## Why
Clients that create and negotiate realtime calls themselves need Codex to join
those calls without creating another call or overwriting the client-owned
session configuration.
## What changed
- Add the `existingCall` transport to `thread/realtime/start`, accepting a
client-provided `callId` and optional `realtimeSessionId`.
- Attach Codex over the call's sideband WebSocket without SDP negotiation or a
session update, and reconnect that sideband while preserving transcript
state.
- Default existing calls to realtime v1, support v1 and v3, and reject v2 or
options that would reconfigure the client-owned session.
- Encode call IDs as a single URL path segment for v3 sideband connections.
## Testing
Add protocol, app-server, core, reconnection, authentication-header, and URL
encoding coverage for existing-call attachments.

## What changed
- Read the optional `pdf_c2pa_reservation` flag from file creation responses.
- When a reservation is present, include the original creation payload as
`pdf_c2pa_create_request` in the upload finalization request.
- Keep sending an empty finalization payload when the flag is absent for
compatibility with older server responses.
## Testing
- Cover reserved hosted PDF uploads and the legacy empty-payload path with mock
server tests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 454a4b9d872d70766c2bbb6c01d6015f7127af2f
## What changed
- Remove the legacy `shell_command` handler and runtime, leaving `exec_command`
and `write_stdin` as the shell execution tools.
- Treat legacy `shell_command` model metadata as `unified_exec`, and normalize
legacy user opt-outs so they do not disable command execution. Managed feature
requirements and `shell_tool` can still disable it.
- Preserve shell approvals, sandboxing, zsh-fork support, and output truncation
through the unified execution path.
## Testing
- Cover legacy configuration and model-metadata compatibility.
- Exercise unified shell execution, approvals, truncation, and `apply_patch`
serialization across the app-server and core test suites.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5c2fd6164fc3519cdae4944cb9db276b8467311c
## What changed
- Reconnect frameless bidirectional WebRTC sideband sockets after unexpected transport loss with capped exponential backoff.
- Preserve pending text or handoff output and bounded transcript state across reconnects.
- Treat `404 Not Found` and `410 Gone` handshake responses as terminal session completion, and preserve HTTP status information from failed WebSocket handshakes.
- Bound Realtime delegation input and transcript fields while retaining the most relevant portion of each.
## Testing
- Add unit coverage for reconnect backoff, terminal status handling, transport error classification, transcript continuity and truncation, and pending outbound messages.
- Add an end-to-end WebRTC conversation test covering an unclean disconnect, reconnect, transcript reconciliation, outbound progress during sustained inbound traffic, and terminal session completion.
GitOrigin-RevId: 544fd7e542c3434d0bb42cfbcc7143604419a037
## What changed
- Recognize `misalignment_policy_violation` errors from response streams and HTTP 400 or 403 responses.
- Preserve the upstream message, use a fallback for blank messages, and treat the error as non-retryable.
- Expose `misalignmentPolicyViolation` through the app-server protocol and generated schemas so turns fail with a typed terminal error.
## Testing
- Cover streamed and HTTP policy violations, fallback messages, retry behavior, and app-server turn completion.
GitOrigin-RevId: fd3485bf0be7bfe3d51c078bbc36a081692fd57f
## Why
Remote exec-server registry requests need to refresh managed credentials before sending a request. Static auth-header resolution cannot perform the asynchronous token exchange required by workload identity.
## What changed
- Add asynchronous auth-header resolution to `AuthProvider`, with the existing static-header behavior as the default.
- Resolve fresh managed credentials for each remote environment registry request while preserving the expected account and workspace identity.
- Load the cloud configuration bundle during remote exec-server startup when workload identity is selected.
## Testing
- Update the managed-auth and environment-registry auth tests to exercise asynchronous header resolution.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5d60f1127467aaacdb5d1a8f3d92278bc4bf2e29
## What changed
- Expand the Guardian sampling pool from 8 to 16 WebSocket connections.
- When the pool is full, supersede the oldest request that has already produced a score before replacing an unfinished classification. Treat superseded classifications as a no-op in the extension.
- Stop response WebSocket work when its event consumer is dropped, including while waiting for the connection lock or draining a completed sample.
- Allow retries across both initially warmed connections for retryable stream failures.
