## What changed
- Replace the TUI directory-trust prompt with automatic trust for local projects whose trust level is unset. Keep explicit trust settings and remote workspaces unchanged.
- Persist trust for the resolved Git or configured project root, then reload configuration so project-local settings take effect.
- Fall back to an in-memory trust override and an embedded app server when the config update cannot be persisted.
## Testing
- Cover persisted and in-memory trust, custom project-root markers, and the working directories selected by resume and fork flows.

## Why
MCP tools can be exposed directly, discovered through tool search, or called
from Code Mode. Servers need to be able to opt out of any of these surfaces
without disabling their tools everywhere.
## What changed
- Add `omit_tools_from` to MCP server configuration, accepting any combination
of `direct`, `deferred`, and `code_mode`.
- Apply the exclusions independently when building direct, deferred, and Code
Mode tool surfaces while keeping omitted tools registered for permitted uses.
- Remove client-private `_meta` fields from MCP results returned to Code Mode.
- Include the new setting in the configuration schema and MCP config
serialization.
## Testing
- Cover every exposure combination across Code Mode, Code-Mode-only sessions,
tool search, direct-only namespaces, and prefixed and unprefixed MCP names.
- Verify direct and nested execution paths, parallel-call support, config
round-tripping, and `_meta` filtering.

## What changed
- Replace the ordering enum and `include_disabled` boolean with named
`ConfigLayerStack` iterators for each precedence direction.
- Keep enabled-only iteration separate from `all_layers_*` iteration, which
includes disabled layers.
- Update config consumers to use the iterator matching their precedence and
disabled-layer requirements without allocating an intermediate `Vec`.
## Testing
- Add coverage that verifies ordering and disabled-layer filtering for all four
iterators.
GitOrigin-RevId: d14df3db4a2eae80ba97cdec246bff405e6c5f3d
## What changed
- Find the highest-precedence user layer by scanning the ordered config layers in reverse.
- Remove the cached user-layer index and its bookkeeping when constructing or updating a layer stack.
- Keep layer-order validation focused on validating ordering.
GitOrigin-RevId: e20510b868224ce25b2d2179f07d262d6b36e976
## What changed
- Accept two-stroke bindings such as `ctrl-x ctrl-s` in TUI keymap configuration while preserving arrays as alternative bindings.
- Route chords through the active TUI context, show pending and configured chord hints, and cancel pending chords on `esc`, context changes, or a one-second timeout.
- Extend `/keymap` to capture, add, replace, and display key chords.
- Reject chords that conflict with active single-key bindings, overlapping-context chords, or reserved terminal shortcuts.
## Testing
- Add coverage for chord parsing, validation, matching, timeout and cancellation behavior, context dispatch, key capture, and rendered shortcut hints.
GitOrigin-RevId: dfdede03f518d4936ad8621ebf5537026f2b282e
## What changed
- Route skill dependency updates through the shared `codex-core` `ConfigEditsBuilder`.
- Remove the duplicate MCP config writer and its tests from `codex-config`, while retaining MCP config loading there.
GitOrigin-RevId: cdce84c8353514529126156750433e859b78be3b
## Why
MCP servers running in an executor must not reuse host-owned OAuth credentials,
even when they have the same configured server name and URL.
## What changed
- Derive environment-scoped credential names for executor-owned MCP servers and
use them consistently for login, logout, authentication, and connection setup.
- Mark executor-owned entries in the file credential store and fail closed when
loading or saving an entry could cross the host/executor boundary.
- Preserve compatibility with existing local OAuth credentials, including local
server names that overlap the new reserved prefixes.
## Testing
- Extend the executor MCP integration test to verify that executor requests use
the executor token, never send the host token, and persist both credentials
separately.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4fc92d0533b0fe2e0df34f6d47b81e3d20d07807
## Why
`features.multi_agent_v2` can be represented as either a legacy boolean toggle
or a table with an `enabled` field and nested settings. Layering or editing
configs that mix these forms could replace one form with the other and discard
the enabled state or nested settings.
## What changed
- Normalize boolean toggles to the table's `enabled` field when merging config
layers, applying CLI overrides, and editing user or profile config.
- Preserve nested multi-agent settings when toggling the feature, while keeping
ordinary replacement semantics for unrelated paths.
- Attribute normalized `enabled` values to the layer that supplied the boolean
toggle so config write results report overrides correctly.
## Testing
Added coverage for layered config, CLI overrides, config edits, app-server
writes, and origin metadata using both root and profile feature paths.
GitOrigin-RevId: 38b248c949b9ea5d6340a73d754f91c1834ac486
## What changed
- Allow `features.code_mode_host` to use a configuration table with
`disable_in_process_fallback`. When enabled, failure to start the standalone
host is returned as tool output instead of falling back to embedded V8.
- Preserve the existing fallback behavior by default and continue accepting the
boolean feature toggle.
