## Why
`codex-tools` is meant to hold reusable tool primitives, but
`ToolsConfig` had become a second copy of core runtime decisions instead
of a small shared contract. It carried provider capabilities, auth/model
gates, permission and environment state, web/search/image feature gates,
multi-agent settings, and goal availability from core into `codex-tools`
([definition](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/22dd9ad3929253ed24d7ee4f10f238e95ab25f37/codex-rs/tools/src/tool_config.rs#L97),
[stored on each
`TurnContext`](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/22dd9ad3929253ed24d7ee4f10f238e95ab25f37/codex-rs/core/src/session/turn_context.rs#L87)).
Every session/context variant then had to build and mutate that snapshot
before assembling tools.
This PR removes that master object instead of renaming it. Tool planning
now reads the live `TurnContext`, where `codex-core` already owns those
decisions, while `codex-tools` keeps only reusable primitives and a
generic `ToolSetBuilder`/`ToolSet` accumulator.
## What Changed
- Removed `ToolsConfig` / `ToolsConfigParams` from `codex-tools`; the
crate keeps the shared helpers that still belong there, including
request-user-input mode selection, shell backend/type resolution,
`UnifiedExecShellMode`, and `ToolEnvironmentMode`.
- Replaced config-snapshot planning with `ToolRouter::from_turn_context`
and a `spec_plan` pipeline over `CoreToolPlanContext`, deriving provider
capabilities, auth gates, model support, feature gates, environment
count, goal support, multi-agent options, web search, and image
generation from the authoritative turn state.
- Added generic `codex_tools::ToolSetBuilder` / `ToolSet`, plus the
small core adapter needed to accumulate `CoreToolRuntime` values and
hosted model specs.
- Added the `tool_family::shell` registration module and moved
shell/unified-exec/memory accounting call sites to read the narrow
per-turn fields directly.
- Narrowed `TurnContext` to the remaining explicit per-turn fields
needed by planning: `available_models`, `unified_exec_shell_mode`, and
`goal_tools_supported`.
- Reworked MCP exposure and tool-search setup so deferred/direct MCP
behavior is driven by the current turn rather than a precomputed config
snapshot.
- Replaced the large expected-spec fixture tests with focused
behavior-level coverage for shell tools, environments, goal and
agent-job gates, MCP direct/deferred exposure, tool search,
request-plugin-install, code mode, multi-agent mode, hosted tools, and
extension executor dispatch.
## Verification
- `cargo check -p codex-tools`
- `cargo check -p codex-core --lib`
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core spec_plan --lib`
- `cargo test -p codex-core router --lib`
## Summary
Removes the feature since this is effectively on by default in all cases
where we should use it, or can be configured via models.json.
## Testing
- [x] unit tests pass
## Why
`apply_patch` is now a freeform/custom tool. Keeping the old
JSON/function-style registration and parsing path left another way for
models and tests to invoke `apply_patch`, which made the tool surface
harder to reason about.
## What changed
- Removed the `ApplyPatchToolType::Function` variant, JSON `apply_patch`
spec, and handler support for function payloads.
- Kept `apply_patch_tool_type = freeform` as the supported model
metadata path, including Bedrock catalog metadata.
- Migrated `apply_patch` tests and SSE fixtures to custom/freeform tool
calls.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-tools -p codex-protocol -p codex-model-provider`
- `cargo test -p codex-core tools::handlers::apply_patch --lib`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
apply_patch_tool_executes_and_emits_patch_events`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --test all
apply_patch_reports_parse_diagnostics`
- `cargo test -p codex-exec test_apply_patch_tool`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `just fix -p codex-tools -p codex-protocol -p codex-model-provider -p
codex-exec`
## Summary
- enable `apply_patch_freeform` by default in the feature registry
## Why
- make the freeform `apply_patch` tool available by default when model
metadata does not explicitly opt into another mode
## Validation
- `just fmt`
- did not run tests

## Summary
- remove the Windows-specific unified-exec environment block from tool
selection
- keep `unified_exec` default-off on Windows unless the feature is
explicitly enabled
- normalize model-provided `shell_type = unified_exec` to
`shell_command` when the feature is disabled
- drop obsolete tests tied to the removed environment gate and keep the
feature-flag regression coverage
## Why
Now that the session/long-lived process backend is implemented for the
Windows sandbox, we don't need to hard disable it anymore. We will be
rolling out slowly using a feature gate.
## Impact
This allows manual Windows opt-in in CLI and app-backed flows while
preserving the existing default-off behavior for Windows users.