## Testing
- Add a concurrent sampler test that fills the pool and verifies scored drains are replaced before an unfinished classification.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9e4df7b01516094726ff3e11878f8ca742d21b03
## What changed
- Set `parallel_tool_calls` for regular and remote compaction prompts without consulting model metadata.
- Remove `supports_parallel_tool_calls` from `ModelInfo`, the bundled model catalog, and related fixtures.
- Preserve the existing Responses Lite behavior that disables parallel tool calls at request construction.
GitOrigin-RevId: 49552bdf97e71fa57325abb49f8adc0c88f1401a
## What changed
- Extract `x-models-etag` from `codex.response.metadata` events and emit it as a `ModelsEtag` response event.
- Stop reading or reporting the model ETag from WebSocket upgrade headers.
## Testing
- Update the WebSocket response-stream test to deliver the ETag through a metadata event and verify that it is emitted.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9b9cff3d8a0a914549aca62d8d316483a9a47f69
## What changed
- Parse `node_repl_auto_review_required` and `node_repl_disabled` from model catalog entries and include their values in each turn's Responses API metadata.
- Treat both fields as reserved metadata so client-provided values cannot override the selected model's policy.
- Use the selected review model's catalog entry when building metadata for review turns.
## Testing
- Cover metadata propagation across model switches, review turns, Responses API requests, and MCP tool calls.
GitOrigin-RevId: c1f63426eeb8e559abff439fbc618716a4908aff
## What changed
- Include the connector ID, action name, and model in file creation requests for hosted app tool calls.
- Use the file size returned by upload finalization when available, while falling back to the local size for older server responses.
- Keep upload finalization requests empty for compatibility with older servers.
## Testing
- Cover hosted app upload metadata and legacy finalization responses.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1bc834736db4fe3515f8224965cde0e5d6955ca3
## What changed
- Set `store` to `false` for every Responses request, including requests sent
through Azure providers.
- Remove the provider-specific storage check and simplify request construction.
- Update the Azure request test to verify that storage is disabled while
prefixed item IDs remain unchanged.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1c71cb80880058cb26789112f03269b73f0645b9
## What changed
- Parse safety-buffering payloads from typed `response.metadata` SSE events.
- Preserve the existing top-level `safety_buffering` field as the authoritative value when it is present, including when it is null or malformed.
- Continue applying the header-provided fallback model when the metadata payload omits `retry_model`.
## Testing
- Add parser coverage for metadata fallback, top-level precedence, and unrelated metadata events.
- Exercise metadata-based safety-buffering delivery through the core SSE integration test.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7dadfd54be28f2f33c2283de92fd49da0557d98a
## Why
High-volume request and streamed-response payloads can overwhelm the SQLite log database and diagnostic ring buffer used for reports.
## What changed
- Limit HTTP transport, SSE, and WebSocket diagnostics to `DEBUG` in persistent log sinks while leaving unrelated trace diagnostics available.
- Log known unhandled response events and delta events at `TRACE`, and surface unexpected event kinds at `DEBUG` without including their payloads.
- Report structured parse-error metadata instead of logging an unparseable SSE payload.
## Testing
- Cover filtering for transport, SSE, WebSocket, and unrelated trace records in both report and SQLite log sinks.
- Cover unknown and unsupported delta response events.
GitOrigin-RevId: 6d9121e093ddadf6834da394df544d9c09d8aeb9
## What changed
- Classify HTTP connection failures separately from other network errors without exposing request URLs.
- For sampling requests, retry connection failures with exponential delays from 5 to 60 seconds and show a `Reconnecting... waiting for network` stream error.
- Preserve the normal stream retry budget while waiting for the provider to become reachable. Keep the existing bounded retry behavior for other retryable errors.
## Testing
- Verify connection errors are classified without leaking URL contents.
- Verify a turn recovers after its provider becomes reachable and still applies the configured retry limit to a subsequent incomplete stream.
GitOrigin-RevId: 646553290c865a1332abd30c4a64ed9266bbfc6f
## What changed
- Add `include_apps_usage_instructions` to model metadata, defaulting to true for compatibility with existing metadata.
- Emit generic Apps guidance only when apps are available and the selected model enables it.
- Enable the capability for interactive model presets while leaving `codex-auto-review` and local models opted out.
## Testing
- Verify that missing metadata defaults to enabled and an explicit opt-out survives serialization.
