## Why
Extensions can already contribute prompt fragments and request same-turn
item injection, but there was no host-owned hook for contributing
structured `ResponseItem`s while Codex is assembling a new turn's
initial model input. This change adds that seam so extensions can attach
turn-local input that depends on the submitted user input and resolved
turn environments without routing through prompt text or late injection.
## What changed
- add `TurnInputContributor` to `codex_extension_api` and export the new
`TurnInputContext` / `TurnInputEnvironment` types it receives
- teach `ExtensionRegistry` to register and expose turn-input
contributors alongside the existing extension hooks
- call registered turn-input contributors from
`core/src/session/turn.rs` while building the initial injected input for
a turn, then append their returned `ResponseItem`s after the skill and
plugin injections
## Summary
- Adapts the moved `codex-cloud-config` crate from the legacy cloud
requirements endpoint to the new config bundle endpoint.
- Switches runtime consumers from `CloudRequirementsLoader` to
`CloudConfigBundleLoader` so one shared bundle supplies cloud-delivered
config and requirements.
- Removes the legacy cloud requirements domain loader path.
## Details
This intentionally keeps `codex-cloud-config` monolithic for review
lineage: the previous PR establishes the crate move, and this PR shows
the behavior change against that moved implementation. A follow-up PR
splits the module back into focused files.
The new bundle path preserves the important cloud requirements loader
semantics where intended: account-scoped signed cache, 30 minute TTL, 5
minute refresh cadence, retry/backoff, auth recovery, and fail-closed
startup loading. The cached payload changes from a single requirements
TOML string to the backend-delivered bundle, and validation rejects
malformed config or requirements fragments before cache write/use.
## Summary
- carry `workspace_kind` from Responses API client metadata into the
turn resolved analytics fact
- serialize the optional value on `codex_turn_event`
- cover both the turn metadata source and turn event serialization
The `workspace_kind` tells us whether a thread had a project attached vs
projectless. this is an indicator for who is adopting Codex for
knowledge work outside of coding

2. #25858 - Add `environmentId` to `request_permissions`: lets the model
target a selected environment and resolves relative permission paths
against it.
3. This PR (#25862) - Propagate permission approval environment id:
carries the selected environment id through approval events, app-server
requests, TUI prompts, and delegate forwarding.
4. #25867 - Add remote request permissions integration coverage:
verifies the selected remote environment across request, approval, grant
reuse, and exec.
This PR is stacked on #25858, and #25867 is stacked on this PR.
## Why
PR2 lets the model bind a `request_permissions` call to a selected
environment, but the approval event and client-facing request still
needed to carry that binding. For CCA, the user-facing prompt and
delegated approval path should know which environment the grant applies
to instead of relying on cwd alone.
## What Changed
- Added optional `environmentId` to `RequestPermissionsEvent`.
- Emit the selected environment id from core permission approval events.
- Preserve the environment id through delegate forwarding, including
cwd-based delegated requests.
- Added `environmentId` to app-server permission approval params,
generated schema/TypeScript artifacts, and README examples.
- Preserve and display the environment id in TUI permission approval
prompts.
- Updated focused core, app-server protocol, and TUI conversion
coverage.

This PR is stacked on #25850; #25862 and #25867 are stacked on this PR.
## Why
PR1 made request-permission grants internally environment-keyed, but the
model-facing `request_permissions` tool could still only target the
primary environment. For CCA and multi-environment turns, the tool needs
an explicit way to bind a permission request to a selected attached
environment before resolving relative paths.
## What Changed
- Added optional `environmentId` to `RequestPermissionsArgs`, with
`environment_id` accepted as an alias.
- Exposed `environmentId` in the `request_permissions` tool schema and
description.
- Resolve the selected environment before parsing filesystem permission
paths, so relative paths bind to the selected environment cwd.
- Route validated tool calls through
`request_permissions_for_environment` directly instead of duplicating
environment lookup in `Session::request_permissions`.
- Reject unknown environment ids with a model-facing error.
- Updated focused request-permissions and Guardian call sites for the
new optional field.
## Testing
Not run locally per instruction.
## Summary
- add analytics-only `CodexErr` telemetry to `codex_turn_event` while
leaving existing `turn_error` unchanged
- record terminal `CodexErr` facts from core immediately before the
existing turn error event is sent
- emit source-truth `codex_error_*` fields for downstream analytics,
including the raw `CodexErr::InvalidRequest(String)` message as
`codex_error_subreason`

across unrelated integration suites in this environment and is not being

#25858, #25862, and #25867 are stacked on this PR and should be reviewed
after it.
## Why
Multi-environment CCA turns can attach both local and remote executors,
but request-permission grants were still effectively cwd-only. Pending
permission requests tracked a cwd, while stored turn/session grants had
no environment identity, so sticky grants could be reused through the
wrong executor context.
This makes the first permission-grant step environment-aware without
changing the external `request_permissions` payload shape: omitted
environment targeting remains bound to the primary turn environment.
## What Changed
- Store turn- and session-scoped request-permission grants by
`environment_id`.
- Keep the selected `TurnEnvironmentSelection` with pending
`request_permissions` calls so approval responses normalize and record
grants against the same environment.
- Resolve relative `request_permissions` file paths against the primary
turn environment cwd instead of deprecated `turn.cwd`.
- Apply sticky grants in `shell`, `exec_command`, and `apply_patch` by
selected environment id while still using the actual tool cwd for
cwd-relative permission materialization.
- Update Guardian and request-permissions coverage for the
environment-keyed grant behavior.
## Testing
Not run locally. Added or updated focused coverage for:
- `request_permission_grants_are_environment_keyed`
-
`request_permissions_tool_resolves_relative_paths_against_primary_environment`
- related Guardian/request-permissions sticky grant tests
## Why
`/clear` starts a fresh thread with `InitialHistory::Cleared`, which
re-enters the thread/session startup path. That path now builds large
async futures through `ThreadManagerState::spawn_thread_with_source`,
`Codex::spawn`, and `Session::new`. Separately, TUI config rebuilds for
cwd and permission-profile changes build a similarly heavy
`ConfigBuilder::build()` future inside the app task. In debug and Bazel
runs, those call chains can put enough state on the caller stack to
abort before startup or config refresh completes.
This change keeps the behavior the same while moving the heaviest future
frames off the caller stack.
## What changed
- Box `Codex::spawn(...)` in `codex-rs/core/src/thread_manager.rs`
before awaiting it from `spawn_thread_with_source`.
- Box `Session::new(...)` in `codex-rs/core/src/session/mod.rs` before
awaiting it from `Codex::spawn_internal`.
- Route `ConfigBuilder::build()` through a small `tokio::spawn` helper
in `codex-rs/tui/src/app/config_persistence.rs` so cwd and
permission-profile config rebuilds run on a runtime worker stack while
preserving error context.
## Verification
CI is running on the PR.
No new targeted tests were added. This is a mechanical stack-pressure
reduction that keeps the existing behavior and error propagation intact.
## Why
Follow-up to #25722. Startup prewarm builds a preview `TurnContext`
before the first real turn so it can precompute the initial prompt and
tool surface. After the per-thread runtime work landed, that preview
path still recomputed multi-agent mode from `model_info` and feature
defaults instead of reusing the runtime the session had already resolved
from persisted metadata or inheritance.
That could leave the prewarmed session primed for a different
multi-agent mode than the first real turn, which is especially risky
because collaboration tool exposure depends on
`turn_context.multi_agent_version`.
## What changed
- In the `TurnMultiAgentRuntime::Preview` path, prefer
`Session::multi_agent_version()` when it is already known.
- Only fall back to `model_info.multi_agent_version` and feature
defaults when the session has not resolved a runtime yet.
- Keep preview mode read-only: this still avoids storing a runtime
during startup prewarm.
## Testing
- Not run (small runtime-selection follow-up)

