## Summary
Allow the user to approve a request_permissions_tool request with the
condition that all commands in the rest of the turn are reviewed by
guardian, regardless of sandbox status.
## Testing
- [x] Added unit tests
- [x] Ran locally
## Why
While debugging the Windows stack overflows we saw in
[#13429](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/13429) and then again in
[#18893](https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/18893), I hit another
overflow in
`tools::handlers::multi_agents::tests::tool_handlers_cascade_close_and_resume_and_keep_explicitly_closed_subtrees_closed`.
That test drives the legacy multi-agent spawn / close / resume path. The
behavior was fine, but several thin async wrappers were still inlining
much larger `AgentControl` futures into their callers, which was enough
to overflow the default Windows stack.
## What
- Box the thin `AgentControl` wrappers around `spawn_agent_internal`,
`resume_single_agent_from_rollout`, and `shutdown_agent_tree`.
- Box the corresponding legacy `multi_agents` handler calls in `spawn`,
`resume_agent`, and `close_agent`.
- Keep behavior unchanged while reducing future size on this call path
so the Windows test no longer overflows its stack.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib
tools::handlers::multi_agents::tests::tool_handlers_cascade_close_and_resume_and_keep_explicitly_closed_subtrees_closed
-- --exact --nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core` (this still hit unrelated local
integration-test failures because `codex.exe` / `test_stdio_server.exe`
were not present in this shell; the relevant unit tests passed)
### Why
The RMCP layer needs a Streamable HTTP client that can talk either
directly over `reqwest` or through the executor HTTP runner without
duplicating MCP session logic higher in the stack. This PR adds that
client-side transport boundary so remote Streamable HTTP MCP can reuse
the same RMCP flow as the local path.
### What
- Add a shared `rmcp-client/src/streamable_http/` module with:
- `transport_client.rs` for the local-or-remote transport enum
- `local_client.rs` for the direct `reqwest` implementation
- `remote_client.rs` for the executor-backed implementation
- `common.rs` for the small shared Streamable HTTP helpers
- Teach `RmcpClient` to build Streamable HTTP transports in either local
or remote mode while keeping the existing OAuth ownership in RMCP.
- Translate remote POST, GET, and DELETE session operations into
executor `http/request` calls.
- Preserve RMCP session expiry handling and reconnect behavior for the
remote transport.
- Add remote transport coverage in
`rmcp-client/tests/streamable_http_remote.rs` and keep the shared test
support in `rmcp-client/tests/streamable_http_test_support.rs`.
### Verification
- `cargo check -p codex-rmcp-client`

## Why
`approvals_reviewer` now uses `auto_review` as the canonical config/API
value after #18504, but the Rust enum variant and nearby helper/test
names still used `GuardianSubagent` / guardian approval wording. That
made follow-up code and reviews confusing even though the external value
had already moved to Auto-review.
## What changed
- Renamed `ApprovalsReviewer::GuardianSubagent` to
`ApprovalsReviewer::AutoReview`.
- Updated protocol, app-server, config, core, TUI, exec, and analytics
test callsites.
- Renamed nearby helper/test names from guardian approval wording to
Auto-review wording where they refer to the approvals reviewer mode.
- Preserved wire compatibility:
- `auto_review` remains the canonical serialized value.
- `guardian_subagent` remains accepted as a legacy alias.
This intentionally does not rename the `[features].guardian_approval`
key, `Feature::GuardianApproval`, `core/src/guardian`, analytics event
names, or app-server Guardian review event types.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-protocol
approvals_reviewer_serializes_auto_review_and_accepts_legacy_guardian_subagent`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol
approvals_reviewer_serializes_auto_review_and_accepts_legacy_guardian_subagent`
- `cargo test -p codex-config approvals_reviewer`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui update_feature_flags`
- `cargo test -p codex-core permissions_instructions`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui permissions_selection`
Fixes#16246.
## Why
`exec_command` already emits `PreToolUse`, but long-running unified exec
commands that finish on a later `write_stdin` poll could miss the
matching `PostToolUse`. That left the Bash hook lifecycle inconsistent,
broke expectations around `tool_use_id` and `tool_input.command`, and
meant `PostToolUse` block/replacement feedback could fail to replace the
final session output before it reached model context.
This keeps the fix scoped to the `exec_command` / `write_stdin`
lifecycle. Broader non-Bash hook expansion is still out of scope here
and remains tracked separately in #16732.
## What changed
- Compute and store `PostToolUsePayload` while handlers still have
access to their concrete output type, and carry `tool_use_id` through
that payload.
- Preserve the original hook-facing `exec_command` string through
unified exec state (`ExecCommandRequest`, `ProcessEntry`,
`PreparedProcessHandles`, and `ExecCommandToolOutput`) via
`hook_command`, and remove the now-unused `session_command` output
metadata.
- Emit exactly one Bash `PostToolUse` for long-running `exec_command`
sessions when a later `write_stdin` poll observes final completion,
using the original `exec_command` call id and hook-facing command.
- Keep one-shot `exec_command` behavior aligned with the same payload
construction, including interactive completions that return a final
result directly.
- Apply `PostToolUse` block/replacement feedback before the final
`write_stdin` completion output is sent back to the model.
- Keep `write_stdin` itself out of `PreToolUse` matching so it continues
to act as transport/polling for the original Bash tool call.
- Restore plain matcher behavior for tool-name matchers such as `Bash`
and `Edit|Write`, while still treating patterns with regex characters
(for example `mcp__.*`) as regexes.
- Add unit coverage for unified exec payload construction and parallel
session separation, plus a core integration regression that verifies a
blocked `PostToolUse` replaces the final `write_stdin` output in model
context.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-hooks`
- `cargo test -p codex-core post_tool_use_payload`
- `cargo test -p codex-core
post_tool_use_blocks_when_exec_session_completes_via_write_stdin`
## Why
Resume and reconstruction need to preserve the permissions that were
active for each user turn. If rollouts only keep legacy sandbox fields,
replay cannot faithfully represent profile-shaped overrides introduced
earlier in the stack.
## What changed
This records `permission_profile` on user-turn rollout events,
reconstructs it through history/state extraction, and updates rollout
reconstruction and related fixtures to keep the field explicit.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all permissions_messages --
--nocapture`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all request_permissions --
--nocapture`

## Why
After app-server can accept `PermissionProfile`, first-party clients
should stop preferring legacy sandbox fields when canonical permission
information is available. This keeps the migration moving without
removing legacy compatibility yet.
The client side still has mixed surfaces during the stack: embedded
thread start/resume/fork and exec initial turns can derive a profile
directly from local config, while TUI remote sessions and some
turn-start paths only have a legacy/server-context-safe sandbox
projection. Those paths keep sending legacy sandbox fields rather than
synthesizing or sending lossy/local-only profiles.
## What changed
- Sends `permissionProfile` from exec and embedded TUI thread
start/resume/fork requests when config has a representable profile.
- Keeps legacy sandbox fallback for external sandbox policies, TUI
remote thread lifecycle requests, and TUI turn-start requests that do
not yet carry the active profile.
- Sends the actual config-derived `permissionProfile` for exec initial
turns instead of rebuilding one from the legacy sandbox projection.
- Stores response `permissionProfile` as optional in TUI session state
so external sandbox responses and compatibility payloads preserve
`null`.
- Updates tests for request construction and response mapping.