GitOrigin-RevId: 6a20573cddfd3b80083d2b4b015829b49e6cc283
## What changed
- Propagate the optional `modelSpecialty` field through the model catalog and
app-server `model/list` response.
- When a newly selected model has the `cyber` specialty, default an active TUI
thread to workspace-write permissions with on-request approval. Use auto
review when available, otherwise keep the user as reviewer, while respecting
configured permission requirements.
- Show a notice when auto review is applied and strengthen the full-access
warning for cyber models.
- Preserve explicitly selected permissions when only reasoning settings change.
## Testing
- Cover auto-review defaults, requirement-aware fallback behavior, permission
preservation across reasoning changes, and the new warning notice.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8f25b0082d3051d9ff91f7355921236d0f82f758
## What changed
- Add `include_plugin_usage_instructions` to model metadata, defaulting to false.
- Emit generic plugin guidance only when plugins are available and the selected model enables it.
- Enable the capability for interactive model presets while leaving `codex-auto-review` opted out.
GitOrigin-RevId: 67f5a97e978033f5f1d533956c0b9deeae610283
## What changed
- Remove `ModelInfo.base_instructions` as an in-memory instruction source and use `model_messages.instructions_template` consistently for bundled, remote, fallback, and overridden model metadata.
- Preserve compatibility by promoting legacy `base_instructions` values when reading model responses and caches, and by including rendered legacy instructions when serializing `ModelsResponse` for older clients.
- Treat templates without instruction variables as literal text and retain the other model-message fields when applying instruction overrides.
This completes the consolidation proposed in https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/31302.
## Testing
- Cover legacy response and cache migration, canonical-template precedence, fallback instructions, personality rendering, overrides, and model switching.
GitOrigin-RevId: 089d986ca5e30da67db2c77a1b6a046d2cff52dc
## What changed
- Parse `codex_rollout_budget_units` from completed Responses API usage into
`TokenUsage`.
- Keep the provider-only value out of serialized protocol, JSON schema, and
TypeScript representations.
## Testing
- Cover the value in unit and end-to-end SSE response parsing tests.
GitOrigin-RevId: a53d4202beb9c8985d25894cb10e7c01f20b2a44
## What changed
- Add the optional `delegationAckFiller` field to `thread/realtime/start`.
- Forward explicit `true` or `false` values to V3 Frameless Bidi session payloads as `delegation.ack_filler`; leave the field absent when unspecified so the Realtime API default is preserved.
- Document that V1 and V2 ignore this setting.
## Testing
- Cover both boolean values in Frameless Bidi serialization and verify the WebRTC V3 session creation payload.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9fe8efd14e42738c3e86e3e9a8af81d0f4521244
## What changed
- Use `https://api.openai.com/v1` for WebRTC sideband websocket joins instead of deriving the URL from the model provider.
- Keep `experimental_realtime_ws_base_url` as an explicit sideband override for local development and tests.
- Exclude provider query parameters when building sideband URLs.
## Testing
- Add coverage that a frameless sideband join uses `wss://api.openai.com/v1/live/rtc_test` even when the provider points at the ChatGPT backend.
- Update the sideband retry end-to-end test to inject its mock server URL through the new override.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5d3d2cd69905ba04143010ced36a22712825b563
## What changed
- Store a request-logging-disabled `RouteAwareClientPool` in session services and use it for file creation, blob upload, and finalization requests.
- Preserve the existing system-root fallback for transport-default proxy routes, and emit a warning event when that fallback is used.
- Remove the direct `reqwest` dependency from `codex-api` now that uploads use the shared HTTP abstraction.
## Testing
- Add coverage for completing multiple uploads through a shared client pool.
GitOrigin-RevId: 01842415cad2d349a6bd3869abb3332e8110ebce
## What changed
- Wrap `CodexErrorDetails` and an optional retry delay in `CodexErr`, allowing any mapped error to preserve server-provided retry timing.
- Generate the payload-free `CodexErrKind` classification alongside the error details and reuse it for analytics.
- Update error handling sites to inspect `CodexErr::details()` while preserving existing display, debug, protocol mapping, and retryability behavior.
## Testing
- Add coverage for legacy debug formatting, error-specific retryability, and retry-delay propagation through API error mapping.