## Summary
- cache the global remote plugin catalog when remote plugin listing runs
and warm it during startup
- use the cached remote catalog in plugin install recommendations with
canonical `plugin@openai-curated-remote` ids
- reuse the session `PluginsManager` for plugin recommendations so
remote cache state is visible on the recommend path
- skip core installed-state verification for remote plugin install
suggestions while leaving local plugin and connector verification
unchanged

## Summary
Enterprise users can have an effective monthly credit limit, but Codex
`/status` currently drops that metadata from the account-usage response.
This change adds the optional `spend_control.individual_limit`
projection to the existing rate-limit snapshot flow. The backend client
reads the monthly limit, app-server exposes it as `individualLimit`, and
the TUI renders a `Monthly credit limit` row through the existing
progress-bar renderer.
When the backend does not return an effective monthly limit, existing
rate-limit behavior is unchanged.
## Existing backend state
The account-usage backend already returns the effective monthly limit
and current usage together:
```json
{
"spend_control": {
"reached": false,
"individual_limit": {
"limit": "25000",
"used": "8000",
"remaining": "17000",
"used_percent": 32,
"remaining_percent": 68,
"reset_after_seconds": 86400,
"reset_at": 1778137680
}
}
}
```
Before this change, Codex projected rolling `primary` and `secondary`
windows plus `credits`. It ignored `spend_control.individual_limit`, so
app-server clients and `/status` could not render the monthly cap.
The updated flow is:
```text
account usage backend
-> backend-client reads spend_control.individual_limit
-> existing rate-limit snapshot carries optional individual_limit
-> app-server exposes optional individualLimit
-> TUI renders Monthly credit limit
```
## App-server contract
`account/rateLimits/read` and sparse `account/rateLimits/updated`
notifications now include an additive nullable
`rateLimits.individualLimit` field:
```json
{
"individualLimit": {
"limit": "25000",
"used": "8000",
"remainingPercent": 68,
"resetsAt": 1778137680
}
}
```
In an `account/rateLimits/read` response, `null` means no monthly limit
is available. `account/rateLimits/updated` remains a sparse rolling
notification: clients merge available values into their most recent
`account/rateLimits/read` snapshot or refetch. Nullable account metadata
in a rolling notification does not clear a previously observed value.
## Design decisions
- Extend the existing rate-limit snapshot instead of introducing a
separate request or wire-level update protocol.
- Keep the Codex projection narrow: `/status` needs the effective limit,
current usage, remaining percentage, and reset timestamp.
- Render the monthly row through the existing progress-bar renderer,
with one optional detail line for `8,000 of 25,000 credits used`.
- Keep the backend response optional so existing accounts and older
usage states preserve their current behavior.
- Preserve cached monthly metadata when sparse rolling notifications
omit it. Live account-usage reads remain authoritative and can clear a
removed limit.
## Visual evidence
```text
Monthly credit limit: [██████████████░░░░░░] 68% left (resets 07:08 on 7 May)
8,000 of 25,000 credits used
```
Snapshot:
`codex-rs/tui/src/status/snapshots/codex_tui__status__tests__status_snapshot_includes_enterprise_monthly_credit_limit.snap`
## Testing
Tests: generated app-server schema verification, protocol tests,
backend-client tests, app-server integration coverage, TUI snapshot
coverage, formatting, and workspace lint cleanup.
## Summary
Remove the dead experimental `persistExtendedHistory` app-server flag
and collapse rollout persistence to the single policy app-server already
used.
## What Changed
- Removed `persistExtendedHistory` from v2 thread start/resume/fork
params and deleted its deprecation notice path.
- Removed the persistence-mode enums and plumbing through core, rollout,
and thread-store.
- Made rollout filtering mode-free, keeping the existing limited
persisted-history behavior.
## Test Plan
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `cargo nextest run --no-fail-fast -p codex-app-server-protocol
schema_fixtures`
- `cargo nextest run --no-fail-fast -p codex-app-server
thread_shell_command_history_responses_exclude_persisted_command_executions`
- `cargo nextest run --no-fail-fast -p codex-rollout -p
codex-thread-store`
- final `rg` for removed flag/type names
## Why
`shell_zsh_fork` and unified exec need to remain independently
controllable for enterprise rollouts, but we also need a third mode that
composes them. That composed mode is intended to preserve unified exec
command lifecycle support while letting the zsh fork provide more
accurate `execv(2)` interception.
Enabling `unified_exec_zsh_fork` by itself is intentionally not
sufficient. It is a composition gate, not a dependency-enabling
shortcut:
- `unified_exec` selects the PTY-backed unified exec tool.
- `shell_zsh_fork` opts into the zsh fork backend.
- `unified_exec_zsh_fork` only allows those two already-enabled modes to
be composed so local zsh unified exec commands can launch through the
zsh fork.
This separation is deliberate. Enterprises and staged rollouts must be
able to enable or disable unified exec and zsh-fork independently. If
`unified_exec_zsh_fork` implied either dependency, then enabling one
under-development composition flag would silently activate a shell
backend that the configured feature set left disabled.
This PR introduces only the configuration and planning gate for that
composition. Existing `shell_zsh_fork` behavior continues to use the
standalone shell tool unless the new composition feature is explicitly
enabled alongside both dependencies.
## What Changed
- Added the under-development feature flag `unified_exec_zsh_fork`.
- Added `UnifiedExecFeatureMode` so the three input feature flags
collapse into `Disabled`, `Direct`, or `ZshFork` mode before tool
planning.
- Updated tool selection so zsh-fork composition requires
`unified_exec`, `shell_zsh_fork`, and `unified_exec_zsh_fork`.
- Kept the existing standalone zsh-fork shell tool behavior when only
`shell_zsh_fork` is enabled.
- Updated config schema output for the new feature flag.
## Verification
- Added feature and tool-config coverage for the new gate.
- Added planner coverage proving `shell_zsh_fork` remains standalone
until composition is explicitly enabled.
- Ran focused tests for `codex-features`, `codex-tools`, and the
affected `codex-core` planner case.

