## Why
Guardian can lose a confirmed User Messaging message from its parent context when a `PostToolUse` hook blocks the result or is cancelled. The message has already been sent and remains relevant to interpreting the user's authorization.
## What changed
Capture confirmed message text after input-rewriting hooks in shared per-call state before awaiting post-tool processing. Attach that evidence to the response metadata even when dispatch returns a blocked or aborted result, while keeping post-tool hooks cancellable. Calls cancelled before delivery confirmation contribute no message evidence.
## Testing
Extend Guardian subagent authorization coverage to verify retained messages after post-tool hook blocking and cancellation, and their absence when cancellation precedes delivery confirmation.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9abb7959980eada20d0fb5c0b3a4a8669e4cd0a3
## Why
Extension tool calls eagerly copied and converted conversation history even when the tool never read it.
## What changed
Retain a shared invocation-time snapshot and defer conversion to raw response items until `ConversationHistory::items()` is called. Cache the result across clones with `LazyLock`, and keep debug formatting from triggering materialization. Release unrelated history metadata when capturing the shared items.
## Testing
Extend the extension executor test to verify that history first read after a later turn still reflects the invocation-time snapshot, in both legacy and paginated history modes. Update the history API test to check that shared items preserve their envelopes.
GitOrigin-RevId: c737b765b7e4889735dc78e12d685d36e854570b
## Why
Guardian's retained root context appended assistant messages after user evidence and omitted questions sent through User Messaging. This could leave subagent authorization reviews with missing or misplaced conversational context.
## What changed
- Record assistant messages and function calls in the same order sequence as accepted user inputs, then merge retained review context by recorded position while prioritizing user evidence within the message budget.
- Capture bounded User Messaging text after input hooks when a send succeeds, and match it to the original call for assistant context.
- Label assistant context without a recorded position explicitly and clear parent assistant and tool positions when forking agent history.
- Clarify that recorded order does not establish delivery order or pair ordinary replies with questions; assistant messages remain untrusted context.
## Testing
Add coverage for hook-rewritten messages, failed or unconfirmed sends, queued replies with delayed tool results, ordering across resume, and removal of inherited assistant positions from forked history.
GitOrigin-RevId: ac717cf0f5efe4b05c18f2d8370dd48453ac4e35
## Why
Permanent thread deletion needs to remove persisted agent message board data even when the message board feature has been disabled.
## What changed
- Add a cleanup hook for single and batch thread deletion, invoked after reference and writer checks but before rollout removal so cleanup failures remain retryable.
- Remove the deleted roots' channels, posts, and subscriptions regardless of the current feature setting.
- Record board tombstones and check them within write transactions to prevent delayed writes from recreating deleted data.
## Testing
Add an app-server regression test that creates a board, archives its root thread, restarts with the feature disabled, and verifies that permanent deletion removes the persisted channels, posts, and subscriptions.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4ea71559a8df0814dffda23a056a9bbaf6e0a0cb
## Why
Message-board tools hardcoded the `collaboration` namespace and used a different namespace description from the multi-agent tools. This ignored custom namespace configuration and caused conflicts under strict tool collision checking.
## What changed
- Use `multi_agent_v2.tool_namespace` and the shared multi-agent namespace description for message-board tools, resolving the namespace at runtime startup.
- Support unnamespaced tool specifications when no namespace is supplied.
- Remove hardcoded `collaboration` prefixes from message-board notifications.
## Testing
Add app-server integration coverage for the default `collaboration` namespace and a configured `agents` namespace with strict collision checking enabled. Verify that both tool families are advertised together and that `get_channels` executes through the installed extension.
GitOrigin-RevId: fef7be51ea2a84bbdb6d3491606db442ed4e6ea3
## What changed
- Register the existing message-board tools with the app server through a lifecycle extension, gated on `agent_message_board`, multi-agent v2, and non-ephemeral sessions. The new feature flag is disabled by default.
- Bind tools to each agent's identity and share the SQLite-backed board across the agent tree and runtime resumes.
- Use the runtime clock for posts and deliver ID-only notifications to running agents, with tools to retrieve post contents. Skip inactive recipients without starting them or queuing notices.
- Emit a warning and leave board tools unavailable if initialization fails.
