## What changed
Replace duplicated model-selection fields in `GuardianReviewSessionConfig` and `GuardianReviewSessionParams` with the existing `ReviewModel` struct. Read model settings and selection metadata from that struct for session execution, analytics, and failed-review records, and update the existing test fixtures accordingly.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1da2001e68168ec40a3d726694eb5fd0445aa3d7
## What changed
Remove core guardian tests for transcript numbering and unpaired tool outputs. Extend `guardian-context` coverage to assert that named image-only tool outputs retain their source and use `[non-text output]` for both sync and async contexts, with tool calls included or excluded.
GitOrigin-RevId: ba483e8f6e335697106a987051687a12ad2fde01
## What changed
- Make `SynchronousReview` own assessment events, telemetry, warnings, evidence-recording decisions, and consecutive-denial accounting.
- Keep action preparation, stale-approval validation, evidence storage, and event publication in the host adapter.
- Extract `Session::interrupt_turn_with_warning` to apply extension-requested interruptions to the selected active turn and emit the interrupted thread-idle lifecycle event.
## Testing
Adapt session tests to verify that extension interruptions emit the thread-idle lifecycle event and survive shutdown of the calling runtime.
GitOrigin-RevId: b234ad86206fedc2434f48fc44dc57679443c69f
## What changed
- Use cancellation guards to tie reusable reviewers and temporary forks to their lifetimes, including when a review future is dropped. Replace cancelled reusable reviewers before reuse.
- Share `ReviewerTasks` between the pool and `ThreadManager`, and wait for tracked cleanup during pool shutdown. Remove the separate session shutdown protocol.
- Move denial cleanup from core task handling into Guardian's turn start, stop, and abort hooks. Expose `install_reviewer` to register both thread and turn lifecycle contributors together.
## Testing
Add an integration test that exercises stale denial cleanup at turn start, completion, and interruption, including starting another turn after interruption.
GitOrigin-RevId: 85badb235309c1e1576547d1746f7ee9fc66d545
## What changed
Represent images in `ContentItem` and `FunctionCallOutputContentItem` with `ImageReference::Inline`, flattened to preserve the existing `image_url` wire format. Update image producers and consumers and regenerate app-server schemas and SDK artifacts.
Preserve the Python SDK's `InputImageContentItem` and `InputImageFunctionCallOutputContentItem` class names during generation.
## Testing
Add a regression test for stable Python image class names and adapt existing image tests to the shared representation.
GitOrigin-RevId: c38a780ac3314c2ac2deb3afc1b93b94b6f93fec
## Why
Guardian reviews must stop when their parent shuts down or their history is reset. Shutdown must also finish reviewer cleanup before closing the parent's persistent history, including when a review is waiting to retry after a rate limit.
## What changed
- Let the Guardian extension own reviewer startup, prewarming, and shutdown through `ThreadManager`, tracking and joining outstanding work during teardown.
- Cancel reviews on history reset or parent shutdown and reject decisions returned after cancellation, including cached extension decisions.
- Keep background prewarm previews from overwriting the active turn's model metadata.
## Testing
Extend regression coverage to verify reviewer cleanup after parent shutdown, prompt shutdown during a 60-second Guardian retry with the network request denied, and preservation of active model review requirements during prewarming.
GitOrigin-RevId: 05efc369b9a1642a10365eac8a09da77f3f6e28c
## What changed
Replace `ReviewerSessionFactory` with a startup callback installed through
`ReviewerPool::new`. Review requests supply shared setup data and reuse context,
while the pool uses its callback to create both reusable and forked reviewers.
Update Guardian session setup, prewarming, and existing test fixtures to use the
new pool API.
GitOrigin-RevId: fa171503afcee8bdbdf6822573bea8ded50ce117
## Why
Inline delegates have no entry in the thread registry, so reviewer creation cannot depend on looking up the parent or waiting for its thread-ready notification.
## What changed
- Capture parent identity, authentication, shared agent control, originator, and inherited instructions in `StartThreadOptions` so `ThreadManager` can start a child without a registered parent.