- Limit displayed host paths in spawn errors to 512 bytes while retaining the
executable-bearing suffix and valid UTF-8 boundaries.
## Testing
- Cover boolean and table-based feature configuration, fallback-disabled host
failures, and bounded ASCII and UTF-8 error paths.
GitOrigin-RevId: ab3d014e79054c2f8beef9a658915f01cca197b2
## What changed
- Add a default-on `tools.update_plan.enabled` configuration option.
- Omit `update_plan` from the visible and registered tool sets when the option is disabled.
## Testing
- Cover configuration resolution and tool registration for the disabled setting.
GitOrigin-RevId: c13aa463a6911956fca9f0ef5b74841b543798c4
## What changed
- Parse the `browser_use.disable_auto_review` setting from layered
`requirements.toml` configuration.
- Return the setting as `browserUse.disableAutoReview` from
`configRequirements/read` and publish it in the generated JSON and TypeScript
schemas.
## Testing
- Add an app-server RPC test covering the Browser Use requirement.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5749d5bc17bcc5b582bf7ed59b8e5b72d6c8f7fc
## What changed
- Add a configurable `toggle_side_conversation` TUI action, bound to `ctrl-/` by default, to switch between a side conversation and its parent without closing either.
- Show the active binding in the footer and distinguish switching from closing with `ctrl-c`.
- Allow starting a replacement side conversation from the parent, while cleaning up the previous side thread and preserving it if cleanup fails.
- Clean up retained side conversations when shutting down the current thread.
## Testing
- Cover shortcut remapping, conflicts, and compatibility with existing `ctrl-/` and `ctrl-7` bindings.
- Cover side-thread replacement and footer states for both the parent and side conversation.
GitOrigin-RevId: a621c21e1c45ba73197d59750b2e05efa5ee1081
## What changed
- Accept a table form of `features.non_prefixed_mcp_tool_names` with an
optional `server_names` list while preserving the existing boolean form.
- Omit the legacy `mcp__` namespace prefix only for tools from selected MCP
servers. When no server list is provided, the enabled feature continues to
omit the prefix for every server.
- Cover configuration resolution, tool normalization, and an MCP stdio
round trip with selected servers.
GitOrigin-RevId: bdfb7ac54226de5051f06610e2c6b78b23912ef0
## What changed
- Add the `supports_standalone_web_search` model-provider setting, defaulting to `false`, and preserve it in remote thread configuration.
- Enable the standalone `web.run` tool for opted-in custom Responses providers when web search is enabled and the runtime provider supports it.
- Send standalone search requests through the custom provider's endpoint and authentication.
## Testing
- Cover opt-in, default-off, disabled-search, and unsupported-provider behavior.
- Verify custom-provider search request routing and authorization through the app server.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7c5f96b0ce924ad2b9715c45bfc635e89fc39cff
## What changed
- Apply managed values for `sqlite_home`, `log_dir`, `model_catalog_json`,
`check_for_update_on_startup`, `allow_login_shell`, the report-submission
opt-in, and `windows.sandbox_private_desktop` to the runtime configuration,
with source-aware warnings when they override configured values.
- Expose these values through `configRequirements/read`, return them from
`config/read`, include them in session config locks, and show their sources in
the TUI config debug view.
- Reject app-server writes that overlap an exact managed requirement with
`configRequirementReadonly` while leaving unrelated sibling keys writable.
## Testing
- Cover runtime overrides, requirement API mapping, config reads and writes,
session lock serialization, cross-platform path URIs, and debug output.
GitOrigin-RevId: d4e23b6fd7775c1a6dfe2eab313cdcee50b07081
## What changed
- Add `shell_environment_policy.filters`, mapping environment-variable patterns to `include` or `exclude`, while continuing to accept the legacy `exclude` and `include_only` arrays.
- Merge filter keys case-insensitively across config layers so higher-precedence entries can override individual patterns. Switching representations replaces the other representation instead of combining them.
- Reject mixed, duplicate, or malformed filter definitions in enabled layers, config writes, and reloads, while retaining the previous session configuration when a reload is invalid.
- Make config-manager reads and writes representation-aware and preserve existing formatting when updating individual policy values.
## Testing
Add coverage for parsing, schema constraints, layered merging, validation and diagnostics, config writes, override metadata, and invalid session reloads.
GitOrigin-RevId: e15464bca53e6e7ef31fcc97537fda60ed5d670a
## What changed
- Remove the `spawn_agents_on_csv` and `report_agent_job_result` tools and their agent-job runtime and state models.
- Drop the legacy `agent_jobs` and `agent_job_items` tables during state database migration.
- Keep `features.enable_fanout` and `agents.job_max_runtime_seconds` accepted as no-op compatibility settings while omitting them from the generated configuration schema.
## Testing
- Verify upgrades remove both legacy agent-job tables.