## Testing
Add runtime scenarios and a context snapshot covering feature gating without creating storage, posting and searching, active-only notifications, sharing with child agents, persistence across resume, and clock failure without channel creation.
GitOrigin-RevId: a81bd85cd372b0d122ba375ed1a1bfd3ba3a3b7c
## Why
Agent inspection needs to distinguish registered but unloaded agents from missing identities and backend failures without restoring a runtime.
## What changed
- Add inspection returning `AgentInfo` with metadata, status, and configuration for loaded agents, or metadata for unloaded agents.
- Use inspection for configuration snapshots and to capture an agent's state before interruption.
- Add `AgentInfo` accessors and share V2 error mapping between interruption and messaging tools, preserving the distinction between invalid requests and a dropped thread manager.
## Testing
Extend the V2 reload test helper to assert that inspecting a registered, unloaded agent returns `AgentInfo::Unloaded` and leaves its runtime unloaded.
GitOrigin-RevId: fa897264ff3ff3ec6cc76259d8482be55dec0c0a
## Why
Tool allowlists alone cannot express the reviewer's sandbox and shell restrictions, which previously depended on session identity. Threads need to supply these restrictions explicitly at startup.
## What changed
- Replace `AllowedTools` with `ToolPolicy`, combining an optional allowlist with managed-sandbox requirements, unified-exec requirements, and control over additional-permission arguments.
- Capture the policy once at startup and apply it during tool registration and construction, including hosted tool filtering. Later extension-state changes cannot relax it.
- Supply the reviewer policy explicitly while retaining the fallback for reviewer sessions without a supplied policy. Explicit policies take precedence over session identity; ordinary defaults preserve existing tool setup.
## Testing
Update tool-planning tests to use explicit policies and add startup coverage for additional-permission schemas, ordinary defaults, reviewer fallbacks, explicit-policy precedence, and policy capture despite later extension-state changes.
GitOrigin-RevId: 71e561d76ea24d961f5b29c7c619bdb1356c216a
## What changed
Replace `LocalAgentControl::deliver_message` with `send(SendRequest)`, accepting both user input and agent messages with captured resume configuration and turn options. Resolve target references relative to the caller's registered identity and return recipient metadata and a submission ID in `DeliveryReceipt`.
Migrate the V2 messaging tools to the new entry point and use receipt metadata for activity events. Preserve recipient reload behavior, non-waking queue-only messages, and rejection of follow-up tasks targeting the root agent.
## Testing
Update the cold-resume and sibling-reload tests to exercise `SendRequest` while checking instruction inheritance.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8fd330b8a9c3510483110ed05c4c9d3d616db237
## Why
Native `openai/userVerification` requests need to carry optional `_meta` to clients for extension-specific presentation.
## What changed
- Accept optional metadata objects with the same validation as MCP elicitation.
- Restore metadata from the MCP request context, excluding `progressToken`, and forward it through `mcpServer/elicitation/request`.
- Update protocol types, schemas, and documentation while retaining support for requests without metadata. Challenge bytes and acceptance proofs remain unchanged.
## Testing
Add coverage for metadata validation, transport context restoration, and protocol round trips. Extend MCP integration tests to check that verification metadata reaches the client.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5d04004244cf33effac675c19e543157c48d1504
## What changed
Add `tui.rendering.mermaid`, `tui.rendering.math`, and `tui.rendering.tables`, all enabled by default and independent of animation settings. Disable individual renderers to display their source instead of diagrams, Unicode math, or formatted tables.
Apply preferences to streaming and completed responses, startup previews, and session changes. When table rendering is disabled, preserve pipe syntax, cell markup, and enclosing Markdown fences. Keep HTML clipboard formatting independent of terminal rendering preferences.
## Testing
Add coverage for individual defaults, source preservation, nested table fences, session settings, and clipboard behavior. Verify incremental rendering and emitted output match completed rendering across all eight toggle combinations.
GitOrigin-RevId: 48d765eac20a82881eed94f186bf5b025ff4f0db
## Why
MCP requests requiring user input previously failed in subagents with guidance to ask the parent agent, blocking browser sign-in, form input, and interactive tool approval in the child thread.