- Route Guardian reviewer creation through this path, remove the standalone fallback and readiness gate, and require a Guardian extension host.
- Install explicit reviewer hosts in unit tests and the Guardian reviewer extension in the integration test harness, using `ExtensionRegistry::to_builder()` to preserve existing contributors.
## Testing
Extend the thread-manager regression test to remove the parent from the registry before starting a child, then verify inherited lineage, originator, session identity, and authentication, and exclusion from the public thread list.
GitOrigin-RevId: 468ded6fdce7520cb39d55c1a884dcfa5aaea2d9
## What changed
Add `auto_review.experimental_policy_template` to override the Guardian prompt template in `config.toml`. Trim the configured value and ignore it when empty. Prefer the override over the model catalog template, retaining the bundled template as the final fallback.
The template's `{{ tenant_policy_config }}` placeholder is replaced with the resolved Guardian policy.
## Testing
Extend tests to cover template deserialization, trimming, precedence over the catalog template, and rendered policy text in Guardian inference requests.
GitOrigin-RevId: 85b4a8fc193a42735354894203ccbd1f738a3b58
## What changed
Restrict `run_before_review_deadline_with_cancel` and its re-export to `codex-guardian-reviewer`. Move its timeout, abort, and successful-completion tests from core into the reviewer's deadline module, and remove the standalone `run_before_review_deadline` tests from core.
GitOrigin-RevId: dd9f1ed571a40a4bd66b08c88f3ee2be071f4870
## Why
Command execution and plugin measurement events lack model and reasoning-effort labels. Attribution needs to reflect the step that invoked the command, even when model settings change before a background process finishes.
## What changed
- Add `model_slug` and `reasoning_effort` to command execution and plugin measurement analytics.
- Capture model context from resolved step settings and carry it through execution, approval, Guardian review, and plugin metrics collection.
- Preserve the first command-start model context when subsequent start notifications arrive.
- Keep the carried context out of serialized protocol items and generated schemas.
## Testing
Extend analytics tests to cover model switches before invocation and during background execution, default reasoning effort, Guardian-denied commands, and repeated start notifications retaining the original model context.
GitOrigin-RevId: af90e1c0d39bab625f2e89786085b61a9b96c0ce
## Why
Running code-mode cells can request Guardian review while the next response is in flight. Clearing the response ID before that response emits `response.created` leaves those reviews without a `parent_response_id`.
## What changed
Keep the latest response ID received in the turn until a later `response.created` replaces it, including across sampling retries.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for reviews before and after a response handoff and for a fresh turn that must not inherit the previous turn's ID. Update retry coverage to expect the last known parent when the retry supplies no response ID.
GitOrigin-RevId: af0a08de09edad59e1a7ade7904a42d616b05679
## What changed
Add `ConversationState` and `ConversationCheckpoint` to `codex-guardian-reviewer` and use them in core review sessions to track transcript cursors, completed review counts, and committed snapshots. Keep history and admitted evidence host-owned.
Preserve the separation between live review progress and committed checkpoints so forks inherit the history, cursor, and review count from the last committed snapshot.
## Testing
Add a unit test verifying that forks retain committed history and progress after an uncommitted review, then advance when the next snapshot is committed.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9f92410b11beec6b8f413c4c922fabba65852399
## What changed
Move full/delta transcript selection into the shared `TranscriptMode::select` API and use it when building guardian prompts. Export `TranscriptCursor`, `TranscriptMode`, and `TranscriptSelection` from `codex-guardian-context`.
Preserve full-transcript fallback when the history version changes or the saved cursor exceeds the collected entry count. Select entries before profile retention, preserving their numbering and returning a proposed cursor that counts all collected entries. Hosts remain responsible for committing and invalidating cursors.
## Testing
Add a regression test verifying that sliding-window retention preserves the collected-entry cursor and that an appended entry is selected and numbered correctly in the next delta.
GitOrigin-RevId: a2192c08e23c18302b0105ba47aeb2780eb4a015
## Why
A summary-free parent context reset could reuse a Guardian review session and carry forward rationale from before the reset.
