## Summary
- Replace the “Hard interaction rule” with a clearer “Response
constraints” section that enumerates the allowed exceptions for Plan
Mode replies.
- Remove the stray Phase 1 exception line about simple questions.
- Update plan content requirements to ask for a brief summary section
and generalize API/type wording.
Summary
- expose websocket telemetry hooks through the responses client so
request durations and event processing can be reported
- record websocket request/event metrics and emit runtime telemetry
events that the history UI now surfaces
- improve tests to cover websocket telemetry reporting and guard runtime

Summary
- require `CODEX_HOME` to point to an existing directory before
canonicalizing and surface clear errors otherwise
- share the same helper logic in both `core` and `rmcp-client` and add
unit tests that cover missing, non-directory, valid, and default paths
This addresses #9222
seeing issues with azure after default-enabling web search: #10071,
#10257.
need to work with azure to fix api-side, for now turning off
default-enable of web_search for azure.
diff is big because i moved logic to reuse
Fixes#9559.
When `shell_snapshot` runs, it may execute user startup files (e.g.
`.bashrc`). If those files read from stdin (or if stdin is an
interactive TTY under job control), the snapshot subprocess can block or
receive `SIGTTIN` (as reported over SSH).
This change explicitly sets `stdin` to `Stdio::null()` for the snapshot
subprocess, so it can't read from the terminal.
Regression test added that would hang/timeout without this change.
Tests: `ulimit -n 4096 && cargo test -p codex-core`.

Summary:
- Fixes issue #9932: https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/9932
- Prevents `$CODEX_HOME` (typically `~/.codex`) from being discovered as
a project `.codex` layer by skipping it during project layer traversal.
We compare both normalized absolute paths and best-effort canonicalized
paths to handle symlinks.
- Adds regression tests for home-directory invocation and for the case
where `CODEX_HOME` points to a project `.codex` directory (e.g.,
worktrees/editor integrations).
Testing:
- `cargo build -p codex-cli --bin codex`
- `cargo build -p codex-rmcp-client --bin test_stdio_server`
- `cargo test -p codex-core`
- `cargo test --all-features`
- Manual: ran `target/debug/codex` from `~` and confirmed the
disabled-folder warning and trust prompt no longer appear.

When using ChatGPT in names of types, we should be consistent, so this
renames some types with `ChatGpt` in the name to `Chatgpt`. From
https://rust-lang.github.io/api-guidelines/naming.html:
> In `UpperCamelCase`, acronyms and contractions of compound words count
as one word: use `Uuid` rather than `UUID`, `Usize` rather than `USize`
or `Stdin` rather than `StdIn`. In `snake_case`, acronyms and
contractions are lower-cased: `is_xid_start`.
This PR updates existing uses of `ChatGpt` and changes them to
`Chatgpt`. Though in all cases where it could affect the wire format, I
visually inspected that we don't change anything there. That said, this
_will_ change the codegen because it will affect the spelling of type
names.
For example, this renames `AuthMode::ChatGPT` to `AuthMode::Chatgpt` in
`app-server-protocol`, but the wire format is still `"chatgpt"`.
This PR also updates a number of types in `codex-rs/core/src/auth.rs`.
## Summary
- Stream proposed plans in Plan Mode using `<proposed_plan>` tags parsed
in core, emitting plan deltas plus a plan `ThreadItem`, while stripping
tags from normal assistant output.
- Persist plan items and rebuild them on resume so proposed plans show
in thread history.
- Wire plan items/deltas through app-server protocol v2 and render a
dedicated proposed-plan view in the TUI, including the “Implement this
plan?” prompt only when a plan item is present.
## Changes
### Core (`codex-rs/core`)
- Added a generic, line-based tag parser that buffers each line until it
can disprove a tag prefix; implements auto-close on `finish()` for
unterminated tags. `codex-rs/core/src/tagged_block_parser.rs`
- Refactored proposed plan parsing to wrap the generic parser.
`codex-rs/core/src/proposed_plan_parser.rs`
- In plan mode, stream assistant deltas as:
- **Normal text** → `AgentMessageContentDelta`
- **Plan text** → `PlanDelta` + `TurnItem::Plan` start/completion
(`codex-rs/core/src/codex.rs`)
- Final plan item content is derived from the completed assistant
message (authoritative), not necessarily the concatenated deltas.
- Strips `<proposed_plan>` blocks from assistant text in plan mode so
tags don’t appear in normal messages.
(`codex-rs/core/src/stream_events_utils.rs`)
- Persist `ItemCompleted` events only for plan items for rollout replay.
(`codex-rs/core/src/rollout/policy.rs`)
- Guard `update_plan` tool in Plan Mode with a clear error message.
(`codex-rs/core/src/tools/handlers/plan.rs`)
- Updated Plan Mode prompt to:
- keep `<proposed_plan>` out of non-final reasoning/preambles
- require exact tag formatting
- allow only one `<proposed_plan>` block per turn
(`codex-rs/core/templates/collaboration_mode/plan.md`)
### Protocol / App-server protocol
- Added `TurnItem::Plan` and `PlanDeltaEvent` to core protocol items.
(`codex-rs/protocol/src/items.rs`, `codex-rs/protocol/src/protocol.rs`)
- Added v2 `ThreadItem::Plan` and `PlanDeltaNotification` with
EXPERIMENTAL markers and note that deltas may not match the final plan
item. (`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2.rs`)
- Added plan delta route in app-server protocol common mapping.
(`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/common.rs`)
- Rebuild plan items from persisted `ItemCompleted` events on resume.
(`codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/thread_history.rs`)
### App-server
- Forward plan deltas to v2 clients and map core plan items to v2 plan
items. (`codex-rs/app-server/src/bespoke_event_handling.rs`,
`codex-rs/app-server/src/codex_message_processor.rs`)
- Added v2 plan item tests.
(`codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/plan_item.rs`)
### TUI
- Added a dedicated proposed plan history cell with special background
and padding, and moved “• Proposed Plan” outside the highlighted block.
(`codex-rs/tui/src/history_cell.rs`, `codex-rs/tui/src/style.rs`)
- Only show “Implement this plan?” when a plan item exists.
(`codex-rs/tui/src/chatwidget.rs`,
`codex-rs/tui/src/chatwidget/tests.rs`)

