+name: path-types
+description: Choose Rust types for operating system paths across the Codex repository. Use when defining new path-bearing types or explicitly migrating existing ones.
+---
+
+# Path Types
+
+Apply this guidance when defining new types. Change existing code only when explicitly requested,
+and keep edits minimal and proportional. Treat these rules as the target state of an ongoing
+migration; if compliance is difficult, ask the user how to proceed.
+
+- In app-server protocol types, use `LegacyAppPathString` for backwards compatibility during the URI
+  migration. At the protocol boundary, convert it to `PathUri` and use `PathUri` internally. For
+  host-local logic, such as some config values, use `AbsolutePathBuf` or `PathBuf` instead.
+- In exec-server protocol types, use `PathUri`. Internally, use `PathUri` or `AbsolutePathBuf` as
+  appropriate.
+- In dependencies shared by both servers, use `PathUri` or separate APIs that decouple their use
+  cases.
+- Tool call arguments that the model is expected to generate should be deserialized as regular
+  `String`s with feature-specific path handling code.
+
+## Migration requirements
+
+Keep these requirements in mind while migrating code to conform with the above guidelines:
+
+* existing app-server clients keep sending and receiving legacy native-path strings
+* app-server can retain and manipulate foreign-platform path URIs
+* exec-server APIs use file:// URIs
+* local-only operation must not change model-visible text
+* model tool arguments may contain raw relative or absolute paths for any OS
+* path reasoning must work before the related environment has come online
+* URIs cannot explicitly encode the executor’s path convention or operating system
+* users must not configure the environment’s OS/path convention explicitly
+* URIs should not yet be stored in rollouts, databases, or other persistent storage
+* path conversion errors: fail-closed for security-relevant paths, fail-open for UI/diagnostics
+* prefer small focused methods on `PathUri` or `LegacyAppPathString` over local helpers
+
+It is OK if the conversion between paths and URIs is somewhat lossy as long as it will do the right
+thing for real users.
+
+Migrating to URIs should not add significant new failure modes. We will need to surface errors in
+some places that were previously infallible but it should be kept to a minimum.

 description: How to run tests using remote executor.
 ---
 
-Some codex integration tests support a running against a remote executor.
-This means that when CODEX_TEST_REMOTE_ENV environment variable is set they will attempt to start an executor process in a docker container CODEX_TEST_REMOTE_ENV points to and use it in tests.
+Some Codex integration tests select `local`, `docker`, or `wine-exec` through
+`CODEX_TEST_ENVIRONMENT`. The legacy `CODEX_TEST_REMOTE_ENV=<container>` still
+selects Docker; otherwise execution is local.
 
 Docker container is built and initialized via ./scripts/test-remote-env.sh
 
-Currently running remote tests is only supported on Linux, so you need to use a devbox to run them
+On x86-64 Linux, run Wine exec with
+`bazel test //codex-rs/core:core-all-wine-exec-test --test_output=errors`.
+Temporary blockers belong beside the test in `skip_if_wine_exec!` calls.
 
 You can list devboxes via `applied_devbox ls`, pick the one with `codex` in the name.
 Connect to devbox via `ssh <devbox_name>`.

+            - Preserve Markdown structure, code blocks, inline code, URLs, @mentions, issue

 - Avoid bool or ambiguous `Option` parameters that force callers to write hard-to-read code such as `foo(false)` or `bar(None)`. Prefer enums, named methods, newtypes, or other idiomatic Rust API shapes when they keep the callsite self-documenting.
 - When you cannot make that API change and still need a small positional-literal callsite in Rust, follow the `argument_comment_lint` convention:
   - Use an exact `/*param_name*/` comment before opaque literal arguments such as `None`, booleans, and numeric literals when passing them by position.
+  - A method's sole non-self argument is exempt when the method and parameter names match, such as `.enabled(false)` for `fn enabled(&self, enabled: bool)`.
   - Do not add these comments for string or char literals unless the comment adds real clarity; those literals are intentionally exempt from the lint.
   - The parameter name in the comment must exactly match the callee signature.
   - You can run `just argument-comment-lint` to run the lint check locally. This is powered by Bazel, so running it the first time can be slow if Bazel is not warmed up, though incremental invocations should take <15s. Most of the time, it is best to update the PR and let CI take responsibility for checking this (or run it asynchronously in the background after submitting the PR).

