## Summary
- add a `hide_rate_limit_model_nudge` notice flag plus config edit
plumbing so the rate limit reminder preference is persisted and
documented
- extend the chat widget prompt with a "never show again" option, and
wire new app events so selecting it hides future nudges immediately and
writes the config
- add unit coverage and refresh the snapshot for the three-option prompt
## Testing
- `just fmt`
- `just fix -p codex-tui`
- `just fix -p codex-core`
- `cargo test -p codex-tui`
- `cargo test -p codex-core` *(fails at
`exec::tests::kill_child_process_group_kills_grandchildren_on_timeout`:
grandchild process still alive)*

[Codex
Task](https://chatgpt.com/codex/tasks/task_i_6910d7f407748321b2661fc355416994)
Shows single-key shortcuts (y, a, n) next to approval options to make
them more discoverable. Previously these shortcuts worked but were
hidden, making the feature hard to discover.
Changes:
- "Yes, proceed" now shows "y" shortcut
- "Yes, and don't ask again" now shows "a" shortcut
- "No, and tell Codex..." continues to show "esc" shortcut
This improves UX by surfacing the quick keyboard shortcuts that were
already functional but undiscoverable in the UI.

- introduce RenderableItem to support both owned and borrowed children
in composite Renderables
- refactor some of our gnarlier manual layouts, BottomPane and
ChatWidget, to use ColumnRenderable
- Renderable and friends now handle cursor_pos()
## Summary
- Coerce Windows `workspace-write` configs back to read-only, surface
the forced downgrade in the approvals popup,
and funnel users toward WSL or Full Access.
- Add WSL installation instructions to the Auto preset on Windows while
keeping the preset available for other
platforms.
- Skip the trust-on-first-run prompt on native Windows so new folders
remain read-only without additional
confirmation.
- Expose a structured sandbox policy resolution from config to flag
Windows downgrades and adjust tests (core,
exec, TUI) to reflect the new behavior; provide a Windows-only approvals
snapshot.
## Testing
- cargo fmt
- cargo test -p codex-core

Refactor trust_directory to use ColumnRenderable & friends, thus
correcting wrapping behavior at small widths. Also introduce
RowRenderable with fixed-width rows.
- fixed wrapping in trust_directory
- changed selector cursor to match other list item selections
- allow y/n to work as well as 1/2
- fixed key_hint to be standard
