## What changed
- Preserve valid image content from completed `node_repl` Code Mode responses alongside text evidence for Guardian reviews.
- Enable multimodal evidence for models that require automatic `node_repl` review, or when both `guardian_enhanced_node_repl_transcripts` and `guardian_node_repl_transcript_images` are enabled.
- Bound retained and rendered evidence, deduplicate images already present in review history, and fall back to text-only evidence when the reviewer lacks image support or prompt capacity.
- Keep review evidence out of the parent turn input.
## Testing
- Cover feature gating, mixed text and image ordering, truncation and eviction, unsupported reviewers, prompt pressure, image detail normalization, and reused review sessions.
GitOrigin-RevId: a3e482402f7b3484401b231dadc662e6e3504fdf
## Why
Client-authored developer instructions should remain available after a context
window is compacted when `retain_client_developer_messages` is enabled.
## What changed
- Preserve annotated client-authored developer messages during remote compaction
v2 and local token-budget context resets.
- Apply the existing retained-message token budget when carrying those messages
into the new context window.
## Testing
- Cover enabled and disabled retention for remote compaction v2, manual
token-budget compaction, and mid-turn automatic compaction.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4cb3782cb86ef46458413a17a3255d0016fd675f
## What changed
- Keep the configured `approvalPolicy` when a model in
`auto_review.required_on_models` selects the `auto_review` reviewer.
- Continue downgrading full-access sessions to workspace-write and rejecting
incompatible reviewer overrides.
## Testing
- Cover supported approval policies across thread start, settings updates,
turn-time model switches, resume, and fork flows.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2bd3e2dcd46f3cadeb2fad20222cf8917c267208
## Why
The model provider does not reliably identify which curated plugin catalog is
available. ChatGPT authentication can be used with a custom provider, while an
unauthenticated session should use the API-compatible catalog regardless of its
provider.
## What changed
- Select the ChatGPT curated catalog only for authentication modes that use the
Codex backend; use the API curated catalog for API-key and unauthenticated
sessions.
- Initialize standalone plugin managers with the current authentication mode
across CLI, app-server, MCP, and external-agent migration paths.
- Preserve authentication mode while detecting and importing migrated plugins.
## Testing
- Cover catalog and skill routing across ChatGPT, API-key, unauthenticated,
Bedrock, and custom-provider configurations.
- Verify authenticated plugin migration uses the ChatGPT curated marketplace.
GitOrigin-RevId: 660a339ee8891c33aad961078d3a979242a6a166
## What changed
- Make `ThreadEnvironments` the source of truth for live environment selections and use it when building configuration snapshots, permission profiles, per-turn configuration, and MCP refresh inputs.
- Keep settings previews side-effect free while applying accepted environment updates consistently to subsequent turns.
- Move `EnvironmentConfig` into `codex-protocol` so environment ownership no longer depends on a core-only type.
## Testing
- Cover environment previews and snapshots, accepted and rejected steer updates, and active-turn environment stability.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7bcf8fb5df1215f720e4e9c419541a51a871aa5e
## Why
Transient executor disconnects could leave capability discovery and skill catalogs
stuck on a cached failure for the rest of a thread, even after the executor
reconnected.
## What changed
- Replay capability discovery after executor recovery and retry transient failures
on later requests while continuing to cache permanent failures.
- Avoid caching skill catalogs produced from failed discovery so a later step can
load the recovered catalog.
- Mark the MCP runtime dirty when recovered manifests change the projected MCP
servers, and allow discovery to be cancelled with the turn.
## Testing
- Cover same-request recovery after a disconnect and recovery on a later request.
- Cover retry classification through connection-attempt errors and skill catalog
caching after discovery recovers.
GitOrigin-RevId: a57f90844351e73ea831931f72a9ddc4e4f3335c
## What changed
- Add a shared, read-only `ConversationHistorySnapshot` capability to the extension API.
- Include the snapshot in `ToolStartInput`, preserving conversation order while excluding contextual user messages.
- Avoid acquiring a history snapshot when no tool lifecycle contributors are registered.
## Testing
- Verify snapshots share existing response items, remain stable as history changes, and filter contextual user messages.