+    * `CARGO_BIN_EXE_pwsh` identifies the pinned PowerShell executable and
+      `CARGO_BIN_EXE_pwsh-runtime-marker` identifies a file whose parent is the

+    These are Bazel runfile locations. Resolve binaries with

+/**
+ * A UTF-8 path for preserving raw path compatibility at the app-server API
+ * boundary while Codex migrates to [`PathUri`].
+ *
+ * Supports storing arbitrary strings read from the API and converting to and
+ * from [`PathUri`] using an explicitly selected native path convention.
+ *
+ * When converting from [`PathUri`], "native" refers to the supplied
+ * [`PathConvention`], which may be foreign to the operating system running
+ * this process. The inner string is private so path-producing code must convert
+ * from [`AbsolutePathBuf`] or use [`Self::from_path_uri`] instead of bypassing
+ * the intended conversion boundary. Non-UTF-8 paths are converted to UTF-8
+ * lossily because this API value is serialized as a JSON string.
+ *
+ * Deserialization accepts any UTF-8 string without interpreting or validating
+ * it. That unrestricted construction path is intentionally available only to
+ * serde: Codex-internal code cannot construct this type directly from a raw
+ * `String` and is instead encouraged to convert through [`PathUri`] or
+ * [`AbsolutePathBuf`]. Relative path text remains valid until an operation
+ * such as [`Self::to_path_uri`] requires an absolute path.

+## Testing Plugin Analytics
+
+The `plugin-analytics-smoke` command exercises `plugin/installed`, plugin
+enable/disable config writes, and a structured plugin mention through one
+app-server connection. Analytics are captured to a local JSONL file and are
+not sent to the analytics backend. The model turn uses a loopback Responses
+API server.
+
+The selected plugin must already be installed and enabled remotely, and the
+active Codex profile must be authenticated. On a fresh local cache, the command
+retries ephemeral turns while the installed remote bundle finishes syncing.
+
+```bash
+# Build a debug Codex binary; analytics capture is unavailable in release builds.
+cargo build -p codex-cli --bin codex
+
+cargo run -p codex-app-server-test-client -- \
+  --codex-bin ./target/debug/codex \
+  plugin-analytics-smoke \
+  --plugin-id linear@openai-curated-remote
+```
+
+Use `--capture-file /tmp/plugin-analytics.jsonl` to select the output path.
+The command validates one `codex_plugin_disabled`, `codex_plugin_enabled`, and
+`codex_plugin_used` event with the expected local plugin identity and capability
+metadata. The enabled and disabled events come from successful writes to the
+temporary config; the command does not mutate the remote enabled state. It
+prints the events and leaves the JSONL file in place for inspection. It does not
+install or uninstall plugins and does not modify the profile's persistent
+config.
+
+### Testing remote install and uninstall analytics
+
+`plugin-analytics-mutation-smoke` is a manually invoked live smoke test. It
+contacts the configured remote plugin API and temporarily changes the active
+account's installed-plugin state. It is not run by `cargo test`, `just test`,
+or CI.
+
+Choose a remote plugin that is available to the active account and is not
+currently installed. The command refuses to run when the plugin is already
+installed, installs it, validates `codex_plugin_installed`, uninstalls it, and
+verifies that the original uninstalled state was restored. The current install
+event uses the backend ID as `plugin_id`. Uninstall is part of cleanup but is
+not yet an analytics assertion.
+
+`--remote-plugin-id` takes the backend ID, such as `plugins~Plugin_...`, not the
+local `<plugin>@<marketplace>` ID.
+
+```bash
+cargo run -p codex-app-server-test-client -- \
+  --codex-bin ./target/debug/codex \
+  plugin-analytics-mutation-smoke \
+  --remote-plugin-id <REMOTE_PLUGIN_ID> \
+  --confirm-account-mutation \
+  --capture-file /tmp/plugin-mutation-analytics.jsonl
+```
+
+Analytics use the normal queue, reduction, batching, and serialization path,
+but the debug capture destination suppresses analytics network delivery. The
+command prints one of these final states:
+
+- `PASS`: the install event validated and the plugin is uninstalled.
+- `FAIL-CLEAN`: validation failed, but the original uninstalled state was
+  restored.
+- `FAIL-LOCAL-CACHE`: the backend is uninstalled, but local cleanup reported
+  an error.
+- `FAIL-DIRTY`: cleanup failed and the plugin still appears installed.
+- `FAIL-UNKNOWN`: the command could not verify the final installed state.
+
+For a dirty or uncertain result, retry cleanup with:
+
+```bash
+cargo run -p codex-app-server-test-client -- \
+  --codex-bin ./target/debug/codex \
+  plugin-remote-uninstall \
+  --remote-plugin-id <REMOTE_PLUGIN_ID> \
+  --confirm-account-mutation
+```
+
+Cleanup does not require analytics capture or a debug Codex binary. When the
+smoke uses global `--config` overrides, its printed recovery command preserves
+them so cleanup targets the same backend and account.
+

