Codex bundles LibreOffice
OpenAI's Codex desktop app bundles 1.7GB of runtimes including full Python, Node.js, Poppler, git, and LibreOffice binaries.
Blogger Simon Willison found that the OpenAI Codex desktop app (since rebranded to ChatGPT) keeps about 1.7GB in a ~/.cache/codex-runtimes/codex-primary-runtime folder, including full Python and Node.js installations plus native binaries for Poppler, git, and the LibreOffice office suite. Bundled skills in the plugins directory instruct Codex on how to find and use these binaries. The observation highlights the heavyweight local runtime stack shipped with agentic coding tools.

Risky Bulletin: Ukraine's top prosecutor resigns amid scam call center scandal
Ukraine's top prosecutor Ruslan Kravchenko resigned after NABU arrested a deputy for taking bribes protecting scam call centers running fake investment platforms.
Ukraine's anti-corruption bureau NABU arrested Serhiy Kropyva, Deputy Head of International Cooperation at the Prosecutor General's Office, alleging officials took monthly protection fees from a network of 100-500 scam call centers luring victims into fake investment platforms, with bribes reportedly growing from $700,000 to $3.5 million per month. Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko resigned on Monday, calling it a political decision, while Kropyva was fired with bail set at 120 million hryvnias ($2.7 million) and over 100 call centers shut down in the past month. The newsletter also briefly covers a cyberattack crippling more than 80 Luxembourg medical practices via payment vendor BMS Engineering, ShinyHunters' claimed theft of 200,000 Florida DMV driver records, a cyberattack on the American Meteor Society, and school closures in Springfield, Massachusetts.