- Verify tool-start callbacks receive the history available for successive tool calls.
GitOrigin-RevId: 822cae33781dd876ea628f104be08d8a449a4900
## What changed
Rebuild the tracing callsite interest cache after installing the test-local
subscriber so the `event_enabled!` assertion uses that subscriber's filters.
GitOrigin-RevId: d221dca4d7e7cb2ddd492a46f7a9d5c977088593
## What changed
- Capture accepted, successful `node_repl` results from Code Mode and include them as bounded, untrusted evidence in Guardian review prompts.
- Enable the enhanced transcript through `guardian_enhanced_node_repl_transcripts` or when the selected model requires automatic Node REPL review.
- Keep this evidence out of the parent model history, exclude encrypted and failed results, and avoid resending admitted evidence when a Guardian session is reused.
- Clear retained evidence and invalidate review sessions when a thread is rolled back.
## Testing
- Add unit coverage for evidence ordering, escaping, truncation, and empty responses.
- Add an integration test covering feature-disabled, feature-enabled, and model-required behavior, including filtering and review-session reuse.
GitOrigin-RevId: edc3dca5d5b88d472a492f35531ec46889a89d72
## Why
Hooks supplied as managed requirements must not be silently skipped when their
handlers cannot be loaded.
## What changed
- Fail session and app-server thread startup when an enabled managed requirement
contains an invalid matcher, an empty command, or an unsupported handler type.
- Keep load failures for ordinary managed configuration hooks as warnings, and do
not enforce managed hook requirements while the hooks feature is disabled.
## Testing
Added hook-engine, core session, and app-server coverage for valid and invalid
managed hook requirements.
GitOrigin-RevId: 91a23b0c1d85e143aba6aabe874c5274e52fc6b2
## What changed
- Add a `SecurityRiskScore` rollout item containing a category and numeric score.
- Persist the item in both thread history modes while excluding it from model context, user-visible thread history, search text, forks, and reconstructed conversation history.
- Re-export the score type from the extension API.
## Testing
- Cover serialization, persistence and loading, thread history projection, session reconstruction, append planning, and memory filtering.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1926fe366aeaa75052708a6da589f45a38eefb52
## What changed
- Add `RecoverTurnRequest` and `CodexThread::recover_turn_if_idle` to resume an interrupted regular turn with its existing turn ID and updated thread settings.
- Treat recovery separately from automatic idle work so it can resume in Plan mode without injecting an empty user message.
- Reject recovery while another turn is active without applying settings or queuing input.
## Testing
- Cover successful Plan-mode recovery, turn ID preservation, and the absence of an empty user message.
- Cover active-turn rejection and verify that it leaves settings and pending input unchanged.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2376fdc78b5d48b571633981960741ba269ab1ef
## What changed
- Resolve manifest-declared metric operations against the executor filesystem for remote plugin commands.
- Create the measurement sidecar in an executor-native, owner-private temporary directory, stream its bounded output back for validation, and clean up the directory afterward.
- Extend the exec-server protocol with the executor temporary directory and atomic private-directory creation.
## Testing
- Cover remote unified-exec measurements for foreground and background commands.
- Verify private directories use owner-only permissions on Unix and fail closed on unsupported platforms.
GitOrigin-RevId: dbbd0a84717b91237fc5728e510e18994eb46dd4
## What changed
- Add `TurnInputRequest` and typed submission results for atomically starting a turn, steering the active turn, or declining input with a specific reason.
- Expose `start_or_steer_turn`, `start_turn_if_idle`, and `steer_turn` on `CodexThread`, and migrate Core consumers to these APIs.
- Make app-server `turn/start` steer an active regular turn and return that turn's ID. Reject incompatible output schemas and non-steerable turns without applying settings or enqueueing input.
## Testing
- Cover concurrent start-or-steer submissions, accepted and rejected settings updates, output-schema compatibility, idle-start rejection, and app-server steering.
GitOrigin-RevId: dd9b5528d76ec650c019e97af420bc13190ea86a
## Why
World-state snapshots and merge patches are keyed collections of sections. Allowing
their persisted `state` field to contain any JSON value required replay code to
handle shapes that cannot represent world state.