## Why
`try_start_turn_if_idle` is the core helper for starting injected input
only when the session is actually idle. It should stay focused on
generic turn-lifecycle safety. The previous `ModeKind::Plan` guard mixed
caller policy into that helper: Plan mode may choose not to auto-start
some extension work, but that decision belongs at the extension or
caller boundary rather than in the session injection primitive.
## What changed
- Removed the `ModeKind::Plan` early return from
`Session::try_start_turn_if_idle`.
- Removed the now-unused `ModeKind` import from
`core/src/session/inject.rs`.
## Testing
Not run locally.
## Why
The goal extension needs a way to resume an active goal after the thread
becomes idle, but the old core goal runtime should not be refactored as
part of this step. The missing piece is a small core-owned turn-start
primitive: let an extension ask for a normal model turn only when the
thread is idle, and otherwise fail without injecting into whatever is
currently active.
## What Changed
- Adds `CodexThread::try_start_turn_if_idle(...)` as the narrow
extension-facing primitive for synthetic idle work.
- Implements the session side so it refuses to start when:
- the provided input is empty,
- the session is in plan mode,
- a turn is already active, or
- trigger-turn mailbox work is pending.
- Gives trigger-turn mailbox work priority if it appears while the idle
turn is being prepared.
- Wires `GoalExtension::on_thread_idle` to read the active persisted
goal and submit the continuation prompt through this idle-only
primitive.
- Keeps the legacy core goal continuation implementation in place
instead of folding it into this PR.
## Behavior
This is intentionally best-effort. If `try_start_turn_if_idle` observes
that the thread is not idle, or that higher-priority mailbox work should
run first, it returns the input to the caller. The goal extension drops
that continuation prompt and waits for a future idle opportunity instead
of injecting stale synthetic goal text into an active turn.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-core
try_start_turn_if_idle_rejects_active_turn_without_injecting`
- `just test -p codex-goal-extension`
## Summary
- default multi-agent v2 to direct-model-only tools so code mode does
not wrap subagent tools
- add default root/subagent team prompts aligned with dogfood training
assumptions
- tighten spawn-agent model override wording to prefer the inherited
model by default
## Tests
- just fmt
- just test -p codex-core

- just test -p codex-core
multi_agent_v2_default_session_thread_cap_counts_root
- just test -p codex-rollout-trace
- just fix -p codex-core
- just fix -p codex-rollout-trace
Note: a broad just test -p codex-core run was attempted locally, but
this sandbox produced unrelated environment failures around
sandbox-exec, missing test_stdio_server, and realtime timeouts.
## Why
This PR
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/24161#discussion_r3325692763
revealed a subagent data modeling issue, where we overloaded
`forked_from_id` to also mean `parent_thread_id`. That's incorrect since
guardian and review subagents can be a subagent and NOT fork the main
thread's history.
The solution here is to explicitly store a new `parent_thread_id` on
`SessionMeta`, alongside `forked_from_id` which already exists. While
we're at it, also expose it in the app-server protocol on the `Thread`
object.
A thread->subagent relationship and a fork of thread history are
orthogonal concepts.
## What Changed
- Added top-level `parent_thread_id` persistence on `SessionMeta` and
runtime/session plumbing through `SessionConfiguredEvent`,
`CodexSpawnArgs`, `SessionConfiguration`, `ThreadConfigSnapshot`,
`TurnContext`, and `ModelClient`.
- Made turn metadata, request headers, analytics, and subagent-start
events read the separate runtime/top-level parent field instead of
deriving general parent lineage from `SessionSource` or
`forked_from_thread_id`.
- Passed parent lineage separately at delegated subagent, review,
guardian, agent-job, and multi-agent spawn construction sites;
copied-history fork lineage remains derived only from `InitialHistory`.
- Persisted and exposed parent lineage through rollout/thread-store
projections and app-server v2 `Thread.parentThreadId`.
- Updated app-server README text and regenerated app-server schema
fixtures for the additive `parentThreadId` response field.
## Summary
- Keep the original `TOOL_SUGGEST_DISCOVERABLE_PLUGIN_ALLOWLIST` as a
fallback seed list, so users with no installed plugins still get initial
install suggestions.
- Allow additional install suggestions from trusted marketplaces:
`openai-curated` and `openai-bundled`.
- Require non-fallback, non-configured marketplace candidates to share
`.app.json` connector IDs with already installed plugins.
- Preserve explicit configured plugin discoverables as an override,
while still omitting installed, disabled, and `NOT_AVAILABLE` plugins.
## Context
`list_available_plugins_to_install` controls which plugins the model can
trigger via `request_plugin_install`. We want a small starter set for
empty/new users, but we also want installed workflow plugins to unlock
relevant source plugins without maintaining every source plugin ID by
hand.
This keeps the legacy plugin ID allowlist only as the starter fallback.
For everything else, the trusted marketplace is the candidate boundary,
and installed app connector overlap is the relevance filter. For
example, an installed Sales plugin can make HubSpot and Granola
suggestible when those source plugins are in `openai-curated` and share
Sales app connector IDs, while an unrelated test-source plugin with an
app connector not declared by Sales stays hidden.
## Test Coverage
- Empty/no-installed-plugin case: returns the fallback seed plugins from
the original allowlist.
- Installed-app expansion: returns non-fallback marketplace plugins only
when their app connector IDs overlap with an installed plugin.
- Sales workflow case: installed Sales declares HubSpot and Granola
apps, so `hubspot@openai-curated` and `granola@openai-curated` are
returned.
- Sales negative case: `test-source@openai-curated` has an app connector
not declared by Sales, so it is not returned.
- Existing guardrails: installed plugins, disabled suggestions, and
`NOT_AVAILABLE` plugins remain omitted; explicit configured
discoverables still work as an override.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-core plugins::discoverable::tests`
- `just test -p codex-core` was attempted earlier, but current `main` /
local env failed with unrelated existing failures around missing
`test_stdio_server`, CLI/code-mode MCP tool setup, and
unified_exec/shell snapshot flakes/timeouts. The touched discoverable
tests pass.
## Summary
Introduce a `CodeModeSession` interface for executing and managing
code-mode cells.
This moves cell lifecycle, callback delegation, termination, and
shutdown behind a session abstraction, while continuing to use the
existing in-process implementation, and the ability to implement an
external process one behind this interface.
A Codex session owns one `CodeModeSession`, which in turn owns its
running cells and stored code-mode state. Each cell is represented to
the caller as a `StartedCell`, exposing its cell ID and initial
response.
It also introduces a `CodeModeSessionDelegate` callback interface. A
session uses the delegate to invoke nested host tools and emit
notifications while a cell is running, allowing the runtime to
communicate with its owning Codex session without depending directly on
core turn handling.