GitOrigin-RevId: d3ab8a305f2a2ee21d0c0a8c8c388b06dda9c59a
## Why
Preparing Responses API requests rebuilt tool definitions as a generic JSON
tree, and incremental WebSocket requests cloned their full item prefix for
comparison.
## What changed
- Serialize tool definitions into shared raw JSON that can be embedded directly
in HTTP and WebSocket requests.
- Compare incremental request prefixes in place while still ignoring internal
message metadata.
## Testing
- Verify raw tool JSON matches the existing value encoding.
- Preserve the serialized WebSocket request payload.
GitOrigin-RevId: 66e2921792c332e8904954dafa597f6d39abcf29
## What changed
Treat `previous_response_not_found` websocket errors as retryable so Codex can
retry with the full request. Preserve the server-provided error message when
available, with a fallback message that explains the retry.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7fb6a1b4f396de561c491a16d793e2730b052f01
## Why
Building a Responses WebSocket request copied the model, instructions, input
history, tools, and other request settings into a second payload before
serialization.
## What changed
- Make `ResponseCreateWsRequest` borrow shared fields from
`ResponsesApiRequest`.
- Keep only WebSocket-specific fields owned, and allocate a separate input
vector only for incremental continuations.
- Restore response item IDs after preparing a full request so the request
retained for continuation matching keeps its original state.
## Testing
Update the serialization test to verify that the borrowed WebSocket request
produces the same wire payload as the Responses API request plus its
WebSocket-specific fields.
GitOrigin-RevId: b63d746b7f5164b5204ab95b057c914a4aeb71e1
## What changed
- Add an optional `initialItems` field to `thread/realtime/start` for seeding
realtime V3 session history with `user`, `developer`, and `assistant` text.
- Encode the items in Frameless Bidi session bootstrap payloads for websocket
and WebRTC transports while preserving existing payloads when the list is
omitted or empty.
- Reject non-empty initial items for V1 and V2, more than 128 items, any item
over 8,192 estimated tokens, or a combined total over 8,192 estimated tokens.
## Testing
- Cover protocol serialization, app-server forwarding, websocket and WebRTC
payloads, empty-list compatibility, version checks, and size limits.
GitOrigin-RevId: 09af367f9a07543e3f8d59b7fa5387f932dc5a6a
## What changed
- Add `codexResponseHandoffMode` to `thread/realtime/start` for V3 sessions, with `thinking` as the default and `commentary` and `bemTags` routing modes.
- Map BEM `analysis` and `commentary` output to the commentary channel and `final` output to the speakable channel, while preserving the original BEM envelope. Unrecognized output falls back to speakable.
- Mark explicit speech appends as speakable and stop adding the legacy `"Agent Final Message"` prefix to V3 handoffs. V1 and V2 continue to ignore the new setting.
## Testing
- Cover channel selection for every routing mode, streamed BEM header parsing, fallback behavior, explicit speech, and V1 compatibility.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1974578257488f2914b252c9c1990ba38831c96b
## What changed
- Parse `cache_write_tokens` from response input token details and carry it through token usage aggregation.
- Expose `cache_write_input_tokens` in protocol, app-server, exec, and TypeScript SDK usage events, defaulting it to zero for compatibility with older payloads.
- Report cache-write usage in analytics, metrics, traces, and rollout data alongside existing cache-read usage.
## Testing
- Add coverage for response parsing, usage event output, aggregation, analytics, metrics, and telemetry fields.
GitOrigin-RevId: 634e4fbe3086a8923c0ee13b622573e7d9d221bd
## What changed
- Add realtime conversation version `v3`, which preserves the V1 Codex Voice behavior while using Frameless Bidi `delegation.*` events.
- Translate audio, transcripts, handoffs, session context, and lifecycle events between the app server and the Frameless Bidi wire protocol.
- Support `v3` over WebSocket and WebRTC, including the Frameless `/live` endpoint, session configuration, headers, and default model selection.
- Update the app-server protocol schemas and documentation for the new version.
## Testing
- Add unit coverage for Frameless event parsing, outbound messages, context chunking, URL construction, and call creation.
- Add app-server end-to-end coverage for WebSocket delegation and WebRTC session startup.
GitOrigin-RevId: 79a3307bc209e1a54582ebd2febc07c909fca016
## Why
Sparse and out-of-order rate-limit updates can omit account metadata or let an
older full read overwrite a newer workspace hard stop. Credit availability also
does not always include a displayable balance.