 ## API Overview
 
-- `thread/start` — create a new thread; emits `thread/started` (including the current `thread.status`) and auto-subscribes you to turn/item events for that thread. When the request includes a `cwd` and the resolved sandbox is `workspace-write` or full access, app-server also marks that project as trusted in the user `config.toml`. Pass `sessionStartSource: "clear"` when starting a replacement thread after clearing the current session so `SessionStart` hooks receive `source: "clear"` instead of the default `"startup"`. Experimental `runtimeWorkspaceRoots` replaces the thread-scoped runtime workspace roots used to materialize `:workspace_roots`; paths must be absolute. For permissions, prefer experimental `permissions` profile selection by id; the legacy `sandbox` shorthand is still accepted but cannot be combined with `permissions`. Experimental `environments` selects the sticky execution environments for turns on the thread; omit it to use the server default, pass `[]` to disable environments, or pass explicit environment ids with per-environment `cwd`. Experimental `selectedCapabilityRoots` selects environment-owned plugin or standalone-skill roots. Skills found below those roots are listed and read through the owning environment; other plugin capabilities are not activated yet.

Stdio MCP servers declared by selected plugins are also started in that environment; HTTP MCP declarations remain inactive.
 - `thread/resume` — reopen an existing thread by id so subsequent `turn/start` calls append to it. Accepts the same permission override rules as `thread/start`.
 - `thread/fork` — fork an existing thread into a new thread id by copying the stored history; if the source thread is currently mid-turn, the fork records the same interruption marker as `turn/interrupt` instead of inheriting an unmarked partial turn suffix. The returned `thread.forkedFromId` points at the source thread when known. Accepts `ephemeral: true` for an in-memory temporary fork, emits `thread/started` (including the current `thread.status`), and auto-subscribes you to turn/item events for the new thread. Experimental clients can pass `excludeTurns: true` when they plan to page fork history via `thread/turns/list` instead of receiving the full turn array immediately. Accepts the same permission override rules as `thread/start`.
 - `thread/start`, `thread/resume`, and `thread/fork` responses include the legacy `sandbox` compatibility projection. Experimental clients can read `runtimeWorkspaceRoots` for the thread-scoped runtime roots and `activePermissionProfile` for the named or implicit built-in profile identity/provenance when known.
-- `thread/list` — page through stored rollouts; supports cursor-based pagination and optional `modelProviders`, `sourceKinds`, `archived`, `cwd`, and `searchTerm` filters. Each returned `thread` includes `status` (`ThreadStatus`), defaulting to `notLoaded` when the thread is not currently loaded.