## Why
We recently added `forked_from_thread_id` which lets us trace where a
thread's _context_ comes from, but we also want to understand subagent
lineage (e.g. which parent thread spawned this subagent? what kind of
subagent is it?) which is orthogonal.
This PR adds `parent_thread_id` and `subagent_kind` to the
`x-codex-turn-metadata` header sent to ResponsesAPI.
## What changed
- Adds `parent_thread_id` and `subagent_kind` to core-owned
`x-codex-turn-metadata`.
- Restores persisted `SessionSource` and `ThreadSource` from resumed
session metadata so cold-resumed subagent threads keep their lineage on
later Responses API requests.
- Centralizes parent-thread extraction on `SessionSource` /
`SubAgentSource` and reuses it in the Responses client, analytics, agent
control, and state parsing paths.
- Extends reserved-key, git-enrichment, thread-spawn, and app-server v2
metadata coverage for the new lineage fields.
## Verification
- Not run locally per request.
- Added focused coverage in `core/src/turn_metadata_tests.rs` and
`app-server/tests/suite/v2/client_metadata.rs`.
## Why
Some models need to select their code-execution behavior through model
catalog metadata. Models without that metadata must continue to follow
the existing `CodeMode` and `CodeModeOnly` feature flags, including when
a newer server sends an enum value this client does not recognize.
## What changed
- add optional `ModelInfo.tool_mode` metadata with `direct`,
`code_mode`, and `code_mode_only`
- treat omitted and unknown wire values as `None`
- resolve `None` from the existing feature flags
- carry the resolved `ToolMode` directly on `TurnContext`, outside
`Config`
- use the resolved value for turn creation, model switches, review
turns, tool planning, and code execution
## Coverage
- add protocol coverage for omitted, known, and unknown enum values
- add focused coverage for flag fallback and explicit metadata
overriding feature flags
- add core integration coverage that fetches remote model metadata
through `/v1/models` and verifies the outbound `/responses` tools for
explicit `direct` and `code_mode_only` selectors
## Stack
- followed by #25032
## Why
Goal steering is one form of runtime-owned model context, but the old
`<goal_context>` wrapper made the contextual-fragment hiding path
goal-specific. Using a source-labeled internal context fragment gives
core and extensions a shared shape for hidden model steering while
keeping those prompts out of visible turn history.
The change also keeps legacy `<goal_context>` messages recognized as
hidden contextual input so existing stored history does not start
rendering old goal-steering prompts as user-visible turn items.
## What Changed
- Replaces `GoalContext` with `InternalModelContextFragment` plus a
validated `InternalContextSource`.
- Renders goal steering as `<codex_internal_context
source="goal">...</codex_internal_context>`.
- Updates core goal steering and `ext/goal` steering to inject the new
internal-context fragment.
- Updates contextual-fragment, event-mapping, goal, and session tests
for the new wrapper.
## Test Coverage
- Adds coverage for detecting the new internal model context fragment.
- Preserves coverage for hiding legacy `<goal_context>` fragments.
- Verifies invalid internal context sources are rejected and arbitrary
context tags are not hidden.
- Updates goal steering/session assertions to expect the new
`source="goal"` wrapper.
## Summary
Some permission profiles can encode filesystem reads that should remain
unavailable to the agent. Before this change, the model-visible context
and automatic approval review prompt summarized the effective
permissions as a legacy sandbox mode, which can omit permission-profile
filesystem entries from escalation decisions.
For example, a profile can grant workspace access while denying a
private subtree across every workspace root:
```toml
default_permissions = "restricted-workspace"
[permissions.restricted-workspace.workspace_roots]
"/Users/alice/project" = true
"/Users/alice/other-project" = true
[permissions.restricted-workspace.filesystem]
":minimal" = "read"
[permissions.restricted-workspace.filesystem.":workspace_roots"]
"." = "write"
"private" = "deny"
"private/**" = "deny"
```
The context window now describes the workspace roots and effective
filesystem side of the `PermissionProfile` directly, with deny entries
marked as non-escalatable:
```xml
<environment_context>
<cwd>/Users/alice/project</cwd>
<shell>zsh</shell>
<filesystem><workspace_roots><root>/Users/alice/project</root><root>/Users/alice/other-project</root></workspace_roots><permission_profile type="managed"><file_system type="restricted"><entry access="read"><special>:minimal</special></entry><entry access="write"><path>/Users/alice/project</path></entry><entry access="write"><path>/Users/alice/other-project</path></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><path>/Users/alice/project/private</path></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><path>/Users/alice/other-project/private</path></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><glob>/Users/alice/project/private/**</glob></entry><entry access="deny" escalatable="false"><glob>/Users/alice/other-project/private/**</glob></entry></file_system></permission_profile></filesystem>
</environment_context>
```
Managed requirements can impose the same kind of deny-read restriction:
```toml
[permissions.filesystem]
deny_read = [
"/Users/alice/project/private",
"/Users/alice/project/private/**",
]
```
The automatic approval review prompt also receives the parent turn's
denied-read context, so review decisions can account for the active
permission profile.
## What Changed
- Render the effective filesystem profile in `<environment_context>`,
including profile type, filesystem entries, workspace roots, and
non-escalatable deny entries.
- Persist effective `workspace_roots` in `TurnContextItem` so
resumed/replayed context does not have to bind `:workspace_roots`
through legacy `cwd` fallback.
- Add explicit permission instructions that denied reads are policy
restrictions, not escalation targets.
- Pass the parent turn's denied-read context into automatic approval
reviews.
- Add targeted coverage for prompt rendering, workspace-root
materialization, replay context, and review prompt context.
- Keep the prompt-context test expectations platform-aware so the same
filesystem rendering assertions pass on Unix and Windows paths.
## Testing
- `just test -p codex-core
context::environment_context::tests::serialize_environment_context_with_full_filesystem_profile`
- `just test -p codex-core
context::environment_context::tests::turn_context_item_filesystem_uses_workspace_roots_instead_of_cwd`
- `just test -p codex-core
context::permissions_instructions::permissions_instructions_tests::builds_permissions_from_profile_with_denied_reads`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
I also attempted `just test -p codex-core`; the changed prompt-context
tests passed, but the full local run did not complete cleanly in this
sandboxed macOS environment due unrelated user-shell `CODEX_SANDBOX*`
expectations and integration-test timeouts.
## Summary
Adds an optional `clientId` field to app-server v2 `UserInput` and
carries it through the core `UserInput` model so clients can correlate
echoed user input items without relying on payload equality.
## Details
- Adds `client_id: Option<String>` to core `UserInput` variants.
- Exposes the v2 app-server field as `clientId` on the wire and in
generated TypeScript.
- Preserves the id when converting between app-server v2 and core
protocol types.
- Regenerates app-server schema fixtures.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `just write-app-server-schema`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol`
- `just fix -p codex-app-server-protocol`