## What changed
- Propagate the backend's `spendControlReached` state through rate-limit
snapshots and the app-server protocol, preserving it across sparse updates.
- Keep workspace hard-stop classifications for error routing and ignore stale
full-read results after a newer hard-stop notification.
- Base TUI warnings and model-switch prompts on credit availability and hard-stop
state, and show `Credits: Available` when a finite balance is hidden.
## Testing
Added coverage for spend-control mapping, snapshot merging, out-of-order reads,
workspace error routing, warning and prompt behavior, and credit status display.
GitOrigin-RevId: 18b09d493d5a620a7c079fb721ec50b38dd5b04c
## Why
Standalone web search can return structured result DTOs separately from its
model-facing text output. App-server clients need access to that data without
coupling Codex to every result type or field.
## What changed
- Preserve the optional `results` array from `/v1/alpha/search` as opaque JSON
through web-search completion events, thread history, and app-server
`webSearch` items.
- Keep responses from older endpoints compatible when `results` is absent, and
allow clients to ignore result types and fields they do not understand.
- Regenerate the protocol schemas and TypeScript definitions for the optional
field.
## Testing
- Cover responses with missing, empty, and forward-compatible result payloads.
- Verify standalone web-search results round-trip through app-server item
notifications and thread-item conversion.
GitOrigin-RevId: 739ef5694ece5733f7b8749ec41d6bfa3f33c8c5
## What changed
- Add a `ResponseItemId` type that generates item-specific prefixes with UUIDv7 suffixes and use it across response items.
- Keep deserialization permissive for legacy histories, but omit empty or unprefixed item IDs from HTTP and WebSocket requests.
- Export the new type in the generated TypeScript protocol schema.
## Testing
- Cover prefixed ID generation, legacy deserialization, prefix recognition, and outbound request filtering.
GitOrigin-RevId: 0209fe430c826d0ae88bc4648652c4ebf390c4a4
## Why
Blob upload failures previously surfaced the full signed upload URL and offered limited information for diagnosing transport and service errors.
## What changed
- Add a unique `x-ms-client-request-id` to each blob upload.
- Report transport failures with the upload host, elapsed time, error category, and client request ID, while stripping the signed URL from the underlying error.
- Report unsuccessful responses with Azure request and error IDs, and emit structured warning events with upload metadata and available Azure and Cloudflare identifiers.
## Testing
- Verify successful uploads include the client request ID header.
- Verify response and transport errors expose diagnostic fields without leaking signed URL parameters or response bodies.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9ae2cb2a9aacec4df237b3ee79a6467a6b9107e7
## What changed
- Add `supports_reasoning_summary_parameter` to model metadata, defaulting to
`true` for backward compatibility.
- Omit `reasoning.summary` and its summary-delivery stream option when the
selected model does not support the parameter.
- Apply the capability of the final selected model when a spawned agent uses a
different model.
## Testing
- Cover unsupported models in regular requests and spawned-agent model
overrides.
GitOrigin-RevId: 72b783799fc0685cef1501ef2dbf62d1308ceead
## What changed
- Emit `responsesapi.websocket_timing` payloads as opt-in trace events with request context, while excluding them from diagnostic uploads and persisted logs by default.
- Preserve fractional-millisecond TBT values in telemetry histograms and runtime summaries, rounding only when formatting the TUI label.
## Testing
- Cover timing-log filtering, fractional TBT collection and display, and existing whole-millisecond duration behavior.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5f0a1c60c237abed17cc8b2d569ca77fbbc6ec41
## What changed
- Build a reasoning payload for every Responses request and always include `reasoning.encrypted_content`.
- Remove `supports_reasoning_summaries` from model metadata and retire the `model_supports_reasoning_summaries` configuration override.
- Use configured or model-default reasoning effort without a capability gate, including for guardian reviews and tracing.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2c9f194a5d2d4d688a2235299e6358f82ab8e1ea
## Why
Codex Apps file parameters use a three-step upload flow: create a file
record, PUT bytes to a returned signed URL, and finalize the upload.
Each step still constructed a default `reqwest` client, so the flow
could bypass `features.respect_system_proxy` even after model API
requests honored it.
This stack entry makes the resolved client policy a required input to
the upload API and resolves each concrete destination independently.
## What changed
- Require `HttpClientFactory` in `upload_openai_file`.