- Verify the removed feature and configuration keys still parse without taking effect.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8cc3337da78c67162229f02f40a747f503542646
## What changed
- Add `additionalContextLimit` to command hook configuration for events that can emit `additionalContext`.
- Apply the limit independently to each hook's context before it is sent to the model. Unset values retain the 2,500-token default, while `0` disables spilling for that hook.
- Expose configured limits through app-server hook and requirements responses, and show them in the TUI hooks browser.
## Testing
- Cover JSON and TOML parsing, discovery and hashing, per-hook spilling behavior, app-server responses, and TUI rendering.
GitOrigin-RevId: 55ddc2dbbdf9067dceee3e1968c03617bbf6bcea
## What changed
- Remove unused APIs and test helpers across the Rust workspace.
- Route Linux sandbox test setup through the shared exec request path.
- Drop dependencies that became unnecessary after the cleanup.
GitOrigin-RevId: 48fd9b2b1575bad7add0819786b4d8ec88d8486f
## What changed
- Add `tui.resume_cwd` with `current` and `session` modes for resume and fork flows.
- Let users persist either mode directly from the working-directory prompt, while preserving one-time choices when no preference is configured.
- Apply the preference consistently during startup and in-app resume, honor explicit `--cd` overrides, and reject unsupported or unavailable directory choices with a clear error.
## Testing
- Cover configuration parsing and persistence, prompt behavior, startup and in-app flows, session metadata fallback, and remote workspace constraints.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7bf144c4b8c55bdb868cc8a71caf397c7740451a
## What changed
- Add the `SessionEnd` hook event to hook configuration, protocol schemas, analytics, and the hooks browser.
- Run matching hooks for root threads during shutdown, including app-server archive, delete, idle unload, and graceful shutdown. Flush the transcript first and provide the session ID, transcript path, working directory, and `reason: "other"`.
- Keep teardown bounded: hook output is advisory, the default timeout is one second, configured timeouts are capped at three seconds, and async hooks run synchronously with a warning.
## Testing
- Cover transcript availability, matcher selection, timeout normalization, ignored control output, subagent exclusion, archive/delete ordering, and graceful shutdown of multiple loaded threads.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5d19a658677a137caf836ed5042dcb43f5eb6d1a
## What changed
- Allow the built-in `amazon-bedrock` provider to override `base_url`, `auth`,
and `http_headers` in addition to its AWS profile and region.
- Use command-based bearer authentication and configured endpoints without
applying AWS request signing, while retaining regional endpoint resolution
for the default Bedrock configuration.
- Replace the Bedrock account `credentialSource` enum with the
`usesCodexManagedCredentials` boolean so command-authenticated and other
externally managed configurations are reported consistently.
## Testing
- Cover configuration merging and validation, command-authenticated proxy
requests with custom headers, and account reporting for managed and external
credentials.
GitOrigin-RevId: d1acbe602060470583b5e12f8d304bee5be46f4c
## What changed
- Apply `agents.default_subagent_model` and
`agents.default_subagent_reasoning_effort` when a spawn request does not
provide explicit values, including agent job workers.
- Allow full-history forks to use configured defaults or explicit model and
reasoning-effort overrides while retaining the parent conversation context.
- Preserve the selected model and reasoning effort when an agent role does not
override them.
## Testing
- Cover configured defaults, explicit override precedence, full-history forks,
role application, and agent job workers.
GitOrigin-RevId: b1efa8c9abeee82355088fceef57560433144595
## Why
The `agent_type` argument is only useful when agent roles are configured. Avoid
advertising an inapplicable override in the model-visible `spawn_agent` schema.
## What changed
- Include `agent_type` in the V1 and V2 spawn tools only when configured roles
are available.
- Clarify that `agent_type` is an explicit override and document its interaction
with context forking.
- Remove the unused `agents.support_agent_type` configuration field.
## Testing
- Add coverage for hiding `agent_type` without roles and exposing it when a role
is configured.
GitOrigin-RevId: 32e0f123b15f317e9cdb71774029375bc073d9ad
## What changed
- Add `agents.enabled` as a user override for multi-agent tools while keeping an enabled `features.multi_agent_v2` authoritative.
- Rename the shared spawned-thread limit to `agents.max_concurrent_threads_per_session`, retain `agents.max_threads` as an alias, and apply the setting to both multi-agent backends.
- Add reserved subagent model, reasoning effort, and agent-type settings to the config surface and persist all resolved agent settings in config locks.
- Show the resolved `[agents]` values in TUI debug-config output.
## Testing
- Cover config loading, legacy alias normalization across merged layers, backend-selection precedence, V2 concurrency, and debug output.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2957c954a2e1aef51592768dbbccd56c4bf8f118
## What changed
- Remove the standalone network proxy config loader, its mtime-based reloader, and their tests.
- Remove the helper exports and MITM action-reference validator used only by that loader.