## What changed
Remove the root-only MCP elicitation guard and `allow_user_interaction` plumbing so subagents can surface prompts and wait for responses under the existing approval policy and automatic review rules. Connector authentication can now return retry guidance after acceptance or preserve the original failure when declined.
Keep legacy tool approvals through `request_user_input` restricted to the root thread.
## Testing
Update unit and integration coverage for subagent prompt resolution, form responses, connector authentication acceptance and decline, automatic approval, strict review, and approval-policy updates on reused connections. Update the browser sign-in scenario snapshot to show the subagent continuing after an accepted response.
GitOrigin-RevId: c226fc6dfde724ed22b91dc04dd32bbc15245bee
## What changed
Use `tui.fullscreen_transcript` to opt into the fullscreen transcript, including scrolling, selection, and search. It defaults to `false`; `--no-alt-screen` and `tui.alternate_screen = "never"` still take precedence.
The new preference controls both the first frame and application startup. Boolean CLI overrides for it are allowed during daemon startup. The old `features.transcript_v2` flag is deprecated and ignored, with a notice directing users to the new setting; it does not migrate into or override the preference.
## Testing
Add coverage for default terminal scrollback, fullscreen persistence through startup, alternate-screen restrictions, daemon override validation, and independence from the deprecated flag. Update existing history and activity tests to use the new preference.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4117bf1ee548fa8d101a594f9506673d87c74c15
## What changed
Replace `tui.whimsy` with `[tui.effects]` preferences for `starfield`, `shimmer`, `welcome`, `effort`, `progress`, and `title`. Each defaults to `true` and remains subordinate to the `tui.animations` master switch.
Wire the preferences into composer effects, welcome artwork, status and loading text, progress indicators, and terminal-title animations. For example, disable shimmering text while keeping progress animations:
```toml
[tui.effects]
shimmer = false
```
Keep retired `tui.whimsy` entries loadable but ignore their value. Update the configuration schema to expose the new preferences.
## Testing
Add and extend coverage for independent shimmer and progress effects, master-switch precedence, welcome and starfield controls, terminal-title blinking, and strict configuration loading with the retired setting.
GitOrigin-RevId: 28b37ba52872133b8954543cabe9ff424147f1c5
## What changed
- Add incremental, case-insensitive literal search across transcript details, loading older history as needed. Use `F3` to start Find, or `/` in the transcript pager, and navigate matches in either direction. Closing Find restores the previous presentation and reading position.
- Add clickable activity detail controls and `F4` keyboard focus for inspecting individual activity groups in the owned transcript. Preserve expansion state as live activity becomes history.
- Expose configurable `global.find_transcript`, `global.focus_activity`, and `pager.find` bindings under `tui.keymap`. Let new defaults yield to existing custom bindings and show available completions for pending chords.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for Unicode matching, bounded scanning, paginated and changing history, selection during search, composer input isolation, activity controls, and custom shortcut conflicts.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5bcbcdfbca7c5c296c635ec9b079ccd7a908e336
## What changed
Extract shared proxy setup into `credential_snapshot_proxy()` and split POSIX startup protection and inherited credential alias checks into separate tests, each with its own temporary directory and proxy. Preserve the existing assertions.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1799526c7c649c9bacd30a8cc4fa7038e70f192d
## Why
Orphaned output mappings and pending calls from finished cells can exhaust recorder capacity, preventing fresh code mode calls from attaching complete executed tool call metadata.
## What changed
Reclaim output mappings without remaining cells when the mapping limit is reached. Under cell or pending-call pressure, evict finished cells without output mappings, invalidate their retained completion markers, and release their pending-call count. Preserve the cell being registered and keep late records until capacity pressure requires cleanup.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for preserving existing cells and late partial records under mapping pressure, and an integration test verifying that a fresh code mode call carries its executed calls, cell ID, and completion marker after orphaned mappings fill the recorder.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8894d1283a962088fbf8cad60078cc0cd07aaf17
## Why
Server version notices previously required both versions to be stable releases, leaving prerelease and local clients without notices about differing background services.
## What changed
- Use semantic version parsing to distinguish older servers from version mismatches.
- Compare stable clients against older releases, including prereleases. Compare prerelease clients by precedence within the same release line and report other release lines as different.