- Build clients for the create, signed upload, and finalize URLs through
the shared API route policy.
- Pass the factory derived from the turn configuration at the Apps/MCP
call site.
- Return a destination-aware `ClientBuild` error when enabled route
selection cannot construct a client.
- Preserve the legacy logged fallback for the feature-off
`ReqwestDefault` policy.
## Review guide
1. `codex-api/src/files.rs` changes the upload API and centralizes
route-aware client construction.
2. The three request stages each supply their actual URL, including the
separately hosted signed blob URL.
3. `core/src/mcp_openai_file.rs` is the only production caller and
supplies the turn configuration factory.
## Validation
- `cargo check --tests -p codex-api -p codex-core`
- `just test -p codex-api files` (1 matching upload test passed; 135
tests skipped by filter)
- `just fix -p codex-api -p codex-core`
## Follow-up
Other direct HTTP clients remain separate migration slices.

## Why
Responses WebSockets are the normal lower-latency transport for
WebSocket-capable providers. They must not bypass an OS-selected proxy
when `features.respect_system_proxy` is enabled, but disabling
WebSockets whenever the feature is enabled would impose a substantial
performance penalty.
Merged PR #31622 introduced the reusable proxy-aware WebSocket
transport. This PR makes the Responses API its first consumer so the
existing fast path uses the same effective proxy and trust policy as
HTTP.
## What changed
- Register `codex-websocket-client` as a workspace dependency and use it
from `codex-api`.
- Feed the shared crate’s route-independent `WebSocketConnection` into
the existing Responses message pump.
- Require a configured `HttpClientFactory` for normal Responses
WebSocket connections and the CLI doctor probe, so neither path can open
a connection without consulting the effective proxy policy.
- Pass the session factory from `core` and the effective configuration
factory from `doctor`.
- Add an end-to-end Responses test that enables `RespectSystemProxy`,
asserts the resolved policy, completes a turn over WebSocket, and
verifies the connection and request counts.
- Keep the existing Responses protocol handling, ping/pong pump, and
session-scoped HTTP fallback unchanged.
The DNS, proxy, TLS, custom-CA, and Happy Eyeballs implementation and
its transport tests live in merged PR #31622. This PR deliberately
contains only the Responses integration and does not duplicate that
transport code.
## Review guide
1. `codex-rs/codex-api/src/endpoint/responses_websocket.rs` constructs
the shared connector and adapts its uniform stream to the existing pump.
2. `codex-rs/core/src/client.rs` supplies the session-scoped factory for
production Responses connections.
3. `codex-rs/cli/src/doctor.rs` supplies the effective configuration
factory to the handshake probe.
4. `codex-rs/core/tests/suite/client_websockets.rs` covers the
enabled-feature path end to end.
## Test plan
- `cargo check --tests -p codex-api -p codex-core -p codex-cli`
- `just test -p codex-api`
- `just test -p codex-core
responses_websocket_streams_with_system_proxy_feature`
- `cargo shear`
- `just bazel-lock-check`

## Summary
- Treat streamed Responses `bio_policy` failures as terminal invalid
requests instead of retryable stream errors.
- Recognize the new biology policy code and message in the TUI while
preserving the legacy `invalid_prompt` contract.
- Keep the existing dedicated biology safety notice and add
regression/snapshot coverage for all supported error shapes.
## Why
[openai/openai#1068559](https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/1068559)
gates a Responses API contract change from `invalid_prompt` and the
legacy message to `bio_policy` and new biology copy.
Without this compatibility change, streamed blocks are retried as
transient failures and the OSS TUI falls back to a generic/raw error
instead of the dedicated safety notice.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-api` — 137 passed
- `just test -p codex-tui
app_server_safety_access_errors_render_dedicated_notice` — passed
- `just fix -p codex-api`
- `just fix -p codex-tui`
- `just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-tui` — 2,957 passed; two reproducible failures
remain in untouched Guardian feature-flag persistence tests:
-
`update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_review_policy_and_restores_default`
-
`update_feature_flags_disabling_guardian_clears_manual_review_policy_without_history`
## Summary
When enabled for the OpenAI provider, Codex sends
`stream_options.reasoning_summary_delivery = "sequential_cutoff"` on
HTTP and
WebSocket requests, including prewarm, and renders completed summary
sections
from `reasoning_summary_text.done`. Flag-off and non-OpenAI behavior is
unchanged.