## What changed
- Type `WorldStateItem.state` and snapshot patches as JSON object maps.
- Reconstruct full snapshots directly from those maps and apply patches without
fallible arbitrary-value conversions.
- Regenerate the app-server protocol schema for the object-only representation.
GitOrigin-RevId: 3d7662b74f3dd1f3ccc5fdd0200074c13a73cbe5
## What changed
- Add fractional Unix creation times to locally authored user, developer, agent, and tool-output items when they enter durable conversation history.
- Preserve any creation time already supplied with an item across subsequent requests, remote compaction, and resumed history.
## Testing
- Cover timestamp assignment and preservation in session, client, tool, agent-spawn, and remote-compaction tests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 431d1770b9746005c808bc0a43953845166d68ad
## What changed
- Provide matching local plugin commands with a sandbox-writable temporary output file through `CODEX_PLUGIN_METRICS_OUTPUT` when analytics is enabled.
- Validate successful command output against the plugin's `analytics.yaml` declaration, including measurement names, enum dimensions, finite values, duplicate rows, and size limits, before publishing analytics events.
- Keep the output path reserved from user overrides and clean up the temporary file after execution.
## Testing
- Cover output validation, limits, cleanup, sandbox permissions, environment handling, and path replacement.
- Verify measurement collection through both classic and zsh-fork shell runtimes.
GitOrigin-RevId: 88af0f87dc2f207fcbcca6af498f5c940d79349d
## What changed
- Add `http_headers_helper` configuration for local streamable HTTP MCP servers. The configured shell command runs once per connection and returns a JSON object of headers that is cached across requests.
- Apply helper headers to MCP startup and OAuth flows while restricting them to the server origin, stopping redirects, rejecting reserved or duplicate headers, and enforcing output and execution limits.
- Reject helpers for remote or managed-disabled servers, use the local environment working directory, and redact helper commands from `codex mcp list` and `codex mcp get` output.
## Testing
- Cover configuration validation, helper lifecycle and output parsing, origin isolation, OAuth discovery and token refresh, managed requirements, environment selection, and CLI redaction.
GitOrigin-RevId: 84e0e26ce75520b0869d37c72b1678e033bd6818
## What changed
- Mark developer messages received from clients with `client_authored` harness
metadata when `retain_client_developer_messages` is enabled.
- Carry that provenance through pending input and persist it alongside rollout
response items without adding it to provider requests or the serialized
`TurnInput` payload.
- Preserve existing behavior for unannotated response items and when the
feature is disabled.
## Testing
- Cover client item injection before and during turns, additional application
context, rollout replay, image resize notices, and serialization boundaries.
GitOrigin-RevId: f385c177732becde732272e4b8440eb91f5c1039
## What changed
- Parse `node_repl_auto_review_required` and `node_repl_disabled` from model catalog entries and include their values in each turn's Responses API metadata.
- Treat both fields as reserved metadata so client-provided values cannot override the selected model's policy.
- Use the selected review model's catalog entry when building metadata for review turns.
## Testing
- Cover metadata propagation across model switches, review turns, Responses API requests, and MCP tool calls.
GitOrigin-RevId: c1f63426eeb8e559abff439fbc618716a4908aff
## Why
`parent_turn_id` identifies the immediate caller of a nested request, but not the
top-level turn that initiated a multi-level chain of work.
## What changed
- Add `root_turn_id` to turn state, submissions, and Responses API metadata.
- Propagate the root through spawned agents, delegated work, review sessions, and
turn-triggering inter-agent messages.
- Omit the root when background work has no user turn or combined input makes the
root ambiguous.
## Testing
Added coverage for nested agent resumes, reviews, mailbox delivery, steered input,
and reserved metadata handling.
GitOrigin-RevId: 60057db2ee81f4efefa946a9f63c74ff98b93929
## What changed
- Require delegated Codex sessions to use the `never` approval policy and reject
delegate creation with any prompt-capable policy.
- Stop forwarding delegate approval and permission requests to the parent
session. Approval-requiring commands and MCP tool calls are denied within the
delegate instead.
- Skip prompts for missing skill MCP dependencies when approvals are disabled.