- Report differing versions for local clients (`0.0.0` or versions with build metadata). Ignore malformed versions.
- Show the corresponding `older than` or `different from` notice and `<` or `≠` overview indicator, while preserving `/daemon` guidance and the `show_server_version_notice` setting.
## Testing
Add version-policy tests and notice snapshots covering prerelease ordering, local builds, mismatches, and malformed versions. Add daemon tests for notice suppression and manual update guidance without scheduling an update.
GitOrigin-RevId: 29df4713a7dbcbddcf30d56995a8496e7e8d0c6a
## Why
Shared thread instructions can change after an action is generated but before Guardian reviews it. Polling the live provider during review can give the reviewer different instructions from those applied to the action.
## What changed
Initialize Guardian reviewers with the user and thread instructions captured in the review session reuse key, keeping the review tied to the applied snapshot.
## Testing
Add a regression test that updates and removes shared instructions between action generation and review in a running descendant thread. Verify that the worker picks up each change, Guardian uses the applied instructions, and instruction changes create new reviewer sessions even while ancestor threads remain idle.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4980762bc7b6646a1691a43be93c71a7dc611ec6
## Why
Subagents inherit applied instruction snapshots, so later provider updates do not reach running descendants. Hosts need an explicit way to share current thread instructions across an agent tree.
## What changed
- Add `ThreadInstructionsProvider::share_with_subagents()`, defaulting to `false`. Opted-in descendants refresh instructions at their next model-request boundary.
- Retain shared providers across root unloads and descendant reloads. Let a resumed root replace the provider for surviving descendants, or preserve their last shared instructions when it supplies a non-sharing provider.
- Keep providers scoped to their root tree and preserve snapshot-only instructions for root forks and isolated sessions, including Guardian reviews.
## Testing
Add coverage for child and grandchild instruction updates and clearing, provider replacement after root restart, lazy descendant reloads, default snapshot inheritance, and isolation between roots and Guardian sessions.
GitOrigin-RevId: 44c9fb7fe9ae1f96156bdf3c47ab6c4a81bd65e9
## What changed
- Support an optional cloud provider alongside executor plugins, refreshing its thread-scoped catalog at each regular turn when plugins are enabled.
- Use cloud connector metadata for app attribution without starting cloud-declared MCP servers.
- Scope cached catalogs to authentication and Apps availability. Retain the previous catalog on discovery failure within the same scope, clear stale catalogs on auth changes, and reject results completed under outdated credentials.
- Add a cancellable regular-task startup phase that reconciles MCP before discovery and reapplies contributor state afterward without invalidating resource caches.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for per-turn refresh, empty catalogs, discovery failures, plugin disabling, auth changes during discovery, MCP reconciliation and cancellation, and cloud app attribution alongside executor MCP tools.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8469eb109ea316e21cbc4122c52ad8000caeef03
## Why
When a selected environment is unavailable, permission fallbacks can use the turn's initial environment and workspace roots. Daemon recovery can also miss a local environment that finishes starting after the turn begins.
## What changed
- Resolve fallback permissions from thread defaults using the captured selection's workspace root URIs, including when setup is starting or has failed.
- Apply this resolution to Guardian reviews, permission instructions, and sandbox context selection.
- Capture daemon recovery from the latest step inputs and refresh environment readiness before checking recovery eligibility.
## Testing
Add regression tests for Guardian resolving project-root restrictions against an unavailable captured environment's workspace and for daemon recovery including a local environment that finishes starting during a turn.
GitOrigin-RevId: c76d83d786fdc9c444b78ecbc335b02a20805c58
## Why
Login and enterprise configuration bootstrap can fail when their endpoints are reachable only through the system proxy, before cloud configuration can enable `respect_system_proxy`.
## What changed
- Enable `features.system_proxy_fallback` by default, honor managed feature requirements, and prevent project configuration from changing it.
- Retry account discovery and cloud configuration GETs through the system proxy after connection failures or timeouts, bounding the initial request and body read to five seconds.
- Retry OAuth authorization-code exchange only on connection failures before any redirect, with a ten-second connection timeout. Reuse the successful client for the subsequent API-key exchange to avoid changing routes.