## What changed
Track destructive history replacements with `reset_version` and include it in the Guardian session reuse key. Ordinary input and compaction preserve this version.
## Testing
Update the review-session reuse test to require a new Guardian thread after a summary-free reset, with no prior review context or previous rationale.
GitOrigin-RevId: bd05c149774839f68b75294751f7619ba7ce0bfe
## Why
Model and reasoning effort updates during a turn can leave request metadata and tool hooks reporting the turn's initial settings. Metadata should describe the step that issued the request or tool call.
## What changed
- Share captured execution metadata across Responses, MCP, and extension tool calls, including model, reasoning effort, and automatic review and Node REPL flags.
- Build Responses tool inventory metadata from the issuing step's finalized tool router. Attach the finalized inventory separately for remote compaction.
- Use captured step settings for pre- and post-tool hooks, and captured review settings for permission-request hooks.
## Testing
Add and extend regression tests for model and effort changes during a turn, MCP metadata, pre-tool hook model attribution, captured review flags, and tool inventory matching the issuing request.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9dee46a8b4839de8b434cdad4ed441cc0bb6ff9b
## What changed
- Use the same text rendering for model instructions in request settings and Responses Lite developer content.
- Make `rewrite_known_segments` emit plain tags for recognized guidance, including collaboration and multi-agent instructions. Check message roles and complete tag boundaries so lookalike user or tool content stays visible, and retain generated compaction summaries.
- Normalize working-directory, workspace-root, and temporary paths in permission guidance while preserving policy differences.
- Separate text clipping from normalization and retain eight lines at each end of long sections, with fingerprints for omitted content. Update affected snapshots.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for instruction rendering across transports, literal and rewritten guidance, malformed and lookalike tags, compaction summary preservation, and permission path normalization that keeps policy changes detectable.
GitOrigin-RevId: 33b052911323c73b0387d650478f9cc3370fd001
## What changed
- Use one renderer for captured requests, raw request bodies, and input items. Show only appended items when inputs extend the previous request and settings match; start a new snapshot window otherwise and explain the boundary.
- Add optional request settings and tool inventory deltas. Normalize volatile values with stable labels, preserve multiline content, and fingerprint omitted content so changes remain visible.
- Migrate existing context snapshots and expand compaction snapshots to include request history.
## Testing
Add focused tests for window boundaries, cache key changes, tool deltas, shared item rendering, stable normalization, and fingerprints. Assert that the follow-up request after pre-turn compaction includes the working directory override.
GitOrigin-RevId: 6445b014081208ea432b1f3e2ac835c5e4955cb0
## Why
A code-mode cell can outlive its turn. Nested tool calls dispatched during a later turn need the original step's tools and context, while approval handling must still work across that turn boundary.
## What changed
- Retain each cell's originating `StepContext` for nested tool dispatch and cancel queued calls whose context has been released.
- Keep MCP approval metadata available for the lifetime of the running invocation, keyed by server and call ID.
- Apply Guardian denial accounting and interruption to the active turn, including reviews from an earlier cell.
- Carry `turn_id` in legacy MCP begin/end events so history reconstruction and rollout migration assign late completions to their original turn. Preserve the current-turn fallback for older records without it.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for originating tool selection across turns, callback and metadata cleanup, delayed MCP elicitation review, Guardian interruption of the active turn, and late MCP completion attribution with legacy compatibility.
GitOrigin-RevId: 4533379aae6e4ecb4aabe5a25e4aca5d65385d76
## What changed
- Expose `ThreadInstructionsProvider` through `StartThreadOptions`. Load its snapshot at startup and model-request boundaries, composing it after global instructions and before repository instructions. Empty or blank output clears only the thread contribution.
- Reject thread instructions exceeding 10,000 estimated tokens independently of the repository instruction budget. Allow host-provided instructions without a filesystem source and rename the shared future type to `LoadInstructionsFuture`.
- Retain the provider across warm resumes; require hosts to supply it again for cold resumes and offline forks. Live forks and subagents inherit applied snapshots without inheriting the source thread's provider, including when the parent is unloaded during setup or reload.