## Why
Unsupported features must fail closed and Codex must not expose
OpenAI-hosted fallback paths when the active provider cannot support
them. In practice, Bedrock should not surface app connectors, MCP
servers, tool search/suggestions, image generation, web search, or JS
REPL until those paths are explicitly supported for that provider.
This PR moves that decision into provider-owned capability metadata
instead of scattering Bedrock-specific checks across callers.
## What changed
- Adds `ProviderCapabilities` to `codex-model-provider`, with default
support for existing providers and a Bedrock override that disables
unsupported launch surfaces.
- Adds `ToolCapabilityBounds` to `codex-tools` so provider capability
limits can clamp otherwise-enabled tool config.
- Applies capability bounds when building session and review-thread tool
config.
- Routes MCP/app connector configuration through
`McpManager::mcp_config`, which filters configured MCP servers and app
connectors based on the active provider.
- Updates app-server MCP list/read paths to use the filtered MCP config.
- Adds coverage for default provider capabilities, Bedrock disabled
capabilities, and optional tool-surface clamping.
## Testing
built locally and verified that bedrock responses api now return without
errors calling unsupported tools.
## Why
This supersedes #19391. During stack repair, GitHub marked #19391 as
merged into a temporary stack branch rather than into `main`, so the
runtime-config change needed a fresh PR.
`PermissionProfile` is now the canonical permissions shape after #19231
because it can distinguish `Managed`, `Disabled`, and `External`
enforcement while also carrying filesystem rules that legacy
`SandboxPolicy` cannot represent cleanly. Core config and session state
still needed to accept profile-backed permissions without forcing every
profile through the strict legacy bridge, which rejected valid runtime
profiles such as direct write roots.
The unrelated CI/test hardening that previously rode along with this PR
has been split into #19683 so this PR stays focused on the permissions
model migration.
## What Changed
- Adds `Permissions.permission_profile` and
`SessionConfiguration.permission_profile` as constrained runtime state,
while keeping `sandbox_policy` as a legacy compatibility projection.
- Introduces profile setters that keep `PermissionProfile`, split
filesystem/network policies, and legacy `SandboxPolicy` projections
synchronized.
- Uses a compatibility projection for requirement checks and legacy
consumers instead of rejecting profiles that cannot round-trip through
`SandboxPolicy` exactly.
- Updates config loading, config overrides, session updates, turn
context plumbing, prompt permission text, sandbox tags, and exec request
construction to carry profile-backed runtime permissions.
- Preserves configured deny-read entries and `glob_scan_max_depth` when
command/session profiles are narrowed.
- Adds `PermissionProfile::read_only()` and
`PermissionProfile::workspace_write()` presets that match legacy
defaults.
## Verification
- `cargo test -p codex-core direct_write_roots`
- `cargo test -p codex-core runtime_roots_to_legacy_projection`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server
requested_permissions_trust_project_uses_permission_profile_intent`

**Disabling Image-Gen for Non-SIWC Codex Users**
We are only enabling image-gen feature for SIWC Codex users until there
comes a fix in ResponsesAPI to omit output from responses.completed, to
prevent the following issues:
1. websocket blows up due to heavier load (images) than before (text)
2. http parser streams through n^2 of n-base64 bytes (sum of base64s of
all images generated in turn) that causes long delays in
turn_completion.
## Why
`codex-core` already owns too much of the tool stack, and `AGENTS.md`
explicitly pushes us to move shared code out of `codex-core` instead of
letting it keep growing. This PR takes the next incremental step in
moving `core/src/tools` toward `codex-rs/tools` by extracting
low-coupling tool configuration and image-detail gating logic into
`codex-tools`.
That gives later extraction work a cleaner boundary to build on without
trying to move the entire tools subtree in one shot.
## What changed
- moved `ToolsConfig`, `ToolsConfigParams`, shell backend config, and
unified-exec session selection from `core/src/tools/spec.rs` into
`codex-tools`
- moved original image-detail gating and normalization into
`codex-tools`
- updated `codex-core` to consume the new `codex-tools` exports and pass
a rendered agent-type description instead of raw role config
- kept `codex-rs/tools/src/lib.rs` exports-only, with extracted unit
tests living in sibling `*_tests.rs` modules
## Testing
- `cargo test -p codex-tools`
- `cargo test -p codex-core --lib tools::spec::`
