-dev marketplace, MCP server and skill. Pin the checkout's debug binary and keep dev config, index and vault under dist/dev.
  • Add regressions for packaged branding, entrypoint discovery, UI read/write calls, excluded server control routes and dev data isolation. Update package ledgers and the plugin/UI documentation.

Validation

  • mise run check passed. Two existing semantic tests remain ignored because they require a downloaded embedding model.
  • Installed and enabled the local Distill dev package in Codex. plugin/read resolved the icon and logo paths; the MCP inventory discovered the global/thread entrypoints and UI resource.
  • Rendered the installed package in an MCP SDK test host. Verified notes and Review navigation, annotation writes and cleanup, light/dark host themes and a 390px layout.

Rollout and remaining verification

Codex owns sidebar placement and Pin preferences. Native Pin controls were not visually verified because native Codex UI automation was denied by the tool's safety restriction.

The updated Codex manifest starts distill mcp --ui. Publish a matching CLI binary before distributing that manifest to users whose launcher downloads the existing release. Local dev installs use the rebuilt debug binary.