- Include thread instructions in guardian reviewer inheritance and reuse decisions.
## Testing
Add coverage for composition and clearing, refresh within an active turn, size rejection before sampling, cancellation-safe refresh, fork and resume behavior, parent eviction, and reviewer reuse invalidation.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7be9a523cbbfd67704067dfd526188dad89a3c88
## Why
Running root threads retained their startup global instructions, so edits to global `AGENTS.md` files did not take effect during an active session.
## What changed
- Reload global instructions when capturing model-request context, including after tools within the same turn. Apply changes without repeating unchanged instructions or rediscovering repository instructions when the environment and trust level are unchanged.
- Preserve the last successful global instructions on read failures, suppress recurring warnings until recovery, and clear instructions when their source is removed or blank.
- Serialize refreshes and allow cancellation without blocking subsequent requests.
- Give new subagents the parent's applied instruction snapshot and update Guardian reviewer reuse to account for refreshed instructions.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for live edits and removal, read failures and recovery, warning suppression, cancellation, subagent inheritance, and Guardian reviewer reuse. Update resume, fork, and compaction tests to verify refreshed instructions.
GitOrigin-RevId: f7e9b399740fa4f45e482c070f6e901ee7cf85cd
## Why
Background commands can outlive their launching turn. Their network reviews need the original execution environment even when current turn settings change, and pending reviews must stop when the execution is cancelled.
## What changed
- Capture the execution's environment snapshot for Guardian network reviews while continuing to use current review settings.
- Deny requests from already cancelled executions before checking session host grants, and resolve pending approvals as denied when execution cancellation interrupts review.
- Preserve accepted review results and session grants when cancellation happens after acceptance.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for same-turn and later-turn settings changes, the original review working directory, cancellation before and after review acceptance, late callbacks, background process termination, and reuse of accepted session grants by new executions.
GitOrigin-RevId: 29487488da9ab43700ba6684c61eea86f30a03a8
## Why
Model changes during a turn and catalog refreshes can leave Guardian reviews using settings or metadata that do not match the action being reviewed.
## What changed
- Use the action's captured model, reasoning effort, reasoning summary, and personality when configuring reviews.
- Preserve captured model metadata when falling back to the parent model, while resolving a separate reviewer against the current catalog on each attempt.
- Evaluate live managed review requirements against the action's model and use its metadata for computer-use review behavior.
- Include personality in the review session reuse key so personality changes invalidate cached sessions.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for delayed and new actions across model changes and catalog refreshes, required-review routing, and session reuse when policy or personality changes. Extend integration tests to cover reviewer reuse across parent model changes and verify that interrupted reviews cannot execute commands after a delayed approval arrives.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5b434568e113e44bf7177780f2ae13192b55e942
## Why
Transcript limits could shorten user instructions or omit later messages before Guardian evaluated the complete request budget, losing restrictions or prior approvals even when they would fit.
## What changed
- Keep user messages and manual approvals complete and in source order through transcript collection and retention.
- Preserve historical instructions while synchronous review can still compact history. If the final request still cannot fit, discard optional evidence before shortening older historical entries with truncation markers, preserving later restrictions where possible.
- Warn that shortened instructions and approvals are incomplete and that missing evidence does not authorize actions.
- Let asynchronous review defer to synchronous review when complete instructions exceed its budget.
## Testing
Add coverage for complete instruction retention, approval and restriction ordering, marked truncation of oversized Unicode text, compaction before truncation, and asynchronous fallback when instructions do not fit.
GitOrigin-RevId: e6159e876231347986b937ee7e07f944b83bfbe6
## Why
Truncating action arguments can leave approval reviewers evaluating incomplete actions. Large actions need complete review input and explicit handling when they exceed the review budget.
## What changed
- Remove action truncation and the fixed synchronous action byte limit. Admit complete actions against the whole-request budget, splitting long text losslessly into bounded transport parts and accounting for their framing.