/>
### Docs / Misc
- Updated protocol docs to mention plan deltas.
(`codex-rs/docs/protocol_v1.md`)
- Minor plumbing updates in exec/debug clients to tolerate plan deltas.
(`codex-rs/debug-client/src/reader.rs`, `codex-rs/exec/...`)
## Tests
- Added core integration tests:
- Plan mode strips plan from agent messages.
- Missing `</proposed_plan>` closes at end-of-message.
(`codex-rs/core/tests/suite/items.rs`)
- Added unit tests for generic tag parser (prefix buffering, non-tag
lines, auto-close). (`codex-rs/core/src/tagged_block_parser.rs`)
- Existing app-server plan item tests in v2.
(`codex-rs/app-server/tests/suite/v2/plan_item.rs`)
## Notes / Behavior
- Plan output no longer appears in standard assistant text in Plan Mode;
it streams via `PlanDelta` and completes as a `TurnItem::Plan`.
- The final plan item content is authoritative and may diverge from
streamed deltas (documented as experimental).
- Reasoning summaries are not filtered; prompt instructs the model not
to include `<proposed_plan>` outside the final plan message.

## Summary
- Tightens Plan Mode to encourage exploration-first behavior and more
back-and-forth alignment.
- Adds a required TL;DR checkpoint before drafting the full plan.
- Clarifies client behavior that can cause premature “Implement this
plan?” prompts.
## What changed
- Require at least one targeted non-mutating exploration pass before the
first user question.
- Insert a TL;DR checkpoint between Phase 2 (intent) and Phase 3
(implementation).
- TL;DR checkpoint guidance:
- Label: “Proposed Plan (TL;DR)”
- Format: 3–5 bullets using `- `
- Options: exactly one option, “Approve”
- `isOther: true`, with explicit guidance that “None of the above” is
the edit path in the current UI.
- Require the final plan to include a TL;DR consistent with the approved
checkpoint.
## Why
- In Plan Mode, any normal assistant message at turn completion is
treated as plan content by the client. This can trigger premature
“Implement this plan?” prompts.
- The TL;DR checkpoint aligns on direction before Codex drafts a long,
decision-complete plan.
## Testing
- Manual: built the local CLI and verified the flow now explores first,
presents a TL;DR checkpoint, and only drafts the full plan after
approval.

`requirements.toml` should be able to specify rules which always run.
My intention here was that these rules could only ever be restrictive,
which means the decision can be "prompt" or "forbidden" but never
"allow". A requirement of "you must always allow this command" didn't
make sense to me, but happy to be gaveled otherwise.
Rules already applies the most restrictive decision, so we can safely
merge these with rules found in other config folders.
