Description
Windows Computer Use plugin is repeatedly restored as version 26.611.62324 after clearing its cache and restarting Codex.
The plugin bootstrap consistently fails with:
Module not found:
@oai/sky/dist/project/cua/sky_js/src/targets/windows/internal/computer_use_client_base.js
Reproduction:
- Remove or rename:
C:\Users\K.codex\plugins\cache\openai-bundled\computer-use\26.611.62324 - Restart Codex.
- Codex downloads the same version again.
- Calling Computer Use fails with the same missing-module error.
This appears to be a version mismatch between the server-distributed Computer Use plugin and the @oai/sky runtime bundled with the current Windows Codex desktop app.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the bootstrap failure after removing the cache directory at C:\Users\K.codex\plugins\cache\openai-bundled\computer-use\26.611.62324, then inspect the server-distributed Computer Use plugin and the @oai/sky runtime bundled with the Windows Codex desktop app. Done means restarting Codex no longer restores an incompatible plugin and calling Computer Use succeeds without the missing-module error.