- Route actions exceeding the asynchronous action budget to synchronous review. Prevent cached scores from covering oversized calls, including expanded approval arguments, while allowing later small actions to recover score reuse.
- Request user approval when optional review exhausts its local input budget. Keep required review and compaction service failures closed to approval, and retire exhausted review sessions.
## Testing
Add coverage for complete large-action delivery, optional user fallback, required-review denial, subsequent review recovery, async overflow through MCP approval routing, and lossless text splitting with budget accounting.
GitOrigin-RevId: 08f06e68a94b2f779480dd6b6cf5bc30b241f6dd
## What changed
- Move assessment event construction, metrics, and analytics tracking into `codex-guardian-reviewer` through `ReviewReport`.
- Store denial accounting in thread extension data through `ReviewDenials`, with core retaining turn interruption and lifecycle cleanup.
- Move failed-review record selection and bounded serialization into the extension, with core supplying captured review context.
## Testing
Add coverage that denial accounting clears on turn completion and interruption. Move the oversized-record test into the extension and exercise the new API.
GitOrigin-RevId: 6e5b3d9d4128b356f99b1d0e74a68111e40261ab
## What changed
- Move reviewer configuration overrides, turn request construction, and deadline, cancellation, and completion handling into `codex-guardian-reviewer`.
- Adapt core sessions through `ReviewerRuntime`, keeping context construction, managed constraints, and live network rules in core.
- Make `GuardianReviewSession` crate-private and remove direct reviewer pool initialization and the reviewer dependency from `guardian-v2`.
## Testing
Update the turn-draining test to exercise `wait_for_guardian_review`, checking that prior-turn completion events are ignored and the session remains reusable after draining the current turn.
GitOrigin-RevId: fdf2b335b88b3f405d2370298ee68932808e1186
## Why
Session isolation relied on Guardian source attribution. An explicit policy lets callers control inherited capabilities independently of how a session is attributed.
## What changed
- Add `SessionIsolation` with default `Inherit` and opt-in `Isolated` modes, captured at session startup through `ExtensionDataInit`.
- Use the policy to control inherited instructions, extensions, execution rules, and MCP resources. Isolated sessions retain managed execution rules and omit executor-discovered MCP servers.
- Explicitly isolate Guardian reviewers while preserving source-based fallback for older callers and saved reviewers.
## Testing
Extend delegate tests to cover isolation independently of attribution, update execution-policy coverage to supply the explicit policy, and assert that managed reviewers do not inherit the parent's configured MCP tools.
GitOrigin-RevId: f0ab42fa2f0237860ec661e72693ab191216afbf
## Why
MCP tool and connector descriptions were included in required action JSON, consuming review input budget even though they are optional metadata.
## What changed
Move `tool_description` and `connector_description` into an optional, explicitly untrusted `guardian_tool_descriptions` fragment. Limit each description to 400 estimated tokens, escape closing tags, and allow budget enforcement to omit the fragment while retaining the required action JSON. Preserve nested arguments such as `arguments.description` and mention tool descriptions in the budget omission notice.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for oversized descriptions, escaped closing markers, and budget eviction without changing action arguments. Update MCP approval and elicitation tests to verify descriptions appear separately from the action JSON.
GitOrigin-RevId: 30734567c2ebc4b180110276c83d79ddb315ceab
## Why
Transient rate limits can end automatic approval reviews prematurely, and review failures currently report high risk even when no assessment completed.
## What changed
- Retry rate limits and recoverable exhausted-stream errors, while excluding non-transient HTTP failures.
- Preserve server retry delays after stream retries are exhausted and honor them within the review deadline. Scope retry advice to the current turn so reused sessions cannot apply stale delays.
- Keep failed reviews denied, but leave risk and authorization unset and explain that the review could not complete without declaring the action unsafe.
## Testing
Add an integration test covering rate-limit recovery through approval and tool execution, asserting that the action executes exactly once after approval. Update failure assertions to check absent assessment fields and the review-failure explanation.
