## Why
A local stdio MCP server can exit while its descendants remain alive. Cleaning up
only the server process can therefore leak processes after client shutdown.
## What changed
- Contain locally launched MCP servers in non-breakaway Windows job objects and
terminate the job during shutdown so descendants exit with the server.
- Preserve compatibility when job creation or assignment is unavailable by
retrying without containment and terminating an owned process handle instead.
- Use the process-group member fallback when terminating piped processes on
macOS.
## Testing
- Cover descendant cleanup and breakaway prevention for both local MCP protocol
modes on Windows.
- Cover the Windows nested-job assignment fallback and verify the suspended
process resumes before handle-based termination.

## Why
Timing out a Git metadata command must not leave helper processes running after
the command wrapper exits.
## What changed
- Run Git metadata commands in a dedicated process group on Unix and a Job
Object on Windows so timeout cleanup terminates their full process trees.
- Start Windows commands suspended, assign them to the Job Object, and then
resume them so immediate descendants cannot escape containment.
- Preserve descendants when a Git command completes normally, and retain the
existing direct-spawn fallback if Windows Job Object setup fails.
## Testing
Added cross-platform regression tests for cleanup both while the command wrapper
is running and after it exits, plus Windows coverage for immediate-child Job
Object containment.

## Why
The PTY and pipe spawn helpers now require callers to specify which file
descriptors should be inherited, following
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/13644.
## What changed
Pass empty inherited-FD slices from the Windows process-tree tests, which do
not need to preserve any file descriptors.

## Why
Terminating a Windows execution session must also stop child processes, while a
normal root-process exit must continue to allow background descendants to run.
## What changed
- Assign Windows pipe, ConPTY, and sandbox processes to job objects and terminate
the job when a session is cancelled, times out, or is explicitly stopped.
- Preserve descendants when the root process exits normally.
- Attach ConPTY and sandbox processes to their jobs atomically at creation; keep
root-process termination as a fallback where job setup is unavailable.
## Testing
Added Windows coverage for descendant termination and preservation across pipe,
ConPTY, capture, cancellation, and legacy sandbox execution paths.

## Why
Sandboxed process launch through the exec server was unsupported on Windows.
## What changed
- Add a shared native process launcher that selects the Windows sandbox session backend when required and otherwise launches PTY or pipe-based processes.
- Pass Windows permission, workspace-root, proxy, filesystem-override, and desktop settings through exec-server process preparation.
- Preserve piped stdin and inherited file descriptors across the shared launch path.
## Testing
- Verify that a remote Windows sandbox process accepts stdin while blocking a write under a read-only policy.
- Enable workspace-root sandbox tests on native Windows while continuing to skip environments that cannot emulate Windows sandbox semantics.

## Why
Windows unified-exec TTY input did not behave like the non-Windows PTY
path. ConPTY sessions could receive the wrong line ending or mishandle
backspace, especially when sending input to a foreground program through
PowerShell or cmd. The local, legacy restricted, and elevated paths also
handled this normalization separately.
## What changed
- share one stateful Windows TTY input normalizer across local, legacy
restricted, and elevated runner paths
- translate LF and split CRLF into one Windows terminal Enter, encode
backspace as DEL, and preserve UTF-8 and control bytes such as Ctrl-C
- add Windows integration coverage for Unicode input, backspace, Enter,
and PowerShell foreground-child Ctrl-C behavior
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-utils-pty` (13 tests passed; the Unicode
integration test retried once)
- the Unicode integration test passed five consecutive runs with retries
disabled
- integration coverage sends `cafeé 漢字` through cmd and PowerShell and
verifies that Ctrl-C interrupts a running PowerShell foreground child
