Research direction
Start by reading the attached writing-block.md files for the crash details and reproduction steps, then reproduce the reported behavior on Windows 11 with Codex App 26.901.1978.0 during Store/update and IAB activity. Done means the repeated Crashpad ptype=browser crash is diagnosed and no longer reproducible under those steps.