## Expected rollout
```text
reasoning 0 added
summary 0 done

Depends on
[openai/openai#1096660](https://github.com/openai/openai/pull/1096660).
## Why
#31323 introduces `codex-http-client` and leaves compatibility
re-exports in `codex-client`. Low-level HTTP consumers should depend on
the crate that now owns those APIs rather than continuing through the
transitional compatibility layer.
This stacked follow-up makes that ownership explicit and moves the
repository toward enforcing the abstraction without mixing call-site
churn into the extraction itself.
## What changed
- Switched `codex-backend-client`, `codex-cloud-tasks`,
`codex-exec-server`, `codex-login`, and `codex-model-provider` from
`codex-client` to `codex-http-client` where they only use low-level HTTP
APIs.
- Added the direct dependency to `codex-api` for its custom-CA request
and websocket paths while retaining `codex-client` for higher-level
retry and transport policy.
- Updated imports and normalized login's internal client type name from
`CodexHttpClient` to `HttpClient`, while preserving its existing
`CodexRequestBuilder` re-export.
- Updated `Cargo.lock` to reflect the new direct dependency edges.
## Review guide
This PR is intentionally mechanical: 20 files and 92 changed lines, with
no runtime logic changes. The largest diff is
`codex-rs/login/src/auth/default_client.rs`, where the only
semantic-looking changes are type and import renames. The remaining
source changes replace `codex_client` import paths with
`codex_http_client`; the manifest and lockfile changes mirror those
imports.
## Test plan
- Compile-checked `codex-api`, `codex-backend-client`,
`codex-cloud-tasks`, `codex-exec-server`, `codex-login`, and
`codex-model-provider` together.
## Why
A realtime session can end after more transcript has accumulated than
was included in its last handoff. That tail already lives in core's
active transcript state, but the stop path aborted the realtime
input/fanout tasks before routing it, so the final bit of the
conversation could disappear before `thread/realtime/closed`.
This behavior is still being evaluated, so clients must opt in per
realtime session. Omitted or false leaves shutdown behavior unchanged.
## What changed
- Add optional `flushTranscriptTailOnSessionEnd` to
`thread/realtime/start`, defaulting to false in app-server.
- Expose an idempotent `take_transcript_tail()` from the existing active
transcript state using `last_handoff_entry_count`.
- When enabled, let shutdown cancel the input owner cleanly and publish
at most one final existing `<realtime_delegation>` with the remaining
text in `<transcript_delta>`.
- Have the existing fanout drain already-parsed events before routing
that final delegation, so a queued handoff wins first and is not
duplicated in the tail.
- Flush realtime shutdown before ordinary session task abort during core
cleanup.

## Summary
- deserialize `retry_model` from streamed `safety_buffering` payloads
- preserve the existing downstream faster-model API and legacy header
fallback
- update SSE, WebSocket, and end-to-end safety-buffering coverage
## Root cause
Follow-up to #31064. The Responses API emits the retry target as
`retry_model`, but the client was looking for `faster_model`, so the
payload value was ignored in favor of the compatibility fallback.
## Behavior
A non-null `retry_model` from the buffering payload takes precedence. An
explicit null leaves the retry target unset, while an omitted field
continues to fall back to the existing response header.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-api` (135 tests)
- `just test -p codex-core safety_buffering` (2 tests)
- `just fix -p codex-api`
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
## Summary
- preserve reasoning item IDs on summary part and text delta events
- track streamed response items by ID so reasoning summaries can
continue after later items begin
- keep TUI output complete and deduplicated when reasoning and
final-answer events interleave
## Stack
- **1/2: this PR — interleaved item support**
- 2/2: #30752 — wire reasoning summary delivery configuration through
the CLI and app-server

## Summary
- read optional faster-model metadata from streamed buffering payloads
- use the buffering payload itself to determine whether buffering UI
should be shown
- retain the existing header value as a compatibility fallback when the
payload omits the field
## Behavior
An object-valued buffering signal now enables the buffering UI. The
response event's faster-model field takes precedence when present, while
omitted fields fall back to existing response metadata. An explicit null
leaves the retry target unset.

- `just fix -p codex-api`
- `cargo fmt --all -- --check`
- `git diff --check`