By default, automatic Codex text follows the protocol's speakable output path. Pass `clientManagedHandoffs: true` to disable automatic Codex response delivery so only the client's explicit append calls produce handoffs. Pass `codexResponsesAsItems: true` to send automatic Codex responses as realtime conversation items instead, and optionally pass `codexResponseItemPrefix` to prepend experiment instructions to those items.

 Desktop hosts that provide upstream attestation should set `capabilities.requestAttestation` during `initialize` and handle the server-initiated `attestation/generate` request. App-server issues it just in time before ChatGPT Codex requests that forward `x-oai-attestation`; the client responds with `{ "token": "v1.<opaque>" }`, where `token` is an opaque client-owned value. When app-server receives a client response, it forwards a consistent outer envelope such as `{ "v": 1, "s": 0, "t": "v1.<opaque>" }`, where `t` contains the client token unchanged. If app-server attempts attestation but fails within its own boundary, it sends the same envelope shape with an app-server status code and without `t` (`1 = timeout`, `2 = request failed`, `3 = request canceled`, `4 = malformed response`). If no initialized client opted into attestation, app-server omits `x-oai-attestation` for that upstream request.

To forward an MCP tool image, pass an individual `ImageContent` block from `result.content`, for example `image(result.content[0])`. MCP image blocks may request detail with `_meta: { "codex/imageDetail": "original" }`. When provided, the second `detail` argument overrides any detail embedded in the first argument.

+- Missing/blocked: If a named skill isn't in the list or its source can't be read, say so briefly and continue with the best fallback.
 - How to use a skill (progressive disclosure):
-  1) After deciding to use a skill, the main agent must open and read its `SKILL.md` completely before taking task actions. If a read is truncated or paginated, continue until EOF.
-  2) When `SKILL.md` references relative paths (e.g., `scripts/foo.py`), resolve them relative to the skill directory listed above first, and only consider other paths if needed.
-  3) If `SKILL.md` points to extra folders such as `references/`, use its routing instructions to identify the files required for the task. The main agent must read each required instruction or reference file itself before acting on it. Do not delegate reading, summarizing, or interpreting skill instructions to a subagent. Subagents may still perform task work when the selected skill allows it.
-  4) If `scripts/` exist, prefer running or patching them instead of retyping large code blocks.
-  5) If `assets/` or templates exist, reuse them instead of recreating from scratch.
+  1) After deciding to use a skill, the main agent must read its `SKILL.md` completely before taking task actions. For a `file` entry, open the listed path. For an `environment resource`, use the filesystem of the owning environment. For an `orchestrator resource`, call `skills.list` with `{"authority":{"kind":"orchestrator"}}`, select the matching package, and pass its `main_resource` to `skills.read`. If a read is truncated or paginated, continue until EOF.
+  2) When `SKILL.md` references another resource, use the same access mechanism. Resolve relative paths against a filesystem-backed skill directory. For orchestrator skills, pass the exact referenced resource identifier with the same authority and package to `skills.read`; do not treat `skill://` identifiers as filesystem paths.
+  3) If `SKILL.md` points to extra folders such as `references/`, use its routing instructions to identify the resources required for the task. The main agent must read each required instruction or reference file itself before acting on it. Do not delegate reading, summarizing, or interpreting skill instructions to a subagent. Subagents may still perform task work when the selected skill allows it.
+  4) For filesystem-backed skills, prefer running or patching provided scripts instead of retyping large code blocks. For orchestrator skills, use `skills.read` and the available tools; do not invent a local path.
+  5) Reuse provided assets or templates through the same source access mechanism instead of recreating them.
 - Coordination and sequencing:
   - If multiple skills apply, choose the minimal set that covers the request and state the order you'll use them.
   - Announce which skill(s) you're using and why (one short line). If you skip an obvious skill, say why.

 This crate implements the business logic for Codex. It is designed to be used by the various Codex UIs written in Rust.
 