- Increase workspace discovery and cloud configuration timeouts to 15 and 20 seconds, respectively, to accommodate fallback.
## Testing
Add coverage for proxy-only browser login through the first completed turn, including cloud configuration enabling `respect_system_proxy` without a restart. Cover stalled GET bodies, preserved request headers, disabled fallback, managed requirements, and project configuration restrictions. Verify that OAuth HTTP errors, redirects followed by connection failures, and failures after sending the POST do not trigger proxy retries, while successful redirects remain supported.
GitOrigin-RevId: 854eeeac186bb4865218ce645019c1e4bff85425
## Why
Providers need to serve Codex model metadata independently of their inference endpoint. A custom inference `base_url` alone should not opt API-key sessions into remote catalog discovery.
## What changed
- Add `model_catalog_url` to provider configuration and thread-config serialization. Fetch the full catalog URL with provider authentication, headers, query parameters, and `client_version`, while preserving inference routing.
- Require an explicit catalog URL for API-key discovery with a custom base URL. Keep default OpenAI discovery on the Codex backend, and apply `api_key_model_discovery` gating to provider API keys and cached catalogs.
- Include the catalog URL in cache identity so different catalogs do not share cached metadata.
- Limit explicitly configured catalog responses to 1 MiB, reject redirects, and suppress URL and response diagnostics that could expose credentials.
## Testing
Add coverage for catalog configuration round-trips, query encoding, authentication and header reuse, cache identity and discovery gating, oversized responses, and redirect rejection without credential forwarding. Add an integration test verifying that catalog model metadata and instructions reach conversation requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7f6ac5eec257278685e1867a6bcebae6514a365a
Remove the obsolete `windows_sandbox_private_desktop` field from the
`EnvironmentConfig` initializer in the active-turn environment fallback test
so it matches the current struct definition.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4441dc8ed3d4bfcd4c1de093e829c065d323f41a
## What changed
Replace direct access to the shared rollout budget with controller methods for
recording token usage, retrieving pending reminders, and marking reminders as
delivered. Move the `SessionBudgetExceeded` check into the controller and update
session and guardian callers, preserving reminder acknowledgment after insertion
into conversation history.
## Testing
Replace the shared-budget pointer assertion with a behavioral check: recording
25 output tokens in a reviewer session leaves 75 tokens in the parent session's
budget reminder when the initial budget is 100 tokens.
GitOrigin-RevId: 003bc2b56e526787c1864c09729bbad1006e243d
Read `initial_environments` in `active_turn_environment_selections` to
return the environment selections captured at turn start.
GitOrigin-RevId: 445b52508733ef971eb6d2d7eea2b2f019542d5f
## Why
Background processes can outlive their launching turn. Their approval reviews need the originating environment's filesystem restrictions, even when the active turn uses a different environment. Remote restrictions must also be resolved using executor paths rather than the local filesystem.
## What changed
- Capture settings and environment selections together in `StepInputs`. Preserve the captured selection during active model updates while allowing environment startup to finish.
- Carry environment IDs into Guardian network and `execve` requests, and use the owning process's environment with current review settings. Refresh environment readiness for network requests that fall back to the active turn.
- Resolve remote denied paths and globs using the executor's policy context. Decline automatic approval when the request's environment is unavailable or an explicitly denied temporary directory cannot be resolved.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for active model updates retaining their environment while the next turn adopts a new selection, background approvals using their owning environment, newly ready network environments, and remote denied paths and globs, including Windows paths and missing temporary-directory metadata.
GitOrigin-RevId: b620d4b030c597a4f430fe0500864fa5469db3d4
## Why
An executor can renew its registration while retaining its Noise identity. Connection refresh must distinguish registrations even when their keys match, and a stale registry lookup must not retire a session that recovery has already renewed.
## What changed
- Track the installed session's registration and expose it through `Environment::cached_executor_registration_id()` without connecting. Publish registration changes only when the new connection is installed.
- Require both registration and executor key to match before refresh reuses a session. Retry stale lookups and prevent recovery from installing a connection after retirement.
- Pin session recovery to the original Noise key while allowing registration renewal to preserve the session and running processes.