- `git diff --check`
## Why
#24744 introduced the thread idle lifecycle hook so idle continuation
can be owned by lifecycle contributors instead of hard-coded goal
runtime plumbing. Task completion still called
`goal_runtime_apply(GoalRuntimeEvent::MaybeContinueIfIdle)` directly, so
the post-turn idle transition remained goal-specific and did not notify
generic thread lifecycle contributors.
## What Changed
- Add `Session::emit_thread_idle_lifecycle_if_idle()` to gate idle
emission on both no active turn and no queued trigger-turn mailbox work.
- Call that helper when a task clears the active turn, replacing the
direct `GoalRuntimeEvent::MaybeContinueIfIdle` path.
- Cover the behavior with `codex-core` session tests for emitting after
task completion and suppressing idle emission while trigger-turn mailbox
work is pending.
## Verification
- New tests in `core/src/session/tests.rs` exercise the idle lifecycle
emission and trigger-turn mailbox guard.
Summary
- Add TurnErrorInput and TurnLifecycleContributor::on_turn_error to the
extension API.
- Emit the turn-error lifecycle from core turn error paths, including
usage limit failures.
- Add direct lifecycle coverage for the emitted error facts and stores.
Tests
- just fmt
- git diff --check
- Not run: full tests or clippy (per instructions)
Summary: add session source and persistent-state availability to
ThreadStartInput; populate them from session init; update existing goal
test harness constructors. Tests: just fmt; git diff --check. No full
tests or clippy run per request.
Split from the Guardian prompt cache key change. This PR only updates
codex-rs/core/src/session/session.rs. Validation was not run per
request; this branch is expected to rely on the companion split PRs.
## Why
Dynamic tools are defined at thread start and already stored in rollout
`SessionMeta`, which restores resumed and forked sessions. Persisting
the same tools through SQLite creates a second runtime persistence path
that is unnecessary prework for the explicit namespace refactor.
## What changed
- Restore missing thread-start dynamic tools directly from rollout
history, including when SQLite is enabled.
- Remove SQLite dynamic-tool reads, writes, backfill, and thread
metadata patch plumbing.
- Add SQLite-enabled resume integration coverage that verifies a
rollout-defined dynamic tool is still sent after resume.
## Compatibility
The existing `thread_dynamic_tools` table is intentionally not dropped
even though it's now unused. Older Codex binaries are allowed to open
databases migrated by newer binaries and still reference this table;
dropping it would break that mixed-version path. See
[here](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/codex-rs/state/src/migrations.rs#L10-L11).
## Verification
- `just test -p codex-state -p codex-rollout -p codex-thread-store`
- `just test -p codex-core --test all
resume_restores_dynamic_tools_from_rollout_with_sqlite_enabled`
## Why
Interrupted `shell_command` calls can race with the outer tool-dispatch
cancellation path. When that happens, the runtime future may be dropped
before the spawned process gets a chance to run `SIGTERM` cleanup. For
bwrapd-backed Linux sandbox commands, that can leave synthetic
protected-path mount bookkeeping such as `.git/.codex` registrations
under `/tmp` behind after a TUI interruption.
The relevant cancellation points are the outer dispatch race in
[`core/src/tools/parallel.rs`](bd184ba847/codex-rs/core/src/tools/parallel.rs (L91-L132))
and the process shutdown logic in
[`core/src/exec.rs`](bd184ba847/codex-rs/core/src/exec.rs (L1367-L1393)).
## What changed
- Keep `shell_command` dispatch alive long enough for the runtime to
finish cancellation cleanup instead of immediately returning the
synthetic aborted response.
- Fold shell-turn cancellation into the existing `ExecExpiration` path
in
[`core/src/tools/runtimes/shell.rs`](bd184ba847/codex-rs/core/src/tools/runtimes/shell.rs (L267-L274)),
so cancellation and timeout behavior stay centralized.
- On cancellation, send `SIGTERM` first, wait briefly for cleanup to
run, then hard-kill any remaining descendants in the original process
group.
- Treat `ESRCH` as an already-gone process-group cleanup case in
`codex-utils-pty`, which keeps best-effort teardown from surfacing a
stale-process race as an error.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-core cancellation`