GitOrigin-RevId: 60895fb4e3461e8c3f19db70869050410a4f5f07
## Why
Windows firewall enforcement is tied to the logon-user sandbox identities. Proxy-enforced commands therefore need the elevated backend even when the configured sandbox mode is the default restricted-token mode.
## What changed
- Select the elevated Windows sandbox backend whenever a command uses the managed network proxy.
- Remove configuration and startup checks that required users or managed requirements to select the elevated sandbox explicitly.
- Start and expose managed network proxy state consistently on Windows.
## Testing
- Verify that proxy enforcement selects the elevated backend for the restricted-token sandbox mode.
GitOrigin-RevId: e01ac052587721c468a8fbcf4e2c7c5a185a3e05
## Why
Network proxy enforcement on Windows requires the elevated sandbox backend. Silently selecting that backend for an unelevated configuration makes the effective sandbox differ from the configured mode.
## What changed
- Reject enabled network proxy configurations on Windows unless managed requirements allow only the elevated sandbox and `windows.sandbox` resolves to `"elevated"`.
- Preserve the configured sandbox backend during execution and validate proxy compatibility at config loading, sandbox setup, and process launch boundaries.
- Defer this validation during cloud-config bootstrap so authoritative managed requirements can be loaded first.
- Do not start or expose disabled Windows proxies, and render transitions to disabled networking as `<network enabled="false"></network>`.
## Testing
- Cover Windows requirement and sandbox compatibility matrices, bootstrap behavior, backend selection, disabled proxy handling, and environment-context updates.
GitOrigin-RevId: bfa1dda98594e0db61883f8e7f65bd560e3453e6
## 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.

diagnostic-only Auto store drift reporting
**This PR is layer 2.**
## Why
`Auto` is keyring-first with a File fallback, but re-evaluating that
policy during transport reconstruction or persistence can make one MCP
client read from one store and later write to another. With rotating
refresh tokens, the second store may contain an older token. This layer
makes the source selected at client startup explicit and keeps that
authority stable for the client lifecycle.
## What this PR does
- Keeps `resolve_oauth_tokens_from_store_policy` as the single
configured-policy entry point and returns both credentials and the
concrete File or Keyring source that supplied them.
- Puts exact `load`, `save`, and `delete` operations on
`ResolvedOAuthCredentialStore`, making “resolve configured policy” and
“use the selected authority” distinct at call sites.
- Pins the first concrete source in `pinned_credential_store` in the
transport recipe, so initialization retries and session reconstruction
cannot re-evaluate `Auto` and adopt another store.
- Gives `OAuthPersistor` the resolved store and keeps subsequent
persistence and removal on that authority.
- Uses a typed keyring-load error to distinguish aggregate-store
coordination failures from ordinary backend failures; a coordination
failure is surfaced instead of triggering File fallback.
- Keeps login-time `Auto` behavior unchanged: prefer Keyring, fall back
to File when unavailable, and clean up legacy File state after a
successful keyring save.
- Adds structured server/backend context when fallback cleanup fails.
## Explicit decisions and non-goals
- The selection is lifecycle-local and in memory. This PR does not add a
durable backend selector, migration, reconciliation registry, or global
source of truth outside `CODEX_HOME`.
- `Auto` may choose File at the start of a later process if keyring
availability changes. Once this client resolves, a selected-store
failure is returned instead of hot-switching.
- Different `CODEX_HOME` instances remain independent even when they can
access the same Direct keyring credential.
- Cross-process refresh serialization is intentionally not part of this
layer.
## Safe stopping point
This PR can merge alone. A single MCP client no longer hot-switches
credential stores across transport rebuilds or persistence. Two
processes can still refresh the same selected credential concurrently
until layer 3.
## Review size
The net layer is 9 files, +668/−144. The production change remains
focused on store resolution and lifecycle pinning; the largest follow-up
is integration coverage that drives real session recovery.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-rmcp-client` (99 passed; 5 expected skips)
- Real-client 404 recovery coverage with different Keyring and File
tokens; captured bearer headers prove the stale File token is never sent
- Mutation check: removing the lifecycle pin makes that integration
regression fail by observing the stale File token
## Why
`NetworkProxyConfig` only wrapped `NetworkProxySettings` in a single
`network` field. That extra level made runtime callers repeat `.network`
everywhere without representing a real boundary.
## What changed
- move the managed-network fields directly onto `NetworkProxyConfig`
- collapse the matching partial-config wrapper
- update runtime callers and tests to use the direct fields
- keep the user-facing permissions/profile TOML layout unchanged
The internal serialized shape now matches the runtime type itself. This
does not change managed-network behavior or the `config.toml` shape.
## Summary
- Adds `writes` to `AppToolApproval` and exposes it through config and
app-server schemas, including
`[apps._default].default_tools_approval_mode`.