GitOrigin-RevId: 1163cfde35c6b8eb23b6f24f1f24461b86ded838
## What changed
Replace full additional permission profiles with network-only metadata in Guardian reviewed actions, and remove the `program` field from `execve` analytics. Preserve absent and empty permission requests and the optional `network.enabled` value.
## Testing
Add serialization tests for enabled and disabled network permissions, absent and empty permission requests, and an unset network permission value.
GitOrigin-RevId: 9904e5f5bd6723d0c09fb423b4818cb8bf12d397
## What changed
Populate `turn_trigger` in request metadata with `guardian_review` for guardian reviews, `guardian_classifier` for classifier requests, and `memory_consolidation` for both detached memory requests and consolidation agent turns.
## Testing
Extend request metadata assertions to cover each trigger across guardian reviews, classifier requests, and both memory startup phases.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2dc3c173ede6563b942b8099ad9901c32967b969
## Why
Review evidence can fit its own limits while exceeding the reviewer context window once history, tools, output format, and reminders are included. Tool continuations can also push an existing review over budget.
## What changed
- Select evidence after tools and turn context are resolved, reserving request overhead and a 256-token margin. Omit optional evidence while preserving required sections, and reject required evidence that cannot fit.
- Keep incoming evidence pending until budget selection succeeds so cancellation and compaction cannot record unselected input in reusable history.
- Check the assembled prompt before sampling, including retries and tool continuations. Retry budget failures with summary compaction once per model step, and retire reviewers whose budgets remain exhausted. Avoid history-resetting token-budget compaction for this recovery.
- Record section costs after budget selection.
## Testing
Add unit and integration coverage for required-evidence rejection, optional-evidence omission, reminder overhead, cancellation safety, incoming-review and tool-continuation compaction, and reviewer retirement after ineffective compaction.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2f7ef191b3f46032d295ad363eb7debf9d7a9684
## What changed
Move the synchronous review loop, outcome mapping, deadline helpers, and session pool into `codex-guardian-reviewer`. Core supplies adapters for evidence capture, authorization checks, session creation, and event publication through the new host interfaces.
Have `guardian-v2` initialize the reviewer pool and host separately, with the pool managing prewarming, session reuse, concurrent forks, invalidation, and shutdown.
## Testing
Extend the app-server reviewer lifecycle test to cover interrupted concurrent reviews as well as completed reviews, including resuming a reviewer after parent shutdown. Adapt core reviewer tests to use the pool and factory interfaces.
GitOrigin-RevId: 2d69bd20c169b20534764b98cbdb63f38564a530
## Why
History recording used the model captured at turn start, so switching models within a turn could apply stale image preparation and tool-output truncation rules.
## What changed
Pass explicit model metadata through conversation recording. Record model responses and tool results using their originating step's settings, and capture the current model for pending input recorded during startup interruption or task completion.
## Testing
Add regression coverage for tool results across a model switch, explicit model selection for plain and annotated history, and image input retained during interruption and completion. Extend model-switching tests to verify that prepared media and item identity survive switching back to a multimodal model in live, resumed, and forked threads.
GitOrigin-RevId: 5bc750c30c334acb9b802cb80fdea01daffa84a1
## What changed
Move assessment parsing and schema, model selection, review outcomes, retry handling, and rejection circuit breakers into `codex-guardian-reviewer`. Update core to use the extracted APIs while retaining session execution and decision enforcement in the host.
## Testing
Move existing assessment, circuit breaker, and retry tests into the new crate, including coverage for transient errors, cancellation, and deadlines.
GitOrigin-RevId: 96ec9989a0066acb012bf3bec0b9f7d8bf11a4ef
## Why
Guardian request and section cost distributions need shared bucket boundaries across synchronous and asynchronous reviewers so their measurements align.
## What changed
- Add `histogram_with_boundaries` to session telemetry and extension metrics while preserving session attribution.
- Use shared request-token buckets up to 2,000,000 tokens and section-cost buckets up to 16,777,216 for both review paths.
## Testing
Extend telemetry tests to verify explicit bucket boundaries and sample counts, and Guardian integration coverage to check exported request and section metric bounds for both synchronous and asynchronous reviews.
