## What changed
- Add optional `websocketRequestId` to `environment/add` and send it as `X-Request-ID` on direct WebSocket upgrades, including reconnects. It requires a secure transport or a loopback destination.
- Echo a supplied `X-Request-ID` in the exec-server WebSocket upgrade response.
## Testing
Add coverage for `websocketRequestId` serialization and for handshake header forwarding and echoing, both with and without a request ID.

## What changed
- Accept per-environment `skills.required` lists through `environment/add` and `environments.toml`.
- Before inference, require each named skill to be enabled and supplied by the selected environment. Missing skills fail the turn before a model request, including when environment setup fails.
- Stop applying an environment's requirements after it is deselected. Exempt isolated Guardian reviewers, which have no skill catalog.
## Testing
Add tests for available, missing, disabled, and wrong-environment skills, failed environment setup, recovery after deselection, and propagation of TOML requirements to the correct environment.

## Why
App-server clients need a way to connect to executors that require bearer authentication through `environment/add` and `environments.toml`.
## What changed
- Add optional `authBearerToken` to `environment/add` and `auth_bearer_token` to URL entries in `environments.toml`.
- Send the token as an `Authorization: Bearer` header on initial connections and reconnects, without automatic refresh. Require `wss://` or a loopback destination when a token is supplied.
- Redact tokens in debug output, mark connection headers sensitive, and omit source text from TOML parse errors.
- Preserve unauthenticated behavior when tokens are omitted, including requests with a null `authBearerToken`.
## Testing
Add integration coverage for authenticated and unauthenticated executors through both RPC and TOML configuration, including missing, null, incorrect, and malformed RPC tokens. Extend tests for reconnect authorization headers, token redaction, URL-only token configuration, and timeout preservation.

## What changed
- Include `environmentInfo` in the exec-server `initialize` response and seed the Rust client's metadata cache from it.
- Fall back to one lazy `environment/info` request when connecting to older servers that omit initialization metadata, then share the cached result across client clones and session recovery.
- Keep app-server `environment/info` requests uncached so they continue to probe the executor.
## Testing
- Cover initialization metadata, the legacy-server fallback, shared caching, accepted WebSocket environments, and repeated uncached app-server probes.
GitOrigin-RevId: 380132d9db183998d73e8c6b0954e4d70c7e8406
## What changed
- Add the experimental `environment/status` request for inspecting a configured environment without starting or reconnecting it.
- Report `ready`, `pending`, `disconnected`, or `unknown`, including error details for disconnected and unknown environments.
- Probe ready remote environments over their existing exec-server connection.
## Testing
- Add an app-server integration test covering local and remote ready, pending, disconnected, and unknown environments.
GitOrigin-RevId: 397bba603aa9e0b59008ee6cb7cbde46e357652c
## Why
App-server clients that configure named execution environments need to
discover an environment's shell and working directory before selecting
it for a thread or turn. Because the environment can run on a different
operating system than app-server, its working directory is represented
as a canonical `file:` URI rather than a host-local path string. The
probe also needs a bounded response time: an exec-server that completes
initialization but never answers `environment/info` must not hold the
environment serialization queue indefinitely.
## What changed
- Add an experimental `environment/info` app-server RPC for named
environments.
- Route the probe through the managed environment connection and return
target-native shell metadata plus the default working directory as a
`PathUri`.
- Return connection and protocol failures as JSON-RPC errors.
- Bound the exec-server probe response to 30 seconds and remove
timed-out calls from the pending-request table so later environment
mutations can proceed.
- Cover successful responses, omitted working directories, unknown
environments, connection failures, and pending-call cleanup.
## Protocol examples
Request:
```json
{
"id": 42,
"method": "environment/info",
"params": {
"environmentId": "remote-a"
}
}
```
Successful response:
```json
{
"id": 42,
"result": {
"shell": {
"name": "zsh",
"path": "/bin/zsh"
},
"cwd": "file:///workspace"
}
}
```
If the exec-server initializes but does not answer the probe within 30
seconds:
```json
{
"id": 42,
"error": {
"code": -32603,
"message": "failed to get info for environment `remote-a`: exec-server protocol error: timed out waiting for exec-server `environment/info` response after 30s"
}
}
```
## Testing
- App-server integration coverage for successful info (including omitted
`cwd`), unknown environments, and connection failures.
- Exec-server RPC coverage verifying a timed-out call is removed from
the pending-request table.

## Why
Remote environments registered through `environment/add` currently use
the fixed 10-second WebSocket connection timeout. Slow-starting
executors need a caller-selected connection window, but this should not
add retry policy or couple exec-server behavior to Core’s
`deferred_executor` feature.
Make the timeout an optional part of the existing experimental request.
Existing clients continue using the current default, while callers that
know an executor may take longer can request a larger window explicitly.
Depends on #28683.
## What changed
- Add optional `connectTimeoutMs` to `EnvironmentAddParams` and document
it in the app-server README.
- Pass the optional timeout through `EnvironmentRequestProcessor` into
one `EnvironmentManager::upsert_environment()` path; the manager applies
the existing default when it is omitted.
- Preserve the existing single-attempt lifecycle. The configured value
controls WebSocket connection and handshake time for both initial
connection and later reconnects; initialization retains its separate
timeout.
- Add an app-server integration test that sends the real JSON-RPC
request and verifies a stalled handshake observes the requested timeout.
## Test plan
- `just test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
- `just test -p codex-exec-server`
- `just test -p codex-app-server
environment_add_applies_connect_timeout`
## Rollout
This is additive and does not enable `deferred_executor`. Callers should
send a non-default timeout only after a compatible app-server is
deployed; omitted or `null` values retain the existing 10-second
default.
## Summary
Support registry-backed remote executors end to end so downstream
services can resolve an executor id into an exec-server URL and make
that environment available to Codex without relying on the legacy cloud
environments flow.
## What changed
- switch remote executor registration to the executor registry bootstrap
contract
- allow named remote environments to be inserted into
`EnvironmentManager` at runtime
- add the experimental app-server RPC `environment/add` so initialized
experimental clients can register those remote environments for later
`thread/start` and `turn/start` selection
## Validation
Ran focused validation locally:
- `cargo test -p codex-exec-server environment_manager_`
- `cargo test -p codex-exec-server
register_executor_posts_with_bearer_token_header`
- `cargo test -p codex-app-server-protocol`