+## Wine-exec integration tests
+
+On x86-64 Linux, run the shared suite against the Windows exec server with
+`bazel test //codex-rs/core:core-all-wine-exec-test`. Temporary blockers use a

-### When to delegate vs. do the subtask yourself
-- First, quickly analyze the overall user task and form a succinct high-level plan. Identify which tasks are immediate blockers on the critical path, and which tasks are sidecar tasks that are needed but can run in parallel without blocking the next local step. As part of that plan, explicitly decide what immediate task you should do locally right now. Do this planning step before delegating to agents so you do not hand off the immediate blocking task to a submodel and then waste time waiting on it.
-- Use a subagent when a subtask is easy enough for it to handle and can run in parallel with your local work. Prefer delegating concrete, bounded sidecar tasks that materially advance the main task without blocking your immediate next local step.
-- Do not delegate urgent blocking work when your immediate next step depends on that result. If the very next action is blocked on that task, the main rollout should usually do it locally to keep the critical path moving.
-- Keep work local when the subtask is too difficult to delegate well and when it is tightly coupled, urgent, or likely to block your immediate next step.

+# Windows remote-environment test
+
+This Bazel-only `test_codex` integration test runs a Windows exec-server fixture
+under pinned Wine and exercises the normal model tool-call and remote-execution
+path.
+
+## Running the test
+
+```sh
+bazel test \
+  //codex-rs/core/tests/remote_env_windows:smoke-test \
+  --test_output=errors
+```
+
+No system Wine is required. Every process gets a fresh `WINEPREFIX` and isolated
+wineserver.
+
+## Current limitations
+
+- ConPTY/TTY behavior is not yet covered.
+- Wine loads shared objects and PE DLLs at runtime, so the host must still
+  provide the declared compatible glibc version.
+- The target is intentionally limited to x86-64 for simplicity. It can expand
+  if we find aarch64-specific behavior worth testing.

+# Escalation Requests
+
+Commands are run outside the sandbox after approval. The command string is split into independent command segments at shell control operators, including but not limited to:
+
+- Pipes: |
+- Logical operators: &&, ||
+- Command separators: ;
+- Subshell boundaries: (...), $()
+
+Each resulting segment is evaluated independently for sandbox restrictions and approval requirements.
+
+Example:
+
+git pull | tee output.txt
+
+This is treated as two command segments:
+
+["git", "pull"]
+
+["tee", "output.txt"]
+
+Commands that use more advanced shell features like redirection (>, >>, <), substitutions ($(...), ...), environment variables (FOO=bar), or wildcard patterns (*, ?) require care because each independent command segment is evaluated separately.
+
+## How to request escalation
+
+IMPORTANT: To request approval to execute a command that will require escalated privileges:
+
+- Provide the `sandbox_permissions` parameter with the value `"require_escalated"`
+- Include a concise `justification` parameter that explains why escalated privileges are needed.
+- Do not include a `prefix_rule` parameter.
+
+## When to request escalation
+
+While commands are running inside the sandbox, here are some scenarios that justify escalation:
+
+- When the sandbox is likely to block a command needed for the task, request escalation up front.
+- Request escalation for commands that need write access outside writable roots, such as tests that write to `/var`.
+- Request escalation for git operations that may write lock files, such as updating the index or refs.
+- Request escalation for commands that may need network access, including HTTP calls, package registries, internal services, data-service APIs, remote queries, data fetches, or live probes.
+- Request escalation for commands that may need remote authentication, cluster, cloud, or database access.
+- Request escalation for commands that may need process, cache, or other environment access outside the sandbox.
+- If a sandboxed attempt fails with sandboxing or likely network symptoms, including DNS, connection, authentication, retry, or service endpoint errors, rerun with `sandbox_permissions` set to `"require_escalated"` and include `justification`.
+- If a command may be hanging on sandbox-blocked access, stop after a short timeout and rerun with `require_escalated`.
+- Request escalation before potentially destructive actions, such as `rm` or `git reset`, that the user did not explicitly ask for.
+- When unsure, prefer requesting escalation unnecessarily over failing to request it when needed.