GitOrigin-RevId: e34f6972b3418bac3b061939b62eeeccaec5a299
## What changed
Add `ComposedContext::enforce_budget` to fit evidence within the input token allowance after reserving existing context. Preserve required content and message boundaries, reserve an omission notice, and return an error if required evidence cannot fit.
Carry retention policies through transcript rendering and composition. Protect user messages, protected messages, and the newest five tool entries. Remove oversized optional items first, then evict commentary, older tool evidence, and images in priority order. Add image admission support and record omitted content in truncation observations.
## Testing
Add tests for existing-context reservations, required-message preservation, image omission, framing costs, and protection of the newest five tool entries in both context profiles.
GitOrigin-RevId: 8a0f245bad82f562323b4533442385ddbcb6e541
## What changed
- Record per-section text bytes, estimated text tokens, image bytes, and image counts for synchronous reviews and asynchronous scoring without logging evidence payloads.
- Emit estimated request tokens through `codex.guardian.context.request_tokens`. Synchronous estimates include assembled history, instructions, tool definitions, and output format, and measure the full logical request before WebSocket delta generation. Asynchronous estimates cover the assembled input.
- Add shared context budgeting helpers, including conservative image token reservations independent of encoded payload size and model-aware input limit calculation.
## Testing
Add coverage for separate text and image accounting, image estimates independent of encoded size, and section estimates that bound delivered messages. Extend asynchronous scorer and app-server tests to verify cost metric emission.
GitOrigin-RevId: aed45ecd9c23706f88caa51f2a4f2c77872d3bdb
## What changed
Increase `GUARDIAN_MAX_ACTION_BYTES` from 8,000 to 200,000 bytes to allow larger actions to be reviewed. Keep unified exec stdin approvals capped at 8,000 bytes with a separate `MAX_STDIN_APPROVAL_BYTES` constant.
## Testing
Update aggregate payload rejection coverage for the new limit and exercise MCP elicitation reviews with tool descriptions exceeding the previous 8,000-byte limit.
GitOrigin-RevId: fd4b97980803a7a687449043931e6f1e57e260d3
## Why
Guardian reviewers can inherit token-budget mode from the parent session or model defaults, causing context rollover instead of summary-based compaction.
## What changed
Clear inherited token-budget startup activation, set an explicit default `TokenBudgetConfig`, and disable `Feature::TokenBudget` and `Feature::ContextManagement` for Guardian review sessions.
## Testing
Update regression coverage to verify that reviewers compact with a summary even when the parent and model enable token budgets. Cover both transcript modes and browser evidence, checking that review requests omit `token_budget.context_window` and retain the compaction summary.
GitOrigin-RevId: e1a84f9c7752a712399cd749c3834b2a7bb4a7e6
## What changed
Add `ContextProfile` to `codex-guardian-context` and route synchronous and asynchronous Guardian transcript rendering through it. Move default limits, retention, formatting, and async chunked eviction into the shared crate while preserving the distinct retention policies and host-managed full/delta cursors.
Carry transcript truncation observations through `RenderedTranscript` into context composition, and derive async image collection flags from the resolved profile.
## Testing
Add a profile regression test covering distinct sync/async retention priorities, original entry numbering, omission notes, and async truncation observations. Adapt existing transcript tests to the updated input API.
GitOrigin-RevId: 7f7dc249629d8017e9547085f6617f815ae43a1b
## Why
Synchronous approval reviews and asynchronous scoring assemble Guardian evidence separately, duplicating transcript framing and section placement.
## What changed
- Move evidence ordering, framing, and delivery into `codex-guardian-context`, while keeping transcript retention, budgets, and delta cursors with their callers.
- Pass composed messages directly to the asynchronous sampler, preserving roles, annotations, trusted message boundaries, and image placement.
- Reject unsupported synchronous delivery with `SectionError::UnsupportedDelivery` instead of silently dropping content.
## Testing
Add composition coverage for preserving separate messages and rejecting them for synchronous delivery. Extend Guardian integration coverage to check trusted tool and skill messages, mixed text and image evidence ordering, and full and delta review framing.
