Additional information

Diagnostics:

• unified-computer-use@openai-bundled is installed and enabled, version 26.908.40401.
• computer_use is enabled and no managed requirements.toml, managed_config.toml, or MDM disablement was found.
• The expected bundled component Codex Computer Use.app is absent from both the ChatGPT application resources and ~/.codex/computer-use/.
• /Applications/ChatGPT.app/Contents/Resources/cua_node/lib/node_modules/@oai/sky/bin is empty.
• Updating from version 26.903.71938 and reinstalling the official Intel build did not restore the component.
• macOS Screen Recording and Accessibility permissions cannot be granted to Codex Computer Use because that helper application is not present.

Start by inspecting the Intel ChatGPT application resources and ~/.codex/computer-use/, especially the expected Codex Computer Use.app and /Applications/ChatGPT.app/Contents/Resources/cua_node/lib/node_modules/@oai/sky/bin. Compare the installed official Intel build with the reported missing bundled component. Done means the managed service spawns, the helper can receive macOS permissions, and Settings > Computer Use shows Any App.