- Added regression coverage for:
- `shell_tool_cancellation_waits_for_runtime_cleanup`
- `process_exec_tool_call_cancellation_allows_sigterm_cleanup`
## Summary
- Add `request_kind` values for foreground turn, startup prewarm,
compaction, and detached memory model requests.
- Attach compaction dispatch metadata to local Responses, legacy
`/v1/responses/compact`, and remote v2 compact requests.
- Add the existing logical context-window identifier as `window_id` on
turn-owned model request metadata.
- Keep identity fields optional for detached memory requests, while
still emitting `request_kind="memory"` in non-git/no-sandbox workspaces.
## Root Cause
`x-codex-turn-metadata` has more than one producer. Foreground turns and
compaction requests own a real turn and should carry that turn identity.
Detached memory stage-one requests do not own a foreground turn, so
absent identity fields are valid rather than missing data. Startup
websocket prewarm is also a model request, but it has `generate=false`
and must not be counted as a foreground turn.
`thread_source` or session source identifies where a thread came from
(for example review, guardian, or another subagent). `request_kind`
identifies what the current outbound model request is doing (`turn`,
`prewarm`, `compaction`, or `memory`). A review or guardian thread can
issue either a normal turn request or a compaction request, so source
cannot replace request kind.
## Behavior / Impact
- Ordinary foreground requests send `request_kind="turn"`, their real
identity fields, and `window_id="<thread_id>:<window_generation>"`.
- Startup websocket warmup requests send `request_kind="prewarm"` so
they are not counted as foreground turns.
- Compaction requests send `request_kind="compaction"`, their real
owning turn identity, the existing `window_id`, and
`compaction.{trigger,reason,implementation,phase,strategy}`.
- Detached memory stage-one requests send `request_kind="memory"`
without `session_id`, `thread_id`, `turn_id`, or `window_id`; when no
workspace metadata exists, the kind-only header is still emitted.
- `session_id`, `thread_id`, `turn_id`, and `window_id` remain optional
in the header schema because detached memory requests do not own a
foreground turn or context window.
- `window_id` is not a new ID system: it is copied from the already-sent
`x-codex-window-id` / WS client metadata value at model-request dispatch
time.
- Existing `x-codex-window-id` HTTP/WS emission, value format,
generation advancement, resume behavior, and fork reset behavior are
unchanged.
- `request_kind`, `window_id`, and upstream turn-owned identity fields
remain schema-owned; input `responsesapi_client_metadata` cannot replace
their canonical values.
- No table, DAG, export, app-server API, or MCP `_meta` schema changes
are included.
A compaction attempt stopped by a pre-compact hook issues no model
request and therefore has no request header; its outcome remains in
analytics events. Status, error, duration, and token deltas also remain
analytics fields rather than request-header fields.
Future detached-memory attribution using a real initiating turn ID as
`trigger_turn_id` is intentionally not part of this PR.
## Sync With Main
- Final pushed head `716342e79` is rebased onto `origin/main@0d37db4b2`.
- The metadata conflict came from upstream `#24160`, which added
`forked_from_thread_id` on the same `turn_metadata` surface. Resolution
preserves that field and its protection from client metadata override
alongside this PR's request-kind, compaction, and window-id fields.
- While resolving the overlapping commits, I removed an accidental
recursive model-request overlay and a duplicate detached-memory header
builder before completing the rebase.
## Latency / User Experience Boundary
- Foreground turns perform no new filesystem, git, or network work. New
fields are inserted into metadata already serialized for outgoing
requests.
- Compaction issues the same model/HTTP requests with the same prompt,
model, service tier, and sampling settings; only metadata bytes change.
- Startup prewarm already sent metadata; it is now correctly classified
as `prewarm`.
- Non-git detached memory now sends a small kind-only metadata header
rather than no header.
- This client diff adds no user-visible latency mechanism beyond
negligible serialization and header bytes on already-existing requests.
## Validation