- In `writes`, tools with `readOnlyHint = true` skip approval; all other
tools prompt, including non-destructive writes and tools without
annotations.
- Prevents session or persistent approval choices in this mode so later
writes still prompt.
## Why
`auto` only prompts for risk-hinted actions, while `prompt` also
interrupts reads. Apps need a middle mode that gates writes without
prompting for declared read-only actions.
## Validation

## Why
Admins need persistent defaults for the model, reasoning effort, and
service tier shown when the Desktop App creates a new thread. These are
initialization defaults rather than runtime constraints: the App should
use them to initialize its draft while still allowing a user to make an
explicit selection.
The app-server therefore needs to expose the managed values before
thread creation without changing `thread/start` behavior for other
clients.
## What changed
- Parse `model`, `model_reasoning_effort`, and `service_tier` from
`[models.new_thread]` in `requirements.toml`.
- Compose the `models` requirements through the existing
requirements-layer precedence rules.
- Expose the resolved values through `configRequirements/read` as
`requirements.models.newThread`.
- Add the corresponding app-server protocol types and regenerate the
JSON and TypeScript schema fixtures.
- Document the new `configRequirements/read` fields in the app-server
README.
## Scope
This PR is data plumbing only. It does not apply these values during
`thread/start` and does not change thread creation for existing
app-server clients, resumed or forked sessions, internal or subagent
sessions, `codex exec`, or the TUI. A companion Desktop App change owns
draft initialization, sends the effective settings for ordinary and
prewarmed starts, and preserves explicit user changes.
## Validation
- Requirements deserialization coverage for `[models.new_thread]`
- Requirements-layer precedence coverage
- App-server API mapping coverage
- `configRequirements/read` integration coverage
- Regenerated app-server JSON and TypeScript schema fixtures
## Summary
- distinguish expired, non-refreshable stored MCP OAuth credentials from
first-time missing credentials
- carry a typed `failureReason: "reauthenticationRequired"` on the
existing `mcpServer/startupStatus/updated` notification only when user
action is required
- keep the public MCP auth-status API unchanged and regenerate the
app-server protocol schemas and documentation
## Why
An MCP server with an expired access token and no usable refresh token
currently fails startup without giving clients a reliable, typed
recovery signal.
The existing startup-status notification is the natural place to carry
this state. Its nullable `failureReason` keeps the recovery reason
attached to the failed startup transition without adding a one-off
notification. Internally, Codex distinguishes first-time login from
reauthentication and emits the reason only when the startup error itself
requires authentication.
## User impact
App clients can prompt an existing user to reconnect an MCP server when
automatic recovery is impossible by handling a failed
`mcpServer/startupStatus/updated` notification whose `failureReason` is
`reauthenticationRequired`. Starting, ready, cancelled, unrelated
failures, and first-time setup carry no reauthentication reason.

## Summary
This PR extends the existing managed `mcp_servers` identity requirement
so that one name-qualified rule can use either:
- the released exact command or URL identity;
- an exact stdio executable with an exact-length, ordered argument
matcher list; or
- a direct MCP URL matcher.
Matcher-based rules stay under the released `identity` key and use the
same `McpServerRequirement` abstraction and `mcp_servers.<server_name>`
namespace.
## Behavior
Policy activation and name qualification are unchanged:
- If `mcp_servers` is absent, ordinary configured MCP servers remain
unrestricted.
- If `mcp_servers` is present, a server needs a matching same-name
requirement.
- `mcp_servers = {}` continues to deny every configured MCP server.
- Existing exact identity requirements keep their released semantics.
Plugin-bundled MCP servers use the same requirement shapes under
`plugins.<plugin_name>.mcp_servers.<server_name>`. Top-level non-empty
rules continue to govern only ordinary configured servers; plugin rules
remain explicitly plugin-scoped. The existing globally empty
`mcp_servers = {}` plugin kill switch is preserved.
Requirements layers continue to use the existing regular TOML merge
behavior. Atomic replacement of named MCP requirements is intentionally
out of scope here and is tracked independently in #30118.
## Requirement contract
The released exact identity contract remains valid:
```toml
[mcp_servers.docs.identity]
command = "codex-mcp"
[mcp_servers.remote.identity]
url = "https://example.com/mcp"
```
Command identities continue to check only `command`; they do not inspect
arguments, `cwd`, `env`, or `env_vars`.