## Testing
Add coverage for review and Guardian delegates to verify that command
escalations, MCP approvals, and skill dependency installation do not prompt or
execute approval-gated actions.
GitOrigin-RevId: fee96a97624352cd25c904592ba7eebe2ae3fd63
## What changed
- Resolve user message admission when Core accepts the input as a new turn or a steer, without waiting for rollout persistence.
- Remove persistence- and hook-specific admission errors and task bookkeeping.
- Delete queued messages after Core accepts them for turn processing, including messages subsequently stopped by a prompt hook.
## Testing
- Update concurrent admission and queue service tests for acceptance-based admission.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7dcc311cfecd3d710733b420f2add546edb86153
## What changed
- Add `ApprovedMcpPolicyAmendment` to represent MCP approvals that persist across sessions.
- Route MCP approval responses directly through the shared `ReviewDecision` type while preserving session-only approvals, rejection reasons, timeouts, and cancellations.
- Reject the MCP-only policy decision if it reaches command, shell, network, or other tool approval paths.
## Testing
- Update MCP approval parsing, normalization, hook, and Guardian tests for the shared decisions.
- Verify generic tool approvals reject MCP policy amendments.
GitOrigin-RevId: b8cc931dc61d4c794915145273ede82b9eb30fc8
## Why
Threads that share an executor environment can require different capability roots and login-shell policies. Treating readiness configuration as executor-wide can expose one thread's settings to another.
## What changed
- Add `CodexThread::environment_ready` and `EnvironmentConfig` so hosts can install capability roots and login-shell policy for an exact thread, environment, and working-directory attachment.
- Validate attachment readiness updates, merge ready attachment roots with persisted thread roots, and refresh MCP capabilities when those roots change.
- Preserve installed environment policy across thread settings updates and child-thread inheritance while resetting it when the selected working directory changes.
## Testing
- Cover attachment config inheritance and reset behavior.
- Verify that threads sharing an executor retain independent model-visible capability roots and login-shell tool schemas across updates.
GitOrigin-RevId: 60e7a296b3e41b835b0413aa2837451e8a55c230
## What changed
- Emit skill invocation analytics when a resource-backed skill is explicitly selected or its main resource is successfully read from the first page.
- Preserve provider-supplied skill IDs and user scope when available, and derive a stable ID from the main resource otherwise.
- Deduplicate repeated implicit reads of the same main resource within a turn.
## Testing
- Extend the orchestrator skill integration test to cover explicit and implicit invocation events, stable fallback IDs, failed reads, and repeated-read deduplication.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7d8453b31b5a2205847e65cda2c46183d6c97b45
## What changed
- Wrap response items with optional harness-owned metadata while keeping the persisted response payload shape backward compatible.
- Store compacted-history metadata in an aligned sidecar and reject malformed sidecars.
- Carry metadata through history normalization, compaction, resume, fork, truncation, migration, and rollout recording without sending it to model providers.
## Testing
- Cover legacy rollout compatibility, metadata serialization and validation, compaction retention, and resume/fork reconstruction.
GitOrigin-RevId: 17a6127c9048ff984cb4df4d97c0751a38c29f5f
## What changed
- Recognize validated create and edit marker commands from the trusted presentations, documents, spreadsheets, and PDF plugins.
- Emit a `codex_artifact_operation` analytics event plus started-count and expected-output-count metrics when a recognized marker starts through unified exec.
- Attribute remote executor commands only when their plugin cache path and script contents match a trusted local plugin, including primary-runtime plugins.
## Testing
- Cover supported marker combinations and reject mismatched plugins, paths, arguments, counts, and output formats.
- Cover local, relocated remote, and Windows-style plugin attribution, including rejection of modified remote scripts.
GitOrigin-RevId: 475cc1689aa7f371a24dec0a8bdb6f7fd5a2e922
## What changed
- Add `auto_review_enabled` to serialized turn metadata for regular and review turns.
- Derive the value from approval-policy routing and reserve the metadata key so client-provided metadata cannot override it.
## Testing
- Cover enabled metadata, reserved-key handling, Guardian review requests, and updated compaction request snapshots.