## Why
When a turn needs a follow-up request after tool output is recorded,
Codex can still appear stuck in `Thinking` before the next `/responses`
request is opened. The existing local trace showed the last completed
response and the absence of a new backend request, but it did not show
whether the stall was in tool-router preparation or later request setup.
Issue: N/A (internal incident investigation)
## What Changed
Added trace spans around the pre-stream tool-router handoff in
`core/src/session/turn.rs`, including the `built_tools` phase and the
MCP manager read lock.
Added per-server MCP tool-listing spans and trace breadcrumbs in
`codex-mcp/src/connection_manager.rs` with startup snapshot /
startup-complete state so a pending MCP client is visible in feedback
logs instead of looking like a silent hang.
## Verification
- `just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-mcp`
- `just test -p codex-core` (prior full rerun fails in this workspace on
unrelated integration tests: code-mode output length expectations, one
shell timeout formatting assertion, and shell snapshot timeouts; latest
review-fix rerun compiled and passed 1160 tests before I stopped the
abnormally slow unrelated suite)
## Why
- Runtime analytics events report `thread_id`, which identifies the
individual thread emitting an event
- They don't report `session_id`, which identifies the shared session
for a root thread and its subagent threads
- Emitting both identifiers allows analytics to group related activity
## What Changed
- Adds `session_id` to relevant analytics events (thread_initalized,
turn, turn_steer, compaction, guardian_review)
- Tracks each thread's session ID in the analytics reducer so subsequent
thread scoped events emit the same value
- Carries the shared session ID through subagent initialization
## Verification
- `just test -p codex-analytics` validates event payloads and subagent
session grouping.
- Focused `codex-app-server` tests validate session IDs for thread,
turn, and steer events.
- Focused `codex-core` tests validate root and subagent session ID
propagation.
## Why
When Codex calls responsesapi, we currently send `session_id`,
`thread_id`, and `turn_id` among other things as
`client_metadata["x-codex-turn-metadata"]`. This PR adds
`forked_from_thread_id` which helps explain the "lineage" of a forked
thread.
## What's changed
- Track the immediate history source copied into a forked thread through
thread/session creation, including subagent and review turn metadata
paths.
- Include `forked_from_thread_id` in Codex turn metadata while
preventing turn-scoped Responses API client metadata from overwriting
Codex-owned lineage fields.
- Add coverage for fork lineage in turn metadata and the app-server
Responses API request path.
## Summary
Adds experimental `additionalContext` support to `turn/start` and
`turn/steer` so clients can provide ephemeral external context, such as
browser or automation state, without turning that plumbing into a
visible user prompt or triggering user-prompt lifecycle behavior.
## API Shape
The parameter shape is:
```ts
additionalContext?: Record<string, {
value: string
kind: "untrusted" | "application"
}> | null
```
Example:
```json
{
"additionalContext": {
"browser_info": {
"value": "Active tab is CI failures.",
"kind": "untrusted"
},
"automation_info": {
"value": "CI rerun is in progress.",
"kind": "application"
}
}
}
```
The keys are opaque and caller-defined.
## Context Injection
When provided, accepted entries are inserted into model context as
hidden contextual message items, not as visible thread user-message
items.
`kind: "untrusted"` entries are inserted with role `user`:
```text
<external_${key}>${value}</external_${key}>
```
`kind: "application"` entries are inserted with role `developer`:
```text
<${key}>${value}</${key}>
```
Values are not escaped. Each value is truncated to 1k approximate tokens
before wrapping.
For `turn/start`, accepted additional context is inserted before normal
user input. For `turn/steer`, additional context is merged only when the
steer includes non-empty user input; context-only steers still reject as
empty input.
## Dedupe Strategy
`AdditionalContextStore` lives on session state and stores the latest
complete additional-context map.
Each `turn/start` or non-empty `turn/steer` treats its
`additionalContext` as the current complete set of values. Entries are
injected only when the key is new or the exact entry for that key
changed, including `value` or `kind`. After merging, the store is
replaced with the provided map, so omitted keys are removed from the
retained set and can be injected again later if reintroduced.
Omitting `additionalContext`, passing `null`, or passing an empty object
resets the store to empty and injects nothing.
## What Changed
- Threads experimental v2 `additionalContext` through app-server into
core turn start and steer handling.
- Adds separate contextual fragment types for untrusted user-role
context and application developer-role context.
- Uses pending response input items so additional context can be
combined with normal user input without treating it as prompt text.
- Adds integration coverage for start/steer flow, role routing,
dedupe/reset behavior, deletion/re-add behavior, hook-blocked input
behavior, empty context-only steer rejection, external-fragment marker
matching, and truncation.
## Why
`codex.task.compact` only distinguished `local` vs `remote`, which made
it hard to answer simple counter questions in Statsig. Manual `/compact`
and automatic compaction were collapsed together, and the legacy remote
path was also collapsed with `remote_compaction_v2`.
## What Changed
- route `codex.task.compact` through a shared helper in
`core/src/tasks/mod.rs`
- add a `manual=true|false` tag so manual and automatic compaction can
be counted separately
- split the remote tag into `remote` and `remote_v2`
- emit the metric from the inline auto-compaction path in
`core/src/session/turn.rs` as well as the manual `CompactTask` path in
`core/src/tasks/compact.rs`
- add focused unit coverage for the new tag shapes in
`core/src/tasks/mod_tests.rs`
## Verification
- added unit coverage in `core/src/tasks/mod_tests.rs` covering manual
`remote_v2` tags and automatic `local` tags
## Why
The `non_prefixed_mcp_tool_names` feature should be applied where MCP
tools become model-visible, not by remapping names later in core.
Keeping the decision in `McpConnectionManager` construction makes
`ToolInfo` the single shaped view that spec building, deferred tool
search, routing, and unavailable-tool placeholders can consume directly.
This also preserves the existing external behavior while the feature is
off, and keeps the feature-on behavior for code mode and hooks explicit
at the manager boundary.
## What Changed
- Add `McpToolNameMode` to `codex-mcp` and flow it through `McpConfig`
into `McpConnectionManager::new`.
- Normalize MCP `ToolInfo` names in the manager using either
legacy-prefixed namespaces or non-prefixed namespaces; the legacy path
adds `mcp__` without restoring the old trailing namespace suffix.
- Remove the core-side MCP name remapping path so specs, tool search,
session resolution, and unavailable-tool placeholder construction use
the manager-provided `ToolName` values directly.
- Keep code mode flattening on the `__` namespace separator.
- Preserve hook compatibility by giving non-prefixed MCP hook names
legacy `mcp__...` matcher aliases.
- Add/adjust integration and unit coverage for non-prefixed code-mode
behavior, hook matching with the feature on and off, and manager-level
legacy prefixing.