A command matcher uses an exact executable plus an exact-length, ordered
argument list. Each argument position supports `exact`, `prefix`, or
full-value `regex` matching:
```toml
[mcp_servers.internal_mcp_proxy.identity]
command = { executable = "company-cli", args = [
{ match = "exact", value = "mcp" },
{ match = "exact", value = "proxy" },
{ match = "exact", value = "--server" },
{ match = "regex", expression = '^https://[A-Za-z0-9-]+\.mcp\.internal\.example\.com(?::443)?(?:/.*)?$' },
] }
```
Direct streamable HTTP MCP definitions can use the same value matcher
types through `identity.url`:
```toml
[mcp_servers.internal_http.identity]
url = {
match = "regex",
expression = '^https://[A-Za-z0-9-]+\.mcp\.internal\.example\.com(?:/.*)?$',
}
```
Plugin-bundled MCP matchers use the same contract inside the
plugin-qualified allowlist:
```toml
[plugins."sample@test".mcp_servers.internal_mcp_proxy.identity]
command = { executable = "company-cli", args = [
{ match = "exact", value = "mcp" },
{ match = "exact", value = "proxy" },
] }
```
Regexes are validated while managed requirements are loaded, and regex
matching must cover the complete value. Command matchers constrain only
the executable and arguments.
## Why
Enterprise administrators need to allow MCP servers by executable and
positional-argument shape, including fixed arguments plus constrained
values such as internal MCP URLs passed to a proxy.
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `git diff --check`
- `just test -p codex-config` (198 passed)
- `just test -p codex-core mcp_servers_by_matchers --lib` (2 passed)
## Why
MCP authentication has distinct OAuth and ChatGPT-session flows.
Representing that choice as `use_chatgpt_auth` makes one flow implicit
and allows the configuration model to express the distinction only
through a boolean.
ChatGPT credential forwarding also needs a first-party trust boundary. A
configurable `chatgpt_base_url` controls routing, but must not grant an
MCP server permission to receive session credentials.
This change builds on #29733, where the boolean was introduced.
## What changed
- Replace `use_chatgpt_auth` with an `auth` field backed by the
exhaustive `McpServerAuth` enum.
- Support `auth = "oauth"` and `auth = "chatgpt"`, with OAuth remaining
the default.
- Trust only the origin derived from the existing hardcoded
`CHATGPT_CODEX_BASE_URL` when granting ChatGPT auth to an MCP server.
- Keep configured bearer tokens and authorization headers ahead of the
selected authentication flow.
- Update config writers, schema output, fixtures, and integration-test
setup to use the enum.
## Verification
Integration coverage exercises the complete streamable HTTP startup path
in two independent configurations:
- A directly constructed MCP configuration verifies that matching an
overridden `chatgpt_base_url` does not grant ChatGPT auth.
- A persisted `config.toml` containing an attacker-controlled
`chatgpt_base_url` and `auth = "chatgpt"` verifies the same boundary
through normal config parsing.
Both tests complete MCP initialization and tool listing and assert that
the full captured request sequence contains no authorization headers.
Separate integration coverage verifies that configured authorization
takes precedence over ChatGPT auth.
## Why
ChatGPT session authentication was inferred from the reserved Codex Apps
server name. That couples credential routing to Codex Apps-specific
behavior and prevents other MCP endpoints hosted by ChatGPT from
explicitly using the current session.
The opt-in also needs a clear security boundary: an arbitrary MCP
configuration must not be able to redirect ChatGPT credentials to
another origin.
## What changed
- Add `use_chatgpt_auth` to HTTP MCP server configuration, defaulting to
`false`.
- Honor the setting only when the parsed server URL has the same HTTP(S)
origin as the configured `chatgpt_base_url`; otherwise remove the
capability before startup.
- Resolve bearer tokens and static or environment-backed authorization
headers before selecting authentication, with configured authorization
taking precedence over ChatGPT session auth.
- Enable the setting for the built-in Codex Apps and hosted plugin
runtime endpoints while keeping Codex Apps caching and tool
normalization scoped to the reserved server.
- Persist the setting through MCP config rewrite paths and expose it in
the generated config schema.
- Load the current login state for `codex mcp list` so reported auth
status matches runtime behavior.
## Verification
Core integration coverage exercises the complete streamable HTTP MCP
startup path and verifies that:
- a same-origin opted-in server receives the current ChatGPT access
token;
- an explicitly configured authorization header takes precedence;
- a different-origin server completes MCP initialization and tool
listing without receiving any ChatGPT authorization header.
## Why
Config layer provenance describes how effective configuration was
assembled, so it belongs with the config loader rather than in
app-server's serialized API types.
## What changed
- Moved `ConfigLayerSource`, `ConfigLayerMetadata`, and `ConfigLayer`
ownership into `codex-config`.
- Kept app-server's wire payloads unchanged and added explicit
conversions at the app boundary.
- Removed lower-level app-server-protocol dependencies from config
consumers.
## Stack
This is PR 3 of 6, stacked on [PR
#29721](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/29721). Review only the
delta from `codex/split-auth-domain-types`. Next: [PR
#29723](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/29723).
## Validation
- `codex-config` coverage passed.
- App-server config-manager and config RPC coverage passed.
## Why
Managed deployments need a mergeable way to declare which marketplace
sources Codex may use. An enterprise-keyed TOML table avoids array merge
ambiguity and lets every requirements layer use the existing config
precedence rules without a marketplace-specific merger.