GitOrigin-RevId: 52773e2bf7d4be251f8466332de9f9c9869dd084
## What changed
- Add `ResponseItemEnvelope` as the history-owned wrapper for a `ResponseItem`.
- Store envelopes in `ContextManager` while keeping raw-item iteration and consuming APIs for existing callers.
- Preserve envelopes when compaction and history normalization rewrite retained items, and wrap newly synthesized items.
## Testing
- Cover envelope access, mutation, and conversion back to raw response items.
- Cover annotated history replacement and annotated user-message collection for compaction.
GitOrigin-RevId: 3fa2e7bdd981b08cc7aec410c80deccaecdabab4
## Why
Cross-platform remote `apply_patch` calls were rejected when filesystem writes
were restricted because patch verification and writes could not be safely
performed against executor files.
## What changed
- Route intercepted and direct remote patches through the executor-managed
filesystem sandbox, including the configured workspace roots.
- Select the restricted-token sandbox for Windows executor paths when no
Windows sandbox level was configured.
- Fail closed when an executor cannot enforce the requested sandbox, and treat
executor-managed access failures as sandbox denials so approval can retry the
patch without sandboxing.
## Testing
- Cover sandboxed remote patches, denied writes, approval retries, Windows
sandbox selection, and executor filesystem enforcement.
GitOrigin-RevId: caddeed0b266c456a689080a14a3a58e2bd7887c
## What changed
- Remove effective-config lockfile export, replay, and validation from session startup.
- Remove the `debug.config_lockfile` settings and generated schema entries.
- Remove feature-config materialization helpers that were only used to create lockfiles.
GitOrigin-RevId: a8c07c1c06325b3ec3dae9a97c36c2488d37df25
## What changed
- Import skill metadata and mention helpers directly from `codex-skills`.
- Import host skill loading types directly from `codex-skills-extension`.
- Make the remaining `codex-core` skills module private and remove its skill API re-exports, including the `HostSkillsService` re-export from `codex-core-api`.
GitOrigin-RevId: 26bf8fffd980df9c4d0c308d7e983ceab9a5df82
## What changed
- Add `PersistContext` to the thread-store persistence contract so stores can
identify persistence requested immediately before model sampling. A
`TurnStart` request may be enqueued in the background when later flush and
shutdown operations fence it and report any failure; all other persistence
remains synchronous.
- Use the turn-start context only for the initial input of a regular turn, while
admission acknowledgments, steered input, and other persistence paths keep
the standard durability behavior.
- Flush pending metadata before turn-start persistence and ensure shutdown is
still attempted if that metadata update fails.
## Testing
- Verify that developer instructions and user input are persisted before the
model request completes for a default paginated-history thread.
GitOrigin-RevId: 162f0ec796a61aebe66ca0b909fbcccec3047b85
## What changed
- Remove `Clone` from `Submission` and remove `Clone` and `PartialEq` from `Op`.
- Consume operations directly in the submission loop instead of cloning them.
- Limit thread-manager test capture to the operation variants under test and update assertions to compare their relevant fields.
GitOrigin-RevId: 781cc631391b8583d94dad5ca45f589856c0b21a
## What changed
- Add `responses_api_metadata` for product-owned key/value metadata included in
every Responses API turn metadata payload, including parent and subagent
requests.
- Limit the map to 16 entries, ASCII identifier keys of at most 64 bytes, and
values of at most 128 bytes. Reject reserved Codex metadata keys and ignore
this setting in project-local configuration.
- Give configured product metadata precedence over app-server client metadata
while keeping it out of metadata sent to external MCP servers.
## Testing
- Cover reserved-key validation, metadata precedence, MCP isolation, and
propagation to parent and subagent Responses API requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: a7be798294fde25145ab375a468321bb4e4a49f1
## What changed
- Add `codex-history` for model-history and persisted-rollout domain types, including `RolloutItem`, `RolloutLine`, `CompactedItem`, and initial/resumed history state.
- Re-export the persisted types from `codex-rollout` and update consumers to use the new crate boundary instead of `codex-protocol`.
- Preserve existing rollout serialization, including legacy numeric compacted-window IDs.
## Testing
- Add `codex-history` tests for rollout JSON round trips, compacted-history compatibility, persisted history modes, and multi-agent version selection.