- `cargo test -p codex-features`
## Why
`ActiveTurn` already runs at most one task: starting a task requires
that no task is present, and replacement aborts existing work first.
Representing that state as an `IndexMap` leaves a multi-task shape for a
single-task invariant and makes each lifecycle lookup operate like a
collection lookup.
The slot remains optional because goal continuation uses an empty active
turn as a reservation while deciding whether to start continuation work.
## What changed
- Replace `ActiveTurn.tasks` with `task: Option<RunningTask>`.
- Update task abort/completion, session lookup and steering, input-queue
matching, goal reservation, and network-approval lookup to operate on
the singular slot.
- Mutate the singular task slot directly instead of retaining
collection-era add/remove/take helpers.
- Record token usage on the completing active task span without a
regular-task-only opt-in flag.
## Validation

- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib
session::tests::abort_regular_task_emits_turn_aborted_only`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib session::input_queue::tests`
## Why
#23951 added remote compaction v2 retries, but it left the retry and WS
-> HTTPS fallback behavior duplicated between normal Responses turns and
compaction. This follow-up centralizes the common retry handling so
future changes to fallback, retry delay, retry notifications, and retry
sleep do not have to be kept in sync across both callsites.
## What changed
- Added `core/src/responses_retry.rs` with a shared handler for
retryable Responses stream errors.
- Reused that handler from normal turn sampling and remote compaction
v2.
- Kept each callsite responsible for its retry budget: normal turns
still use `stream_max_retries`, while compaction v2 still uses
`min(stream_max_retries, 2)`.
- Preserved caller-specific behavior around non-retryable errors,
context-window errors, usage-limit errors, and compact-specific final
failure logging.
The shared handler now owns:
- WS -> HTTPS fallback warning emission
- retry delay selection, including server-requested stream retry delay
- retry logging
- first-WebSocket-retry notification suppression
- `Reconnecting... n/max` stream-error notification
- sleeping before the next retry attempt
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-core remote_compact_v2`
- `cargo test -p codex-core websocket_fallback`
- `just fix -p codex-core`

## Why
The package layout gives Codex a stable place for runtime helpers that
should travel with the entrypoint. `shell_zsh_fork` still required users
to configure `zsh_path` manually, even though we already publish
prebuilt zsh fork artifacts.
This PR builds on #24129 and uses the shared DotSlash artifact fetcher
to include the zsh fork in Codex packages when a matching target
artifact exists. Packaged Codex builds can then discover the bundled
fork automatically; the user/profile `zsh_path` override is removed so
the feature uses the package-managed artifact instead of a legacy path
knob.
## What Changed
- Added `scripts/codex_package/codex-zsh`, a checked-in DotSlash
manifest for the current macOS arm64 and Linux zsh fork artifacts.
- Taught `scripts/build_codex_package.py` to fetch the matching zsh fork
artifact and install it at `codex-resources/zsh/bin/zsh` when available
for the selected target.
- Added package layout validation for the optional bundled zsh resource.
- Added `InstallContext::bundled_zsh_path()` and
`InstallContext::bundled_zsh_bin_dir()` for package-layout resource
discovery.
- Threaded the packaged zsh path through config loading as the runtime
`zsh_path` for packaged installs, and removed the config/profile/CLI
override path.
- Kept the packaged default zsh override typed as `AbsolutePathBuf`
until the existing runtime `Config::zsh_path` boundary.
- Updated app-server zsh-fork integration tests to spawn
`codex-app-server` from a temporary package layout with
`codex-resources/zsh/bin/zsh`, matching the new packaged discovery path
instead of setting `zsh_path` in config.
- Switched package executable copying from metadata-preserving `copy2()`
to `copyfile()` plus explicit executable bits, which avoids macOS
file-flag failures when local smoke tests use system binaries as inputs.
## Testing
To verify that the `zsh` executable from the Codex package is picked up
correctly, first I ran:
```shell
./scripts/build_codex_package.py
```
which created:
```
/private/var/folders/vw/x2knqmks50sfhfpy27nftl900000gp/T/codex-package-pms94kdp/
```
so then I ran:
```
/private/var/folders/vw/x2knqmks50sfhfpy27nftl900000gp/T/codex-package-pms94kdp/bin/codex exec --enable shell_zsh_fork 'run `echo $0`'
```
which reported the following, as expected:
```
/private/var/folders/vw/x2knqmks50sfhfpy27nftl900000gp/T/codex-package-pms94kdp/codex-resources/zsh/bin/zsh
```

Stack created with [Sapling](https://sapling-scm.com). Best reviewed
with [ReviewStack](https://reviewstack.dev/openai/codex/pull/23756).
* #23768
* __->__ #23756
## Why
The turn loop no longer needs to decide when a `ModelClientSession`
should reset its websocket state after compaction. That reset behavior
belongs inside the model client, where the websocket cache and retry
state are owned. The repo guidance now calls this out explicitly so
future changes let the incremental request logic decide whether the
previous request can be reused.
## What Changed
- Removed the `reset_client_session` return value from pre-sampling and
auto-compact helpers in `core/src/session/turn.rs`.
- Changed compaction helpers to return `CodexResult<()>` so callers only
handle success or failure.
- Made `ModelClientSession::reset_websocket_session` private to
`core/src/client.rs`, leaving it callable only from model-client
internals.
- Added `AGENTS.md` guidance not to call `reset_client_session`
unnecessarily.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-core session::turn`
## Why
The idea here is to erase the difference between initial and followup
inputs to a turn. Followup inputs are already represented as TurnInput.
Eventual goal is not to have explicit on task input at all and pull
everything from input Q.
## What Changed
- Changes `SessionTask::run` and the erased `AnySessionTask::run` path
to accept `Vec<TurnInput>`.
- Wraps user-submitted spawn input as `TurnInput::UserInput` at the
session task start boundary.
- Updates `run_turn` to record initial `TurnInput` using the same hook
and recording path used for pending input.
- Keeps review-specific conversion local to `ReviewTask`, where the
sub-Codex one-shot API still expects `Vec<UserInput>`.
- Moves the synthetic compact prompt into `CompactTask` and starts
compact tasks with empty task input.
## Validation
- `cargo check -p codex-core`
- `just test -p codex-core -E

## Why
[Recent PR](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/22709) removed
`trace_id` from `TurnContextItem`.
## What changed
- Add to `TurnStartedEvent` so rollout consumers can correlate turns
with telemetry traces.
- Note that the branch name is out of date because I originally re-added
to `TurnContextItem`, but we decided to move it to `TurnStartedEvent`.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib
regular_turn_emits_turn_started_without_waiting_for_startup_prewarm`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
emits_warning_when_resumed_model_differs`
- `cargo test -p codex-rollout`
- `cargo test -p codex-state`
## Summary
- drop the dead legacy profile usage metric and active-profile
conversation-start fields
- update role comments so they describe provider and service-tier
preservation without legacy config-profile wording
- pair the code cleanup with the file-backed profile docs update in
openai/developers-website#1476
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `cargo test -p codex-otel`
- `cargo test -p codex-core` *(fails: existing stack overflow in
`mcp_tool_call::tests::guardian_mode_mcp_denial_returns_rationale_message`)*
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib
mcp_tool_call::tests::guardian_mode_mcp_denial_returns_rationale_message`
*(fails with the same stack overflow)*