- Expose `CodexThread::active_turn_environment_selections()` so hosts can authorize steering against the active turn's selections, including starting and failed environments, independently of later settings updates.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for registration replacement, renewal with a running process, stale refresh lookups, missing sessions, and rejection of changed Noise keys. Extend active-turn tests to check selection snapshots across settings updates, deferred startup, and turn completion.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4395bc6c57f137691887e6585f52dcc5b958101c
## What changed
- Remove the private-desktop opt-out from elevated and unelevated Windows sandbox launches.
- Remove `windows.sandbox_private_desktop` and its managed requirement and API fields. Warn users to remove the obsolete setting.
- Require a private desktop name when launching through the Windows sandbox wrapper and command runner.
## Testing
Add coverage for the obsolete-setting migration warning and update wrapper tests to verify a live private desktop is passed and a missing desktop name is rejected.
GitOrigin-RevId: c7135f8d211aac8d812180691c2c1e433d77cde4
## What changed
Return thread IDs, metadata, and status from `LocalAgentControl::list_agents` using the shared `LiveAgent` type. Move conversion to `ListedAgent` into the tool handler, preserving the `list_agents` response fields and the thread ID fallback for agents without a path.
GitOrigin-RevId: c935cf96ab2a370645a4b74e3306540fc2d168a5
## What changed
Have `Session` capture terminal child state in an `AgentTurnOutcome` and delegate delivery to `LocalAgentControl`. Move parent notification and completion activity routing into `agent/control/completion.rs`, so routing no longer takes the child's live `TurnContext`.
Preserve best-effort, queue-only parent delivery, completion activity for the initiating agent, and result tracing only after successful delivery.
GitOrigin-RevId: e06871d92c9ca8660de29f50356cf7c37f7e5199
## What changed
Add a public, object-safe `AgentControl` trait and request/response types for coordinating an agent tree independently of where its threads run. Define contracts for lifecycle operations, message delivery, status observation, execution admission, usage accounting, shared configuration, and guardian evidence.
Move shared agent types out of the local controller and export them from `codex-core`. Let `AgentExecutionGuard` own a backend-provided reservation while preserving the local limiter's release-on-drop behavior. Include `root_thread_id` in `GuardianRootSnapshot` to identify the source of authorization evidence.
## Testing
Add tests for reservation release when a guard is dropped or a turn is cancelled, and extend the guardian authorization test to assert the root thread identity. Check trait object safety at compile time.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9385c9fbfd189f08429539fd89061ef8c9efe0d9
## Why
Recording response items in an initialized thread builds a turn context without starting a turn. Running host skill discovery for that context is unnecessary.
## What changed
Use a dedicated context build mode that skips host skill discovery for history injection. Preserve full discovery for initial context creation, startup prewarming, and execution. If compaction clears the reference context during preparation, rebuild a full context before initializing history.
## Testing
Add a regression test verifying that initial injection discovers skills, subsequent injection records items without discovery, and a real turn still discovers skills and sends the selected skill body and both injected messages to the model.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4a64e04eb0f21698f9b47160bfcfe5b6d6a68554
## What changed
Add `model_post_turn_compact_threshold_percent` to trigger compaction after a final response when context usage reaches the configured percentage of the usable window or an existing auto-compaction limit. Accept values from `0` to `100`; omitted or zero disables the feature.
Skip post-turn compaction when input is pending, the turn is cancelled, or token-budget mode is enabled. Disable it for approval reviewers to avoid delaying approval completion, and record a distinct `PostTurn` analytics phase.
Buffer local post-turn summaries until compaction succeeds and require a nonempty assistant summary before replacing history. Log compaction failures without failing the completed turn, while still propagating interruptions and turn aborts.
GitOrigin-RevId: b616994175829bd83b5d7974f95dabb042a39a89
## What changed
Replace `is_retryable()` with `retry_delay(retry_count)`, which returns `None` for terminal errors and a delay for retryable errors. Prefer server advice when present; otherwise use exponential backoff with jitter. Keep `server_retry_delay()` for callers that need only the server-provided delay.
Route sampling and remote compaction errors through the shared response stream handler, which now checks retryability and obtains the delay together. Preserve server-only retry timing when the retry budget is exhausted.