GitOrigin-RevId: efc06695ee4e2b7400b123b77ef2a21c8bf40646
## What changed
Move completed REPL response rendering into `codex-guardian-context` and register a synchronous-only `NodeReplEvidence` section. Core supplies a borrowed view of its evidence snapshot and retains responsibility for capture, storage eviction, and the delivery cursor.
Preserve the existing text and multimodal layouts, rendering bounds, omission markers, image ordering, and deduplication. Exclude evidence payloads from the rendered section's debug output.
## Testing
Adapt the existing evidence tests to exercise the shared renderer. Extend registry coverage to verify synchronous-only inclusion, rendered content, and omission of evidence payloads from debug output.
GitOrigin-RevId: eb181870558a7f2f77270dee7c17d36700f3e148
## What changed
Move bounded transcript image collection into `codex-guardian-context` and expose it through an optional `TranscriptImages` section. Update the async scorer to consume this section, preserving source filtering, image detail, omission accounting, and the existing limits of four images and 8 MiB of image URL data.
## Testing
Add coverage for source order, tool-output filtering, disabled image collection, oldest-image eviction, oversized images, and omitted-byte accounting.

## What changed
Move trusted skill rendering into `codex-guardian-context` as `TrustedSkills` and collect it through an async-only context section. Pass the collected section to the sampler, preserving the separate developer message and bounded JSON rendering. Omit skill paths from `Debug` output, exposing only their count.
## Testing
Move rendering tests alongside the shared type, covering multiple paths and escaped UTF-8 within the size budget. Extend registry tests to cover async-only inclusion, omission for empty input, section ordering, and path redaction in debug output.

## What changed
Represent host-verified tool metadata as `TrustedTool` in `codex-guardian-context` and collect it through an async-only context section. Route Guardian v2 sampling through that section while preserving separate developer-message delivery and the 512-token rendering budget. Omit tool metadata from debug output.
## Testing
Move the rendering-budget test into the shared crate, extend registry coverage for async-only collection and debug redaction, and narrow the scoped approval test to messages tagged `guardian.trusted_tool`.

## What changed
Move prior-review rendering and developer-message construction into `codex_guardian_context`, and route async scorer evidence through a dedicated `PreviousReviews` context section.
Validate a maximum of eight review fragments and a per-fragment byte budget equivalent to 1,000 approximate tokens. Reject oversized evidence without rewriting or dropping records, and fail closed when validation fails. Preserve authorization-version filtering and the existing developer-role delivery. Keep review contents out of debug output.
## Testing
Add coverage for count and UTF-8 byte-size boundaries, preservation of accepted fragments, async-only section delivery, and omission of review contents from debug output.

## What changed
- Store the shared `GuardianReviewSessionManager` in thread extension data and let the Guardian extension spawn and fork reviewers through `ThreadManager`, independently of async scorer startup.
- Preserve reviewer reuse, concurrent forks, cancellation, inherited environments, and user instructions. Gate managed reviewer startup on parent registration and remove terminated reviewers from the manager.
- Retain the `guardian` subagent identity in saved conversations. Reject resume of live Guardian reviewers and reject client archive or delete of live owner-managed workers with JSON-RPC error `-32600`; allow normal access after the owner releases them.
- Keep standalone reviewer support for inline delegates and remove duplicated extension prompt and configuration code.
## Testing
Add app-server tests covering reviewer reuse and concurrent forks, inherited instructions and prompt cache keys, live resume and removal rejection, saved reviewer discovery and resume after parent shutdown, and strict Guardian assessment inside an inline review.

## What changed
Represent denied read paths and globs with `PermissionContext` and render them through a sync-only section in `codex-guardian-context`. Keep policy resolution in the host and preserve the existing permission warning in Guardian review prompts.
## Testing
Extend registry tests to verify permission sections appear only for synchronous reviews. Extend the session reuse test to check that resolved denied paths and globs appear in both the initial review request and the next review's delta.