GitOrigin-RevId: 944daa9297ddd231d3aebbdcb05fff4adf8b4e1b
## Why
Standard MCP forms can require user-entered values even when tool permissions are
otherwise auto-approved in full-access sessions.
## What changed
- Recognize the `openai/standard-form-input` client extension and surface
non-approval forms in full-access, user-initiated root threads.
- Keep approval forms, automation and subagent threads, headless sessions, and
clients without the capability on their existing decline or review paths.
- Treat the capability as client-only so it is not advertised to MCP servers,
and enable it after session startup so required servers cannot block startup
waiting for form input.
## Testing
Add unit and app-server coverage for accepted form round trips, declined cases,
approval metadata safeguards, resumed threads, and extension filtering.
GitOrigin-RevId: 053bfe397a5c79eceef90a81d13e2aca6353af43
## What changed
- Rename `EnvironmentConfig` to `TurnEnvironmentConfig` to make its scope explicit.
- Rename the corresponding `SessionConfiguration` accessor and update all call sites.
GitOrigin-RevId: f47d745566199e699bd8e7c671c313eaf3bba79e
## What changed
- Send Unix `execve` approvals intercepted by the zsh fork through the shared approval pipeline, including permission hooks, Guardian review, user prompts, and telemetry.
- Resolve the active turn and its auto-review setting when an intercepted command needs approval, so commands sent to persistent terminals use the current turn's reviewer.
- Give each intercepted command a distinct approval ID and propagate an aborted approval as a turn abort.
## Testing
- Cover Guardian review for intercepted `unified_exec` commands and persistent terminals across turns.
- Verify repeated identical intercepted commands receive separate user approvals.
GitOrigin-RevId: e6cccf160637e4246aff4714c22f08c90b65306d
## Why
A single `skills/list` request should use one view of shared skill roots across
all requested workspaces while still applying each workspace's skill rules.
## What changed
- Add a request-scoped host skills view that reuses non-plugin root snapshots
across `cwd` entries without persisting them across requests.
- Resolve user-scoped plugin skill roots once per request, then apply workspace
skill configuration separately for each `cwd`.
- Make `forceReload` refresh plugin roots before building the request-scoped
view so subsequent entries see the refreshed skills.
## Testing
Expanded `skills/list` and host skills service tests to cover multiple ordered
workspaces, per-workspace skill rules, request-local snapshots, cached results,
and forced plugin-root refreshes.
GitOrigin-RevId: eedd3a4c3e213b7f30df6cacd3adf23ba2967437
## Why
Deferred environments can become ready after a turn starts. Guardian approval
reviews must use the environment selected for the current step so their working
directory and permission context are not taken from the stale turn snapshot.
## What changed
- Carry `StepContext` through tool execution and approval handling.
- Add a Guardian review context that pairs the parent turn with the current
step's environment snapshot.
- Use that snapshot for Guardian prompts, reviewer sessions, and delegated
reviewer threads while retaining turn-level fallbacks for callers without a
step context.
## Testing
Added an integration test that makes a deferred remote environment ready before
an escalated command and verifies Guardian receives that environment's working
directory and denied-read policy instead of the initial local environment's.
GitOrigin-RevId: 779096bc7d0e0c7453a009c02141029714b9b407
## Why
Hook configurations can mark command handlers as asynchronous, but Codex previously skipped those handlers outside `SessionEnd`.
## What changed
- Run asynchronous command hooks in the background with a per-session concurrency limit, while keeping `SessionEnd` hooks synchronous.
- Prevent asynchronous hooks from blocking, stopping, rewriting, or otherwise controlling the operation that launched them.
- Deliver warnings and additional context at safe turn boundaries: inject results into an active turn after sampling, or buffer them ahead of the next user prompt when the session is idle.
- Preserve in-flight hooks across configuration reloads, scope spilled output to the thread, and abort outstanding work during session shutdown.
## Testing
Add unit and integration coverage for background scheduling, concurrency, output parsing, active and idle result delivery, configuration reloads, and shutdown cleanup.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8094552e4afe7b47b09a61bb575bb20f4e491d8d
## What changed
- Filter saved `allow` prefix rules from the execution policy for cyber-specialized models and models listed in `auto_review.ignore_rules`, while preserving prompt, forbidden, network, and host-executable policy entries.
