Root Cause

The “Codex for Chrome” feature appears in What’s New, dated 2026-05-07, but I don’t see any Chrome plugin under Plugins. Because of that, I can’t install or connect the Codex Chrome extension.

I’m using the latest Codex app on Windows with ChatGPT Plus.

The Chrome plugin is completely missing from the Plugins page.