## Requirements shape
```toml
[marketplaces]
restrict_to_allowed_sources = true
[marketplaces.allowed_sources.company_plugins]
source = "git"
url = "https://github.com/example/company-plugins.git"
ref = "main"
[marketplaces.allowed_sources.internal_git]
source = "host_pattern"
host_pattern = "^git\\.example\\.com$"
[marketplaces.allowed_sources.local_plugins]
source = "local"
path = "/opt/company/codex-plugins"
```
`restrict_to_allowed_sources` follows normal scalar precedence.
`allowed_sources` follows normal recursive TOML table merge behavior:
distinct keys accumulate and fields under the same key use normal layer
precedence. The final `source` value later selects which fields the
marketplace admission policy interprets.
The raw rule fields remain optional while requirements layers are
composed, so a higher-priority layer can override only `ref`, `url`, or
another individual field. Source-specific validation and normalization
intentionally belong to the marketplace admission layer, not
requirements merging.
This initial shape includes `git`, `host_pattern`, and `local` sources.
It does not add npm or path-pattern rules.
## What changed
- Add the marketplace requirements TOML shape to
`ConfigRequirementsToml`, `ConfigRequirementsWithSources`, and
`ConfigRequirements`.
- Carry marketplace requirements through the existing regular
requirements merge path.
- Keep allowed-source entries as raw partial tables for downstream
policy interpretation.
- Cover partial same-key overlays, source changes, unknown fields, and
unmodified local paths.
This PR defines and composes the requirements only. Source admission is
implemented by the next PR in the stack.
## Stack
This is PR 1 of 3. #29753 adds source admission on top of this PR; draft
#29691 will add runtime enforcement after it is rebased later.
## Test plan
- `just test -p codex-config marketplace_`
## Why
Remote stdio MCP servers can run in an environment whose path convention
differs from the Codex host. A Windows cwd such as
`C:\Users\openai\share` is absolute for the executor but was rejected by
a POSIX orchestrator.
Built on #29501, now merged, which only clarifies the host-native
`PathUri` constructor name.
## What changed
- Deserialize MCP cwd values as `LegacyAppPathString` so config does not
apply host path rules.
- Interpret that spelling as host-native for local launches and convert
it to `PathUri` at executor launch.
- Skip host filesystem and command resolution checks for remote stdio in
`codex doctor`.
- Add host-independent config and executor-boundary coverage using the
foreign path convention for each test platform.

## Why
The token-budget feature reports coarse remaining-context milestones,
but it does not give the model a configurable wrap-up prompt before
automatic compaction. A strict threshold-crossing check can also miss
resumed or reconfigured windows that are already inside the threshold.
## What changed
- Add structured `[features.token_budget]` configuration for an absolute
`reminder_threshold_tokens` and bounded `reminder_message_template`;
`{n_remaining}` is expanded when the reminder is delivered.
- Compute remaining tokens against the next effective auto-compaction
boundary, including scoped `body_after_prefix` accounting and the full
context-window limit.
- Make reminder delivery level-triggered before and after sampling, with
one-shot state owned by `AutoCompactWindow` and re-armed on compaction,
`new_context`, restore, or history replacement.
- Leave the existing initial full-window token-budget context, 25/50/75%
notices, and token-budget tools unchanged.
- Persist the resolved feature configuration in the session config lock
and regenerate the config schema.
## Validation
- `just test -p codex-core token_budget`
- `just test -p codex-core
token_budget_reminder_emits_after_crossing_compaction_threshold`
- `just test -p codex-core auto_compact_window`

- `just test -p codex-features`
- `just test -p codex-config`
## Why
Orchestrator-provided skills and Codex Apps MCP tools add model-visible
instructions, resources, and tools beyond the local workspace. Hosts
need config-level switches to disable those orchestrator-owned surfaces
independently, without disabling regular skills or regular MCP servers.
## What changed
- Adds `[orchestrator.skills].enabled` and `[orchestrator.mcp].enabled`
config entries, both defaulting to `true`.
- Includes the new settings in `config.schema.json` and in the config
lock so resolved thread configuration preserves the same orchestrator
exposure decisions.
- Threads `orchestrator.skills.enabled` through the app-server skills
extension so disabled orchestrator skills do not expose the `skills`
namespace or inject orchestrator skill context.
- Gates Codex Apps MCP exposure, app instructions, and app auth
eligibility on `orchestrator.mcp.enabled` while leaving non-Codex-Apps
MCP tools available.
- Updates the thread-manager sample config to disable both
orchestrator-owned surfaces.
## Verification
- Added config parsing, loading, defaulting, and schema coverage for the
new settings.
- Added MCP exposure coverage that `orchestrator.mcp.enabled = false`
removes Codex Apps tools while preserving regular MCP tools.