- Apply the filtered policy consistently to permission instructions, shell commands, unified exec, and the zsh-fork backend.
- Limit cyber-model command approvals to one-time decisions without proposing reusable policy amendments. General models continue to honor saved prefixes, including after switching models within a thread.
## Testing
- Add policy-level coverage for filtering allow-prefix rules while retaining restrictive and network rules.
- Add end-to-end coverage across shell and unified exec paths, zsh-fork execution, user and automatic review, and model switching.
GitOrigin-RevId: f3bd3872424291b12354ec415f33986ec369a368
## What changed
- Add the managed `auto_review.required_on_models` requirement, unioning model slugs across requirement layers and exposing the result through `configRequirements/read`.
- Force listed models to use `on-request` approvals with the `auto_review` reviewer. Downgrade Full Access to workspace-write when starting a protected session, and reject incompatible runtime overrides or use when automatic review is disabled.
- Preserve these protections across thread starts, resumes, forks, model changes, turn overrides, MCP approvals, and TUI session attachment.
## Testing
- Add coverage for layered model requirements and exact provider-alias matching.
- Add app-server tests for protected thread lifecycle operations, unsafe setting overrides, legacy thread upgrades, disabled automatic review, and requirements API output.
GitOrigin-RevId: c4b1d52c3b5b75e86880725412b8f0812e0dfcd9
## What changed
- Add `HostSkillsSnapshot::load_skill_prompts` so the skills extension owns reading and rendering selected host skills.
- Keep explicit invocation telemetry, unreadable-skill warnings, plugin prompt ordering, and suppression of host prompts superseded by provider prompts.
- Remove the legacy prompt injection and fragment implementation from `codex-core-skills`.
## Testing
- Cover prompt truncation without an installed skills extension, skill/plugin ordering, selective provider supersession, unreadable skills, and contextual fragment detection.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9c8b84ad54b90d174abc287ab49cc5a231e9e1aa
## What changed
- Add lifecycle-backed gauges for in-flight and queued app requests, pending server requests and mailbox messages, active turns, and live MCP connections.
- Register each gauge on first use and decrement it when the tracked work or resource is dropped.
- Document the new `server/diagnostics` gauge names and account for the diagnostics request itself in the response example and test.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4bb82a3918af0b502d149b5d761ad669b2083f39
## What changed
- Classify HTTP connection failures separately from other network errors without exposing request URLs.
- For sampling requests, retry connection failures with exponential delays from 5 to 60 seconds and show a `Reconnecting... waiting for network` stream error.
- Preserve the normal stream retry budget while waiting for the provider to become reachable. Keep the existing bounded retry behavior for other retryable errors.
## Testing
- Verify connection errors are classified without leaking URL contents.
- Verify a turn recovers after its provider becomes reachable and still applies the configured retry limit to a subsequent incomplete stream.

## What changed
- Add the tool call ID to `_meta.callId` for every MCP tool request.
- Rename `features.tool_registry.include_tool_metadata` to
`features.tool_registry.turn_metadata_includes_tool_info` to clarify that the
setting controls authoritative tool information in per-turn metadata.
- Update config parsing, schema generation, and session config locking for the
renamed setting.
## Testing
- Cover `callId` metadata for custom, plugin, and Codex Apps MCP calls.
- Update strict-config, config-loading, feature-config, and config-lock tests for
the renamed setting.

## Why
Persisted base instructions need to retain whether they were explicitly customized or generated from a model template. Without that distinction, forks and config-lock replays can treat model-generated instructions as custom and keep the wrong template after a model or personality change.
## What changed
- Record custom or model provenance with base instructions in rollouts and config locks.
- Preserve custom instructions across model changes, while allowing model-generated instructions to follow the selected model and personality.
- Keep legacy rollouts without provenance compatible and propagate provenance through forks and spawned agents.
## Testing
- Cover provenance serialization and legacy rollout decoding.
- Cover role personality changes, forked model changes, config-lock replay, and multi-agent configuration.
