Fix a broken DeepCodex UI feature on macOS IN PLACE, on the already-installed app, with no repo and no repackaging. Use when, after a Codex Desktop update, the DeepCodex (not official Codex) UI breaks: stuck in English / won't switch to Chinese, Appearance panel empty/broken, app/window name shows "Codex" instead of "DeepCodex", or the login/onboarding gate blocks use. DeepCodex makes these changes by string-patching Codex's minified app.asar; a Codex update changes that minified code so a patch anchor stops matching and the feature breaks. The fix is to re-anchor the patcher ALREADY installed inside DeepCodex.app and re-run it on the installed app — the agent does it directly. (Separately: a "First setup failed / built for macOS 16.0" dyld crash is NOT fixable in place — see the last section.) Core model/chat functionality is unaffected by UI breakage.
Fix a broken DeepCodex UI feature on Windows IN PLACE, on the already-installed app, with no repo and no repackaging. Use when, after a Codex Desktop update, the DeepCodex (not official Codex) taskbar/window icon is wrong or missing, the Settings menu won't open, the UI is stuck in English / won't switch to Chinese, the Appearance panel is empty/broken, or the window/app name shows "Codex" instead of "DeepCodex". DeepCodex makes these UI changes by string-patching Codex's minified app.asar; a Codex update changes that minified code so a patch anchor stops matching and the feature breaks. The fix is to re-anchor the patcher that is ALREADY installed on this machine and re-run it on the installed app — the agent does this directly, the user needs nothing but this running DeepCodex install plus an agent. Core model/chat functionality is unaffected by this.