## Testing
Add coverage for attempt-dependent backoff, zero-duration server advice, and terminal errors that remain non-retryable despite server advice. Update API mapping and provider tests to use the combined retry API.
GitOrigin-RevId: 903f92935e71dea043afe1fad8ccb9389471aa75
## What changed
Add `ToolLifecycleContributor::on_command_start` with `CommandStartInput` carrying the resolved command, working directory, selected executor's filesystem, and lifecycle context. Await contributors after command hooks and environment resolution so they can prepare the filesystem before `exec_command` runs, including calls from code mode.
Reserve process IDs only after preparation completes so cancelled preparation does not consume an ID. Keep deterministic process IDs from being reused after removal.
## Testing
Add tests for direct and code-mode calls that verify callbacks receive hook-rewritten commands and the executor's working directory, filesystem preparation completes before execution, and interrupted preparation prevents execution without consuming a process ID. Add a regression test for deterministic process ID reuse after removal.
GitOrigin-RevId: d10bcafcc583a6e3e8b5924d004806727e3763bb
## Why
Memory consolidation and ephemeral title generation need to use their selected request-level reasoning effort even when managed settings enable reasoning-effort overrides.
## What changed
- Exempt current and legacy memory consolidation sessions and ephemeral `thread_title` threads from reasoning-effort overrides.
- Tag temporary title threads with `thread_title` and keep them excluded from agents overview refreshes. Recap threads retain the `system` tag.
- Preserve override behavior for persisted `thread_title` threads and other ephemeral threads.
## Testing
Extend regression coverage to verify request effort, omission of effort updates from exempt workers' requests, preservation of inherited history, title thread tagging, and overview filtering.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8dbc2eb13509f9c80f90d5798a56ea33fad2a0bc
## Why
Using Responses Lite does not establish whether a model accepts reasoning-effort `configuration_update` items. Unsupported models need to use the selected request-level effort, including when resuming history containing saved updates.
## What changed
- Add `supports_reasoning_effort_updates` model metadata, defaulting to `false`.
- Require the override feature, an OpenAI provider, and explicit model support for reasoning effort updates, independently of `use_responses_lite`.
- Filter saved configuration updates from unsupported requests without changing persisted history.
- Clear the pinned effort baseline when sampling with an unsupported model so returning to a supported model establishes a fresh baseline. Compaction uses the selected effort without clearing the pin.
## Testing
Add coverage for supported models with either Responses mode, unsupported-model history filtering over HTTP and WebSocket, switching to an unsupported model and back, and compaction versus sampling pin behavior. Verify missing capability metadata defaults to `false`.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8a0fbc141964bd854dbcdd6f31e1c8e97697cf22
## Why
Identical script contents across plugin versions do not establish that the same measurement declaration applies. Resolving measurements through generic command attribution could use a different version's declaration, while shared helper paths could make attribution ambiguous.
## What changed
- Match canonical executor paths against trusted plugin identities before comparing script contents. Require an exact version match for measurements while retaining attribution across versions with matching contents.
- Keep measurement declarations bound to the selected trusted root, and allow distinct versions to coexist when extending trusted roots.
- Add `PluginMeasurementTarget` to extract an untrusted plugin/version hint from canonical remote cache paths, respecting Windows and POSIX path conventions.
- Skip executor lookups for unrelated scripts so attribution does not wait for executor provisioning.
- Increase the login unit test timeout in Bazel to `long`.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for multiple plugins and versions, canonical aliases, symlink escapes, path casing, and executor lookup avoidance. Add a remote execution integration test verifying that mismatched versions retain command attribution but receive no metrics sidecar, and matching versions use the trusted measurement declaration.
GitOrigin-RevId: d63430b37bf2de360c8d09af7f7453a5b5024d72
## Why
MXC's native host-loopback access is bidirectional, so it cannot enforce `allow_local_binding = false`. Treating an omitted setting as `false` prevents managed networking from working with the default configuration.
## What changed
- Preserve an omitted `allow_local_binding` until the executor's sandbox policy is known. Default to `true` for Windows MXC and `false` elsewhere, including remote execution.
- Reject an effective `false` for MXC managed networking after applying policy restrictions, without enabling disabled networking.