- Added app-server coverage that `orchestrator.skills.enabled = false`
prevents orchestrator skill tools, prompts, and resource reads from
reaching the model turn.
## Summary
- Add `web_search = "indexed"` alongside `disabled`, `cached`, and
`live`.
- Use that same resolved mode for both hosted and standalone web search.
- For hosted search, send `index_gated_web_access: true` with external
web access enabled only when `indexed` is selected.
- For standalone search, preserve the existing boolean wire values for
existing modes (`cached` maps to `false` and `live` to `true`) and send
`"indexed"` only for `indexed`; `disabled` keeps the tool unavailable.
- Carry the mode through managed configuration requirements and
generated schemas.
## Why
Indexed search provides a middle ground between cached-only search and
unrestricted live page fetching. Search queries can remain live while
direct page fetches are limited to URLs admitted by the server.
The existing `web_search` setting remains the single source of truth, so
hosted and standalone executors cannot drift into different access
modes. Without an explicit `indexed` selection, the existing
model-visible tool and request shapes are unchanged.
```toml
web_search = "indexed"
[features]
standalone_web_search = true
```
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- `just test -p codex-api` (`126 passed`)
- `just test -p codex-web-search-extension` (`7 passed`)
- `just test -p codex-core

- Focused configuration, hosted request, standalone request, and
managed-requirement coverage is included in the PR; remaining suites run

## Summary
- Remove the realtime `architecture` selector from core protocol,
app-server protocol, config parsing, generated schemas, and callers.
- Always create WebRTC realtime calls with the AVAS query params:
`intent=quicksilver&architecture=avas`.
- Keep direct websocket realtime behavior on the existing config/default
path, while WebRTC starts without an explicit version now default to
realtime v1 because AVAS requires v1.
## Notes
- WebRTC realtime now means AVAS. If a caller explicitly asks to start
WebRTC with realtime v2, Codex rejects that request because the AVAS
WebRTC path only supports realtime v1. Websocket realtime is separate
and can still use realtime v2.
- The old `[realtime] architecture = "realtimeapi" | "avas"` config knob
is removed. Local configs that still set it will need to delete that
line.
- Some app-server tests that were only trying to exercise realtime v2
protocol behavior now use websocket transport, because WebRTC is
intentionally locked to AVAS/v1. Separate WebRTC tests cover the AVAS
query params, v1 startup, SDP flow, and sideband join.
## Validation
- Merged fresh `origin/main` at `83e6a786a2`.

## What
This PR defines the structured configuration contract for shared rollout
token budgets (across ALL agent threads under 1 rollout).
```toml
[features.rollout_budget]
enabled = true
limit_tokens = 100000
reminder_interval_tokens = 10000
sampling_token_weight = 1.0
prefill_token_weight = 0.1
```
The reminder interval defaults to 10% of the rollout limit. Sampling and
prefill weights default to `1.0`.
## Scope
This PR only defines and validates configuration. It does not track
usage, inject reminders, or stop a rollout. Accounting and reminders are
implemented in the stacked follow-up #28494.
The existing `token_budget` feature remains unchanged. `rollout_budget`
has its own feature key and configuration type.
## Tests
The config test verifies that the structured fields resolve into
`RolloutBudgetConfig` and do not enable the existing `token_budget`
feature.
Local checks:
- `just write-config-schema`
- `just test -p codex-core load_config_resolves_rollout_budget`
- `cargo check -p codex-thread-manager-sample`
- `git diff --check`
The full workspace test suite was not run locally.
## Summary
Introduces the default-off `respect_system_proxy` feature flag used to
gate first-class system PAC/proxy support for Codex-owned native
clients.
With the feature disabled or absent, behavior remains unchanged. This PR
establishes the configuration and managed-requirement surface; proxy
discovery and request routing are implemented by follow-up PRs.
## Configuration
User configuration uses the standard boolean feature form:
```toml
[features]
respect_system_proxy = true
```
Managed feature requirements use the corresponding boolean key. The
effective runtime configuration is exposed as a boolean and defaults to
`false`.
## Implementation
- Registers `respect_system_proxy` as an under-development, default-off
feature.
- Resolves user configuration and managed feature requirements into
`Config.respect_system_proxy`.
- Provides bootstrap resolution for startup paths that must evaluate the
feature before full configuration loading completes.
- Uses the standard feature CLI and config-editing behavior.
- Excludes `features.respect_system_proxy` from project-local
configuration.
- Updates the generated configuration schema.
## End-user behavior
- No networking behavior changes when the feature is absent or disabled.
- Enabling the feature makes the boolean available to the native
proxy-routing implementation in follow-up PRs.
- Repository-local configuration cannot enable the feature.
## Test coverage
Covers scalar configuration and CLI override resolution, managed
requirement constraints, bootstrap resolution, and project-local
filtering.
