Fixes#8214 by removing the '--staged' flag from the undo git restore
command. This ensures that while the working tree is reverted to the
snapshot state, the user's staged changes (index) are preserved,
preventing data loss. Also adds a regression test.

We were assembling the skill roots in two different places, and the
admin root was missing in one of them. This change centralizes root
selection into a helper so both paths stay in sync.
## Description
Introduced `ExternalSandbox` policy to cover use case when sandbox
defined by outside environment, effectively it translates to
`SandboxMode#DangerFullAccess` for file system (since sandbox configured
on container level) and configurable `network_access` (either Restricted
or Enabled by outside environment).
as example you can configure `ExternalSandbox` policy as part of
`sendUserTurn` v1 app_server API:
```
{
"conversationId": <id>,
"cwd": <cwd>,
"approvalPolicy": "never",
"sandboxPolicy": {
"type": ""external-sandbox",
"network_access": "enabled"/"restricted"
},
"model": <model>,
"effort": <effort>,
....
}
```
https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/8235 introduced `ConfigBuilder` and
this PR updates all call non-test call sites to use it instead of
`Config::load_from_base_config_with_overrides()`.
This is important because `load_from_base_config_with_overrides()` uses
an empty `ConfigRequirements`, which is a reasonable default for testing
so the tests are not influenced by the settings on the host. This method
is now guarded by `#[cfg(test)]` so it cannot be used by business logic.
Because `ConfigBuilder::build()` is `async`, many of the test methods
had to be migrated to be `async`, as well. On the bright side, this made
it possible to eliminate a bunch of `block_on_future()` stuff.
Historically, `accept_elicitation_for_prompt_rule()` was flaky because
we were using a notification to update the sandbox followed by a `shell`
tool request that we expected to be subject to the new sandbox config,
but because [rmcp](https://crates.io/crates/rmcp) MCP servers delegate
each incoming message to a new Tokio task, messages are not guaranteed
to be processed in order, so sometimes the `shell` tool call would run
before the notification was processed.
Prior to this PR, we relied on a generous `sleep()` between the
notification and the request to reduce the change of the test flaking
out.
This PR implements a proper fix, which is to use a _request_ instead of
a notification for the sandbox update so that we can wait for the
response to the sandbox request before sending the request to the
`shell` tool call. Previously, `rmcp` did not support custom requests,
but I fixed that in
https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/rust-sdk/pull/590, which made it
into the `0.12.0` release (see #8288).
This PR updates `shell-tool-mcp` to expect
`"codex/sandbox-state/update"` as a _request_ instead of a notification
and sends the appropriate ack. Note this behavior is tied to our custom
`codex/sandbox-state` capability, which Codex honors as an MCP client,
which is why `core/src/mcp_connection_manager.rs` had to be updated as
part of this PR, as well.
This PR also updates the docs at `shell-tool-mcp/README.md`.