- Use the executor's resolved value for remote network approval decisions while preserving explicit controller restrictions.
- Document that local binding permits local servers and direct host-loopback connections and skips additional private-network destination checks; proxy domain rules still apply.
## Testing
Add coverage for per-executor defaults, explicit values, MXC rejection of `false`, and remote network review cleanup with the resolved policy.

## What changed
Promote `guardian_reuse_parent_compaction` to stable and enable it by default, allowing Guardian to reuse encrypted parent compaction when restarting review sessions.
## Testing
Update Guardian tests to rely on the default setting, including evidence retention after compaction and resume. Adjust cache-key assertions to verify that parent-history changes invalidate cached review sessions by default, while explicitly disabling reuse preserves the previous behavior.

## Why
On macOS, process-group signals can be denied even when individual members can be signalled. Core execution cleanup used helpers that did not retry those signals against group members.
## What changed
- Make `terminate_process_group` and `kill_process_group` use the existing member fallback on macOS, and simplify MCP and pipe callers to use the shared helpers.
- Use the saved process-group ID when escalating cancellation after the termination grace period, so this path also uses the fallback.
- Update the unsafe process-group ID test to exercise `terminate_process_group`.

## Why
Process startup can outlast the first `exec_command` yield, causing the network approval test's fixed response sequence to route a Guardian response to the parent request.
## What changed
Match mock responses by request role and call ID, and poll running sessions with `write_stdin` until final output is available. Check the allow and deny outcomes against that final output while preserving the action-routing assertions.

## Why
A grandchild's completion can arrive while the worker is completing its response, triggering an extra sampling request to drain the message. The cold root resume test previously allowed only one worker completion request.
## What changed
Match worker completion requests by the nested spawn's `function_call_output` and allow one or two requests. Scope the mock to the initial worker's lifetime and drop it before the follow-up phase.

## Why
Replaying a checkpoint into the original session can let preserved live state
mask missing checkpoint data.
## What changed
Update `guardian_checkpoint_preserves_live_context_without_storage` to restore
forked history into a fresh session with the matching guardian context mode.
Keep the existing context restoration assertions for both `Legacy` and
`ThreadOwned` modes.
GitOrigin-RevId: 211b567f6b33ffca6dc51110a208aec234004b98
## Why
Committing a Guardian review snapshot currently flushes and reloads the transcript from storage, even though the completed model context is already available in memory.
## What changed
- Build forkable checkpoints directly from live session state, preserving model history, retained Guardian context, world state, turn context, and token usage.
- Preserve compaction window metadata and MCP resource origins in the checkpoint.
- Recognize prior user turns inside compacted replacement history.
## Testing
Add round-trip checkpoint tests for legacy and thread-owned Guardian context without storage, including preservation after live history is mutated. Extend the review compaction test to assert that checkpoints do not load history from storage.

## Why
The parent could receive a Guardian decision before the review's terminal event was flushed, allowing the reviewed action to start while completion was still being saved.
## What changed
Flush the review transcript and `TurnComplete` event together before delivering completion to the parent. Clear the reviewer's active turn before delivery so the parent can immediately request another review. Skip redundant completion flushes for Guardian reviewers while retaining the existing pre-completion flush on errors and cancellation.
## Testing
Add a gated thread-store regression test covering two consecutive reviews in the same reviewer thread. Verify that each save includes `TurnComplete` and that the approved command cannot start while the save is blocked.

## Why
Credential changes can leave the in-memory model catalog associated with a different identity, causing subsequent turns to use bundled model metadata instead of the active credentials' catalog.
## What changed
- Refresh mismatched catalogs before user turns and mailbox-triggered wakeups, resolving lazy command credentials before comparing identities.
- Reuse a matching cache or fetch models with a five-second deadline covering auth resolution and cache access. Preserve fallback behavior on failure or timeout; static catalogs need no refresh.
- Recheck the active turn after discovery so an interrupted wakeup does not continue starting a turn.
## Testing
Add coverage for user and mailbox turns after credential rotation, including switching back after another identity replaces the shared catalog. Verify refreshed context windows and request behavior, fallback on discovery failure or auth timeout, and command-auth token rotation.
